Chapter 690 Set up a technical school?
Coming out of the test field, President Wang tentatively asked Zhang Qihang: "Mr. Zhang, have you never thought about going further than the gearbox on construction machinery?"

"Going one step further... you mean the whole car?"

"Yes," Zhang Qihang said directly beyond Mr. Wang's imagination, but since Zhang Qihang was so straightforward, he didn't go around in circles, and said frankly: "Mr. Zhang, look, you have now imported their diesel engines from Isuzu. , plus the gearbox you have researched yourself, for you, the most core systems on a loader and excavator are only the hydraulic system, and the hydraulic system is not that difficult to be honest. so……"

To be honest, Mr. Wang has been thinking about this question for a while: After having the production capacity of engines and gearboxes, will Huateng Industrial Group become a competitor of Lingong someday in the future?

I can't help Mr. Wang thinking so. You know, the core components of a construction machinery are the engine, gearbox and hydraulic mechanism. The current Huateng Industrial Group can produce the high-power diesel engines most needed by construction machinery, and can produce domestic The hydraulic automatic transmission that cannot be produced by any other construction machinery supporting unit, for Huateng Industrial Group, they can produce two of the three core systems on an excavator/loader, and as for the hydraulic system... …

Since Zhang Qihang was able to lure Andrei Ivanov, an expert in hydraulic torque converters and gearboxes, from the former Soviet Road Construction and Construction Machinery Research Institute, couldn't he poach the former Soviet Union Road Construction and Construction Machinery Research Institute? Is the Soviet Union an expert in construction machinery hydraulic systems?
Although the former Soviet Union lagged behind its counterparts in Europe, America and Japan in terms of overall technical level of construction machinery, it was much better than China, and relying on the contacts they had accumulated in advance, Mr. Wang believed that as long as Zhang Qihang had this idea, he could make It is not difficult to find a qualified excavator and loader.

But in this way, Lingong's life will be difficult. Compared with Huateng Industrial Group, which can independently produce the three major systems on construction machinery and can effectively control costs, Lingong has three major systems in the engine, gearbox and hydraulic pressure. The system is all relying on outsourcing. To put it bluntly, Lingong is an assembly plant.It would be fine if it was competing with other domestic counterparts, but competing with Huateng Industrial Group...

Mr. Wang is really not particularly confident: it seems that Lingong can't play with others.

Now that Mr. Wang has already mentioned this, Zhang Qihang did not hide it, nodded and said: "Mr. Wang, to tell you the truth, I have really thought about this issue, and even some comrades in our unit have mentioned similar things to me. Suggest."

really!

President Wang's heart skipped a beat.

Zhang Qihang's answer did not surprise Mr. Wang. In fact, in his opinion, if the executives of Huateng Industrial Group can't see this, they are unqualified, but the meaning in Zhang Qihang's words seems to be Yes……

Thinking of this, Mr. Wang's heart moved, and he tentatively asked Zhang Qihang: "Mr. Zhang, what do you mean..."

Zhang Qihang didn't go around in circles, and said directly: "I refused, I decided not to do this project."

"You declined?"

Although Zhang Qihang had already guessed the result when Zhang Qihang opened his mouth, but after confirming this point, Mr. Wang was still a little surprised and his mood was complicated for a while.

"Yes, I refused," Zhang Qihang nodded and said, "I told everyone, there are so many ways to make money in this world, should we try each of them? There is only one result, and that is greed. Too much chewing! Huateng Industry is talking about being able to produce engines and gearboxes. This is true, but we can definitely learn from our practice in small gasoline engines and become a professional engine and gearbox supplier in the field of construction machinery. business……"

Speaking of this, Zhang Qihang glanced at Mr. Wang, and suddenly laughed: "But Mr. Wang, should we cooperate more in the future?"

Huateng Industrial Group did not intend to enter the construction machinery market, and Mr. Wang breathed a sigh of relief: the thing he was most worried about was finally gone.He nodded immediately: "That's easy to say, nothing else, I can trust the quality of Isuzu's engine..."

Speaking of this, he paused for a while, and then said: "Well, Mr. Zhang, as long as you can provide it and the price is suitable, we will purchase it from your unit in the future."

In fact, Lingong also held a meeting to discuss this matter before, thinking that since Lingong will have the opportunity to purchase the automatic transmission for construction machinery produced by Huateng Industrial Group in the future, it is best to directly purchase the engine produced by Huateng-Isuzu.

Naturally, there are many good things in this way. On the one hand, Lingong has given up profits to Huateng Group in this way. You, Zhang Qihang, are always embarrassed to make a whole car, right?On the other hand, both the engine and gearbox come from one company, and the quality control is also guaranteed, not to mention that the distance between the two units is so close, the freight alone can save a lot.

Zhang Qihang was immediately happy: "That's a good thing."

Because of this incident, the sense of distance between the two has decreased a lot. Mr. Wang lit a cigarette and took two puffs, as if he had something to say to Zhang Qihang.

Seeing Mr. Wang's hesitant look, Zhang Qihang didn't rush and waited quietly.

Fortunately, Mr. Wang didn't make Zhang Qihang wait for too long. After smoking half a cigarette, Mr. Wang said: "Mr. Zhang, your ability in business management is counted among all the people in Langya City, and there is no one who does not admire you. I have an idea here, and I want you to help me as a staff officer."

That's what happened...

Zhang Qihang, who was curious about Mr. Wang's hesitation and entanglement just now, said with a smile: "I dare not be a staff officer. It must be something that makes you so entangled, Mr. Wang, right?"

"It can't be too big." Now that he had already planned to tell Zhang Qihang, Mr. Wang no longer hesitated, and said cheerfully: "That's the case. I am going to set up a technician school that focuses on construction machinery training. Mr. Zhang What do you think? Did you mess up?"

Mr. Wang plans to run a technician school focusing on construction machinery training?
Zhang Qihang really didn't expect Mr. Wang to have such an idea. He thought for a while and asked, "Then what is your original intention for this technical school? To make money? Or to use this opportunity to promote your Lingong's products? "

"There must be some," Mr. Wang said without concealing his thoughts, "Mr. Zhang, you know that our provincial TV station broadcasts advertisements of 'Learning which is the best excavator' every day. If I watch too many, I will I have an idea: now there is such a large demand for drivers and personnel of professional construction machinery such as excavators and loaders in the society, and we are a professional manufacturer of construction machinery. Since others can earn this money, why do we Temporary workers can not earn?

In addition, I am thinking that if the students first come into contact with our excavators and loaders, as long as our products give them a good impression, then when they buy cars for themselves in the future, they will also choose us with a high probability. Temporary products. "

Zhang Qihang nodded: "That's the truth."

This is for sure, people will always have a deeper impression on the things they come into contact with for the first time, just like the first joint venture brand car that many Chinese people come into contact with is Santana, which directly leads to the following years. In China, Chinese people think that Volkswagen is a high-end brand, and Santana is their first choice when buying a car. Even in 2020, many people will choose Volkswagen as their first choice when buying a car. This is the powerful effect of first impressions.

"Really?" Zhang Qihang agreed with his own thoughts, and Mr. Wang was also very happy. He nodded excitedly and said: "And I should think about it. Our Langya City has nearly ten million people, and nearly [-]% of them are rural population. , how many rural children are there?

Among these children, there are still a few who are promising and can be admitted to technical secondary schools or universities, but what about those who did not?You can't continue to be a farmer all your life like their elders, facing the loess and back to the sky, right?
Of course, I am not saying that farmers are bad, but if young people have a certain amount of knowledge and culture, if you let them work as farmers at home, I am afraid they will not do it themselves. They can learn a skill, whether it is driving an excavator, a beauty salon, or learning to cook, it is much better than being a farmer..."

Zhang Qihang understood. Comrade Wang meant that these children in Langya City alone are enough to support a vocational skills training school. Of course, Zhang Qihang also thought so, and he smiled and said: "So you just think To learn from the school in Shungeng City, to set up a technical school that mainly focuses on construction machinery operation training, and also includes cooking, beauty and hairdressing and other subjects?"

"Yes."

"It's a good thing," Zhang Qihang didn't understand: "I think the leaders in the city should also agree with this matter, right? Or are you talking about Mr. Wang, have you encountered any difficulties that you can't solve?"

"I don't hide it anymore," Mr. Wang said with some embarrassment: "It's okay if it's just teaching cooking, beauty salon, pastry, etc., but if you count construction machinery driving skills training, cars and motorcycles For car maintenance, the investment of the entire school may be tens of millions..."

Zhang Qihang finally understood why Mr. Wang had such an expression: Lingong wanted to do this project, but was short of money!
But it was also because of this that he didn't understand: "Mr. Wang, with all due respect, your Lingong made a net profit of tens of millions last year. The investment of tens of millions should not be a big problem for you, right? Even if your finances are tight, depending on how healthy you Lingong is financially, it should be easy to get a bank loan."

"That's not the case," Mr. Wang sighed, and explained to Zhang Qihang: "The investment scale of this project is too large. If we do this project, it means that half a year's profit will be lost for Lingong Group."

"That's not enough, right?" Zhang Qihang still didn't understand: "As long as this vocational skills training school can be established, it will have an immeasurable role in promoting the future development of Lingong. It might become Lingong's second leg, so I can't take it too seriously."

"You're right," Mr. Wang said with a wry smile, "but our Lingong is a company 100% owned by the state-owned assets management department of Langya City, so the benefits that this project can bring to Lingong are visible to the naked eye, but for In terms of the use of funds, we Lingong actually don’t have much autonomy..."

That's it!

Hearing Mr. Wang's words, Zhang Qihang was also speechless. At the same time, he finally understood why Mr. Wang wanted to pull Huateng Industrial Group into this project. Who made Huateng Industrial Group rich?

Suddenly Zhang Qihang was quite optimistic about this project, he nodded happily: "Mr. Wang, have you calculated the approximate investment required?"

"About 2000 million." After finishing speaking, Mr. Wang hurriedly explained: "This is the cost of renting the site. If we build a brand new campus and purchase new teaching equipment, it is conservatively estimated that at least 5000 million will be needed, but in the early stage , we can rent the venue first.”

Zhang Qihang didn't hesitate, he nodded cheerfully: "Sure, I'm quite interested in this project, so, Mr. Wang, you can give me a copy of the project plan later, okay?"

Mr. Wang didn't expect Zhang Qihang to agree so happily. He was overjoyed and nodded hurriedly: "Okay! No problem! I'll send you the project proposal later."

What makes Mr. Wang most happy is that as long as Zhang Qihang is willing to intervene in this project, he has a great chance of being able to convince the leaders of the city's state-owned assets management department: Even Zhang Qihang is optimistic about the project, why do you hesitate?
........................

After returning from Temporary Work, Zhang Qihang told Feng Guoqing about Mr. Wang and his proposal to jointly organize a skills training school, but Feng Guoqing's eyes widened before Zhang Qihang finished speaking: " This is a good thing. With a population of nearly ten million in Langya City, we don't have to worry about not being able to recruit students...By the way, Mr. Zhang, since we want to teach construction machinery, we should just apply directly to the city to train drivers. Let’s do it together.”

"Driver training?"

"Yes," Feng Guoqing said, "You don't know how many people outside want to learn to drive but can't find a way. If our vocational skills training school can teach driving, let me tell you, this project alone can Make a lot of money."

Yes, driving school!
Zhang Qihang slapped his head, full of annoyance: How could I even forget this?
Driving school training will be a hot business in the future. Almost every county has a driving school. At the prefecture-level city level, at least five or six driving schools can be found. It seems that Langya City has no social-oriented ones. As for the driving skill training institution, if Huateng Group can take this opportunity to carry out the driver training together, it will be a win-win situation for both economic and social benefits!

"Old Feng, you reminded me," Zhang Qihang nodded excitedly: "This is indeed a good project, we must do it!"
