Reborn in Brazil As a Plutocrat - Chapter 393
Chapter 393 Equipment
Chen Hongqing was not surprised by Fang Lang’s request. It was durable, and these were trivial matters, but scratch and puncture resistance was indeed an unprecedented requirement.
Let him scratch his head for a while, and said unconfidently:
“Boss, this is durable, I can assure you, after all, the cotton we use now is long-staple cotton, and the woven fabric can be durable.
It may be difficult to be scratch-resistant and stab-resistant! ”
Fang Lang is not surprised by this. It is obviously impossible for pure cotton cloth to be scratch-resistant and stab-resistant.
Later generations did not have the possibility of making stab-resistant clothing until Kevlar fiber was successfully researched by DuPont. Now it is obviously a bit embarrassing to make scratch-resistant and stab-resistant fabrics.
So, after hearing what Chen Hongqing said, Fang Lang could only smile and shook his head and said:
“It is indeed more difficult now, but with the advancement of technology, more and more chemical fibers will definitely appear. I believe that in the future there will be this brand-new material that can be scratch-resistant and puncture-resistant.
So, your textile mills should not just focus on cotton cloth just because we are the place where long-staple cotton is produced, otherwise they will be eliminated sooner or later.
I suggest that you start to slowly try other textile materials after stabilizing the base of cotton spinning, and you can also study some other weaving methods.
It would be even better if someone could develop a completely new textile machinery. After all, we now have our own machinery processing factory, and we can weave these textile machinery with low technical difficulty.
But textile alone may cause infringement. If we can own our own intellectual property rights, we will have the opportunity to enter the textile machinery manufacturing industry. You know, this is a big cake! ”
Chen Hongqing is an old textile veteran who has worked in the textile industry for half his life. He can understand everything Fang Lang said.
It’s just that he didn’t have such a big heart and didn’t dare to think about such a big time, but now with Fang Lang’s support, he feels that these can’t be realized at the end, and the big deal is to throw a lot of money into it.
If successful, their Daqing Spinning Mill can enter a whole new field, which is his dream.
So, without hesitation, he said:
“Okay, boss, don’t worry! Since you have instructions, we will follow your thinking and go on unswervingly, and we must find a way to realize your plan.”
Fang Lang is very satisfied with Chen Hongqing’s statement, and he can be regarded as this, revealing the future direction to the other party. As long as the other party can have this kind of pioneering and innovative awareness, it is not difficult to become a giant in the textile industry in the future.
smiled and nodded at him.
Then, looking at Vivian on the other side, he said:
“Vivian, now the cloth produced by our textile factory is sold to Europe and the United States.
I plan to support a number of private garment factories in Natal in the future. The first step I want to put your Vivienne clothing manufacturing factory in Natal.
As for where to put the design office and company headquarters, it is up to you to decide, whether it is Paris, France, Milan, Italy, or our Sao Paulo, Brazil, I have no problem.
What do you think? ”
Vivian heard from Fang Lang that the textile industry he established in Natal, Brazil was for him.
Come to Daqing Textile Factory today, and she was very happy to see such a large scale of production. Now that Fang Lang asked him to put the garment manufacturing factory in Natal, of course he has no objection.
In this way, not only can you come to Natal frequently to accompany Fang Lang, but you can also get the lowest cost raw materials and cheap labor.
There is absolutely no objection to her.
Instead, Fang Lang fulfilled his promise and made her very happy. He unceremoniously took Fang Lang’s arm, kissed Fang Lang’s face fiercely and said:
“Of course, honey.
You are so kind, I haven’t graduated yet! Wouldn’t it be too early to build a garment factory now? ”
Fang Lang shook his head with a smile and said:
“Don’t worry! Soon, we can build a garment factory and receive some OEM orders from Europe and America.
It can not only maintain the operation of the factory, but also exercise the skills of the workers.
After your own clothing brand is established, we can directly start producing qualified products for you. ”
When Vivienne heard her man’s arrangement, she didn’t have any opinions, and with a happy smile on her face, she gave Fang Lang a hard kiss.
Chen Hongqing who was on the side quickly turned his head away, and kept muttering, “See no evil! Do not see evil!”
Seeing his woman directly expressing her feelings with practical actions, Fang Lang laughed loudly, looking at Chen Hongqing who was flushed and a little embarrassed.
Fang Lang patted Vivian on the back, signaling the other party to pay attention to the influence.
Vivien twisted her waist dissatisfiedly, and sat down reluctantly.
After Vivienne was done, Fang Lang looked at Chen Hongqing again and said:
“Old Chen, do you know anything about shoemaking?”
Chen Hongqing, who was looking out the window to avoid embarrassment, heard the boss’s question, turned his head slowly, saw that the boss’s wife had separated from the boss, and then let out a long breath.
But his old face was still flushed, and he asked in an uncertain tone with some embarrassment:
“What kind of shoes do you mean by shoemaking?
If it is our traditional mille-layer bottom, many Chinese women can make it, but if it is to make leather shoes, only a few people can. ”
Fang Lang frowned when he heard the words. It is definitely not possible to make a layered sole. Although this kind of cloth shoes are very comfortable to wear, they are obviously not suitable for the climate like Brazil.
Especially during the rainy season in Brazil, this kind of shoes must not be worn out, otherwise they will be soaked in water for a long time and will soon break down.
The processing technology of cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles is almost all handmade stitch by stitch, which is obviously not suitable for the jungle boots that Fang Lang wants to make.
The current leather shoe processing technology may have a certain reference value, after all, leather shoes need glue and mechanical stitching.
However, Fang Lang quickly realized that what he wanted to make was actually a brand new kind of footwear. This kind of shoes can be made through glue injection. He might as well organize his own people and develop a whole set of production processes. Then from the mechanical processing factory, a batch of professional equipment is manufactured.
Thinking of this, Fang Lang said directly to Chen Hongqing:
“Old Chen, please help me find a few masters who have experience in leather shoe manufacturing. Let’s study it and design a new shoe-making process.
I want to manufacture a kind of military boots. After the process is determined, I will arrange a machinery factory to produce special shoe-making machinery for us.
When the time comes, direct automated manufacturing. ”
Although Chen Hongqing didn’t understand what the military boots Fang Lang was talking about, he still got up quickly and said:
“Yes, boss, I’m going to find someone now.”
When Chen Hongqing was looking for someone, Fang Lang was not idle, and drew the boots in his mind on the drawing. Unfortunately, drawing a camouflage pattern is like graffiti, very simple.
But the shoes are obviously not that easy to draw. After finally drawing a rough shape, Vivienne on the side can’t stand it anymore.
Directly grabbed the pen in Fang Lang’s hand and said:
“The shoe you drew is really ugly, let me do it!”
Fang Lang looked at the finished product he had drawn, and didn’t think it was too ugly. You must know that he had drawn the design of the ship with a professional draftsman.
Didn’t expect to be disgusted by Vivienne now.
However, his wife is willing to help him draw pictures. He is too happy to be happy about this kind of red sleeves!
How could you refuse?
So, he let go without hesitation. He just stood behind Vivian and kept pointing.
After drawing the shape of the entire shoe, he asked her to start drawing the details of the shoes. For example, he designed the brass quick buckle where the shoelaces are tied, so he needed to draw a special detailed picture to represent it.
After drawing the picture, I found that there seemed to be something wrong. After searching for a long time, I found that there was no V-shaped opening in front of the ankle to protect the foot from being contused.
The details of the drainage holes are marked one by one.
Then I repeatedly compared it with the combat boots I had worn in my impression, and found that the ankle position has not been strengthened, which may not protect the ankle enough.
Picked up the pen again and made some changes on the picture drawn by Vivienne. After finally being able to see the desired effect from Vivian’s drawings.
Fang Lang instructed Vivienne to draw an exploded diagram of the shoe, marking the steel plate on the sole and the steel plate on the toe respectively.
Finally, I took a blank drawing and designed the style of the Panama sole in my impression.
By the time the drawing was finished, it was already dark.
Fang Lang, who thought it wouldn’t take long, had to keep Vivienne and work overtime with him.
Surprisingly, although Vivian didn’t like the camouflage pattern designed by Fang Lang, she liked the jungle boots designed by Fang Lang very much.
even kept saying that this pair of boots gave her countless design inspirations.
While the two were still drawing pictures, Chen Hongqing had already brought in a craftsman who knew how to make shoes. No one thought that the boots would be so complicated, especially the need to insert steel plates into the soles.
All the workers are very incomprehensible.
After Fang Lang explained, everyone was relieved, but at the same time they were also surprised by the protective ability of this shoe.
Everyone conducted a careful study around the drawings, and Fang Lang finally clarified his requirements.
These shoemakers began to discuss the manufacturing process again, dividing the manufacturing of combat boots into many processes, which step should be done first, which step should be done later, to what extent, and how to ensure quality.
The manufacturing process of the shoes alone has been discussed for nearly two days. Everyone knows that these are not shoes worn by ordinary people, but military boots used by soldiers for combat. Therefore, the quality requirements are all about excellence.
Everyone expressed their views on the manufacturing process. Finally, the entire shoe manufacturing process was divided into more than 50 steps.
Among them, what effect needs to be achieved in each step also puts forward clear requirements.
After these technological processes were confirmed, Fang Lang sent them to the machinery manufacturing factory, and asked the mechanical engineers in the factory to discuss together what kind of machinery needs to be manufactured to achieve the desired effect.
Fang Lang didn’t see the military boots he designed until two months later.
Because the production process of the camouflage cloth has not been completed, this is a pure black canvas boots.
After the foot test, Fang Lang found some minor problems, and went back to let them make changes.
Finally, after three months, Fang Lang handed in an answer sheet that satisfied Fang Lang.
During this trial production process, the boot factory has already started simultaneous construction, with the cooperation of the machinery manufacturing factory, and the factory’s various machinery is given priority in supply, so the construction efficiency of the factory is very high.
This can be regarded as a dedicated boots production line with completely independent intellectual property rights.
Of course Fang Lang would not participate in these things all the way. After confirming his request with the shoemakers, he took Vivienne home.
As for weapons such as silencers and crossbows and blow arrows, he would just make a phone call and it would be over.
While Fang Lang was researching these jungle warfare equipment, the rebels of the Eddie brothers far away in Manguali also encountered trouble.
“Brother, why are these border guards not moving!”
Raymond Eddie asked Brisso Eddie anxiously.
“It’s okay, don’t worry. It seems that the leader of the army, Milosh Chuatoko, is not an idiot.
However, I want to see how long he can procrastinate. I don’t believe his superiors will allow him to procrastinate. ”
Briso Eddie also had a map of the Northwest Amazon region on the desktop in front of him. At the moment, his eyes were scanning back and forth between Bitencourt Town and Manguari.
Raymond Eddie was relieved to see his brother’s confident look, and said with a smile:
“In this case, let’s take a good rest in Mangua and recruit some more people by the way. With the equipment seized from them, we can recruit more than 200 people.
Brother Haha, your move is really amazing. It was a pity that we came out too hastily, and the batch of goods from Bittencourt Town could not be transferred in time. ”
Hearing what his younger brother said, Briso Eddie raised his mouth slightly, and said calmly:
“It’s no pity. I left those things for them on purpose. I just wanted to see if they would be tempted by such a large amount of wealth, and if anything interesting would happen.”
Hearing this, Raymond Eddie was also taken aback, and said with some distress:
“Brother, this is a lot of money! If you sell it, you can buy a lot of equipment, and it will also allow us to recruit more people.”
Smiling and patted Raymond Eddie’s shoulder, Brisso Eddie said in a relaxed tone:
“Don’t worry! They are the regular army, unless they burn this batch of goods directly, otherwise, as long as they ship them back, they are just helping us, and we will just pick up the goods at the destination. Hehe.”
“what!”
Raymond Eddie was a little stunned by his brother’s words, but he quickly realized that if the border guards didn’t directly destroy them, they would definitely hand them over as spoils of war, or swallow them privately.
No matter what kind it is, they will definitely send the cargo out of the jungle, which is much lower risk than transporting it by themselves.
As for where they will be shipped later, it doesn’t matter. As long as the destination of the goods is known, they are sure to transfer it from them.
Briso Eddie didn’t care about his younger brother’s surprise, and continued to speak:
“It’s okay to recruit people in Manguali, but we also need to keep some spare equipment. It will be useful when we go back to Bittenkote Town and recruit local people.”
