Siheyuan: I can integrate everything!

Wan Xingbang went to visit Director Yang with a bicycle.

"Xingbang, is this really the bicycle you designed? You've actually made a real one?"

“And the entity can be produced at such a fast speed?”

Director Yang was filled with surprise.

I thought I would have to wait some time.

Indeed, Director, please come and experience this new bicycle. This bicycle is different from ordinary bicycles in terms of both design concept and materials used.

Wan Xingbang handed the bicycle to the factory manager with a smile and said, "Please take a look and see if you are satisfied!"

"Huh? Why is this bike so light?"

The factory manager was quite surprised when he received the bicycle. Bicycles produced in the 1960s were limited by the strength of steel materials. In order to ensure stability, a large amount of steel was used, resulting in a generally heavy weight, usually more than to kilograms. It was rare to see products lighter than this. However, this bicycle, which was manually adjusted, weighed only more than kilograms.

Compared with the common large bicycles on the market, the weight is reduced by at least 50%.

Director, are you worried about quality issues?

I used carbon fiber to replace part of the steel in this bicycle. I have done experiments and found that its strength is not inferior to steel. But the only disadvantage is that it is expensive! If it is made of traditional steel structural materials, the price is about 200 yuan; but if it is made of this carbon fiber version, the price will be at least 600 yuan.

Then Wan Xingbang continued to explain in detail.

Director Yang then experienced a short distance and felt that the overall riding experience was very good.

The bike can also adjust its speed according to the driving conditions, and the weight of the whole machine is relatively light, which greatly reduces the physical burden required by the user. Especially when encountering complex road conditions, it can save many times more effort than other large bicycles.

"By the way, we have to go to the industrial department as soon as possible."

"Xingbang, let me take this car to the industrial department for inspection."

After saying this, Director Yang set off in a hurry.

Instead of taking a car, he chose to ride the bicycle directly there.

The industrial sector was located right inside City 49, so he could easily ride to his destination.

Seventeen minutes later.

In a small conference room of the industrial department, senior leaders called together more than a dozen professional scholars to discuss the feasibility of graphite fiber bicycles.

"My superior, this is the first time I have come into contact with graphite fiber. It is not only extremely light but also has high tensile strength. It is indeed a new material with great prospects."

One of the experts and scholars said so.

In the 1960s, the so-called experts and scholars had their own specialties, which were incomparable to today's so-called experts. Their suggestions were all based on solid academic knowledge and unique perspectives.

"My superior, when I accepted this bicycle from Comrade Xingbang, he provided a suggestion."

"He said that given the high cost of bicycles made of graphite fiber, even if the product quality is excellent, it is difficult to find market space in the country. He suggested that we consider producing and exporting to foreign customers to earn foreign exchange."

Factory Director Yang Zhi put forward his point of view.

"Superior, I fully agree with Director Yang's opinion."

An expert familiar with the international market expressed support for Director Yang.

After hearing this, the superior leaders nodded in agreement.

In the 1960s, China was in urgent need of foreign exchange to support construction. Therefore, any form of foreign exchange earning method, if proven feasible, would certainly be listed as a national key project.

That day, when returning to the metal rolling products factory, the factory director Yang Zhi looked happy and delighted.

I am carrying an official instruction from the Ministry of Industry, which orders us to start mass production of graphite fiber, and this place is designated as the only manufacturer of this product in the country!

After returning to the unit

Find engineer Wan Xingbang for consultation immediately.

"If you are going to create a mass production line for graphite fiber and need manpower or funds, we will fully cooperate. Do you think this will be difficult?" Factory Director Yang Zhi asked Wan Xingbang.

In fact, the graphite fiber samples created by Wanxingbang are only handmade in the laboratory stage and do not involve mass production issues and cannot be mass-produced.

"no problem!"

This was not surprising to him. Once the relevant departments realized the advantages of this product, they would definitely push it to the front line and realize large-scale production.

With the support of Director Yang Zhi and under the specific guidance of Wan Xingbang, all the staff of the technical department were mobilized to build a new batch production line of graphite fiber. However, personally, for Wan Xingbang, this work is no longer the key in his eyes.

His next step is to design an electric car.

Even motorcycles and off-road heavy trucks are included in his design plans.

He plans to take it one step at a time, starting with small cars and gradually moving on to more complex projects.

But before that, the manufacturing of the new lathe had to be completed.

Traditional models cannot meet his technical requirements. Only by developing more advanced new machine tools can he smoothly carry out a series of projects!

Its ultimate ideal is far from being limited to this single metal rolling mill.

What he cares about is the transformation and upgrading of my country's entire industrial system!

Hope soars into the sky with our country.

Back of the canteen

During break time.

Fang Dun and Ma Hua are chatting.

Fang Dun sat down to drink tea, while Ma Hua stood beside him.

"It seems that Wan Jiazi hasn't eaten in the cafeteria recently, right?"

He looked particularly solemn.

yesterday

When he was secretly watching Qin Zhunru's figure, he happened to meet engineer Wan Xingbang returning.

But he caught a glimpse of Qin Huairu also spying on Wan Xingbang's back... just like Fang Dong secretly in love with Qin Zhunru

In an instant

It was as if a sharp sword pierced my heart.

The heart-wrenching pain surged into my heart!

What follows is endless anger and jealousy!

Jia Zhiguo opposed Wan Xingbang because he approached his woman. Although Qin Huairu was Jia Dongxu's wife, she actually had nothing to do with Jia Zhiguo.

"Master, I don't know."

"Don't ask me anymore. Do you still remember being caught by the Security Department?" Ma Hua couldn't help but shudder.

The last time he was arrested, he was only questioned a few times and suffered a lot; if he is arrested again this time, it will be considered as a repeated incorrigible, and he will probably suffer more. Thinking of this, Jia Zhiguo couldn't help but shudder.

Hey!

Jia Zhiguo snorted coldly.

The scene of Qin Huairu secretly looking at Wan Xingbang appeared in his mind. "Wan, you better be careful!"

"If you dare to snatch Sister Qin from me, I won't let you go."

"I can't do anything to you in the factory, but it's a different story outside the factory. Blackmail is my specialty." Jia Zhiguo has secretly made a plan.

Prepare a sack and an iron rod, lie in ambush at a suitable place, and when Wan Xingbang isn't paying attention, give him a good beating.

Break his legs and teach him a lesson.

At this time,

Wan Xingbang brought some drawings to Director Yang. "Xingbang, you have new works again?" Director Yang was very happy.

In his opinion, Wan Xingbang is a great blessing to the factory! "Director, it's not completely new,"

“I developed an electric bicycle and designed a motorcycle, but both were based on the original bicycle.”

Wan Xingbang handed the design to Director Yang. "Very good!"

"By the way, Xingbang, you haven't been assigned a bicycle yet, right? After discussion, we decided to give you the carbon fiber bicycle you made yourself as a gift as an encouragement. This is a decision agreed by the factory leaders." Director Yang officially announced.

The first batch of carbon fiber bicycles were sent to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology for evaluation and received praise, so the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology asked Wanxingbang to make another batch for more detailed evaluation;

Most of them have been delivered, and the remaining two bicycles are kept as samples. "Thank you, Director!"

Wan Xingbang's eyes sparkled with surprise.

When it was time to get off work, Wan Xingbang immediately rode the gifted bicycle back to his own courtyard.

"You see, his bicycle is different from the standard ones."

"It's definitely different, especially the multiple gear combinations on the rear wheel, which are not found on other bicycles."

"It must be a high-end imported product. Ordinary people wouldn't buy such expensive items."

"Even the young man riding the bicycle looks very handsome, and he must be of a very high status."

"I won't say any more nonsense. How can an ordinary person afford a bicycle, let alone an imported high-end bicycle like this? Maybe he is the son of a high-ranking official."

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Wan Xingbang rode all the way home safely.

Return to the courtyard.

Yan Fugui, who was in charge of the door, looked at Wan Xingbang's strange bicycle and couldn't recognize what brand and model it was.

Looks exceptionally high-end!

"Xingbang, why is this bicycle so special?"

Yan Fugui came over to carefully observe this special bicycle and touched its frame with his hand. Then he frowned slightly and tried to feel around again.

"Xingbang, why does the material feel like it's not made of steel? Have we been cheated?"

Yan Furui raised a question.

"Uncles, this is a carbon fiber bicycle. The frame is made of carbon fiber, not steel."

Fortunately, Xiaoxiao explained.

"What do you mean by carbon fiber?"

"Wouldn't it be better to use metal?"

Yan Furui had obviously never heard of carbon fiber.

In fact, it is not just him. In the whole country, most people are unfamiliar with carbon fiber. Even if we look at the international situation, it is just a new type of material that has emerged recently. It is still in the scientific research stage and has no practical application.

The Wan Xing Gang was the first to use it.

“It’s a new material called carbon fiber, which is lighter than steel. This bike model was designed by me and represents the latest model.”

Wan Xing Gang further explained.

“I guess it must be expensive, right?”

Yan Fugui speculated. For an unknown material, the price must be high.

"It's quite expensive, starting at at least 600 yuan."

Wan Xing Gang nodded in agreement.

In fact, it is not only valuable, but also not easy to buy.

If it is mass-produced, it will most likely be sold only for export as an opportunity to earn money and obtain foreign currency. As for the domestic consumer market, it is still dominated by practicality and cost-effectiveness.

"Hmm? It's a weird thing, and its origin is unclear. It might have been stolen."

Many residents gathered in the yard to see what was going on.
