Chapter 168: Actually, no one is stupid

The big boss sets the direction, and the people below will do things easily.

I spent the morning in the conference room, and then visited the site in the afternoon.

In the end, the teams of the two sides had an in-depth exchange, and a cooperation that would leave important traces in the history of the development of Huaxia Automobile was kicked off.

With such a cooperation project, Nanshan R&D Center immediately added more than a dozen project teams.

I had been researching parts such as steering gear, steering column, instrument, and DA as before, and immediately began to recruit more personnel.

With the blessing of the achievements of the 6AT automatic transmission, Nanshan's reputation in the automotive industry is much stronger than last year.

At least when campus recruitment is carried out this year, the students of Lingnan University of Technology will not ignore it.

Through the efforts and screening of the personnel department, the number of employees recruited by the school has also increased from 200 last year to 500.

Of course, this year's school recruitment is relatively smooth, in addition to the increasing strength of Nanshan, the employment pressure after the expansion is also a contributing factor.

Since '98, colleges and universities have expanded their enrollment, and by 2002 they will graduate.

Now it's the first semester of my senior year, which is the peak time to find a job.

Everyone's choice is obviously not as many as before.

"Mr. Cao, there are so many domestic companies engaged in automobiles, and even the independent brands of large enterprises such as Chuncheng Automobile Group and Xifeng Automobile Group are not very good."

"Now a new BYD in the industry, will it be successful?"

"For the sake of BYD's car-making project, we have expanded the research of so many parts at once, and when the time comes, manpower and material resources will be invested, and there may not be any gains."

Zeng Tingting has always dared to say it in front of Cao Yang.

Nanshan has strategic cooperation with BYD, and she supports it.

After all, many of Nanshan's products really need a platform to carry and an opportunity to prove their strength.

But adding some additional parts to the research, she thinks it is very unnecessary.

This kind of investment, if you can't get results, will be in vain.

"In addition to BYD, aren't Great Wall Motors and Changan Automobile also discussing more in-depth cooperation with us?"

"Besides, although we do not have strategic cooperation with Chuncheng Automobile and Xifeng Motor, it does not mean that our parts will not have the opportunity to be installed in their cars."

"As long as the product is used well in other models, it is very likely that they will come to us to cooperate with us."

Cao Yang is familiar with the style of doing things of these large enterprises.

In his previous life, he himself had worked in such a company.

There are many obstacles to pioneering and innovative things in large enterprises.

But if there are already successful cases, and everyone has adopted them, it will be much easier.

Many of Nanshan's new parts are obviously not suitable for promotion in these large enterprises, but to find independent brands such as BYD and Great Wall to cooperate.

"That's what I said, but in that case, wouldn't all the costs and pressures be on ourselves?"

"At that time, our products have not been researched, and BYD only needs to find other manufacturers to cooperate."

"They won't bear a penny of the cost we put in in advance."

Obviously, Zeng Tingting has always looked down on BYD.

There is no way, if you are engaged in battery research, the other party is a senior, and it is worth learning from Nanshan.

But in terms of other parts, it is completely Nanshan himself who is fighting alone and helping BYD build cars.

"Even if there is no BYD, we have to study these parts."

"It's just speeding up a bit."

"So you don't have to be too limited to our strategic cooperation with BYD."

Cao Yang has already decided something, and it is obviously not something that the little secretary will change in a few words.

"Our first phase of the project is about to be completed."

"We have to keep up with the orders from Ford and General Motors."

"Volkswagen also has to find a way to make a breakthrough in the 6AT."

"As for the domestic independent brands that have achieved cooperation intentions, they are trying to find ways to further expand the market."

"It's best to keep our capacity tight all the time, so that we can maintain a fast-paced expansion."

With the emergence of 6AT, Cao Yang feels that it is time for Nanshan to enter the fast lane of development.

"I understand that the new head of the Ministry of Personnel and General Affairs has been put in place, and there has been some progress in recruiting assistants for you."

"When the time comes, I'll hand over the work and run every customer well."

Zeng Tingting saw that Cao Yang didn't want to discuss the cooperation with BYD anymore, so she had to give up.

Fortunately, Nanshan now has the big killer of 6AT, and the future is bright.

In a short period of time, a number of manpower and material resources have been invested in various parts, which will not bring any obstacles to the development of Nanshan.

……

When Nanshan is constantly discussing cooperation projects with BYD, BYD is also in full swing discussing car manufacturing projects.

Among them, the cooperation with Nanshan will inevitably be the focus of discussion.

After all, according to the current situation, Nanshan will be BYD's largest supplier.

Not only automatic transmissions but also a number of other parts will be supplied.

"Mr. Wang, we have completely disassembled the Accord 2.4L luxury version of this model, and the most critical engine and gearbox are basically determined to use the 2.4L naturally aspirated engine and Nanshan's 6AT automatic transmission."

"At present, most of the models of our own brands are MT manual transmissions, and we can make our new car the first mid-level car with 6AT as standard in all models."

Liang Chuanqing focused on the project during this time.

This new model is the key to BYD's transformation.

"Honda's engine technology is very good, we follow the Accord's 2.4L engine, and the direction is naturally no problem."

"But the timing control system and ECU inside are very critical, do you think Nanshan can handle it?"

After visiting Nanshan, Wang Fu had a deeper understanding of the strength of Nanshan.

However, the engine is the hard wound of the Chinese automobile industry, and no manufacturer has done a good job so far.

As a key part of the engine, he is naturally worried about whether Nanshan can handle it.

If BYD produces its own 2.4L engine, the fuel consumption is much higher than that of the Accord, and then the noise is much louder, and the durability is much worse, it will definitely be criticized.

"Nanshan has very rich experience in machine tool CNC systems, and even Siemens and Fanuc have been taught a lesson by them."

"In addition, the TCU on the gearbox is also independently developed by them, and I think the possibility of ECU being able to be produced is still very high."

"As for the parts related to the timing system, although they have no experience, it is obviously more appropriate to leave them to the ECU manufacturer to develop these parts than to find other manufacturers to cooperate."

"After all, many of the working principles and logic of this system are closely related to the control logic of the ECU."

"The rest is nothing more than the production of hardware."

"I'm not worried about that."

Liang Chuanqing is in charge of research and development.

It is precisely in this way that he knows better how strong Nanshan's current R&D strength is.

"In that case, then you can move forward according to the current plan."

"If you encounter any difficulties in the middle, feel free to come to me."

Wang Fu didn't have a better choice now, so he also agreed to Liang Chuanqing's proposal.
