Chapter 85: The Great Depression (4)

"Help me get in touch with my mother." Huang Xuan slowly followed the newly-worked workers, and the thick smell of sweat and fox smelled in the air. There are men's hormones everywhere in the sky. Like most factories in this period, newly recruited workers do not need to go through complicated procedures. The first thing is work, so that the boss can have enough time to exploit.
Lorraine did not discuss the issue of energy loss this time. In fact, his judgment is limited to data such as loss.
The connection between the planes is slightly delayed. As a propagation medium for sound waves, pure energy fluctuations require more energy. In order to avoid the situation of no numbers, Lorraine tied the communication link with Huang Xuan ’s mobile phone. This The layer conversion needs more energy.
After waiting for about two minutes, Zhang Xinyi's voice came to pass, with a sleepy smell: "Son, did you go out so early? Where are you?"
From the energy screen given by Lorraine, it should be just 6 o'clock now. Huang Xuan uttered his tongue and said, "Mom, I'm out of Nanjing now. I'm having some problems. I want you to help."
"Out of Nanjing?" Zhang Xinyi sat up all of a sudden and woke up Huang Qunsheng next to her. She took the quilt and said, "This Li Qing, how dare you take you out at night?"
Huang Xuan carefully followed Thomas and others and said, "It has nothing to do with him. I secretly came out alone."
"What are you going to do?" Zhang Xinyi pinched the microphone and said, "Where are you?"
It ’s not good to talk to my mom. She always wants to understand things first. Huang Xuan had to lie and said: "It was too late yesterday, and there were some things in the factories in the suburbs. I will pass by, and I will come back in a hurry after I have processed it. This is the call for you."
"Then be careful, I will ask Li Qing to pick you up. This guy."
It seems that my mom is going to teach Li Xiaoguan, Huang Xuan smiled bitterly: "Mom, don't ask him to come over. I'll handle some things by the way. I was looking for your help. You deliberately shifted the topic."
Determined that his son was fine, Zhang Xinyi just put on her jacket in full time and said, "Speak. What do you want your mother to do?"
"Well, I want to find a few professional mechanical engineers. To be quick and skilled in business. In particular, you must be proficient in the mechanical technology from the 30s to the 70s, and you must be able to draw pictures, and they need to prepare the materials."
"This should be your dad." Zhang Xinyi said to press the phone hands-free, said: "You say it to your dad again."
Huang Xuan had no choice but to repeat it again. At that time, a group of people had already arrived at the workshop. He was anxious: "My car is about to arrive, that's the case. But I have to work full-time for a few days, so I must be professional. It ’s better to have it this afternoon. "
"What are you doing?" Zhang Xinyi said anxiously.
"I couldn't tell for a while." Huang Xuan lowered his head and said, "Mom, after you help me find someone, ask them to prepare the information. Find another office, and then find a few networked computers. I will ask at any time. Give them the drawings. Let them pass them to me when they are finished. About a week or so, is $ 1 million enough? "
"Waste." Zhang Xinyi laughed and said, "Okay, I'll pay for the money. I asked the secretary and let your dad help you with some old professors, but you have to be polite, don't talk about money, We will arrange it for you. "
"Thank you mom." Huang Xuan happily kissed one.
During the talk, Huang Xuan had walked into a newly built small factory, which is the world's largest factory. New factories are being built almost every day here, and even the Great Depression cannot stop Henry Ford from expanding.
There were no deafening mechanical sounds in the workshop, and the environment was much better than ordinary workers. Thomas brought people here and released his hands covering his eyes. He said: "You all listen to the orders of Jans, and start to fight the old workers first, no The hard-working guy is about to leave, understand? "
With a sparse answer, Huang Xuan looked around with curiosity. There were only a few lathes. Some people wore dirty overalls on the table or did something near the lathes. Most of them were over the age. The range of young people is probably what kind of technicians.
Some large-scale drawings were thrown on the black cast iron table. Huang Xuanmin tried to look at it, but was slapped back with a slap, saying: "Apprentices can't read these."
It was Jans who was talking, a 40-year-old with a round face, a messy hair in the back, a big nose, and a slightly back ear.
Huang Xuan left the table indifferently, turned to Lorraine and said, "Go and see what those drawings are and compare the more advanced technology."
"More advanced."
"Within the 1950s." Huang Xuan avoided everyone's eyes and said: "Do you have any way to output these drawings?" It may be a little unrealistic to draw directly. If the workload is larger, Huang Xuan may be worried about muscle pain. .
Lorraine did not need to think, saying: "Is it possible to directly adsorb the toner? As long as there is paper and toner, the output speed is about 30 seconds per square."
"That's OK." Huang Xuan returned to the "team" in his speech, and finally said: "Look at what the Ford company's new research car is, complete it, and then look for the technology they lack."
"Okay." For Lorraine, it is a simple matter to find various technical information on P112. It is not difficult to find information in a certain plane, just how much energy is consumed. However, if you want to find a certain area of ​​information in a large area, especially in a large area of ​​non-standard surface search, not only will consume a lot of energy, but also inefficiency. After all, Lorraine ’s search does not press Enter on the search engine. Different planes may require different search methods, so that the cost is high.
Huang Xuan now asks Lorraine to search only for P101, which is currently the plane data. In this era of no data information, the search of data is still a waste of energy.
In the past day, the energy cost has exceeded one million US dollars, or how can we say that time and space travel is burning money. Huang Xuan does not matter, he is still immersed in the previous high returns.
"Come around." Jens yelled in a self-righteous voice, and the workers who had long been accustomed to him didn't even raise their heads.
Huang Xuangao raised his feet and walked over. The environment was excellent in this era, but the mess in the workshop was still there. The ground was covered with black dust brought by iron filings and lubricating oil. There are some uncomfortable.
"The three of you followed Koch's drawing, and he still had to draw 50 parts drawings, which must be completed today." The person Jense pointed to included Huang Xuan. He looked at the other two and walked over.
Kochi has two big eyes. The eye sockets are deep and a pair of sleep is not enough. The appearance of the couple's disharmony, he is disassembling and drawing a big guy into parts. Different parts were carefully placed on the table, and seeing the thick stack of white paper, Huang Xuan suddenly felt how wrong it was to pretend to be recruiting.
Computers will not appear until 14 years later, and CAD-assisted drawing is nothing more. Copying this kind of thing is even more cloudiness, and looking at Koch, he probably won't get parts produced by Ford himself.
Huang Xuan took a deep breath and said, "Lorraine. It's all your life."
It must be believed that human limits can surprise similar people.
Instead of human dilorin, with a silly Huang Xuan, the limit produced is to petrify the Americans present. Such a speed, let alone drawing pictures against the real thing, is to take a picture and copy it. It also reached the highest speed. In fact, the current maintenance speed of Lorraine does not depend on any thinking ability, it is entirely because of Huang Xuandi's muscle endurance. After all, drawing continuously, considering the level of soreness endured by Huang ’s small arm, Lorraine thought he controlled the speed.
However, the speed of less than one part drawing in 10 minutes still made Koch's thick lips thin. All around was silent.
Even the workers who operated the machine tools noticed Huang Xuan, the swaying T-square and the pencils dancing in the air, all of which proved that the Asian youth in front of them had the ability they could not imagine.
Koch looked at the parts drawing painted by Huang Xuan twice, and there was no mistake. Normally, this kind of thing rarely happened. Even skilled workers would inevitably have some problems with the actual drawing. In the three views, the person ’s line of sight is defined as a parallel projection line, and then looking directly at the object, the outline of the object seen is drawn by the orthographic method, which slightly violates the normal consciousness of the person, such as an ellipsoid Its view is actually a rectangle. Therefore, when the parts drawing is complicated, it is not surprising that there are some minor problems.
Huang Xuan narrowed his eyes. In the eyes of everyone, this Easterner was somewhat unpredictable, but these gentlemen did not know that this fellow was closed his eyes and raising his mind.
After a moment of stunned, Thomas shouted angrily, "all cheer up and move faster."
The workers then regained their curiosity and let Huang Xuan wave his arms alone.
Rocky stared at Huang Xuan with strange eyes and patted his shoulders, saying, "The boy is good."
"That's it." Huang Xuan smiled, and his arms were not affected in any way. If there was anything like TV in this era, it would be more perfect.
In just half a day, Huang Xuan conquered his coworkers with Lorraine. In the afternoon, stories about three punches and one punch, and the thrashing of Thomas were spread throughout the workshop. It's a pity that in this era, we don't want to use any magical names like Orientals, otherwise Huang Xuan will get this name first. The factory is Henry Ford's biggest dream. When he was healthy, this was his base camp, but after he stepped down as chairman, his son Edsel Ford settled here. However, Henry still holds the greatest power. Normally, Edsel needs to ask Henry for advice.
Of course, in daily affairs, Edsel still has the biggest say, and Ford's physical condition is no longer suitable for administrative management.
In the design of the A-type car, Edsel was responsible for the internal design of the engine structure and so on. It turns out that the A-type is a successful model. If viewed from the perspective of the new century, this is an Audi series and a Santana series. Hybrid-cheap, convenient, and good quality. Most industrial capitalists in the 1930s had a technical background, just like the computer industry in the 1990s was mostly made up of technology streams. Edsel is also a capitalist who believes in mechanical power.
After lunch, Huang Xuan continued to draw. At this time, his work has been completed. While no one noticed, he quietly drew a few sketches, one of which is the Ford V8 engine sketch, mainly describing its technical indicators. Originally this required hundreds of drawings. Described, but if it is just to be understood, a simple drawing can also explain.
The second one is a classic model-the world's first front-wheel drive car, Citroen TA front drive, this 1934 model successfully launched the front-wheel drive, chassis-less vehicle structure through torsion bar Advanced technologies such as single-wheel suspension and hydraulic braking are integrated. And batch production. And its biggest feature is its reliable performance. Especially when chasing and escaping, this kind of vehicle with obvious advantages is due to its success. Known as "robber car".
For Huang Xuan, it doesn't matter what the pre-TA driver is used by people to do, the point is whether anyone likes it. Although this model is called a new milestone in the history of automobiles after the Ford Model T, the United States itself has been in a state of stagnation for research and manufacturing of front-wheel drive until 1966. That is, 30 years later, cars such as Oldsmobile, Tona, and Cadillac began to use front-wheel drive. Although this is related to its technology and productivity, the issue that must be considered is that before actually seeing a front-wheel drive vehicle, Americans may really not like it.
These drawings are available on P112, and Huang Xuan quickly finished. Just place it under a pile of drawings. At this moment most of the work of the workers has not been completed, so Huang Xuan has the opportunity to watch here for a while.
Although in the 1930s, workers at the Ford plant did not implement a piece-rate system. But because of Huang Xuan's speed and completion of tasks far beyond others, Koch was embarrassed to let him work again, and simply let him wander around in the workshop.
During this period, the development of mechanical technology is about to reach its peak, and the progress of precision machinery is obvious to all. The factory is the first in the pipeline operation. On the other hand, the so-called experts and scholars praise it more for its instant system, even if it is only It is in a budding state, but also greatly improves productivity and reduces costs.
However, Huang Xuan ’s independent workshop cannot see these things. He can only listen to Lorraine ’s explanation while imagining the appearance of this 100,000-acre industrial base. In China nearly a hundred years later, such a large The area is enough to cover several industrial parks.
This stood behind a worker, paying attention to his use of the machine tool, and suddenly someone shouted, "Come." The people at the scene suddenly became busy.
In disguise, Huang Xuan is still relatively good. The current state is very similar to self-study in school. Someone yelled "the head teacher is here". Everyone naturally strives to become strong and study for the rise of China.
Edsel dressed neatly, his eyes sharp and decisive, his steps were firm and powerful, and he had the spirit of a superior. However, Huang Xuan knew that in a few years, he would die in an accident, causing the entire Ford to fall into management chaos. Among them, this is also a major reason why Ford lags behind GM and other groups today. In the world ’s largest war-World War II, Ford faced a daily loss due to its own business problems, which even once attracted Roosevelt ’s attention. Worried that Ford's operating conditions will affect the production of equipment.
As usual, Edsel first talked to several supervisors, then walked around the workshop, listened to the workers, and solved or remembered some problems as much as possible. This will usually take 20 minutes. After doing this, Ford will continue the journey with confidence, which is comparable to the presidential election.
However, when he walked near Huang Xuan, this guy took the V8 engine drawing from the drawings, spread it on the table, and said to Edsel: "Mr. Ford, maybe you are interested in seeing these. "
Rocky glanced badly and explained to the curious Edsel: "Uh, this is our new apprentice recruited today, and his drawings are not bad."
Ford came over with a smile, originally wanted to ask Huang Xuan two words, but after a glance, he forgot to speak.
Due to the rush of production from Type T to Type A, Ford, which has incurred huge losses, began to develop new models very early. At this time, the V8 should have a certain foundation, but the engine drawing drawn by Huang Xuan is completely V8 last. Even Edsel himself did not know that the engine would be designed like this.
"Did you draw?" The picture Huang Xuan produced was very simple. However, although the sparrow was small and had all the internal organs, Edsel, who was of technical origin, had already seen the mystery of it, and he had a little hope in his speech.
"Yes, I have a complete drawing and I promise to use it."
"Where?" Edsel had completely lost interest in continuing to tour at this time.
Huang Xuan shook his head ~ EbookFREE.me ~ said: "I am going to sell it, are you interested?"
"Oh?" Edsel finally entered the state of capitalist at this moment, Huang Xuan took out his pen, and under the operation of Lorraine, he made two more sketches.
This time, it was part of the V8's shape design.
Edsel soon took away the amazement at the speed of Huang Xuan's drawing, because the drawing in front of him seemed to him to be countless bank notes. This is almost a model tailor-made for Ford-of course, it was originally designed by Ford itself. He stared at Huang Xuan for a minute and found no trace of confusion, so he said: "Can we talk? Alone."
"Of course." Huang Xuanben wanted to talk to Ford.
I have to say that this trip is quite smooth. If there is no good luck, Huang Xuan wants to see Ford, or some other big man, it may be more troublesome. There are too few things to do. This is exactly the limitation that Lorraine said. Selling technology is certainly a matter of profit, but the time it takes is often too slow compared to the direct sale of materials. In the 21st century, it takes two years Rare, but for Huang Xuan, it is definitely a race against the clock.
