851 Don't talk to me about performance, occupy the market first, and then consider this after surviv(2/3)
I wanted him to go to Siberia before so that he would not mess around here.
If he is not careful, he will really develop the automobile factory in the direction of tank development and production.
After the reform and opening up, a large number of military factories were on the verge of bankruptcy and continued to turn military to civilians.
If you wait for another twenty years, you may still have a chance.
But tanks are really not something that can be made by automobile factories.
Automobile factories can only make iron coffins.
"Old branch secretary, there is still a big difference between cars and tanks, and the technology gap is too big..."
Cheng Bangguo explained to Liu Fuwang from a technical perspective.
"Even if we can build it, we don't have tank guns or other weapons and equipment..."
"I'm just saying that your reaction is a bit too big."
Liu Fuwang directly knocked a rake.
Liu Chunlai was too lazy to pay attention to him.
Once the old man had such an idea, he had to slap him to death without mercy.
Huluba.
The continuous light steel factory building has been built.
Many roads in the middle are still hardening.
This time the construction scale is large, and various projects are being promoted at the same time.
Some factories have been repaired now and are being installed on driving.
Some are wiring.
The substation is also under construction.
From time to time, cars transport various equipment into it.
There are very few cranes, cranes, etc., and they are almost all relying on manpower.
The Jialing Automobile Factory, which has not been completed, is completely a construction site.
As soon as I came in, I felt messy.
"At present, we are the assembly workshop, and the entire assembly line is mechanically automated, and various spare parts are introduced from the front..."
“Where is the production process?”
After listening, Liu Chunlai asked.
"Directly follow the Soviet production method? Are there any improvements in the process?"
"Not yet. The technicians from the Soviet Union believe that their production process is very excellent and there is nothing to optimize."
Cheng Bangguo explained.
"This is not possible! The Soviet economy is almost collapsed, and I'm still so confident!"
Secretary Liu was unhappy.
The cost must be reduced.
Liu Chun said that it was because the Soviets made things and did not consider the cost.
The things produced are indeed sturdy and durable, but they cannot get the price and the market is not very good.
"It's okay, let's learn about the situation. We produce a reduced-equipment van..."
The reduced-equipped van is much less difficult than the production of Watz.
Without four-wheel drive, this reduces a lot.
The requirements for chassis, suspension, etc. are not that high.
"Liu, why are you here?"
Chekov was arguing with Long Pingyuan in the technical room.
Seeing Liu Chunlai come in, the two stopped arguing.
"What are you arguing about?"
Liu Chunlai asked with a smile.
It seems that after the Soviets came, they were constantly quarreling with them.
So Liu Chunlai doesn't like to come here very much.
He doesn't understand technology.
"Chekov said that after we reduced the engine power, the total mass of the car was reduced by more than half, and the frame strength was too low..."
Long Pingyuan explained.
This is Liu Chunlai's instructions.
Can run!
Can get goods!
Easy to repair and maintain.
More importantly, the cost must be cheap.
The production cost of a van must not exceed 12,000 yuan.
The cost is here.
Can it be made thick?
"Liu, such a car has poor safety performance. From four-wheel drive to two-wheel drive, the performance has been severely reduced..."
Chekov said seriously to Liu Chun.
In his opinion, Liu Chunlai was irresponsible.
"Is there any design problem? Can it meet national standards?"
Liu Chun came to ask Chekov.
Chekov was speechless.
“Absolutely higher than the national standards.”
Long Pingyuan hurriedly made a statement.
"Chekov, I have explained before, what we need is a van that meets market demand, rather than prioritizing performance..."
Liu Chunlai emphasized to Chekov.
Many Soviet engineers engaged in design regardless of cost.
As a result, the country's economy collapsed.
For example, the MiG-25, the fastest-flying and highest-altitude fighter in the world, is completely covered with two engines in stainless steel.
Even so, the Soviets considered the cost.
Why not use titanium alloy directly like the US SR-71 Blackbird?
It’s because the processing is too difficult and the cost is too high.
When I got here, I was so flew so bad that I didn’t have the performance.
"But if these cars collided with trucks..."
"Why do you have to collide with a truck? This situation is not common..."
Liu Chunlai said speechlessly.
What are you considering?
"Okay, there is no need to argue about this matter. The cost is too high, which is not a good thing for the market. The route we are going to take is to surround the city in the countryside and create a car that can attract people, transport goods, and have simple maintenance and reliable performance... It is not a production of armored vehicles that can be used to collide with large trucks..."
Liu Chunlai saw Chekov and said impatiently.
The crappy translator stammered and translated these words.
“…”
Chekov was in a very unbeautiful mood.
But I can't say anything.
Otherwise, Liu Chunlai would ask him to go back wherever he came from.
"Chekov, I know what you think. We have said before that what is needed is to quickly occupy the market."
Liu Chun looked at Chekov's expression and sighed helplessly.
"Our domestic market is different from other places. The economy is developing rapidly. Whether it is the flow of people or goods, it requires a large amount of transportation capacity... As an enterprise, in market competition, the first thing we need is to choose to survive! If the factory cannot survive, how can we talk about development?"
To be continued...
