Chapter 879 The cheapest CVT gearbox in history

Huang Hai does have a reason to be angry. The current Langya Bus Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is not so much a bus manufacturing company as a place where a group of bastards who are living a life of death. Have you ever seen a bus manufacturing company with a big hole in the roof of a factory? Have you ever seen a bus manufacturing company with only three employees with a college degree or above? Have you ever seen a bus manufacturing company that doesn’t even have a real engineer? Have you ever seen a bus manufacturing company with an average age of over 45 years old in the factory?

No, right? That's right, this is the current situation of Langya Bus Manufacturing Co., Ltd.!

It can be said that this is a bus manufacturing factory with bus production qualifications and no bus manufacturing capabilities at all. In Huanghai's view, the most valuable asset of Langya Bus Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is the passenger car production qualification certificate and the land in the factory area. Except for these two things, everything else should be burned out. It is just a bus manufacturing factory with strong technical strength that does not have a private tractor tow bucket factory. Do you ask me to take out a bus with a quality of the bus with an average level in the national bus manufacturing company in one year?

What a joke?!

But Lin Zheng obviously didn't see this way. He frowned and Lin Zheng said, "I know this is difficult, but this is also the reason why we hired Huang, you... "

"Then I can only tell you that I can't do this job," Huang Hai simply rejected Lin Zheng's words before Lin Zheng finished speaking: "Mr. Lin, let me tell you this. With the current appearance of Langya Bus Manufacturing Co., Ltd., if you want to produce quality buses and buses, it will take at least two years to integrate human resources and resources. Otherwise, don't even think about it!

The pure electric drive system developed by the Group Motor Research Institute is indeed very powerful, but the power system is only one of the most important among the countless subsystems of passenger buses. Modifying a bus under laboratory conditions does not mean that the group has this production capacity. Your mentality is a little impatient. The most urgent task of the bus manufacturer now is not other than updating production equipment and poaching people from those excellent domestic bus manufacturers. Whether it is management talents, productive talents, or technical workers, we all need it."

Are you a little impatient? Lin Zheng doesn't think so.

He admitted that what Huang Hai said makes sense. Updating equipment and attracting talents is indeed one of the most important tasks of Langya Bus Manufacturing Co., Ltd., but it is just one of them. That's right. The current bus manufacturing plants lack people, equipment, concepts, but products... almost everything is lacking, but there is only one thing, that is, there is no shortage of money.

For a company, especially in its infancy, it is really important to not lack money. Not lacking money means you can buy equipment, but other talented companies poach people or even go to other excellent companies to steal knowledge. After taking over the city bus manufacturing factory a year ago, the most important reason why Lin Zheng did not update the factory equipment was that he needed to clarify his clues and wait for other things. However, time would not wait for himself. As for the high price of poaching people, this is indeed a fact, but who made him have no one?

"There is no way to complete this task within one year?" Lin Zheng confirmed to Huang Hai again.

"It's impossible!" Huang Hai's attitude was very firm.

Lin Zheng nodded: "Ok. It seems that Langya Bus Manufacturing Co., Ltd. needs a CEO with super strong execution."

After all, Huang Hai is the chief engineer, and he looks at problems more from a technical perspective. For a company, technology is very important, but excellent management talents are more important. Huang Hai is responsible for technology as the chief engineer, but it is obvious that it is difficult for him to manage and operate.

Huang Hai's face suddenly changed. During the time he came to Langya Bus Manufacturing Co., Ltd., the entire Lianchuang Technology Group attached great importance to him, so that Huang Hai had already regarded himself as the company's general manager. However, as soon as Lin Zheng said this, he realized that he was just the company's chief engineer and wanted to say something, but hesitated for a moment, but hesitated and said nothing after all. The chief engineer was not the general manager after all. When Lianchuang Technology invited him, he said that he was asking himself to be the chief engineer. It was unreasonable for his anger to come.

No matter what Huang Hai thought, the signs of Huang Hai being arrogant must be continued, and he must realize his position. The timing is very coincidental. Taking advantage of the opportunity to attend the smartcity new car launch conference in the United States to meet several talents in the bus industry... It must be admitted that excellent bus industry management talents are still abroad, and it is not possible to admit this.

"Boss, you are finally here!" Seeing Lin Zheng, Bijon Waldgard hugged Lin Zheng with excitement, and for this person who brought him out of hell and gave him a new life, Bijon Waldgard was full of gratitude from beginning to end. At this moment, when he saw Lin Zheng, Bijon Waldgard was so excited that he almost flew up.

"Yes, I'm here," Lin Zheng was also very excited while feeling the excitement and excitement of Jon Waldgard. He patted his back hard and smiled: "But don't be too happy, tell you, I'm here to supervise this time. If something goes wrong this time, be careful I'll only ask!"

"Hahaha..." Hearing Lin Zheng's words, he smiled harder than Jon Waldgard, and patted his strong breasts as strong as a bear and was very proud: "If it was really apart from something wrong, I would not be able to forgive myself."

Lin Zheng waved his hand and said anxiously: "Take me to see!"

Although this smartcity project was brought up by himself, after handing over this project to Bijon Waldgard, Lin Zheng had not seen this car in almost four months. He was eager to know the difference between the final model and the driving texture of the previous test-loading car.

Bijon Waldgard laughed when he heard this, pointed to the parking space not far from him and said proudly to Lin Zheng: "Boss, I know you are in a hurry. I have brought the car. We can drive this car all the way back. Also, let me tell you good news. Our CVT gearbox has been developed successfully, and this car is equipped with it."

"Really?" Lin Zheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this: Isn't it still a few months before he can set his shape?

He reacted and quickly walked towards the white and green smartcity. He wanted to experience the car equipped with a cvt gearbox as soon as possible - next to the extremely cute smartcity. There were already many people around at this moment. He seemed to be very interested in this car. Many tourists who had just left the airport even took cameras in their hands and kept taking pictures of this unusually unique car.

"Well, the bench test has been completed, but it has not been tested yet. Strictly speaking, this cannot be regarded as a final gearbox. However, according to previous experiments, the quality of this gearbox is stable enough and its performance is reliable enough. After all, it has been strengthened and improved according to your requirements of "adding reverse gear on the basis of the continuously variable transmission of the motorcycle"," Bijon Waldgard, who followed Lin Zheng in a simultaneous manner, said to Lin Zheng as he walked: "The only problem is that although we used a customized reinforced toothed belt, which is stronger than the belt used on Harley motorcycles, it is still a belt after all, and its performance cannot be compared with the CVT gearbox that uses steel belts. The torque and power it can withstand is still relatively limited..."

Lin Zheng has long been mentally prepared for the limited power and torque. However, as a cheap automatic transmission for A00-level mini-cars, Lin Zheng did not expect the transmission to bear the upper limit in terms of power and torque. It is not until Jon Waldgard finished speaking, and Lin Zheng asked: "What is the maximum power and maximum torque that can bear?"

"The maximum torque that can be withstand is 90 Nm and has a maximum power of 70 kilowatts. It can only be used for small-displacement engines below 1.5l. The maximum driving quality of the car is also best not to increase the power and torque, so you can only use steel belts."

Speaking of this, he was a little regretful than Jon Waldgard, and the indicators were still too low. In fact, he hoped to use steel belts that can perform better. However, Waldgard also understood that if steel belts were used, the cost of this transmission would not be able to be obtained at the current cost. As a cheap car that costs less than 10,000 US dollars, it must be discounted in terms of cost.

"It doesn't matter, this CVT gearbox was developed for small-displacement models at the beginning of its development," said a little regretful than Jon Waldgard, but Lin Zheng didn't care. He was actually more concerned about another question: "By the way, after using a customized belt, how long is the belt replacement cycle?"

Speaking of which, this CVT gearbox is indeed cheap enough. At the beginning of the project, it was aimed at low cost. It was simply a reverse gear on the continuously variable transmission on the scooter motorcycle. There was no electronic control system at all, and it was just a purely mechanical CVT gearbox. In this way, it was difficult to not be cheap. Not only was the 5-speed manual transmission on the car cheaper, but it was even cheaper than the 4-speed manual transmission on the Alto.

It's just an automatic CVT gearbox, which is cheaper than an old 4mt. Is it reasonable?

"Four years or 80,000 kilometers, but according to our experiments, it doesn't matter if you change it to 160,000 kilometers. However, 80,000 kilometers is a relatively safe number. Oh, by the way, if you use a better belt, you can reach 100,000 kilometers in 5 years, but the price of such high-performance belts will be more expensive."
