004: The direction in which the car is built
As for the few people of the 'academic school' that Huzi said in his mouth, Zhao Tian didn't have to think about it to know that it must be a few people brought by Wei Jianping at the beginning.
Regarding Wei Jianping's qualifications, when he first came, Zhao Tian already knew that returnees with high academic qualifications had experience in teaching and project development.
It's just that he has a relationship with several members of the team, as well as teachers and students, which Zhao Tian didn't expect.
In any case, now that the problem exists, what needs to be solved is still to be solved.
Subsequently, Zhao Tian called Fu Chunlei, Li Qi, Wang Liang, Zi Peng, and Liu Chuanlai to the office.
These five people are the technicians who arrived with Wei Jianping and Lu Xiangfei at the beginning.
After a few people arrived at the office, Zhao Tian smiled and gave up his seat, and everyone sat down.
Judging from their age, these five people are about to be in their early thirties, and they all have the unique stubborn temperament of scientific researchers, and when they see Zhao Tian, they are not too restrained.
Seeing the people seated, Zhao Tian glanced at a few people with a smile in his eyes and asked, "Everyone has been doing a good job recently, right?"
Wang Liang sat close to Zhao Tian and responded with a smile: "It's all good, thank you Zhao Dong for your concern." ”
The other four nodded in agreement.
"Is there anything you are not satisfied with the hardware configuration of our company at this stage?" Zhao Tian asked in detail.
"It's all good. This time, several people looked at each other, and they all nodded in agreement.
Zhao Tian saw that a few people's answers were too official, and he was afraid that he would continue to ask in this way, which was tantamount to leading the inspection work, and all he got was 'good', 'very good', and 'very good' answers, so everyone handed over a cigarette, and skipped it if he didn't smoke, and when the office fell into a state of smoke, Zhao Tiandao: "Actually, I call you over today, and there is nothing else to do, first of all, after all, our company has experienced a small turmoil, and you continue to choose to share weal and woe with our company, which I am very grateful." ”
"In addition, in the development process of the new company, there will inevitably be some immaturity or negligence, and everyone here is a leader in our industry in terms of qualifications and strength. If there are any problems in our company at this stage, you must give more opinions, whether it is for the future development of the company, or even the environment in which we stay, it is good, don't you say?"
Zhao Tian spread his hands and had a modest smile on his face.
Seeing that Zhao Tian's posture was so low, Li Qi answered: "Zhao Dong, if you want to talk about the problem, it does exist now..."
Wang Liang, who was sitting on the side, hurriedly smashed Li Qi's arm and signaled him to shut up.
Seeing this, Zhao Tian waved his hand and stopped Wang Liang with a smile, "It's okay, let's brainstorm, if there is a problem, we have to raise it, in ancient times, there was a saying of 'not blaming the ministers', besides, what about us now, Li Gong, what do you say!"
"That's right, look at the person Zhao Dong!" Li Qi glanced at Wang Liang and continued: "Zhao Dong, you see that in our technical team, it's okay to throw a few little kids who don't know anything into it, what's going on?"
Fu Chunlei on the side echoed: "Yes, yes, the key is that I don't know anything, and I love to express an opinion or suggestion, you said that after graduating from 'Dongli', our group of people has been engaged in the automotive industry, and everything they have learned and heard is something in the industry. ”
Wang Liang saw that the chatterbox of these two people was open, and he couldn't stop anything, so he folded his arms in front of his chest and frowned tightly.
"It's okay, go on. Zhao Tianpi said with a smile.
Li Qi said: "Actually, those people don't matter, the most important thing now is that the design drawings of the car models you got last time do not meet the standards of our car manufacturing in many places, Zhao Dong, your model design drawings are not bought from anyone, will they be used..."
Zhao Tian finally heard a little taste, and until now, they all thought that they had bought both the engine and the model design drawings.
Zhao Tian smiled awkwardly, raised his hand and said, "You continue." ”
Li Qi said: "Zhao Dong, you see, as far as our current Chinese automobile market is concerned, the current mass base is the broadest must be Volkswagen, with our current company situation, it is best to start by imitating them, and wait for ten or eight years, after having a certain foundation, and then consider a new model." Besides, our domestic cars are now to put it bluntly, they are basically imitating, and if you don't imitate, you can't mix in the market. Besides, if we build a car that looks similar to theirs, but it can't stand our low price, then we will make enough money first, and we can't do what we want!"
"The worst, even if we don't make cars, we have the money to do other things, do you say it's Zhao Dong?"
Zhao Tian felt an MMP in his heart.
This is purely a mentality of imitating and making quick money.
Zhao Tian was noncommittal, and asked rhetorically: "Can't you completely rely on independent research and development and set your own direction?"
Fu Chunlei waved his hand again and again: "Zhao Dong, you take independent research and development too lightly, it requires a huge investment of money and manpower, and with our past experience, it is not a problem to imitate any model, why use those difficult ways!"
Zhao Tian was a little upset when he heard this, maybe these people were holding this mentality of 'sacrificing the distance and seeking the near' when they strongly opposed the new model they designed.
Subsequently, he let the men out of the office and did not say much.
As for the problem that Huzi said, it does exist in the technical team.
But now because there is no contradiction to break out, that is, there is no entry point, Zhao Tian decided to put this problem aside for a while.
And the problem of this technician's attitude towards building cars was an unexpected discovery, but it made him upset.
After all, from the very beginning, Zhao Tian didn't seem to have stipulated anything to follow the company's self-developed company's theme strategy plan or anything.
It seems that it is time to issue a strategic direction for the Cosmos Corporation.
Zhao Tian has been dealing with the affairs of the electric company for a while ago, but he has not paid much attention to the automobile business, which has also caused the reason why all the hardware conditions are ready now, and the car manufacturing business has not been on track for a long time.
Immediately, Zhao Tian, who had a little clue, called Wei Jianping and Lu Xiangfei over.
Seeing the arrival of the two, Zhao Tian directly stepped into the topic and asked, "What do you think about the direction of our company's future car manufacturing?"
Lu Xiangfei looked at Wei Jianping with straight eyes, only to see him scratch his head and say, "This, this... Well, why don't we all discuss it together?"
Zhao Tian knew in his heart, and his eyes turned to Lu Xiangfei, "What about you?"
Lu Xiangfei straightened his body and said in a deep voice: "According to our previous experience and technical level, as well as the results of current market research and analysis..."
Zhao Tian said impatiently: "Talk about the point!"
Lu Xiangfei paused, and then said: "A-class cars and B-class cars, A-class is auxiliary, and B-class is the mainstay. ”
He was referring to the size standard of the car, which is the compact model and the mid-range model.
Zhao Tian nodded, it is better to have a direction than no direction.
In particular, if the leader of a department has to strive for everyone's opinions on everything, and he does not have a forward-looking vision or a firm direction, it will be difficult to achieve results.
Zhao Tiandao: "Specifically, is there any outstanding or unique place to attract market consumers?"
"Well," Lu Xiangfei hesitated for a while, "I haven't thought about this yet." ”
Zhao Tian really had a headache this time.
It seems that Wei Jianping did not close down HS Company for no reason.
Fortunately, although Lu Xiangfei has nothing outstanding, he has a serious attitude.
Immediately, I saw Zhao Tian wave his hand and rush to Lu Xiangfei and said: "From today on, I will appoint you as the director of the power department, temporarily responsible for all the technical affairs of the Universe Company, and Lao Wei, you will be fully responsible for the affairs of the production department from now on!"
Lu Xiangfei sat corrected, and Wei Jianping was also relieved.
Zhao Tian then asked Qingqing to go to the personnel department to convey the new appointment.
Zhao Tian continued: "Regarding the direction of our company's future car manufacturing, it will be decided today. In addition, safety is the top priority, and it is also the foundation and characteristic of our Cosmos company based on the automotive industry in the future. ”
"At the same time, in the research and development of models, I also set the tone of our company: independent research and development. ”
"Lu Xiangfei, you have to convey these to your team when you go back. In addition, there are some discordant voices in the technical team now, I hope Lao Lu can rectify it well, I am still optimistic about you. ”
Lu Xiangfei's expression was solemn, but Wei Jianping, who was sitting on the side, was a little gray.
