Set sail1992

Chapter 693 Scheme
Jiang He was also a little moved, but besides being moved, he understood the key to this matter: Zhang Qihang was able to design a sufficiently good body and interior on the basis of the Isuzu bighorn chassis.So he looked at Zhang Qihang and said, "Mr. Zhang, look..."

Zhang Qihang shook his head helplessly, and said in a self-deprecating way: "Don't you have too much confidence in me?"

Everyone seems to be a little blindly confident in their abilities.

Jiang He laughed: "Mr. Zhang, I believe in you."

Following Jiang He, everyone expressed their opinions one after another: "I believe in you too."

"I trust you too."

"We all believe in you..."

…………

Zhang Qihang didn't agree or refuse: "Let's put this plan as an option... Well, besides this plan, do you have any other opinions?"

Really!
Yang Zhijun said: "Mr. Zhang, you said before that you want to develop a commercial vehicle with a relatively low positioning, which can be matched with the 'business class on land'. I don't know what the 'low' you mentioned looks like?"

Yup!

Yang Zhijun's words immediately reminded everyone: In addition to the Isuzu bighorn, Mr. Zhang also said that he wanted to make a commercial vehicle with a low positioning and match it with the "business class on land". Then the problem came, this What kind of "low" method is "low"?
Zhang Qihang nodded and said: "That's a good question, I guess everyone is also very concerned about this question, right?"

Everyone suddenly chuckled: Isn't that right? Even though everyone heard from Jiang He that Mr. Zhang has a plan to match the height with the cash "onshore business class", what is the "low" of this height match?

Zhang Qihang didn't go around in circles, and said directly: "Take this opportunity. Let me tell you about my vision for this relatively low-level commercial vehicle:
First of all, let’s talk about our “business class on land”. The body length of this car is about 5.2 meters. I call it a “full-size business car”. In my imagination, the low-end version of the The length of the body is about 4.8 meters, and the width of the body is about 1.8 meters. I am afraid to call this level of commercial vehicles "intermediate official vehicles".

If we launch two commercial vehicles at the same time, then the new low-end model will be called "Business Class on Land", and the "Business Class on Land" with a wider body after the facelift will be called "First Class on Land". Comrade Jiang He has explained everything to you, right? "

Seeing that everyone nodded to show that he understood, Zhang Qihang continued: "Different from the 2.4-liter and 3.0-liter engines of the 'Business Class on Land', this mid-level commercial vehicle has a smaller engine and will roughly carry our own The Honda F18A engine produced by the company is matched with five-speed manual and four-speed automatic transmissions in terms of gearboxes, and the main price range is 20 to 25.

According to the size of the body, you can see that the difference between this car and the "business class on land" is that the seating space inside the car is relatively smaller, but this "small" is also relatively speaking, roughly the same as our company's The interior space of Toyota Dabawang is similar.

And there is no doubt that the competitors of our mid-level commercial vehicle are also Toyota Dabawang and Chevrolet Bullet, and our advantage lies in the lower price under the premise of providing almost the same interior space... Well, now who has anything else to ask? "

As soon as Zhang Qihang's voice fell, Comrade Du Xing, who was in charge of Isuzu's work, immediately asked: "Mr. Zhang, do you have a preliminary idea for the design of this mid-level commercial vehicle?"

"Yes," Zhang Qihang nodded affirmatively, "I already have a draft."

Du Xing immediately asked again: "Then can you draw a sketch for us to see?"

Zhang Qihang frowned: "I'm not mature yet, forget it."

Du Xing hesitated for a while, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it after all, but nodded: "I'm fine."

Zhang Qihang nodded, then looked around the crowd, and asked, "Other comrades, does anyone have anything else to ask, or does anyone have any other ideas?"

"No, I think both ideas are good."

"I also think both ideas are pretty good."

"I think so too. I just think it's a pity to choose one of these two ideas. If these two projects can be launched together, it would be the best."

…………

Everyone expressed their opinions in a hurry. Basically, no one objected to these two models. Some people even thought that the two models should be launched together. Anyway, the current Huateng Industrial Group has money, and only Wang Zhengqiang kept frowning, as if he had a different opinion, but for some reason, he kept silent.

Wang Zhengqiang didn't speak, but Zhang Qihang noticed his confusion, and immediately smiled and called his name: "Comrade Wang Zhengqiang, do you seem to have something to say?"

Zhang Qihang had already noticed and called his name, Wang Zhengqiang no longer struggled, he pursed his lips, nodded vigorously and said, "I do have some immature ideas."

"If you have any ideas, just say it," Zhang Qihang encouraged, "One person thinks about the shortcomings, and three people think about the strengths. I don't dare to say that my ideas must be correct. Our meeting today is for brainstorming. "

As an old comrade who retired from the position of director of the Municipal Audit Bureau, Wang Zhengqiang can certainly tell whether Zhang Qihang is telling the truth or polite words. He was a little hesitant at first, but seeing that Zhang Qihang really wanted to hear his own thoughts , My heart suddenly warmed up a lot, so I stopped hiding it: "Mr. Zhang, and comrades, I think so: Although the demand for off-road vehicles and commercial vehicles is indeed great, in our country , the real best-selling car is still a car, why don't we make cars?"

As soon as Wang Zhengqiang finished speaking, Jiang He picked up the words: "Comrade Zhengqiang, it's not that we don't want to make cars, but that our group doesn't have the qualifications to produce cars..."

"I understand, I understand." Wang Zhengqiang nodded again and again: "Our group has the production qualification of passenger cars with the prefix '6'. To produce cars, it must be the production qualification with the prefix of '7'. We’re making SUVs around the corner, so why can’t we make cars the same way?”

"Using the way of cutting corners to produce cars?" Jiang He was stunned: "How can this thing play borderlines?"

Not only Jiang He was dumbfounded, but other comrades were also dumbfounded.

If you want to talk about playing off-road vehicles, it’s okay to say that we have created a seven-seater off-road vehicle based on the Isuzu bighorn. It is called "a small passenger car with certain off-road capabilities", which can barely be justified, but with a small car The production qualification of passenger cars beats the edge of small cars. How to beat this "edge"?
Wang Zhengqiang is full of confidence. The reason why he dared to propose such an idea must be somewhat certain: "I don't know if you have noticed that SAIC has a hatchback Santana sedan..."

Before Wang Zhengqiang finished speaking, Zhang Qihang suddenly realized: Santana travel version!
Zhang Qihang was very impressed with the Santana travel version. This car was launched in 1992. Although it sold as well as the Santana sedan version after it went on the market, it can’t stand the scarcity of cars in this era. In this Lian Alto In the era when hatchback Xiali can be sold out of stock, although the hatchback version of the Santana travel version is pleasing to the eyes of the sedan version, but this is Santana anyway, isn't it?So this version of Santana is also selling well.

Zhang Qihang thought of it, and the others naturally thought of it too. Xie Haiqiang immediately frowned and said, "I know that Santana you mentioned, but how do you play the edge ball?"

"It's simple," Wang Zhengqiang said, "I don't know if you remember that a few years ago, Guangzhou Z Peugeot once produced a sedan similar to the hatchback Santana. That car can seat 8 people. We can also produce a car similar to the Santana. A hatchback Santana, but a car that can seat seven or eight people, is known as a small passenger car to the outside world, do you think this edge ball can be played?"

Santana Travel Edition?

A Guangzhou Z Peugeot sedan that can seat eight people?

Everyone in the conference room, some have seen the Santana travel version, some have seen the hatchback version of the Peugeot sedan that Wang Zhengqiang mentioned, that is, the Peugeot 505SW, and some have seen both cars, and everyone immediately bowed their heads in thought, or talked with the side The people started discussing in low voices, and soon, everyone's expressions changed, and they gradually became excited...

"Mr. Zhang, I think it's okay," Jiang He, who was sitting next to Zhang Qihang, said to Zhang Qihang in an excited low voice, "Comrade Zhengqiang is right, we can totally follow the example of the Peugeot car and make him three Rows of seats, seven or eight seats, when the time comes, we will say that our car is a small passenger car, it is not unreasonable, the big deal is just a joke. But as long as it is done, we will make a lot of money, this is a car!"

There is no doubt that the market for sedans is much larger than that for off-road vehicles.

"That's the truth," Zhang Qihang also felt that what Jiang He said made sense, but stimulated by Wang Zhengqiang's words, Zhang Qihang's brain opened up a lot: "But I just had a new idea: why don't we How about trying to apply for a car production qualification with the prefix '7'?"

Ok?
Zhang Qihang's voice was not too loud but not too soft. Hearing Zhang Qihang's words, everyone was stunned.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Zhang Qihang no longer concealed his thoughts, and said: "Since everyone has heard it, I will tell you my thoughts:
We have never applied for the production qualification of cars before, because everyone knows that it is difficult to apply for the production qualification of cars. In addition, our country is engaged in the "three big three and three small", so we subconsciously feel that this qualification is not easy to apply for. I will not touch this wall, but I just suddenly realized that our Huateng Industrial Group is not completely without the opportunity to apply for the qualification of car production... Not to mention, Bingzhuang Group alone produces 4 cars License plate, besides, our Huateng Industrial Group is not an unknown person. The "Business Class on Land" produced by the company sells well all over the country. As long as we can get strong support from the province, it is reasonable to ask for a car production license, right? "

As soon as Zhang Qihang's voice fell, many people in the conference room, especially those old people who had followed Zhang Qihang from the beginning, had a similar idea: Yes, the production qualification of cars with the prefix "7" is indeed It is difficult to apply, but our Huateng Industrial Group is now considered a well-known automobile manufacturing enterprise in the country. It's not like there's no chance, right?Such a simple truth, why didn't I think of it before? !
"If we can apply for the production qualification of cars with the prefix '7', then it will not be a problem for us to sell 10 cars a year, but it will be tens of billions in sales a year," Jiang He immediately said: "If we Counting the existing business of our group... Good guy! Then our group will immediately become a super large group with a total annual sales of more than 200 billion yuan. How much profit and tax can this contribute to the city and the province? Can it benefit the whole city and even How much will the economic development of the province play? As long as the leaders are not stupid, they will definitely agree."

Zhang Qihang made a decisive decision: "In this case, I will go to the city to ask for instructions and see what the leaders mean."

There is no need to discuss it. If Huateng Industrial Group can produce cars, what else is there to do, and what "high-low matching" is to be done, and it will be enough to produce cars.

..............................

When receiving Zhang Qihang's call, Zhou Anming was still curious, what would Zhang Qihang need to report to him face to face?But when he finished listening to Zhang Qihang's idea, he couldn't calm down anymore. After walking around the office twice, Zhou Anming took a deep breath and asked, "Xiao Zhang, what chance do you think of being able to apply for a car production qualification?" ?”

Zhang Qihang smiled bitterly and said, "I don't need to know."

"You do not know?"

"Yes, leader, I dare not hide such a big matter from you, I really don't know," Zhang Qihang said with a wry smile: "But I just realized that we have no chance at all. A few years ago, in order to save the domestic The military industry company issued four car production licenses to Bingzhuang Group at the first time, but Bingzhuang Group took these four licenses and turned around to produce Alto.

In addition, although the above is now calling for the establishment of "three big and three small" car production bases, there are many domestic companies with car production qualifications, and some units have not even been able to produce cars for several years. From this perspective, I think we It is definitely not easy to apply for a car production license with the prefix '7', but it cannot be said that there is no chance.

In addition, there are quite a few old leaders who have left Lu Province. Faced with such an opportunity that can make the province's automobile industry grow stronger and stimulate the province's economic development, many of these old leaders will step down one after another. How long do we have to wait for a favor? "
