Chapter 306: The Boss Ignored by the Employees
Although there are many differences between multi-cylinder water-cooled engine and V-twin water-cooled engine, after all, it is a motorcycle engine, and many technologies are figured out, the most critical of which is water-cooled technology.
In fact, the V-twin engine with passive air-cooled mode can still reach more than 1800 cc of displacement, but the current cylinder block application materials can not meet such high requirements, and in a few years, the emergence of new high-temperature resistant metal alloys makes these problems can be perfectly solved, but it has to be said that even with a large displacement of air-cooled V-twin engine, in terms of efficiency, or the work efficiency of the water-cooled engine is higher.
Zhang Lan has never understood why Lao Mei has a soft spot for large-displacement air-cooled V-twin engines, in Zhang Lan's opinion, that paranoia is almost a pathology, is it because of the rhythmic engine roar? But the engine sound of the water-cooled V-twin engine is almost exactly the same as the sound of the air-cooled V-twin engine.
Although in the late sixties to the early eighties, Japan's Honda, Suzuki, Kawasaki, and Yamaha four major motorcycle manufacturers also used to use a large number of motorcycles in the American motorcycle market to resemble Harley, but lighter, cheaper, and better quality motorcycles. Davidson motorcycles formed a strong impact at the most tragic time, and the Japanese motorcycle companies even once put Harley. Davidson was forced to suffer huge losses year after year, and even to the brink of bankruptcy, but in the end, Harley. Davidson finally came back to life with the help of the U.S. government.
Zhang Lan doesn't know if he can force Harley to death in this history, but now, there is still a great possibility that he will force little Japan to death in the American motorcycle market. The price war and the quality war are the magic weapon of Japanese motorcycle companies, but the motorcycle products of Alice Group are not only lower than Japanese motorcycles in cost, but also a little higher than Japanese motorcycles in quality. It's just a little, but that's enough!
"If you use a water-cooled V-twin engine," Alice asked as if she didn't care, "how long will you be able to complete the task?" To know. Time is running out until you complete your mission. Although the mistakes you made are excusable, but after all, it is caused by your own negligence, and the company cannot open up to you for this reason. ”
Until this time. The researchers present really saw how strict their requirements for their subordinates were, the boss who was smiling all day long, beautiful as an elf, seemingly harmless to humans and animals, and who was a sweet smile to everyone: although you couldn't see it at ordinary times, once you violated the company's rules, or your work did not meet the company's requirements. Sorry, please refer to the company's rules and regulations.
Shiryakov was thinking in his mind: by now, there were almost two months left before the deadline of the mission. Previously, my team had designed the style and structure of the V-twin engine of 1500 to 1600 cc and 1800 to 2000 cc, but it was only because of the cooling problem that it was stranded here. Even when the cooling problem was stuck, everyone also considered the way of water cooling. I even used to make a detailed design, and now I can use it if I take it and revise it again.
Now there are nearly two months to go until the deadline, and for myself, who is already a semi-finished product and has the water-cooled design and technology, it should not be too much of a problem to complete these two engines in nearly two months, right? As long as you work overtime, you can complete even the most basic tests of the engine.
Having made up his mind, Shiryakov finally raised his head and told Alice with certainty: "Boss, I promise, I will definitely be able to complete these two engines within the deadline!" ”
"Good." Alice nodded, "I hope you don't let me down." As he spoke, he stood up, "I guess you'll be very busy for the rest of the day, so I won't disturb your work." You're busy. Let's go look elsewhere. ”
Seeing the completion of these guys' tasks, Zhang Lan was already very satisfied, even if these guys did not complete the development of these two heavyweight V-twin engines when the task expired, Zhang Lan would not really fire them, after all, the four levels of engines that had been successfully developed in front of them were there.
However, since the task is not completed, the corresponding punishment is definitely needed. Zhang Lan decided. If you really can't complete the task by then, these guys' mission completion bonuses will be gone!
Seeing Alice, Zhang Lan, and Xiao Chenxi leaving the research room and slowly moving away, everyone breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, thinking that they and others would have to complete the development of the two engines in nearly two months, otherwise they would probably be unlucky, and couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh, and quickly transferred all their energy to work - the next nearly two months are directly related to their future jobs! Even if you lose ten catties of meat, you can't lose this job that makes everyone covetous.
Well, I have to say that sometimes appropriate intimidation is more effective than blind exhortation, especially if it is related to their vital interests.
Alice Group's treatment for the company's researchers is definitely the highest in the entire Chinese motorcycle industry, and now when it comes to the treatment of Alice Group, as long as they are engaged in the motorcycle industry, no matter who is not a thumbs up and envy to drool? Not to mention that the company also has a big house to live in for free! How can other companies have this treatment!
That is, because the research strength of Alice Group has reached a very high level in the past two years, there is no need to recruit designers and engineers from outside, if one day Alice Group stands up and shouts: We want to recruit engineers! It is estimated that the bosses of all domestic motorcycle manufacturers will be worried that they will not be able to sleep: lest the designers and engineers of their own company will not be able to withstand the temptation of Alice Group's high salary to jump ship!
"Do you think they'll be able to get these two engines out in a month and a half?" Xiao Chenxi tilted her head and asked Zhang Lan, just looking at the meaning in her words, she seemed to be very worried, but listening carefully to the tone of this girl, there was actually no worry in it.
"Now that they were able to complete the design and prototype production of four V-twin engines in just over four months, the next task should not be too much of a problem." Zhang Lan pondered for a moment, "Although the remaining two engines are also the most difficult, it is estimated that they have completed almost half of the task, if this is really the case, then I estimate that it is not too much of a problem to complete these two engines in a month and a half." ”
"If they can't finish it at that time, do you need Brother Zhu to guide them?" Alice asked with a grin, knowing that Zhang Lan would not agree to ask this, I don't know what the hell this girl started to fight in her heart.
"Don't!" Zhang Lan shook her head resolutely, "You can't develop the inertia of their dependence, in fact, the company's future development mainly depends on them." If everything is leaning on the pillars, what is the need for us to support them? Spend a lot of money to raise a bunch of rice worms that don't have the best? ”
"If only you could figure this out," Alice seemed relieved, "I was a little worried before." ”
"Worried about what?" Hearing Alice's words, Zhang Lan was surprised.
To Zhang Lan's surprise, this time Alice's mouth seemed to be locked, no matter how Zhang Lan asked, it seemed that she had eaten the scales and had an iron heart, but she didn't say it, and she didn't say it if she was killed.
Alice doesn't say it, and Zhang Lan is not in a hurry: If you don't say it, don't say it, sooner or later, you will tell me one day.
After reading the research group of V-twin engines led by Shiryakov, the three of them walked to the research group of large-displacement multi-cylinder engines.
When Zhang Lan and the three of them entered, the staff inside did not quarrel there like the group led by Shiryakov, but everyone was constantly nervous and busy, and they didn't notice that three people had entered their research room, and it was naturally impossible to find out that the three people who came in were their bosses.
"Excuse me," when the three of them looked at the busy crowd and nodded with satisfaction, Zhang Lan heard someone behind him talking behind the three, and when he looked back, he saw that there were two people who didn't know what part they were carrying, and it was unfortunate that the three of them happened to block their way, "Let's go, let's go." ”
"Oh," didn't say anything, and Zhang Lan and the three of them hurriedly got out of the way.
As if they didn't see that the three guys in front of them were their bosses, these two guys walked to Maxim, the leader of the large-displacement multi-cylinder engine team, with the parts they didn't know what they were used for, and they didn't look at Zhang Lan, Xiao Chenxi and Alice from beginning to end.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Lan even began to wonder in his heart, if he hadn't blocked their way, would they have found themselves? Seems likely!
Very good, the three of them are very satisfied with the working state of Maxim's group, and they did not notice the three of them, which means that they are really deeply involved in the research work, which is much better than those employees who began to line up to welcome the boss before the boss entered the door, such employees must be well supplied! If you don't put your mind on work, it's really a parasite and a cancer of the company! Be sure to get rid of it!
