Chapter 196: New Motorcycle
After mourning Chiang Kai-shek, the Ling family and others left Taiwan/Bay directly and returned to Hong Kong.
In one day, the continuous travel between the two places is extremely unfavorable to the body of Ling Zhigao, who is already old, and it is very harmful to his health, but there is no way but this, after the death of Lao Jiang, Taiwan/Bay is already a place of right and wrong, and it is better to stay as far away from him as possible, so after coming out of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, when Ling Shizhe proposed to return to Hong Kong immediately, everyone did not object, and Taiwan at this time was really not a place to stay for a long time.
Also coming on the same plane were Li Chunlai and Li Zhen's family, obviously they also had the same mind as the Ling family. They lived in Hong Kong for more than a year and did not return to Taiwan until the political situation in Taiwan/the Gulf became completely clear.
Fortunately, Ling Shizhe had already prepared for a long time, and built a special health care warehouse in the plane, so that the two old people could rest in it, accompanied by a private doctor hired from the United States at a high price for 24-hour monitoring, there was no danger along the way, and the mental state of the two old people was not bad.
The Li family has their own villa in Hong Kong, but Li Chunlai did not live with Li Zhen, but lived in Ling Zhigao's newly built beach villa in Causeway Bay at the distance of Ling Zhigao.
Ling Shizhe and Li Zhen understood the thoughts of the two old men, with the passing of Lao Jiang, the old guys who followed the world together back then were one less and one less, and in their lifetimes, everyone was together for a day, maybe one day would never wake up again.
After returning to Hong Kong, before he had time to quickly sweep away the fatigue of his body, Ling Shizhe put into a new job, and the Hong Kong Ambrera headquarters building was finally completed after nearly five years of construction, and the original Ambrera Hong Kong Industrial Company was now changed to the Ambrera Asia-Pacific headquarters and Hong Kong laboratory, as well as many subsidiaries had to move to the new building.
The Hong Kong headquarters building is Ling Shizhe's imitation of the Apple spaceship headquarters building in his previous life, located in Tseung Kwan O near the seaside, covering an area of 320,000 square meters.
Tseung Kwan O was originally a small village in the middle of nowhere, but now it has been turned into a large construction site.
Since Ling Shizhe came to Hong Kong in this time and space, relying on the golden finger advantage of rebirth, he has laid a semiconductor foundation in Hong Kong, an electronic desert area with almost no high-tech foundation, and since then Hong Kong's history has undergone great changes.
Relying on the aura of no rebirth of others, as well as the extremely keen business sense and extremely accurate business decision-making judgment, Ambrera has stepped on the most accurate foothold in every step of her rise, and over the years, Hong Kong has now become the most famous high-tech city in Asia after Silicon Valley.
As early as 1970, before he left office, Hong Kong Governor Stanley Tai made a plan to develop a new municipal administration in Tseung Kwan O, hoping to turn Tseung Kwan O into a high-tech town to represent the future of Hong Kong.
After MacLehose took office, he continued to implement the plan for the development of Hong Kong's high-tech industries and gave various policy supports, so Tseung Kwan O has achieved rapid development.
The Hong Kong government's new town development plan has made Hong Kong's real estate developers like sharks smelling blood, frantically squeezing in and wantonly enclosing land, making the land price in Tseung Kwan O unattainable for a period of time.
At that time, the OEM enterprises and parts supply companies cultivated by Ambrera were still in their infancy, and they could not compete with those real estate predators for the time being, so they had to endure it for the time being.
If it weren't for the well-informed Ling family, Ambrera Company would have occupied a large piece of land before them, otherwise with Ling Shizhe's strength at that time, he would have to retreat in the face of this group of real estate interest groups.
These real estate developers are all a bunch of speculators, no matter what they do, they are holding a vote and leaving, which has a huge damage to the development of all walks of life, so when the British government of Hong Kong decided to develop high-tech industries, they also held this mentality, which brought certain obstacles to the development of Ambrera at that time.
In the face of the crazy actions of these real estate developers, Ling Shizhe did not take any measures to stop them, but also added fuel to the fire through the Ling Group, because he knew that if he didn't die, he wouldn't die, and he was engaged in real estate speculation with a speculative mentality, and sooner or later they would learn a lesson.
Sure enough, in 1973, with the disintegration of the Bretton Woods system, the outbreak of the global oil crisis, the economic recession in Europe and the United States, coupled with the sheep shearing action of the British, the end of those real estate developers came, and the land price in Hong Kong fell to only one-seventh of last year's price in less than a year, a large number of real estate tycoons collapsed, and a large number of banks went bankrupt and closed.
At this time, after several years of painstaking development, the Ambrera brothers were not affected in the slightest in this stock market crash, but at this moment of alternating and reshuffling the old and the new, they quickly replaced the position left by the old and rich, and completely trampled the real estate developers under their feet.
After these emerging tech tycoons came up, they quickly cleaned up the mess left by those real estate developers, and Tseung Kwan O entered a healthy state of development.
Thanks to the efforts of these new tycoons, it only took one year for Hong Kong to get out of the quagmire of economic crisis and drive towards a fast and healthy highway.
It took more than a month to complete the relocation of the company, and on the first day of moving into the new headquarters building, Ling Shizhe held a senior management meeting.
In this meeting, Ling Shizhe decided to merge the jet and propulsion departments into Ambrera Electric Company, and at the same time formulated the future development plan of Ambrera Transportation Equipment Manufacturing Company.
The first is to develop a new aircraft, the development of the Flying Kite medium/advanced trainer aircraft (K-8) has been ongoing, after the merger of Bombardier, more than half of the engineers joined the K-8 development project, and the remaining half was transferred to the UAV department, and finally the rest could not be idle, so Ling Shizhe discussed with Zhou Yuanhang, and decided to develop a new aircraft, a M-18B single hump agricultural aircraft from Poland in later generations.
The Polish M-18B Dromedary is an excellent large agricultural aircraft with a lower monoplane, all-metal structure. In later generations, it was recognized as an aircraft with extremely high performance and cost performance, and its simple structure, easy operation, easy maintenance, robustness, reliability and durability made it one of the best-selling agricultural aircraft in the 21st century.
The Polish M-18B has a maximum take-off weight of 5,300 kg, a maximum load of 2,470 kg, a practical ceiling of 4,000 meters, a transit range of 970 kilometers, and a cruising speed of 200 kilometers per hour; With a volume of 2,500 liters and a high load factor, the Polish M-18B dromedary agricultural machine also has a huge advantage in forest firefighting.
Moreover, the power system of this aircraft uses a piston star engine, which is not technically large, and can be handed over to the jet propulsion laboratory to do, so Ling Shizhe has every reason to believe that the early birth of the M-18B will definitely become another gold mine for the Chinese aircraft company.
The failure of the development of Bombardier's BTK aircraft made Ling Shizhe and Zhou Yuanhang deeply aware that if there is no deep technical accumulation, blindly launching a large aircraft is purely an act of looking for death, and Bombardier at this time is not the world's third largest aircraft manufacturer at this time, and the technical foundation is quite weak.
Therefore, after many months of market investigation, Ling Shizhe believes that the launch of the M-18B "single hump" agricultural machine is the most suitable for the current Chinese aircraft industry company, because it is simpler than the K-8, at most two or three years, the first prototype can be manufactured, and then the test flight test for one or two years can be put into the market, plus the M-18B has a great market prospect, so that it can not only make money but also accumulate technology and experience, which can really kill two birds with one stone.
Ling Shizhe also has a specific plan for the motorcycle department, and Bombardier's most famous motorcycle in later generations is its inverted three-wheeled motorcycle and four-wheeled all-terrain vehicle, among which the "Spider-Man" series is a classic among the classics.
A good horse with a good saddle, such a good motorcycle must have a good power system to match it, so in the motorcycle information handed over to Navali, there is also a new motorcycle power system - the GS engine from Suzuki.
This engine was introduced by the Japanese company Suzuki in the early 80s, and it consists of a core of "CCI" discrete lubrication system, "PEI" contactless ignition (similar to CDI), "SACS" system, "SAEC" automatic exhaust system, and a rectangular four-cylinder engine.
Compared with the CG engine and the CB engine, the GS engine has superior acceleration performance, low fuel consumption, low noise, low vibration and good comfort. It adopts an overhead cam structure, which makes the engine's valve mechanism more compact, which is very suitable for driving at high speeds.
In the 90s, the Republic of China introduced the manufacturing technology of GS engines to Suzuki, so this engine is a bad street technology that can be seen on motorcycles in later generations. Later generations like what Haojue Diamond Leopard series, EN125 series, Junwei series are all using GS engines.
These materials are in Ling Shizhe's computer, after the data is copied, the company's patent department will apply for a patent as soon as possible, don't hurry up, Suzuki has been working hard for this engine for more than ten years, and there will be five years at most to apply for a patent.
Now, this technology has been snatched away by Ling Shizhe, and they have nowhere to sue. Everyone knows that Bombardier's motorcycle engine technology has always been at the forefront of the world, and now that it has been acquired by Ambrera, no one will think that we have stolen the technology that belongs to Little Japan.
With these two things, Ling Shizhe felt that it was not enough, and after looking for a long time in his notebook, he decided to add an insurance for the motorcycle department, in addition to the inverted three-wheeled motorcycle, Ling Shizhe also drew the famous motorcycle of the Honda Golden Wing.
The Honda Gold Wing is a high-end luxury touring motorcycle launched by Honda in 1975 with a water-cooled symmetrical six-cylinder engine.
Although the Golden Wing has been born at this time, its appearance is simply scum in Ling Shizhe's opinion, and it cannot be compared with the Golden Wing of later generations, so Ling Shizhe shamelessly plagiarized the classic shape of the 1800L (called 1.8L by some domestic media) launched by Honda in 2010, hoping to improve Bombardier's motorcycle division, which has been obviously sluggish.
Moreover, the motorcycle water-cooled engine has always been Bombardier's technical strength, and it has always been the leader in the world, so handing over the Goldwing 1800L to them is not an insult to it.
The shape of the Goldwing 1800C, coupled with Bombardier's unique water-cooled engine powertrain, can make motorcycle fans around the world crazy just thinking about it.
Navali is completely convinced of Ling Shizhe, he has been engaged in motorcycle manufacturing for many years, and he never thought that motorcycles could be designed like this, suppressing the shock in his heart, what kind of gearbox is the most appropriate for these two motorcycles.
See that Valli looking at the drawings in a daze, touch! Touch! Touch! Ling Shizhe knocked on the table three times, Navali came back to his senses, saw Ling Shizhe looking at him, and hurriedly said, "Sorry boss, I think the problem is in a trance." ”
"What do you think, so engrossed?"
The leader was speaking, and found that there were people below who were in a daze, and none of them would be comfortable as leaders, if they couldn't give the leader a good explanation, then Wally would definitely suffer, so he explained: "Boss, I was just thinking, what kind of gearbox is appropriate for these two motorcycles?" ”
It turned out that he was thinking about this, Ling Shizhe's heart was a little better, and suddenly his heart moved, as if he had ignored something, and asked, "Have you come up with something?" ”
"BOSS, there are two kinds of gearboxes for motorcycles, one is a continuously variable transmission, and the other is a CVT continuously variable transmission, and I think both transmissions are not very suitable for these two new types of motorcycles."
