Are TEP's products good?
Definitely good.
Jiang Tao, a military factory worker, received a small biubiu, which everyone thought was an improved version of the Beretta M92F.
But it was only on the battlefield that they realized, when faced with danger, Jiang Tao could control the small biubiu with natural reflexes, achieving precise shooting and greatly improving accuracy.
It can be said that the effectiveness of man-machine combat obtained in actual combat is completely different from the effectiveness evaluated in experiments.
Just this alone made the West Asian buyers voluntarily raise the price, and the final transaction price was more than double their initial expectations.
And the other products provided by TEP...
The old man had previously bought tracks and chassis, only intending to do some research.
Later, a matching light tank diesel engine technology appeared. He and his staff originally intended to combine the two to create an armored vehicle for assault or transport.
But after a preliminary understanding of the diesel engine technology, the researchers suddenly discovered that this combination was a high-altitude killer.
The oxygen content at high altitudes determines the performance of mechanized armed forces. At an altitude of 3600 meters, the oxygen content is 65%, and at an altitude of 4300 meters, the oxygen content is less than 50%. Whether it is a turbocharged diesel engine or a naturally aspirated diesel engine, even if they don't break down, they can only reach a speed of thirty to forty kilometers per hour at most.
But this diesel engine uses a large and small twin-turbo design. The small turbo starts, and when the speed reaches a certain level, it switches to the large turbo to reduce turbo lag. Then it uses exhaust gas turbocharging and an intercooler to easily reach a speed of sixty to seventy kilometers per hour.
As the saying goes, a light tank runs fast on high ground, all thanks to the engine suspension.
Now that the engine is available, it's time to study the parameters of the tracks and chassis.
They discovered that this light tank already emphasizes mobility. Although it can't reach a speed of ninety kilometers per hour, the suspension system is very stable and it can even be amphibious.
...
As the saying goes, the bolder one is, the more they gain.
They went directly from semi-motorization to mechanization!
With a chassis and an engine, they can easily install any type of armament and configure any type of fire control system. With its powerful mobility, it is stable enough to hide in the mountains.
Has overseas military technology advanced to this level?
"Xu kid, are these... parts of the Grizzly tank?"
"Yes!"
Xu Fei observed their expressions... His audacity had grown to the point where he dared to sell complete vehicles.
Unfortunately, manufacturing a Grizzly tank would consume 10 hours of their own power supply, an additional 500,000 units of energy, 10 tons of rare earth minerals, and 10 tons of metal iron.
Resources were not a problem, but if the toy factory stopped production for 10 hours and consumed an additional 500,000 units of energy, how could they activate other base modules?
"Xu kid, these parts need to be used together. I must take them back for experiments, otherwise I won't be able to estimate the procurement quantity."
"No problem."
In the past, Xu Fei might have worried about the military cracking, imitating, and mass-producing them.
But after studying the three "Five-Axis Machines," he no longer had any concerns in this regard.
Because they couldn't reproduce them.
The old man looked at the guards, packed up everything on the conference table, and said, "If we place an order, can it be delivered within a month?"
"Large items are troublesome, but small items are no problem." Xu Fei thought that large items took longer to repair, while small items could be repaired quickly.
The old man thought that it was inconvenient to transport large items to this side, but it was relatively simple to transport small items. "In that case, let's discuss it in detail later."
"We had chicken stew for lunch. Would you like to eat before you leave?"
"No, we're in a hurry. I'll visit your place when I have time."
"Okay, old man!"
After discussing business, everyone got in the car and went to the Large Swamps.
Coincidentally, a logistics company from a distant city was unloading goods.
The horses pretended that they were receiving diesel engines and arranged for five engineers to install the previously used engines into the military trucks accompanying the old man.
The old man, on this trip, was purchasing diesel engines in the capacity of Jiang Tao's superior.
After receiving the goods, they said their farewells and left in the car.
As for the tracks and chassis...
On the other side, a group of men wearing "Mining Company" uniforms were inspecting the goods.
...
On the way to East Mountain Prefecture.
The old man sat in the back seat of the Capital City 212, holding a price list, carefully pondering.
Buying a diesel engine for 5 million US dollars seemed outrageously expensive, but in reality, he was buying the technological value.
The problem was, he had mastered the technology but didn't have a production line.
So, the old man regretted it a bit.
He shouldn't have used limited foreign exchange to buy technology first and then buy parts.
Instead, he should have directly bought the complete vehicle.
Unfortunately, the price list only had the prices of the parts and didn't include the price of the complete vehicle.
TEP probably couldn't transport it over.
"Commander, we have received the tracks and chassis, and their parameters are the same as the ones Xu Dayou provided."
"Return immediately and go to the heavy industry factory area to assemble the parts and test them." After saying this, the old man suddenly remembered something, "Is there any progress with Xu Dayou's matter?"
"Commander, the other party pushed a relatively unimportant person to the position of Deputy Prefect of East Mountain. He is in charge of education and they probably want to use him as a scapegoat to escape."
"What if he runs away overseas? How will we bring him back in the future? Urge East Mountain Prefecture to capture him as soon as possible."
"The leaders of East Mountain said that it involves a wide range of people, so they must prioritize the overall situation for now."
"..."
"In addition, TEP has contracted the Zhucheng Secondary Vocational School and seems to be planning to establish a higher vocational and technical college."
"A technical college?""I heard that they have a brand-new teaching model called 'One Belt, One', 'One Belt, Two', and at most 'One Belt, Five'."
"See what majors they have and report back to me."
"Okay."
............
After delivering the tracks and chassis and receiving the final payment of 21 million, Xu Fei returned to the toy factory at three o'clock in the afternoon.
The Second Secretary came to report: "Factory Director, your visa and Da Ma's visa to the capital of Nanbangzi have been processed. The flight is at 1 am on the 2nd, and you will return at 5 pm on the same day."
"We have plenty of time, not too rushed."
Xu Fei glanced at the time.
December 31st, 15:12
On the last day of the old century, although the forums were filled with propaganda about the 'Y2K bug', the busy world had nothing special about it.
Eat when you should eat, drink when you should drink.
Go to work when you should go to work, and get off work when you should get off work.
Everyone is living their lives diligently.
And in the past week, Xu Fei accumulated 5.32 million energy.
However, constructing 26 spy Police units consumed 2.6 million.
Hiring 100 engineers consumed 1 million.
Training 100 military dogs consumed 1 million.
In addition, opening the fourth and fifth slots for the Three Kingdoms model consumed 10,000.
Opening the Tianyin Cai Wenji and the Clockwork Mini Fan consumed 2,000.
In the end:
Current energy: 708,000.
Accumulated energy: 8,843,000.
Fortunately, the Navy SEALs can be constructed at a wholesale price. With 100,000 energy, Xu Fei can construct 14 of them. This is enough for the North American base in Nanbangzi.
After understanding all this, Xu Fei lay in the rocking chair next to the stove and decided to take a nap.
Because sleep helps hair growth.
However, when he looked up, he found his secretary fiddling with the heater.
She put a handful of beans in it, waited for five or six minutes, and the office was filled with the aroma of roasted beans.
To read the uncut version, go to [pawread.com].
The secretary held the support rod and poured the beans into a bowl, then sprinkled some sugar and stirred it evenly.
Then she opened the window and let it cool outside for a while...
Xu Fei blinked, and the secretary brought it over to share.
She grabbed three or two and put them in her mouth, chewed on them, and they were crispy and had a unique taste.
"Let's try peanuts later and roast two eggs."
"Good idea!" The secretary's eyes lit up. "But, Factory Director, can we make a glass cover and make it look like a clam or a flying saucer? The roasting effect should be better in a sealed environment."
"Wouldn't that just be an electric oven?"
"Put an electric oven in the office..."
During the conversation, Lou Xiaohu informed Xu Fei that 'Zhang Shiren' had come to visit.
Zhang Shiren was their first major customer and also their first foreign trader.
He purchased an unlimited amount of traditional tin toys, very generous.
But after receiving two batches of goods, he disappeared.
Other foreign traders had different opinions, but in short, they couldn't get the payment from India.
Now that he has returned, he should have gained something.
Xu Fei walked out of the office building and saw Zhang Shiren walking down from the car with crutches, his head wrapped in bandages, and his face bruised and swollen.
"Zhang, what happened to you?"
"They not only didn't pay, but also beat me."
"..."
