After the production base in three places entered the construction at the same time, the production preparation of Yixuan SUV has basically ended, and the remaining personnel recruitment problem is not a difficult thing for Zhou Jingming, if it is said that before the official sale of Yixuan SUV, Zhou Jingming still wants to do something, then there is only one publicity and momentum.

In this regard, Zhou Jingming has made some preparations in advance, becoming a global partner of FIFA is one of them, in June this year, the 15th World Cup will officially kick off in the United States, Zhou Jingming hopes that there will be Yixuan SUV figure in this World Cup.

Although in June, the Yixuan SUV has not yet reached the level of mass production, but the assembly of the prototype car, there should be no problem, and it will really be able to carry out mass production, but it will also need to go through a series of road tests, etc., and it will not be realized until the beginning of next year at the earliest.

At present, the cycle of Tianming Automobile Company's research and development of a new car, from the initial research to the final mass production, is generally about two years, such a short research and development cycle, in the entire international automotive industry, is the fastest one, the rest of the car manufacturers, whether it is a large car company like Mercedes-Benz BMW, or a relatively small car manufacturer, a new car research and development cycle is about four years.

Comparatively speaking, Tianming's R&D cycle is basically only half of theirs, and the short R&D cycle does not mean that the quality and performance of the new cars developed are not up to standard, on the contrary, all the current models of Tianming Company are qualified in terms of quality and performance standards.

The reason why the development of a new car can be completed in such a short time is mainly because Zhou Jingming has a complete set of advanced automobile development processes in his mind, and before each new car is developed, Zhou Jingming begins to conceive the technical requirements of the major assemblies of the new car in his mind half a year or even a year in advance, and then when the project is formally established, the preliminary technical plan can be given, which can greatly reduce the research and development cycle.

If you count the time for Jingming's preliminary preparation, the time required for Tianming Company to develop a new car will also be about three years, which is not much different from other car manufacturers.

In addition, the development of new cars, Zhou Jingming can not rely only on Tianming company itself to complete the development, except for the key parts by Tianming company's own engineers to complete the development, most of the rest of the parts, are developed by the corresponding suppliers in accordance with their requirements, and these suppliers, including Bosch and Continental Electronics such as top suppliers.

Maddie once said, "no brother, no basketball", which means that basketball is not a person's sport, and similarly, the development of new cars is not a company's business, otherwise it will become a typical "closed-door car", supplier management as one of the important businesses of automobile manufacturers, can also reflect the comprehensive strength of an automobile manufacturer from the side.

No matter how ambitious Zhou Jingming is, he will not be stupid enough to let Tianming Automobile Company get involved in all the upstream and downstream industries of the automotive industry, as long as he can retain his core technology, the rest of the parts design, who designed it, and where it was designed, in fact, it doesn't matter at all.

In addition to relying on the World Cup that will start in June to build momentum for Yixuan SUV, before the World Cup, Zhou Jingming also wants to warm up through some other activities.

The headquarters of Tianming Automobile Company.

After entering the new year, Xu Weidong, who had been in Southeast Asia for half a year, also returned to China again, and was reporting to Zhou Jingming about related work.

Zhou Jingming was holding a work report handed over to him by Xu Weidong at this time, looking at it carefully, while Xu Weidong was briefly interpreting it on the side.

"Last year, our company in the Southeast Asian market, a total of 80,000 small Fuwa cars were sold, of which the Thai market accounted for 50,000 units, the remaining 30,000 were digested in the rest of the country, it is expected that this year in the Southeast Asian market, can sell the small Fuwa car, will reach about 150,000 units, if it can open up the situation in the Vietnamese market and the Malaysian market, it is possible to break through 200,000 sales. ”

"The Southeast Asian market is mainly to take loans to buy cars to promote the increase in sales, for our company, has always been a region with more investment, my plan for the Southeast Asian market is to use three to five years to stabilize, so this piece, for the time being, there is no need to rush. ”

Zhou Jingming put down the materials in his hand, and then continued, "The Southeast Asian market will be handed over to the rest of the people for the time being, second brother, you should stay in China first, and the sales of Yixuan SUV will depend on you to open up the situation." ”

The sales situation in Southeast Asia has far exceeded Zhou Jingming's expectations, and since Tianming Company has gained a firm foothold in the Southeast Asian market and handed over the things there to the rest of the people, Zhou Jingming is also relieved.

"No problem, this SUV, but it's named after my baby godson, and if I don't sell this car all over the world, I'm embarrassed to be his godfather. Xu Weidong said with a smile.

Zhou Jingming smiled helplessly, for Zhou Yixuan, Xu Weidong, Wang Yuanchao and Li Jianguo, the three godfathers, are even better than his own father, the little guy is about to reach his first birthday, I don't know what new tricks these people are going to toss.

"The Southeast Asian thing is here for the time being, so let me talk about the Yixuan SUV. Zhou Jingming paused, and then looked at Zhao Ke, "Senior brother, I called you this time mainly to let you take the lead in holding an automobile event for the promotion of Yixuan SUV." ”

"Automobile events?" Zhao Ke looked at Zhou Jingming with some curiosity, "If it is simply to improve the popularity of Yixuan's car, wouldn't it be better to directly participate in the existing automobile events in the world?

At present, Tianming Racing Team has grown into the most competitive comprehensive team in the world, except for the highest level of F1 has not been involved, the rest of the FIA-related events, Tianming Racing Team has won many awards, the Phoenix car and Kirin car, but also by virtue of the WRC Rally Championship and the 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race in one fell swoop.

Jingming proposed to hold an automobile event this time, in addition to building momentum for Yixuan SUV, more importantly, he wanted to take this opportunity to develop domestic motor sports. Xu Weidong on the side said thoughtfully.

Zhou Jingming nodded with a smile, "Second brother is right, I want to hold such a car event, the actual purpose is twofold, not only to accumulate fame for Yixuan SUV, but also to promote automobile sports in China, so that more people can understand this exciting sport." ”
