The motorcycle engine data in the negotiation memorandum made Li Weidong confused. In his opinion, this should not be the engine data that a scooter should have at all.

"What type of engine is this? How come there is such data? Has Taifeng Motorcycle been cheated by Japanese manufacturers?" Li Weidong frowned.

Seeing Li Weidong frowning, Ma Dexing couldn't help but ask: "Director Li, is there anything wrong with this negotiation memorandum?"

"There is no problem with the negotiation memorandum." Li Weidong shook his head, and then asked: "Director Ma, is it really the scooters that Taifeng Motorcycle is going to introduce?"

"It's a scooter. This is what was written in Taifeng Motorcycle's application and the Chinese memorandum." Ma Dexing said and began to look for the Chinese negotiation memorandum.

Li Weidong also immediately looked through the Japanese version of the memorandum, and then nodded: "Yes, scooters are also mentioned in the Japanese negotiation memorandum."

"Is there any problem then?" Ma Dexing said casually.

"The problem is that the engine data stated in this memo is not like that of a scooter." Li Weidong paused and then explained: "Director Ma, I used to be a car mechanic when I was in a transportation company.

I can also repair motorcycles. So I still know something about motorcycle engines."

"Director Li, are you saying that the engines given to this motorcycle production line are wrong and we are being cheated?" Ma Dexing asked.

"It's hard to say whether I was cheated or not. After all, I just looked at a few data and it's hard to draw a conclusion." Li Weidong said in a conservative tone.

Ma Dexing nodded, and then asked: "I don't know much about motorcycle engines. What's wrong with the data of this engine? Is it insufficient power?"

Li Weidong shook his head: "There is no problem with the power. Not only is there no problem, it is actually great. Not only is the power good, the torque data of the engine is also relatively high."

Ma Dexing was slightly startled, and then Kai Ke said: "Although I don't understand motorcycle engines, it has good power and high torque, which is a good thing!"

"But a light scooter like Mulan cannot use such a good engine. And if the engine data reaches this level, the size of the engine will inevitably become larger, and it should not fit into the body of Mulan." Li Weidong said.

explained.

Only then did Ma Dexing show an expression of sudden realization; "If you say so, I will understand! I will call Taifeng Motorcycle Factory now and ask what's going on."

Ma Dexing went to make a call, while Li Weidong continued to read the negotiation memorandum.

"The Japanese company that sells motorcycle production lines to Taifeng Motorcycle is called Dongyang Co., Ltd. The name is a bit strange. Does this company produce motorcycles? When I worked in Japan in my previous life, I didn't seem to have seen this brand.

Motorcycle. There is no company introduction here, otherwise I would know the background of Dongyang Co., Ltd."

While Li Weidong was thinking about it, he carefully read the contents of the negotiation memorandum.

"This engine is called TY-12. I have never heard of models starting with TY. There should be no engines starting with TY among several well-known motorcycle brands in Japan. However, Japanese motorcycle engines are among the top in the world. Many of them are among the best in the world.

Small factories in the second and third tiers also have their own engines. Maybe this Dongyang Co., Ltd. is a small factory in the second and third tiers."

In the negotiation memorandum, except for the problem with the engine data, everything else was quite satisfactory. It was nothing more than asking for a high price and paying the money on the spot. No other useful information could be found.

Li Weidong finished reading the negotiation memorandum, and Ma Dexing also finished making the phone call.

"I asked Taifeng Motorcycle Factory, and the matter was clarified. What they introduced was a scooter, but it was not a light scooter like the Mulan. The Qingqi Mulan has already made a name for itself, and its market sales are also very good. Now

When ordinary people buy sobriety pedals, they recognize Little Mulan."

Ma Dexing paused and then said: "Since the light scooter market has been occupied by Mulan, Taifeng Motorcycle Factory has no intention of entering this market again, so they introduced medium-sized scooters from Japan. This medium-sized scooter

The scooter is much larger than the Mulan, and the body is heavier, so the power and torque requirements of the engine are also relatively large."

"Medium-sized scooter?" Li Weidong looked at the engine data again, and then shook his head: "Such power and torque are still too high on a medium-sized scooter!"

Ma Dexing smiled slightly: "Director Li, you are indeed an expert. You can see the clues at a glance! In fact, the production line introduced by Taifeng Motorcycle Factory can not only produce medium-sized scooters, but also large-sized scooters. Medium-sized scooters

Scooters and large scooters both use the same engine.

It's just that large scooters are expensive and not as flexible as medium-sized scooters. There should be no market in our country. Therefore, Typhoon Motorcycle Factory only plans to produce medium-sized scooters for the time being. If there is demand in the domestic market in the future, they can directly

Converted to the production of large scooters.

From this point of view, the leaders of Taifeng Motorcycle Factory are still very far-sighted. They directly selected medium-sized scooters, which not only avoided competing with Mulan in the light scooter market, but also took into account future sustainable development.

A production line that can undergo product upgrades has been selected.”

Li Weidong frowned. Taifeng Motorcycle Factory's explanation sounded reasonable, but Li Weidong still felt something was wrong.

"The engine of a large motorcycle? This is just to fool the Chinese people! After all, few Chinese have ridden Japanese large motorcycles, and they have no idea what Japanese large motorcycles are like. Even those who have ridden them may not be familiar with motorcycles.

There is research on engines.

When I was working in Japan in my previous life, the four major motorcycle brands, Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha and Kawasaki, produced many large motorcycles. I had repaired and ridden all of them. The four major motorcycle brands were used for large motorcycles.

The engine is definitely not like this!

The four major motorcycle brands represent the highest level of Japanese motorcycle craftsmanship. The other second- and third-tier motorcycle brands are also imitating the four major motorcycle brands. It is absolutely impossible for a company like Toyo Co., Ltd., which I have never heard of, to exist.

Engine technology that surpasses the four major motorcycle brands.

It seems that Taifeng Motorcycle Factory was deceived by Dongyang Co., Ltd. The so-called production line can be upgraded to make large-scale scooters. In all likelihood, it is a lie told by Dongyang Co., Ltd. in order to sell the production line!"

Thinking of this, Li Weidong frowned again. Li Weidong had figured it out himself, but how should he explain it to Ma Dexing?

If Li Weidong tells Ma Dexing his inference, Ma Dexing will definitely ask Li Weidong to provide evidence. Li Weidong can't tell Ma Dexing that he repaired a car in Japan in his previous life, right?

Li Weidong thought for a moment and then thought of a way. He said, "Director Ma, there was news at the end of last year. I wonder if you noticed it. It was Jialing Motorcycles that introduced the engine technology of off-road motorcycles from Honda."

"There seems to be such a thing. I saw it in the work briefing in the system." Ma Dexing nodded.

Li Weidong continued: "Jialing introduced the technology of off-road motorcycles not to produce off-road motorcycles, but to use it on ordinary motorcycles in Jialing. The southwest region is already mountainous, and many places in our rural areas still have dirt roads.

Ordinary motorcycles can't ride in it at all, so you have to use off-road motorcycle technology."

"Indeed, Jialing Motorcycle's off-road climbing ability is indeed very good, but what does this have to do with the introduction of a production line by Taifeng Motorcycle Factory?" Ma Dexing asked in confusion.

"The power and torque requirements of the engine of off-road motorcycles are higher than those of ordinary motorcycles, and even higher than those of scooters."

Li Weidong said, pointing to the engine data on the briefing: "If I entered it correctly, the engine provided by Dongyang Co., Ltd. has better data than the off-road motorcycles introduced by Jialing."

Ma Dexing still looked confused: "The data is better, isn't that a good thing?"

Li Weidong shook his head and continued to explain: "Director Ma, think about it, how many years has Jialing been making motorcycles? What is the quality of their motorcycles? How is their reputation? How is their sales? We all know these. When it comes to Jialing

It is no exaggeration to say that Motorcycle is the first-class motorcycle factory in China, right?

A domestic first-class motorcycle company like Jialing, with so many years of technology accumulation, has only now begun to introduce off-road motorcycle technology from Honda. Do you think our province's Taifeng Motorcycle Factory is better than Jialing in introducing it?

Technology? Compared with Jialing Motorcycle, Taifeng Motorcycle Factory has no advantage in introducing better technology?

Let’s talk about this motorcycle engine. Honda’s motorcycle engines are world-class, but the engine data they provided to Jialing is not as good as Toyo Co., Ltd.’s engine. How is this possible? Is it possible that Toyo Co., Ltd.’s engine is better than Honda’s?

Even more powerful?

To put it another way, if Dongyang Co., Ltd.’s production line is so good, why don’t other major domestic motorcycle manufacturers introduce it? Can such a good production line fall to Taifeng Motorcycle Factory? In the same way, if Dongyang Co., Ltd.

Their products are on Honda's level, how could they possibly sell their production lines to Taifeng Motorcycle Factory?

In addition, the price of this production line is only three million US dollars for the whole set. Isn’t it too low? It is written in the negotiation memorandum that this is not a simple motorcycle assembly line, but a real motorcycle production line! At this price, you can buy it

A better motorcycle line than Honda?

Therefore, I feel that there are too many doubts about the introduction of motorcycle production lines at Taifeng Motorcycle Factory, and many aspects are completely illogical. Therefore, I suggest that the department should conduct a careful investigation to prevent our company from suffering losses.

"

Ma Dexing nodded: "Listening to what you said, I really think this matter is not that simple. Let's do this. Tomorrow I will go to Taifeng Motorcycle Factory to learn about it on the spot. If you are free, let's go together! After all, motorcycles are concerned

You know more about things than I do."
