While Ludendorff was helping Schlieffen continue to improve his plan, Edel in Romania was also preparing to contribute to the tragic battle of World War I.
In the palace in Bucharest, the four giants of Volkswagen are also waiting for the crown prince's summons. Now Volkswagen is the dominant presence in the European automobile market. Ninety percent of the truck and bus markets use Volkswagen products. In the private car market
The Model T car has failed its European counterparts, and now Volkswagen is synonymous with the European automobile industry.
"Francisco, do you think His Highness is going to expand production when he calls us to meet this time?" Deraspa asked the sales manager. As the production manager, Deraspa is most concerned about whether the equipment and workers can meet production needs.
"Delaspa, please don't talk nonsense in the palace." General Manager Minoba scolded this reckless guy. Faced with the reprimand from his boss, Draspa also realized that something was wrong. After reprimanding the production manager,
Minoba turned to Tuslid, the R&D director who had been sitting there in a daze, and said, "Hi, Tuslid. Do you think the crown prince summoned us to ask us to develop new models?"
"It should be, otherwise why would you summon me?" The R&D director briefly gave his answer.
As expected of being the general manager of Volkswagen, Minoba still has a certain understanding of the crown prince. He also has a clear understanding of the current situation of Volkswagen. The great development of the automobile industry caused by Volkswagen and Ford has aroused great interest from capital.
In France, Renault Automobile Company has received a large amount of investment, and the two major German automobile companies have also received capital injections from the banking industry. In Europe, many funds are investing in the automobile industry with the intention of getting a share of the pie.
As the largest and most advanced automobile company in Europe, Volkswagen has also become the target of many inspirational people who want to make it big in the automobile industry. Now the most direct way for many automobile companies is to poach employees. As the general manager, Minoba not only has to worry about the company
His subordinates were poached, and even he himself received many letters hoping that he could join and promised to give him a lot of shares, which made Minoba dumbfounded.
While several people were discussing the purpose of the Crown Prince summoning them, a guard came over and said to them, "His Highness invites you in."
Several people stopped talking, and after tidying up their appearance, Minoba led a group of people to meet with the crown prince. In the corridor, they met Industry Minister Karaturi, who had just met the crown prince. Edel kept his promise and brought this very capable person to the meeting.
The former mayor of Ploiesti was transferred to the position in charge of industrial development. He also politely gave way to ministers who could influence their enterprises and said hello.
"I have met His Excellency, Minister of Industry."
"It's Minoba, His Highness is waiting for you. Come in quickly." Karaturi also said to them with a cheerful expression, and walked out without stopping.
A group of people walked into the Crown Prince's office and saw Edel who was waiting for them. Under the leadership of Minoba, everyone saluted the Crown Prince and said, "I have met His Highness."
"Minopa called you here this time mainly to commend you for your excellent management of Volkswagen. I decided to reward you with 5% of the company's dividend. (Minopa 2% and the other three 1% each)" Edel was very happy
Speak directly.
Edel also knows that Volkswagen has been poaching people since it launched the Model T car. Edel may not care about other middle and low-level managers, but Edel still cares about these four elites who have led Volkswagen to the current situation.
. Just after several months of testing, they all showed enough loyalty to Volkswagen, which was also a reward for their loyalty.
"Thank you, Your Highness." The four people said excitedly. As managers of Volkswagen, no one knows better than them. Based on the current excellent performance of Volkswagen, the 1% dividend is more than 10,000 pounds. As additional income, there are
What are you dissatisfied with?
Edel saw the four people who were very excited, and now it's time to put some pressure on Wan Tianzao. "Now Volkswagen needs to redesign a 3-5 ton heavy-duty truck. It requires simple operation, easy maintenance, and the ability to adapt to complex terrain.
It would be better if the failure rate could be lowered. It would be best to design it as a truck with a load capacity of 5 tons. If not, just design it as a truck with a load capacity of 3 tons."
The four of them were a little startled when they heard the Crown Prince's request. This requirement, which was considered the main transport vehicle during World War II, frightened the elites of the public. As expected, it was difficult to get the Crown Prince's money.
"Your Highness's request is a bit high, isn't it?" Tuslid, as the director of research and development, knew that he was the only one who could answer the crown prince's request at this time.
"Is it enough for me to give you four years?" Edel said to Tuslid.
Faced with the Crown Prince's questioning, R&D director Tuslied repeatedly calculated in his mind, and after thinking for a while, he said, "I can try it in four years, and the price won't be too cheap."
"Okay, I'll celebrate for you in advance." Edel blocked their retreat.
After walking out of the crown prince's office, the three asked Tuslid, the director of research and development. "You really have a way. This is not a joke."
As senior executives of Volkswagen, they all have a high level of understanding of the current automotive industry, and they are quick to learn about the emergence of new technologies. Edel's requirements can be said to be full of difficulties, and they have no reason not to worry.
"Don't worry, if I didn't have that ability, I would never agree. Increasing the load capacity is nothing more than strengthening the structure of the vehicle, increasing the power output of the engine, and adapting to complex terrain can increase the stress area between the car and the ground, which means increasing the tires
.For easy operation, we have Dongfeng Motor as a reference for easy maintenance. This is a troublesome problem, but it should be solved in four years."
Everyone heard Tuslid's words and believed that he could find a solution. In his heart, the technical director knew that things were not as easy as he said, so he had no choice but to go back and work overtime on research and development.
After returning to the Volkswagen factory in Constanta, everyone dispersed and was busy with their own affairs. Tuslid returned to the R&D center and summoned researchers to tell them the crown prince’s request. After hearing the crown prince’s high demands, everyone
There was a lot of discussion.
Tuslid didn't look very good at it, so he shouted loudly to the people below, "Okay, don't talk anymore, the task has been set, we just need to do it as required."
After seeing the quiet staff, Stullid also arranged tasks for his subordinates. "Bisaya, lead your group of people to study the vehicle steel frame structure. I hope your structure can withstand a load of ten tons."
"Okay, I will focus on this in the next time." The group leader named Bisaya replied.
After receiving the reply, Sturlid continued to arrange the work of others. "Tukel, please lead your group of people to do a tire load-bearing experiment, also with a load-bearing capacity of ten tons, to see how much area is needed to prevent it from falling into
ground."
Stullied successively arranged the research directions of other people. From these directions, it can be seen that he used ten tons as the overall vehicle and load capacity, which was quite reasonable in this era.
After allocating the people one by one, he walked up to an Asian man and said, "Super King, now you will be my assistant and report the progress of their team to me every day. I need to grasp the precise progress so that I can
Achieve the desired results within the stipulated time.”
"Okay supervisor." The young man named Wang Chaoqiang replied.
As a self-financed international student, Wang Chaoqiang still had some financial resources in his hometown in Hanyang, and he was admitted to the Technical University of Berlin due to his studious nature. While studying at the Technical University of Berlin, he got to know cars. He originally planned to finish his studies, like everyone else.
He returned to China to serve the motherland. However, the great development of automobiles that occurred in advance allowed him to see the huge potential of an emerging industry.
He resolutely refused and returned to China immediately, planning to learn technology at the largest car manufacturer in Europe before returning to help his suffering motherland. His high enough academic qualifications helped him successfully enter the Volkswagen R&D department, and he happened to meet an unknown person.
A good leader who discriminates against him. In the R&D center, Tuslid only cares about your ability and never asks who you are.
This made Wang Chaoqiang very grateful to his supervisor and very happy that he could learn the most advanced automotive technology.
While the public was busy responding to Eder's request, the crown prince also turned his attention to surrounding hot spots.
