Chapter 206: ATV Project Launched

Jiang Chen's choice of ATV (all-terrain vehicle) was also well prepared. It can be said that their current development has entered a bottleneck period. Of course, if Jiang Chen develops the motorcycle factory step by step, there will naturally be no problem. But Jiang Chen didn't want that, if he wanted further development, he had to find another way. Now that the domestic market has basically been occupied, if Jiang Chen is squeezing, then other peers or a group of people with connections will jump out to find Jiang Chen and their trouble. Jiang Chen was also reluctant to touch it like this, after all, they were all domestic factories, and Jiang Chen didn't want to suppress them too much because of his golden finger.

And this ATV (all-terrain vehicle) has a relatively simple structure, and the technology is what Jiang Chen can deal with at present, and it is still on this preemptive momentum. So Jiang Chen chose it as Jiang Chen's next development direction.

What really made Jiang Chen make up his mind was the good news from the engine R&D laboratory, that is, the two-cylinder engine they developed finally came to fruition. Coupled with the 300 single-cylinder engine they pushed out before, Jiang Chen had enough capital to develop this. After the development of the 300 engine, there were actually two voices in the factory. One is the mainstream, that is, I hope that the factory can develop a new span (partial three-wheeled motorcycle), maybe everyone is too familiar with this, so after having such a large displacement engine, they want to see if they can also produce their own span. This proposal was directly vetoed by Jiang Chen, although there is now a need for a relatively large displacement span on the market, but this is still not technically difficult, and it is very easy to be imitated or copycated. And at this time, Jiang Chen had already thought of developing an ATV (all-terrain vehicle), so he vetoed this proposal.

The other is to continue to develop motorcycles and develop their own high-power motorcycles. In fact, Jiang Chen was still hesitant about this. Because he didn't know if there was a market for such a large-displacement motorcycle. As mentioned earlier, at this time, the reform and opening up had just begun, so there were very few rich people. The motorcycles produced by Jiang Chen in front of them are only taking the people-friendly route, so the price is very low. If this kind of motorcycle is produced, then the price is bound to be high. Large displacement engines, this one is much more expensive than those 125, 200, 250 engines. And in order to accommodate an engine with such a large displacement. Therefore, the entire body has to be designed and manufactured from the new to adapt to such super power, so its price will increase a lot. Another one is such a large displacement, then its fuel consumption will also be amazing, which is not affordable for families at this time.

Of course, Jiang Chen does not want to give up this high-end market, and its high price means that its profits will also be very high. Jiang Chen doesn't want to produce this kind of low-end products all the time, only by truly occupying the high-end market can Jiang Chen's brand really gain a firm foothold in the entire motorcycle field. However, Jiang Chen did not want to continue to produce traditional motorcycles step by step, because there was really no profit to be made. Since you want to occupy the high-end market. So let's take it one step at a time. So Jiang Chen proposed two research and development directions, the first is to open up a larger displacement of off-road motorcycles, with stronger power to conquer those more rugged roads. The second one is the development of motorcycles, which are called road racing motorcycles to be precise. This is also the direction of the world's motorcycle manufacturers. In fact, Jiang Chen has no confidence in this aspect, because there are many strong players in the world in this aspect, not to mention anything else, let's just say that several major motorcycle brands in Fusang can give Jiang Chen a headache. There is also the maiden home of the pioneer factory, the Deutsche Carriage Company. are all representatives of this aspect, so there is still a certain risk in competing with them. But then again. It is not certain who will kill the deer, especially with Jiang Chen here, he doesn't believe that his advanced knowledge is not as good as theirs.

Now that it's settled, let's get started. One of the advantages of doing things in a service company is that you don't have to keep meeting and researching for one thing. Study. Although Jiang Chen has said many times about the habit of B17 factory, it is still the same, and Jiang Chen is too lazy to say it over time. got rid of the shackles of the system on Jiang Chen, so the efficiency of the service company is much faster. Soon after this was arranged, it was soon implemented.

The first is a joint research and development project team composed of multiple departments. This multi-departmental. It's not a functional department in a factory, but multiple research labs or production units. For example, the tire production workshop (in fact, it is an independent workshop, this workshop is dedicated to the production of tires. However, there is no special laboratory, so they can only let their production units participate. It is mainly responsible for the development of tires for ATVs (all-terrain vehicles). As we all know, the reason why ATV (all-terrain vehicle) can adapt to different terrains is not only related to its body design and power, but also has a great relationship with its special tires. Engine R&D laboratory, materials laboratory, electronic device R&D laboratory, and some related personnel, such as body designers, structural designers, etc. Of course, as the organizer and proposer of this project, Jiang Chen naturally became the leader of the hospital and the entire project team. However, considering Jiang Chen's work, Jiang Chen could not devote himself to R&D work, so he, the team leader, only played a role in guiding (guiding) and coordinating the work. Of course, there is also logistics support, which is also the reason why many research project teams are willing to let Jiang Chen join in, even if it is a name. Because he is the general manager of the service company, the director of the pioneer factory, and the leader of the B17 factory, it is easier for him to do some things, such as approving funds, handling affairs, recruiting people, and so on.

In order not to arouse the ideas of other factories, in fact, this time the focus is on some joint venture factories. These factories all have national partners, and some of them are some giants, if they know, then with their huge research team, strong capital investment, and rich technology accumulation, I am afraid that Jiang Chen will not have any share at that time. Especially our country's neighbor, Fuso, is a notoriously shameless rogue state. Judging from the information that Jiang Chen knew in later generations, they came to invest in our country under the banner of friendship between the two countries in the 80s. It is said to be an investment, but in fact, it is to spy on information and dig up our own "family foundation". Many factories and enterprises in line with the principle of coming to be a guest will let people visit the home inside and out, but they don't know that people have stolen your home with bad intentions, for which we have suffered a lot of losses. (To be continued......)

PS: It's been more than two hundred chapters, and it's really hard. I also ushered in my second bottleneck, which led to a decline in the quality of the recent chapters. I apologize to all of you and ask me to give me a few days to get through this hurdle. If you have any comments, suggestions or information, you can also use them in the book review area or group, or chat with me directly, as long as it is useful and helpful to me, I will adopt it and express my gratitude.
