Chapter 45 If you don’t come back, I’ll have to come over by myself
In this era, there is still a big gap between China and the world in terms of the vehicle design process.
Strictly speaking, most of the vehicles produced by China are copied and developed based on products such as Polar Bear or American, or are slightly improved on other people's products.
As in later generations, there is no development process that starts from early market research, continues to the production of various clay models, design evaluation at each stage, and finally conducts multiple prototype vehicle trials before going into mass production. People understand.
But Jiang Hui understands!
In his previous life, he was a senior automotive engineer and participated in the development of various models.
He has visited almost all of the mainstream auto parts companies in China.
As long as the information and content he has been exposed to are still fresh in his mind.
In this case, the upgrade of BJ212 is really not a big problem for him.
In terms of appearance, just take out the new generation BJ212 from BAIC.
This BJ212 still has a hint of the first-generation BJ212 in it, but it has been greatly upgraded, and the aesthetics has been improved countless times.
Jiang Hui felt that as long as this design plan was presented, it would be impossible for anyone to deny it.
"Tomorrow I will arrange the specific design work of the parts as much as possible, and then draw a sketch of the appearance first."
"After the factory confirms that there is no problem with the sketch, I will start immediately Make a clay model.”
“In this way, we can hopefully determine the general appearance in September.”
Clay models may be a bit unfamiliar to people outside the automotive industry.
But if you want to design a car, normally there is absolutely no way to skip this link.
Of course, when the first-generation BJ212 was developed in the early days, it was completely copied from here and there. Naturally, there was no clay model or anything like that.
Now that Jiang Hui, a person with a professional background, is responsible for development work, the clay model is an indispensable link.
And when the model is produced, it will give everyone a more intuitive understanding.
After seeing the impact of the appearance of the new generation BJ212, everyone will have more confidence in the project.
“Clay model?”
“Only a few skilled workers at FAW and Second Automobile Works can make this thing. There shouldn’t be anyone who can do it at the Capital Automobile Factory. ?”
As an automobile expert, Zhu Jiansheng naturally knows the importance of clay models.
But this thing is still a relatively unfamiliar thing in China.
Even FAW only began to apply a brand-new material such as sludge to automobile design in the 1970s, but the final results were not satisfactory.
"It doesn't matter, I will make a 1:5 clay model first, which will be much easier."
"The appearance of all the models is in my mind. When the time comes, as long as I have With two or three people helping out, we can get it out in half a month."
Jiang Hui's face was full of confidence.
A 1:1 clay model usually takes four people about three months to complete.
Of course, most of the time here is spent tinkering with the appearance and constantly improving it.
Otherwise, the main outlines can actually be drawn out in a month.
Now he is just making a 1:5 model. Jiang Hui has a very clear design plan in his mind. It will be faster just to implement it into the clay model.
If it weren’t for the fact that the time frame was too short, which would make Zhu Jiansheng untrustworthy, Jiang Hui would have simply said that he could do it within a week.
"The college is very interested in this cooperation project. After I go back, I will bring several associate professors and assistant professors with relatively good level in the department to join the project team." "Those junior fellow students of yours, although Most people are not good at it, but you can find a few who can barely do it.”
"At that time, I will ask them to cooperate with you in the development of the new generation BJ212."
Zhu Jiansheng is putting his reputation on the BJ212 upgrade project.
If it succeeds, it will naturally become famous and become a famous name in the Chinese automobile industry.
If you fail, it will be a completely different ending.
"Dad, I am cooperating with you to develop the new generation of BJ212."
"These design plans of mine were completed under your guidance."
Jiang Hui knew that with the current My own influence cannot reap such huge benefits.
Leaving the bulk of the meat to your father-in-law, and using the power of others to eat a few pieces of meat is already a very ideal result.
Zhu Jiansheng naturally understands this.
So he didn't worry too much, "Then I'll be cheeky for a while and work with you to get this project started as soon as possible."
"After the project ends, no matter where you, the liaison officer, go There is absolutely no problem if the design department returns to the technical department, at least to the position of deputy section chief. "
In state-owned enterprises, the position is too low and there are many things that cannot be done.
So it is very important to raise Jiang Hui's level as soon as possible.
Along the way, Weng and his son-in-law had a good discussion about the upgrade of BJ212, and unknowingly returned to the dormitory building of the health center.
"Dad, Linlin didn't know you were coming over today, so I guess I didn't cook for you."
"You wait here for a while, I'll buy two steamed buns from the restaurant next door."
My father-in-law will need at least more than an hour to return to the Capital Institute of Technology. He has already arrived at the dormitory building of the health center. He must be invited to come up and finish his meal first.
In this regard, Zhu Jiansheng was not polite, waved his hand directly and said: "Okay, it is difficult to have the opportunity to taste Linlin's craftsmanship at home, but I have benefited from you today."
Jiang Hui said he was buying a few steamed buns, but in fact he didn’t just buy two steamed buns.
When he returned to the dormitory gate ten minutes later, there was already a roast chicken and steamed buns wrapped in oil paper in the bicycle basket.
Zhu Jiansheng didn't say much. The two of them entered the yard together, parked their bicycles, and returned to their dormitory amidst the curious eyes of some neighbors.
"Dad, why are you here?"
When Zhu Lin heard the voice, he didn't expect that his father would actually come back with his husband.
“Why, you’re not welcome?”
Zhu Jiansheng walked in with a smile, put down his briefcase, and found a stool to sit on.
"Looking at what you said, I was just a little surprised."
Zhu Lin scolded, picked up a bowl, and poured a bowl of water for Zhu Jiansheng from the thermos.
"You have only come back once since you moved out."
"If you don't come back, I will have to come here by myself."
Zhu Jiansheng is not a traditional, unsmiling old scholar.
It is normal for me to occasionally joke with my daughter.
