King of Industry

  Chapter 709 Consultation and Discussion

  Listening to Pierre Ebola's explanation, Zhao Guoyang raised his mouth and shook his finger: "Mr. Ebola, I never said that you should use your own brand to set foot in the low-end market..."

   Zhao Guoyang's words hit the silent Samuel Carter like a bolt of lightning.

This person seemed to have been poked in the **** by a needle, and exclaimed: "Oh, I understand what you mean, Mr. Zhao. You mean, our Bombardier all-terrain vehicle can cooperate with the all-terrain vehicle manufacturer in your country, Such as investing money and providing technology?”

   Zhao Guoyang nodded and said: "That's right, Mr. Carter is right, that's what I mean. Not only that, your company can even create a sub-brand in China!"

   "It's like the relationship between 'Toyota' and 'Crown'. Of course, the sub-brand established by your company in China must be aimed at the low-end market, which is exactly the opposite of the former relationship."

  After Zhao Guoyang finished speaking, several bosses of Bombardier breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

   Indeed, his method has solved the problem that Bombardier all-terrain vehicles may not be sold in the Chinese market.

  In addition, the establishment of the sub-brand also means that Bombardier's all-terrain vehicles have the ability to compete with old rivals such as "Polaris" and "John Deere" in the mid-to-low-end products.

  With Bombardier's appeal in the all-terrain vehicle industry, even if it can't overtake the opponent for a while, at least the top three positions in profit can definitely be secured.

After thinking about this, Samuel Carter shook his fist vigorously and said, "Mr. Zhao's idea really awakened the dreamer! Later, I will call a meeting with the senior management of the all-terrain vehicle manufacturing company and seriously consider what you said. This cooperation method!"

  Pierre Ebola also nodded again and again: "That's right, Mr. Zhao's idea really expanded our thinking very well. We, Bombardier, are very grateful for this!"

   Zhao Guoyang was amused when he heard the words: "Mr. Ebola, Mr. Carter, if you are grateful, there is no need. I just hope that when your company is looking for partners in China, you can pay attention to our three motorcycle manufacturers here!"

   While talking, Zhao Guoyang introduced Liang Hongjun and Xue Ming to Bombardier's bosses.

He said with a smile: "To be honest, one of the important tasks of our inspection team's trip to North America is to investigate the all-terrain vehicle market in North America. Because the companies where Mr. Liang and Mr. Xue belong to have entered the market. What is the plan of this industry!"

  Zhao Guoyang's frankness made several bosses of Bombardier appreciate him even more.

   Liang Hongjun and Xue Ming were also a little moved.

  After all, Zhao Guoyang did not only care about the interests of his own "Hongda Machinery Factory", but introduced "Siyang Group" and "Cheavy Qi Group" together. This kind of selflessness is really beyond the reach of many people.

   After Zhao Guoyang finished speaking, Calderon couldn't help smiling at him and said, "Mr. Zhao speaks quickly, and he is really different from the Chinese friends I met before..."

  The implication is that this Mr. Calderon naturally appreciates Zhao Guoyang's character more.

  Samuel Carter heard that Zhao Guoyang had another identity, he was the vice president of technology of a motorcycle manufacturer in Huaxia, and he seemed to have found a bosom friend.

  He couldn't wait to say: "Mr. Zhao, I just heard your special explanation about our Bombardier all-terrain vehicle, and I vaguely felt that you were an expert. I didn't expect that to be the case. That's great!"

   Speaking of this, Samuel Carter turned his head to look at Pierre Ebola and said, "Chairman, I would like to ask Mr. Zhao a few questions about all-terrain vehicles, do you think?"

  The meaning in Samuel Carter's words was naturally understood by everyone present.

  Isn’t it obvious enough that he, the head of the world’s best all-terrain vehicle manufacturer, “asked” a question to a junior who hadn’t set foot in this industry yet?

   Undoubtedly, this boss already has a preliminary plan to cooperate with Zhao Guoyang's "Hongda Machinery Factory".

   Pierre Ebola is of course well aware of Samuel Carter's intentions.

  Just like his own subordinates, he has already developed several strong interests in Zhao Guoyang, the young head of the investigation team.

   It goes without saying that Mr. Zhao's overall outlook, eloquence, and analytical ability are all very good.

   I just don’t know if he can surprise people like himself again on a technical level?

With this in mind, Pierre Ebola nodded to Samuel Carter, then turned to look at Zhao Guoyang and said, "This is a good thing, of course I have no objection. But, it depends on Mr. Zhao's Attitude!"

  Zhao Guoyang was worried that he didn't have the opportunity to discuss technical issues in depth. After listening to the conversation between these two people, how could he pretend to be reserved and go around in circles with them slowly.

  He let out a "huh" and said quite sincerely: "No problem, Mr. Carter. I also happen to have some technical questions about all-terrain vehicles, and I want to discuss with you!"

   Hearing that Zhao Guoyang used the word "discussion", several young cadres on the Huaxia delegation were secretly speechless.

  Huo Xiufen, Chang Linda, and Duan Ruixiang have never seen Zhao Guoyang's technical prowess, so they naturally lack confidence in him at this time.

   After all, they have just heard that Mr. Carter is the helm of the world's number one all-terrain vehicle manufacturer, and he is a technician.

   "Discussing" technical issues with such an industry leader, this Researcher Zhao is too...

  Samuel Carter, who received Zhao Guoyang's promise, couldn't wait to speak: "Mr. Zhao, let's start with the TTI you just mentioned."

  Samuel Carter looked at Zhao Guoyang expectantly and said, "Our Bombardier's unique rear suspension system, which operates independently of driven torque, has always been the benchmark in the industry. I wonder what Mr. Zhao thinks about it?"

Hearing his question, Zhao Guoyang said without hesitation: "The rear suspension system with driven torque independent (TTI) is the only independent rear suspension system among all systems that can eliminate the change of scraping diameter and camber angle. .”

"Because the fulcrum is placed in front of the wheel, the rear wheel turns up and down on the pivot, so that the wheel moves forward according to the human control. More importantly, this system has fewer moving parts than other systems, effectively reducing worn out."

  After Zhao Guoyang’s statement was uttered, the bosses of Bombardier were surprised when they looked at me and you.

  Although the rear suspension system that operates independently of the driven torque is not a new technology in the field of all-terrain vehicles.

  But in the entire industry, only Bombardier can use it maturely.

   It can be said that Bombardier is very proud of the secrecy and high gold content of this technology.

  However, this Mr. Zhao, without any effort, talked about the power of his own system. How could Pierre Ebola and Dussel not care about this?

  Compared with a few of them, Samuel Carter was even more surprised by Zhao Guoyang's account.

  Honestly speaking, there is nothing surprising about Mr. Zhao's explanation.

  But his understanding of this system is fully presented in these few sentences.

   Just when Samuel Carter was hesitating to ask further questions, Zhao Guoyang continued to speak.

   "Everyone, the advantages of the rear suspension system that operates independently of the driven torque are obvious, but its defects also exist."

Zhao Guoyang said as a matter of course: "First of all, the research process of this system is too complicated, and it has to go through repeated demonstrations and tests. For each model of your company, as long as there is a change in length, width and height, or the total amount is changed, think about it. To apply this system, we have to reinvent the wheel."

   "Of course, Bombardier's all-terrain vehicles are taking the boutique route, and they may only launch one or two models every year. This also makes this job look a lot easier."

Speaking of this, Zhao Guoyang said with a bit of a joke: "However, for other all-terrain vehicle manufacturers, instead of spending so much effort to calculate and verify this system, it is better to choose a simpler system. "

   "After all, second-tier all-terrain vehicle manufacturers like 'Polaris', 'John Deere' and the island nation's 'Yamaha', the number of models they launch every year is not a small number..."

  After Zhao Guoyang uttered this precise analysis, the faces of Bombardier bosses all changed.

  If at the beginning, everyone just thought that Head Zhao was an excellent analyst, then after these words were spoken, his status as a "technical master" was confirmed.

   While the leaders of Bombardier were amazed, Zhao Guoyang's evaluation continued.

  Seeing that none of the Bombardier employees said a word, and seemed dissatisfied with his evaluation, he touched his nose and said something else.

  Zhao Guoyang tried his best to use a calm and neutral tone: "In addition, this system on your company's all-terrain vehicles has another problem that cannot be ignored, that is, the cost is relatively high."

"That's right, this system does have fewer moving parts than other systems. But its requirements for parts are more than one level higher than other systems. The materials used are also much more sophisticated. Ordinary Q235, Q345 steel is absolutely not allowed to make this set of parts!"

   "Then Mr. Zhao thinks, what kind of materials do we need for this rear suspension system that operates independently of driven torque?" Samuel Carter asked with wide eyes.

"At least it must be steel above QStE380TM. Because this fine-grain steel has good cold formability and tensile strength. Only by using this material can the rear suspension be guaranteed to be under heavy pressure without deformation or bending. And so on."

   Zhao Guoyang said like a few treasures: "But the price of QStE380TM is more than twice that of Q345. If you use a better QStE420TM, the cost will be even higher."

   "Your company's rear suspension system that operates independently of the driven torque has not been popularized so far, and cost is also an important factor..."
