Lin Qiangsheng followed Qiu Ke and others to the SAIC plant in North Putuo and watched the production line of Santana. He found that the workers were producing the cars entirely on the same equipment as they were in the early 70s, the production line relied on a high proportion of labor, and there were many German technicians in the factory who were giving on-site instructions to the workers.
In fact, the Germans are still very responsible, in order to assemble a qualified car, the German side sent a total of 200 technicians to SAIC employees for training.
Jiang Tingan was in charge of receiving his inspection in the past few days, and asked with a smile: "Mr. Lin, what do you think of the level of equipment provided by the German side to the SAIC Factory?" โ
Lin Qiangsheng said with emotion: "This is our technology five years ago, and many foreign car companies have eliminated this level of equipment." โ
"Oh, is that so?" Jiang Tingan was a little surprised, this young man was not polite at all, and it took SAIC to get these equipment back.
Fang Hong said a little angrily: "This production line is directly dismantled and shipped back from the original factory in Germany, at least it will not be too far behind!" โ
Lin Qiangsheng looked at him and said: "Not necessarily, I heard some news, because of the policy problems in South Africa, the Germans closed the South African factory and shipped the equipment there to China, and the Germans' overseas factories are already backward than their own country!" โ
"We don't know about this, but this line is really eliminated by the Germans." Qiu Ke said, he lifted his glasses and asked Lin Qiangsheng: "Mr. Lin, how is your production equipment, is it close to the international level?" โ
Lin Qiangsheng nodded smugly: "The equipment owned by several of our automobile companies definitely exceeds the world average, and is even close to the mainstream Japanese and German companies!" โ
He said to Qiu Ke and others: "In 1950~1961, the second president of Toyota, Ishida Keizo, put forward an important theory, called the first master of equipment. Righteousness!
According to my understanding, equipment should occupy the first important position in industrial production. Since the establishment of our automobile factory, we have always tried our best to obtain the most advanced automobile manufacturing equipment in the world. Over the years, we have continued to improve the equipment, always keep up with the latest international trends, and purchase the latest foreign achievements on the technology that we cannot reach temporarily. For example, the welding manipulator, which we are currently using is the third generation of products, which can be adjusted in eight directions, with more accurate positioning and faster movement. In automobile production, we also use automation to the greatest extent, reducing the number of labor, reducing the defect rate, and increasing the quality of the car! โ
Qiu Ke and Fang Hong understood what Lin Qiangsheng said, but they both felt that the scale of such an investment must be very large, and Jiang Tingan asked inexplicably: "Machines can increase product quality, can't they be manual?" โ
Lin Qiangsheng explained to him: "In large-scale industrial production, workers are the real screws, repeating a product a day, thousands of times of repeated labor, people will inevitably slack off." And the machine will not be like this, its action, every time is computer positioning, the biggest reduction of mistakes, and not easy to make mistakes, so that the cumulative is a great progress, the quality is indeed a lot better than manual, Japanese car companies do this! โ
"Oh, the Japanese do the same!" Jiang Tingan heard that the Japanese were doing the same, so he nodded: "It turns out that you are developing like this, automated production improves product quality, and it is the first time I have heard such a statement!" โ
He smiled and shook his head: "Although I know this advantage, but at the moment this model is not suitable for China's national conditions, so many of us still can't use it, and it is too far away to replace manual labor with machine qรฌ people!" โ
"The investment is also huge!" Fang Hong said with some envy.
Several people continued to visit, and then they went out of the factory gate and came to a large wasteland on the border between SAIC and Jiading County in a car.
Qiu Ke pointed to this large area of land and said to Lin Qiangsheng: "At present, our factory is discussing with Jiading to allocate this land to SAIC as a new factory, and the plan has been reported to the city. โ
Lin Qiangsheng thinks this location is also good: "This place is big enough, and next to Jiading is Baoshan, where there is Baosteel, enough to invest in a new automobile factory here!" โ
"Mr. Lin, what kind of model are you going to put on the horse?" Qiu Ke asked with interest.
Lin Qiangsheng said: "A low-end car, just like the Jetta, your Santana focuses on high-end and high-end cars, so that the product grade will distance itself and reduce competition!" โ
Qiu Ke was very interested in the low- and mid-range models, asking, "Which car exactly?" โ
Lin Qiangsheng said: "I haven't designed this yet, and it may take about half a year to finalize it." โ
Jiang Tingan feels that Lin Qiangsheng, a young man, is a bit too big, you don't have a specific model, so you dare to promise to let SAIC produce low- and mid-range cars. And Lin Qiangsheng has no basis for empty words, in case the automobile factory can't be built, what a big deal this is, how can it be so so-so!
On the contrary, Qiu Ke said very happily: "I heard that Mr. Lin is an outstanding car designer, and you designed several popular models in the domestic market, such as the Jetta, Accord, and Passata. If you can design a model for our old SAIC factory, then we can do trial production. โ
Lin Qiangsheng directly shook hands with Qiu Ke and said with a smile: "A word is a certainty, I will design the model in half a year, and you will be satisfied with it when the time comes." โ
The two sides agreed that Lin Qiangsheng would invest in an automobile assembly line and several parts factories, while Qiu Ke would be in charge of negotiating with Jiading County to expand the construction area of the factory, and the two sides initially decided to each take a 50% stake in the new factory.
"I didn't expect Lin Qiangsheng to be so easy to talk to, he is much easier to deal with than the Germans!" Qiu Ke returned to SAIC, and General Manager Fang Hong immediately rushed over to inquire about the situation, and when he learned that Lin Qiangsheng had agreed to invest $50 million to build a factory and automobile production line in Jiading, he said.
Qiu Ke nodded: "In the future, we will cooperate with Dongxing Group in many aspects, and strive to open a breakthrough in them and improve the quality of our parts, which is also a feasible way of development!" โ
Fang Hong laughed and said: "The west is not bright, the east is bright, but the Germans didn't expect us to find a good opponent for them." โ
Qiu Ke agreed and said: "Yes, don't tell them the news now, we have to catch the Germans off guard." โ
Lin Qiangsheng and Jiang Tingan took the car back to the city, and Secretary Jia said to him: "Mr. Lin, it's almost noon now, the city has arranged a hotel room for you, we might as well have a simple light meal, and I will accompany you to inspect the districts in the afternoon to see where it is suitable for construction and transformation." โ
Lin Qiangsheng said to Jiang Tingan: "You are too polite, I have a place to live, but I don't have to move around." โ
Jiang Tingan said: "Then let's have a light meal, this time we have to invite anyway, and do our best to be a landlord." โ
Lin Qiangsheng nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, let's go to the City God Temple, I heard that the crab roe buns there are good." โ
Jiang Tingan looked at the time and said, "Then we have to hurry up, the best Nanxiang soup dumplings in the City God Temple have to be queued." โ
"Master Li, go to the City God Temple in Huangpu!" He said to the driver, who said yes, and the car headed straight south.
Wandering on the old. In the city of the sea, from north to south, Lin Qiangsheng has the leisure to appreciate the city.
It should be said that in the mid-80s. The sea is still very old, except for a few avenues, full of dilapidated old alleys and narrow and dirty alleys, which are different from the new ones that came in a few decades. The sea is very different!
Passing through the Shikumen area, Lin Qiangsheng looked at these unique grottoes, and his memory was like an open floodgate, which made him remember a lot of things at once. The objects of the sea will be transformed into a unique scenery in the future. The sea is quite famous for its special attractions.
Shikumen is on. The unique dwellings of the sea were once occupied at the peak of the period. Sixty percent of the houses of sea residents. In the early 90's, most of the houses were demolished, but after re-planning and design, the new combination of East and West has a strong upper strength. The sea features a shikumen reformed on. Another cultural treasure of the sea.
Shikumen, on. Haixintiandi!
Lin Qiangsheng suddenly seemed to have discovered a new world, staring at these old buildings, he suddenly remembered, the Xintiandi project established after the transformation of Shikumen, it is a very prosperous tourist location, he also came to travel in his previous life, and he only remembered it now, this is a very good real estate project, and Xintiandi has hotels, residential projects, and sightseeing corridors, and the number of tourists visiting wรจn a year is astronomical, of course, it is also very profitable!
He became interested, and immediately said to Jiang Tingan and the driver: "Let's find a restaurant around here, I'm afraid there is a long queue for soup dumplings in the City God Temple now, let's find a restaurant here to eat casually, I'll treat you." โ
Jiang Tingan said in surprise: "How can it be done, there are no good hotels in this area, let's go to the City God Temple!" โ
Lin Qiangsheng smiled and waved his hand again and again and said: "No, no, I won't go to the City God Temple, there are many people there, let's take a look here, I like these grotto arches on the street." โ
"Oh? Then let's go around. Jiang Tingan looked at the dilapidated grotto houses on both sides of the street, and hoped that Lin Qiangsheng had found any investment value, and he also decided to follow and take a look. (To be continued.) )
