Chapter 82: Perverted Mission!
After the meeting was dismissed, Lin Feng took a number of subordinates to watch the sample of the van produced by Jiangqi.
From the current point of view, this prototype car is decent and there is nothing wrong with it.
But in Lin Feng's heart, this new van that is about to be put into production is like an antique.
"Boss Lin, we expect that the sales of this car in the first year can reach about 5,000 units, even if it is relatively successful. Wang Jianhua touched his own brainchild and said with infinite sighs.
He is glad that after Jiangqi has undergone a major overhaul, he can still participate in the follow-up work of this car.
"This style is not good, it is too outdated. I think it can be changed. Lin Feng walked around the sample car, trying to put forward his opinions as tactfully as possible.
Wang Jianhua didn't think so, but in the face of the boss's questioning, he still showed patience and asked, "Where do you need to change?"
"Have you seen the Toyota Overlord? Yes, the car that was launched last year, and I think if we could make it look like that, it would be pretty much the same. Lin Feng stood in front of the sample car with his hands behind his back, his expression was rich, as if he was facing a big bully.
"Overlord?" Wang Jianhua smiled bitterly, "That's more than 600,000 things, and our positioning is not even 60,000, how can we make such a car?"
Lin Feng said proudly: "Of course, we can't make it a big bully, but we can do it as an MPV, and make this car the first crossover between the micro and MPV in China, leading a new fashion." ”
This concept sounded too bold and advanced to Wang Jianhua and others at that time, and it was simply difficult to understand and accept.
"Boss, this vision is of course good, but to realize, I'm afraid it will be very difficult, if the cost is not well controlled, it will be difficult to sell. Wang Jianhua didn't want to refute the boss's face, so he turned around and proposed to build a new one.
Lin Feng said with a smile: "I also want to make something like the Great Overlord, but I can't make it now, it's just that I can learn from its appearance and copy it." ”
"Cottage?" Wang Jianhua looked dazed, thinking to himself that this Boss Lin, there are really a lot of fresh and famous halls, and he wants to come out of it!
Lin Feng said eloquently: "Yes, it is a copycat, the core of the van, the appearance of the MPV, of course, what we want to build is a new car that is different from the others, in terms of safety performance, power, appearance and many other elements, it must reach the domestic leading level!"
"What is the scope of the cost control?"
"The selling price must be controlled within 50,000 yuan! Our cars, for the buying group, are small business operators, businessmen in the early stage of the business, so the price must not be too high. ”
"Well, isn't this too difficult?"
"It's hard to be motivated!"
"Okay, you're the boss, let's do whatever you say. I'm afraid that if I create a four-way dissimilarity, the sales will not go up at that time, and I will be busy again. ”
"At the beginning, Grandpa Tai took the method of encircling the city from the countryside and seized the world. Today, we Jiangqi, in the case of strong competitors and backward technology, must also learn from Taizu back then, adopt the method of encircling the city from the countryside, and make achievements!"
"Boss Lin, do you mean that the main sales target of this product we produce is the rural market?
"Don't underestimate the peasants! They have money in their hands, and now, with the state's favorable policies, roads have been built to every household, and the roads in the rural areas have been paved, and the opportunity to get rich has come, and buying a car has become the choice of some people who have become rich first. ”
"Well, that sounds reasonable. Wang Jianhua still didn't believe Lin Feng very much, but with his cognitive level, he couldn't judge whether it was good or bad.
Since the big boss asked for it, just do it!
Wang Jianhua has already figured out Lin Feng's temper, this is a very strong boss, if you want to serve a good job safely, the wisest choice is to be obedient.
The manager of the R&D department is a balding middle-aged man named Yuan Nanyang, a native of the Central Plains, graduated from Northeast Polytechnical University, and he was in charge of R&D at the beginning of the establishment of Jiangqi, and was one of the veterans of Jiangqi.
Lin Feng acquired and reorganized, carried out a heavy personnel reform, and the heads of all important departments were basically replaced, but Yuan Nanyang was not replaced, and he sat firmly in the position of manager of the R&D department.
"Manager Yuan," Lin Feng nodded, "I'll give you a month to develop a new car." ”
"A month?" Yuan Nanyang grabbed the back of his hand, "Boss, is it too tight?"
"I agree unconditionally to whatever support you need. But I'll only give you a month, and I'll see the prototype by the end of October at the latest. Lin Feng said in an irrefutable tone.
"Uh," Yuan Nanyang once again appreciated the boss's strength, "Okay, I'll do my best." ”
Wang Jianhua muttered: "Boss, if it is just a change in appearance, it is still a simple matter, and I am now worried that the biggest question is, what kind of engine will we use, what kind of chassis and suspension system, in order to meet the needs of the new car? This is a difficult problem that needs to be overcome urgently." ”
Lin Feng was prepared and said: "Don't think about engine technology, we can only find other manufacturers to cooperate." As for the chassis and suspension system, Jiangqi's current technology, within a month, I am afraid that it will not reach the height I want. ”
Wang Jianhua smiled bitterly: "So, all of these three major pieces have to be cooperated with outside companies?"
Lin Feng said: "Not bad. Well, let's do it, contact the suppliers of the three major parts, and I'll run it myself. Mr. Wang, in the next month, Jiangqi Company will be in charge of you, supervising the R&D department to speed up the progress, and at the same time adjust the production workshop and supporting equipment to prepare for the production of new cars. ”
Wang Jianhua thought to himself, this boss is so reliable, he is so sure that within a month, he can find a supplier of three major pieces?
If you can't find it in a short time, won't the R&D and production preparations in the factory be in vain?
Next, Lin Feng and his colleagues in the R&D department discussed that they would disperse at more than ten o'clock in the evening.
In the final analysis, Lin Feng's understanding of automobiles is superficial, and what he knows is only a general direction of development, but when it comes to specific technical aspects, he can only rely on Yuan Nanyang and others to solve it.
Yuan Nanyang is a technical maniac, and his life's hobby is to study machinery.
The problem raised by Lin Feng made Yuan Nanyang have a strong curiosity, and he wanted to know, if it really followed this idea, what would the car look like?
"I would like to make a few requests, first, the cost of a new car must be controlled. Second, the new car must meet the standards set out in the National Safety Collision Act. Fourth, the space should be large, it can carry people and goods, and it is a multi-functional dual-purpose vehicle. Every time Lin Feng said something, he raised a finger.
Yuan Nanyang's whole person was stunned, Nima's, can such a perverted task be completed?
