Chapter 94: Slap Boeing's face hard (3)

The noisy admission lasted until 10:30 in the morning. In view of the fact that there were so many bidding projects, the entire event was carried out simultaneously according to several company branches and product categories.

The most unspectacular thing is the display of container freighters. No factory is willing to spend millions of dollars to develop a new hull that has not been fully verified. Besides, there is no time and the conditions are not sufficient in all aspects.

Apart from some miniature models, there are only two types of 3,000-ton and 5,000-ton cargo ships that Zhu Bin paid for and modified. They are berthed at the dock, filled with empty containers of various sizes from Jiangnan Shipyard, and are waiting to be built.

Final overall system demonstration.

Next came the selection of carrier vehicles. There were more than a dozen manufacturers participating in the exhibition, mainly from the United States, Germany, Italy, France and the United Kingdom. Surprisingly, the Naval Vehicle Factory under China's Naval Equipment Technology Research Institute

We also took out a prototype car to participate, but among the thousands of people present, no one knew where this factory was. When would China be able to build a vehicle with such extremely high technical requirements?! Look at the marks on the tires.

, they are clearly assembled goods!

It is naturally Zhu Bin's knock-off product, but as the saying goes, participation is important. Your coming means that you have the opportunity and ability to participate in the grand event, and you can legitimately participate in sharing the cake in the future!

Major countries have different authorizations to manufacture prototypes. In the United States, the arrogant General Motors and Ford both came with their own products, but the load capacity was around 2.5 tons. Actual loading experiments show that it can still pull 5 tons of cargo.

It runs and the performance is not bad. Similarly, GMC and Dodge brands have also come up with similar products. They are new products that have not been launched to the market but are already under development. However, they are different from the Zhu Bin model in terms of appearance and performance.

The prototype cars were compared with each other.

The only company in the United States that manufactures prototypes in full accordance with the authorized drawings is IWC Combine Harvester. With its strong production capacity and technology accumulation, it not only built the original prototype given by Zhu Bin, but also ingeniously designed it with a dozer blade on the front.

There is a hydraulic crane at the back, which can tow large-caliber heavy artillery, and even be transformed into a crawler-type model with a weighted chassis and external armor. There are more than ten types in total. Not only the exhibitors, but also the instigator Zhu Bin were shocked. The Americans can

What a capable person!

On the German side, the main manufacturer is Mercedes-Benz, which has relatively advanced trucks and diesel models. This time it has produced several of its own products and authorized products, and their performance indicators basically meet the bidding requirements. It can be said that on the German side,

The market share has fallen into their hands. In contrast, French Renault and Italian Fiat are relatively miserable. They came excitedly with their own products, but were shocked to find that there were competitors stronger than them all over the world, and their European market share was left behind.

There are really not many opportunities given to them.

What is more eye-catching is that the lv70 series trucks from Sweden's Volvo Company are very close to the ideal model given by Zhu Bin in terms of design, performance, and indicators, with fully enclosed cabs, hydraulic brakes, and metal wheels.

, pneumatic tires, high axle load chassis suitable for harsh rural and urban road conditions, high-power 6-cylinder engine provides strong power, flexible configuration of dual-axle or three-axle, equipped with four-speed gearbox, it can be said that it has met all standards

The only disadvantage of the big truck is that its engine power is slightly weaker. Therefore, facing the huge snow plow market, its 75bhp pre-valve gasoline engine seems to be inadequate, and Zhu Bin's 110hp engine is much better.

What is particularly amazing is that Volvo was able to withstand the controversy around the world and come up with a flat-nosed truck style for the first time that puts the engine mechanism under the butt of the cab. Conservative Americans think that only pointed-nosed cars with the engine in the front

It is considered a traditional truck, but it is obvious that this flat-head structure is easier to solve the axle load pressure problem in bad road conditions than the pointed-head structure. Volvo is undoubtedly ahead of everyone.

The arrogant British people are embarrassed that they have not come up with a commendable product. They will never admit the so-called products designed by the Chinese. The prototype car provided by the old manufacturer Foden at the exhibition cannot run very far in bad road conditions.

Compared with the original cars from other countries, they are much inferior, and it is very shameful to lose. If you want to win this huge order from the British mainland and colonies, you must find another way, or hold your nose and buy a patent license.

Some are happy and some are worried. Most manufacturers had no reason to accept the authorization in the first place. They all believed that trucks of 5 tons, 10 tons or even larger would have no place to run in a few years. The road conditions did not allow it and the market did not need it. But in June,

The most promising candidate of the American Democratic Party, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and Adolf Hitler, the banner of the German National Socialist Party (i.e. the Nazi Party), when expounding their policy strategies, invariably mentioned the need to solve the huge problem of

To solve the problem of unemployed people, we should vigorously launch infrastructure construction to stimulate domestic weak basic industrial production and promote a comprehensive recovery. Road construction has become a very important aspect, including large dams and other facilities. Without exception,

Large-scale civil engineering projects require a large number of heavy-duty trucks and engineering vehicles - the future market is huge!

However, it was a little late for them to regret it. The bidding meeting in Shanghai was about to be held. They wanted to contact the "Global Communication" company to discuss cooperation and technology licensing, but it would definitely not lead to good results. If they rushed to participate in the competition with their own products, they would be in trouble.

One's hope was completely defeated in the desperate struggle around the world!

And in the end, China's Naval Automobile Factory hung a huge trailer behind the only prototype car and pulled five tons of cargo. It dragged an unprecedented load of ten tons in total and ran happily around the place, making everyone happy.

People were stunned!

IWC, Mercedes-Benz, and Volvo, as expected, received the first batch of orders. General Motors and Ford were crazy with jealousy—the total number was actually tens of thousands! More than the total truck sales in the world combined!

Another lively bidding project is the weapons and equipment of the defense company. Originally, this matter did not require the labor of others. A bunch of foreign banks among the shareholders are all agents of various gun dealers, and the purchase volume is also very limited--Defense

The company's first batch of employees totaled less than 10,000 people, and they were divided into four departments. The field department with the greatest demand only had 5,000 people, so the competition was not very fierce on the surface. But as a world-class weapons exhibition, it gathered thousands of people.

There are hundreds of various types of light and heavy weapons, including hundreds of rifles, more than a dozen light machine guns, and more than a dozen artillery guns. Some people even dragged in heavy artillery with a caliber of more than 150mm, which filled a hall.

Spectacular!

This time, Chinese products shine again. The Naval Equipment Technology Research Institute and Jiangnan Shipbuilding Institute jointly launched a series of products, including the civilian Type 21 semi-automatic rifle with a 10-round magazine, which is manufactured with a combination of Browning bar and German mg30

, a general-purpose machine gun using 50, 100-round drums and 250-round ammunition belts, a 13+1-round 9mm version of the m1911 pistol, a modified beyond recognition roller-fed Mauser C96 submachine pistol, and a copycat version of the Browning m2hb.

It opens people's eyes.

Secondly, a soft bulletproof vest made of the mysterious "Shilong" fiber and a 6mm thick manganese steel alloy insert plate can withstand almost all pistol and submachine gun shooting, as well as scratches from shell fragments, etc., if

Replacing it with an expensive 5mm "Titania alloy" plate, it can withstand mainstream bullets below 8mm on the battlefield, which is really awesome! But the price is not that expensive either!

The most outstanding ones are the various types of landing craft and landing ships specially developed for amphibious operations. The semi-finished 20-ton, 100-ton and 200-ton ships were produced in a surprise attack. Driven by diesel engines, they slowly rushed onto the river beach, and the steel gate opened.

At the same time, the scene of heavily armed soldiers, open-top cars with anti-aircraft cannons, heavy tanks and trucks rolling out made countless people at the scene almost stare out of their eyes!

Is there anything wrong with this! Can landing operations be played like this?! Does your so-called defense company need such powerful firepower? What kind of trouble do you want to cause!

The arms dealers were collectively dumbfounded and quickly figured out how to seize related products and technologies, especially the Americans and British. The Marine Corps was a big spender in their families! Japan was hidden in the crowd.

Not to mention the people, the "click-click" of the camera was so joyful, and at the same time, my mind kept asking, "Hello, what do the Chinese people want to do?"

The busiest and most competitive venue is undoubtedly the aircraft area. When the host announced that the bidding reports were closed and all manufacturers could let go of product display, the huge steel structure greenhouse was separated by gypsum boards and wooden walls.

The various manufacturers opened the tarps one after another and showed off the real ones. The confident William Boeing smiled easily and casually glanced at the conservative European manufacturer display area, calmly expressing disdain, but finally saw Curtis Wright and

When I entered the booth of China United Aircraft Manufacturing Factory, my complexion suddenly changed, my body swayed twice and I almost fell!

"This is impossible! When did they build such a plane?!"

William Boeing almost shouted out of control, threw away the hand that was being held by his entourage, and desperately squeezed through the crowd and rushed to the front of the stall. His eyes widened across the table, staring intently at the seemingly tall stand standing proudly inside.

As for the extraordinary low-wing, all-metal, single-engine, single-seat fighter, the wooden sign erected in front of it clearly marked its model - C21!

"...wingspan 11.2 meters, length 8.9 meters, height 2.5 meters, empty weight 1750 kg, maximum take-off weight 2100 kg, maximum flight speed up to 470 kilometers, range 1380 kilometers, using Wright R-1820FC Tornado 9 engine, output power

850 horsepower?! Ceiling limit...10,000 meters! Range...1,300 kilometers?! This! This is impossible!"

William Boeing couldn't read the following introduction anymore. He just felt exhausted all over, his legs were weak and he wanted to sit directly on the ground. The amazing performance of the aircraft in front of him directly smashed his inflated confidence into pieces!
