In the previous life, after Volkswagen acquired Bugatti and Lamborghini, it operated the two supercar brands as two independent sub-brands, and each brand had its own management team.

After the acquisition of Rolls-Royce, Zhou Jingming also operated it as an independent brand, retaining the original management class, but the management of Rolls-Royce was still subject to Tianming Luxury Car Co., Ltd.

As for this time, Zhou Jingming does not plan to equip Bugatti and Lamborghini with a special management team, but to unify them into a subsidiary, which is responsible for the management, which is the unestablished Supercar Co., Ltd.

Once the supercar company is established, the three supercar brands of Hongmeng, Bugatti and Lamborghini will all be under its management, and the Tianming team, which is responsible for various automobile events, will also be managed by the supercar company.

It's just that Zhou Jingming has not had time to build a supercar subsidiary, so he temporarily assigned Bugatti and Lamborghini to Chen Zhenyu's luxury car company management.

After the meeting, Zhou Jingming and others walked out of the conference room one after another, in order to ensure that the reception work can be carried out smoothly, Zhou Jingming did not forget to say a few more words.

"The technical handover of the third brother, Bugatti and Lamborghini is mainly in the powertrain, so in this regard, you must arrange it in time when you go back. ”

At this stage, the acquisition of enterprises, can technically supplement the Tianming Group, and only the powertrain and body design, Bugatti and Lamborghini, as the leaders in the supercar, have produced the fastest production car, and the powertrain system is the most worthy of Tianming Group's research.

As for the body design, it can be handed over to the Hongmeng project team for integration.

"I know this, how many times have I been responsible for this kind of thing, and I am already familiar with it. Wang Yuanchao said with a smile. Every technology exchange is almost entirely in charge of Wang Yuanchao.

"By the way, over there at the Engine Research Institute, how is the development of the W-type engine?" Zhou Jingming continued to ask.

In the research and development of multi-cylinder W-type engines, Volkswagen has always been in a leading position, but it has not been equipped on Volkswagen's vehicles for so many years, the first to appear is the W18 engine on the Bugatti Veyron, and later Volkswagen launched the self-developed luxury flagship model Phoseton, which also uses the W18 engine.

However, now that Bugatti has been acquired by Tianming Group, Zhou Jingming does not know when Volkswagen's W-type engine will be unveiled.

"It's been done according to your requirements, the 12-cylinder and 16-cylinder are being developed simultaneously, and everything is moving forward according to the schedule, and there are no technical obstacles. Wang Yuanchao replied.

At present, the core scientific research force of Tianming Group is all concentrated in the powertrain company, Zhou Jingming explained every work, Wang Yuanchao does not dare to slack off, every once in a while will personally inquire about the progress of each project, so that Zhou Jingming asks, he can also do the right answer.

"Good. Zhou Jingming nodded, "The follow-up engine research and development, I will not give you a limited idea, your engine research institute can develop various high-performance engines according to your own ideas, I will not pay attention to the process, you just need to give me the results." ”

In the previous research and development of various engines, Zhou Jingming provided the initial research and development ideas in advance, and then the engine research institute improved the details according to the preliminary technical plan, and finally got the finished product.

After so many years, the engine technology mastered by Zhou Jingming has basically been "cashed out", and the next step can only rely on the ability of the technicians themselves.

After a pause, Zhou Jingming looked at Zhao Ke on the side again, "Senior brother, you are responsible for the work arrangement of the Hongmeng project team, you ask them to make a list of missing technologies, and when the time comes, you will hand it over to Lao Chen, and let Lao Chen cooperate with the handover of the technical personnel of the Hongmeng project team, especially the designers in the body development, and give priority to the best to the Hongmeng project team." ”

Because of the difficulties encountered in the development of the body, the development of Hongmeng is actually in a stagnation stage, and Zhou Jingming has to pay more attention to this matter.

"What, do you have anything else to do?" Zhao Ke asked curiously. Hongmeng's development work has always been Zhou Jingming's role in controlling the overall situation, and today he actually arranged the work to himself, so Zhou Jingming must have other things to be busy with.

Zhou Jingming said "um", "Minister Li called me yesterday and asked me to go to Yanjing, I have to leave tomorrow, otherwise I wouldn't have held a meeting in a hurry today." ”

"It's the end of the year, and this time lets you go to Yanjing...... Could it be because of the Hongqi R50 car?" Zhao Ke said suspiciously.

"I guess it's probably related to this car, otherwise Minister Li wouldn't have let me go to Yanjing right now. Zhou Jingming replied.

There is only one year left until 1999, and the Hongqi R50 has been developed for more than three years, and it is time for the results, otherwise Lee Ming-che should be in a hurry.

"Okay, then you can go to Yanjing with peace of mind, and you don't have to worry about things here in Shencheng. Zhao Ke nodded.

The next morning, Zhou Jingming set off to Yanjing and met Li Mingzhe in the mechanical engineering department.

"I just called you over a few days after I came back from abroad, and I don't have any resentment in my heart, right?" After beckoning Zhou Jingming to sit down, Li Mingzhe said with a smile.

"Minister Li, what you said, how dare I have any grievances. Zhou Jingming replied with a wry smile.

Li Mingzhe finished reading the document in his hand, "Okay, I won't joke with you anymore, you should have guessed the reason why I asked you to come this time." ”

"Is it the R50 car?" Zhou Jingming immediately said.

"That's right. You take a look at this document first. As he spoke, Li Mingzhe handed a red-headed document to Zhou Jingming, "The comrades of the preparatory working group for the celebration of the 50th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China called me last week and asked me how the car for the leaders at the celebration was prepared. ”

Zhou Jingming took the document and looked at it, it was really about the R50 car, the previous National Day celebrations, the leader took the Hongqi car has almost become a fixed tradition, plus this time is the 50th anniversary celebration, no wonder the top and bottom are so concerned.

"The R50 has always been in charge of the FAW side, and our Tianming Group is only responsible for technical and design support, so I don't know how the car is progressing, but according to my experience, it should be almost over. Zhou Jingming replied after handing the document to Li Mingzhe.

With the 100% technical support of Rolls-Royce designers and Tianming Group, three years to develop a new car, Zhou Jingming felt that it was enough.

"Well, tomorrow morning, you go to Spring City with me to find out in detail how the development of this car is progressing, otherwise I will always be unsure. Li Mingzhe put away the documents, looked at Zhou Jingming and said.
