In the end, Zhang Yu followed Xugong to the Red Star Gun Factory.
XCMG summoned the technical staff in the institute.
"Everyone, because our Type 63 problem has never been solved."
"So, this time I specially invited Comrade Zhang Yu as our technical consultant."
In fact, when the technicians came to the conference room, some older technicians immediately recognized Zhang Yu.
After all, in those few years, Zhang Yu could say that he swept through the weapons research institutes in the entire Forty-Nine Cities.
If they hadn't been transferred from their posts due to some things, their Red Star Research Institute would have closed down long ago.
However, now that Zhang Yu can serve as their technical consultant, this is something worth celebrating.
The technicians took the lead and welcomed Zhang Yu's arrival with warm applause.
Zhang Yu raised his hand to suppress it. When the applause stopped, Zhang Yu spoke.
"This time I came to Red Star Firearms to solve a problem."
"I won't say any more polite words, but for a while, what I say will be difficult to hear. I hope everyone can listen to it calmly.
"As for the Type 63 automatic rifle, I also studied it at the beginning."
"There are a lot of problems with this gun, but those are not problems in my opinion."
"To put it bluntly, it's not that I don't look down on Red Star Firearms. I'm confused as to why such a simple problem has not been solved for 15 years..."
Before Zhang Yu could finish speaking.
The technicians below immediately got angry and stood up to reprimand Zhang Yu.
"Gong Zhang, don't belittle our efforts just because you have several excellent guns."
"Everyone knows that there is no simple success in military industry research."
"We invited you here to solve the problem, not to let you talk nonsense here."
The person who spoke angrily against Zhang Yu was a young technician. It seemed that this technician was very interested in the reputation of the Red Star Firearms Institute.
But when Zhang Yu heard this, he couldn't help but sneer at the corner of his mouth.
"Hey, why are you so angry?"
"I just said this and I can't bear it."
"You don't want to hear my nonsense, you can figure it out yourself!"
"It's been 15 years, what have you solved?"
"You can't even solve a simple stuck problem. How dare you stand here?"
"Why, I can't point out the problem yet. I kindly remind you that there is still one month before the time stipulated by the Ministry of Armed Forces."
"If the Type 63 cannot be solved, the Red Star Firearms Institute will probably close down."
"So, please sit down now and listen to me carefully, otherwise you can get out of this room on your own."
Zhang Yu's words were not cruel, they were just disrespectful and did not save any face.
"Also, I can come here today because of Xugong's sake."
"But I also don't want to see engineering staff because you lose face."
Looking at the silence, the stubborn man also sat back on the stool amidst the scolding of the old technician.
Zhang Yu asked XCMG to find him a Type 63 automatic rifle and disassemble the gun on the spot.
"Based on my understanding of this gun back then, there were three problems with this gun."
"First, the magazine interface ruler and the clips do not match. In the past, for the convenience of maintenance, the Type 63 directly used 56-charge magazines."
"Second, the strength of the recoil spring is not enough. Due to problems with materials, craftsmanship, and even processing, the strength of the Type 63's recoil spring is unstable. During high-intensity shooting, the recoil spring cannot be fully reset."
"Third, the bolt tolerance is too large, which results in insufficient sealing of the equipped receiver. At the same time, the firing pin is not strong enough. During automatic shooting, the needle is easily bent due to insufficient strength and cannot be reset."
The technicians here are all aware of these problems, but have never found a solution.
At this time, an older technician stood up and asked Zhang Yu.
"Gong Zhang, we all know the problems you mentioned, and we want to know now how to solve them."
"Gong Zhang still has a problem. It's not just a design flaw, it's also a problem in production. Our subordinate factories don't have enough production capacity, but the production and manufacturing tasks assigned by our superiors were several times the production capacity."
Zhang Yu waved his hand to interrupt the technician.
"In my opinion, this issue is the least of the issues."
"As long as we strictly follow the process design drawings, the processing problems will naturally be solved."
"Production quality problems are easy to solve, but material problems such as the recoil spring and firing pin are difficult to solve."
Mentioned material issues.
Everyone present had a grim look on their faces.
They also know about this problem, but the problem is that it doesn't exist now.
Zhang Yu ignored what they were thinking and continued to explain his solution.
"According to my idea, molybdenum, vanadium and other alloying elements are added to the spring to increase the strength of the spring steel; and tungsten and molybdenum alloying elements are added to the firing pin."
"Of course, since I brought it up, I have a way to solve it."
"Don't forget, what is my current position?"
After Zhang Yu reminded everyone, everyone remembered that Zhang Yu is now the director of the machinery factory.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Zhang Yu knew that they remembered his current identity.
Zhang Yu continued to talk about his next restructuring method.
As the story unfolded, everyone was completely convinced of Zhang Yu.
It was unanimously decided to appoint Zhang Yu as the person in charge of this restructuring.
Xugong looked at Zhang Yu expectantly. Looking at such expectant eyes, Zhang Yu could only nod and agree.
The next step is to solve the problem of materials, which is the top priority.
Whether this gun can be successful depends on whether the materials are good or not.
Zhang Yu simply placed the order to his own machinery factory, thus gaining another business for the machinery factory.
Zhang Yu gave the material formula to Sun Gong and others and asked them to produce according to the above instructions.
Then Zhang Yu came to the factory affiliated to Red Star Firearms.
Zhang Yu wants to adjust the precision of the machine according to the needs of the gun.
XCMG brought Zhang Yu to the workshop, and workshop director He Hongtao greeted him.
Entering the workshop, the sound of metal molds colliding is even louder.
In the Su style brick-and-wood structure factory building, the light is not very bright.
More than twenty punch machines of various models are lined up directly on both sides of the workshop.
"Zhang Yu, let me introduce to you. This is the workshop director of this workshop, Comrade He Hongtao."
"Mainly responsible for the production of Type 63 automatic rifles."
"Comrade He Hongtao, this is Comrade Zhang Yu. Comrade Zhang Yu will serve as the chief designer of the Type 63 automatic rifle in the coming days."
"All personnel in the institute, including myself, are under the command of Comrade Zhang Yu."
As soon as He Hongtao heard the words Zhang Yu, his eyes immediately lit up.
Because the two characters Zhang Yu represent a legend in the firearms industry.
Only later, He Hongtao heard that Zhang Yu had left the firearms design industry due to job transfer.
Unexpectedly, He Hongtao did not expect to see Comrade Zhang Yu in the workshop today.
He Hongtao stretched out his hands, held Zhang Yu's right hand and shook it constantly.
"Comrade Zhang Yu, on behalf of everyone in the workshop, I welcome you to come and give me guidance." If you like The Quiet Life in the Siheyuan, please bookmark it: (www.sodu777.net) The Quiet Life in the Siheyuan search and reading novel website is the fastest updated on the entire network.
