A newly established bicycle factory in Beijing? I think I've heard of it. Was it established at this time? Ye Shan naturally didn't know about this. He asked,""A newly established bicycle factory. What brand is it?”
"Torch." This was what the owner of a workshop said.
Torch? Why hadn't he heard of it before? Could it be some random brand? A hint of disappointment flashed in Ye Shan's eyes, but he immediately regained his smile and greeted everyone. His polite manner, coupled with his identity as a nine-year-old prodigy, immediately made everyone present feel comfortable. He was really a good child.
"So, why is Manager Bao looking for me?”Ye Shan knew very well that the other party was most likely here for the man-powered tricycle.
"I came to see you today about the tricycle," said Manager Bao with a smile.”He gave Engineer Qian a look, and he immediately took out a blueprint from his briefcase. It was the blueprint of the tricycle designed by Ye Shan, and even the detailed parts were clearly drawn.
"Comrade Yeshan, did you invent this tricycle?" Engineer Qian asked.”
"Of course not." Ye Shan waved his hand." This kind of man-powered tricycle was invented long ago. It should have been used by people in the 1930s.”
"No, I want to ask, did you design this tricycle?”Engineer Qian was excited." What I want to say is, how did you make this tricycle?”
"We need to use the traditional craftsmanship of the Dragon Country to make the container. The center of gravity of the frame needs to be designed. The rest is not much different from a bicycle.”When Ye Shan said that, it was a matter of course. The scene immediately fell silent.
These mortals who were dominated by prodigies were only worthy of trembling at the side.
It was Factory Manager Bao and the director of the Vehicle Administration Office who stood up and explained the matter clearly.
It turned out that the bicycles on the market were in short supply. If the bicycles were to be listed in Beijing, they had to be shipped from other places. The bicycle market in Beijing was in an awkward situation.
The higher-ups decided to set up a bicycle factory in Beijing. Later, there was the 49 City Bike General Factory. After it developed, there were the 1st Bike Factory, the 2nd Bike Factory, the Bike Spare Part Factory, the 49 City Dongcheng Bike Factory, and the 49 City Fengtai Bike Factory.
The director of the Department of Vehicle Administration was also a very well-connected person in the system. When he saw Ye Shan's man-powered tricycle, he knew that if this thing was produced, it would be more useful and popular than bicycles. He immediately reported to his superiors.
The higher-ups did not pay much attention to it at first. They only asked Factory Manager Bao to take a look and then contacted Factory Manager Bao. When Factory Manager Bao, Engineer Qian, and the leaders of the factory saw it, they were immediately shocked.
One had to know that at least half of the use of bicycles was to transport goods, but the ability of bicycles to transport goods was really impressive. They were not even as good as handcarts.
If there was such a man-powered tricycle, it would be easy to operate and convenient to use. Its practicality would definitely surpass that of a simple bicycle.
Without a second word, they dismantled the tricycle and began to measure it professionally. At this time, there was no patent law. Even if there was a patent law, this thing wasn't invented by Ye Shan, so he couldn't apply for a patent.
After they finished measuring, they realized that the design of this thing was exquisite, but the production was very crude. Many parts were pieced together. There was also the transmission system. The group of people actually did not understand what the transmission system was for.
The bicycle transmission system was invented by Paul de Vivier in 1905. It had been more than 50 years since then. For a bicycle, the riding of a bicycle was starting, stopping, going uphill, downhill, facing the wind, and going with the wind.
No matter what the conditions were, it could maintain a certain speed. A bicycle needed a transmission to maintain a certain step speed and moment when it was moving fast or slow.
If you don't increase your own strength and only increase the gear ratio to ride fast, it's impossible. He soon discovered this during the actual riding process. Increasing the gear ratio (high moment, low rotation) to ride, it would not achieve the most appropriate ride (release the most appropriate combination of energy moment and rotation). This would increase the burden on the knees and become the cause of various obstacles. (Note: It's best to ride at a constant speed. It's torture to your knees to be fast and slow.) If the time is short, I don't care much about it. After a long time, all kinds of problems will appear.)
Therefore, bicycle transmission systems were generally installed on mountain bicycles. For the Dragon Country, which generally only needed road bicycles, this thing was really not very useful.
However, a man-powered tricycle was different. When pulling goods, it had a gear change system, which made it better to start and stop. It was more suitable.
Following Ye Shan's explanation, everyone present finally understood. Engineer Qian even took out a small notebook to remember and even asked Ye Shan a lot of questions.
At noon, the director of the vehicle administration took everyone to the canteen of the guest house for a meal. Because Ye Shan, the underage child, was there, no one drank.
In the afternoon, he went to Ye Shan to ask him some questions and some opinions about bicycles. Ye Shan answered everything he knew, and those who didn't gave their opinions based on what they had seen and heard in the future.
He had spent the whole day here. The factory director, engineers, and leaders were all around a nine-year-old child. They no longer treated Ye Shan as a child.
On the contrary, they felt that this child was indeed a prodigy and had great talent.
In the end, they had dinner together. The leader treated them to a meal with meat, vegetables, fish, and meat. It was even more sumptuous than the lunch. After dinner, Manager Bao said,"Thank you very much, Little Comrade Ye Shan." " Of course, we won't let you help us for free. I'll represent the bicycle factory in Beijing and give you 200 yuan.”
He didn't mention anything about buying the technology, but took out a stack of big black ten and handed it to Ye Shan. At the same time, he gave him some tickets. Ye Shan took a quick look and saw that there were several bicycle tickets and a large number of industrial tickets.
He didn't expect the 200 yuan he had just borrowed to come back.
This matter was settled just like that. He really couldn't use the concept of the future to measure the current practice. From the envious looks of the others around him, perhaps everyone felt that Ye Shan had profited.
