Reborn in Brazil As a Plutocrat

  Chapter 164 Curve to save the country

   "You mean, I actually only need to hire a few aircraft design engineers to build my aircraft factory."

   "Of course, we are friends, and I can't possibly deceive you, although I'm pretty sure I can convince the board of directors to build an aircraft factory in Brazil with you.

  However, now our main energy is concentrated on our Brabazon aircraft, and we really don't have much energy to expand.

  If we set up a joint venture factory and we only produce technology, the board of directors of the company may worry that our shares will be easily diluted.

  So, I suggest that you might as well just build an aircraft assembly plant.

   Then hire several professional aircraft designers to complete their own design drawings, and then directly assemble and produce them. "

   This may be the sequelae Fang Lang brought from later generations, thinking that all the technology must be completely in his own hands before he can feel at ease.

  But now I am not in my hometown, but in Brazil. In recent years, Brazil has always maintained a good relationship with the United States.

   There is no need to worry about getting stuck.

  I thought of the United States, thought of the aircraft maintenance line, and thought of the American Shata Corporation.

  A brand new idea suddenly appeared in Fang Lang's mind.

  Now I own the shares of Shata Corporation, and I can obtain decommissioned transport aircraft from the United States at the lowest price, and then undergo commercial modification.

  Sell to the airlines that need it, so that the profits needed for the company's early development can be guaranteed.

   And can be familiar with the structure of each model,

   At the same time, it can master a sales channel,

  The company's technical strength can also be rapidly improved.

   When your own aircraft is designed and assembled, isn't it very simple?

   Even in the early stage, I can complete the corresponding technology accumulation by manufacturing certain parts for major aircraft companies.

  Thinking of this, Fang Lang's eyes suddenly brightened.

  But Fang Lang is also very clear now that these things cannot be done by himself.

  I don’t understand aircraft design myself, so the best way is to find a professional to take charge of this matter.

   "Ms. Henderson, thank you very much. You have given me inspiration. Indeed, as you said, the future is an era of global integration. I can indeed produce my own aircraft through global procurement.

  I think I should build a one-day aircraft overhaul line first, and start from repairing and modifying aircraft step by step, and enter this industry.

   Avoid unnecessary losses caused by blind entry. "

  Of course, no matter which plan is followed to build a factory, it must have its own core technology. So what core technologies does the aircraft have?

   There will definitely be a lot to say about future aircraft, what aerodynamic layout! Material structure! Avionics flight control system! Engine! very many!

  However, aircraft in this era are not that complicated for the time being, or the aircraft that Fang Lang wants to build does not need to be so complicated for the time being.

  The most important technology right now is definitely the engine, because there is a saying that great efforts make miracles.

   Bart Osborne, the former project manager of the Lockheed Tactical Fighter Systems Division of the United States, once said:

   "As long as the thrust is strong, bricks can fly into the sky."

  So at this time, the engine is definitely the most important core technology.

  Fang Lang could hear from Mrs. Henderson's words that Mrs. Henderson was not sure that she could really convince the board of directors to agree to cooperate with herself, a completely unfounded novice, to establish a joint venture factory that only manufactures agricultural aircraft.

  Ms. Henderson also understood that Fang Lang heard his evasion, or explained his difficulties.

  That's why he voluntarily rejected the original plan to build an aircraft factory in a joint venture with himself.

  It made him feel a little unreasonable.

  After thinking about it, Mrs. Henderson said:

   "If you really want to enter the field of aircraft manufacturing, I think I can introduce you to someone who may be able to help you."

  Ms. Henderson's words made Fang Lang happy. Didn't he send a pillow just because he wanted to doze off?

   What Fang Lang needs most now is professionals.

   "Really? Thank you so much Mrs. Henderson."

   Fang Lang looked at Mrs. Henderson expectantly.

   "Don't be too happy, I'll tell you where this person is, but you have to persuade him yourself.

  His name is Ante Pollmann, he is a German, and he has participated in the development of ME323 and Heinger He111Z twin-body aircraft.

   This is a crazy guy, and his concept of designing aircraft design was a bit difficult for us, so we didn't keep him.

   However, if you want to start a whole new aircraft manufacturing business, you might be able to hire his help. "

   Fang Lang was taken aback by this. What do you mean? The aircraft design concept made it difficult for them to accept.

   It can’t be the twin machine just mentioned!

   This thing has no future! The degree of difficulty in operation is not ordinary.

   It is better to ask clearly.

   "You said that his design concept is a bit unacceptable, what exactly do you mean, can you tell me?"

   "How do you say this? He is crazy about a technology called variable-sweep wings, and he has conducted very in-depth research on him.

   It is said that this technology was proposed by Messerschmitt, and a P.1101 was designed, but it may not be successful.

  Our company's experts thought he was a bit whimsical.

  But it is undeniable that he is definitely a qualified aircraft designer. "

   Variable-sweep wings? Isn't this the technology of the F14 Tomcat?

   This is a very good thing!

  Suddenly felt that these aircraft experts in the Henderson family might really be bricks.

   It's just that Yumu's head is not clear.

   can no longer be described as conservative.

  However, this is good news for Fang Lang!

   At least this technology is proven to be feasible in later generations!

What are you waiting for? Try to make yourself appear calm and say:

   "Oh! I don't know where is Mr. Ante Polman, the aircraft designer?"

   "He is German and has now returned to his native Oberndorf in Baden-Württemberg.

   If, you want to hire a professional then I think he would be a qualified candidate. "

  According to Fang Lang's itinerary, his next stop was originally Germany, so this does not conflict with his itinerary at all.

   Fang Lang even had a feeling that he might have picked up a baby this time.

  The mood suddenly became excited.

   "That's no problem, as it happens that my next fight is Germany, maybe I can just go and talk to him.

  However, Mrs. Henderson and the aircraft assembly plant I established do not know if it is possible to introduce several types of piston engine technology to Bristol.

   If that doesn't work, we can sign a contract and buy the engines from Bristol.

  Or, please introduce me to the staff of Rolls-Royce. I have introduced or purchased several engines from their company. "

  Fang Lang set his requirements very low, even a little praying.

   It's not that Fang Lang is mean, he just wants to put a little pressure on Mrs. Henderson.

  After all, you are not sure about convincing the board of directors about the joint venture to build a factory.

   Now I want to introduce several engine technologies, if not, I can buy them directly from you!

  If you still think it’s not good, then introduce another aircraft manufacturing company in the UK to me, it’s always possible!

  As a businessman, it is obviously impossible to introduce business to others.

  So introducing the option of Rolls-Royce will definitely not work.

  The only thing left is to introduce engine technology and simply sell the engine to him.

   Selling the engine to Fang Lang obviously became a simple business.

   In this way, the close relationship between Fang Lang and the Henderson family cannot be revealed.

   There are not many options left for Mrs. Henderson.

   Sure enough, before Mrs. Henderson could speak, Leonhardt, who had been listening to the conversation between the two, spoke first.

   "Mom, I think it shouldn't be difficult to sell a few sets of engine production technology and guide the factory below to master the technology!

  If the board of directors still objects, then please find some reasons and fire a few engineers who master these technologies.

  I'll help Fang Lang re-hire them.

  If they are unwilling to leave the UK.

  We can hire them directly into the Aston Martin factory to build the engine. "

  Ms. Henderson thought for a long time before saying:

   "Fang, there are people from the British military on our board of directors, so there may be some things that I really cannot provide to you.

  However, what Reinhardt said just reminded me.

  We cannot provide these technologies to other countries outside the UK, however, we can provide them to companies in the UK.

   That is, we can deliver these technologies to your Aston Martin factory.

   It can even arrange for people to go to the Aston Martin factory to guide production, as Leinhardt said.

  As long as the Aston Martin factory has mastered these technologies, it will become very simple for you to obtain these technologies.

   Isn't it? "

  Fang Lang didn't expect Reinhardt to be so powerful and help him come up with such a good idea.

  In this way, not only can bypass the supervision of the British government, but it may also give Aston Martin some new inspiration for its engine technology.

   This is really a good idea to kill two birds with one stone.

   Fang Lang slapped his hands and said:

   "That's great, Reinhardt, you're a genius.

  Haha Now I think buying Aston Martin is really a great choice.

  Maybe, Aston Martin can also cooperate more deeply with Bristol.

   Reinhardt, what do you think of an Aston Martin with an all-aluminum body?

   Will it be lighter than the current body, will it run faster than it is now, will it win the Grand Prix again? "

  After hearing Fang Lang's words, Mrs. Henderson didn't understand what Fang Lang was up to.

   But it is obviously impossible for him to jump out and object directly.

  Because she knew how much his son loved Aston Martin, he would agree without hesitation.

  Even if she refuses now, he will definitely find a way to facilitate this matter.

   Sure enough, after listening to Fang Lang's words, Reinhardt slapped his thigh and stood up, walking back and forth in the room.

   Still muttering in his mouth:

   "Yeah! Why didn't I think of that? On the aluminum car, it means lighter weight, and then see if I can get some new inspiration from the aircraft engine.

   Further increase the power of the engine. Gosh! Is it possible that such an Aston Martin could hit speeds of over 180 mph?

   Can this break the world record! If only I had an Aston Martin like this. God! "
