After arranging the relevant tasks, Zhou Jingming and Zhao Ke walked out of the conference room first, leaving the technical staff of the product department and the automotive electronics factory to continue to discuss the technical plan and formulate the implementation plan of the project.

"When do you plan to organize a meeting on the development of the family car?" Zhao Ke said as he walked. As the most important task of Tianming Automobile Company in the second half of this year and even next year, Zhou Jingming has already greeted Zhao Ke and several other major company managers in advance.

"It should be after October, about November, I will officially set up the development of family cars, and at that time, our company's business focus will slowly tilt from the European and American markets to the domestic market. Zhou Jingming replied with a smile.

Meals to eat bite by bite, from now to September, the most important thing for the company is to get the loading of the ESP system, as for September to October, Zhou Jingming naturally has other things to do, or rather, this matter is the most important thing for his life.

However, in fact, on the research and development of family cars, Tianming Automobile Company has begun to prepare, engine and transmission research institute, has undertaken the research and development of family car engines and gearboxes, has entered the research and development stage, the company's existing engines, whether it is a rotary engine, or an in-line four-cylinder engine, the cost is relatively high, and it is not suitable for family cars at all, so this time Zhou Jingming's requirements are to develop a practical engine with good power and low price, and for the gearbox, Zhou Jingming also put forward the same requirements。

"If the project is established in November, it will definitely be officially released before the end of next year. Zhao Ke nodded, and then the tone of his voice became serious, "I have worked in the automobile industry for so many years, to be honest, I also want to see what the family car in our country will look like, and I also want to see what it will be like when every family can afford to drive the car we produce." ”

"I'm looking forward to that day too, and that day will come soon. Zhou Jingming stopped, stared at Zhao Ke's eyes, and said with a smile.

The wish that he couldn't fulfill in his previous life will be fulfilled in this life soon, and Zhou Jingming also feels full of emotion. This promise is also a promise he made to Mr. Rao Bin, Zhou Jingming does not allow himself to make any mistakes in this matter.

The two of them chatted while walking, and soon arrived at Zhou Jingming's office, "Xiao Zhou, I forgot to ask you, you have been emphasizing that you will complete the development of the ESP system prototype before September, is there any big move?"

When they were about to separate, Zhao Ke asked curiously. has been working with Zhou Jingming for so long, and Zhao Ke has discovered that every time Zhou Jingming emphasizes a certain time, it means that at that time, something very important will happen.

"You can guess. Zhou Jingming smiled mysteriously and did not answer directly.

"ESP system...... Prototype ...... Could it be related to a certain auto show?" Zhao Ke thought about it seriously and suddenly said. It's a prototype and a new technology, and there's nothing like an auto show that suits that association.

"You can continue to guess, which auto show will it be?" Zhou Jingming smiled, acquiescing to Zhao Ke's conjecture.

"Is it really an auto show?" Zhao Ke was shocked, "The Geneva Motor Show is in March, it's definitely not this, and the North American Auto Show is in January, so it's even less likely to be this one, could it be the Paris Motor Show or the Frankfurt Motor Show?"

Zhao Ke knows a lot about the internationally famous auto shows, and the time that Zhou Jingming said is more consistent, only the Paris Motor Show and the Frankfurt Motor Show, but Zhao Ke can't further determine which one it is.

Zhou Jingming still had a mysterious smile on his face, "You'll know when the time comes." ”

***

In the next time, Zhou Jingming is much easier than some time ago, the development of the ESP system has ended, and the rest of the company's affairs are in charge, and Zhou Jingming does not need to worry about it. The Italian World Cup also officially came to an end on July 9, with the German tank defeating the South American eagles Argentina with a score of 1-0, and the team won the Hercules Cup for the third time in team history.

Although the World Cup is over, the advertising effect brought by the World Cup,. But it is still continuing, the European and American markets, the sales of Phoenix cars and Kirin cars are rising, especially in the United States and Germany, the two sales centers are the most ferocious, and the newly developed two sales areas of the United Kingdom and France, have also begun to slowly show a momentum of rapid growth, the performance of the entire European and American markets, even beyond Zhou Jingming's expectations, if it is not for the two major domestic production bases to produce at full capacity, there is almost no way to meet the consumer demand there.

The time soon entered August, and the sales results in July were also released soon: the sales of Phoenix brand and Kirin sedan in the European and American markets reached a new high, exceeding 40,000 for the first time, and the Kirin sedan was even more unbeatable, and the overall sales were about to break through the 30,000 mark.

In the face of such sales results, almost no one in China criticizes Zhou Jingming with the sky-high price of sponsoring the World Cup, and the sales have skyrocketed for two consecutive months, which can already show the success of sports marketing.

On the European and American markets, under the integration of Xu Weidong, a unified whole has gradually been formed, and the connection of the sales network is closer.

At the same time, on the domestic side, Tianming Automobile Company also took the lead in passing the initial audit of the 16949 quality management system, and there were no unqualified items, which gave the rest of the domestic car companies a good start.

Not only that, ESP prototype development, but also under the leadership of the product department, has overcome many technical difficulties, only a month, the product department has completed the body restructuring design, is currently being produced by the welding workshop for the restructured body, and the next step, you can carry out offline ESP system assembly and real car testing, once the offline assembly has no problem, then next, you can consider this optional configuration to arrange the assembly process of the assembly workshop, online assembly.

At this moment, Frankfurt, an important commercial city in eastern Germany, is busy with an important event.

"We have already sent invitations to relevant car manufacturers, including German OEMs and parts suppliers, as well as important car manufacturers in the United States, the rest of Europe, and Japan and South Korea in Asia. In an old house in the center of Frankfurt, a German man said with an invitation in his hand.

"What about China? In particular, has the Tianming Automobile Company also sent an invitation?" asked an old man sitting there, looking at the materials in his hand.

"I've already given invitations, and I'll call again to confirm them when the auto show is about to start. The man replied respectfully.
