Romanian Eagle Chapter 446 Dieter Rams Audio Novel Listen Online

Other Romanians in Germany were also on duty as naval personnel inspected the Royal Wilhelm Dockyard.

Two men in suits were knocking on the door outside a small two-story building on Hamburg's Loewstraße.

"Crench."

After the door was opened, an old woman looked out.

Then one of the men smiled and said, "Hello, is this Mr. Dieter Rams' house?"

"Yes, what's the matter with you?"

"Hello, we are from Romania. We heard that Mr. Dieter Rams is currently out of work, so we came to visit."

Hearing the man's words, the old woman looked at the two strangers and opened the door. Now that there are too many unemployed people in Germany, the law and order are not very good, and some precautions are normal. It is not surprising that the two of them have already done so.

"Rams, these two gentlemen are looking for you."

After the old woman brought the two to the living room, she immediately went upstairs and shouted to a room.

At this time, there was a slow response from the room, "Okay mom, I understand. Come over when I finish this picture, and ask them to wait for a while."

Who knew that this sentence made the old woman a little unhappy, and immediately shouted through the door loudly, "I keep drawing your drawings every day when I have nothing to do. Can these drawings become real? You have been kicked out by the Design Bureau. Don't forget those ships. One day I'm not happy, and I'll bring all your blueprints to the fire."

The two visitors who were listening to the conversation looked at each other and smiled silently.

After a while, the old woman came to them with a teapot and two cups.

"You two, please have some tea first."

"thanks."

Looking at the inferior black tea in the cup in front of them, combined with the clean but severely worn furniture in the living room, the two have a general understanding of the economic situation of the family.

The waiting time for the two was not long, and a middle-aged man in his forties in a shirt and vest walked downstairs after a while. Her hair looked messy and messy, as if she hadn't taken care of it for several days. And the vest was probably only worn, because the buckle was misplaced, but the owner didn't notice it.

The two had seen the photos before they came and could be sure it was Dieter Rams himself.

"Hello Mr. Dieter Rams."

Before he could walk in front of him, the two greeted him and said, "My name is Alex, this is my colleague Boris, we are from Romania."

In the face of the enthusiasm of the two, Dieter Rams will be much calmer. He stretched out his hand to shake hands with the two and said, "Good morning, gentlemen."

After the three of them were seated, Dieter Rams said directly, "If you have anything to say, just tell me, I'm still busy and need to draw."

In the face of Dieter Rams' direct, the two immediately overturned the previous plan, and the Romanian named Alex said, "Then let's just say it straight, we are Romanian naval personnel. I heard that your Excellency He has his own unique views on ship design, so I intend to invite you to design warships for our navy."

"Romanian Navy?"

"Yes, that's right, the Romanian Navy."

Dieter Rams, who answered in the affirmative, said with a smile, "As far as I know, the Romanian Navy's largest warship at present is a Korburg-class cruiser in our country. You must know that the ship I designed is much larger than this one. Do you get government funding?"

Don't blame Dieter Rams for saying that, because it's about the current state of the Romanian navy, and he's saying it better. Among the German naval designers contacted by Romania, most of them heard the invitation from the Romanian Navy, but politely declined, and both of them are used to it.

"Mr. Dieter Rams, our current naval strength is indeed not on the table. However, our country has now recognized the insufficiency of this problem and has already increased its naval military expenditure. In addition, our country is negotiating the purchase of the Royal William Dockyard.

As long as this shipyard can be relocated to Romania, we will have the ability to manufacture warships of more than 10,000 tons. I think Your Excellency is no stranger to the capabilities of the Royal William Dockyard. "

Faced with the words of the two, Dieter Rams certainly knew the strength of the Royal William Dockyard. I have been to a large shipyard that can build a king-class, and I have been there many times.

"However, the relocation of the shipyard is not a trivial matter, and the loss of employees and equipment during the relocation is not small."

As soon as the two heard that the recruitment was interesting, they immediately followed up and said, "Of course, we will recruit employees from the original shipyard, as long as they are willing to go to Romania. And in order to enhance the strength of this shipyard, we will also recruit excellent shipbuilders in Germany. Mechanic. We will strive to make this shipyard a world-famous shipyard and let the world know its name."

Dieter Rams listened to the Romanian navy officer finish, and then asked, "But this is just your Romanian plan, but what does it have to do with me."

Faced with the question suddenly raised by Mr. Dieter Rams, the two of them did not respond immediately. "what?"

"I said it's just your Romanian plan, and it has nothing to do with me."

In the face of Dieter Rams' intruding question, the two immediately racked their brains to think.

Wrong direction?

It's quite possible. You must know that Mr. Dieter Rams, but in the German Naval Ship Design Bureau, there is also a discord with his colleagues. In fact, from the very beginning when he received the two of them, he showed no doubt that who would let the other person finish talking quickly when receiving others, and he was still busy with something. It is also because of his character, otherwise he would not be gifted in design, and he was laid off immediately. For such a withdrawn genius designer, it is indeed impossible to use the previous way.

After trying to understand the problem, Alex continued, "Indeed, the shipyard is only the construction facility, and the designer is the soul of the warship. I wonder if your Excellency can give us a tour of your workshop, we heard you in Drawing the blueprints, we happen to know a thing or two about the design of warships.”

"You also understand warship design?"

"know a bit."

Sure enough, after hearing that the two of them also understood ship design, Dieter Rams' attitude gap became unusual. He warmly invited, "Then come and see me and evaluate my work."

The two followed Dieter Rams to his workshop. As soon as the door of the workshop was opened, there were scattered drawings and a half-drawn hull drawing, and there were still some dried coffee stains on the workbench, proclaiming that this talented designer is not a person who likes to deal with details. people.

Dieter Rams pulled the two to a drawing, pointed to it and said to the two, "Guess what ship this drawing is based on."

The two of them looked at this drawing with a huge chimney standing on it, which was a bit like a Bavarian class, and the turret layout was one after the other, so there was no German style at all, but the layout of the two triangular rails was somewhat similar. The Flinger-class battlecruiser. And look at its floor plan more like.

After the two exchanged for a while, they tried to say, "Is this a major change in the Flinger class?"

After hearing the words of the two, Dieter Rams said happily, "That's right, this is a greatly changed blueprint of the Fringer class. I changed the four-turret with the first two and the second layout to the three-turret with the first two and one after the other. , so that you can have an extra gun. And the flue is also changed to one, like the Bavarian class. The Battle of Jutland has shown that too many flues increase the chance of being hit and affect shooting. No Thinking of the ship that has been changed, you can hardly see the prototype, and you can also know the whole story."

Obviously this is a test, and if the two can't answer it, the visit is likely to end there. After the passage, Dieter Rams pulled the two of them to the other drawings and described the plan he designed. The two saw improved drawings based on various warships.

Bavaria class, Mackensen class, King class, Queen Elizabeth class, Duke of Cavour class, United Force class, Wyoming class, etc., the two felt that they came to the improvement of the drawings of the main ships of various countries.

Of course, in addition to improving the capital ship, Dieter Rams also made other ship drawings, but these drawings cannot be seen in his hands at all. This is not to blame for the two of them. Who knew that this person was so perverted that he simply collected all the drawings of ships from various countries. The two also asked him curiously about this, who knew that Dieter Rams said that most of his drawings were surveyed and drawn through photos. Because the design principles of warships are the same, as long as the principles are thoroughly understood, the three reasonable layouts of firepower, speed and protection can be achieved.

These words made sense, and the two of them were a little red-faced when they heard it. Sure enough, the genius is not ordinary.

After visiting his studio, the two who felt they had found the treasure immediately strongly recommended the talented designer to Calust. And said that the warship that can guarantee Romania's future navy is in a first-class design level. And His Excellency the Captain of the Guard is very curious that a single designer can guarantee the quality of naval ship design.

So one day, the captain of the bodyguard rushed over with the naval negotiator. These naval personnel are somewhat dissatisfied with the idea that one person can change the design level, and none of them dare to say such a big word if they have not been deposited in it for many years.

At this time, Dieter Rams showed his perverted ability. He was speechless to the rebuttals of all the Romanian naval personnel who came, and was impressed by the talent of this genius.

For this reason, Carust also deliberately informed Edel of the genius Dieter Rams through a telegram.

"Dieter Rams, never heard of this one's name."

Edel thought about it with the telegram, and he has never heard of this person who left a big name in his later generations. But it doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it, as long as Romania is a genius, it can go all out to recruit. After all, Romania needs a navy in the future, and he is not reconciled to the fact that his forces will be shrunk into the Black Sea.

So under Edel's instructions, Romania offered the genius the seat of chief ship designer. More importantly, he gave him a three-year commitment, and he would be responsible for designing a warship of more than 10,000 tons for the Romanian Navy. Within six years, he designed another battleship for Romania.

It is also a unique condition in the world to open up the design tasks of two warships for one ship designer. Not to mention a battleship, which is simply incredible.

So Dieter Rams became famous, and the other powers were amazed by Romania's actions. In the ship design world, it also caused an uproar, and the battleships were not facing competition from many peers, and there were even a few people who used outboard tricks.

The consequence of this is that there are many unwilling ship designers, who have a great interest in Romania. They all took their own plans and went to Romania to sell themselves. They did not seek the same conditions as Dieter Rams, as long as their own designs could meet the construction requirements.

However, so many designers rushed to Romania, which made the naval department feel a lot of pressure. But unfortunately, most of the unlucky designers are not really strong enough, and only a few are real talents. And these talents, of course, the naval department did not let go, and they were immediately enriched into the design department.

Therefore, the strength of Romanian ship design is also growing rapidly. After the relocation of the Royal William Shipyard, a large number of excellent design drawings were also placed in front of the Navy. At this time, they also experienced the troubles of happiness.
