Xiao Letian listened carefully to the engineers' opinions, and after thinking about it, he found the crux of the problem!
This is purely because the space for imagination has not been opened up. In the final analysis, these people do not have a super bold enjoyment of the future of the automobile industry.
Everyone is thinking about cars in terms of horse-drawn carriages!
All design ideas are very...restrictive!
How big is the wheel of a carriage, must the wheel of a car be big too?
As much cargo as a carriage can pull, does a car have to pull about the same amount?
Does the size of the carriage have to be close to that of the carriage?
The whole design exudes a small-mindedness, and the size is so restrictive. If you look back and your industrial level is not up to standard, why are you waiting? If the cylinder doesn't explode, isn't there something wrong with it?
This is just a layer of window paper. If you pierce it, the sky will be clear!
"Who asked you to design such a small car? How about you designing a sedan? The No. 0 internal combustion engine already has 60 or 70 horsepower, and there will be a new machine with 1,200 horsepower in the future. How can you design such a thin-skinned and big-packed car? What’s the use?”
"Open your mind and change your mind! Be bolder, be more barbaric... I will be stupid, bold and bold!"
"Making it bigger, making it thicker, making it thicker...won't this just go on and on? Wouldn't this mean it will explode?"
"What? Waste of gas? You are right in thinking... What we Chinese people have to solve now is whether there is a problem, not whether it is good or not!"
"Let's focus on practicality first. Why are you worrying about fuel consumption and pollution?"
"To tell you the truth, our automobile industry's initial orders were from the military and factories... This car is not used as a bride's sedan chair. Why are you so delicate?"
"This is work. This is a truck pulling ten tons and twenty tons of goods, and running all over the streets!"
"Make the wheels thicker and thicker for me. I can't afford the rubber. Thicken them. They'll be double-layered and wear-resistant, and they'll increase the air pressure!"
"It's hard to make a shock-absorbing spring. Why don't you make a shock-absorbing steel plate? Can a living person be choked to death by urinating?"
"The gearbox is amplified, the gears are amplified...what are you talking about? It's hard to drive? There are many strong men in our Chinese race, are we still worried about not having enough strength?"
"In the future, drivers will have to take a qualification test. They will first be tested on a hundred pull-ups, a shot put, and a barbell push. If you don't have the strength, you still want to be a driver?"
"That's it. The first thing we should solve is whether it is there or not, and then we can solve it slowly in the end... When the experience matures, in twenty or thirty years, our metal casting technology and mechanical technology will be perfected!"
"In the future, we will produce luxury cars, specially designed for rich people... sell them for one hundred thousand taels of silver and kill these old haters!"
"But now, what I want is a truck that can run freely on the land of China and has some off-road capabilities!"
"In the future, our Chinese army will have to rely on railways and trucks to give us wings! That will truly sweep across the world!"
Xiao Letian almost told them that this was the style of the old Soviet Union. It was silly, big and rough, but reliable and effective. The only drawback was that it was difficult to operate and it consumed fuel!
But this is not important. The military needs trucks to replenish arms and pull soldiers into battles. Every truck can even be turned into a mobile heavy machine gun position, and it can also pull artillery for thousands of miles.
In order to win the war, do you think the military will care about the gasoline money?
What capitalists' factories want is efficiency, in transporting goods and raw materials. This car is a hundred times more efficient than human labor. The extra profit is not enough to burn fuel?
Besides, the oil industry has just started, and what is needed is more oil orders. If you spend a little more oil, the petrochemical factory can sell more. Isn't this a virtuous circle of making money?
Therefore, the most correct choice is to be stupid, big, black and rough. The industrial domineering power of the old Soviet Union is coming back to life at this moment!
This is the prototype of the Chinese automobile industry, a magical car displayed in front of all congressmen!
"Did you know? It has 66 horsepower! Just such a small locomotive is more powerful than the 66 horses combined. How many tons can you say it can pull?"
"Not only that, the scientific research team behind has designed an internal combustion engine with more than 100 horsepower, and there will also be 200-horsepower engines in the future..."
"What kind of lamp is this... a gas lamp? I heard from my nephew who is studying at the Chinese University that a lamp is being developed in the Chinese University, called an electric lamp..."
"I guess I'll have to use this in the future!"
"It's such a thick wheel. Is it solid? It doesn't collapse even if you press it. It's much bigger than the rubber wheel of a rickshaw!"
"Isn't this nonsense? These are called off-road tires. They are thick and wear-resistant. They are no problem running on gravel roads... Look at these stacked steel plates..."
"This is used for shock absorption... Look at the cab again, here is the air horn!"
It was an eye-opener for these congressmen. At this moment, they seemed to have forgotten the purpose of their visit today. Everyone was fascinated by this magical vehicle.
It’s not just the members of the Grand Council who are shocked, the city of Naha is also going crazy at this moment!
Factory Zero shipped six prototype cars at one time. The latest one was sent to the Grand Council, two were sent to Shanghai, two went straight to Tanggu, and one was performing on the streets of Naha!
The trained driver loaded a carriage full of fruits, including pineapples, papayas, mangoes... He also hired four beauties with slits in their cheongsams to shout and distribute fruits to the people along the street.
The streets were empty of people, and even the foreign devils doing business were dumbfounded. This black fart car let out a string of black farts, and then moved steadily on the street. There were several tons of fruit in the car, and it turned out that it was like pulling Walking on flat ground!
The children were laughing and shouting, and ran after the car, with their timid and superstitious mother chasing after them, and the crowd applauded!
"The new thing the Führer comes up with must be right! This black ass car is really powerful..."
The car drove on a flat concrete floor, then on a bumpy stone road, and then on to the outskirts of the city, driving back and forth on the pebbled river beach.
In order to verify the reliability of the car, many people also spread firewood, sugar cane, and even piles of durians and coconuts on the street!
"Ah!" the crowd exclaimed, "What a powerful wheel...it can't even pierce such a big durian! It still drives steadily!"
The Chinese black car became famous instantly, and Naha was excited!
In the Grand Council, Sima Yun submitted a purchase application on behalf of the military, "The Chinese military purchased 800 Dongfanghong No. 1 cars..."
The resolution was passed unanimously. Who can not support the military's war?
Later, Mr. Fan Jian, the old shopkeeper, issued an approval document "Requesting the Great Council to sell some state-owned land...to establish two large automobile manufacturing plants in Tanggu and Shanghai..."
"Investments in automobile factories will be first crowdfunded within the council, and the remaining part will be prepared for stock market financing..."
It was unanimously passed again, and the congressmen went crazy. This kind of original stock, this opportunity to be mixed into a brand-new industry, I am afraid I can only catch up with it once in three lifetimes!
Until the end, Luo Huo handed over the Chinese gold arms sales bill to the Manchus on behalf of Fu Yin'er!
