Chapter 136 Prototype
Yang Zhenyu didn't know what Zhou Qianqian and the others were thinking.

Otherwise, people would definitely say: Are you kidding? I still want to live a good life and look at long-legged girls in the future.

No one cherishes his life more than Yang Zhenyu. Having experienced it once, he cherishes the chance to live even more.

Combining work and rest is the rule Yang Zhenyu set for himself.

Although work is important, health is more important. You cannot let your body break down because of work.

This is also one of the reasons why I don’t go to the Northwest. Live well, live to your eighties or nineties, and look at the beautiful future again.

"Engineer Yang, we have encountered some problems here. Could you please come and take a look?" This is Liu Xuebin, who is in charge of the central control.

"Okay." Yang Zhenyu nodded.

Following Liu Xuebin to their office, several technicians were discussing something.

"What difficulties have you encountered?" Yang Zhenyu asked.

"It's like this. According to the plan that Engineer Yang gave us before, we have already started designing the car's central control system. Now there are still some problems. Look here, the wooden steering wheel model we made. According to what you said, this position can be used to place wipers and lights, but we can't realize so many functions now..."

"Well, we can do this..."

Yang Zhenyu started to demonstrate with the model of the steering wheel, and then the technicians took notes in their notebooks.

At this time, Yang Zhenyu talked about many things that they had never heard of when they were in school.

Many of Yang Zhenyu's theories are from later generations. Today's cars are simply hard to describe. They are just for showing off and have no comfortable experience at all.

These technicians regarded the knowledge imparted by Yang Zhenyu as a treasure book. They recorded it carefully and prepared to try it out slowly later.

Once there is a first time, there will be countless times. Every group will come to ask for advice when they encounter difficulties. Yang Zhenyu is not stingy and directly explains various theories to these technicians.

However, the core engine, including the overall structure, is still made by Yang Zhenyu himself.

On the one hand, I am worried that these newly graduated students are not strong enough, and on the other hand, they still have to master the core things themselves.

Of course, when he meets someone talented, Yang Zhenyu doesn’t mind teaching him more.

On that day, the entire engineering department, including secretary Yu Caiying, gathered in the engineering department's special workshop.

Because today is the day for testing the engine prototype.

Four-cylinder engines are considered relatively less advanced engines in this era, and many big cars pursue greater power brought by more cylinders.

The four-cylinder engine is considered outdated in the eyes of those experts, but in Yang Zhenyu's opinion, the four-cylinder engine is still excellent in many aspects. Under the condition of technical limitations, there is no need to pursue more cylinders.

It is better to use a more stable engine structure to achieve the power increase.

"Engineer Yang, the prototype has been assembled and can be ignited."

"Okay, let's check it again. If there is no problem, we will start the engine and test drive it. As long as our engine works, our jeep will be half completed." Yang Zhenyu nodded.

After listening to Yang Zhenyu's words, several technicians carefully checked the engine again and only left the engine after confirming that there was no problem.

"Light it up." Yang Zhenyu said.

"Ignition." The technician in charge of the ignition device repeated it and pressed the start switch.

"Suddenly..."

The engine without the noise reduction device was still very noisy, but it ignited successfully in one go, which was a good thing.

"Ignition successful!"

"Great!" Everyone cheered.

The success of the first experiment is definitely a great affirmation of their work.

"Very good. Each group continues to record data. Our requirements are not high. The engine must run continuously for at least 72 hours before it can be stopped. As for more data, we will continue testing in the next stage." Yang Zhenyu nodded with satisfaction.

The main body of the engine was still designed by Yang Zhenyu himself. Although the prototype still looks a bit bulky, it was at least successful the first time, which also provided a reference for further improvements later.

Not to mention that this group of technicians had never done this before, even the entire steel rolling mill had never done this before.

The success of the test run on the first try is encouraging enough.

As for some flaws, they will need to be adjusted slowly later.

The work of recording data is very important, as these data will serve as the basis for subsequent verification.

"What are the engineering department doing? They are always dirty. Are they planning something big?"

"Who knows? Didn't you see that the security department has been watching over there recently? There must be something going on. Otherwise, the security department wouldn't send so many people to watch over there every day."

"That's right. Our Engineering Department is very precious. Whenever we encounter such a situation, our Security Department will keep a close eye on it. You can see that they even bring weapons with them when they patrol."

"What are you asking for? Work hard and you will get the benefits." The team leader scolded his fellow workers in a low voice.

"No, team leader, I'm just curious, when will this be done? By then we have to prepare in advance. When we recruit workers, who doesn't have a few relatives and friends?"

"That's right, we have to prepare in advance."

"Okay, stop asking. Don't I tell you the news? If you work hard and perform well, the factory will notice it. Then when the time comes for recruitment and assessment, we can talk about it, right?" said the team leader.

Even the workers have noticed the situation in the engineering department.

Not to mention the big and small cadres in the factory, they all wanted to contribute when the branch was established, in case they were transferred to the branch to make further progress?
Not everyone is like Yang Zhenyu, who is a cadre right from the start, and not everyone can become a level 14 cadre right from the start.

Of course, even Yang Zhenyu has not been converted to a regular employee yet and is still in the internship period.

However, the extension of the internship period also means a change in administrative level.

Yang Zhenyu didn't care about these things. He held the position of deputy chief engineer and received the salary of a level 5 engineer. He had all the benefits he deserved, so there was no need for him to fight for this.

Half a month later, prototype No. 2 was completed. Some minor problems with the No. engine were optimized, and the strength of the cylinder and the degree of gasoline combustion in the cylinder were also enhanced.

These are all motivation-boosting practices.

When the twelfth lunar month came, the workers saw a magical scene.

An iron frame with four wheels was running in the factory under the control of a technician.

He ran over and over again on various roads of different sizes, and it seemed like he had no intention of stopping.

"What is this? Looking at these technicians, they seem to be having a lot of fun."

"Exactly. Even the girls tried it out. It looked really fun."

"That's right, how did they do it? How did they run all over the yard?"

"Go, go, stop gathering here, and go back to your posts!"

The workshop directors of each workshop came over and asked people to return to their workshops.
