Chapter 276: Nephew! See the nephew again!
Xiao Chenxi said very seriously, and the guys in front of him finally discovered the cruelty of the market, and the company is really ready to take some people under the knife.
No one said anything like asking for a lightening of the burden, it didn't work at all. Although the Soviet Union did not say that chickens and monkeys were killed, there were definitely a lot of such things happening, and during the time they came to China, these old Maozi also heard this allusion, and no one wanted to become the chicken that the company was killed to show its determination to the monkeys.
"Now assign the research task," seeing that the effect was very good, Zhang Lan nodded with satisfaction, "Mr. Vasily will serve as the deputy leader of the V-twin motorcycle engine series research team, and the temporary acting team leader; Mr. Maxim is the leader of the research group of the large-displacement multi-cylinder motorcycle engine series; Mr. Shiryakov continued to serve in the tasks previously assigned by the company, and the members of the research group remained unchanged, and after the study was completed, they were merged into Mr. Vasily's research group, when he became the head of the group. The leader of the research team can choose his own group research members, but the technical forces on both sides must not deviate too much. ”
Regarding Zhang Lan's appointment of Vasily at the beginning and the fact that he did not make any arrangements for Shiryakov at all, everyone was a little puzzled, why Shiriyakov, who was most valued by the boss, did not make any arrangements for him? But after listening to all the appointments, it finally dawned on me that this was the case!
Many people can't help but start to be jealous of this guy Shiryakov: how can this guy be so lucky that he can be so valued by the boss! These people didn't think about it carefully, there is no disgust for no reason in the world, and there will be no appreciation for no reason, everyone is in the Alice Group together, why is it that Shiryakov can get such love from several bosses of the Alice Group? Naturally, it was Shiryakov who showed reason for their appreciation.
happily scared the guys in the company who were planning to mess around, and indirectly scared the car designers who were ready to learn from their compatriots, Zhang Lan felt very happy.
It's sometimes fun to kill chickens and show them to monkeys, and when you see the horrified looks on the faces of those monkeys, that feeling, well. It's cool, it's very cool.
The meeting was very successful and the mood of the entire motorcycle design company changed over the next few days. Everyone seemed to see that they had lost their jobs and were in danger again, so they had to tighten the clockwork for themselves and start working hard, and the working atmosphere of the whole company was new. I don't see some guys lazy anymore.
This kind of working state makes Zhang Zongjun and Alice very satisfied: this is like words, and this is a bit like China's largest motorcycle research company!
Vasily and Maxim had quickly chosen the members of their research group, and although everyone wanted to choose the best part, the boss had already said that the research forces on both sides had to be about the same, and the two had to discuss on the basis of everyone's voluntary willingness.
Many designers are very willing to go to the V-twin engine research group, after all, they used to be engaged in twin-cylinder engine research, although it is not a V-twin, but with the previous foundation. It's easier to study a V-twin engine than a multi-cylinder engine, right?
Persimmon is always picked and pinched, and so is work, everyone wants to find a brisk dry. With the same salary and bonuses, there's no need to pick up the dirty and tired, right?
Zhang Lan naturally knew what was happening in the design company, but he didn't speak: the V-twin engine is simple? By the time you do it, you'll know that designing a good V-twin engine is no less difficult than designing a multi-cylinder engine, otherwise why would Harley-Davidson keep using this classic V-twin engine, which has been selling well, and hasn't chosen an alternative?
For Alice Group. The Indianapolis Motorcycle Association of the United States is naturally no stranger, the company's legendary development history is still talked about by every American, everyone knows where Alice Group went to China to open a motorcycle company for only 6 million US dollars, and a year later, the motorcycle company earned more than 800 million US dollars for Alice Group!
Nearly eighty times the difference. No one pursued the story behind this, everyone only knew that the Alice Group had made $800 million in China in a year, and everyone could only express endless envy for this, plus deep admiration for the Alice Group's daring to bet on China.
Receiving an application from the Alice Group to participate in this year's American International Motorcycle Show, although it was strange why a company that sells cheap motorcycles in China would participate in the largest motorcycle show in the whole of the United States and even the world, this did not prevent them from agreeing to the application. Yes, since they produce motorcycles and will pay themselves an exhibition fee, what reason do you have to disagree? Pushing the money that comes to your door is something that only a fool would do!
As for the reason for the Alice Group's participation, the Indianapolis Motorcycle Industry Association personnel have had a variety of speculations: Do they want to return to the American market? Many people thought of this possibility and then laughed: How is it possible?! Don't they know how many motorcycle merchants are fighting in the U.S. market? Harley-Davidson, Honda, Suzuki, Kawasaki, Yamaha, Ducati, Piaggio, just about any premium motorcycle manufacturer in the world can be found here. Now the Alice Group is also thinking of intervening in the lever, do they think this is China? Can you make money just by coming here?
Zhang Lan began to wonder if for this auto show, should he get a few nephews to go over? There are ready-made engines in the company, and this is what is equipped for all-terrain vehicles, and they are all improved models, not only lighter in weight, but also in terms of power performance compared with the original engine, which is much better!
In China, the nephew is a thing that only the poor play, and the rich and powerful people play cars, but in foreign countries it is the opposite, and the nephew is not something that ordinary people can afford, it is a real rich man's toy, and it is expensive to die. In the Japanese market, it cost 1 million yen to buy a nephew, but how much did it cost to buy a Honda motorcycle of the same displacement at that time? How much does it cost to buy a regular car?
It seems that it's not bad to get a nephew to make some foreigner money, at least you can earn a travel fee, right? If you think of it, you will do it, Zhang Lan immediately ordered to get a few nephews to come out!
Of course, the nephew can no longer be the dirty fluttering appearance before, the whole style has been redesigned, while retaining the original feeling of the nephew, some new designs have also been added, which can not only make those foreigners who like nostalgia have a surprise when they see old friends, but also can shut up those who open their mouths all day long and shut up the guys who are environmentally friendly: the nephew is equipped with a new 750CC EFI engine, not only the engine performance is better than the original nephew, but also more fuel-efficient, but also more environmentally friendly.
In addition to this original old soldier, Zhang Lan also designed a new-looking nephew, well, it is a "nephew" model for Hiryakov's original high-end motorcycle research mission, and redesigned the side bucket to match the shape of the car. THE DISPLACEMENT OF UP TO 2000CC IS ENOUGH TO MAKE THIS NEPHEW ONE OF THE STRONGEST NEPHEWS IN HISTORY.
For Zhang Lan's extremely irresponsible task to throw to him again, Shiryakov couldn't cry or laugh, fortunately, there was no research task this time, it was purely to produce old things from before, and the engine was even more ready-made, just adding a side bucket, but it was not much difficult, and it didn't take much time.
It's just that for the new nephew who is engaged in again, Shiryakov has some slander in his heart, why is such a beautiful high-end travel cruiser must be made with a "nephew" model? How awkward it looks!
I don't know what the boss is thinking, but since the boss has ordered it, he has to work hard to do it, and Shiryakov has to complain about his work, seeing that the time is getting closer and closer, then he has to work overtime. People who come out of a socialist country are good at this, they think that overtime is normal, there is no big deal, and they will not talk to you about overtime pay if they work a little overtime like in capitalist countries.
Originally, Zhang Lan and Xiao Chenxi both planned to take over by themselves if Shiriyakov and others couldn't handle these tasks a month later, but now it seems that after being scared by Zhang Zongjun and Alice last time, everyone's enthusiasm has increased a lot, and the progress of the work can even make everyone satisfied, even after assigning them new tasks, I didn't expect them to be able to do the previous work without delaying it, which reminded Zhang Lan of the cattle in the countryside: If you don't drive it, it won't move forward!
One day in mid-July, Nikolayevich came running around and excitedly reported to Alice that the company had assigned him the task that he had now obtained qualified laboratory products, and invited her to come and have a look.
The results came out so quickly? Zhang Lan was a little curious, but he didn't expect this guy to brag, he said that it would take at most half a year, Zhang Lan thought that it would take at least half a year to get results, but he didn't expect that he could be successful in the laboratory in just over five months, and this guy really has some real materials.
