Reborn Xiangjiang Tycoon Growth

Back in Detroit, Bao Zixuan seemed to be a different person. He had been engaged in business negotiations for so many days, and he seemed to have forgotten his job. He was an engineer, and research and development was his favorite.

Seeing the boss wearing work clothes and appearing in high spirits in front of everyone. The engineering and technical staff all thought that the boss must have received physical and mental comfort in Hollywood, otherwise how could it be so.

Detroit is also a big city in the United States. Of course, there are many gossip media reports that Bao Zixuan is dating a beautiful celebrity of Chinese descent. Bao Zixuan is also a hot-blooded man. It is normal for him to not be able to resist a mixed-race beauty. And there is no need for him to take the initiative to date him.

As long as the news spreads, many girls will take the initiative to pounce on him.

Ignoring the complicated expressions of the engineering technicians, Bao Zixuan organized the first discussion meeting on the new military vehicle. Generally, new vehicle research and development will be divided into five stages.

The first step is to do a good job in the market research stage; the development of a brand-new model requires a large investment of hundreds of millions or even billions. If it does not go through very detailed market research, it may be "in vain"; now there are specialized domestic

Market research companies and automobile companies will entrust them to conduct research on domestic consumer needs, preferences, habits, etc., and clarify vehicle models and market targets, that is, price strategies.

The second step is the conceptual design stage; conceptual design is mainly divided into three stages: overall layout, modeling design, and making clay models.

The third step is the engineering design stage; after completing the styling design, the engineering design stage begins. Engineering design is a process of detailed design of the entire vehicle, and each assembly is distributed to relevant departments for design and development.

The fourth step is the prototype vehicle test stage; after the engineering design stage is completed, it enters the prototype vehicle trial production stage and the test stage. The prototype vehicle test includes two aspects: performance test and reliability test.

The fifth step is the mass production stage; the start-up stage of production includes formulating the production process chain, putting various production equipment in place, laying production lines, etc. The start-up stage takes about half a year, during which the stamping, welding and welding must be repeatedly improved.

The assembly, painting and final assembly production lines will start small batch production under the conditions of ensuring the production process and prototype vehicle performance to further verify the reliability of the product and ensure that there are no major problems in the small batch production for 3 months. The mass production will be officially launched.

Produce.

According to the general progress of forward automobile development, the time is about less than 5 years. This is still a relatively fast time, otherwise it may be delayed longer. However, because of the existence of Bao Zixuan, many steps can be omitted. And before that, Heiyun

The car already has relevant technical reserves, and there is no need to design the power system, electric system, or interior decoration separately.

Also, before Bao Zixuan left some time ago, he had already assigned tasks. Now it is time to look at the research and development progress of each department and the overall effect of the platform integration.

Heiyun Group has the most advanced large-scale computers in the automotive industry, and also has a more complete software system. As long as each department completes its work, it can be integrated within the computer; it can be said to be very convenient.

At the same time, market research can be omitted. After all, this time it is the U.S. military that puts forward technical requirements. Just design according to other people's technical blueprints, but it can only be higher, not lower. Otherwise, you will not even be qualified to be shortlisted, let alone compete with other manufacturers.

At this time, preparations for the second step have been completed. Bao Zixuan has come up with a plan for the appearance design. Senior technicians have finished making the clay model, and preliminary inspections and tests have been completed.

The people who came here were all engineers, and they also understood the boss’s work style. Everyone was wearing work clothes and waiting seriously for the boss to formulate a work plan.

Seeing that everyone's expressions were different from before, Bao Zixuan smiled and said: "Is there a flower on my face? It still feels funny, why do I always have this expression?"

Everyone didn't know what to say. After all, this was the first time they saw their boss look so serious. He is with you like a tiger, so it's better not to pay special attention to the boss's private life.

Seeing the serious expressions of the engineering and technical staff, Bao Zixuan changed the topic and said with a smile: "Have you all read the entertainment news? These newspaper reporters are really amazing. If it hadn't happened to me, even I would have believed it.

"

"As a man in science and engineering, it's good to read gossip news occasionally to regulate some emotions. But don't indulge in it; and don't get too deep into it. You still have to be serious when working. If you can't achieve good results at work, it's useless to say anything else."

"You may have to work hard in the next period of time. We are pressed for time and have heavy tasks. It is necessary to complete the assembly of the engineering prototype within half a month and then transport it by air to various parts of the world for testing."

At this time, an engineer said: "Boss, the media is currently building momentum for General Motors and Ford. Isn't it worthwhile for us to invest so much? After all, orders will basically not be given to Heiyun Motors."

This idea is normal. The last thing engineers and technicians want to see is to develop new products and not get a good home. Heiyun Group's development of new military vehicles is originally a good thing. But without orders, a project that wastes people and money is destined to fail.

It is not conducive to the confidence of engineering and technical personnel, and may even have a negative impact on engineers' professional resumes.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Although it is basically unrealistic for the U.S. military to purchase Heiyun military vehicles in large quantities, the whole world probably knows this. But so what, Heiyun's purpose is to develop the most advanced vehicles in the world with the most superior performance.

products.”

"As for whether the U.S. military purchases it or not, it is not something we need to consider. As long as the product is good enough and the U.S. military does not purchase it, people in other countries are not blind."

After hearing what Bao Zixuan said, the engineer was very emotional. The boss can even sell old military vehicles, so there is certainly no big problem with the new products developed by Heiyun itself.

Bao Zixuan continued: "It is right to consider market factors. After all, products are developed for the market. They cannot be limited to one city or one place. The military vehicles we develop must be able to adapt to any regional environment. To achieve the ultimate product, customers

They will take the initiative to find us."

“Without great products, everything is in vain.”

Bao Zixuan made it very clear that he doesn’t want engineers to think about the pros and cons. He only needs them to develop products with peace of mind, which is the most urgent and important thing.

Bao Zixuan continued: "How is the clay model making going?"

The pace of this change is really fast. From the gossip issues at the beginning, to the market issues, and now to the clay model. If it is not that it is unorganized and the mind is messed up, then it is because of its super ability to transform thinking. Obviously Bao Zixuan belongs to the latter group.

If you meet such a boss, it is also a challenge for engineers.

An old mechanic stood up and said: "The clay model has been made and has passed quantitative tests. The data and dimensions provided by the boss are very detailed and do not pose any difficulty or challenge to our department."

Bao Zixuan was very pleased to hear this, not only because of the work efficiency, but more importantly, the confidence of the old technicians. When Heiyun Group first took over, the workers who stayed at Chrysler did not have such confidence and this kind of work attitude.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand that the factory was half-dead at that time. It was difficult for workers to guarantee even the most basic wages, let alone improving welfare benefits. After Heiyun took over, not only did they increase the wage standards, but they also provided ample overtime pay. These old workers, their income

It has reached 3 times or even more than before. What is there to dissatisfy with the standard American middle-class income?

If you don't work seriously, you will not only be sorry for the salary provided by the company, but you will also be sorry for your own conscience. After leaving Heiyun Automobile, you will not have such a good life in the future, and you will basically never meet such a generous boss.

Bao Zixuan: "Very good. How was the engineering design phase completed?"

The clay model has passed the test, so each assembly needs to be assigned to different departments. As the boss, Bao Zixuan also serves as the chief designer, as long as the person in charge of the assembly is responsible for it.

The person in charge of the assembly is a middle-aged man in his 40s who previously worked for Jeep. After Bao Zixuan acquired the Jeep brand, he was re-employed. The main reason was the other person's identity, a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

The person in charge of the assembly stood up and said: "Except for the power distribution system, which still has some problems, the rest has been designed. The bus design required by the US military is very different from that of traditional cars. We need to re-develop the entire power distribution system."

"It is expected that the entire design will be completed in three days. It has been successfully simulated on the computer. It just requires the cooperation of several factories, which delayed some time."

"Bao Zixuan didn't say much after hearing this. He is quite satisfied with the progress."
