Chapter 11 Car Dream

When Jin Xiaoqiang opened his eyes, the sky outside was already completely dark. He raised his wrist and looked at his watch. It was already past five o'clock in the evening.

He has not returned home since he came out yesterday afternoon. Thinking of this, Jin Xiaoqiang quickly took out his mobile phone and called home.

"You kid, why don't you answer the phone? Where have you been these past two days?"

The mother's voice on the phone was very anxious. When Jin Xiaoqiang just picked up the phone, he saw a lot of missed calls. At this time, he quickly explained to his mother.

"Mom, Xiaoliang came back yesterday. We were together. After drinking too much, we stayed in the school dormitory. School has not started for the past two days. I stayed here with him for two days, otherwise he would be the only one to blame.

It’s deserted, I’ll go back the day after tomorrow.”

"You said you are such a troublesome kid. You've just recovered from a cold and you run out to drink a lot. Look at you! Sooner or later you'll have to drink like your dad and become a big drinker."

Li Shulan complained on the phone that if Jin Xiaoqiang ten years ago had heard his mother and herself nagging like this, he would have been impatient and might have found an excuse to hang up the phone.

But now that his mental age is already thirty years old, when he hears his mother's nagging, he feels a lot more cordial. This is family love. In this world, the only one who cares about you selflessly is your mother.

"Well, don't worry, Mom. I'm sensible. It's nothing serious. I'll only stay for two days."

Li Shulan also knew that her son was now a young man, already in his twenties, and it was hard to say more, so she gave Jin Xiaoqiang a few more words before hanging up the phone.

Jin Xiaoqiang hung up the phone and looked back. At this time, Liu Xiaoliang was lying on the bed next to him, looking at him with his eyes open!

"Are you awake? Are you feeling better?"

Jin Xiaoqiang smiled and asked Liu Xiaoliang.

"Well, it's much better, but my body still hurts a little."

Liu Xiaoliang was lying on the bunk opposite and replied that if he hadn't rushed up to him at the end of the fight in the morning, Jin Xiaoqiang would probably be lying in the intensive treatment ward by now.

Jin Xiaoqiang walked over and poured him a glass of water, then asked.

"Are you hungry? How about we go out to eat something?"

"It's okay. I'm not very hungry. What about you? By the way, your wound is nothing serious, right? When I saw the grandson hurting your hand this morning, my eyes turned red."

Liu Xiaoliang suddenly remembered Jin Xiaoqiang's scratched hand and asked aloud.

"It's nothing serious. It's just a small hole. It's not deep. It's been wrapped up now. It'll be fine in two days."

Jin Xiaoqiang waved his left hand and said to Liu Xiaoliang with a smile.

"That's good, that's good..."

When Liu Xiaoliang heard that Jin Xiaoqiang was fine, he felt relieved. The two brothers lay on the bunk, and Jin Xiaoqiang took out his cigarettes. The two of them smoked and started chatting in the mist.

After chatting for a while, Liu Xiaoliang suddenly asked Jin Xiaoqiang.

"Xiaoqiang, after you graduate, do you really plan to develop cars?"

"What's wrong? Come on, brother, don't laugh at me. What I said is true. I really want to build my own car..."

Jin Xiaoqiang knew that it must have been the vvt graphic he drew with water on the hotel table in the morning that attracted Liu Xiaoliang's attention. This guy is a technical geek.

Moreover, both of them were born in a state-owned machinery factory in Nanyang City. They have been influenced by the mechanical culture since childhood and grew up smelling the smell of machinery oil. In fact, they are the kind of people who like machinery at heart.

Nanyang Machinery Factory used to be a key unit of the country, with a total of more than 200,000 workers, including those who built cars, trains, and those who researched various mechanical tools. There were dozens of branch factories, large and small.

.

Later, after the reform and opening up, due to rigid thinking and poor leadership by several successive leaders, it had to be disintegrated in the late 1990s and was split up and bought out.

At that time, many workers could not accept it emotionally, and these children, who had grown up in workers' compounds, had such a special affection for this factory.

When they were in college, when they were chatting together, they both dreamed that one day, this factory would be able to regain its glory. Unfortunately, things went against their wishes. In the end, the factory became more and more dilapidated, and finally part of the core was preserved.

Except for that, everything else was packaged and sold.

"But cars are not easy to build! They are the comprehensive projects that can best reflect a country's comprehensive national strength."

Liu Xiaoliang suddenly sighed after listening to Jin Xiaoqiang's words.

"Yeah! It's really hard to handle!"

Jin Xiaoqiang sighed, thinking about the scene more than ten years later, the streets will be full of foreign cars with vw logos, bull head logos, or h logos.

Although domestically produced cars also occupy a certain market, they have been criticized by the Chinese people for their quality and technology.

Several major state-owned automobile factories have basically become foreign-owned automobile assembly plants. They do not invest at all in research and development, and they only help those foreigners pick out the pockets of the Chinese people.

The image of domestically produced automobiles can only be supported by a few semi-private automobile factories.

By the time he was reborn, China's annual car production and sales had exceeded 10 million vehicles, but the proportion of independent brands did not exceed 50%.

As a car market that contributes 7% to the global market, it is extremely sad that our own brands still account for less than half of the market.

On the contrary, so-called joint venture cars have become popular in the Chinese market, and it is these joint venture cars that have completely destroyed the self-research and development and repair capabilities of the Chinese automobile industry.

Whenever he thinks of this, Jin Xiaoqiang, as a practitioner in the Chinese automobile industry, will feel extremely sad. Now he is reborn, although just a few days ago, he had never thought deeply about what he would do in the future.

He was engaged in some industry, but Liu Xiaoliang's series of questions today suddenly made him feel the direction of his future life.

By the way, relying on my understanding of the future development of the automobile industry and the development of future automobile technology, why can't I participate in this industry?

Is it so difficult to build a Chinese car?

You must know that the leading manufacturers of independent brands in the next few years are also quietly brewing.

Ricky Company is still just a small workshop in the south. By the end of this year, its total output has only exceeded 30,000 vehicles, and most of them are exported to Africa.

And Li Ji is now struggling to find a breakthrough direction. Great Wall is still making pickup trucks, and Mr. Wang of BYD is still making batteries. He only started to enter the Chinese automobile industry in the middle of this year.

That's all.

These companies only introduced their products to the Chinese market between 2005 and 2006. What really made the Chinese people realize the strength of independent brands was the Jiejun Automobile launched by Huazhong Automobile in 2006.

.

Since everyone's current level is not very high, why can't I get involved in this field?

When he thought of this, Jin Xiaoqiang felt a little excited in his chest. He firmly believed that by relying on his understanding of the development of the automobile industry in the next few years and the future trend of automobile industry technology, he could create a more powerful and let people

A car brand recognized and trusted by the people of China!

Liu Xiaoliang is a purely technical talent, and he is now thinking more about technical aspects.

"Xiaoqiang, not everyone can play with this car. There are many technical difficulties involved in it! Although your family's current conditions are indeed pretty good, if you really engage in the automobile industry, the investment will be huge.

.”

Liu Xiaoliang nagged again, they all studied the automotive design industry at Nanyang University of Technology for four years, and they all know a lot about it.

"Hi! Xiaoliang, I know this even if you don't tell me. I have been thinking about this issue during this time. We have studied this stuff for four years and have a certain understanding of cars. I have summarized a few points,

Listen and check for me."

At this time, of course, Jin Xiaoqiang wanted to tell Liu Xiaoliang what he had summarized in his previous life and his personal experience.

"In fact, the most important parts of a car now are three parts, the engine, the transmission, and the chassis. As for the other parts, our country has now joined the WTO. Aren't we all paying attention to the international division of labor now? As long as we

Once we capture these three core parts, the rest can be subcontracted out. As long as we strictly control the quality, it really won’t be difficult to assemble a car.”

Jin Xiaoqiang began to tell Liu Xiaoliang.

"Hi! I also know what you're talking about. Let's not talk about the chassis for now, but the engine and transmission are long-standing problems that have plagued our Chinese automobile industry for many years. How can this be solved so easily?"

Liu Xiaoliang took the next sentence and said.

"Hey! That's right. It seems that we can only design well, then divide the labor internationally, purchase materials through channels, and then process them ourselves. For example, the vvt technology I mentioned in the morning has been developed in Japan.

I have bought it abroad for 20 years, but due to technical blockade and discrimination, except for some imported cars and domestic joint venture cars, which car has this technology on its engine? So as long as we develop this technology

, as long as such an engine is produced, it will be a buying point! Think about it! A Honda Accord with such technology, even a manual transmission, can be purchased for more than 250,000 yuan. If we come up with it,

I’ll buy this technology and the same manual transmission for 100,000 yuan. Do you think there is a market for it?”

Jin Xiaoqiang thought of the beauty and started to be very happy but said to Liu Xiaoliang.
