[299] A national car that was born 30 years ahead of schedule

Xiaoqiang was listening to the phone on the side, and when he saw that Zhang Xiang had solved the source of the carburetor car for him, he was overjoyed and said: "Xiexie, Mr. Zhang, now I have got the government official car that I am waiting for over there." ”

Zhang Xiang was stunned when he heard this, he had already turned off the phone speakerphone, couldn't take it back, and was stuck on the phone.

"Official car! …… Mr. Cao, are you purchasing official cars for Africa?! …… Use...... Pride ......"

Xiao Qiang, who didn't have much research on the model, didn't feel that something was wrong, and said happily: "Pride! What a domineering name! That's nice! I seem to have seen this Geely car, high-end atmosphere and grade! How do you sell 29900? Carburetor cars are really cheap huh......"

Zhang Xiang's sweat beads were about to drip down, and he said in his heart, "Who are you sacred?" I didn't even see what Nima looked like, and I started to be happy! Are you sure that if you buy this car, you won't be shaved in the face by the black civil servants?

"Mr. Cao, you ...... You may have some misunderstandings, pride...... Pride in her...... She's a hatchback ......"

Xiaoqiang was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Proud?" I've seen it, it's beautiful, this car is actually less than 30,000, I really didn't expect it......"

Before he finished speaking, Xiaoqiang was stunned and immediately felt wrong!

Zhang Xiang saw Xiao Qiang's speech, knowing that Xiao Qiang must have felt that something was wrong, and comforted with sympathy: "Mr. Cao, you probably confused Emgrand with pride......

Xiaoqiang reacted immediately, and suddenly flashed in his mind a Geely national car that looks like Audi on the front and Alto on the side of various potholes and dirt roads that is active in small cities and rural areas in China.

Xiaoqiang felt a cold swish on his spine, and he said embarrassedly: "It's that Audi Alto hybrid ......"

Zhang Xiang nodded more and more sympathetically: "It is indeed a bit of a pride to be used as an official car...... I'm afraid the people of Africa won't agree to ......"

Xiao Qiang's heart was already half cold, and he really couldn't imagine the chairman's tall body sitting in pride.

But now there is no way out, besides, even if the chairman and the prime minister take this car to pick up foreign guests, the civil servants of the whole country can always sit, right? What a simple thing, how good is such a money-saving official car, isn't it just missing an ass!

As soon as Xiao Qiang thought of this, a pride of not admitting defeat suddenly surged in his heart, and he boasted and said: "Right now, you have to promise and promise, and if you don't agree, you have to agree!" Unless you can help me find another carburetor sedan. ”

As soon as Zhang Xiang heard this, his face became bitter, and he said: "Xiali and Jetta's carburetor models have long been stopped, and now if you want to buy a domestic carburetor car, you can only find Geely, so you have to hurry, and people are also saying that they will stop production." ”

Xiaoqiang smiled bitterly, knowing in his heart that there was no choice in front of him.

"Mr. Zhang, you are engaged in jishu, do you say that this pride can be pulled into a sedana?"

Zhang Xiang saw Xiaoqiang's appearance of a contract in his hand, and knew that this Mr. Cao must have a relationship with an African customer, otherwise how dare he fool people with pride as a business car? Zhang Xiang nodded and said: "It can be pulled, as long as it is a car, it can be pulled!" Now there is computer-aided design, pulling a piece of cake, but the more the body is changed, the more forging dies need to be re-customized, and a set of steel plate forging dies will be hundreds of thousands! As for the chassis of pride, it is okay, she is originally a universal imitation of the Xiali chassis, and the Xiali can be pulled into a sedan, and the pride is of course no problem. It's just that the power is a little smaller, and the carburetor engine with a displacement of one liter is only 52 horsepower. ”

Xiaoqiang was reassured when he heard this data, this Nima brought 1950 is really rebellious! Isn't the 0.7-liter Volkswagen Beetle of the 80s only 34 horsepower? Besides, in terms of safety and driving pleasure, no matter how bad the pride is, it is definitely much better than the Beetle in the seventies and eighties with only one door and the rear of the engine.

He immediately got up and shook hands with Zhang Xiang enthusiastically and said goodbye: "Mr. Zhang, thanks to you today, otherwise I would really be blind, this car is developing too fast, you look at this carburetor car, say no, it's gone!" ”

Zhang Xiang said with a smile: "You are a friend introduced by Mr. Guan, this little favor should be, if it weren't for the fact that our Volkswagen has stopped producing carburetor Poussin, I won't push you out to other companies, hehe." ”

Xiaoqiang smiled: "I'm just going to be in front of me, and in the future, we still have a chance to cooperate." I'm leaving, I have to go to Geely immediately. ”

Zhang Xiang said slightly apologetically: "Xiexie, your understanding, come, I'll send you out." ”

Leaving Shanghai Volkswagen, Xiaoqiang went straight to Geely Automobile's Ningbo Assembly Plant, and Zhang Xiang and Geely Automobile's Jishu Director Lu Qifu agreed to let Xiaoqiang go directly to the Ningbo factory to find him.

Seeing Lu Qifu, Xiaoqiang didn't say a word, and directly signed the contract for 500 luxury cars at the price of 27,000 cars.

After signing the contract, Xiaoqiang's first sentence was: "Mr. Lu, I will pick up the car now and send it directly to my Nandu warehouse." ”

Lu Qifu saw Xiaoqiang signing the order boldly, and said happily: "No problem, the maximum annual output of our Ningbo branch can reach 160,000 units, although there is no full production at the moment, but only 500 vehicles is only two days' production capacity, there are ready-made cars ready to be sent to Vietnam in the reservoir area, I will allocate 500 units to you from the inside." You were introduced by Mr. Zhang, he is a great talent in the field of automobile jishu in my country, and I must give him this face, hehe. ”

Xiaoqiang hurriedly took advantage of the situation to get on the donkey and said, "Mr. Lu, can I visit your factory?" ”

Lu Qifu's purpose in coming to the Ningbo factory this time was not to make a small profit for Xiaoqiang's 500 units, and he didn't know who Xiaoqiang was. The purpose of Lu Qifulai is to make advance plans with Geely's Jishu personnel, so that after the production of a batch of export carburetor cars is completed, the production line will be modified as quickly as possible and the production of EFI cars will be immediately switched to production.

"Okay, isn't this a matter of one sentence, I've been busy with the production line transformation and pre-installation program in the factory these days, if you are interested, come with me."

Xiaoqiang, accompanied by Lu Qifu, visited the production line, and suddenly asked: "This line seems to be a product of Nandu Zhenchuan Machinery Factory, right?" ”

Lu Qifu was surprised: "Mr. Cao also has research on this? ”

Xiaoqiang said: "I purchased an identical line, but it was originally purchased for the assembly of trucks, and now it is shelved in Africa, this line consists of ten assembly lines, and a car can be released about every five minutes, Mr. Lu, I am not wrong." ”

Lu Qifu smiled: "Yes, I didn't think that Mr. Cao, you still built a car?" These assembly lines are similar, our country's labor is cheap, foreigners three or two lines to solve the process, we remove the expensive automation process, with a ten lines to complete, the cost is lower than him. ”

Xiaoqiang had an idea in his heart, he built a large-scale factory in 1950, and the workers in these factories didn't need a kind of national car to travel after they became rich? Perhaps now is the right time to introduce a whole trolley production line. If it drags on, wait until the future procurement, in 2011, all the domestic carburetor car factories here have all been converted to production, and the cost of introduction will be even higher at that time.

Thinking of this, Xiaoqiang said: "Mr. Lu, I'll discuss something with you, you see that I already have a production line horizontally and vertically, and it's no problem to produce 50,000 units a year." And your Geely side is also about to change production, why don't you give me all the production equipment of Haoqing, and let me open a carburetor car factory in Africa. ”

Mr. Lu was surprised: "All the equipment? ”

Xiaoqiang nodded and said: "I have a ready-made assembly line, and I want to localize all the rest of the parts and engine casting, isn't it all equipment." ”

Lu Qifu stopped when he heard this, looked at Xiaoqiang seriously from head to toe and said, "Mr. Cao, you're not joking with me, are you?" Do you really want to eat it all? Haoqing has a lot of parts and components that are produced by other related companies, and we Geely only give quality standards and jishu parameters, such as the interior of the car, which we do not produce. ”

Xiaoqiang nodded and said: "As long as the key body, chassis, engine powertrain, and production equipment are available, I can think of another way for the interior or something." ”

Mr. Lu said: "There are some parts in the engine powertrain, such as low-end gears, bearings, etc., which we do not produce. ”

Xiaoqiang smiled: "I know, those are not difficult, I can solve them, if I can't solve them, I will order them from China, you can say whether to sell them or not." ”

Lu Qifuxin said that the sale of the car is coming, and the co-author is now going to buy a full set of production equipment for the whole vehicle.

"Mr. Cao, you have thought about it, this is not a joke! I estimate that the full set of purchases plus the transfer of jishu is not more than a billion can not be taken, although the pride of this car in the developed countries does not have much jishu content, but the general small countries can never be made, you see like Vietnam, those countries, until now still rely on imports. Some of the key jishu that have already been conquered in our country are still stuck in the country. ”

Xiaoqiang smiled: "It's nothing more than the high cost of production, but my customer very much wants to localize a national car, to carburetor, I think it's too troublesome to customize a full set of equipment, it's better to find you Geely, and buy the ready-made replacement equipment." ”

Lu Qifu nodded and said, "I can't make the decision on this matter, so I'll help you ask the head office now." ”

After Lu Qifu called for instructions, Geely immediately invited Xiaoqiang to the headquarters for an interview.

Xiaoqiang had to go to Hangzhou non-stop.

As soon as I heard that Xiaoqiang wanted to purchase a full set of Geely Pride production equipment, Geely was also very surprised. In recent years, only China's civilian automobile industry has purchased jishu and patents from foreign countries, and I have not heard of any foreigners who want to buy China's civil car production lines.

Because people just can't build it, they won't buy Chinese equipment to produce high-cost and low-competitive models, and those small countries won't come to buy even if they can't make a carburetor version. The reason is very simple, the product lags behind the mainstream of the market, the market is not large, and the cost of manufacturing is higher than the Chinese products with complete supporting production bases of various accessories, and the competition is not Chinese goods.

As soon as Li Shufu, president of Geely, heard that there was such a good thing coming to the door, he personally received Xiaoqiang.
