If it were a Westerner, they would work eight hours a day, five days of work and two days of rest.
Even if you work four days and rest three days, it will take several years to fully understand the principles of the shield machine.
But we are different. These days, except for our rest time, we spend the rest of our time on the research and development and exploration of the principles of shield machines.
Then the quantitative change led to qualitative change, which is the real reason why we were able to succeed so quickly."
Bang bang bang!
Fu Song quickly applauded: "That's very well said. I fully agree with it."
"Okay, this tunnel boring machine, I'll name it China No. 1. It's the first tunnel boring machine we developed based on the previous one.
Don't underestimate it. The performance of this shield machine is more than five times that of the previous one.
In other words, it took you three full months to open a mountain using a Herrenknecht tunnel boring machine.
But if we use this tunnel boring machine, it can be done in a month at most."
Fu Song's face was filled with shock: "Is this true?"
If Wang Weidong and others developed a machine with similar performance based on the original shield machine.
Or if the machine's performance is better than before, Fu Song can accept it.
But now you are doubling it fivefold. I wouldn’t even dream of doing that!
As if he knew what Fu Song was thinking, Wang Weidong chuckled and said, "Of course it's true.
In fact, we can achieve this thanks to the super steel you discovered.
In addition to being used in aircraft carrier manufacturing, super steel is also widely used in other areas.
Especially for shield machines, we found that using super steel blades can make even the hardest rock as easy to cut as tofu."
Fu Song couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Great!"
Two months later.
Herrenknecht headquarters.
A group of senior executives are holding a meeting to discuss the company's future development plans.
Chris sat in the last row.
Chairman Thor suddenly asked him, "Chris, didn't China buy two tunnel boring machines half a year ago? What's the situation now?"
Chris said hurriedly: "Mr. Thor, we actually made a mistake."
"Error? What error?"
"They sold two tunnel boring machines, but only one was used; the other was for dismantling."
Thor was stunned: "Dismantling?"
"Yes, they dismantled the machine and planned to figure out the principle and then replicate it."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha, what did I hear? The Chinese actually want to copy the shield machine?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! The shield machine structure is so complex that it took our engineers decades to invent it.
Do the Chinese farmers have this ability?"
"I think they might want to dismantle the tunnel boring machine and use the blades inside to make sharp swords.
You should know that the metal used for the blade is alloy steel, which is used in making long swords. It is common for it to cut hair and slash iron like mud."
"Hehe, it's really possible..."
Laughter rang out one after another.
Just then, Thor's phone rang and he chose to answer it.
The next moment, Thor's expression changed drastically: "What did you say? Say it again?"
Five minutes later, bang!
Thor's phone fell to the ground.
"Mr. Thor, what's wrong?" asked the vice president sitting next to him.
Tony's voice trembled: "China has just released a new tunnel boring machine called Zhonghua No. 1, which has five times the performance of our tunnel boring machine.
And it’s priced at only 56 million!”
"What?"
