"Xiaoqiang, tell your uncle, is this really a new car you designed?"
When Liu Yonghao came down from the 'Yidong' brought by Jin Xiaoqiang and them, he grabbed Jin Xiaoqiang and asked fiercely.
To be honest, this car really shocked him, after Liu Yonghao returned from the demobilization of the army, he once accepted the arrangement of his family to work in BAIC for a period of time, so he still knows a lot about cars, otherwise he would not be able to sit in the position of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology to manage the approval of automobiles.
To be honest, the car that Jin Xiaoqiang and the others brought today really shocked him.
Liu Yonghao has not driven a good car, almost every car in the joint venture will be given to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology for test drive and approval before it is mass-produced.
When he first started working in the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Liu Yonghao didn't know how many of those joint venture cars of more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan, and later he was in a high position, and he had long disdained to test the car in person.
But after eating at noon today, he looked at the face of his old comrade-in-arms Jin Guozhu, and then came back to follow them to see the car and test the car.
You must know that when he received a call from Jin Guozhu at the beginning, saying that his son was building a car, Liu Yonghao completely thought he was joking, as the vice minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, especially the big man in the management of automobile manufacturing, he was very clear about the current automobile manufacturing industry in the Celestial Empire, and how difficult it was to build a car.
The reason why they didn't let Jin Guozhu and them directly take their so-called car to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology for approval through the normal procedures, Liu Yonghao was afraid that their car would be unreliable, and it would not only be Jin Guozhu's face that would be lost, but even he would be disgraced.
But when he and Jin Guozhu and his son walked out of the house, came to the warehouse rented by their father and son in the capital, and saw the car with beautiful lines and an indescribable domineering body, Liu Yonghao was shocked at that time.
This is the car that the 'unreliable' kid made?
At that time, when Jin Guozhu called him and said that he wanted to build a car, Liu Yonghao had no good impression of Jin Xiaoqiang, and in his understanding, this was pure nonsense.
It must be that Lao Jin was fed [***] medicine by this little Jin who didn't know what to do, so he believed the words of this bastard son, you must know how easy it is to build a car?
It must be that this Xiaojin is a loser who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to cheat on his father, and his father made such a ridiculous call to himself because he doted on his son.
If it weren't for the fact that Jin Guozhu had saved his life on the battlefield in Vietnam, Liu Yonghao would really be too lazy to agree to Jin Guozhu's request for help.
But when he saw this car with his own eyes, Liu Yonghao changed, he no longer felt that Jin Xiaoqiang was a bastard who was spoiled and grew up and didn't know how thick the sky was.
He first circled around this car three times, and then judged from the perspective of an old car man who has been engaged in the automobile industry for more than ten years that this car can kill most of the models in the Celestial Empire automobile market just by its appearance, and even a large part of joint venture cars and imported cars.
Then after getting in the car and driving for a lap, Liu Yonghao was even more shocked, you must know that a few years ago, the vanguard of its own brand, Ricky Automobile, also sent several models for approval.
At that time, because it was the only one made in China, he had also gotten into the car with great interest to test drive a few times, but after a few laps, his heart was cold.
First of all, the gear of the car is jerky, especially in the process of changing the first gear to the second gear and then changing the third gear, in the case of a cold car, the gear is not clear, and it is very difficult to hang.
After that, the chassis is loose at high speed, the induction lag after shifting, there is an obvious sense of frustration, and there is a loud noise, the moment of ignition, you can hear the roar of the engine when you sit in the car, and the steering wheel is trembling with the rotation of the engine.
Since then, he has not had much hope for the cars of the Celestial Empire's own brand, but after driving the car named Yidong brought by Jin Xiaoqiang and them today, he was completely shocked.
If it weren't for Jin Guozhu and Jin Xiaoqiang, father and son, standing in front of him, he really couldn't believe that this was a domestic car they built.
After he drove this car for a few laps, he gave him the feeling that this must be a foreign car, and it was a purely imported one, just at the almost inaudible noise, as well as the feel of the gearbox, and the stability of the chassis, he really couldn't understand how this car could be a domestic car?
Liu Yonghao drove all the models brought by Jin Xiaoqiang and them, from the 2.0DVVT manual transmission of Yidong, to the 2.4DVVT manual integration, and even the other level of Octavia 1.6CVVT did not let go.
He drove all the models, not only in the city, but even in the western suburbs, and ran a big lap on the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Expressway.
This afternoon, he didn't report to the unit at all, he made a few phone calls to the secretary, postponed several appointments, and followed Jin Xiaoqiang and their father and son around the world for a test drive.
"Xiaoqiang, don't worry, your cars are absolutely fine, and you can rest assured in the future, as long as you can still build such a car, as long as you take it, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will definitely not fail to pass."
After listening to Jin Xiaoqiang's explanation, Liu Yonghao patted his chest directly with him, especially after he listened to Jin Xiaoqiang's design process and production process, now in his eyes, this Jin Xiaoqiang is definitely a genius nephew who can be cultivated.
In his opinion, this Jin Xiaoqiang will not only become the pride of his old comrades-in-arms in the next few years, but even more likely to become the pride of the automobile industry of the Celestial Empire.
How can such a nephew not be promoted and cultivated?
With Liu Yonghao's words, Jin Xiaoqiang was relieved, and his father stayed with Uncle Liu for a few days, so he hurried back to Xigangzi, after all, he was more concerned about his mineral company now.
And Jin Xiaoqiang still has to stay, under the guidance and recommendation of Uncle Liu, to meet many big people on the street, you must know that this approval is not only the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, but also the Ministry of Public Security and other departments to review it, so many gods are going to burn incense.
The car was busy for five days, and around March 20th, Wang Jiao finally took care of the things at the factory, and then felt that the capital and Jin Xiaoqiang would reconcile.
Derek has already taken their experimental prototype car and some Huayang Power personnel back to Europe first, and this time Wang Jiao came over, Jin Xiaoqiang of course had other tasks to hand over to him.
Liu Mei came to the capital with Wang Jiao, and Liu Mei has been working in the business development department during this time, but he has also done a good job, and he quickly showed his talent.
In addition, she and Jin Xiaoqiang have an inexplicable relationship, how can Wang Jiao not have the eyesight to see, so of course it is a strong promotion and training for this newcomer, and now Liu Mei is on the side of the business development department, and she can already be in charge alone.
Jin Xiaoqiang asked Wang Jiao to come to the capital this time, just to let Wang Jiao implement it as soon as possible, and their Huayang Automobile nationwide investment promotion to establish a franchise 4S store.
There is no problem with the approval of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and I believe that the production batch number will be obtained soon, and then the commissioning of the machinery and equipment in their new factory is almost complete, and it is currently in the trial production stage.
Recently, the cars that have been participating in extreme experiments in all aspects are also good news, and the Yidong, Octavia, and the urban SUV named Yihu are stable under various extreme conditions, and the powertrain is performing well, so it is no longer a problem to go online.
So now there is only the question of investment promotion and joining, and another is to cooperate with his achievements at the Nürburgring, and to increase publicity in the major news media, etc., so that the Chinese people know their Huayang Power and Huayang Automobile.
This opening ceremony can be said to be quite important to Jin Xiaoqiang and them, and whether Huayang Power can get off to a good start depends on it.
June 10 this year is the opening of the Beijing Auto Show, the biennial Beijing Auto Show, although the influence in the world is limited, but in the Celestial Empire this is a biennial prosperity, many new models will choose to be released on this day.
And they Huayang Power has also signed up, and their Yidong, Yihu, and Octavia series will be launched at this auto show.
And before that, at the Nürburgring, Jin Xiaoqiang was fully confident that his Yidong would run into 9 minutes, so they had to take this opportunity to build momentum before the opening of the auto show, and let their Huayang Power have a perfect start at the auto show.
Therefore, many actions are about to start the preliminary operation, contacting advertisers, recruiting franchisees across the country, arranging print media and online media, as well as TV news media exposure, etc.
So this time, Wang Jiao brought a propaganda team directly from Nanyang, and he had already made corresponding preparations before coming to the capital.
And Jin Xiaoqiang spared no effort in this propaganda work, and directly allocated 100 million yuan of propaganda funds to Wang Jiao and them.
At the same time, he also contacted a person in the capital through Liu Yonghao's relationship, and this person was the head of the famous Autohome website in later generations, Mr. Zhang Chi.
However, at this time, Zhang Chi was still the chief operating officer of a 135 website that made navigation pages, and Jin Xiaoqiang was even more generous, and after several negotiations with the funders of that website, he directly won the website for five million.
After that, he left Zhang Chi and appointed him to continue in the role of chief operating officer, and he also arranged for Zhang Chi to meet with Wang Jiao before leaving the country.
The main topic after the meeting was how to establish the Autohome website as soon as possible.
