Chapter 1026 - Hit It Off
FAW Group is a vice-ministerial-level unit under the supervision of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. However www.biquge.info the deputy head of the ministry refers to the chairman of the board of directors, who is directly appointed by the state, not the general manager in charge of the company's operations. As for the general manager, there is generally no administrative level, but the position within D is equivalent to a department-level cadre, and it is also a department-level person who holds real power.
In other words, the main ministry and the deputy ministry sitting opposite Jiang Chen at the moment are all high-ranking officials of the republic.
Jiang Chen has always wanted to be optimistic about the cake of the Huaguo market, and Huaguo happens to have an urgent need for the introduction of maglev vehicles, and the two sides hit it off. The patents related to the magnetic levitation technology of Rourka Automobile Company are in the hands of Future People's Heavy Industries, and Future People Heavy Industries uses these patents to set up a joint venture with FAW Group.
The reason why the joint venture factory is mainly for tax reduction and at the same time can also obtain some preferential policies. In any case, maglev vehicles produced in China will only be sold in China, so there is no market share in other Asian markets.
And most importantly, setting up a factory in a joint venture with a state-owned enterprise can reduce the trouble that may be caused by eating alone. encountered some small problems that Jiang Chen didn't bother to worry about at all.
In addition, while setting up a joint venture with FAW for production, Rourka and other automobile companies will not stop developing the Chinese market, but the focus of development is on the high-end market.
The supporting maglev highway will be funded by the Ministry of Communications, and the future people will provide technology and equipment for the construction of Huaguo Road Construction Company.
The first phase of the project will take Wanghai City as a pilot, and first carry out the reconstruction of maglev roads in some urban areas of Wanghai City. If the effect is good, it will be promoted in the first-tier cities across the country, and then gradually cover the major highways, and then promote to the second- and third-tier cities.
After negotiating with Minister Zhou about the supporting highways, Jiang Chen suddenly had a thought and said with a smile.
"In this way, since we will build the maglev highway, and we will also provide the maglev technology, it just so happens that these maglev cars are pure electric vehicles, you simply give us the charging piles of pure electric vehicles, so as to avoid compatibility problems."
The question of compatibility is actually completely Jiang Chen's nonsense.
Transwarp Trading's wireless charging technology is very high-end, but only in Singapore has completely popularized wireless charging piles, and most of the charging piles supporting gas stations in other countries are still wired. However, in these countries, you can still see Rourka cars without charging interfaces, and those car owners are also driving well, not saying that they are worried about not being able to find a charging pile all day long.
The secret lies in the fact that the Rourka pure electric vehicles sold overseas will be equipped with a laptop-sized wired to wireless device, which will be connected to the charging line of the wired charging pile when charging, as long as the car is parked within ten meters, so there is no compatibility problem at all.
Minister Zhou obviously didn't understand the doorway, and nodded thoughtfully. It's just that when he made a decision, his expression was a little difficult.
"This ...... It seems that it is not within the scope of the management of our transportation bureau, and the management of gas stations is more complicated, and some of the gas stations on the highway are operated by three barrels of oil, and some are operated by local enterprises or even self-employed individuals. But I'll help you to reflect your comments to the top, as for how to implement them......"
"Don't be so troublesome," Jiang Chen smiled and waved his hand, and then said, "We can't stick to the rules, the charging pile doesn't need to be connected to a big oil tank, there is no need to build it in a gas station, I think the highway service area is good." If you want to, put four or five charging piles in the parking lot of the service area, and the owner will park the car there, and the time to soak a bowl of noodles will be almost half of it. It is convenient for the people, and it increases the passenger flow for the highway service area, isn't this the best of both worlds? ”
Minister Zhou's eyes lit up, and as soon as he heard what Jiang Chen said, he immediately understood the benefits.
Although the gas station is not in the management of the Ministry of Transportation, the highway service area is operated by the local Ministry of Transportation, and part of the income generated by the service area is the profit of the operating company, and the other part is the financial revenue! And this income must be at least tens of billions of dollars per year!
Not only has political achievements, but also visible benefits, such a big piece of cake is in front of him, and Minister Zhou suddenly couldn't sit still.
"I'll go back and look into it, this should be fine!"
Since the Minister of Transportation has said that there is no problem, the matter has basically come down.
Soon, the secretary had printed out a copy of the "Interim Regulations on the Management of Maglev Traffic in the New Country" and handed it to Minister Zhou.
The purpose of today's trip has been achieved, and there is a big matter in his heart, Minister Zhou can't sit still, and after drinking the tea in the cup, he pulls Manager Guo and Jiang Chen to say goodbye.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the office on the top floor, Jiang Chen looked down at the business car that left the Future People Building, and almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
He doesn't care about the income of the charging pile, the State Grid accounts for the lion's share, the operating company takes a bite, the local finance takes a bite, and the central government has to take a bite.
What really cares about him is the development of industry standards.
If the charging piles in all highway service areas in China have been replaced with wireless charging piles, and they are also wireless charging piles produced by Future People's Heavy Industries, then other competitors who want to enter the pure electric vehicle market will have to accept the standards formulated by Future's Heavy Industries, and at the same time pay a certain amount of patent authorization fees and charging pile certification fees, otherwise users will break down on the highway with your car, and they will have to find charging piles everywhere.
Invisibly, the future of people heavy industry through the development of standards to improve the threshold of the industry, and the cost of potential competitors. The benefits generated by this are far greater than the operation of the charging pile itself, but it cannot be turned into visible money in the short term.
In addition, the service of charging piles will also be linked with the business of Future Technology.
Users only need to click on the button of "pure electric vehicle charging" with a mobile phone that has downloaded Future Man 1.0, and they can automatically complete the matching of charging piles, as well as deduction and charging services according to the user's GPS information.
And on the mobile phone, users will also be able to check the electricity price of nearby charging piles in real time. In the future, there is no need to stuff a bunch of colorful fuel cards in your wallet, and you can complete all the required operations directly with your mobile phone.
Returning to his desk, Jiang Chen clicked on the holographic screen, called Yang Guanglei, CEO of Future People Heavy Industries, and informed him of the cooperation he had just negotiated with FAW Group, and at the same time instructed him to prepare to expand the production of wireless charging piles.
It's not just on the highway, it's used in all the parking lots in the city. If Huaguo is really planning to promote "three-dimensional transportation", then it is almost foreseeable that pure electric vehicles will usher in a blowout period in China!
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chen leaned on the office chair and stretched, asked the secretary to remove the tea, and changed a cup of coffee for him.
Just then, however, a call from Kerwin came. (To be continued.) )
