King of Industry

In the big conference room, after Lu Zhixing called his name, the middle-aged man with a pair of black *rimmed glasses* and a pedantic appearance nodded, turned on the old-fashioned projector on the left, and then the video in front of him A few taps on the microcomputer.

After a while, a car body structure drawing appeared on the screen at the front of the meeting room.

In the early 1990s, computers were not yet popular, and generally only institutions of higher learning, scientific research institutions or large enterprises would use microcomputers.

As one of the top ten domestic automobile manufacturers, the technical department of Jinling Automobile Factory naturally has microcomputers.

The structural drawing projected in front of them is obviously the shape of the Iveco commercial vehicle designed by their engineers.

Except for the senior executives of Jinling Automobile Group, it may be the first time for others to see such a thing as computer graphics, and their eyes were a little straight at that time.

Wang Ziqing and Liu Renhe should also be seeing this kind of drawing method for the first time. When you look at me and I look at you, the eyes are full of shock.

As for Zhu Maotao and Zhao Siyan, although they have been in contact with microcomputers, they have never experienced mechanical drawing on computers.

At this time, seeing the neat and detailed structural drawings on the screen, the two of them were also a little surprised.

The expressions of Wang Ziqing and Zhu Maotao naturally did not escape Lu Zhixing's eyes.

Seeing the more or less surprised looks on the faces of these people, he was secretly proud: It doesn't matter whether you are from the Provincial Machinery Industry Committee or the professors of Jinling University of Technology, in terms of the level of vehicle design, you can compare with our Jinling Automobile. Are the engineers in the technical department of the factory more than?

It's no wonder that Lu Zhixing is so confident. The technical department of Jinling Automobile Factory is very strong in terms of design. Last year alone, it won more than ten domestic design patents.

As far as the number of patents is concerned, Jinling Automobile Factory is not far behind the most prestigious vehicle research institute in Jiangnan Province.

Just when Wang Ziqing and the others were immersed in the structure diagram on the screen and Lu Zhixing was full of ambitions, Zhao Guoyang, who was sitting by the side, showed a look of annoyance on his face.

At this moment, he is complaining that he is too stupid to forget that there is such a thing as a computer.

These days, after confirming that the factory will manufacture motorcycles, Zhao Guoyang has been thinking about how to present the structure diagram.

Although the structural shape of this motorcycle, Zhao Guoyang can design it with his eyes closed. But designing it and presenting it are two different things.

In the early 1990s, there was no 3D software in the world, neither SolidWorks, ProE, nor UG.

Under such circumstances, no matter how wild Zhao Guoyang's imagination is, it is difficult to transform it into a real thing and present it to others.

You can't ask him to draw one picture after another by hand. It may take a month to paint, and he may not be able to do it.

Therefore, in the past few days, Zhao Guoyang has been having a headache on how to realize the design plan in his mind.

However, at this moment, after seeing these two-dimensional design drawings on the screen, Zhao Guoyang had a clue.

In fact, this is a very simple matter. Although 3D software has not yet been born in this era, 2D software CAD already exists.

Although 2D software is definitely not as easy to use as 3D software when designing complex machinery such as vehicles, it is still dozens or even a hundred times better than manual drawing.

Zhao Guoyang is absolutely convinced that as long as he owns a computer with the simplest CAD program installed in it, he can design a motorcycle with a new concept within a day.

Thinking of a solution to this difficult problem in his mind, Zhao Guoyang heaved a sigh of relief, with a burst of relief on his face.

Noticing that Zhao Guoyang shook his head and sighed here, Zhao Siyan beside him couldn't help asking casually: Guoyang, do you have any opinions on this design drawing? Is there something unreasonable about their design?

Zhao Siyan's words were just a casual question, wanting to hear Zhao Guoyang's opinion on the drawings on the screen.

After all, after the trip to Songjiang, she knew Zhao Guoyang's super strength in the automobile field.

But as soon as she said this, she was suspected of underestimating the designers of the Jinling Automobile Group Company.

The conference room was originally very quiet, although Zhao Siyan's voice was low, it still reached the ears of the people next to her.

Hearing that this little girl actually asked an unknown young man what he thought of the achievements of his designers, Lu Zhixing was the first to be unhappy.

He stared at Zhao Guoyang and Zhao Siyan, coughed and said, Researcher Zhao, you just told the comrade next to you that there is something wrong with the structural diagrams of the technical department of our Jinling Automobile Group Company, right?

Well, it's just right. I want to ask you in person. Look at the drawings drawn by our designers. Where are the omissions?

When Lu Zhixing spoke, there was a hint of sarcasm on his face. Needless to say, he definitely didn't ask for advice sincerely, but wanted Zhao Siyan to get off the stage.

After being called by Lu Zhixing, Zhao Siyan was taken aback for a moment, and then her pretty face turned red.

She knew that when she spoke just now, she was a little too casual, which made Mr. Lu feel dissatisfied, and turned her into an army.

But Zhao Siyan also understood that it was too late to be upset, and the only thing she could do was to keep silent and not let Mr. Lu make further use of it.

Zhao Siyan's idea was correct, but she underestimated the extra purpose that Lu Zhixing wanted to use.

Seeing that Zhao Siyan was silent, Lu Zhixing pressed him step by step: What's the matter, Researcher Zhao, are you looking down on the design results of our technical department? Or is it that you can design a better vehicle structure than ours? ?”

As soon as Lu Zhixing uttered such shameless words, Zhao Guoyang noticed that Zhao Siyan was biting her lips tightly, and there seemed to be two crystals in her eyes.

This girl who has always been strong and cheerful, at this time, in front of Mr. Lu who has the absolute right to speak, inevitably shows her weak side.

Seeing Zhao Siyan being embarrassed, Zhu Maotao couldn't bear to lose face.

But he also knew that what his disciple said just now was indeed inappropriate.

Knowing that he was wrong, although he was upset, he could only look at Zhao Siyan with soft eyes, comforting himself as his lover.

Feeling the teacher's concern, Zhao Siyan forced a smile, but it was uglier than crying.

Seeing this scene, it was naturally impossible for Zhao Guoyang to remain silent.

He patted Zhao Siyan's arm lightly, then stood up slowly, and said in a calm tone: President Lu, why don't I answer the question you asked for her.

Zhao Guoyang looked directly at Lu Zhixing, and said word by word: We are customers from afar, so of course we will not look down on the design results of your company's technicians. However, it is not a big deal to say that you can design a better vehicle shape than your company's. Difficult!
