Since the positioning of the new car is a B-class car, then Zhou Jingming has a lot of things to face next, the domestic automobile market is still good, in the same level of cars, only Santana is such a one, but the foreign market, especially the European market where the Phoenix brand sedan has just landed, the competition is much fiercer, Volkswagen, BMW, Mercedes-Benz these car companies, which company does not have one or even several B-class cars in charge?

If you want to break out of the encirclement in these old car companies, it is definitely not enough to rely on the shape of the car, and Zhou Jingming also needs to make a reasonable match in the hard indicators and configuration of the car.

However, the development of a car is in a hurry, and Zhou Jingming still has a long time to build this B-class car that has not yet come out.

At the same time, the next day, Zhou Jingming announced at the company's meeting the expansion of the production scale of the vehicle factory and the development of new cars, and at the meeting they had an in-depth discussion on the preliminary plan drawn up by Zhao Ke, and finally the expansion of the production scale was preliminarily decided.

Compared with the development of new cars, expanding the production scale of automakers is undoubtedly the most urgent thing for Tianming Automobile Company at present.

After arranging the expansion of the factory's production scale, Zhou Jingming took the time to go to Runzhou Institute of Technology, and there were a few things that needed to be discussed with Su Wangting.

"Are you saying that you want to recruit graduates from Runzhou Institute of Technology to work in your company?" Su Wangting, who was sitting at the desk, couldn't help frowning after listening to Zhou Jingming's words.

Although the state does not explicitly stipulate that fresh graduates must work in state-owned factories, since the resumption of the college entrance examination system, there has never been a precedent for any university to allow college students to work in private enterprises, so Su Wangting is not sure whether this will work.

"That's right. Zhou Jingming nodded, "If Tianming Automobile Company wants to continue to expand its scale, it will definitely not work without its own talent reserve, and I can't do everything by myself." So I plan to ask my senior brother to go to the school to do a school recruitment in May next year, and I will consult Teacher Su for your opinion first. ”

Su Wangting lowered his head and thought seriously for a while, before he replied, "There is still a period of time before you mentioned the recruitment, so let's go to the principal to talk about this matter and do ideological work for him, as long as the principal agrees, then there is no problem with this matter." ”

"Then I'll thank Mr. Su in advance. Zhou Jingming hurriedly said, with Su Wangting coming forward, the probability of success in the school recruitment will increase a lot.

"Isn't it said that there are two things, and there is another thing, let's hear about it. ”

"Also, I want to develop another new car, and I want to ask Mr. Su to join this project. Zhou Jingming immediately replied.

"Another new car to be developed?" Su Wangting stood up with a surprised expression, "How long has the Phoenix brand sedan been released!"

Zhou Jingming smiled, "You can't rely on a Phoenix brand car to eat the old book, besides, next year, I plan to enter the American market, the whole company only has one car, so how can it work." ”

"What you said is also reasonable, if you want to gain a firm foothold in the European and American markets, you have to come up with a car with a certain influence, this point, Toyota in the island country has done a very good job, I think you can learn from them, it is still very valuable. Su Wangting nodded, agreeing with Zhou Jingming's point of view.

"Island country!" Su Wangting said this, Zhou Jingming seemed to remember something at once, a few years ago at the technical exchange meeting held by the Society of Automotive Engineers of China, he seemed to have a verbal agreement with Mazda's representative Koizumi Ichiro on the technical exchange of rotary engines!

Wouldn't it be a good choice to use a rotary engine on this newly developed car?

"What's wrong, is what I said very wrong?" Seeing that Zhou Jingming's face changed, Su Wangting asked curiously.

"Mr. Su, you said that if the newly developed car is equipped with Mazda's rotary engine, what do you think of such an engine configuration?" Zhou Jingming hurriedly asked.

"Rotary engine?" Su Wangting was stunned for a moment, and then replied, "There are not many domestic studies on rotary engines, and I don't know much about this engine, but Mazda can rely on this technology to be famous throughout Asia, and there must be a certain reason." ”

"However, this technology is not unique to Mazda, and it is possible that you want to buy the right to use this technology from Mazda, and the cost of this is not a small amount!"

At that time, Mazda bought the prototype of the rotary engine technology from Europe was still astronomical, after so many years of development of Mazda, this technology has gradually matured, if you want to buy this technology at this time, the price will only be higher.

Zhou Jingming shook his head with a smile, and then told Su Wangting about the things encountered at the technical exchange meeting, "At present, the in-cylinder direct injection technology has been verified, and our Qiming Engine Factory is also developing our own in-cylinder direct injection engine, which will not be in mass production in a short time, and if you go to exchange technology with Mazda, it should not be a big problem." ”

"Then you underestimate the shrewdness of the island people, think about it yourself, can a technology of direct injection in the cylinder be exchanged for the other party's rotary engine technology?" Su Wangting smiled, "If it were you, would you be willing to exchange with the other party?"

As soon as Su Wangting said this, Zhou Jingming couldn't help but fall into contemplation, to put it bluntly, direct injection in the cylinder is only the technology of the engine injection system, while the rotary engine involves the entire engine system.

"Then I don't have to directly exchange the rotary engine that Mazda has developed, I only need the right to use this technology, as long as I get the right to use this technology, we can also develop a new rotary engine ourselves, in this way, will it be much simpler?"

"You can talk to Mazda about it, but even if you say, one in-cylinder direct injection technology is not enough to exchange for the other party's rotary engine technology. Su Wangting still felt that it was not that simple.

"It's okay, as long as Mazda is willing to talk to me, I can always offer a price that satisfies him. Zhou Jingming didn't care, and between his words, he was also full of confidence.

There is no business in the world that cannot be discussed!

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Jingming chatted with Su Wangting for a while about the development of the new car, and Su Wangting also agreed to join the project team to help Zhou Jingming jointly complete the new car development project.

After finishing the matter here, Zhou Jingming took the car back to Shencheng that night, and since he had made up his mind to install a rotary engine on the next car, he had to go all out to complete the negotiations with Mazda Motor Company.
