The actual machine of the LM2500 is temporarily unavailable, but it is not difficult to obtain public information on this gas turbine, and it is even possible to obtain some less core technical information.
Yao Yuan sent a telegram to Ye Minfeng in the United States. Within two days, Ye Minfeng sent back a lot of lm2500 related information to Jichai Power Plant via telex.
Yao Yuan put these data together with those of gt25000 for comparison.
Now that he had made this start, Yao Yuan did not waste time and started the preliminary research himself. He knew that he would most likely follow his family's wishes and obey the state's assignments to work after graduation. In the future, he would spend more and more time in the company.
The less, so he planned to arrange everything in key areas at once.
According to the ideas of Mr. Yao and Yao Zhenhua, it is best for Yao Yuan to be a national cadre. Unlike forty years after the reform and opening up, "the end of the universe is to join the establishment" is to "go ashore". In the early days of reform and opening up, more people advocated "going to the sea".
boss.
In this era, the social status of civil servants is far less high than it would be 20 or 30 years later.
But for the Yao family, the factor of throwing away the official-oriented thinking has already been spent for several lifetimes. The new generation of successors are famous university students, so they should pursue an official career.
At first, Yao Yuan would not consider an official career, but he himself did not expect that the scale of his business would expand to the current scale in such a short period of time. He originally planned to spend ten years to lay a solid foundation, but now it only takes three years.
Then your own plans will need to be adjusted.
If you can make your family happy and do more things for the people of the motherland, it doesn't really matter which path you take.
Based on this, he will be interning after the Spring Festival, and he only has half a year to devote to business matters.
After the relevant information of LM2500 is extracted and put together with that of GT25000, the advantages and disadvantages of the two gas turbines with equivalent power become obvious.
Zhan Chenggui said with emotion, "The technology of the Americans is really nothing to say. This is the gas turbine they successfully developed in the early 1960s. We are still blank in this regard, and are more than 30 years ahead of us."
The United States leads the world in technological development, and they have cutting-edge technologies in various fields. This is a recognized fact. The huge gap makes people feel desperate, but the Chinese people will not despair and will only catch up.
"We will catch up, we will, and it won't take too long." Yao Yuan said confidently, pointing to the information about the LM2500, and said, "The LM2500 gas turbine is developed based on the J79 turbojet engine as a prototype. The U.S. Navy
The air force's fighter jets use a large number of jet engines, and the technology is very mature. This can greatly speed up the development progress. It only took ten years for General Dynamics to develop the lm2500 from project establishment to mass production."
At this point, Yao Yuan paused and said, "Chunfeng Academy of Sciences and Chang'an Aviation Engine Co., Ltd. are collaborating on the localization of Sibei aviation engines. We can learn from this experience and connect several power plant projects to exchange their needs, which can greatly speed up the process."
Development progress. The gas turbine for ships developed by Espey Aero Engine is also performing well."
Since the core technology of lm2500 cannot be obtained, then using the two research projects of gt25000 localization and Spey engine localization as technical reference and learning objects is a way to achieve the same goal.
Nian Haihong was very emotional and said, "This way I will be more confident. Xiao Yao, you have a very long-term vision. I really didn't expect you to have done so much work ahead of time."
"Power plant is the heart of industry. Our country's technical reserves in this area are quite weak. If we don't pay attention to it, it will be impossible to manufacture high-end industrial products. Uncle Nian, this is why I tried my best to bring Jichai back to life."
." Yao Yuan said in a deep voice.
Nian Haihong said with emotion, "Yes, the army wants to develop a new generation of main battle tanks and asked us if we have a suitable high-horsepower diesel engine. Of course we do, but it cannot be installed on the tank and the horsepower is not enough to install it on the tank."
He pointed to the information on the LM2500 gas turbine and said, "Look at the American products. They have neat workmanship, small size, light weight and high horsepower. This is combat effectiveness. This is the embodiment of industrial level. The Soviet Union is also very strong, but just from the GT25000
It seems that there is still a certain gap between them and Americans."
"So we have to be better than our predecessors. When the lm2500 project was first established, we first built an lm1500 with a horsepower of 15,000, and later it was officially equipped with ships with only 25,000. I think we can also adopt this approach.
Let’s fumble around first to create a prototype with a relatively small horsepower, and then make improvements after fully absorbing the experience, taking small steps and running fast.”
Yao Yuan said thoughtfully, "But blind imitation research is difficult to overtake, and it is equally important to persist in researching new technologies. I emphasized at the founding meeting of the Chunfeng Academy of Sciences that our scientists must have a clear understanding, even if we have a large number of products from
We cannot just rely on the Soviet Union’s technical data for research. We must have an innovative direction, aim at cutting-edge technology, and work together toward leading the world’s technological level.”
"That's good." Nian Haihong nodded repeatedly, "Xiao Yao, I can guarantee you that with sufficient financial support, I will be able to build our own large gas turbine before I die."
Yao Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Nian, don't make things so serious. Scientific research is not another job. Besides, when I say no matter the cost, I mean funds, not people. Don't think so."
"I know." Nian Haihong smiled and nodded.
Yao Yuan followed the topic of high-horsepower diesel engines for vehicles mentioned by Nian Haihong and said, "We have obtained some technical information on diesel engine models from the Kharkiv Vehicle Research Institute in Ukraine. Most of the Soviet army's tanks and armored vehicles are
Produced over there.”
After pondering for a moment, Yao Yuan asked, "Uncle Nian, does Jichai Power Plant have the conditions to launch a high-horsepower diesel engine like this?"
"Of course the conditions are there." Nian Haihong suddenly became interested, "With these technical data as the basis, the conditions are very good. Furthermore, Chunfeng Academy of Sciences has five-axis linkage CNC machine tools, and all the equipment in our factory has been upgraded.
, there is no problem with production capacity. However, as a result, Jichai Power Plant will have two key projects, and the financial pressure will be very high."
Zhan Chenggui said, "Our Chunfeng Academy of Sciences can initiate a project for high-horsepower vehicle diesel engines and use the annual budget of the Academy of Sciences. In this way, the funding problem will be solved."
"Xiao Zhan, how much is the annual budget of your Academy of Sciences? Why can't it seem to be used up?" Nian Haihong asked with a smile.
Yao Yuan also smiled and asked, "Yes, how old is it now?"
He also doesn’t know what the current budget of Chunfeng Academy of Sciences is, because it is different every year, but there is a very complicated calculation formula, and the increase is based on this formula. In addition, such as the localization research of gt25000
This kind of key project uses a special budget, and everything is very complicated.
Zhan Chenggui thought for a while and said, "Last year's budget was more than 1.5 billion, and it overspent by more than 300 million. This year's budget was calculated based on 2.5 billion, and it has already been spent. The overspending this year is definitely."
Nian Haihong never recovered.
Yao Yuan frowned, "Does it include overseas parts?"
"Including the budgets of all institutions under the Chunfeng Academy of Sciences." Zhan Chenggui said.
Yao Yuan shook his head slightly, "It's a bit small. If you don't invest enough in the early stage, it will be difficult to keep up later. Lao Zhan, didn't I say there is no cap? Why are you so conservative?"
Zhan Chenggui said helplessly, "We are no longer conservative. Full investment is of course the most important thing. But after all, Chunfeng Academy of Sciences is not a pure research institution. We also hope to be profitable, and our own hematopoietic function must be gradually improved. Since the double-head oil production
After the machine technology is transferred, we have no projects that can directly make profits, only pure expenditures."
At this time, Nian Haihong came to her senses and said in surprise, "A budget of 2.5 billion Chinese coins a year?"
"Yes, Uncle Nian." Zhan Chenggui said.
Nian Haihong was dumbfounded. The total assets of Jichai Power Plant multiplied by 10 would probably be worth more than 20 billion, and such a large sum of money was only the annual budget of the Chunfeng Academy of Sciences!
"Basically all the money I have earned in the past few years has been thrown at Chunfeng Academy of Sciences." Yao Yuan explained with a smile and said, "Uncle Nian, just in time, next year you will take up the daily management of Chunfeng Academy of Sciences and strengthen the way to spend money.
In terms of strength, we started much too late. If we don’t increase capital investment, overtaking on ten thousand roads will be impossible.”
Nian Haihong was confused and said, "The country's annual scientific research funding is not that much..."
"We are a private enterprise. As Chenggui said just now, Chunfeng Academy of Sciences also wants to build hematopoietic function." Yao Yuan said with a smile, "No matter how much we invest, we can get it back in the future. It's just a matter of time."
His eyes switched back and forth between the two types of gas turbines. He pondered for a moment and said, "I have an idea. Please give it a reference. I think we should set up a heavy-duty power research institute to use GT25000, LM2500, and high-horsepower vehicles."
Put three diesel engine projects into it for independent funding management, and then establish a vehicle gas turbine project. Four key projects can support a research institute. Make a scientific research plan and include all heavy-duty power devices."
Zhan Chenggui knew that Yao Yuan would find ways to spend money. Every time he went to the Chunfeng Academy of Science, he would make decisions on the establishment of several projects on the spot, so the scientists were looking forward to his inspection, and this time was no exception.
Yao Yuan said at the beginning that when the Chunfeng Academy of Sciences can spend 10 billion Chinese dollars in research funding every year, the Chunfeng Academy of Sciences will be able to compete with the world's best scientific and technological research institutions.
His algorithm is simple and crude, but it hits the nail on the head.
Yao Yuan's purpose in bringing An Huai over was to integrate the group's supply chain, and Chunfeng Academy of Sciences was no exception. It managed funds in a unified manner and tried its best to ensure that every penny was spent on the real place.
At this time, Nian Haihong came to her senses completely and said seriously, "Xiao Yao, Chunfeng Academy of Sciences is the core asset of Chunfeng Group, right? Southern Industrial, Yuanda Group, etc., are they all ranked behind Chunfeng Academy of Sciences?"
"Yes, Chunfeng Academy of Sciences is the only core asset."
Yao Yuan's meaning is very clear. Even if all other companies disappear, Chunfeng Group will not collapse, and will develop again in a short period of time, because there is a fission machine like Chunfeng Academy of Sciences.
In this era, there are very few entrepreneurs who value technology. People like Zhang Min from Haier Company who dare to publicly smash poor-quality refrigerators are rare nationwide.
Yao Yuan is the only one in the country who attaches great importance to technology and throws a lot of profits into the Chunfeng Academy of Sciences instead of using them to expand production.
After many companies make money, the first thing is to expand. This is real and visible money. Not only does it require heavy investment in developing technology, but there is no profit visible in the short term. In a market environment where supply exceeds demand,
Entrepreneurs have no incentive to develop new technologies.
Nian Haihong deeply felt Yao Yuan's determination and courage to develop technology, and the importance of Chunfeng Academy of Sciences made him have to say, "Xiao Yao, Chunfeng Academy of Sciences is so important, should a more suitable person manage it? I will spend half my life
They all work in state-owned factories, I'm afraid..."
"Uncle Nian, please don't refuse this matter. I believe you." Yao Yuan waved his hand and said with a firm attitude that could not be refuted.
"Uncle Nian, you are the master of process management in the field of internal combustion engines in our country. It is perfect for you to manage Chunfeng Academy of Science. On the contrary, I lack the experience of managing a large organization and am really unable to do what I want. Uncle Nian, please don't refuse." Zhan Chenggui.
explain.
Nian Haihong refused to refuse, and having such a good platform was what he had dreamed of. For scientific researchers, in their 50s, when they have accumulated a lot of experience, Yao Yuan said that this age is the right time to start a career. This is not only
It's a joke, but it's based on facts.
Nian Haihong's strength lies in technical management. When he served as the workshop director of Jichai Power Plant, the quality of Jichai Power Plant's products improved to a higher level because he had in-depth research on production process management.
Let him manage the Chunfeng Academy of Science. Zhan Chenggui, a growing calf who focuses on scientific research, is a perfect match.
Yao Yuan said, "Uncle Nian, you will personally take charge of the Heavy Power Research Institute and Chenggui will serve as the chief engineer and draw manpower from various research institutes. At Jichai Power Plant, Uncle Nian, you have to continue to be the director until the group takes over.
You will officially leave office after your successor is selected."
The two nodded.
Yao Yuan added, "Now that I have rolled out my business, because there is an oil well with a daily production of 100,000 tons in the Sedan Oilfield, and I have made a lot of money on the world's four major stock exchanges, I decided to roll out all heavy-duty power technology in advance.
Research on aerospace power, including aerospace power, don’t we have several Soviet aviation power experts, we must make full use of them. The localization project of the Spey engine in cooperation with Chang’an Aviation Engine Plant is also placed in the Heavy Power Research Institute, so that we can
Carry out unified management. Well, the Heavy Power Research Institute temporarily accounts for funds independently..."
