Reborn in Brazil As a Plutocrat - Chapter 466
Chapter 466 Missile Program
Seeing Fang Lang’s confident face, Rema Horton knew that before today’s meeting, they must have conveyed some technical information to Kurt Tank.
Since the problem has been solved, he certainly will not raise any objections, but after looking at the engine for a while, he said:
“For such a big plane, the two engines may not be strong enough to fly the plane!”
Hearing this, Fang Lang frowned, thought for a while, and then slapped his forehead, almost directly applying the technology of later generations. You must know that the technology of jet engines is not as advanced as that of later generations.
The thrust is definitely not as great as the later generations. No wonder Rema Horton took a look and felt that the plane could not fly, and almost made a mistake.
smiled and patted Rema Horton’s arm and said:
“It doesn’t matter, the current engine thrust is not enough, you will design four engines. When the engine thrust is enough in the future, we will install two engines.”
This kind of thinking is very simple. The German long-range bomber adopts this layout. Rima Horton is very familiar with it, so Fang Lang understood what he meant when he said it.
nodded very seriously and said:
“I got it boss!”
Seeing the other party’s serious expression, Fang Lang put down the pen in his hand with a smile and said:
“These are just some of my ideas. Whether it is suitable or not depends on your careful research. If you find any problems, you can tell me. If you have any better ideas, you can also experiment directly.
In short, this project is the next largest project of our company, and I will definitely support it fully. Hope you don’t let me down. ”
Fang Lang’s attitude has been expressed very clearly, and Rema Horton nodded seriously with a serious expression:
“Please rest assured, boss! We will not let you down.”
Next, Fang Lang and Rima Holden focused on several other important indicators of civil aviation airliners, such as seat spacing and size, layout, noise level inside the aircraft, ambient temperature, pressure control, and on-board galleys, toilets, Entertainment facilities and communication facilities, etc.
With this kind of hacking behavior, Fang Lang didn’t believe that his aircraft manufacturing company still couldn’t succeed.
The two chatted for a long time, until Ante Polman knocked on the door and reminded Fang Lang to go to dinner. The two ended their communication.
After the meal, Fang Lang didn’t leave directly, because he still had one very important thing to do. After everyone left, Fang Lang and Ante Polman went to the other party’s office.
Before Ante Polman closed the office door, Fang Lang had already spoken directly.
“Polman, I’m going to set up a missile research institute. I don’t know if you have any suitable talents to recommend!”
Actually, as early as Fang Lang’s meeting today, after explaining the wide application of missiles in the future, Ante Polman was already prepared in his heart, and the boss would definitely intervene in the research and development of missiles.
Otherwise, after Professor Kurt Tank’s aircraft is developed, it will be difficult to exert its combat effectiveness if it is not equipped with suitable missiles.
It is precisely because he understands this that he has already started looking for suitable relevant talents in his heart. Unlike Kurt Tank and Rima Horton, he is not a professional talent.
He is very clear that the reason why he became the general manager of Fangyuan Aircraft Manufacturing Company today is because he can find enough talents for the boss and successfully complete the company’s daily management work.
As soon as he heard that the boss wanted to meet him alone after dinner, he already understood the boss’s purpose. Now that it was true, he smiled confidently, and said to Fang Lang while closing the door:
“Boss, don’t worry, let’s sit down and talk!”
When Fang Lang saw the other party’s appearance, he knew that this guy was ready. The worry in my heart about the lack of suitable missile research and development talents has also been relaxed.
Ante Polman’s office is different from the R&D designer’s office. It has a very large space. On the coffee table in the reception area, there is even a mahogany tea tray with a very exquisite kung fu tea set.
Although, I don’t know how this guy has such good things, Fang Lang will not care about these things, even if the other party uses the company’s expenses to purchase, he will not mind, after all, the promotion of this kind of Sinicized living habits is what he has been doing all the time. doing things.
Very naturally, he sat directly in front of the tea tray and started to make tea. This action made Ante Polman happy. He bought it at a huge price because he heard that Fang Lang had this habit.
Now it seems that it really came in handy. Seeing Fang Lang sitting in the main seat, he didn’t care, and sat directly beside Fang Lang.
“Looking at you, you are already prepared!”
Fang Lang glanced at Ante Polman, who was sitting aside with a relaxed expression, and smiled slightly.
Ante Polman stared closely at the movements of Fang Lang’s hands, wanting to learn some of the boss’s tea-making habits. After hearing Fang Lang’s words, he also smiled and said:
“The boss emphasized the application of missiles at the meeting today. I guessed that the boss must enter this industry. Although I don’t know much about these professional knowledge, I know what the boss needs.”
Hearing this, Fang Lang laughed loudly, gave Ante Polman a thumbs up and said:
“Polman, you are such a caring guy.
In this way, you already have a suitable candidate in your mind. Speak up and let me hear. ”
The boss’s approval also made Ante Polman very satisfied, which made him find the meaning of existence.
“I don’t know if the boss has heard of the British bombing of the German missile research base in 1943.”
Fang Lang kept moving his hands, while looking at Ante Polman in confusion, and shook his head. Seeing this, Ante Polman didn’t make too much of a fuss, and said directly:
“Germany has been researching missiles for a long time, and the initial research base was in a small town called Peenemunde on the island of Usedom in northeast Germany.
After this information was spied on by the British, the British immediately launched an operation. In August 1943, the British dispatched hundreds of bombers directly to Peenemünde, almost leveling the entire town.
None of the research facilities in the base was spared. Tens of thousands of research materials were burned to ashes, and more than 300 missile experts were killed and injured. Let the V2 missile, which is already close to success, be postponed for one year before its successful development. ”
This kind of thing is very common during wartime. Fang Lang doesn’t quite understand why Ante Polman said this to himself, and he said in a puzzled way:
“Later, didn’t the German government conduct research again and achieve success?
Is there any treasure worth discovering in this base? ”
Ante Polman heard this, smiled slightly and said:
“The explosion at that time caused the death of more than 300 missile experts. At the same time, more people were seriously injured and could not continue to participate in the research. Some experts were even disabled and could not participate in the follow-up research.”
Fang Lang’s eyes lit up, and he said in surprise:
“Can you reach these people?”
“I have a classmate who happens to be one of these people. He is in charge of missile engine technology, but because of his left hand disability, he was not able to participate in the follow-up plan. If you don’t mind their disability, I am willing to go to Germany immediately. You recruit them.”
Ante Polman directly stated his plan without hesitation, which was simply a huge surprise to Fang Lang.
After the war, German missile research experts were basically arrested and imprisoned by Britain, the United States, the Soviet Union and other countries. Many of them directly became American missile research experts. It is obviously very difficult for Fang Lang to obtain relevant research talents.
Unexpectedly, Ante Polman gave him such a surprise. These first batch of missile research talents were unable to participate in the follow-up research because of disabilities, and became fish that slipped through the net.
Isn’t this a gift from God to him? Fang Lang, who had figured this out, was ecstatic.
hurriedly opened the mouth and said:
“What does disability matter? As long as you are not mentally disabled and you are able to engage in missile research, I will not refuse. If your hands and feet are inconvenient, we can provide them with life assistants.
If you can’t continue to draw drawings, arrange work assistants and drawing tools for them. In short, try your best to meet all their needs. ”
Ante Polman was also delighted when he heard this.
After all, these people live in poverty in their hometown because of their disabilities, so it is not difficult to recruit them. This can not only complete the tasks assigned by the boss, but also help them get rid of poverty. Of course, Ante Polman is very happy.
But in his opinion, it is not enough just to find these basic researchers, just like he brought Kurt Tank and Rima Horton to Fang Lang, he also wants to give Fang Lang Find a real genius.
Therefore, when Fang Lang was discussing civil aviation airliners with Rema Holden, he had already contacted the employees sent to Germany in an emergency telegram, and the reason why he can be so calm now is precisely because he has found someone who he thinks A figure who could equally be called a genius.
So, when he saw Fang Lang’s surprised face, although he was also very happy, don’t be very excited, but waited a little reservedly for Fang Lang to be happy, and then continued to speak with a smile on his face:
“Boss, I don’t think you will be satisfied with just these basic researchers?”
Fang Lang, who was already very pleasantly surprised, heard the words, and glanced at Ante Polman with some surprise. Seeing the mysterious smile on the other party’s face, he knew that there must be even bigger surprises waiting for him.
Looked at the other party in disbelief, and handed the tea he had just made to Ante Polman, and said eagerly:
“Do you have any more powerful talents to recommend?”
Fang Lang’s eagerness made Ante Polman feel great satisfaction in his heart. This is a sense of satisfaction in his heart that his own value is recognized, which makes him very intoxicated.
But he was not flustered, but still respectfully took the tea handed over by Fang Lang with both hands, nodded slightly and said:
“Yes, for our aero-engine research and development, I sent a professional headhunting team to Germany to find professional talents for us.
I’ve had them start looking for relevant talent right away after you’ve had the meeting.
Before the meal, they recommended a person for me. I think it is very good, and he can be the person in charge of our missile project. ”
Now Fang Lang had to look at Ante Polman differently. When he first came into contact with the other party, he felt that the other party was a liar, and he was a little disappointed, but later he recruited so many aircraft manufacturing talents for himself.
And set up the shelf of the aircraft manufacturing company, he has already recognized the ability of the other party.
Now it seems that the opponent’s ability is far more than that! Being able to think of sending a professional headhunting team to Germany to continue looking for talents for the company, this alone made Fang Lang feel that he didn’t know him well enough.
Patted Ante Polman’s arm full of appreciation, and gave him a thumbs up again in great satisfaction. Slowly calm down, picked up the teacup, drank the black tea in the cup in one gulp, and then slowly said:
“Good job, you should be ready to become a partner of the company.”
