King of Industry

  Chapter 807 Huaxia Automobile Group Company was established

  * On the edge of the Pujiang River, in a huge factory area, red flags are waving.

   On the newly built stage in the square, a grand inauguration ceremony is going on.

  On the side of the rostrum, Zhao Guoyang and Wu Jianlong, chairman of FAW Group, smiled and applauded together, calling Mao Zhichun, chairman of Songqi Group, who was speaking on the stage.

  Today is February 6th, which is also the day when Huaxia Automobile Group Co., Ltd. was officially established in SJ City.

  With only three days left until the Spring Festival of 1994, this automobile group, which attracted the attention of industrialists across the country, was finally formally established.

  Many bigwigs attended the inauguration ceremony of this group today, including Fang Xuesen, the leader of the Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry, Li Kejian, the deputy leader, Huang Zhigang*, the head of SJ City, Gao Tongzhou*, who is in charge of the industry, and so on.

  As the executive chairman of the newly established Huaxia Automobile Group, Mao Zhichun naturally wanted to take the stage first to express his gratitude to all the guests.

   And Zhao Guoyang and Wu Jianlong are both members of the party group of the group, so of course they also want to stand on the platform today.

  After Chairman Mao gave some enthusiastic speeches, the host, Chairman Huang Zhigang, also delivered a speech on stage, expressing warm congratulations on the establishment of Huaxia Automobile Group Co., Ltd. and placing ardent hopes on the company's development.

Later, leader Fang Xuesen, who accepted the invitation to speak on stage, also talked about the expectations of the country and the Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry for the newly established Huaxia Automobile Group Corporation. He hoped that everyone would work hard and strive to become a business card of Huaxia Automobile Industry in China and even in the world as soon as possible. .

  The speeches of the two leaders made everyone very excited. For a while, the scene was thunderous applause.

   Then, at the invitation of Chairman Mao and Vice Chairman Wu Jianlong, leaders Huang *chang and Fang Xuesen officially unveiled the plaque for Huaxia Automobile Group Corporation.

  Seeing the eight eye-catching gilded characters appearing in front of his eyes, Zhao Guoyang couldn't help but let out a deep breath.

   "Guoyang, what are you thinking? Why, I'm a little disappointed that I didn't go up to show my face?"

  Li Kejian noticed his mood swings, so he couldn't help asking with a smile.

  After listening to Mr. Li's teasing words, Zhao Guoyang was amused: "Mr. Li, you know it's not the case... I'm suffering from a headache and I'm going to be busy again."

  "Although some preparatory work has been done before, this is the first product after the establishment of the company, and there are still many areas for improvement. Trouble!"

Hearing this, Li Kejian let out a "huh" and said, "Guoyang, this matter is easy to handle. Hasn't your Huaxia Automobile Group Company already acquired the Czech 'Skoda Company'? Just call one of their models, Let’s put it here for production, isn’t it all right?”

After hearing Mr. Li's words, Zhao Guoyang shook his head and said, "Mr. Li, I thought so too at the beginning. After all, our company has just been established. If the first product is a mature model of 'Skoda', it will be a good start. It was predictable!"

   "However, during the more than a year of the company's preparation, the international auto market has also undergone considerable changes. The original best-selling car Felicia of "Skoda Company" has gradually become lonely internationally."

   "Combined with the separation of Czechoslovakia, there are many entanglements between the Czech Republic and Slovakia, and some businesses of 'Skoda' have also been affected."

   "Under such circumstances, Chairman Mao and Chairman Wu and I made a serious suggestion, and felt that it is still not possible to directly borrow the products of 'Skoda Company', but to design a brand new model by ourselves!"

  Hearing this, Li Kejian nodded suddenly.

He stroked the long beard on his chin, nodded repeatedly and said: "That's right! Although it is safe to borrow other people's models, it is insufficient in innovation. If our first shot is to be successful, we still have to do it ourselves." come!"

  Looking sideways at Zhao Guoyang for a moment, Mr. Li asked thoughtfully: "However, with Guoyang's design level, designing a new car should not be a problem for you, right? Do you still have any difficulties?"

Zhao Guoyang couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard this, and said in his heart: "Old Li, you really think highly of me. Although the exterior design of this car is not difficult, the key is that the 3D software for 1994 has not yet come out. I Can’t all the drawings be drawn with CAD?”

   "Even if I can draw it, whether the people below can understand it is still a big problem..."

   After the slander, Zhao Guoyang could only helplessly say: "Mr. Li, although the exterior design of the car is not a job with high technical content, it is extremely meticulous, and every detail needs attention."

   "As you know, my current work schedule is a bit tight, and I really don't have time to stare at this matter every day!"

  After Zhao Guoyang explained this, Li Kejian nodded suddenly.

   After being silent for a while, this person raised his head and asked, "Guoyang, haven't you already applied for an 'Automotive and Motor Vehicle New Technology Research Institute' at 'Xingtai International'?"

   "You grasp the general direction, and some specific affairs, let the comrades in the research institute do it!"

Zhao Guoyang sighed and said: "Originally, we could deal with it temporarily like this, but the two teams of the research institute currently have their own projects. I can't let them put down what they are doing and help 'outsiders' Right? After all, their salaries are paid by my 'Xingtai International'!"

"Ha ha!"

  Hearing this, Li Kejian couldn't help laughing.

  He stretched out his finger and pointed at Zhao Guoyang and said, "I see, you boy, are you trying to cheat a sum of money for car design again?"

  Zhao Guoyang spread his hands, and said helplessly: "Mr. Li, I am really not fooling you. You should know how expensive it is for an ordinary international car exterior design company to design a car model for Volkswagen and General Motors giants."

   "It is no exaggeration to say that without five million dollars, it is impossible to get it."

   "Well, what you said is true. As far as I know, the design prices of international models are indeed like this." Li Kejian was deeply convinced of this.

   "However, you can lead the technical department of Huaxia Automobile Group Corporation to tackle difficulties together!"

  After hearing this, Zhao Guoyang was helpless.

"Mr. Li, this is even more difficult! At Huaxia Automobile Group, there are only a mere 20 people in the technology research and development department. Its main work is also the car mechanism, operation, power, etc., and it is impossible to cover the model design. This one."

  Zhao Guoyang said with a bitter face: "Under this situation, all the important matters are all on me alone, can I not worry?"

   Seeing Zhao Guoyang's really bitter face, Li Kejian could only pat him on the shoulder lightly, and comforted him: "Okay, I understand your difficulties."

"Looking back, I'll ask Huaqing University for you to see if their School of Automotive Engineering can cooperate with your company on a project so that senior students and graduate students will come to your place for an internship before graduation. time…"

  After hearing Mr. Li's words, Zhao Guoyang was overjoyed.

   Originally, he complained to Mr. Li, but it was just a feeling.

  Who would have thought that Mr. Li was really considerate of himself and thought of such an idea for himself.

  The students of the School of Automobile Engineering, Huaqing University, have absolutely no problem with their ability. As long as they give a little advice, they will soon become "instant combat power". It should be completely "OK" to solve the design of this model.

  After nodding repeatedly, Zhao Guoyang thought of something else.

  He scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Mr. Li, I really don't know how to thank you. But, I still have a small request..."

  Before he said this, Li Kejian already knew what he wanted to say.

The leader gave Zhao Guoyang a funny sideways look, and snorted and said, "Do you want to tell some students of Huaqing University to go to your 'Xingtai International' for a while? Then you Pick out some good seedlings from them and hide them yourself?"

  Seeing that his own thoughts were blatantly explained by Mr. Li, Zhao Guoyang didn't feel any embarrassment.

  He said frankly: "Mr. Li, I am also proceeding from the overall situation. Didn't you say before that as long as the heart is for the progress of our China's industry, some 'little things' are harmless!"

  Li Kejian took a deep look at Zhao Guoyang, saw the righteousness on his face, and nodded helplessly.

   "Guoyang, you, don't worry, I've always cared about your 'Xingtai International' matter!"

   Li Kejian said earnestly: "In my opinion, the importance of the two research institutes under your company is no less important than this Huaxia Automobile Group Corporation."

"If your two 'research institutes' can come up with some results as soon as possible, I will give advice to Leader Fang and Director Hong, and strive to be awarded every year in the universities directly under the Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry and the State Oceanic Administration. You have specially allocated some talents to support the development of your research institute!"

  After hearing this, Zhao Guoyang's eyes lit up.

  He was overjoyed and said: "Mr. Li, you have to keep your word! Our two 'research institutes', what we lack most now are talents!"

  Li Kejian glanced at Zhao Guoyang angrily, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Why, I am such an old man, can I still lie with you little guy?"

   "No, no, that's not what I meant!" Zhao Guoyang waved his hands repeatedly.

   "Okay, let's not talk about this! The ceremony should be over soon, and it's time for us to take a group photo on stage!"

  Zhao Guoyang gave a "hmm" and nodded repeatedly.

  After the company's inauguration ceremony, Mao Zhichun cheerfully advised the two leaders, Huang *chang and Fang, to ask the leaders if they should go to the guest house of Songqi Group for a light meal.

   There is no way, the Huaxia Automobile Group Company has just been established, and the guest house has not been opened yet.

  Chairman Mao can only do the next best thing, please let the leaders go and go to Songqi Group.

  After listening to Chairman Mao's words, Mayor Huang was just about to ask for the opinions of the leaders below, when Li Kejian spoke up.
