Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Chapter 864 New Car Development 5

Three satellites have been customized from Americans before, but due to various reasons, they have not been assembled. Now it seems that we need to think of a way, and we can't keep putting it off like this.

At present, the military vehicle project must still be given priority, and other projects can only be delayed. We still need to send someone to urge them, otherwise they will really think that the Black Cloud Group is easy to bully!

There are really only a limited number of companies in the world that can develop and produce satellites. The manufacturer of powerful communication network satellites is even more rare. It seems that we still have to rely on ourselves and can only find solutions from the Soviet side.

If not, these are things for later. Tony Bron has to deal with the communication system and GPS of the new military vehicle, which is the top priority.

Bao Zixuan: "Dr. O'Brien, you will be responsible for connecting with Dr. Tony Bron. Then Bruce will do the technical integration and overall planning."

The two people immediately understood that Oblak was from Heiyun Mobile. The power supply system was just a by-product. It seemed that the communication system was the ultimate purpose of transferring him here. Since the boss has everything figured out, all he needs to do is execute it.

In fact, Bao Zixuan really didn't think that far ahead. He just asked Yoel Engel to send capable personnel to Heiyun Automobile. After seeing Oblak, he made an impromptu decision to add some burdens to him.

Bao Zixuan continued: "How was the power system test?"

The most important thing about a car is the power system, which can be said to be the top priority. Minor flaws in other parts can be adjusted and repaired. Defects in the power system will lead to inherent deficiencies in the vehicle; once a problem occurs, there is no hope of improvement.

The person in charge of the power system did not dare to neglect, and quickly stood up and said: "At present, both engines have been tested and can fully meet the requirements. One of them is diesel-powered with an output of 340 horsepower and can tow 30 tons of weight per day. The speed is 80 kilometers per hour and the mileage is 320 kilometers.”

"The other one is powered by mixed oil. All oils on the market can be used, including alcohol. The power output is maximum when using kerosene, which can reach 300 horses. The rest depends on the oil conditions."

"It's just that hybrid oil-powered engines need maintenance once every 3,000 kilometers; they need major maintenance every 6,000 kilometers; currently, maintenance can only be done in a professional structure, preferably within the factory."

The horsepower of diesel engines is already excellent enough, but I didn’t expect that a hybrid oil-powered engine would be developed. It can definitely play a big role during the war, at least you won't have to worry about logistical supplies.

The participants in the technical seminars were all men of science and engineering, and they all knew a lot about technology. Even if you don’t graduate from the engine major, you still know how important and difficult it is to break through the technology inside.

Now developed by the group, it is at least proven in the engine field. Heiyun has not lost to any company, including traditional German automobile giants.

Bao Zixuan: "Very good, the power problem has been solved. Success is not far away. Now it seems that the engine alone can recover the cost; the rest is earned. I hope everyone can continue to work hard and complete the mission together."

At this time, not only the employees of Heiyun Automobile, but also the engineering and technical personnel sent by Motorola were excited. Black Cloud Technology has done this, and it seems that American car companies are in danger. In fact, there was a female engineer there who was meditating and seemed a little worried.

Hybrid fuel power has always been a dream. Germany also mastered this kind of technology during World War II, but it was not very mature. I don’t know how Heiyun and the engineers did it. It’s simply unbelievable.

The hybrid oil-powered engine was also discovered during the compilation of information brought from Poland. German genius scientists have solved many technical problems, but the war has ended before final verification.

In fact, it is not only hybrid oil engines, but also coal-to-oil technology. It's just that it's a bit troublesome to implement, and now there's only a small team doing in-depth research.

Bao Zixuan does not plan to popularize it in the short term. After all, the cost of converting coal to oil is ridiculously high.

The more he sorted through the information left behind by Germany, the more shocked Bao Zixuan became. From 1936 to 1943, Germany built 11 sets of coal liquefaction equipment. By 1944, the amount of coal-to-oil conversion in Germany reached its peak, with a total of 4 million tons of fuel oil produced through coal liquefaction.

It directly supports two-thirds of the air force and half of the army's fuel, which shows how crazy it is.

However, in comparison, the cost of converting coal to oil is much higher. A conversion plant with an annual output of 1 million tons requires an investment of more than US$1 billion; it consumes 5 million tons of raw coal and 10 million tons of water every year.

If there is no way, who would do the thankless things. After all, oil converted from coal has many inherent shortcomings. Compared with oil refined from traditional petroleum, it has many disadvantages.

This is also the direct reason why German engineers were able to develop a hybrid oil-powered engine; after all, there are many issues with oil to consider. It seems that some things are really forced, at least it is vividly reflected in the German engineers.

Now these are cheaper than Bao Zixuan and Heiyun Group, otherwise it would not be so easy to develop results. It can be said that Mr. Bao is looking at the problem from the shoulders of giants, and his height and distance are enough.

In terms of power, continuous testing is needed, and in the end, experimental data must speak for itself.

As a military product, protection capabilities are very critical.

Bao Zixuan continued to ask: "How is the development of protective armor going? Can it meet the requirements of the US military?"

Although it may not necessarily be developed only for the US military, everything must still be based on their technical specifications. At this time, the U.S. military is authoritative and is the country that can define the combat elements of the next generation of military vehicles.

The safety of military products must be guaranteed, not only the safety of use, but also the safety of operations. Without strong protective capabilities, no country will purchase it. This has nothing to do with relationships and friendships. No one dares to let soldiers use weapons and equipment that pose safety risks. In that case, even if it does not cause a mutiny, it is easy for his subordinates to shoot him.

The army is a major matter for the country and cannot be treated perfunctorily or carelessly. The national leadership and military generals do not dare to take such a big risk and use military vehicles with insufficient armor protection capabilities.

In terms of armor, Bao Zixuan found cooperation with the German companies ThyssenKrupp and ThyssenKrupp. These two companies have absolute authority in this area. At least in terms of armor strength, it is definitely recognized by the world.

This time, Thyssen Company is the main company, and Mia von Lehardt came to the United States as a senior engineer of Thyssen Company. Providing armor materials is only the first step. Without the original factory guidance in processing, it will not be possible.

Although Heiyun Group has mastered titanium alloy processing technology, it is installed on civilian customized vehicles. If titanium alloys were used for the US military, even the Soviets would not agree, regardless of whether the funding would be seriously exceeded. It would be strange if Lao Maozi doesn't fall out with you. This is a matter of principle.

Except for titanium alloys, Bao Zixuan is not very familiar with other metal materials. There is no need to help at all. It is imperative to find strong partners.

The relationship with the Germans has always been good, and Thyssen and Krupp are also very interested in military vehicle armor. At least they can promote their products to the world through Heiyun Group.

Judging from her name, Mia von Reinhardt is from a noble family. It is not surprising for German girls to pursue science and engineering majors. However, it is very rare for a traditional German aristocratic woman to engage in basic materials research, and she is also rare in Germany.

In Thyssen Company, no one dares to take Miss Reinhardt lightly. Mia von Lehardt graduated from the Technical University of Munich with a PhD in basic materials science. I have had a strong interest in metal materials since I was a child, and I majored in basic materials when I was in college. At that time, she was strongly criticized by her family, but this stubborn eldest lady persisted.

In the end, her family couldn't do anything to her. Besides, the political environment at that time was not very popular for nobles. If we insist on sticking to tradition, we may even become the public enemy. It was under this circumstance that Miss Mia von Lehardt completed her studies and successfully obtained her doctorate.

It is not easy to become a chief engineer at the age of only 35, not to mention that this person is still a woman. Before coming here, this young lady was very arrogant, but after coming to Heiyun Automobile, her arrogance gradually disappeared. There are so many talented engineers here. Although they belong to different fields, the results they can achieve are very impressive.

For mixed oil engines, it is more of a fantasy. Unexpectedly, Heiyun Group has developed it and successfully tested it. This is definitely a feat, and at this time he is also worried about the German automobile industry.

The cooperation must be mainly with Heiyun Automobile. This is a task personally assigned by the boss. She has been listening to other engineers report their work, and now it is finally her turn.

Miss Leihart, who has never been willing to fall behind since she was a child, will certainly not disappoint.
