Chapter 167 The big guys gather together and Jiang Hui makes his official debut
The design plan of the new BJ212 that Jiang Hui came up with is originally a relatively mature product.
Prototype production has been carried out twice before, and now it has been transferred to the mass production line for assembly. Although the workers were a little busy on the first day of small-scale mass production and were not used to it, but soon Everyone got used to it.
After all, although many parts have been upgraded between these two products, some basic assembly processes have not changed.
As long as you adapt to the initial rhythm, it will be much easier to get used to it later.
In three days, 100 small-scale mass-produced new BJ212s officially rolled off the production line.
The parking lot is full of rows of car models, which looks very eye-catching.
Both Zheng Haiming and Chen Qi are very ambitious at this time, preparing to work hard in the next year and further upgrade their positions.
“Xiaojiang, this offline ceremony was attended by more leaders than we thought. In addition to leaders from ministries and commissions, there are also managers from FAW, Second Automobile Works and other automobile plants. They will all attend.”
“There will definitely be someone who can give everyone a good introduction to our products.”
"The factory committee discussed it and decided that it is most appropriate to hand over the responsibility to a young man like you."
Seeing that the new BJ212 would be off the production line in a few days, Zheng Haiming called Jiang Hui When I got to my office, I made a surprising decision.
Normally speaking, the organizational process of this kind of activity is very particular.
Relevant work is generally arranged according to the level of the position.
Now that Zheng Haiming directly arranges for himself, that is really a care.
"Director, are people from FAW, Second Automobile Works and other automobile factories also coming here?"
When it comes to this matter, Jiang Hui thought of FAW and Second Automobile Works' desire to win the Hummer project.
This time the other party’s factory director personally came to the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant to participate in the event. Will he say anything else?
This is a question Jiang Hui has to consider.
If there is no preparation, there will inevitably be some mistakes.
"Yes, this matter was arranged by the Machinery Department. Director Qin called me directly and told me that it was the leadership of the department, so we had to comply."
"But it is confidential content of our factory. It will definitely not be easy for them to see."
Zheng Haiming briefly explained to Jiang Hui.
To be honest, if it weren't for the invitation from the First Machinery Department, Zheng Haiming himself wouldn't want people from FAW and Second Automobile Works to come and participate in the activities of the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant.
The other party's administrative level is higher than his own, and everyone is still traveling together. In Zheng Haiming's opinion, such a guest is completely a bad guest.
However, if the competent department of the First Machinery Department wanted to invite the other party over, it would be difficult for him to refute even if he was not willing.
“It’s not a bad thing to let them come and experience the mass production of our new BJ212.”
“Maybe they won’t dare to look down on us so easily in the future.”
Jiang Hui was not surprised at all by this matter. After all, the First Machinery Department must have had some considerations of their own.
Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant is just a car factory under the First Machinery Department.
Across the country, there are actually quite a few car companies that are not operating very well.
"You are right, I will leave the host's job to you."
Zheng Haiming is not short of such an opportunity to appear.
For him, getting the new BJ212 off the production line smoothly and quickly expanding its influence is more important than anything else.
……
While the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant was going all out to prepare for the mass production off-line ceremony of the new BJ212, Geng Weidong, Yu Jiang, Wang Le and others were in a sleeper car on a train from Chuncheng to the capital. We are also discussing this car.
“Last year, 149,000 vehicles were produced nationwide, and FAW completed the annual production plan of 58,000 vehicles 15 days ahead of schedule, producing 58,227 vehicles throughout the year, creating the highest daily output and the best average daily output. "
"But we produce almost all trucks. From the time Hongqi sedan was put into production in 1965 to now, we have only produced about 1,000 vehicles."
"In today's reform and opening up era. Under the current environment, vehicles in the future will definitely shift to civilian cars and the production of passenger cars such as sedans.”
“In this regard, Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant has an advantage over us.”
Geng Weidong has read a lot of information about the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant and BJ212 in the past two days.
In the past, Geng Weidong felt that only Second Automobile Works would pose a threat to FAW in the future.
But the other company has only been in production for a few years, and due to product planning issues, it only produced a few thousand trucks last year. There is still a big gap between it and FAW.
Originally, he thought that it would be a few years before FAW would face some challenges in the country.
I didn’t expect the situation to change so quickly.
This time, the First Machinery Department called to ask FAW to arrange personnel to participate in the mass production offline ceremony of the new BJ212. Geng Weidong thought for a while and prepared to lead the team to participate.
He wanted to take a closer look at the situation at the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant and find out what aspects of FAW's opponents were worth learning from. "Chang Geng, I heard that AMC in the United States is discussing with the First Machinery Department to establish a joint venture factory. The first object of investigation is the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant."
"Are we You can also communicate with the First Machinery Department to see if it is possible to hand over this project to FAW for discussion?”
Wang Le, director of the Design Department, rarely has the opportunity to report directly to Geng Weidong.
Now it is definitely time to seize the opportunity and perform well.
The chief engineer has personally given instructions on the joint venture to build a factory, so there is no problem with the direction.
It is entirely possible for FAW to take this opportunity to develop passenger cars and realize the parallel development of commercial vehicles and passenger cars.
As for whether this will make the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant unhappy, or put the First Machinery Department into a passive situation in negotiations with AMC, Wang Leke can't control that much.
“We at FAW are the first automobile manufacturer in China. The honor of establishing the first joint venture with an international automobile giant, I think, should also belong to us.”
"I think Wang Chu's idea is quite reasonable."
Yu Jiang also expressed his opinion there.
He felt Geng Weidong's determination to make some achievements within FAW.
At present, the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant has become the first batch of pilot manufacturers for factory power expansion reform. It is located in the capital and has many policy advantages that other factories cannot match.
Now that the momentum of the new BJ212 is so strong, it may indeed pose a huge threat to FAW's domestic position in the future.
This is a situation that Yu Jiang is very unwilling to see.
"Although there have been instructions from above regarding the joint venture factory, it is definitely not that simple to implement."
"I saw that the First Machinery Department has disappeared in a short period of time. There will be results, we can’t afford to wait!”
I have to say that as the head of FAW, Geng Weidong has a very good vision.
He could tell immediately that the negotiation between the First Machinery Department and AMC was destined to be a protracted negotiation.
Both sides have many concerns that need to be addressed.
If we talk about it for a few years, there will probably be no results.
“I heard that SAIC is also in contact with some international automobile giants and wants to give full play to their advantages in cars and take advantage of the reform to achieve rapid development of the car industry.”
“Now the First Machinery Department has begun to vigorously support the development of the car industry, and the trend is completely different from before.”
“Or we may not contact AMC and go overseas to inspect Volkswagen on our own. Is it possible for international automobile giants such as Toyota Motor or General Motors to cooperate with us in cars? ”
Seeing that Geng Weidong didn't seem to be so enthusiastic about the cooperation project with AMC, Wang Le immediately proposed another plan.
Anyway, he didn't have any confidence in letting the design department develop new products by himself.
In order to avoid this task falling on oneself, it is necessary to change the development focus of the factory to cooperate with international automobile giants as soon as possible and learn from their advanced product technologies.
“The First Machinery Department has been visiting various parts of the world since last year, and has contacted many automobile giants, and also invited some car company executives to come and inspect.”
“We at FAW As a leader in the domestic automobile industry, I think it is in line with the trend of reform and development to take the initiative to go abroad and look for more cooperation and development opportunities.”
Yu Jiang once again sided with Wang Le, endorsing his opinion.
This time, Geng Weidong finally felt a little moved, "When we get back from this business trip to the capital, we will discuss it in detail and see what to do!" Representatives of automobile manufacturers came to the capital, and the mass production off-line activities of the new BJ212, which has attracted much attention from the Chinese automobile industry, officially kicked off.
"Xiaojiang, don't be nervous later, just perform normally."
On such an important occasion today, Zhu Jiansheng, the nominal designer of the new BJ212, must also participate.
He had seen the list of leading guests attending today's offline ceremony, and knew that this event was full of big names in the Chinese automobile industry, with heads of competent departments and major industry players present.
In his opinion, Jiang Hui appeared on such an occasion not seeking merit but seeking no fault.
That's enough!
"Dad, don't worry, I know what I know!"
The last time the chief engineer came to inspect, Jiang Hui had already received him, and now there is nothing to be nervous about.
All he has is excitement!
Jiang Hui is not simply pursuing fame, but fame can make a lot of contributions to his future plans.
Especially in the future, many policies are not particularly stable, nor do they have very standardized systems.
In this case, the bonus effect of fame is very important.
For general policies, ministries and commissions dare not give it casually, but when it is given to an industry celebrity, the reasons are easier to find.
It’s always okay to demonstrate, right?
