Reborn to dominate technology

The next day, at ten o'clock in the morning, Li Li led more than 30 automotive engineers from the company, marching out of Piaocheng International Airport in a grand manner.

As soon as they exited the airport, they saw dozens of cars sent by Audi waiting outside.

Vice President Huang from Audi, who was waiting outside the airport, immediately greeted them upon seeing people coming out, saying, "President Li, hello."

"I am Huang Ming, Vice President of Audi. Please get in the car!"

"Our President Lu is already waiting for you at the company!"

"Thank you for your trouble, Vice President Huang, coming to pick us up in person. I'm a bit embarrassed."

After exchanging pleasantries, they got into the cars and headed to the Audi factory. The technical personnel, after getting into the cars, began to marvel at the quality of Audi vehicles.

"Wow, the Audi A4 is indeed amazing. This seat is just too comfortable."

"Alas, our manufacturing process is still far behind Audi's."

"When will we be able to build such good cars?"

"Alas, let's just focus on the low-end market for now. We can't afford to play in the luxury car market!"

Lu Haifeng was already personally waiting at the factory gate for the people from those domestic car companies. After all, they were coming to deliver money, so Lu Haifeng had to receive them with the highest level of courtesy, both out of consideration for the situation and for personal reasons.

Seeing the cars arriving, Lu Haifeng immediately greeted them with a smile, saying, "Welcome, President Li. President Li, you must stay for a few more days this time, so that I can do my best as the host."

Li Li laughed and said, "President Lu, definitely, definitely. I brought so many engineers here precisely to learn from you for a few more days."

Lu Haifeng's suggestion was exactly what he wanted. The reason he brought so many engineers this time was to have them learn from Audi's technical personnel and see if they could learn and steal some technology to take back.

After a while, several domestic car company bosses, led by Li Changcheng of Great Wall Motors, arrived together.

As soon as they met, Li Changcheng immediately said with a loud laugh, "President Lu, congratulations, congratulations, may wealth flow in!"

Following closely, the other car company bosses also congratulated Lu Haifeng.

Li Hai, the boss of Taishan Motors, also said with a smile, "President Lu, congratulations to Audi for a smooth development and all the best!"

Hearing Li Hai's words, Lu Haifeng said with a smile, "Thank you, I'll take your good wishes. It's really inadequate hospitality for you all to come from so far away."

"Please come inside, please come inside!"

"Haha, President Lu, you're too kind."

"I have to say, I, Lao Li, have never admired anyone, but I am completely impressed by you, President Lu."

"In just seven or eight months, you've sold more than 500,000 Audi A4s."

"If it were us, we might not even reach that sales figure in our lifetime!"

"Lao Li, what are you saying? Don't you think we can compare to President Lu?"

"Audi's technical strength is the best in the world. Which car company in the world can compare to Audi's technical reserves?"

…

After exchanging pleasantries and settling the car company bosses, Lu Haifeng saw that almost everyone had arrived.

Lu Haifeng prepared to take these car companies to visit the first phase of the Audi factory. These things were not secrets, and there was nothing that couldn't be shown.

As long as it didn't delay production, everything was fine. As for the possibility of secrets being leaked and them learning his technology, that was even more impossible.

The first phase of the Audi factory was only for assembly work, and such an advanced production line, apart from Lu Haifeng's place, probably couldn't be seen anywhere else. Even if they wanted to learn, they wouldn't have the conditions.

The car company bosses and engineers, who were already very curious about Audi, were all very excited.

They also wanted to see what was different between Audi's production line and theirs.

Lu Haifeng then took these bosses and engineers from various car companies on a bus to the Audi factory.

Along the way, Lu Haifeng could see that the engineers who were about to visit the Audi factory were very excited.

When they arrived at the place and saw Audi's huge workshop, everyone was stunned for a moment. How big was this?

After entering the workshop, they boarded the prepared sightseeing car and toured the production equipment inside.

The car company bosses and engineers, looking at the advanced equipment in the workshop, all showed envy on their faces.

Stamping, welding, painting, assembly, testing.

In these processes, every piece of equipment used was much more advanced than what they were currently using.

The various equipment in the Audi factory was definitely the best in the world, even better than the best.

After all, it was the process equipment produced by the system, and its precision and craftsmanship absolutely surpassed the equipment manufacturers in this world.

"Wow, this production line is amazing!"

"The degree of automation is too high!"

The degree of automation in the entire Audi factory was as high as 90%. These domestic car companies were all envious to death watching it.

Li Li asked enviously, "President Lu, this should be a modular architecture platform, right?"

"I visited the Benma Group's workshop once. Their latest workshop uses a modular production model, but it's still far behind this."

The research and development of this modular platform was not something that ordinary car companies could do. Even those foreign car companies didn't have many that possessed this technology.

Hearing Li Li's words, Lu Haifeng began to say, "It is indeed a modular production platform. We put in a lot of effort to get it, and now we are also starting to develop it ourselves!"

"This production line has an automation rate of 90% and a annual output of about 200,000 vehicles. Audi now has three such workshops!"

As they walked, Lu Haifeng introduced them to the specific situation of the production line.

The car company bosses, listening to Lu Haifeng's words, were shocked in their hearts, "Goodness, three production lines with an annual output of 200,000 units and an automation rate of 90%, how much would that cost?"

The price of a production line was really not cheap. Take the current production line at the Liji factory, which can produce about 50,000 units, Li Li spent almost ten billion to buy it.

It should be known that the equipment precision and stamping and welding processes of that production line with an annual output of 50,000 units were far behind the production line in front of them.

As for the matter of the production line, Li Li and the others didn't ask Lu Haifeng where he got it from. They wouldn't ask about such things.

For this new platform that could greatly save costs, had more advanced assembly technology, and was very efficient, these car company bosses were very envious.

If possible, they actually really wanted to buy such a platform, which would not only save more costs, but also, most importantly, have more advanced technology.
