"Well, it's hard to say," Alice shook her head, "there are still more than half of the production lines that have not been installed, and there is no way to make an accurate assessment until all the production lines have been inspected by us." ”

"Then give me a rough assessment," Zhang Lan said, "It doesn't require much detail, just make an assessment on the basis of the production lines that you have tested so far." ”

"If that's the case," Alice looked down and pondered, "it would cost about $100 million or so, and many of the parts on the production line were too inefficient in our opinion and needed to be replaced with more efficient parts." Many parts of the production line even need to be discarded and redesigned. Since the production line needs to be improved, it is natural to be the best. ”

"100 million!" As soon as these words came out, Zhang Lan was suddenly taken aback, and was a little smacked, "It only cost 200 million US dollars to buy these production lines, but now it costs 100 million US dollars to improve them. ”

"This is only the most preliminary estimate, because of the advanced level of technology, many parts need to be processed on CNC machine tools ourselves," Jill added on the side, "maybe 100 million dollars will not be used." But according to my estimates, the greater likelihood that one hundred million is not enough! ”

"You two don't test my heart anymore," Zhang Lan groaned, "just tell me how much it will cost if all these production lines are improved according to the improvement method you envisioned!" ”

"That's it!" Alice and Jill glanced at each other, "Well, based on the current situation, $180 million to $200 million should be a more reliable number." ”

"Oh," Zhang Lan nodded a little numbly, "In other words, the things we bought back are equivalent to a pile of scrap metal, and the money we need to spend to transform these things is almost equivalent to buying these things again?" ”

"The same cannot be said. In fact, these production lines are still very good, and there is no problem with using them directly without improvement, but the improved production line is more efficient," Alice nodded. Then he added, "But one thing I can guarantee is that the production line that we have improved so much should be the most automated and intelligent automobile production line on the planet." As for how much efficiency has improved? Let me give you an example: the difference is like the speed of your bicycle and the speed of a car on the highway, how big do you say the difference is? ”

"That being the case. Then change it. Zhang Lan's face was tragic, and she touched her trouser pocket with some pain, as if it contained her own wallet, and what was even more tragic was that it seemed that the money was about to be snatched away.

Looking at Zhang Lan's appearance of a miser, Alice laughed for a while: "Are you still worried about money?" The money earned by the company has not been spent much over the years, even the construction of the automobile factory project has not cost much money for a while. I've never found a company with as much cash flow as we have. ”

"There will be more things to spend money in the future!" Zhang Lan began to count Alice with a serious face, "The improvement of the production line costs money, right?" Does it cost money to customize a car body mold? The construction of a car sales channel also costs money, right? Naturally, the research of new cars costs more money! ”

After counting for a long time, Zhang Lan sighed, "It all costs money, and every project that costs money is not small." So far, I haven't seen a single project that has been able to make me money. ”

"But you forgot?" Alice smiled and asked rhetorically, "The money knocked out from the Black Cubs and the Ku Klux Klan has not been spent more than 100 million yuan after the construction of the motorcycle production base and motorcycle sales channels in the United States." All this money can be used for you. ”

That's right! Hearing Alice's words, Zhang Lan's spirits perked: how could she forget such a stubble! And so much money! Doing your own things without spending your own money is cool! Hehe, forget that you are also so-so, and you are not a small millionaire.

But in a blink of an eye, the little face fell: Alice's words are good, but the money is nominally Alice's, although it is no different from her own money, but it can't be used so blatantly! Don't say anything else. It seems that my parents can't get through that hurdle.

"Is that still going to change?" Alice asked with a grin, but there was no trace of worry on her face: how could she not understand this guy's mind? Although this guy is worried about money, he is definitely not the kind of person who holds on to money and does not let go, otherwise it would be impossible for this guy to carry out so many research projects at the same time. If it weren't for Alice's good sales momentum in the past two years and turned into a crazy and never-ending money printing machine, it is likely that these projects would not have been able to continue, and Alice had to transfer overseas funds to use.

"Change!" Zhang Lan gritted her teeth and said viciously. The painful expression seemed to have been stripped of a piece of flesh from the heart, and a small face was deformed in distress, "What do you do to make money?" Isn't it just for the flowers? As the old saying goes: money is a bastard, and we'll earn it when it's spent! ”

In other words, it's just a joke, in fact, the company has made a lot of money in the past two years, which is a bit worrying, how should so much money be spent? In the past two years, Alice Group has continued to donate, build roads and build a lot of hope primary schools, but you can't do it without moderation, sometimes you do good things depends on whether the local government is willing to accept your kindness.

Looking at these things to do, it seems to cost a lot of money, but at most it is only equivalent to half a year's profit of the motorcycle company, the company's nearly three years of capital accumulation and the money earned from the international crude oil futures market has not been spent much so far, the problem of funds, there is nothing to worry about.

"Then you have to be mentally prepared," Alice said, "even if we start to make improvements now, and the installation of the production line is carried out at the same time, but with the time to order those parts, even if it is scheduled, all the production lines will be installed next year, oh no, it should be this year, in October of this year, and all the production lines will be improved, and it will not be completed until March next year." ”

"It's okay," Zhang Lan felt indifferent to this, "The production line is not one or two, there are so many, I estimate that even when production starts, it is impossible to start all the production lines. ”

This is true, if you can start the production line at the beginning of production, it will really create a myth in the automotive industry.

The evil final exams are finally over, and the happy annual leave is finally late, but there always seems to be something to disturb your good mood, such as having a good winter vacation, but I want to assign a winter vacation homework for you to do, which makes Zhang Lan depressed. It's like a dish you have fried, and suddenly flies fly over and keep lying on it, making you depressed.

Thinking that she didn't seem to have the habit of doing summer or winter vacation homework before, Zhang Lan finally decided to swatt this depressed fly to death! Maybe this answer is a little incomprehensible, so let's put it simply, that is: the winter vacation homework was directly thrown into the garbage heap by Zhang Lan!

Why don't people have winter vacation homework in college, but we have in elementary school? Is it fun to bully small children?

Xiao Chenxi has finished the exam and returned home, next summer will be the time when this girl will graduate from her undergraduate degree in four years, although this girl doesn't take much class, this is good, and the actual thing is that this girl has never taken a day of class! But it's a pity that this girl's IQ is too high, her self-learning ability is too strong, and her head is too smart - at least that's what Xiao Chenxi's teachers think - every time she takes an exam, she deserves to be the first in the whole department, and several old professors like this smart girl very much, and under the joint recommendation, Xiao Chenxi naturally got the qualification of a graduate student at Peking University.

For this, Yang Zhi was proud and anxious in her heart, and couldn't help but nag Zhang Zongjun at night: This girl is 20 years old after the New Year, and it's time to find a boyfriend! But this girl is so smart and proud, what other people's children can be worthy of our daughter? With the intelligence of our daughter, whose children can we look at in our eyes?

When it comes to the current identity and status of the Zhang family, although in the choice of son-in-law, it doesn't matter if the money and status of the man's family are not paid attention to, but if it is an ordinary person, in front of the majesty of the Zhang family's huge financial resources, how many people are not ashamed of themselves and their legs are not trembling?

It's not that no one has thought of the idea of chasing Zhang Chenxi into his hands and using this to fly up the branches and become a phoenix, but the sad thing is that none of the guys who have this idea end up failing: no matter what tricks these guys use to please Xiao Chenxi, Xiao Chenxi didn't take a look at these guys at all, no matter whether these guys really like themselves, or they like their own money, hoping to fly on the branches and become a phoenix; It doesn't matter if these guys are poor or rich in their families; It doesn't matter if these guys are talented or wine bags.

This was originally a whisper between Yang Zhi and Zhang Zongjun in the bedroom, it is said that there are only two people in the bedroom, Zhang Zongjun and Yang Zhi, there is a way that the law does not pass on six ears, in this case, it is absolutely impossible for the conversation between the two people to be known by the third person, but I don't know what's going on, the whispers of the two people were known by Zhang Lan, Xiao Chenxi, Alice, and the next night when they had dinner, they didn't know who inadvertently mentioned this topic, or it was someone who did it on purpose, so it was natural to talk about the issue of women getting married.
