Chapter 186 Don't walk on the road to repair the car
Until he came out of the chief's office, Li Jianguo's head was dizzy. No matter how bold he was, he did not expect that the chief looked for him this time for the cooperation between Chen Geng and Xiangjiang Machinery Factory.
Frankly speaking, Li Jianguo is still optimistic about the plan of Xiangjiang Machinery Factory. The reason is naturally based on the domestic sales of the Fiat 126p. Such a simple and simple car is so popular among the people. This is somewhat beyond Li Jianguo's expectations. But if you think about it carefully, you will take it for granted. The people's requirements for travel convenience have always existed. If the conditions are met, who would not want to improve their own conditions? It's just that Shanghai, 212 Jeep and those imported original cars cannot afford it. The small and cheap car like Fiat 126p just meets the requirements of the people for cars. But it is a small car after all, which can shelter from wind and rain, right?
I just don’t know what kind of green smoke came from this kid Chen Geng’s ancestral grave. What he was going to do was actually valued by the leader. This is really... all good things happened to this kid.
Also dizzy was Mr. Song Jingying. He said in disbelief: "Really, fake? Xiaozhuang, you can't joke about this."
"Old Song, I have also been doing revolutionary work all my life. Do you think I would joke with you about such things?" Zhuang Qun's voice was a little annoyed: "You really misread that kid Chen Geng. What did he treat the car as?"
"What the hell is going on?" Song Jingying frowned and asked.
"That's the case..." Zhuang Qun talked endlessly.
What's going on? The more Mr. Song Jingying heard, the more he frowned: He was very optimistic about Chen Geng, and his performance did not disappoint himself. He was polite and had a deep understanding of cars and engines. But when he reached Zhuang Qun's mouth, Chen Geng became a guy who was useless and arrogant and arrogant?
For Mr. Song Jingying, who has become Chen Geng's closed disciple, he is somewhat unable to accept Zhuang Qun's evaluation of Chen Geng: You say Chen Geng is not good. Isn't it equivalent to saying that I have a bad view of people?
After talking for 2 minutes, Zhuang Qun angrily summarized it in one sentence: "Professor Song, I heard that you have not officially accepted this kid as your disciple yet? I would like to advise you that this kid is too impetuous. You'd better consider it carefully."
Mr. Song Jingying, who was unhappy, hummed and responded a few times. After hanging up the phone, he thought about it carefully, and he figured out what was going on: For Zhuang Qun, he retired. He had changed from the formerly high-ranking deputy chief designer of FAW to an ordinary retired old man. The psychological gap is huge. Song Jingying has seen too many officials undergo huge changes after retirement. Many people who were originally quite approachable have changed their personality after retirement. Not only is they extremely violent, but they also cannot tolerate the slightest opposition from others. Now think about it, maybe Zhuang Qun is the same?
………………………………………
Chen Geng has always respected Mr. Song Jingying and returned to the hotel. When he knew that Mr. Song Jingying had actually called, he immediately understood that 99% of the old man called for Zhuang Qun. He was afraid that the old man would worry about him, so Chen Geng immediately asked the driver to send him to Huaqing again.
Seeing Chen Geng, although Mr. Song Jingying was already roughly clear in his heart, he still asked anxiously: "What's going on? What did you say make Zhuang Qun furious?"
"You said this?" Chen Geng not only did not have any urgency, but instead asked curiously: "Teacher Zhuang won't call to complain to you, right?"
Looking at Chen Geng's relaxed look, Mr. Song Jingying felt inexplicably at peace and said with a smile: "Isn't you complaining? You said you are disrespectful and arrogant, and you don't have two taels of lard in your dog's belly..."
"How come there is lard in the dog's belly?" Chen Geng suddenly asked.
"..." Mr. Song Jingying was stunned for a moment, and the next moment, he pointed at Chen Geng and hilariously: "You guy. You can't be so hurt in the future. How can you say that seniors in the industry like this?"
"Okay, I remember." Chen Geng said obediently.
After a moment of salute, before Mr. Song Jingying asked, Chen Geng took the initiative to explain: "I went to find Teacher Zhuang Qun before, hoping that Teacher Zhuang Qun can provide some valuable opinions and suggestions for our plan for this household mini car. After all, he made a car with a nose, and any suggestion may help us avoid many detours..."
"What then?" Mr. Song Jingying nodded and asked.
He thought Chen Geng's idea was right. No matter what, Zhuang Qun was the first generation of automobiles in the Republic. In many places, Zhuang Qun has a deeper understanding of cars than himself. Not to mention that Chen Geng can convince Zhuang Qundao to work in this household mini car project of Runhua Industrial and Xiangjiang Machinery Factory, even if Zhuang Qun can give them some reference opinions and precautions, it can help them avoid detours in the process.
"Then it's not good," Chen Geng smiled bitterly and said, "Comrade Zhuang Qun thinks that our plan is simply playing the piano randomly. The xj750 engine itself is not an excellent engine with reliable performance and quality, and its stability is not good enough. Moreover, this engine was developed with German technology in the late 1930s. It has been almost half a century since now. The thing that should be thrown into the garbage dump of history is actually used as the engine of a car. It's simply..."
After gesturing, Chen Geng said: "Do you want the car owner to either repair the car or on the way to repair the car every day?"
The lethality of this joke is really too great, and to be honest, there are too many problems with the entire Yangtze River 750 vehicle and the xj750 engine, so many that you don’t know what will happen next moment. It’s really appropriate to joke that “either you are repairing a car or on the road to repair a car”. Mr. Song Jingying laughed: “Xiaozhuang’s mouth is not so poor. Are you saying this?”
"Hehe..." Chen Geng laughed twice, although he agreed: "The quality stability and reliability of the xj750 engine are indeed a bit poor, but Comrade Zhuang Qun believes that the foundation and current situation of our country's industry do not allow our country to vigorously develop the automobile industry. The automobile industry should be something that a country should do after the industry and technology of a country has reached a certain level and stage. It is the industry of a country and the master of science and technology. Now we use such a mess to make a car..."
"It's just a random piano player!"
The old man has always been well educated, but this time, he was really angry: "We have to wait until the industry and technology develop to a certain extent before we can develop our own automobile industry? What is this bullshit argument? I don't believe that when Europeans and Americans develop their own automobile industry at the beginning of this century, their industrial conditions would be better than our current foundation? If we really follow his argument, we might as well not develop anything."
Chen Geng lowered his head and didn't say anything. Mr. Song Jingying could say this, but he could not say anything, but he could not say it from his mouth.
Mr. Song Jingying cursed a few words in anger and said, "Say! You continue to say it!"
"Okay, to be honest, Mr. Zhuang Qun's words cannot be miscalculated, but I think he upgraded the car to a totem, a belief, or even myth, exaggerated the functions of the car to an excessive extent. This is not appropriate. In my opinion, what is a car? In fact, if it is simplified, in the final analysis, a car is a means of transportation that transports people or goods from point a to point b.
For household mini-sedges of Fiat 126p, neither car manufacturers nor users themselves will require a million-level luxury car. Everyone’s requirements are actually very low. As long as the car can shelter from wind and rain, don’t break often, and be a little more comfortable, it’s almost done..."
Mr. Song Jingying nodded frequently when he heard it. Although he had not heard the conversation between Chen Geng and Zhuang Qun, he thought Chen Geng's words were indeed very reasonable. However, as an expert with rich experience in automobile research and education for many years, Mr. Song Jingying knew that Chen Geng was actually right. In the final analysis, a car is a means of transportation that transports people or goods from point a to point b. What do you do if you don't do other useless things?
He sighed in his heart: Zhuang Qun... This is going wrong.
Chen Geng didn't know that Mr. Song Jingying's evaluation of Zhuang Qun was like this. He continued: "It seems that the biggest obstacle and stumbling block of the 'home mini car plan' of Runhua Industrial and Xiangjiang Machinery Factory is the poor reliability and stability of the xj750 engine, but we have begun to do this. In order to help car owners not to "repair cars or on the way to repair cars," our Runhua Industrial is now working with Chengfa and several engine engineers from Germany to modify the xj750 engine.
Without major changes to the overall engine, the reliability, stability and overall power of the xj750 engine have been greatly improved. Now the first phase of work has been basically completed, and the maximum power has been increased to 32 horsepower. As long as the test is completed and there are no major problems, it can be formally finalized. Unfortunately..."
Smacked his lips: Chen Geng said regretfully: "It's a pity that Teacher Zhuang Qun kept talking..."
Mr. Song Jingying was excited. He quickly asked: "Do you really increase the maximum power of xj750 to 32 horsepower while ensuring reliability and stability?"
