30,000 units?
Fan Xiaofan blinked, somewhat disapproving of the low number.
In her past life, this wouldn't have been worth her effort.
But look at him now, Director Fang is so happy he doesn't even know which way is up.
Fan Xiaofan coughed and said, "Factory Manager, there's something I'd like to discuss with you."
Factory Director Fang felt like he had reached the pinnacle of his life, floating in the sky. He replied in a daze, "Say it, I'll agree to anything. I'll even create conditions for you where there are none. You're my precious darling now."
Fan Xiaofan couldn't help but slap his arm; the goosebumps on it were a bit creepy.
"Everyone can focus on the textile factory for now; I'd like to look into this..."
She pointed to the old-fashioned bicycle that Factory Director Fang was pushing, and Factory Director Fang scratched his head: "What's there to research about this thing?"
Fan Xiaofan smiled and said, "There's a lot to research. Don't underestimate this small item; it's in high demand overseas..."
She vaguely remembered that bicycles had been around for a hundred years...
There are so many types of cars to suit different age groups and needs that it can be dazzling.
Women's bicycles, baby walkers, racing bikes, electric bicycles...
She currently feels that modifying a women's multi-speed bicycle is the easiest modification available, and she can have the necessary parts custom-made by acquaintances. She believes President Xu will already be able to help...
After all, she wasn't doing it for herself, but for the greater good!
There's really only a tiny bit of benefit to be gained for oneself...
Factory Director Fang snapped out of his daze, then nodded firmly. In any case, what Xiao Fan was researching was definitely something good…
Fan Xiaofan acted immediately. Since the little boy wasn't going to daycare today, she took him directly to the technical office, got him a chair, and had him practice calligraphy.
She herself became obsessed with drawing various parts...
A multi-speed bicycle controls speed by changing the chain and front and rear chainrings, thus saving effort—perfect for a lazy person like her.
She recalled that prototypes of multi-speed cars already existed abroad, and Tulio had completed the first complete set of components in 1955, including a large gear, brakes, front end, and front and rear gears, which was truly amazing.
So her first women's multi-speed bicycle, born in the early 1960s, was actually only about third in the world...
As the second person to try something new, one shouldn't be considered an eye-catching figure. However, if one were born in China, those foreign "kids" would be astonished, their mouths agape in disbelief.
After all, in their eyes, China is now too backward and too poor.
As a technology that is not yet widespread, it would not be surprising if any developed country, such as Germany, the United States, or Japan, developed a multi-speed bicycle. The only exception should be China.
Fan Xiaofan was drawing parts diagrams with his head down. Sigh, he was actually quite pleased with himself for being reduced to drawing parts diagrams for a bicycle with gears.
How utterly depraved, utterly depraved!
He fiercely finished the last stroke, then satisfiedly marked the parts that needed to be produced through connections with President Xu.
The technical office is currently empty. Because of overseas orders, the technicians are all extremely busy. Fan Xiaofan should have been drafted by Factory Director Fang as well, but she brought up the bicycle issue first, so Factory Director Fang had no choice but to let her go.
After Fan Xiaofan finished drawing, he silently weighed and calculated, and thought, "Hmm, it's acceptable. This part isn't too difficult."
