Chapter 171 A national sensation

Qin Tao has been familiar with the simplest automatic welding equipment in his previous life. To put it simply, it is the same as when touch-screen mobile phones were just popular, and after a few months of use, they need to be calibrated. corners and center of the screen. Now it's just a matter of aligning the device with a few fiducials.

  Under Qin Tao's operation, the gantry moves back and forth, and the automatic welding handle is calibrated.

  Koizumi admired Qin Tao even more, and secretly rejoiced that he repented in time, otherwise, they would not be able to use calibration to handle this, and they would get a bad reputation.

   "Speaking of it, this thing is not difficult. Your automatic welding equipment, that is, the seam tracking technology is more advanced."

"Mr. Qin, you are right. Our equipment has the world's best seam tracking technology!" Koizumi already knew that Qin Tao is definitely a professional in the field of automatic welding, otherwise, the trick here is not will know.

During the welding process, there will be all kinds of strong light, smoke, processing errors, etc. Even if it is an automatic welding equipment, these problems cannot be avoided. Originally, welding was done straight ahead. Who would have thought that there would be deviations in the steel plate during cutting? The seams are not accurate.

  At this time, welding seam tracking technology is needed. The islanders first used advanced sensors to collect various data during welding, and used the spatial parameters of the welding torch and welding objects as standards to monitor welding deviations in real time and then correct them.

  Island countries still have a set of high-tech, you can look at the scientific and technological innovation competitions of college students, domestic ones, get some bicycle axles, and you can participate in the competitions, what about foreign ones? Robot catches eggs...

  Qin Tao glanced at Koizumi: "What is this? It can only be a standard technology in the future. If you can develop automatic programming technology, it will be called a cow."

  Now, although the automatic welding equipment is in place and debugged, it still needs to be programmed and input into the program to perform automatic welding. The advanced concept is to directly input the information of the welding parts of the ship, or even directly input the CAD drawings of the shipbuilding, and input the size of the steel to be used, and then the welding program can be automatically designed, automatically cut, and automatically welded. The efficiency is great. of.

  Koizumi nodded: "We are currently conducting relevant research, and there will definitely be some in the future. Mr. Qin, I admire you very much. What equipment do you need to weld? We can help write the program."

   "No need, these involve our secrets." Qin Tao said.

  It is the unshirkable responsibility of equipment manufacturers to debug equipment, but it is not their job to write programs for the products they produce, which may also involve the secrets of the shipyard.

   "Now, let's enter a simple welding program and test the welding effect. If there is no problem, you can go."

   Throughout the whole process, Cong Ju did not speak. When Qin Tao came, Cong Ju stood there silently with complicated eyes.

  Automated welding starts.

   In the eyes of everyone, sparks fly, and automatic welding can be carried out without human operation!

   No need to smell choking smoke, no need to worry about the harmfulness of welding sparks to the eyes, this kind of equipment is great!

   After seeing off the islanders, Cong Ju walked to Qin Tao's side and spoke in a heavy tone.

   "Boss Qin, I didn't handle this matter well. You can criticize me, punish me, and deduct my salary!"

This matter was handled by Cong Ju without Qin Tao's intervention. After all, Qin Tao entrusted her with the task of welding the MOSS tank of natural gas, and she must complete the task satisfactorily, and Qin Tao cannot be allowed to do everything by himself. .

  Who would have thought that there would be such a big mistake.

   Directly spent two million dollars to buy equipment from the islanders. This is Qin Tao's absolute trust in Cong Ju. As a result, the islanders almost cheated him of the commissioning fee.

   "Sister Cong Ju, I think it's better for you to call me Taozi when there is no one else. I'm not used to this kind of address, and it seems that we are born."

   "Boss Qin, we are already a big group now, and we must have the necessary rules. Even if we have a good personal relationship, you can't tolerate me too much. It will be detrimental to your prestige."

"Sister Cong Ju, if I have to take the people around me to gain authority, then I would rather not be the person in charge. My prestige does not depend on this. As long as I can lead everyone to make a lot of money and live a good life, everyone will naturally obey me. "Qin Tao said: "Besides, I can't blame you for this matter. It is the first time I have dealt with foreigners and completed the introduction of equipment. I am very satisfied, but there is a small problem in the end."

  Cong Ju smiled bitterly, a million dollar blackmail, is this a small problem? Even if it was replaced by Huating Shipyard, someone would have to take the blame.

   "Sister Cong Ju, this matter is over, but we still have to analyze the reason, do you know why?"

Cong Ju knew what Qin Tao wanted to say, she took a deep breath, and then said: "Mr. Qin, after our equipment is in normal operation and we have successfully welded a qualified MOSS tank, I will take this year's college entrance examination." , actually, I’ve been teaching myself all this time.”

   I still have a low culture, Cong Ju must enrich herself and go to college!

  Qin Tao nodded: "Sister Cong Ju, you don't have to worry about things in the factory when you are in college. You can just stay in the factory during winter and summer vacations."

  Cong Ju's heart was full of emotion.

  No matter when you are, you must be a literate person. No matter at any time, you can't give up learning.

   "I will definitely study hard, and when I deal with foreigners in the future, I must not be deceived by foreigners."

   "Sister Cong Ju, your ideals are too small."

"What?"

   "It's nothing if you can't be fooled by foreigners. If you have the ability to trick foreigners around, that's called skill." Qin Tao said.

  Cong Ju smiled, not everyone has this ability, and only people like Qin Tao have this kind of strength!

   "By the way, Qin Gong, in the future, our shipyard will have more business, including ship repairers and shipbuilders. At present, the equipment in our factory still needs to be updated." Cong Ju said.

   "Gantry crane?"

Cong Ju nodded: "Our floating dock can repair tens of thousands of tons of ships, so we also need an advanced heavy-duty gantry crane with a lifting weight of about 1,000 tons. However, a gantry crane of this level, The quantity is very small, currently in China, only the Bincheng Shipyard has it.”

Qin Tao nodded: "Yes, if we want our shipyard to develop, we must have a large-scale gantry crane. This kind of hardware equipment is necessary, but if it is purchased from abroad, it is very expensive. "

  If it comes to later generations, what is a thousand-ton gantry crane? Almost all gantry cranes in the world are produced in the motherland.

When that Oreo stood in front of the shipyard and made provocative words for the motherland, the cover on the gantry crane behind him was blown away by the wind, revealing the big Chinese characters, and slapped him hard in the face hand.

  The third brother next door often compares with his motherland, so he would rather buy a second-hand gantry crane from the UK at a high price than from his motherland. As a result, after buying it back, he found that this gantry crane was also madeinChina.

The British are very cunning. They buy gantry cranes from their motherland, build their aircraft carriers, and then sell them to Ah San at a high price, which is equivalent to buying gantry cranes for nothing. However, when their aircraft carriers need maintenance, they find out that there is no thousand tons Level gantry cranes are available.

   These are all things to show the country’s prestige, but that is the 21st century. Now the country can produce a maximum of 200 tons of gantry cranes. Don’t even think about this kind of thousand tons!

  If outsourcing, where should I buy it from?

"Let's go to a foreign shipyard and buy second-hand goods that the other party doesn't want at a low price." Qin Tao said: "We can let the wind out first, so that people will come to us. We shop around and choose the cheapest Yes. Even if they sell it for one or two million dollars, it’s better than blowing it up.”

Qin Tao is really right. In the past few years, the freight industry around the world has entered a period of depression. Many shipyards are restricted. There is a 900-ton gantry crane in Sweden, which has been idle for a long time and cannot be sold. Go out, so, in the end, they were so heartbroken that they were blown up directly.

   I don't understand why, is it because I feel upset every day?

   "If you buy this kind of gantry crane second-hand, it will be very difficult to dismantle it." Cong Ju said: "Sister Cong Ju, you seem to be very familiar with it. Do you want to leave this task to the next? Deal with foreigners and practice?"

  Qin Tao was just joking, but unexpectedly, Cong Ju took it seriously.

   "Where you fell, you have to get up from where you fell. If you are fooled by contact with foreign countries, then contact a few more times and praise the experience. But this time, Mr. Qin, you have to check for me."

  Qin Tao nodded: "Of course."

Qin Tao's technical strength is getting stronger and stronger, but he is still very busy. The automated cutting and welding equipment needs to be programmed. At the beginning, Qin Tao can only do it by himself, and the design department also needs his ideas. Very busy, other factories of the group also report to him from time to time.

   One month later.

  The automatic welding machine stopped slowly, and the last seam was finally welded. What appeared in front of everyone was a gleaming aluminum alloy spherical tank!

   "Successful, the welding is finally completed!" Everyone at the scene sighed excitedly.

  Thanks to these automated equipment, otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible for them to weld such a behemoth in such a short time! Moreover, the whole welding process is very labor-saving. In most cases, they just need to watch it.

   "Hurry up, report this news to Mr. Qin." Cong Ju was also very excited.

   As soon as the words fell, Qin Tao's voice rang out: "I'm here! I also brought comrade reporters."

   Behind Qin Tao, a large group of reporters followed. With cameras in their hands, they snapped pictures of the spherical tank.

   There were even a few with cameras. One of them, a beautiful female reporter who was often seen on TV, held a microphone with a CCTV logo and introduced it to the camera.

"Dear audience, today we came to Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group, and now what appears behind me is the most important MOSS tank of a liquefied gas ship known as the crown of a civilian ship. As far as we know, this is the first domestically produced tank. A moss jar, it marks us taking off this crown!"

(A lot of information says that liquefied gas ships have been built in China in 1991, but there is no detailed information. I don’t know whether it is a liquefied natural gas ship or a liquefied petroleum gas ship. I don’t know what form it is. It is definitely not Invar. It is still after entering the new millennium to make invar steel membrane boats. So here the laurels will be sent to the protagonist.)

"Mingzhou Shipyard has made a lot of hard work in order to achieve zero breakthrough, including these automatic welding equipment, which are imported from abroad with self-raised funds. Now, let us interview the person in charge of Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group, Qin total."

Qin Tao smiled, facing the camera, this kind of scene was nothing to him at all, he was not at all nervous: "Our Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group, under the wise command of the D Central Committee, is leading at all levels Thanks to the kind care of China, a new breakthrough has finally been achieved. We are very happy that we can break the monopoly of foreign countries. We know that natural gas is a clean energy source. Our country has also become a natural gas importer since last year. We need a large number of We firmly believe that the quality of our products has reached the same level as foreign ships, and the price is only 80% of that of foreign ships of the same level..."

   This kind of free advertisement, of course, has to be used. If it is cut off during the post-production of the other party, there is no way, at least Qin Tao has to say it now.

  Although they have produced the first MOSS tank in China, users may not be at ease! Therefore, this first liquefied gas ship can only be engaged in a price war. As long as the first ship is sold and operated well, there will be a steady stream of future orders, even if the price remains the same as that of foreign countries.

  Of course, the foreign price is 20% off, and the profit is huge.

   "Now, we have only mastered the production technology of this key MOSS tank, but it is only a part of the liquefied gas ship. The overall design of this ship is also very important, right?" the beautiful female reporter continued to ask.

  Qin Tao raised a model in his hand. Although it was done in a hurry, it was still realistic.

"Everyone, this is the liquefied gas ship we designed. There are four spherical tanks on it, with a total capacity of 150,000 cubic meters. For a big city like Huating, it can meet the needs of all residents for a month." Qin Tao said: "Although our Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group is not as famous as those big shipyards, we are also very good in the professional field. Catamarans, dredgers, and liquefied gas carriers are all our main products. "

  That night, the XW broadcast took an unprecedented three minutes to broadcast the story of Mingzhou Shipbuilding Industry Group developing a liquefied gas ship. In an instant, related industries across the country were sensational.
