Chapter 267: Red Flag! Red flag!
Tao Leran didn't expect that Jin Xiaoqiang would be so faceless this time.
As soon as he talked about technology transfer, this guy immediately turned his face, which was completely different from the Celestial Empire Autobots he had come into contact with in the past.
You must know that as the leader of FAW before, he had contact with many people in the automobile industry of the Celestial Empire, but no matter which one he met, that person dared not to give him some face?
Of course, he also knows that everyone is polite to him, not because of how awesome he is, but because of the name FAW behind him!
After all, FAW is the big brother of the automobile industry in the Celestial Empire, and he has deep connections in the economic and political circles, so everyone has to sell him a few thin noodles.
But the Jin Xiaoqiang he met today completely subverted his previous concept, this guy is really violent! But this straightforward character is a Northeast person, I like it!
Jin Xiaoqiang was stopped by Tao Leran, he turned around and saw that this guy was sitting on the chair with a smile, and waved to him to sit down and talk slowly, Jin Xiaoqiang didn't want to make too much trouble with FAW, so he had to turn around and sit down.
"XIAOJIN, MAYBE I DIDN'T EXPRESS IT VERY CLEARLY, I DIDN'T MEAN TO ASK YOU TO TRANSFER THE TECHNOLOGY DIRECTLY, WE MEAN, CAN YOU PROVIDE US WITH YOUR ECOBOOST ENGINE AND DUAL-CLUTCH TRANSMISSION."
Tao Leran smiled and said to Jin Xiaoqiang, although Jin Xiaoqiang's strength just now made him feel a little embarrassed, but he has such a little benefit, that is, he is very able to distinguish the situation, and now Jin Xiaoqiang and Huayang Power have the technology they want in their hands, and they are awesome, so they must lower their profile.
"Oh? Hearing you say this, I kind of understand, but Brother Tao, I want to ask, what do you want our engines and transmissions to do? ”
People want their own state-of-the-art engines and transmissions, of course, they want to take a car, but what Jin Xiaoqiang wants to know is, which car do they want to make?
"Hey! I'll tell you straight! Xiaoqiang, we FAW want to cooperate with you this time to re-develop a new generation of Hongqi series cars, so that this old brand can be rebuilt brilliantly! ”
Tao Leran didn't hide it anymore, and said directly to Jin Xiaoqiang.
When Jin Xiaoqiang heard the name Red Flag, his heart suddenly shook and his heart was full of shocks, Red Flag!
Once the pride of the Celestial Empire, once the special car brand of the supreme leader of the Celestial Empire! It's a pity that it's already yesterday!
"Hey! Xiaoqiang, you only do the car industry, in this industry, how people scold us FAW, you must have heard of it. I won't comment on other joint venture brands, but our FAW has indeed never been
I have given up on my own brand. I don't comment on other cars, but the brand Hongqi used to be the pride of our Celestial Empire! Ay! It's only to blame us for not being angry, and we made this brand into this
Shape! ”
Tao Leran saw the expression on Jin Xiaoqiang's face, and obviously guessed what he was thinking, and his own mood was also quite depressed, especially when he mentioned this independent brand.
He is a deputy manager of FAW, and the piece he is now in charge of is FAW's own brand series.
But when he took over this mess, he realized how badly FAW has been defeated over the years!
Originally, FAW still had a lot of talents and technology accumulation, but in recent years, especially after the large-scale cooperation with foreign car dealers, their original skills have long been thrown into Java.
Originally, the talents in the company were even more retired at the point of retirement, and there were no soldiers left at all!
In 1997, the company registered and established a branch and began to specialize in the production of cars, but at the beginning, it was also in cooperation with Volkswagen or Mazda.
Several models have been developed, one developed with Ford Lincoln as the prototype, and later another one was developed with the Toyota Crown as the prototype, but unfortunately in the end they were scolded to death as soon as they were taken out, and they were stillborn before they were put on sale.
At last year's Frankfurt Motor Show, after Huayang Power announced the most advanced ECOBOOST engine technology, he moved his mind again, and he was thinking about whether the two could cooperate. …,
This Tao Leran is not only a technical official, he is also an administrative official, he is sitting in today's position, of course, he also hopes that he can go further.
And he also knew that if he wanted to go further, he had to make some outstanding achievements, so he put his idea on the brand of revival of Hongqi.
As a generation of national courtesy cars, if you want to do a good job of this brand, then you must come up with something convincing, first of all, you have to start from the powertrain.
But in this regard, it is indeed not FAW's strong point, so they naturally hit the idea to Jin Xiaoqiang's Huayang Power.
This Tao Leran also tried to test it at the beginning, if Jin Xiaoqiang was bluffed by the name of FAW, and some talked, then of course it was best, if he didn't bluff, then he had to come to the second set of plans, soft grinding and hard bubbles.
How did Jin Xiaoqiang know these Dao Dao in Tao Leran's stomach, at this time, seeing that he lowered his posture and was condemning himself, he was a little reluctant in his heart.
The brand of Hongqi is not the responsibility of one person to be made into what it is now, and it is inevitably related to the current environment of the entire Celestial Empire.
"Brother Tao, you don't have to blame yourself too much, tell me, how do you want to cooperate?"
Jin Xiaoqiang saw that Tao Leran was still in that mood of chagrin and self-blame, and couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted, so he persuaded him a few words.
"Hey! Xiaoqiang, you also know how important the Hongqi series is to our FAW. We have also tried to introduce some advanced technology from foreign-funded enterprises, but these straights will make money from us
Okay, but when it comes to transferring technology, they start to fucking play deaf and dumb, and I've negotiated with them a few times, and every result. Germans, Japanese, Americans, all fucking all the good stuff. ”
Tao Leran thought of the previous negotiations with foreigners, and his heart was even more breathless.
"The Hongqi series of sedans used to be the pride of our Celestial Empire people, but now that he has declined, every one of our Celestial Empire automakers is responsible. Now to re-establish this brand, each of us Celestial Autobots, even more
Plus is responsible. This time, we are determined to re-establish this brand. But Xiaoqiang, you also know the significance of this brand car, once he is born, it must be a high-end car, but we
FAW's current technical conditions, you may also know, the current production of engines, as well as transmission parts, have to rely on direct imports from foreign countries, and then take them back for assembly, independent production capacity, that is nonsense. But in you
After Huayang Power announced the latest engine technology, we wondered, if we can hit this powertrain on our Hongqi car? Isn't that a perfect match? ”
Tao Leran began to talk eloquently, and Jin Xiaoqiang also nodded while listening.
Indeed, if Hongqi can be matched with their ECOBOOST powertrain, it is indeed a reborn change, this powertrain, which can be said to be one of the highest levels in the world.
"And what do you mean?"
"Xiaoqiang, you see if this will work, if you Huayang Power is willing, then we can cooperate to set up a company to make the brand of Hongqi, and the new models of the Hongqi series will be completely designed by you
In fact, you are now a famous automobile design master with a reputation overseas, and we at FAW can definitely trust you. POWERTRAIN WITH YOUR ECOBOOST POWERTRAIN, AS FOR THE REST OF THE MANPOWER, THE VENUE, ETC
We'll provide it all, what do you think? ”
Tao Leran was also generous, and directly said his thoughts.
After listening to this, Jin Xiaoqiang was indeed very interested, if he could cooperate with FAW, it would indeed bring a lot of benefits to Huayang Power.
You must know that although FAW is now inferior to SAIC in terms of sales volume, this company, which is also the eldest son of the Republic's automobile industry, has a very strong influence in many aspects.
And the most important thing is that doing a good job in the brand of Hongqi also has a very strong attraction for Jin Xiaoqiang!
Hongqi car, once the pride of the Celestial Empire, now the pain in the hearts of the Celestial Empire, if this brand can be resurrected in front of the Celestial Empire consumers, it must have a very strong brand appeal.
And compared with the Qoros series of Qoros 9 specially prepared for provincial and ministerial-level senior officials, if this red flag wants to enter the eyes of these provincial and ministerial-level senior officials, it should be much easier.
"Hmmm! This proposal is indeed very attractive, if Brother Tao cooperates, how will the proportion of shares be distributed? ”
"How about a 55 split?". )
