Chapter 0303 - One of a Standout

The car that Li Jianneng saw was the Hongqi Dongfeng sedan designed by Zhou Jingming, which was also the first time this car was made public to everyone, but at present, only the body shape of the car has been determined, and the relevant internal configurations, Zhou Jingming is ready to make further optimizations.

The reason why the model of this car was put on display at this auto show is mainly to warm up the official sale of this car, according to Zhou Jingming's work plan, this car is expected to be officially put on the market in 1988, before the official launch, a certain amount of attention is very necessary.

Li Jianneng, who was standing there, looked at the time, and then looked at the exhibition car in the Hongqi exhibition area, after a battle between heaven and man, Li Jianneng turned around and quickly walked towards the exhibition area of FAW Hongqi.

When he got closer, Li Jianneng gradually saw the whole picture of the car.

On the whole, this car has the shadow of the old Hongqi, especially the unique grille of Hongqi and the Hongqi logo retained at the front end of the body, so that people can know at a glance that this car is definitely a Hongqi series.

But compared with the old red flag in Li Jianneng's cognition, this car has its own unique changes, especially in terms of body shape, a change from the previous square image, the overall look is more rounded, the four corners of the front and rear of the body and the front windshield, rear hatchback design, the arc transition replaces the previous sharp edges and corners, the sense of muscle is not as strong as before, but in the sense of power and technology, it is better.

Of course, when Zhou Jingming designed this car, he also fully took into account the current level of sheet metal technology and lathe processing technology, if the body design is too rounded, there is no way to achieve mass production, so Zhou Jingming designed this Hongqi Dongfeng car, the overall shape does not look like the car we see today, it is a body shape in the transition stage.

When he saw Zhou Jingming's design drawings for the first time, Chen Dongsheng did not raise doubts, after all, all the mainstream car manufacturers in the world have produced car shapes that are full of mechanical sense and square appearance, and the changes made by Zhou Jingming, Chen Dongsheng is worried that they will not be accepted by mainstream consumer groups.

However, Zhou Jingming finally overcame public opinion and adhered to his own design concept, and Chen Dongsheng also chose to believe Zhou Jingming's judgment, so the car on display at the auto show today was completely in accordance with Zhou Jingming's design drawings.

In Li Jianneng's cognition, all cars should be like Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Santana outside, angular, muscular, it seems that from the first day he knew about the car, the car has grown like this, and it has not changed for so many years.

For Li Jianneng, who is accustomed to seeing the square body shape, the car in front of him still has a great visual impact on him, but Li Jianneng does not feel that there is anything wrong with this kind of car, on the contrary, he even thinks that this body shape is more in line with his own aesthetics!

Compared with the old Hongqi, the design of the front lights and rear taillights of this car has also been greatly changed, although there is no rest of the things in the car, but Li Jianneng can feel that the interior space of this car is very large!

I have to say that Li Jianneng is moved!

This is a new model that is completely different from all the cars he has seen before, Li Jianneng has a hunch, maybe all the cars in the future will be like this, I can't say!

"Can you ask, what is the name of this car?" Li Jianneng, who had been staring at the car for several minutes, raised his head and asked a staff member.

"This car is called Hongqi Dongfeng, and it is the first Hongqi sub-brand car launched by our FAW Hongqi, which was designed by our Mr. Zhou Jingming himself!" said the staff on the side with a smile.

Red flag east wind?

Sub-branding!

Li Jianneng quickly understood the market positioning of this car, and the high-flying "national car" is finally going to launch its own sub-brand models for ordinary consumers?

"But this Zhou Jingming is really surprising! He has the ability to design a model by himself!" Thinking of the last words of the staff, Li Mingzhe felt a burst of emotion, as if all the focus of this auto show is related to Zhou Jingming.

"Then can you ask, when will this car be put on the market?" Li Jianneng retracted his thoughts and continued to ask.

At present, it is just a model, and what Li Jianneng can see is only the body shape, but since it was designed by Zhou Jingming, Li Jianneng believes that the specific performance of the car will definitely not be bad.

So if you know the release time of this car, Li Jianneng plans to snap up one as soon as possible!

It is expected to go on sale in 1988. The staff replied with a smile.

"1988? Isn't that early? Li Jianneng muttered in a low voice, and then didn't ask anything else, took a lot of photos around the car, and then remembered that his family was still waiting for him there, so he hurried over.

At this time, more and more people have also discovered the difference of Hongqi Dongfeng this car, driven by the herd effect, many people immediately surrounded this car, the original sparsely populated FAW Hongqi exhibition area, instantly became the hottest exhibition area in the domestic car exhibition area, even the number of onlookers on Santana's side, is not as good as here.

"The shape of this car is so unique!"

"No, it's not like all the cars out there. ”

"At first glance it looks a little weird, but if you look closely, I think it's pretty beautiful, better than a BMW Mercedes-Benz car. ”

"This is Hongqi's brand car, a special car for the central leadership, if I can afford this kind of car, it will be worth it for a lifetime!"

…………

While watching, these viewers gave their own evaluation of the Hongqi Dongfeng car, and overall, Zhou Jingming's design was still recognized by the vast majority of people.

"Is this the car you designed for FAW Hongqi? The styling is really novel. At the outskirts of the crowd, Lee Ming-che asked with a smile as he stood with his hands in his hands.

"I have only made some small changes to the styling, and when I have the opportunity, Director Li can take a look at another car I designed, compared to the Hongqi Dongfeng model, the body shape is more avant-garde, and it is guaranteed to surprise you. Zhou Jingming replied with a smile.

The change of public aesthetics requires a gradual process, and Hongqi Dongfeng is just an introduction to leading this fashion.

"Hearing you say that, I'd like to see the car you're talking about as soon as possible. Lee Ming-che said with a little surprise.

Zhou Jingming said that the other car designed by him must be prepared for him to build his own car in the future, does this mean that Zhou Jingming will not stay in a state-owned enterprise for a long time?
