Chapter 22 Boss Fan of Yongli Soda Factory
Facing the technological blockade of foreigners and the Japanese army,
Especially on core technology blockades such as gunpowder, chemistry, industrial manufacturing, etc.
This makes the entire country almost at a state of zero industrial foundation.
The country lacks advanced science and technology, so whether in manufacturing, industry, or various industries, especially military manufacturing, it cannot be compared with foreign countries or comparable to those of foreign countries.
Even Zhang Dashuai, who was rich and powerful, relied entirely on the military technical support provided by the Japanese army in his Northeast Army's arsenal, whether it was manufacturing aircraft, tanks, ships, or the entire manufacturing process.
Whether it is a military designer, engineer or technical master, they are all from the Japanese army. Even the most tragic thing is that even the raw materials for production need to be purchased from the Japanese army. As for the core technology, it is either controlled by the Japanese army or by other foreign countries.
On this side of his arsenal, he is only responsible for simple assembly.
When Zhou Wenhua and Zhou Wenhua were in the warehouse of the automobile factory, he fully understood the newly purchased diesel injection pumps, and he also dismantled and gained an in-depth understanding of the diesel engines that his father bought back very early and eliminated by foreigners.
After he fully understood these old diesel engines, he also began to walk out of the warehouse.
Because he wants to develop his own car, he also needs to solve how to build a car production line similar to the automobile assembly line he invented, so that cars can go industrialized.
Instead of just imitating a small number of cars,
You should know that even in the era of technological development more than 100 years later, automobile assembly still used assembly lines invented by Ford, but later generations adopted intelligence and robots to replace artificial.
The Ford T-mobile car driving down the assembly line is the first assembly line in the true sense of the automobile manufacturing industry.
In 1900, Norton, a American man, made large-diameter and wide grinding wheels, as well as heavy-duty grinding machines with large and strong rigidity. With the emergence and development of this heavy-duty grinding machine, the entire human mechanical manufacturing technology has also entered a new stage of precision.
Although it is not as good as CNC machine tools in later generations,
But there have been great progress.
The operators manually operate the electric machine tool and make the processed parts according to the requirements of the design drawings. Faced with such a new industrial production method, it is definitely higher in production efficiency and quality than the steam era.
In the era when the country was rich and the people were strong, the gap between domestic machine tool manufacturing technology and Germany, Italy and Japan was 15 to 20 years.
Foreign machine tools can be stopped for 24 hours without stopping, but domestic equipment cannot be used; the speed of foreign machine tools processing parts is also faster than that of domestic equipment.
What's more, the Republic of China, an era where industry is almost zero-foundation,
And it is also a era of great blockade caused by the most cruel foreign science and technology and industrial technology, so I want to develop my own automobile production line and manufacture automobiles.
Zhou Wenhua must get the electric machine tool.
As for wanting to spend a lot of money, buy it from foreigners,
That is simply impossible,
For foreigners, this is a technical and technological product that even if you have money, you won’t sell it.
Otherwise, how can we say that technology blockade is?
I just don’t want Zhou Wenhua to gain industrial reform and rise in the country where he lives.
Machine tools are divided into 11 categories: lathes, drilling machines, gear processing machines, thread processing machines, milling machines, planing machines, boring machines, grinding machines, pulling machines, sawing machines and other machine tools.
In the early days of the Industrial Revolution, most common machine tools were developed from wood, and the parts inside, including gears, connecting rods, shafts, etc. were all made of wood.
However, with the development of industrialization, metal-made machine tools replaced wooden parts through forged and cast metal parts.
But even so, accuracy is still a problem that needs to be solved.
There are generally two concepts of precision, one is processing accuracy and the other is measurement accuracy.
German and Italian industrial technology and machine tool manufacturing technology have always been famous all over the world for their exquisiteness and rigor, both during the Republic of China and later generations.
Although Zhou Wenhua can use a lot of scientific and technological knowledge he has mastered in later generations to exchange technology with German machine tool brands and military industry tycoons, several precision electric machine tools to produce and develop cars.
Of course, you can also conduct technical exchange of automobile production lines with Ford Motor Company.
But for now, he really wants to try it out, use his knowledge to carry out independent research and development and production without cooperating with foreigners.
Founded in 1921, the German Julang Chiron is headquartered in Berlin and Munich. Since 1852, the company produces metal processing machine tools, Schuler, which is a representative of machine tools of this era and electrification.
As for Dekelmahaujitmai Machine Tool Co., Ltd., it was established in 2002.
However, these German machine tool companies will never transfer core technology to the outside.
Therefore, while Zhou Wenhua was distracting his thinking about future generations and the current history of machine tools development during the Republic of China period,
Although he could also find a few useful steel frames and build a simple hand-made lathe to make things, the production of automobiles must be an industrial machine tool.
Military industries such as aircraft and tanks in various countries have used assembly lines to produce large-scale production without exception.
Just when he thought of this, Zhou Wenhua suddenly remembered that his father had stored a scrapped planer guide rail and a milling machine frame in the custody room at home.
He felt that he might be able to use it for research and use it.
At that time, the automobile industry was a workshop-style. I bought an engine and transmission box, equipped with wheels, brakes, and seats. A car was quickly assembled.
However, such a simple and slow assembly cannot be carried out in a commercial vehicle production process, and various models of cars can be produced as quickly as possible for mass production.
However, as a leader in the automotive industry, Ford, its company's automobile market share had dropped to 28% in 1931, just over half of it 17 years ago.
So Zhou Wenhua felt that if he really couldn't make an industrial machine tool, he might consider technical exchanges from Ford, whose business quota was declining.
Anyway, Ford has a hardworking and good son named Edsell.
Perhaps we can conduct technical exchanges and production assembly lines through this Edsell.
In 1927, the industrial automobile production and assembly line developed by Ford Motor Company can already assemble a car at a speed of every 24 seconds.
Steel is the cornerstone of materials used in the automotive industry.
Therefore, Zhou Wenhua also needs to solve the problem of machine tools, industrial automobile production lines, and steel development and production. It can be said that he needs to deal with many science and technology.
However, for Zhou Wenhua, who visited the mechanization and intelligent production process of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class in later generations, he felt that he still had the ability to solve the Ford automobile production line during this period.
Of course, he has visited and studied the production lines of Tesla on-site manufacturing and many branded automobile factories, so he really has the confidence and confidence.
Just as Zhou Wenhua was about to leave the car factory,
But the butler Liu Xing suddenly called the car factory.
And let the car master here ask Zhou Wenhua to answer the answer.
"Hey! Is it the housekeeper? What's the matter?"
When Zhou Wenhua learned about the urgent call from the butler Liu Xing, he quickly went to the office to answer the phone.
"It's such a fourth young master! Two officers have been sent over to report on the Navy, saying that they are here to help you train those newly recruited security team members!"
"In addition, Boss Fan of the Wynn Alkaline Factory, which has a cooperative relationship with the master, planned to consider running his own Wynn Alkaline Factory after the negotiations between the UK and Germany broke down. However, he needs financial support now, so he called and asked if our company had any intention to engage in investment cooperation!"
When Zhou Wenhua answered the call,
The butler Liu Xing also immediately reported frankly.
"Boss Fan? Boss Fan of Wynn Alkaline Factory?"
"Yes! It's him!"
"Okay! I'll be back soon. You call Boss Fan. I'm willing to invest in him to cooperate in establishing our first sulfuric acid factory in China, and the name is still based on his Wynn brand name!"
"As for the two officers sent by the Navy, treat them well and arrange their accommodations, I will come back now!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Wenhua was confused for a moment.
Then, he widened his eyes and looked surprised.
Chapter completed!
