Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 106: Second Automobile Works was born in Beijing ahead of schedule (Subscription Request)
When Yang Ning heard that Hu Yinghong arranged Xu Damao to work in the electric car factory, he just shook his head and smiled, then put the matter out of his mind. He had more important things to do now.

Because the equipment we exchanged for urea steel technology and John Bull has arrived.

John Bull went to great lengths to exchange urea steel production technology with us.

After all, although Hans's production equipment during World War II had begun to become outdated, most of them were military equipment.

If we exchange military equipment with us, and the Eagle Sauce finds out, we will inevitably be punished by them.

Apart from anything else, John Bull will not be able to tolerate it as long as the Eagle Sauce stops its aid to them and secretly supports the younger brothers in their traditional sphere of influence to make trouble.

The reason why they dared to give us the U21 submarine technology was that the technology of this submarine had been thoroughly researched and even the big brother had it.

Even if the Eagle Sauce knew about it, it could just put the blame on Big Brother. It's impossible for the Eagle Sauce to turn against John Bull just for a technology that has been ruined.

But the production equipment is different. After all, Big Brother can't support us with equipment produced by manufacturers that are not in the areas they occupy.

So after they thought about it again and again, they just came up with a whole production line of "Don't Touch Me" cars.

During World War II, Don't Touch Me mainly produced R75 military motorcycles and some aircraft. Automobile production was only a small and insignificant part of the company's business.

From John Bull's perspective now, exchanging these automobile production equipment that they look down upon for a technology that can lay golden eggs continuously is simply a huge profit!

For us, these "don't touch me" production equipment just fills the gap in our automobile production equipment technology.

Now, FAW, with the help of its big brother, is still working hard to develop the production of transport trucks.

Moreover, Big Brother is not willing to support the production of our small cars now. This deal with John Bull is just a timely relief for those of us who are eager to own our own cars.

Now that we have the production line, even if we don't have the technology, we can always do it by following the map, and it just so happens that our talents in this area are maxed out.

In order to avoid irritating Big Brother, we decided to use this production line, based on the Sijiucheng Motorcycle Factory, and integrate the parts factory near Sijiucheng that had previously prepared for FAW to produce cars, and decided to establish Second FAW, which would be specifically responsible for the research and development and manufacturing of our small cars.

Well, Hubei Province is unhappy, and our Second Automobile Works is gone in the future.

This will also provide some compensation to the Sijiucheng Motorcycle Factory, which has just allocated a part of its production capacity to build an electric car factory.

For the Sijiucheng Motorcycle Factory, this was simply a godsend.

Compared with the more niche electric cars, producing cars not only looks high-end, but also if you can design and produce an excellent car, the economic benefits and impact it creates will be much greater than electric cars.

As a result, Yang Ning, who had previously designed the electric car, came into the sight of the leaders of Second Automobile Works.

After all, the electric car designed by Yang Ning can be exported to earn foreign exchange and gain the trust of customers in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia. He should also be able to design an excellent car.

But they knew that Yang Ning studied mechanical manufacturing in college. Although this is a little different from automobile design and manufacturing, there is still some connection between them.

After making up their minds, they submitted an application.

After receiving the application from Second Automobile Works, the higher-ups were in a dilemma for a while.

Although the 103 machine has been put into use and the 104 machine has entered the trial production stage, Yang Ning's importance remains beyond words.

In addition to the atomic project and the person who has already returned to China, Yang Ning will be busy in the future. I don't know if Yang Ning can handle it if he is asked to participate in our automobile research and production now.

If Yang Ning gets exhausted again, it would be more trouble than gain.

But if we can really produce an excellent small car, it will not only greatly enhance our image, but also generate a lot of foreign exchange.

After all, the automobile industry is now the mainstream, and it reflects the development of our industrial manufacturing better than electric vehicles.

"That's a bit greedy. Let's ask Comrade Yang Ning for his own opinion!"

After receiving the notice, Yang Ning agreed without even thinking about it.

He has been almost bored to death during this period. As the 103 machines were gradually transferred to various research institutes, they used their own computers to process the data that were generally unimportant and did not require a lot of calculations.

But even for large research projects, huge amounts of computation need not be processed every day.

Take the heavy water reactor project of the atomic program for example. Since the Chinese Academy of Sciences was allocated two 103 machines, there has been very little data that Yang Ning needs to process.

"Zhao Yang, prepare the car, we are going out for a trip."

After processing the meteorological data sent by the meteorological department today, Yang Ning saw that it was not yet noon, so he decided to go to the Second Automobile Works today to take a look.

"Okay!" Zhao Yang responded and went to ask Director Yang for a car. Since Yang Ning refused the special car treatment again, the higher-ups arranged a special bus for the data processing institute.

Although it was called a public bus, the car was still Yang Ning's original private car, and the driver was still Chen Jingguo, but Yang Ning no longer used this car for personal matters.

Apart from Yang Fengyu occasionally using it, anyone with a discerning eye knew who this car was for.

"Leader, where are you going?"

Seeing Yang Ning getting into the car, Chen Jingguo asked.

"The Second Automobile Factory is the original motorcycle factory." Yang Ning said.

Ever since we learned that John Bull had traded an automobile production line with us, we have started planning the factory buildings for the new automobile factory. The original old factory buildings will be handed over to the electric car factory for use in the future.

Because of lack of time, the new automobile factory has not been built yet, so now the two factories are still getting by together.

"Brother Ning, Brother Ning!" When Yang Ning was registering at the door, he happened to meet Xu Damao who was riding an electric car converted from a bicycle and preparing to go out.

After seeing Yang Ning's car, Xu Damao shouted loudly.

"Of course, he's got an electric car!" Yang Ning looked at the projection equipment behind the electric car and knew that this guy had successfully joined the company.

"That's right. Our factory specializes in producing this. It's very convenient to drive. My dad wanted to use it several times, but I didn't let him because I was afraid he would damage it. After all, this car is owned by the government. What do you think? I have strong principles, right?"

"Every time Shazhu sees me now, he walks away from me."

Xu Damao stopped the car and said proudly.

"You are such a filial son! You are showing off to your father!"

When Yang Ning heard Xu Damao's words, he could imagine the look in Xu's father's eyes as he wanted to kill his son.

Every time I go to the countryside, I have to stick my butt out and pedal my bicycle hard. Not to mention that my son has already got an electric bike, but he doesn’t even use it for himself. So what’s the point of giving birth to you?

As for He Yuzhu's reaction, Yang Ning was not surprised when he thought about the relationship between these two people.

Seeing that his enemy was doing so well, Yang Ning could already imagine how he felt at the moment.

"Zhuzi didn't beat you?" But what Yang Ning found strange was that every time Xu Damao showed off in front of He Yuzhu, he would always be beaten.

But now this kid looks like a decent guy and doesn’t look like he’s been beaten.

"Why would he hit me? I found that since Shazhu got married, he has become very boring. Every time I tease him, he just glares at me. He is not as angry as before."

Good fellow, you shouldn't be called Xu Damao, you should be called Xu Buaicuo Buxiangski, Zhuzi stopped beating you, and you are not used to it? How despicable!
Yang Ning saw Xu Damao's somewhat lonely expression, and he didn't know whether this guy was really mean or was missing his lost youth.

After all, of the three friends who were in the same grade in the school, Yang Ning and Zhuzi have already gotten married, and even Xu Damao himself has begun to contribute to the construction. In a daze, everyone has grown up.

"Are you going to the countryside?" Yang Ning asked.

"Well! We have an electric car. We just need to get there before dark." After hearing what Yang Ning said, Xu Damao started to show off again.

"Watch your belt! If anything goes wrong, don't blame me for not reminding you. Don't blame me for this!"

Thinking about how in the original book every time this guy went to the countryside it was like he was going to the Eight Great Hutongs, I still reminded him quietly.

It is said that this guy became infertile in the end, which was also related to his foolish behavior in the countryside. Yang Ning couldn't bear to see him end up with no family.

"I will be careful and no one will be killed!" After hearing Yang Ning's words, Xu Damao's face became flustered and he quickly spoke in a low voice.

Damn, Yang Ning was so angry after hearing what this guy said. If no one died, it means it was still a mess?
"Go away, and don't look for me if anything happens!" Yang Ning was really convinced, but didn't know what to say.

After all, Yang Ning is not his father. He has already done his best by finding him a job, so he is too lazy to pay attention to this kid.

"Oh!" Xu Damao glanced at the security guard who was looking at him from a distance, responded, and left quickly.

Just when Yang Ning was still speechless about this kid Xu Damao, the leader of the Second Automobile Works came over after being notified by the security guard.

"Comrade Yang Ning, welcome to our factory for technical guidance."
