Chapter 0326 - Buy the brand
"Xiao Zhou, why are you here?" Zhao Ke hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
"Senior brother, you're back!" Zhou Jingming smiled, "I just came back from the gear factory, so I'll come over and have a look." ”
Zhao Ke opened the door of the office, "Come in and talk." ”
"I just held a mobilization meeting for the workers, and I walked around the workshop again, you are so busy now, it's hard for you to remember me. Zhao Ke walked into the house and said while pouring water.
"Senior brother, where is this, if it were not for the support and promotion of you and the factory director at the beginning, I would definitely not be where I am today, and it is the honor of my life to be able to leave traces here. Zhou Jingming hurriedly said.
SAIC Car Factory is indeed the starting point of Zhou Jingming's career, without this stage, Zhou Jingming will definitely not be able to have today's achievements.
"It's a pity, you've done so much for this factory, but in the end you still haven't escaped such an ending, I've always felt sorry for you. Zhao Ke said as he spoke, and his mood suddenly became depressed again.
"It's not your fault, senior brother, or rather, it's not anyone's fault, so don't think about it so much, senior brother, if you change anyone to be the factory director here, the outcome may be the same. Zhou Jingming took the teacup and comforted.
Originally, the last time I came with Xu Guanglu, I thought that the shutdown of the car factory would be at the end of 1988, but no one expected that it would be stopped a year in advance.
"When I first received the notice from SAIC, I couldn't sleep, but now it's a little better, especially after confessing to the workers today, I don't feel any baggage. Zhao Ke smiled and said bitterly.
"It's good that you can think about it, I'm afraid that Senior Brother will take all the responsibility for the suspension of production on yourself. Zhao Ke can think so, and Zhou Jingming is also a lot relieved, "Anyway, there is still a year to go, and the production of the factory will be arranged normally, maybe, there will be any unexpected surprises in the later stage." ”
Stayed in the car factory for a while, Zhou Jingming rushed to the Qingcheng 4S store again, the suspension of Shencheng brand cars, the biggest loss, I'm afraid it is Wen Zhuqing's 4S store, Wen Zhuqing invested in the 4S store at that time, a large part of the reason is because of Zhou Jingming, now there is such a situation, Zhou Jingming said that he has to take a look.
However, to Zhou Jingming's surprise, when he came to the Qingcheng 4S store, he found that there were four or five people buying cars in the store at the same time, and the business was even better than before.
"This car is going to be discontinued, and if you don't buy it now, you won't see it again!" said one of the car buyers.
Zhou Jingming suddenly realized that with the special feelings of the people of Shencheng for the Shencheng car, the news that the car was discontinued stimulated many people to come to buy a car.
"Sister Wen, business is good. Zhou Jingming walked into the store and greeted Wen Zhuqing with a smile.
"Xiao Zhou, why are you here!" After seeing Zhou Jingming, Wen Zhuqing asked happily.
"I'm afraid that Sister Wen, your military spirit here is unstable, come over and appease me. ”
"You're talking about the discontinuation of the Shencheng car. Wen Zhuqing smiled, "I'm okay here, anyway, in the past few years, not only have I recovered the cost of investment, but also made a lot of money, even if I can't continue to sell cars next year, I can do other business." ”
Wen Zhuqing looked very open.
"Seeing Sister Wen think so, I am also relieved. Zhou Jingming paused, pointed to the few people who bought the car and said, "Business should be very good these days." ”
"It's really good. Wen Zhuqing nodded, "There are more cars sold in the past two days than in the whole month of last month." ”
Since there is no situation here in Wen Zhuqing, Zhou Jingming did not continue to stay, and after chatting a few words, he left the Qingcheng 4S store.
Gear factory, the research and development of manual automatic gearbox has made great progress, a few days ago Zhou Jingming designed the electronic control system has been sent there, and the main part of the gearbox, with the efforts of the entire project team, has been basically finalized, the next stage, it is ready to assemble the electronic control system to the main body of the gearbox, carry out relevant performance tests, it is estimated that by March this year, it will be able to complete all the design tasks.
The research progress of the entire gearbox project is much faster than Zhou Jingming expected.
Not only that, Xunming Gear Factory has also successfully entered the market of reducer transmission gears, and has successively obtained orders from SAIC Volkswagen and Nanqi Yuejin, and is currently negotiating with the Second Automobile, I believe that it will not be long before the Second Automobile can win the order of the Second Automobile.
Counting the branch factory on the second automobile side, now the profit of the gear factory alone can support all of Zhou Jingming's R&D funds.
However, compared with the research and development progress of the gearbox, the engine research and development progress that started earlier is relatively much slower, but it is still much faster than Zhou Jingming's expectations.
"Now that the electronic injection system of the QM4L1 has been developed and the air intake system is nearing completion, we are working hard to produce the cylinder block and timing gears, and we are expected to carry out ignition tests in May. However, the progress of the QM6L1 project will be a little slower, and the ignition test will be able to be carried out by the end of this year at the latest. ”
After coming to the engine factory, Zhou Jingming immediately found Luo Yuzhong, who was in the engine laboratory.
The engine laboratory of the engine plant was also built in October last year.
"The research and development of the six-cylinder engine is not in a hurry, now I can stop the research and development of the six-cylinder engine first, and devote all my energy to the research and development of the four-cylinder engine, preferably in May, to complete all the work, I am in a hurry to use this engine. Zhou Jingming replied.
"That's no problem, if all the scientific research is used on the four-cylinder engine, before May, it is guaranteed that a powerful engine will come out of the assembly line. Luo Yuzhong patted his chest and said.
If it weren't for the simultaneous development of four-cylinder and six-cylinder engines, then Luo Yuzhong and the others would probably be able to complete all the work next month.
"On the engine side, I'll bother you. I have other things to arrange next, and I may not have time to come back here. Zhou Jingming said while seriously thinking about the next plan.
"Ready to build your own car?" Luo Yuzhong asked in a low voice.
"Hmm. Zhou Jingming didn't have any concealment, and immediately nodded, "The body has already been done, and the frame and the rest of the parts are being customized by contacting the manufacturer, and now the gearbox and engine are not completely decided." ”
Zhou Jingming has been preparing for the matter of contacting the manufacturer to customize parts since November last year, and with his current influence, it is not difficult to find any domestic supplier for customization.
"But the key is that at this stage, the state is very strict in the control of the automobile field, and if you don't have a production license, even if you build a car, you can't mass produce it!" Luo Yuzhong said worriedly.
Zhou Jingming smiled, "This is nothing, since the state is unwilling to issue new production licenses, then we can buy the existing ones, and there is just a great opportunity right now!"
"You mean, you plan to buy the Shencheng brand car?!" Luo Yuzhong was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a shocked face.
