"I'll tell you something," the meeting ended, and Yuan Qingli walked to the table in the corner of the canteen with a plate of three dishes and one soup.

Yang Quan put down the dinner plate and handed an apple to Yuan Qingli, and his free hands immediately became active, pulled out the stool hidden under the table, and used his sleeve to wipe off the non-existent dust.

Good company canteen with fruit for lunch.

"What's the matter?"

After the lunch break bell rings, the canteen is bustling, and employees are waiting in line in an orderly manner with plates or magnetic cylinders. There are only three canteen windows, two of which are responsible for fixing the set meal rice and two vegetarian and two halves of meat and two large meats. The other one is in charge of the noodles, sometimes noodles, sometimes dumplings, Yang Quan remembers that the last time he ate the Ao stove noodles were very authentic.

Employees choose to line up according to their own tastes, and there is no distinction between leaders and employees, and everyone queues up normally. It's just that the leader sometimes comes five minutes early, staggering the queue peak.

"Today's braised pork is delicious," Yuan Qingli picked up the greasy and fatty braised pork with chopsticks and feasted on it, not caring about the topic just said.

Yang Quan took a sip of tofu soup to moisten his thirsty lips, and also picked up the baby's palm-sized pork belly, and took a bite of the soup and fried it in his mouth. The rich sweetness bursts out in an instant and fills the taste buds of the tongue, and the fat but not greasy taste makes people look forward to the taste of the next bite.

"It's really delicious. This soup is poured over the rice, and it tastes very good. ”

"If you want to say that this braised pork is still delicious in southern Jiangsu near Shanghai. However, the cut pork belly is too fat and small, and if it is larger, it will be full enough to eat in one bite. The kind of cut into small pieces, the little family is too angry, and they can't even enjoy eating. Yuan Qingli commented that he didn't forget to pull the rice, his family only began to have meat on the table this year, and he has a soft spot for large pieces of fatty meat.

"There is a saying how to describe it? Braised pork should have thin skin and tender meat, red and bright color, mellow and juicy, crispy and not broken, fragrant and glutinous but not greasy. Such a state is called perfection. I haven't eaten the braised pork in Shanghai yet, so I must go over and taste it when I have time. Yang Quan also doesn't remember whether he had eaten it in his previous life, and he forgot how to do it there. But it's certain that I've never eaten it in my life.

"By the way, speaking of Shanghai, a few of my old friends wrote to me and said something. Yuan Qingli finally remembered the topic he was about to talk about just now.

"What's the matter?"

"The old leaders of Hucheng Motorcycle Factory called me over, they planned to produce Happy 125 motorcycles last year, and now they are ready to do a big job. I somehow remembered me, and saw that I was still in the industry, so I wrote to call me again. ”

"Happiness 125 type?" Yang Quan searched for this car in his mind in confusion, as if he had not heard of it, only remembered the happiness 250 type.

Yuan Qingli knew that he didn't know much when he saw Yang Quan's puzzled look, and hurriedly explained: "Hucheng Motorcycle Factory and Yichu Investment Company, a subsidiary of Thailand's CP Group, each invested 50% to establish the first Sino-foreign joint venture motorcycle manufacturer in China - Hucheng Yichu Motorcycle. ”

Hearing this, Yang Quan immediately thought of Yichu in the north, and then he seemed to think of Yichu in Shanghai. In fact, if you seriously calculate it, these two should be members of the same Thai CP Group, and happiness should be Hucheng Yichu.

Before the rebirth, it seems that someone has simply commented on Hucheng Yichu, that is, ten years ago, everyone praised it, and ten years later, there is no trace.

"Happiness 125 is their new product?" Yang Quan asked.

"Yes, they imported CG125 manufacturing technology from Honda, and they have been working on this project for the past two years. Last year, they trial-built 100 Happy XF125s, and this year they are going to do a big job. Yuan Qingli explained the history that Yang Quan didn't know, and the long history was added to Yang Quan's memories to finally complete this story.

On January 1, 1985, Hucheng Motorcycle Factory and Yichu Investment Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Thailand's CP Group, invested 50% each, and established the first Sino-foreign joint venture motorcycle manufacturer in China - Hucheng Yichu Motorcycle Co., Ltd. On January 1, 1986, Hucheng Power Engine Factory joined the company by way of capital increase, and finally formed a motorcycle factory and an engine factory with 2,000 people.

At the beginning of the joint venture, the main focus was on the production of Happiness 250, and there were no other main products. In order to solve the technical problems, in 86 years the Chinese and foreign sides decided to invest in the introduction of Honda (including CG110, CG125 and CG145, etc.) KE2 motorcycle manufacturing technology with the international advanced level in the early 80s of the 20th century.

Relying on the financial advantages brought by the joint venture, it has introduced advanced testing instruments and equipment from Japan, Germany, Italy, France, Switzerland, Britain, Austria and other countries, and built dozens of production lines such as final assembly, painting, welding, stamping, engine assembly, commissioning and parts processing.

(Yang Quan couldn't figure it out at all, what is this for? What is it to compare momentum or what?Is it awesome to find so many countries?)

In April 86, SH Yichu held a meeting with the parts supporting factory of Happiness 125, and later successfully trial-produced the first batch of 100 XF125 models in May 1987.

Because the Happiness XF125 motorcycle adopts a more reasonable structure in addition to the connection between the fuel tank, seat cushion and frame, the rest are all manufactured in accordance with the KE2 technology and standards of Honda's CG125 series, therefore, it has been welcomed by motorcycle enthusiasts as soon as it came out.

In order to ensure the quality of the happy XF125 motorcycle, and as soon as possible on the batch of motorcycles, Hucheng Yichu in the introduction of technology at the same time, the establishment of a localization leading group, together with the parts manufacturer, in strict accordance with Honda standards and KE2 drawings for each part of the research one by one, after boasting that the parts self-made rate of more than 50%, the domestic production rate of 75%, quality and performance and Honda's independent production equal.

And this time Yuan Qingli said that the old club came back to him for localization, after all, Yuan Qingli's hard work on Happiness 250 back then, the leaders saw it.

But to be honest, Yang Quan is familiar with the follow-up development story and is not optimistic about this matter. Hucheng Yichu was silent after that, and Honda's main partners later did not have this company.

Honda's cooperation with Chinese companies can be said to have started in 82 years with Honda, Jialing and Honda launched technical cooperation, and in 1984 signed an "equipment supply contract" for the introduction of a 125cc motorcycle engine production line, and introduced 77 sets of key equipment, with a contract value of 3 billion yen.

Later, Honda's main partners in China were the familiar Wuyang-Honda and the new continent Honda. Among them, Wuyang-Honda has a relatively long history, and the two sides have been cooperating since 1992, and the predecessor of New Continent Honda is TJ Honda.

As for the technical cooperation with Hucheng Yichu motorcycle, the time was relatively short, and it stopped in the early 90s.

"What do you think?" Yang Quan knew about this cooperation history, but no one believed it when he said it now, he just wanted to hear Yuan Qingli's own opinion.

"I can tell you this, I just don't care. Now I am very happy here, I can realize my self-worth in Yangfan Factory, it is the opportunity you give me. In other words, even if I went to Shanghai, they treated me as a screw, a screw to realize the localization of a precision engine. And I'm here, and I can stand on a higher level to achieve this. Yuan Qingli put down his chopsticks and said seriously. "It is undeniable that a big part of this is the space you give me and the stage you give me. You are only the host and I am the dancer on this stage. ”

Yang Quan still has too little experience to deal with this kind of level, and the relationship between the upper and lower levels is a little tender, or he is a little overwhelmed when he hears that his left and right arms are being dug up. Thinking about it carefully, from the perspective of wages, Yuan Qingli's personal salary is not something that state-owned enterprises or joint ventures can give.

In addition, now Yuan Qingli is the director of the research institute, and Yang Quan is the number one here. Yuan Qingli believes that if Yangfan Factory begins to develop into a motorcycle factory, he will have hope if he competes for the director of the factory.

"I'm telling you this, but I want you to pay attention to this company and their products. Their main product, the XF125, is in the same vein as our Freelance, and we can borrow their supplier resources and products to refer to their pricing. Yuan Qingli explained.

Yang Quan suddenly came to his senses, and immediately grasped the problem point in his mind, "They are OEMs, mainly making motorcycles and directly facing the market. We are an engine factory, although there is no direct formation of face-to-face competition. But it will also affect the price of our engine, after all, our unit price positioning will affect the unit price of the customer's final product. Yes, they will tear directly face to face.

In addition, they occupy Shanghai, and their products radiate to the Yangtze River Delta region, which actually has a direct impact on us. ”

"Yangtze River Delta region?" Yuan Qingli grabbed a key word and repeated in a daze.

"Yes, the Yangtze River Delta economic region, radiating from Shanghai to this region, is one. Yang Quan used chopsticks to draw an area on the table, and read several provinces and cities involved.

"Isn't this the Shanghai-Chengdu Economic Zone? I just remember that someone proposed economic cooperation in the Yangtze River basin, or economic cooperation between the Greater Shanghai Cities. Last year or the year before last, wasn't it decided to call it the Shanghai Economic Zone? Why has it been changed to the Yangtze River Delta region now?"

Yuan Qingli suddenly understood what Yang Quan meant by the Yangtze River Delta, and immediately refuted it after understanding. At this time, Yang Quancai was embarrassed and stunned, because he had always called this area the Yangtze River Delta, and he also knew that this was an economic area corresponding to the Pearl River Delta, but he never paid attention to when he proposed this concept.

Yang Quan hurriedly changed the topic, "By the way, when did your son get married?" Last time, that Asada said that he would help me bring some imported goods, do you want it?"
