Travel through the 1945 super power construction secret base

The next morning, Wang Ze and Ma Qi set out early for the armored vehicle factory.

Yesterday, Wang Ze joined the team on the tour, but after using his superpowers to carefully check, he found that the factory's current production progress still had a large gap.

In his opinion, it would be quite difficult to complete the task within three months as Ma Qi had envisioned.

Therefore, as the chief engineer, he decided to come in person to give some guidance. After all, no matter how lazy he was on weekdays, he still had to do something about this kind of technical issue as the chief engineer.

After arriving at the factory, the director of the armored vehicle factory warmly greeted them and accompanied them to visit several production workshops.

After a quick look around, Wang Ze politely asked the factory director to go and take care of other matters first, saying that Ma Qi would accompany him.

The factory director was directly selected by a ministry-level unit. Almost all the employees in the entire armored vehicle factory, from the management level to the grassroots level, were directly dispatched by the ministry, with the exception of the technical department.

In addition, the armored vehicle factory's security department was staffed by personnel sent directly by the military, and the machinery factory's original security team was not used.

As a result, Wang Ze's control over the factory is relatively weak.

But after all, he is the chief engineer of the factory. From a theoretical perspective, the rank of these factory directors is not as high as his.

It's just that he has been in the organization for a short time and has not actually worked there for many years, so the upper-level leaders, out of caution, did not promote him to the position he deserves all at once, but instead planned to promote him gradually.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, if there are no issues of principle involved, Wang Ze still has a certain say in this factory.

After the director of the armored vehicle factory left, Wang Ze led Ma Qi into one of the workshops, which was responsible for the production of turrets.

When designing the light tank, Wang Ze incorporated many technologies: an automatic ammunition supply system, a streamlined oval turret, and a 105mm caliber gun barrel.

However, due to the limitations of current technology, manual operation is still needed to complete aiming and stable control.

The factory still has some shortcomings in electronic technology and can only wait for the scientific research base to achieve research results before it can upgrade and improve these vehicles and tanks.

Although from Wang Ze's point of view, this tank still has many aspects that need to be improved, it is undeniable that its appearance will greatly enhance the army's offensive capabilities.

What is more worth mentioning is that the design of this tank sets the combat weight at 20 tons, but due to the extensive use of light steel materials, this tank is not inferior to many existing heavy tanks in terms of various indicators such as defense performance.

In other words, it has both the excellent protection capabilities of a heavy tank and the high mobility and passability unique to a light tank.

Since it uses a 105mm cannon, Wang Ze feels that it is still a little lacking in terms of attack power, but in the current era, such equipment is sufficient to meet the needs.

After all, we are not facing the era of the future where the thickness of armor is continuously stacked.

Many designs make the turret structure extremely complicated, and for armored vehicle manufacturers with no production experience, it is indeed difficult to handle these complex structures.

In recent days, Wang Ze has been staying in the factory with Ma Qi, and they have been tackling each technical problem one by one.

Whenever relevant knowledge was explained, the workers and technicians in the factory would sit around, listen attentively and take notes carefully.

After following for a few days, Ma Qi had great admiration for the patriarch.

In the field of machinery, the patriarch has extremely profound professional knowledge, and many of his production and processing techniques are unheard of.

Ma Qi couldn't help but wonder where did they learn all this knowledge? I heard that the clan leader graduated from the University of Hong Kong. Is the level of Hong Kong University so high?

He often read foreign journals brought back by members of the base, and felt that many technologies abroad were not as good as what the patriarch said.

During this period of time, Ma Qi feels that he has gained a lot. In the past, when he encountered problems, he could only rely on himself to explore and solve them;

But now it is different. Whenever there are any doubts, the patriarch can always give accurate answers in time.

With the guidance of the patriarch, the research work progressed at a dramatically different speed.

He felt that instead of two or three months, he could ensure that other types of armored vehicles could be produced in just one month.

Wang Ze gradually immersed himself in the feeling of being surrounded by people every day, with pairs of eyes full of longing staring at him.

However, all the key points that needed to be explained have been taught, and the technical problems have been solved. The next step is for the factory to start production and assembly work according to the established plan.

When Wang Ze announced that the technical guidance work was successfully completed, the workers and technicians expressed their reluctance to let him go and tried their best to keep him staying for a while longer.

They felt that if the chief engineer could teach them for a longer period of time, their technical level would be greatly improved.

Faced with such enthusiastic retention, Wang Ze declined reluctantly, but looking at everyone's dejected expressions as if they had lost money, he could only promise with a wry smile.

If you encounter any technical problems in the future, the factory's technical department will do its best to solve them; if the technical department is unable to cope with the problem, the technical department of the head office will serve as a solid backing; even if you really have to resort to desperate measures, you can come directly to him for help.

In short, technology must never become a stumbling block to factory development.

After returning to the main factory, Wang Ze asked Ma Qi to summarize the content of the lectures in the past few days and send it to the technical departments of each branch factory.

After all, most mechanical knowledge is universal and is not limited to armored vehicle factories. Other branches can also draw a lot of valuable experience from it.

After everything was arranged, Wang Ze went to his eldest brother's office.

Today, my brother's work is relatively not as busy as before. At this stage, he pays more attention to the construction of the factory residential area.

You know, there are more than 100,000 workers with their families in the factory, and the original factory dormitories have long been overwhelmed and overcrowded. Many people can only live in temporary residences built by the factory, and even the basic problem of keeping warm is difficult to solve.

"You're here! How's your teaching going in the machinery factory these days?"

Wang Jixin was a little surprised to see his younger brother come to visit him suddenly, but he was more happy.

In fact, Wang Ze knew about this as early as the first day he went to teach.

Naturally, he would not hinder such a good thing that could improve the technical level of the factory, and he never went to inspect or disturb the teaching work.

When he saw his brother coming, he asked straight to the point.

"No problem! I have solved all the technical difficulties and taught them. Now it depends on them to practice and accumulate experience slowly."

After Wang Ze walked into the room, he went straight to the cabinet, took out the tea leaves skillfully, and then started making tea as if no one was around.

The two brothers chatted for a while, and the topic revolved around the development of the factory and future plans.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it was time to get off work. The two left the factory together.
