Chapter 49: small machine

Gossip is like this. After the parties did not have anything happened, no one paid attention. Moreover, the three people in the incident were not Hollywood stars or international politicians. Everyone was single men and women, and soon they would not pay much attention. The people in the dormitory occasionally made fun of it, but it was calm outside.

Under the strong research and development team of MIT, the first small machine tool was finally produced. Looking at this CNC machine tool that weighs only 1.5 tons, but can process 6 sides, with the cooperation of the cad industrial software written by Bao Zixuan, it can process parts with a length, width and height of no more than 50 cm. The machining accuracy is within the controllable range of 1 micron. Bao Zixuan knows that they have developed products that are at least 15 years ahead of this era. The only downside is that the current productivity is so low that it can only be produced in the MIT laboratory.

In the future, these machine tools will be enough to produce computers, telephones and some other small electronic products, but now the first thing to solve is how to ensure mass production and transport the machine tools back to Xiangjiang safely.

At this time, Professor Bruman came over and said: "How about, Bao, your software combined with my machine tool is definitely a match made in heaven. Its function is more than what you see. If we want to make it work at full strength, it can be used in an hour. Process at least 100 uncomplicated products. If there are 100 of these machines, it will be worth a factory of 1,000 people.”

"The function is indeed very powerful, but let alone 100, we don't have 10, and now there is only one. It is not enough to rely on a lathe. We need to speed up the progress of CNC drilling machines, CNC washing machines, CNC grinding machines, and CNC boring machines. And the research and development of a small CNC machining center." Bao Zixuan looked at the machine tool and said.

Bruman: "You are right. Others are already being developed. We have a strong theoretical foundation. I will complete them all within a month, but the machining center is a bit troublesome. After all, there are too many workpieces involved. We have to order on a large scale. Only in this way can we speed up the development progress. Besides, you have to invest additionally. The raw materials we purchased are almost exhausted. But we can produce about 30 machine tools now. And using MIT The equipment must also be paid for. After all, this is not a scientific research project of the school.”

Bao Zixuan: "I will add 10 million US dollars, and all the people involved will be rewarded with an additional 20,000 US dollars today. After all the work is completed, there will be more generous bonuses waiting for everyone. How much money you can get depends on you. contribution to this work."

Hearing that everyone is rewarded with $20,000, it is not bad for the four employees of Heiyun, who lead a lot of work every month. But that's not the case with Professor Bruman's assistants. These doctoral students can only get a pitiful stipend every month. $20,000 is more than what I received last year. Everyone cheered together.

Professor Bruman: "Bao, you are really a generous boss, but for the production problem you mentioned, we can place orders in multiple companies, and produce the core components ourselves; and then assemble them in your own factory. Only in this way can we It is guaranteed that the data of the machine tool will not be leaked.”

Hearing Professor Bluman's words, Bao Zixuan's eyes suddenly widened, right! We can place orders in all capable factories around the world, and then complete the assembly in the factory in Hong Kong.

Bao Zixuan: "You have said a lot, but I still want to trouble you to list the detailed technical parameters of the parts that are not very important. We are going to place orders all over the world."

After contacting Larry Brown, the barrister personally came to the Bruman Laboratory of MIT, and registered all the data of several machine tools and some important components and control systems for patents, and could only use the black cloud. registered in name. He was afraid that when the profits were too large, many people would make some fools.

With a satisfactory answer, Bao Zixuan came to the company. I took a look at the development of the Walkman. With Clay-Freeman's powerful electronic level, he explained that his task has been completed. The reduced version of the recording head and amplifier circuit has reached the production requirements, and the cost can be controlled within 12 US dollars. Inside, this is indeed no small achievement.

However, the most important thing is the production of machine tools. To be on the market before Christmas, it must be put into production before December 5, but the number of CNC machine tools does not meet the requirements at all.

Thinking of this, Bao Zixuan called Bao Tingting, who was far away in Xiangjiang, to inquire about the construction of the Xiangjiang factory, and learned that the first phase of the plan had been completed. I was surprised at the speed of Xiangjiang construction workers in this era. After all, it only took about 2 months from the start of construction to the present. In fact, it’s no wonder Bao Zixuan was surprised. After all, the construction of the entire real estate does not have the same constant cost as him. He works 24 hours a day, and he passed the inspection and did not owe a penny of the project payment, which made several construction companies in Xiangjiang black. Work on the cloud's construction site. This is why Heiyun Games is supported by the huge profits generated by these two games. Other companies do this long ago.

He explained to Zhao Tingting about the Heiyun Machine Tool, and told him that he must reserve enough workshops for the Walkman and the machine tool. Bao Zixuan wants to build an automated Walkman production line to ensure that it can produce and assemble about 10,000 Walkman units a day, which is really printing money.

Small CNC machine tools only plan to be digested internally in the next 2 to 3 years, and have no intention of exporting. After all, their overall competitiveness is not as good as those of companies that have been famous for a long time. It is definitely not enough to develop only by relying on your own advanced vision. After you have laid a solid foundation, you can break your arms with these mechanical manufacturing overlords.

I called Gu Gu Jiro to his office. Gu Gu Jiro has been very busy recently. As the director of the North American hardware development department, he not only has to follow up on the development of the Walkman, but also cooperate with the assembly of small CNC machine tools at any time. Seems to have lost a lot of weight.

Bao Zixuan: "Gu Gucheng has been working hard recently. I want you to go on a business trip to your hometown this time. But you only have one day to go home and have a look. After all, after the RB work is completed, you will go to Xiangjiang to supervise and cooperate with that. Bian Factory Construction At present, you are the only person in the entire company who fully understands the various conditions of CNC machine tools and Walkman. You bring 4 technicians to cooperate with you, and then I will call the Xiangjiang Factory Construction Department to fully support you You will be the first factory manager of the CNC machine tool and Walkman joint factory. You can recruit RB engineers and workers in large quantities when you go back this time. The company's RB branch and lawyers will cooperate with you. Our production lines are all CNC products. With the current ability of Heung Kong workers, they can only do the most basic work. I know your ambition is in the field of scientific research, but now there is no one in the company who can reassure me. I will definitely transfer you to work in the laboratory in two years, as long as you are willing. "

Gujojiro: "Don't worry! Your Excellency President, I will definitely finish this job. If someone like me works in RB, it will take 10 years to get promoted to the current position step by step. I have surpassed most of my peers. I Very satisfied."

The two talked about some precautions in production and the overall planning of the factory, mainly considering handing over machine tool parts to several factories for production. In fact, he also thought about letting West Germany OEM part of it, but the distance is too far. All in RB production confidentiality is almost a little bit! The current status quo can only be so.

Bao Zixuan arranged for Zhang Zhan to accompany Gucheng Jiro to RB to prepare for the production of the machine tool with the data drawings and the size of the machine tool parts to be ordered. In fact, it also has a role of supervision.

The United States produces all precision parts and purchases the computer chips and other important equipment needed in a unified manner. As long as it is the latest model complete machine, chips and other supporting facilities that can be purchased on the market, Black Cloud Company will spend a lot of money to buy it, which has led to a certain extent. Accessories are out of stock and prices are rising. The price Heiyun pays for this is that its cash reserves are dwindling at a rate that is already visible to the naked eye.
