Chapter 47: Shocked
It rained heavily in the middle of the night yesterday, and the air was much fresher when I went out in the morning.
Jiang Hui rubbed his waist from time to time and rode his bicycle towards the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant.
The upgrade of BJ212 has become increasingly clear.
He is ready to roll up his sleeves and go for it!
After finishing his breakfast quickly, he returned to the conference room and found that Hou Guomin and Chen Chenxing had already arrived.
After briefly arranging the tasks for the two of them today, Jiang Hui began to plan the work for the next week.
Then I picked up a pencil and sketched the appearance of the new generation BJ212.
For Jiang Hui, who already had something in mind, it was not that difficult to draw a few sketches.
Seeing that it was time to go to work, he went directly to Lu Jianqiang's office with the sketch.
"Director Lu, these are some of my thoughts on the appearance of the new generation BJ212. Please help me check them first."
To make a clay model, you definitely can't make it in the current conference room. You need a special venue. .
Before that, Lu Jianqiang and the others had to be interested.
"Do you know how to do exterior design work?"
Lu Qiangqiang was surprised and took the sketch handed over by Jiang Hui.
Even though they are all car design work, appearance design and component design are completely different things.
The exterior designers of various automobile companies are mostly liberal arts students who graduated from art schools, and they are completely different from the engineers who design parts.
That’s why Lu Qiangqiang feels strange.
Of course, Jiang Hui has brought the sketch over, and he will definitely take a look at it anyway.
However, at this sight, his eyes could no longer move away.
The sketch in front of me is designed for the new generation BJ212.
Its appearance retains the classic design elements of the current BJ212, and also inherits the elements that a hardcore off-road vehicle should have.
The engine hood, front face, and square shape are all somewhat similar to the current ones, but they look much more fashionable.
The key is that Lu Qiang found that these design drawings were not just random drawings, but various details were drawn very carefully.
For example, the anti-aircraft lights on the front of the car can be seen as a lot of thought.
As the name suggests, anti-aircraft lights are characterized by having a lampshade on top, which can prevent the effect of vehicle lights from being observed from above.
In these sketches by Jiang Huihua, as long as the anti-aircraft lights can be seen, all the lampshades are drawn.
This is obviously a matter of effort.
Five or six sketches show the appearance of the new generation BJ212 from the front, side, back and other angles, which makes people want to stop looking at it.
“Xiao Jiang, you drew this sketch so quickly?”
After pondering for seven or eight minutes, Lu Jianqiang rubbed his sore eyes and raised his head to talk to Jiang Hui.
He felt that he had underestimated Jiang Hui's strength, but he didn't expect that he still underestimated it in the end.
“Although the sketch was only drawn today, the specific concept started the day we entered the factory.”
“I just didn’t expect that this time I would catch up with the BJ212 It’s an upgrade project, so I thought about taking it out quickly to see if it would be useful.”
Jiang Hui explained modestly.
Anyway, when he said it was done, that’s when it was done.
There is no need to say that I just started thinking about it this morning and then came up with it.
That would do no good.
“Useful, so useful!”
“Let’s go directly to Mr. Chen!”
Lu Jianqiang didn't waste any time, got up and took the drawings, and went to find Chen Qi with Jiang Hui.
Chen Qi was about to go to the meeting when he was blocked by Lu Jianqiang.
"Mr. Chen, please wait a moment. I have a big news to report to you in advance." Lu Jianqiang was very satisfied with the sketches designed by Jiang Hui.
While perfectly inheriting the excellent genes of the current BJ212, it also makes it so fashionable and atmospheric.
He fell in love with this car just by looking at it.
This is not in vain when Jiang Hui originally promoted the appearance of the model.
There are models that are more domineering, more fashionable, even more attractive for research, and have a higher overall level than the current appearance.
Jiang Hui can draw it at any time.
But there is an issue of acceptance to consider.
Everyone is already accustomed to the appearance of this generation. If you suddenly make a big change, there will definitely be great controversy.
The most important thing is that if your appearance has too many various lines, the production difficulty is too high, and the mold cannot be made, there will be no way to implement the drawings in the end, and it will be meaningless.
For example, if there are a few more waist lines on the door panel, the overall look will be more domineering.
But in order to process these waist lines, the design and processing of the mold are much more difficult, and the yield of parts will also decrease.
This obviously does not meet the needs at this time.
The new model BJ212 will be chosen. The processing of all aspects of appearance parts is not very difficult.
Basically, you don’t have to worry about the supporting factory not being able to produce it after getting the drawings.
Judging from Lu Jianqiang’s reaction, Jiang Hui’s choice was completely correct.
After Chen Qi took over the drawings handed over by Lu Jianqiang, his reaction was no less than that of Lu Qianqiang.
I saw him staring wide-eyed for a while, then returned to his desk, picked up his reading glasses, and studied it carefully.
"Did Jiang Hui draw this appearance sketch?"
After a while, Chen Qi finally raised his head reluctantly.
He knew very well what level Lu Qiangqiang was.
If he could draw a sketch like this, he would have taken it out long ago and would not have waited until now.
"General Manager Chen, this is what I drew recently after communicating with the teacher and combining some of his suggestions."
At this time, Jiang Hui stood up and explained.
Chen Qi and Lu Jianqiang both felt good, and he was completely relieved.
With the guidance of professors from Capital Institute of Technology, this is a matter of course!
“After this sketch is drawn, what are you going to do next?”
“I want to make a 1:5 clay model. On the one hand, I want everyone to see the effect of the model. On the other hand, it is also to better draw the drawings of the body parts in the next step.”
"But to make a clay model, you need a special venue and purchase some raw materials."
Isn't this the purpose of Jiang Hui?
So he said it directly without any hesitation.
"Director Lu, isn't there a prototype car assembly room over there in the design department where all kinds of debris are stored?"
"Arrange for someone to clean it up today and make it available immediately. To be used for the design and trial production of the new BJ212. ”
"As for the materials needed for the clay model, Xiaojiang, please make a list, and I will immediately ask someone from the purchasing department to purchase them."
Chen Qi also acted in a rare and resolute manner.
He has a feeling that even if the upgrade of the BJ212 fails in the end, with this appearance design, the Capital Automobile Factory can get a lot of praise from its superiors.
Things like clay models can be used as important exhibits when leaders visit in the future.
“Okay, I will send you the list in a moment.”
"The first stage is to make a 1:5 clay model. If everyone confirms that there are no problems, a 1:1 clay model will be made, and then the drawings can be started."
Jiang When Hui said this, Chen Qi and Lu Jianqiang became even more interested.
