[Chapter 140 Mecha Manufacturing Discussion]

Zhang Lei leaned over to look over and asked humbly for advice: “I am also aware of this problem, but I can’t find a better solution, because this mecha not only requires flexibility, but also has a very high degree of sturdiness of materials. Requirements.”

“There is obviously a very common misunderstanding in your cognition of materials. It is not only materials with strong materials that can guarantee the high defense of the mecha,” Ren Bo shook his head and said earnestly, “What about mechas? Said, flexibility and sturdiness are not in conflict, the reason why you have such a misunderstanding is because the mainstream mecha market is like this, and it really doesn’t blame you.”

Zhang Lei listened humbly, nodding from time to time during the process. , agree.

“If I were to complete the design of this mecha, I would choose a material that looks soft but is actually full of toughness, which can take into account flexibility and high defense at the same time,” Ren Bo’s fingertips crossed the design drawings. He looked up at Zhang Lei and said, “Do you still remember the mecha model released by Gu’s Mecha Factory two years ago?”

Zhang Lei’s eyes flickered slightly: “Of course I remember, when that mecha model was just launched. It is very popular because it is very flexible, it is very flexible to control, and there is almost no dead space for activities.”

Speaking of this, Zhang Lei’s tone added a touch of regret: “It’s just that the materials it uses are very expensive, and The mecha itself has no other advantages except flexibility, so it was quickly eliminated from the market.”

Zhang Lei knew about this case, but he did not think about the production of this mecha before this case, because The case itself is a clear failure in the industry.

“No, it’s not that it doesn’t have other advantages, but that when this advantage is placed on the mecha model, it can’t play a role at all,” Ren Bo shook his head and corrected, “As far as I know, that mecha model doesn’t work at all. The model is really just a test.

Gu’s original intention was to launch a real mecha of the same material, but because the cost of this type of mecha was too expensive, so when this proposal was discussed within the company, there was a great disagreement, and then it evolved into First launch it in the form of mecha models to test the flexibility of consumers. If the sales are good enough, this material will be applied to the manufacture of mechas. Zhang Lei suddenly realized: ”

So it is, so it seems that the sales of mecha models at that time did not meet the expected requirements, so it disappeared later.

Ren Bo narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “But from my personal point of view, the entire Gu family has made a very obvious mistake in this matter . ”

Zhang Lei sat upright and asked for advice humbly: “What is the mistake of Senior Ren? ”

They ignored the fundamental difference between the mecha model and the real mecha,” Ren Bo tapped lightly on the table with his fingertips, his tone slow and low, “No matter how realistic the mecha model is, in the end, It’s all just a toy. Since it’s a toy, how can it be compared with a real mecha? Therefore, their focus is completely different. In addition to imitating the real mecha, the most important part of the design of the mecha model is its appearance and fun. Therefore, the appearance of the mecha model will change frequently, and various fancy things will appear. settings.

While listening, Zhang Lei couldn’t help but nodded, obviously agreeing very much. ”

But if you think about the real mecha, except for some personal customizations, most of the mechas are similar in appearance, but you can say Is the real mecha industry just standing still? Ren Bo gave a rhetorical question, and then immediately gave the answer himself, “Of course not, the development speed of the mecha is much faster than the mecha model, but the development of the mecha is mainly reflected in its internal performance, and Not something that exists on the surface. ”

Zhang Lei nodded in agreement: “It’s true. ”

“So in my opinion, Gu’s original attempt was not wrong, but the mistake. They put materials that should be used in real mechas on the mecha model, and the final result was naturally a heavenly difference. Goodbye,” Ren Bo’s tone sounded a little regretful, “After that case appeared, I once studied the material used by Gu at that time. The material is very flexible, and it is not like its surface. It looks so soft on the surface, or it should be said that its softness is aimed at the inside of the material, and when it is consistent with the outside, the defensive performance it can provide is no worse than the mainstream materials currently used.”

Speaking of this, Ren Bo gently He sighed: “It’s just that this point is put on the mecha model, and it can’t be reflected at all. After all, no one will use the mecha model for a strict battle.”

At this time, Zhang Lei suddenly realized: “I understand!”

Many When people mention the word soft, the first reaction is to think of soft, but in fact, it is not all of them.

“You understand,” Ren Bo nodded, his eyes fell on the design plan again, and pointed out another point, “and for the weapon design of this mecha, you use the back of the white tiger as the channel for launching the energy cannon. It’s very reasonable, but don’t you think this kind of design is too monotonous?”

Zhang Lei, who had just realized it a moment ago, had a blank look on his face after hearing this question: “I have tried to increase the number of this one. The attack method of the mecha has changed, but after all, it is different from the ordinary humanoid mecha, it cannot hold a weapon.”

“This mecha can’t really hold a weapon, but you have to know that its prototype is a white tiger, and a white tiger can It’s not a species that completely loses its offensive power because it can’t hold a weapon,” Ren Bo looked up at Zhang Lei and corrected his opinion, “The white tiger really can’t hold a weapon, but it has extremely sharp teeth and enough to tear it apart. The sharp tiger claws that smash the enemy. Since this is a beast-type mecha, then we should not and cannot treat it as an ordinary mecha, it should have its own unique characteristics.”

Finished, Ren Bo glanced at Zhang Lei again.

Zhang Lei bowed his head in shame. Before contacting Senior Ren Bo, although he did not dare to boast of his high level, he was at least an experienced mecha designer with a fairly broad vision.

But after communicating with Senior Ren Bo, Zhang Lei realized how limited his thinking was and how narrow his vision was.

This design plan was driven out by him overnight. During the process, he checked a lot of information and racked his brains to achieve this level, but he didn’t expect the information he checked and the methods he came up with. Senior Ren Bo, who designed the plan, easily pointed out the problem.

And the problems here are not ordinary small problems, they are all very fatal key problems.

Thinking of this, Zhang Lei couldn’t help feeling ashamed and self-blame. If this time the customer did not invite Senior Ren Bo to be the mecha maker of this mecha, then these fatal mistakes he made are very likely to appear. In the final product, it is really a huge mistake that cannot be recovered!

So having said that, as far as he knows, Senior Ren Bo has seldom received orders in recent years, especially this kind of unremarkable order, so how did his customer easily persuade Senior Ren Bo what about?

However, this doubt was only fleeting, and was overwhelmed by the deep self-blame.

Ren Bo could easily see his thoughts from this junior, he slowed his expression, and changed his tone of encouragement: “At your age, to be able to complete such a design plan in such a short period of time has already It’s very rare. And it’s not terrible to make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes. I also made many mistakes when I was young. Maybe it’s because of these mistakes that I have accumulated more experience and moved to a higher position.”

With the encouragement of his predecessors, Zhang Lei quickly regained his energy: “Thank you, senior, I will work hard!”

An Yan, who has been sitting quietly on the side and absorbed a lot of knowledge from the conversation between the two, also took the initiative to comfort: “I also think that designer Zhang is already very good.”

Next, the three of them had a further discussion on the specific content of the design plan. Of course, during the whole process, An Yan was basically in a listening state. Only when they encountered some design requirements, the two would put him also pull in.

And just like that, three hours passed silently.

After finalizing the last question, Ren Bo and Zhang Lei finally stopped.

The former is because it is rare to receive such a novel and interesting list, so naturally he spends more time on it, while the latter is more because he can communicate with such a powerful senior as Ren Bo, so he showed interest from beginning to end. exuberant.

Although An Yan didn’t know much about the discussion between the two, but after all, it was a mecha customized by himself, and of course he was full of interest.

The two finally stopped discussing. An Yan glanced at the time and took the initiative to say, “It’s getting late. If the two don’t mind, let’s have lunch together.”

Ren Bo didn’t want to eat out. Well, but after thinking about his granddaughter’s repeated instructions before he went out, Ren Bo still nodded: “Okay then.”

Now that Ren Bo agreed, Zhang Lei had no reason to disagree.

So the three moved to a nearby restaurant and started their lunch trip.

During the meal, the three of them stopped talking about the mecha design, but chatted aimlessly while eating.

But the small talk belongs to An Yan and Zhang Lei, and the worry belongs to Ren Bo alone. His temperament is not good at taking the initiative to find topics, especially in small talk, and his age is here, if he is too active, it is not too much. Out of shelf?

But if he didn’t ask, he would definitely be surrounded by his granddaughter complaining when he got home.

Ren Bo was eating, sighing, thinking about things, and was struggling. After listening to Zhang Lei pause for a while, he hesitated and asked, “We should have many opportunities to communicate in the future. I don’t know what to call it?”

In the previous communication, An Yan had never disclosed his name. Although he thought it was nothing at first, it was always inconvenient to communicate more frequently.

As soon as Ren Bo heard this sentence, his eyes lit up. If An Yan said his name directly at this time, wouldn’t he be able to ask one more question?

And maybe he didn’t need to speak, Zhang Lei helped him ask it out?
