"They want to come to study, do you agree?"

"Not yet, but from the Three Machinery Department..."

Yang Xiaotao didn't say the result, but the result was already obvious.

"In this case, I will talk to Mr. Xia and listen to his opinion."

"Okay, I'll go back and wait for news."

Yang Xiaotao said and left. Before he returned to the house, he saw Lou Xiao'e leading a group of children up to the second floor with a loudspeaker.

"Classmates, please line up..."

He returned to the office in a few steps, closed the door, and then continued to study the drawings.

While Yang Xiaotao was studying the diesel engine drawings, the First Machinery Department's research on a new diesel engine once again attracted everyone's attention.

Logistics Department.

Mr. Qin organized people to start the meeting.

"Team Leader Xue, how far has the engine research reached?"

Team Leader Xue on the side looked up when he heard this and said, "Chief, we are still in research mode."

"How long will it take to get it done?"

"Years ago."

Team Leader Xue said without confidence. Mr. Qin looked at him displeased, and then glanced at the whole place, with helplessness in his eyes.

"The First Machinery Department has started a new engine development plan."

"In order to meet export demand, they will develop a two-cylinder engine, which is to add one cylinder to the single cylinder."

"Team Leader Xue, how do you think this plan is feasible?"

Mr. Qin called his name again, and Team Leader Xue understood that if he did not give a satisfactory answer this time, he would not be able to pass the test.

"Chief, through the research on single-cylinder diesel engines, we have also proposed the research direction of dual-cylinder and even four-cylinder engines. However, after some testing, we found that the dual-cylinder engine is not a simple one plus one. The technical difficulties involved are more difficult than that of a single-cylinder engine.

will be multiplied."

"Because there is no precedent to follow, design is particularly important and the most difficult."

"So, I guess it would be great if they could make it years ago."

After Team Leader Xue finished speaking, everyone below started talking, and many people agreed with this point of view.

Mr. Qin did the math and found that it is now November, the middle of the tenth month of the lunar calendar, and it is only more than two months before the Chinese New Year.

"In this case, we will get the engine out before the end of the year."

"The tricycle project has been delayed for a long time. It has been mentioned many times. After this time, I can't wait any longer."

Team Leader Xue and others nodded in unison.

As the meeting ended, everyone felt uneasy.

If we can't fix the engine this time, the gap will only get wider and wider, and catching up will only become more difficult.

Fortunately, they still have a plan B.

Shanghai, automobile factory.

In the conference room.

"Old Secretary, don't worry, we were able to successfully develop the engine years ago."

Factory Manager Jiang made a promise to the old secretary. The old man in front of him had caught a cold in the winter and kept coughing.

Who would have thought that the winter in Shanghai this year would be so cold, so cold that people are unprepared.

Cough cough cough

The old secretary covered his mouth and kept coughing.

The people around me quickly reached out and patted my back.

Everyone in the conference room told him to go back and rest quickly and take good care of himself first, but the old secretary heard about the First Machinery Department and insisted on coming to see it.

For no other reason than to sit down and take a breath.

"That's good, that's good."

"If you have confidence, I will feel relieved."

The old secretary agreed and stopped coughing, but his mind was still thinking about the reminder that Lao Jin had given him.

The reason why machinery factories are valued by the superiors is because of their independent research and development capabilities.

Only by mastering core strength can you be invincible.

That's why he agreed to the car factory's change of direction from diesel engines to gasoline engines, hoping that the east would not shine and the west would shine, and catch up on the development of gasoline engines.

Seeing this, Director Jiang winked at the people around him, and then the old secretary was sent out of the conference room.

After the old secretary left, Director Jiang stood in front of the conference table and scanned everyone.

Below, everyone bowed their heads and remained silent.

"Old secretary, why are you dragging your sick body here?"

boom

His fist hit the table, shocking everyone's hearts.

"I don't care whether it's difficult or not."
