Chapter 162 Experiment (First Update)
In the laboratory and warehouse behind Liu Hai, materials are being continuously gathered, mainly some basic materials, and then small blowers and furnaces are being installed on the other side.
Liu Hai looked at this simple stove and missed the materials laboratory in his previous life. The field of materials in aviation was wider and more numerous. One aircraft integrated the pinnacle of the field of human materials.
With this small furnace, Liu Hai can build a small engine by himself. At least a single-cylinder diesel engine will not have much problem.
Our single-cylinder diesel engine actually originated from a small book. This thing is a classic of its generation.
Liu Hai feels that in our current situation, trucks and everything are a bit luxurious. Liu Hai has seen some construction sites with a diesel engine in front of the cab, a truck body at the back, and a high chassis. They can all operate normally on the road conditions like the construction site. .
This kind of technology is low in cost, has a wide range of adaptability, and is simple to operate. The current industrial system is weak, and trucks and the like can be put aside completely.
Liu Hai watched the furnace being made and collected materials in the laboratory, while Li Dali and others made molds according to the drawings given by Liu Hai. The motorcycle factory was recruiting workers again.
This time, we are recruiting workers for the annual production of 50,000 motorcycles. Next to the hydraulic workshop, we have begun to sort out the land and clear away the weeds.
Liu Hai's laboratory was very simple, not as good as today's small workshops. There were no lathes, milling machines, boring machines, etc. Liu Hai had not thought of asking the factory director to come forward, but it was unlikely.
Therefore, Liu Hai is going to make his own, and even the electric motor Liu Hai is going to make himself. This is a bit troublesome. The finished motors are all planned. It doesn’t mean that you can buy them directly if you are short of anything. If not, you can just go to the motor factory. No, unless there is a note.
Liu Hai felt that he had to go to the factory to owe a favor, and then he had to go to the factory to owe a favor. Yes, it may not be easy to use if you hold the note. Anyway, you don't dare to forcefully pick up the goods. Then the delivery of a certain factory will be delayed. Yes, it was you who caused it...
Go the old way, patchwork, imitation, new….
There was no way I could do it without piecing it together at first. I couldn’t make the spindle of the lathe by myself. It was best to process it after forging. In later generations, there was a large-scale road in the capital of Shu. Many large-scale forged components for water and electricity went from that road to the port. of.
Half a month later, Liu Hai's laboratory was almost ready, and the small furnace was also tested. However, the pollution was a bit high, and there was no electric furnace or the like to burn coke.
At noon on Saturday, after dinner, Sun Aiguo called Liu Hai to the office and said, "The leader has a plan for the patent thing you mentioned last time."
"Oh." Liu Hai originally wanted to give it a try, but he would wait two years before saying anything. He just said that he had ignored the existence of certain people.
"The leaders asked professional people for consultation. Patent registration, publicity, and follow-up, how should I put it, all cost money, and there are some shameless capitalists in the West who rely on their own money to compete with others. Grab the patent..." Sun Aiguo opened his mouth to popularize Liu Hai.
Why doesn’t Liu Hai know the tricks of capitalists? Even if you register a patent, you may give up for many reasons. The biggest one is litigation. Because they want money, big capitalists will continue to litigate you. When you run out of money to litigate, use a very extreme method. Let’s settle with you at a low price.
For whom are Western laws made? In Liu Hai's opinion, they are made for the judicial system. There is a saying in the West that people can't live without lawyers in their lives. The real plaintiff and defendant take all.
Take cases involving hundreds of millions of dollars in compensation. In fact, more money ends up in the pockets of lawyers, because these lawyers will spend money to attend charity receptions or charity auctions organized by certain people.
Yes, this is a clear transfer of interests. In the West, everything is because of money.
But if you don’t register your patent, it will be even more uncomfortable to wait for someone else to register it and then sue you.
In the West, if someone wants to file a lawsuit, you have to spend money to hire a lawyer in order to win. If you don't actively participate in the lawsuit, the probability of losing is too high.
In addition, there are many ways to circumvent a single patent. Around the world, patents are being circumvented. There is no way around it. As long as you can circumvent it, that's your skill.
Appearance patents are easy to bypass. Material technology is definitely not that simple. The material ratio is easy to imitate, but what about the heat treatment process?
And as long as a patent is registered, under the same circumstances, the only choice is whose product is more cost-effective. So later, large companies formed a series of patent barriers. Seeing that a patent expires, it will take another 20 years to optimize.
Why do people still buy the machining tools of later generations when they are expensive to import? Are they stupid?
The reason why our car engines have never been good in the future is because Western car companies have too many patent barriers. If you are not careful, you will not make any money and you will pay back.
There is another point in our mainland. If the technology you develop yourself is infringed by some companies, you have to file a lawsuit. If the local government protects this company, you will just stare. People say it is good, but there are only a few in my place. Enterprise, is it possible that you want me to go bankrupt?
Of course, the latter is better, so many companies are willing to pay high prices to buy foreign patents. Anyway, if someone infringes the patent, I don't want to file a lawsuit...
"Now we have no way to get this patent, so we are going to have someone do it on Hong Kong Island. It will be experimental. The leader also said that parts can be sent from the mainland for assembly." Sun Aiguo finally said.
Liu Hai also knows that it is not possible to obtain patents in China now. After all, the domestic circle is mixed with Big Brother, and the Western circle is another one. However, the technology can be given to some people in Hong Kong Island, and these people can act as agents. What if the situation is opened up? , that’s fine, but it really doesn’t work. Who in Hong Kong can still do their job? It’s not the same as parallel importing.
"Ahem, factory director, since others may bypass our patent, can we also counterattack? People on Hong Kong Island can send some technology back. We have a lot of talents in the mainland, maybe we can... Although I heard It sounds a bit unpleasant.”
When Sun Aiguo heard this, he thought, that's right. Our technology can be bypassed by others, so why can't we bypass other people's?
"Of course, this is just a suggestion, and it may not be able to bypass other people's technology." Liu Hai continued. Patenting is definitely not that simple. There are some things that you can't even make if you visit the production workshop, but it can be said that, for I’ll prepare myself by copying things later.
"Yeah." Sun Aiguo nodded, thinking to himself, you capitalists are shameless, so we will be shameless.
Liu Hai continued to return to the maintenance department. Gou Rong had just returned from the field and said, "Our new tricycle is better. The old one always breaks down."
"There's nothing we can do about it."
"Everyone is asking us when we will get on a larger tricycle, but the current supply is not enough."
"Wait a minute." Liu Hai had no choice. He did have a lot of good things, but he was limited by manufacturing technology, and he couldn't take them too fast. Even if Liu Hai took out an eight-cylinder diesel engine now, he would still make it. Not coming out….
