I asked you to modify it, what the hell is this fighter jet's engine?

"Wow~"

Everyone present exclaimed that their tech-savvy brains had crashed.

In the 1950s, Longguo's machinery manufacturing technology was very crude. Take the CA10 truck for example, the error of the engine and transmission parts was allowed to be within 2 millimeters.

This also causes oil leakage from the bottom of the cylinder. New cars require a running-in period of one thousand to two thousand kilometers after leaving the factory.

Of course, the error of the parts rubbed by hand by an eighth-level worker can be controlled within a fraction, but mass production of products requires a large number of parts. Even if all the eighth-level workers in the country are exhausted, they cannot meet the production needs of a car company.

"Director, it is indeed accurate."

Director Hao from the workshop held a caliper and shouted in surprise.

The leaders of the Red Star Automobile Factory nearby immediately requested the machinery factory to produce 10 camshaft lathes and to pull the shafts of the camshaft lathes under test.

In order to complete the task of designing and manufacturing domestically produced cars, their Sijiucheng Automobile Factory was unable to meet production requirements due to equipment problems.

Now that the machinery factory has equipment to increase production capacity, how could they let it go?

"Old Wang, I'm not trying to offend you, but this camshaft lathe still needs to be inspected and accepted by experts from the First Ministry of Machine Building before it can go into mass production."

Liu Dekui tried hard to suppress his joy and kept a calm expression, but the slight curl at the corners of his mouth betrayed him.

The old Wang in front of them was directly under the ministry, and his rank was higher than their machinery factory. Usually, when other factories went to the automobile factory to buy cars, they had to promise benefits.

Even so...I can't even pick up the car.

Now Wang Jun, deputy director of Sijiucheng Automobile City, has turned around and asked for help from the machinery factory. How can Liu Dekui not try to take advantage of it?

"Lao Liu, let's make a deal. After the experts from the First Ministry of Machine Building inspect and accept the work, the first batch of camshaft lathes you produce will be given to our factory."

Wang Jun was anxious. Although he did not understand the technology, he knew that a good horse deserves a good saddle. The camshaft lathe was a piece of equipment tailor-made for the Auto City. If their Auto City did not purchase it in the first batch, but it was snatched away by other brother units, where would the number one car factory in Sijiu City put its face?

"Old Wang, you know our machinery factory is weak and can't compare with your automobile factory. Look... In order to rush to make this camshaft lathe, the workers worked overtime and it took them a month to produce this lathe.

The lathe was successfully tested, but even as the factory manager, I am powerless to improve the workers' food."

Product!

Please taste it carefully.

A crying child has milk.

The machinery factory's allocations were not as good as those of the automobile factory, so how could Liu Dekui miss the opportunity to seek benefits for the factory?

hetui~

If you want to take advantage of me, then take advantage of me.

Is it fun to cry poor in front of me?

I heard yesterday that your factory bought two big fat pigs, which is equivalent to half a month's rations of our automobile factory.

"Old Liu, I have to criticize you. The workers are contributing to the country, but how can you, as a factory director, manage logistics without even being able to provide them with better food?

So... I'll take the initiative and give your factory 500 kilograms from our car factory's rations this month."

"On behalf of the thousands of workers at the machinery factory, I would like to thank our brother units.

In this way, after the experts’ acceptance, the camshaft lathes produced by the workshop overtime will be provided to your factory first.”

Although Wang Jun gained face, how can face be as important as substance?

Liu Dekui held Wang Jun tightly with both hands and shook them. When the people present heard that they could eat meat, they applauded for a long time.

Gao Xiaoguang, standing by, was using measuring tools to measure the engine parts produced by Jiang Shifeng and other workers.

"Within a hair's breadth."

"A slight error."

"Two-digit error"

"..."

After Gao Xiaoguang's on-site training, the processing accuracy of the level 3-5 workers present was controlled within one thread, while the processing accuracy of the level 6-7 workers was no worse at all.

He handed the process flow he had written in advance to Director Hao of the workshop, and reminded him that production must strictly follow the production process flow.

When it was almost time to get off work, Wang Min took him to the factory director's office.

"Xiao Gao! You've earned honor for our factory this time. After a meeting at the factory office, we've decided to reward you with a bicycle ticket."

Liu Dekui handed over the bicycle ticket.

what?

Only after developing a camshaft lathe will you be rewarded with a bicycle ticket?

You know, it was not until a few years later when Miss Qiu came into the world that the researchers awarded her a Big Black Ten.

In this era, dedication and honor are important.

What's more, they were also rewarded with a bicycle ticket. You know, bicycles of this era are equivalent to BBA luxury cars in later generations. Even the subordinate machinery factories only received one or two bicycles every year, which shows how precious they were.

"Director, this honor belongs to our factory, not to me personally," Gao Xiaoguang said modestly.

"You little Gao!" Liu Dekui pointed and said with a smile, "It's your honor, it's yours, no one can take it away.

After the experts have passed the inspection, your level will be raised one level."

"Thank you, Director, and the factory leaders for your care for me."

As Gao Xiaoguang spoke, he opened the drawings of the designed boring machines, drilling machines, milling machines and other general lathes.

"Universal lathe." Liu Dekui knew about the universal lathe, and he became even more determined to hold on to Gao Xiaoguang and not let him be abducted.

"Director, the universal lathe that Section Chief Wang and I designed can increase production efficiency by 25%."

Wang Mincai on the side quickly pointed to the drawings and explained.

The factory director looked at the drawings in front of him with an expressionless face. He knew very well that these drawings were definitely not made by Wang Mincai.

However, as the factory director, he did not point out that his apprentice was giving credit to his master.

"Section Chief Wang, Xiao Gao, it's a good thing you have such an idea. Our factory can produce camshaft lathes on a small scale, but if we also produce general-purpose lathes, that would... exceed our product range."

"Director, I don't agree with what you said. If we can produce axle lathes on a small scale, then we can also produce general-purpose lathes on a small scale." Wang Mincai emphasized the word "small scale".

"Moreover, the country's First Five-Year Plan exceeded its prescribed tasks, achieved rapid economic growth, and laid the initial foundation for industrialization."

"Besides, our factory is adding new products and creating more jobs, which is also a contribution to the Second Five-Year Plan."

Wang Mincai added.

"Chief Wang, I understand your feelings for the development of our motherland, but those guys in the Northeast must be uncomfortable knowing that we are stealing their projects." The factory director said calmly.

"This is like the factory management taking your work. How can your technical department be okay with that?"

"And if the leaders of the First Ministry of Machine Building found out, it would give them the impression that our factory is not doing its job properly."

Wang Mincai frowned slightly.

In order to plan its industrialization, the country has spent a lot of foreign exchange and asked the big brother to help build lathe factories. At present, several lathe factories are still in the stage of imitating the big brother's lathes. But if the lathe factories knew that the lathe factories that were strongly supported by the country were not as good as the machinery factories, it would be a slap in the face to them.

Gao Xiaoguang, who was standing by, felt a little uncomfortable when he heard this.

But in this era, there is no such thing as intellectual property rights. A product that one company spends manpower and material resources to develop is simply copied by other factories for free.

This also results in similar products being available in every province across the country.

In the long run, no one has engaged in product research and development.

There are some smart people who discover such problems, but no one dares to speak out. Whoever speaks out will be criticized and investigated.

"Xiao Gao, go eat first."

The factory director saw Gao Xiaoguang leave and said with a serious expression, "Section Chief Wang, what happened to you?"

"Chief Engineer Wang and the machine tool factory have been targeting Xiao Gao because of the camshaft lathe. They've submitted multiple reports to the department asking them to transfer him."

Hearing this, Wang Mincai frowned slightly, "Director, our factory finally got a talented person, and they just transfer people away like that?"

"I dare say... once we report the universal lathe to the Ministry, they will issue a document to transfer Comrade Xiao Gao to the Ministry. Once the transfer order is issued, can we still let Xiao Gao disobey it?"

"So the machine tool workshop won't be built?"
