Chapter 3026 Angle
Li Zhongxin knew about Wang Bo's slim family. He felt that Wang Bo felt that it was useless to do this in advance, so he asked Ran Hongtu and others to sit together and discuss it.
Although Ran Hongtu is very strong in management and has a very high level, there is one thing that Ran Hongtu is not good, that is, he is too concerned about Zhongxin Company. It can be said that several people who are considering Zhongxin Company and want to save money for Zhongxin Company sit together to study whether to increase investment in the construction of engine production lines and transmission production lines, and give them a choice, and of course they will not be able to choose.
After all, Zhongxin Company's automotive engine research and development has been going on for nearly ten years. It has not produced a standard engine, even a gearbox. They always feel that it is not too late to increase procurement and production after researching these things.
"Loyalty! We have considered the one you said, but we have also considered the overall idea. We invested in building a home appliance plant, built all the home appliance plants, and got all the machines and equipment inside. The money can only be said to be equivalent to a fraction of the car engine production line.
Our Zhongxin Company now has a lot of money-making businesses, especially factories like small appliance factories. They can be said to be big money-making players. If we don’t build such factories and don’t mainly do these industries, but instead invest huge amounts of funds and energy into the production line of automobile engines that have not met the standards, then how do other people in our Zhongxin Company department think about it?
This is the reason for one aspect, and on the other hand, this is also the most important aspect.
You also know how fast the world's technology is developing rapidly, it can be said that it is changing with each passing day.
Our Zhongxin Company is developing automobile engines. We have invested billions or even tens of billions of dollars in research and development. Are there any companies in other automobile industries in the world who invest so much money to carry out research and development?
Their technical level is more mature than us, and their machinery and equipment is more mature than the machinery and equipment we have now.
If the engines here are developed and reached the world's standard level, foreign automobile companies have also developed engines, and they are updated and our engines can no longer keep up with the times. So, we have created so many machinery and equipment, and we still need to carry out large-scale production?
When the cost-effectiveness is similar, do you think there are any advantages for us to produce such an engine?
Another point is that even if the engine test run is successful, we still need to debug various machinery and equipment and conduct large-scale tests on the engines produced in large quantities, which will take a long time." After listening to Li Zhongxin's words, Ran Hongtu started to speak seriously to Li Zhongxin.
Wang Bo and Ran Hongtu and others have discussed the things that Li Zhongxin said. After all, making car engines is a kind of thing that costs money in a crazy way. Moreover, it is not certain that the machine will be outdated, and new models of engines with new materials have begun to appear in the world. By that time, the purchased production equipment has not met expectations. What should we do with those production equipment?
Can it be said that after spending a lot of money to buy it, and then starting a big sale, that is the typical behavior of a prodigal son?
Wang Bo and Ran Hongtu both knew that Li Zhongxin was the kind of person who had very high requirements, especially in terms of automobile engines and gearboxes, which had much higher requirements than those Chinese automobile companies. Otherwise, the engines after the second test run could be mass-produced. The engines for the second test run were already better than most domestic engines in China at this time and had a long lasting endurance, but they did not meet the international standards. Because of this reason, they were expended by Li Zhongxin.
So, it is still unknown whether the engine that was tested for the third time can pass the engine level, whether it can reach the engine level of those automobile companies in the world at this time, and whether it can reach Li Zhongxin's satisfaction.
And it is also true that after the engine is successfully tested, it will take a long time of experimental debugging to mass production. It is definitely not what Li Zhongxin said. As long as the test run is successful, the assembly line can be directly produced.
If one or two engines are produced, the quality may be 100% guaranteed. However, if you produce multiple engines, the quality may not be the same as this and two engines. There are many processes, such as press-fitting valve oil seals, installing discharge doors, installing valve lock clips, installing rocker assembly, installing discharge manifolds, etc., as well as some installing crankshafts, main bearings, etc. In short, it is very difficult to make a production line for automobile engines.
"The things you said are correct, and these are objective facts. If I were in your place, I would have thought the same way as you." Li Zhongxin pinched his chin with one hand and said this to Ran Hongtu, he changed his mind and continued to speak: "But, in this matter, it is a different idea from my perspective.
First of all, the funding issue you mentioned is that our Zhongxin Company is developing so rapidly now. Even the Zhongxin Research Base is in a profitable state. We are not short of money or funds at all.
If the advance quantity can be done well, then once the engine is developed, we will be able to mass-produce it as quickly as possible. This is a matter of time. Sooner or later, we will produce qualified mass-produced automotive engines.
The reason I say this is because I know in my heart that if our Zhongxin Company can mass-produce automobile engines as quickly as possible and put them into the market, by that time, the quality of domestic engines will be very good, and even the performance in various aspects will exceed the level of engines in developed countries in Europe and the United States. Then, in the future, people in our country will have a huge sense of trust in our country's domestic cars.
