"Yes, we can make adjustments to our models according to the price you have in mind, for example, we can take some of the technology on the engine down, so that it can also meet your needs? I just don't know, Major Pan, what is the approximate price and quantity of the military vehicles you purchased this time? ”
The price is low, of course, it is necessary to reduce the configuration, but it doesn't matter, the V6 engine developed by Jin Xiaoqiang, even if there is no direct injection in the cylinder, and the support of continuous variable valve technology or something, the power of the naturally aspirated version alone is not small, and it can fully cope with the big guy of this tough guy.
Before that, the reason why he planned to equip these two tough guys with an Ecoboost engine and a dual-clutch transmission was mainly aimed at customers in the high-end market who like to go around in the wild for fun.
Some rich people like to drive alone in the wilderness, many of which have no roads, or are potholes and rotten roads, so the power of the engine and the surname may be higher, so he will equip these two cars with such configurations.
But if the leaders of this unit choose such a car, then how many leaders of the army will often drive to the wilderness?
Of course, it is not excluded that those leaders who like to go out into the field to do 'sports' and check the shock springs of the car have special needs in this regard, but after all, such leaders are also in the minority.
Most of the leaders' travel should still be mainly concentrated in places with good road conditions, so as long as the comfort of the vehicle is ensured, then the high-power engine is secondary.
"Well, our initial purchase intention this time is one hundred, if the use is ideal, then we will have the best order in the back, our entire Northeast Military Region purchase volume, probably not less than 1,500 taels, of course, this will cover the two models of your tough guy car series. But in terms of the average price, we hope that it can be controlled at about 250,000 per vehicle, and Mr. Jin, you also know that the army is not a rich man after all......"
Major Pan's words were also very helpless, Jin Xiaoqiang could understand after listening to it, how many troops are there in the entire Northeast Military Region? And how many leaders?
It seems that these cars are not bought back, all of them are used by senior leaders, and it seems that they have the intention of delegating them to the troops at all levels below, so in this case, there is no need to be so mean.
"Okay, no problem, so be it! We can omit the direct injection technology in the cylinder, and the dual variable valve timing technology, after all, these technologies are developed for fuel economy, and the way your army drives, in my understanding, doesn't seem to care about fuel consumption, hehe, so that we can keep this rotor turbine that can increase the power of the engine, and the transmission also switches to a manual transmission, so that you can save a lot of costs. Of course, we can also make adjustments to the interior of the car according to your needs, remove some unnecessary equipment, in this way, you can greatly save costs, I estimate that as long as you make some fine-tuning, these two cars, because it will meet the requirements of your troops. ”
Jin Xiaoqiang thought for a while, and then said to Pan Yifan, and after Pan Yifan listened to Jin Xiaoqiang's reply, he also felt very satisfied, at least the sincerity of Huayang Power was quite sufficient.
To be honest, at the beginning, Jin Xiaoqiang really misunderstood her, you must know that the current army is indeed different from before, in this era of great mechanization, and in the era of efficiency in everything, even if it is in the company below, there is no one who cannot be equipped with two vehicles?
Now the following companies are used by the company commanders and instructors are all Mitsubishi Pajero, and such a car does not even dare to guarantee safety, and it is time to fully consider the replacement.
Now Jin Xiaoqiang's attitude is very cooperative with their work, so she is very happy in her heart, after all, this is a major matter related to the entire military region, if it is not done well, then she will be the one who will go back and scold people.
"Okay, I think this is very feasible, but when will you be able to get a sample car?"
This time it was not Pan Yifan who spoke, but the middle-aged officer who had been talking to Mr. Liu Hong very well just now.
"Who is this?"
"Oh! Haha, look at it, I just met an old friend and forgot to introduce myself when I was chatting happily, hello Mr. Jin, I am Qian Longjiang, director of the Technical Department of the Logistics General Armament Department of the Northeast Military Region. ”
The white-faced middle-aged officer, like a scholar, stood up and walked to Jin Xiaoqiang's side, stretched out his hand to shake hands with him, and Master Liu Hong also followed him with a smile and said to Jin Xiaoqiang.
"Xiaoqiang, this Major Qian is my old friend, we participated in many national technical research projects together, this little money, but he is also a great character!"
"That's a real blessing, a blessing, it's a pleasure to meet you."
As soon as Jin Xiaoqiang heard what Old Man Liu said, he immediately warmed up with this technical official.
"Haha, it's Old Man Liu who is too polite, I'm just a junior compared to him, and I'm even more ashamed of myself compared to you! Hahaha! ”
Qian Longjiang is very modest, and he really has a bookish taste.
You can't let people stand and talk like this, Jin Xiaoqiang hurriedly beckoned people to sit down, and Pan Yifan was responsible for understanding the situation from him and negotiating with him, but when it came to the specific technical details, it was up to this Major Qian Longjiang to get the idea.
After all, this Major Qian is a very knowledgeable expert, and in the conversation with Jin Xiaoqiang, this Major Qian paid more attention to Jin Xiaoqiang's technical information about their model.
From research and development to final formation, this tough guy can be said to have been created by Jin Xiaoqiang with one hand and one foot, so he is very clear about every detail.
The initial concept of this car, was 07-08 years in several auto shows at the BAIC Group launched BAIC B40, and later for various reasons this car has been in a state of dystocia, until Jin Xiaoqiang through the rebirth, this car also failed to interview.
Jin Xiaoqiang saw this car at the auto show, was fascinated by the shape and temperament of this car, and later before planning to design this car, for fear that the Americans would accuse them of plagiarism, Jin Xiaoqiang asked for the surname of the five-door version of the Sahara launched by Jeep in 08 to copy it.
BAIC's B40 was originally imitating Jeep's Wrangler, and Jeep's five-door version of the Sahara is simply a Wrangler's leather car, so these two cars are originally born from the same root in terms of blood.
While Jin Xiaoqiang is creating this tough guy series, he also learns from each other's strengths and weaknesses of the two cars, such as the design of the headlights and grille of the B40, and brings the design of the five-door version of the Sahara, and at the same time, the rivet leakage that can highlight the rough and heroic atmosphere of the Sahara, as well as the stout door handles and other designs, are brought to the B40.
Therefore, once these two cars were born, they were excellent works that combined the strengths of the two worlds, and although they did not attract the attention of Europeans too much after their debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show, they have attracted considerable attention in the Celestial Empire and the United States.
Now the military came to the door, obviously attracted by the tough and rugged appearance of this car series, and felt that the temperament of this car was very in line with the temperament of the military, and the powertrain of Huayang Power is currently well-known in the world, so people will choose Huayang Power, a domestic brand, to test the waters.
Director Qian is worthy of being a technical official, and the questions he asked are very professional, such as whether the structure of the body is load-bearing or non-load-bearing, and how the chassis of the car is adjusted, how is the surname, how is the surname of the body, how much is the weight, how big is the fuel tank, what is the self-endurance, especially in the harsh natural environment, and a series of issues that military vehicles are concerned about.
Jin Xiaoqiang gave Director Qian a detailed answer one by one, and Director Qian was very satisfied after listening to it, and finally asked them if they had a sample car now.
Of course they have such a car Jin Xiaoqiang, and there are no less than hundreds, in fact, as early as the beginning of the tough guy series, Jin Xiaoqiang considered the problem of opening the grade, this car can be equipped with a luxurious ecoboost engine, but it can also only be equipped with a turbocharged engine.
After all, if it is equipped with an Ecoboost engine, the market price of this car will definitely not be less than 400,000, but there are many consumers on the market who can't afford such a price, and Jin Xiaoqiang They don't plan to let go of the low-end market of hardcore SUVs, so they have been developing a tough guy with a turbocharged engine model for a long time.
Now this low-end version of the tough guy has already entered the road test stage, and it will soon be launched on the market.
Jin Xiaoqiang didn't say much, so he took Director Qian and them to the test site in the factory to test the car.
The V6 engine with a single low-inertia rotor turbocharger can provide 300 horsepower, and the car is also equipped with Toyota's EBD braking force distribution system, as well as TRAC's traction distribution system, as well as the body stop system, and is equipped with a five-speed hand-speed transmission that is copied from Volkswagen's MQ250......
After Director Qian got off the test drive, he was very satisfied with this lowest-end configuration tough guy i model.
"Xiaoqiang, I am very satisfied with this car, and now I have a question, do you have any intention of developing a diesel engine model with higher horsepower?"
After Director Qian got out of the car, he pulled Jin Xiaoqiang aside, and then asked in a whisper.
"Yes, of course, but I haven't scheduled work yet."
"Then if our military needs it, do you have the possibility of developing high-power diesel engines and new models in advance?"
"What, you mean ......"
