City: I, A World Car Overlord

Chapter 90

After Tian Fangcheng returned to the company, he held the first high-level seminar between Yiqi and Hongqi’s top executives.

It is said to be the seminar of the two major groups, but it is basically Tian Guangcheng’s personal speech conference.

It is nothing more than to demonstrate personal heroism and let the Shengshi C9 project be launched as soon as possible.

Over the years, Yiqi has cooperated with Volkswagen and has accumulated relatively strong R&D capabilities, making Yiqi’s A-class and B-class cars mixed in the market.

As a result, Tian Guangcheng was ambitious and started to enter the C-class luxury car market.

However, it does not mean that the wheelbase is increased on the basis of the B-class car, and the widened body is a C-class luxury car.

There are too many aspects to be tackled. First is the platform problem, and then the engine power problem.

The reason why C-class cars are called luxury cars is that they are not in the same class as B-class cars in terms of power, wheelbase, exterior interior, and ride comfort.

Otherwise, the Ministry of State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration will not spend a huge sum of 10 billion yuan to let Hongqi develop C-class luxury cars.

This shows how difficult it is to make a C-class luxury car with relatively independent intellectual property rights under the double obstacles of foreign car companies’ technical blockade and patent barriers.

Originally, Yiqi Group wanted to make a relatively autonomous C-class luxury car, but there was a long way to go.

But with Walton’s guarantee and Audi’s help, many key problems were solved.

That’s why Tian Guangcheng has the courage to take over the mess of Hongqi and threatened to take the Shengshi C9 off the assembly line within a month or two.

In fact, after Tian Guangcheng took over the Shengshi C9 project, he transplanted the C-class car project under development by Yiqi.

And put all the high-end R&D engineer teams of the two major groups to participate in the R&D trial production of this project.

At the same time, under Walton’s agreement, a design and R&D team composed of more than 20 people came to Hongqi.

Taking into account that Hongqi C9 is the main order of the car, and its performance in the market is inferior, so the appearance must be focused on calmness, atmosphere, moderation, and majesty…

Of course, even if it is to be sold in the civilian market and achieve certain results, it is also necessary to properly demonstrate the elements of sports, luxury and vitality.

These aspects are fully reflected from the Audi A6, which has the title of official car god, otherwise, it will not become the first choice for official cars and sweep the C-class car civilian market.

Tian Guangcheng has stayed in Yiqi for so many years. Naturally, it is Men Erqing. Therefore, not only the original Shengshi C9 was overthrown, but also his own C-level project has undergone drastic changes.

How to make drastic changes?

First of all, starting from the appearance, Tian Guangcheng, who knows the importance of appearance, decided to create a model that is invincible and beautiful.

The second is the research and development of platforms, power, electrical, etc. Tian Guangcheng, who is rich in wealth, also pursues perfection.

Therefore, under Walton’s strong recommendation, the high salary invited the Nowitz design and R&D team introduced by Walton.

The model designers in the Nowitz team participated in the design of Audi A4 and Audi A6.

Several R&D engineers in the R&D team are also top engineers in the automotive industry today.

This shows that Audi has spared no effort to prevent Baolong electric vehicles from becoming an official car.

It is precisely because the Nowitz team participated in the design of the popular Audi models, they were very arrogant from the bottom of their hearts.

But let alone, seeing them look so cold, Tian Guangcheng actually valued a little bit, and his heart was full of expectations.Under Tian Guangcheng’s instructions, Yi Qi arranged for these foreign masters very thoughtfully.

Equipped with personal translation, special car delivery, staying in high-end hotels, and separate offices are all necessary.

Even considering that the members of the Nowitz team come from the proud country and the Napo country, they hired chefs who can cook western food with a high salary.

Tian Guangcheng really cared about these foreign masters in life, cooperated in work, and even had arrangements outside of work…

When the Nowitz team saw this pose, it was a bit dazed at the time. I was obedient.

In the past, when designing for other companies, either the project manager rushed, or the R&D department rushed, and it was as busy as a dog.

But when it came to the heavenly dynasty and the Yiqi Group, it was confessed.

I don’t feel like a designer who takes money to do things, but the boss of the company…

In the absence of detailed arrangements and high remuneration, the Nowitz team is still very motivated.

At the same time, under the agreement of Walton, various patents and technical materials of Audi cars have also been sent to Yiqi Group.

Of course, both the Nowitz team and the patents and technical materials need money, and the amount is huge.

But Tian Guangcheng didn’t care, he still had six billion yuan in research and development funds in his hand.

As the saying goes, I don’t feel bad about selling Ye Tian.

Under this series of measures, the C-class luxury car project of Yiqi Group, which has been stagnant, is progressing very rapidly like a volcanic eruption.

Tian Guangcheng saw it in his eyes and was happy in his heart. He frequented Hongqi and the Ministry of State Assets to report on the progress of Shengshi C9 at any time and was praised by the leaders.

……

Powerlong Company.

Hong Qi’s deputy general manager and his team came out of the general manager’s office. They looked ugly and left Baolong without turning their heads.

Their trip was nothing else, it was after a round of evaluation, they negotiated with Baolong about 1 billion R&D funding.

According to their data, from the start of the Shengshi Electric C9 project, to the trial run.

The electric powertrain purchased from Baolong during this period.

Technical support provided by Baolong to Hongqi.

Including the salaries of five R&D engineers.

Calculate all of them, no more than one hundred million.

So they hope to be able to suspend the contract.

Recover the remaining nine hundred million.

Lin Fan watched Hong Qi’s people leave, drank the tea made by Chen Huiyi in one breath, and smashed his mouth: “These guys must have water in their heads, and they want to return the money that went into the little master’s pocket. I just want to fart.”

Chen Huiyi covered his mouth and smiled: “I don’t think they really thought about going back. They just took a form to fulfill the promise Tian Guangcheng made in front of the media. Otherwise, they should be from the Legal Department. ”

Lin Fan thought about what happened these days and shook his head: “Hey, this Tian Guangcheng is really idle. If you take the Shengshi C9 project, even if you don’t use my electric assembly, you will do it well. Why do you want to bite? I won’t let it go.”

Chen Huiyi’s eyes rolled: “Then, he must be afraid that after our A6 goes offline, it will pose a threat to his official car project, so the clock is against you.”

Lin Fan smiled and said: “He really looks up to me. Although I want to make the A6 an official car and further increase the influence of the Baolong brand, I am the owner of a private company. I have no way and no backstage. How can I compete with him?

Even if 80 A8s were given to the Asian Economic Forum last time, the performance of the A8 has been recognized by the public, but it still has not received any orders from the government. It can be seen that the official car is really not a private company. Enmeshed. ”

Chen Huiyi didn’t understand this, and worried: “From the current situation, Tian Guangcheng should be in the limelight. I think Mr. Lin still…try not to provoke him.”

Lin Fan understands Chen Huiyi’s worries. After all, he is just a small boss in a private enterprise, and there is still some gap with those big bosses, but in his heart he secretly said: I don’t want to mess with him, but this stuff is all over me, that’s it. Endure?

Just as Lin Fan was depressed, the office door rang.

“Please come in.”

The door opened, but Xu Lao walked in.

“Old Xu, why are you here?” Lin Fan got up to greet him.

For Mr. Xu, Lin Fan still respects him. Without his help, the R&D project would certainly not go so smoothly.

“That… Xiao Fan, I came to discuss something with you.”

“Well, Mr. Xu, if you have anything, just tell me.”

Seeing Mr. Xu looked a little embarrassed, Lin Fan was a little puzzled.

“Yes, I have a student who wants to work in Baolong, you see…”

“Hey, Mr. Xu, I thought it was such a big deal. Since it is your student, just tell Hui Yi and ask her to report to the personnel department.”

Lin Fan was even more puzzled when Xu Lao made this request.

Lin Fan didn’t know where Xu Lao recruited so many R&D personnel.

None of these people are mediocre, and Lin Fan’s performance after coming to Baolong has not disappointed.

Therefore, Lin Fan has greeted the personnel department, as long as it is the people brought by Xu Lao, they will be hired directly.

But today, Xu Lao came to Lin Fan personally, and seemed a little cautious, which made Lin Fan a little puzzled.

Elder Xu organized the language and said, “This person is a bit special, so it’s better to talk to you. Besides, do you want to see him.”

Lin Fan was interested in what Xu Lao said: “Okay, is that person here?”

“Well, here it is.”

Xu Lao said, turned and retired, and introduced before leaving the house: “Oh, yes, his name is Wu Xinnian. He used to be the project manager of Hongqi Group and Shengshi C9 project. Now he has been laid off.”

When Lin Fan heard it, he realized why Mr. Xu was so mysterious. The project manager of the Shengshi C9 project is a big man.

Soon, Wu Xinnian entered Lin Fan’s office.

Lin Fan looked at this man. He was in his forties. He was dressed more casually, with a jacket and jeans, giving him the image of an old technician who has been soaking in a certain mechanical engineering all the year round.

“Mr Lin, hello, my name is Wu Xinnian.” Wu Xinnian walked in and reached out.

“Well, Xu Lao gave me a brief introduction.” After Lin Fan shook hands with Wu Xinnian, he asked him to sit down.”Mr. Lin, I’m going out first, what should I do.” Chen Huiyi guessed that the former Hongqi project manager must have something important when he came here, so he left the office with interest.

Seeing that there are no others, Wu Xinnian smiled bitterly: “Mr. Lin, I have nowhere but to come to you to beg for food.”

Lin Fan waved his hand and laughed: “Mr. Wu joked. There are people rushing to ask for Mr. Xu’s students everywhere, but our company does not have a project manager, nor does it have the title of manager in the R&D department.

Of course, this seems very informal, but Xu Lao doesn’t like others to call him a manager, so I don’t have a manager at all. If you want, you can give you a R&D team and you will be the team leader. ”

Wu Xinnian smiled lightly: “I have a technical background. It is enough to give me a chance to engage in research and development. I never care about the manager’s false job.”

Lin Fan poured tea for Wu Xinnian and tentatively asked: “Mr. Wu came to me not just to ask for a job opportunity.”

Wu Xinnian took a sip of tea and praised: “Mr. Lin’s tea art is good.”

Lin Fan shook his head and smiled: “Where I can make tea, it’s the secretary who makes it.”

He really doesn’t know much about tea art. This tea set, including the tea he drank, was bought by Chen Huiyi. He didn’t know how much she spent, but he just thought it was delicious.

Wu Xinnian put down his teacup, straightened his collar, and said, “I think Mr. Bi Lin has also heard about Hong Qi, but Mr. Lin may not know the inside story…”

Lin Fan nodded. If it wasn’t for himself, he wouldn’t have the time to pay attention to Hong Qi’s family affairs.

Wu Xinnian briefly told Lin Fan what happened to Hong Qi, as well as his own thoughts and analysis.

Among them, even Audi’s involvement in this strategy made Wu Xinian guess the general idea.

After Lin Fan listened to these inside stories, he was still a little shocked. The shopping mall was like a battlefield, and it was right.

Lin Fan also heard that Wu Xinnian was beaten up by Lu Changsheng’s calculations, and was also angry at the suspension of Shengshi C9.

So he asked: “So, what do you mean…”

“Help you win the official car project!”

Wu Xinnian’s tone was very positive, and he looked confident.

But Lin Fan was amused by him: “The Shengshi C9 project has been taken over by Tian Guangcheng. The official car selection is a foregone conclusion. Does it mean that it can be changed? Mr. Wu joked.”

Seeing Lin Fan shook his head, Wu Xinnian became a little anxious, and his tone sped up a bit: “The Shengshi C9 project was set up to solve the chaos in the car. I am very clear about the requirements of this project.

I also have some understanding of the A6 being developed by Baolong. If I change it slightly according to what I said, it can meet the official car procurement standards, and what I want is just an opportunity. ”

Lin Fan knew that Wu Xinnian wanted the opportunity to fight the injustice for Lu Changsheng’s fall. He was also disgusted by Tian Guangcheng’s shameless methods, and he had to teach Cheng Gong who was “betraying his master and seeking glory”.

If Lin Fan is not interested in official cars, it must be fake.

Not to mention that the official car is a big order, and the follow-up maintenance and maintenance is also a big business.

Putting on the official car label from the Baolong brand alone is enough to increase the influence of the Baolong brand to a large extent.

But Lin Fan is also very aware of the difficulties involved. After all, Baolong is just a private company with no backstage.

He sighed and said: “Mr. Wu, I have to admit that I was moved by you, but you also know that with the background of Baolong, even if the A6 is built into a luxury car that fully meets the official car standards, it is not necessarily true. I can take this order.”

Seeing that Lin Fan had moved his heart, Wu Xinnian took out a long-prepared plan and handed it to Lin Fan, saying: “Mr. Lin, in addition to the technical requirements for official cars, I also prepare a practical plan.

This plan may have a little conspiracy, but if Mr. Lin follows my plan, I am at least 60% sure that Mr. Lin will get the official car order. “.
