Chapter 135 Manual labor
Without staying for a long time, Qin Yu and Qi Jianfei directly chose to leave.
The two of them quit the game again. The first thing Qi Jianfei did was to draw the drawings of the Ark reactor first.
Looking at the Mark's Ark Reactor on the drawings, both of them felt a little moved. Finally, they made it. It was too difficult. Now they were all together. With this thing, the manufacturing of the mecha can finally be put on the agenda.
The only pity is that because the reference video and the disassembled Ark reactor are all Mark One type Ark reactors, Qi Jianfei's manufacturing skill also Mark One type Ark reactors. Strictly speaking, this thing is a semi-finished product, and it is incomparable to what Iron Man said later. In the movie "Iron Man 1", Tony Stark's equipment is a thing that has been used for a short time and then it is out of power, which means it cannot be used for a long time.
However, considering that this thing is still unique in the real world, it is not a big problem. It is better than nothing.
After drawing the drawings, the two searched the relevant information about the reactor online to determine how advanced the technical content and technical value of their own thing are.
This search doesn't matter, and the information found both were shocked.
It turns out that arc reactors actually have prototypes in reality. In fact, they are nuclear fusion reactors. They use the principle of atomic fusion, that is, mass loss generates energy, mass-energy equation - e=m?? Relativity theory, and artificial methods to generate high-speed charged particles.
Qin Yu and Qi Jianfei are both poor students, so they naturally don’t know much about these high-end things, but even so, it can be seen that this Mark Ark reactor is really a very exciting thing.
This is actually equivalent to a mini nuclear reactor. The only difference is that the nuclear reactor burns nuclear fuel, while the ark reactor uses palladium as fuel, which is even better in terms of safety and stability.
The function of this thing is very magical, but the structure is not complicated, but the materials required are extremely unpopular. The most important thing is that palladium is used as a catalyst. Palladium is a type of platinum family and can be bought, but the price is a bit expensive. In the movie, it took 1.6 grams to make an ark reactor, and Qi Jianfei dared not be so confident. Moreover, considering that an ark reactor will not last long, he directly ordered 20 grams.
In fact, although I already know how to do it, in fact, Qi Jianfei still knows nothing about the principles inside. However, it is okay to make it according to the copy. As for whether it can be run, only God knows. Fortunately, this thing does not require core materials. Although palladium is a bit expensive, it can be bought at least, otherwise I will be able to cry to death.
After confirming the material composition, Qi Jianfei immediately started placing an order. He placed all the orders together with the mecha materials. He contacted several factories respectively, and the raw materials company was considered to have collected the orders.
These materials are expected to be available in three to five days. Some of them are special and the amount they buy is not large. However, there is no express delivery service, so you can only pick it up by yourself.
Although it will take some time to get things in place, the preparations can already begin. I slept at night, and as soon as the next morning, Qi Jianfei couldn't wait to get up.
Qin Yu also got up. He was still very curious about making mechas. He mainly brought the things in the game into reality, which always gave people a not very real feeling. Although the drawings were available, whether they could be made and whether they could be moved must be determined. Otherwise, if he learned plot magic at that time and could not be done in reality, it would be in vain.
Moreover, it is a bit difficult for Qi Jianfei to do it alone. Qin Yu, as a direct participant, naturally needs to help.
After breakfast, the two of them started working in the workshop.
The first thing to be made is the skeleton of the mecha, because there are some ready-made materials in the workshop, and this thing can be started now. As a result, the two of them found out that the work was much more difficult than they thought.
In the game, Qi Jianfei is a doctorate in mechanical engineering and has many capable assistants. In reality, Qi Jianfei is just a mechanical enthusiast who plays modified cars, and Qin Yu knows nothing about machinery.
In the game, both of them have much physical fitness than ordinary people. In reality, although they are not considered dead otakus, their physical fitness and strength are definitely not related to them. It takes a lot of effort to lift a steel plate.
In the game, Qi Jianfei's laboratory has a complete range of advanced equipment. In reality, there are only some old machine tools and welding machines.
But no matter how hard it is, you have to do it. The first thing you need to do is to cut the steel plate. The buzzing sound of the chainsaw, sparks splashing, and the cut steel plates are welded together according to the specifications on the drawings. Qi Jianfei has played with the modification truck, and he can still do welding, but his technical level is average.
The two of them struggled for two or three hours before they could get the main structure of a mechanical leg.
"I'll go, no, let's take a break!" Qi Jianfei said repeatedly, throwing the welding gun in his hand and sitting on the ground. Looking at the twisted and crooked mechanical skeleton in front of him, the excitement about how to build mechas in reality had dissipated most of the time. All that was left was doubt. Can he really make the mechas?
Qin Yu was too tired, but he had to be much tougher in his character after two lifetimes. He looked at Qi Jianfei's expression and knew what he was thinking. He smiled slightly, "Why, are you discouraged?"
"No, it's just not the same as I thought. I thought it would be as easy as in the movie."
Qin Yu smiled: "Of course it's different. You can't show all the manufacturing process when watching movies, it's just a few montage shots, but you have to know that even with the help of Dr. Ethan, it took seven days to build the mecha.
"You are obviously not Iron Man, and I am not Dr. Ethan. It will only take longer for us to build the mecha."
Qi Jianfei nodded and gritted his teeth, "Let's go ahead!" The two of them took a sip of water and started to work again. Thanks to Qi Jianfei's persistence in mechas, they supported him in one breath, otherwise he would have given up the challenge. He had never suffered this hardship before.
Qin Yu was better, after all, he was just trying to make a move.
But even though they could persevere, they were so tired that they moved at noon.
"No, no, no, this time it's really not possible. If you do it, you will be exhausted." Qi Jianfei said while putting down the tools in his hand.
Qin Yu knew he was too anxious, "Nodded, then let's go here. By the way, how long do you think it will take to build it according to the current progress?"
"If you have a mecha, you won't even think about it for a month. It's much more difficult than I thought."
Qin Yu comforted, "One month is fast enough. Think about it, in reality, it is common to develop a fighter tank or something. It is also common for several years to develop it. It is already very fast to knock out a mecha this month."
Qi Jianfei nodded, "That's true, but I can't make this thing all day. I have to continue playing in the game. In this way, it would be good to do it for four or five hours a day. It's probably a month or two, and it may take one and a half months to two months."
Qin Yu said: "That's nothing. We don't have to hurry to do it anyway. Let's build it slowly. By the way, you might as well make the mecha in the game first. First, you can practice your hands first. When doing it in reality, you can gain some experience. Second, it is convenient to level up in the mecha game, which can save a lot of time."
