Chapter 1002 The Role of Face-Saving Projects

At the end of every year, corporate managers are very busy, busy dealing with various financial and tax issues. More importantly, they have to summarize and report results at the end of the year.

If your work performance this year is very good, you will naturally be excited and wait for praise from your superiors to accumulate capital for your future promotion.

But if your work performance this year is terrible, then you have to think of something. If you don’t have results, then create results. People who can’t create results have no future.

At the end of October, Lu Zhizhang also found Li Ye and expressed his embarrassment that he wanted to do some face-saving projects.

"Li Ye, do you think we can seize the progress of the van and build a few prototypes before New Year's Day?"

"Prototype car?"

Li Ye said helplessly: "Lao Lu, we can report a lot of achievements this year, right? Why do we still need to falsify? What if we are exposed and people say we have falsified, what will the factory workers think? "

The results of the first branch factory this year are very good. Except for the few months when the big factory director had an accident, the company made a substantial profit. The two introduction projects are also progressing smoothly. Mini trucks can be produced in small quantities before the end of the year, which is enough. A very eye-catching year-end summary.

But now it seems that Lu Zhizhang is still a little dissatisfied. He wants to add the achievements of Mitsubishi vans, eat a big fat man in one bite, and let the superiors praise the branch factory.

But the problem is that according to the original plan, the van using Mitsubishi's chassis technology will not be fully finalized until at least next spring. Now that it is released a few months in advance, there will definitely be a lot of defects.

If it were another unit, it might not think anything of it. Anyway, it was just to build a few vehicles to show off, and to earn rewards.

But Li Ye always felt that it was inappropriate because he wanted to establish a pragmatic work atmosphere in the first branch factory. It was better not to do this kind of face-saving project.

However, Lu Zhizhang slapped his tongue and said: "I also know that I am a little impatient, but I asked Wu Yan and the others today. Their second improvement experiment this month failed again.

Everyone feels that it is too difficult to install a diesel engine into a van, and we can’t count on it for a while. If we switch to the gasoline engine provided by Mitsubishi, it will be almost finalized before New Year’s Day. If you think the Japanese are too dark, let’s use it first. Just one of Jingnai’s 492 series will do.”

"."

Li Ye sighed softly and fell silent.

When we first imported van technology from Mitsubishi, the other party readily agreed and handed over a series of molds and materials to the first branch. They also sent an installation team to assist in the construction and debugging of the production line. It seemed really friendly. Friendly.

But Japanese people will not suffer losses. After the first branch factory was about to solve the production problems of chassis and body, the other party smiled and said that they could provide engines, but they would only provide imported complete machines.

Ma Zhaoxian immediately entrusted a foreign trade agency to coordinate the imported engine production technology. As expected, it failed. Mitsubishi had long made up its mind to earn back the money "lost" from the low-priced production line from the engine.

Moreover, if the first branch factory has no money, they are willing to provide low-interest loans. This routine is somewhat familiar to Li Ye. This is how companies that master core technologies will play in later generations.

If the production is carried out according to Mitsubishi's proposal, most of the money earned by the first branch factory's hard work will be divided by Mitsubishi in the end, and the output will still be controlled by others.

After Ma Zhaoxian and Li Ye met, they started tug-of-war negotiations with Mitsubishi while trying the "second plan" that Li Ye had prepared for a long time.

During the Spring Festival, why did Li Ye enthusiastically agree to the proposal of the big factory director and take over all the copying work of Isuzu technology?

He took a fancy to Isuzu's 4JB1 engine.

Although this is a diesel engine, the torque, speed, and power can meet the requirements of a business van. Many nine-seater official vehicles in later generations have adopted similar diesel engines, and the effect is quite good.

However, the imitation work of the first branch factory did not go smoothly. So far, it can only be applied to trucks, but it has not yet reached the standard of commercial vehicles that Li Ye expected.

A few months ago, Wu Yan told Li Ye that, with the exception of very few performance data, the imitation diesel engines reached 80% of the original imported ones.

Vibration and noise are the "very few" performance parts.

To put it harshly, if Wu Yan and the others can identify the imitations based on their perception alone, without looking at their appearance or data, they are not "close relative engines" at all.

Just like the Chaoyang four-cylinder engine, it is partially copied from the Isuzu 4JB1. Listen to the sound, is it the same thing?

These two points are nothing in a truck. Truck drivers are all super ninjas and have extremely strong tolerance. But when it comes to a business van, it is a huge shortcoming.

Which boss or leader is willing to endure having to "yell" to talk to people in the cab while driving at high speed? This is no exaggeration, some models decades later still have this problem!

Moreover, he drove out in a "turbulent" car, making it sound like he was riding a tractor to attend a meeting. Isn't that embarrassing?

Therefore, Li Ye plans to try his best to solve the vibration and noise problem of the diesel engine. Only after meeting the basic loading standards can he negotiate with Mitsubishi.

But now the technical team of the first branch feels that the difficulty is too great, which really makes Li Ye feel frustrated.

There are too many companies that are lagging behind, and the brand of the First Branch Factory is still too small. Even if Professor Zhao helps to poach employees, top technical experts can still make quick money and sell themselves to the First Branch Factory for continuous research for a long time. It's unrealistic. The level of the first branch factory is too low.

These days, the top talents in the mainland are either attracted by the glory and wealth overseas, or they contribute to the country and serve the country in some obscure position.

Seeing that Li Ye was silent for a long time, Lu Zhizhang continued to explain: "That's what I actually think. Let's make a few prototype cars first and show them to the department leaders before we raise our difficulties.

It would be much easier if the ministry is willing to help us coordinate technical efforts to tackle key problems. I heard that the imitation of Isuzu diesel engines in Gan Province has made great progress. We can ask for help."

Li Ye was startled and realized that he had misunderstood Lu Zhizhang.

He thought that Lu Zhizhang was like the former big factory director, obsessed with boasting about his achievements. He never thought that when he was thinking about practicing hard to develop his own skills, Lu Zhizhang had already moved to a "brother's unit" for free. It was a vain idea.

"Then it's up to you! Put the 492 and other engines into the car for trial production. You have to decide how to communicate with the superiors."

Li Ye finally reluctantly accepted Lu Zhizhang's proposal.

The least ideal solution now is to use imported Mitsubishi machines first, and then wait for an opportunity to fully replace them with domestic ones.

And this opportunity won't be long,

There is a problem among flower growers. The more you block it, the more energetic I become.

Just like when Mr. Jianguo came to power for the first time in later generations, many men from the Mediterranean Institute of Technology in the Mainland suddenly had their salaries doubled, and many who had switched careers to finance came back to continue working in technology.

"Didi didi~didi didi~~"

Not long after Lu Zhizhang left, Li Ye's eldest brother rang. After picking up the phone, it turned out to be Master Ni calling.

Master Ni still had no polite style and asked directly: "Li Ye, are you looking for mechanics engineers over there?"

Li Ye chuckled and asked, "Yes! How did you know?"

Master Ni said: "I heard from General Manager Pan that I happen to have a suitable candidate here. Can you accept it?"

Li Ye suddenly sat up straight.

Because Dashen Ni asked if he could "accept" him, he obviously planned to officially join the job and transfer his household registration.

And with Ni Dashen's character, Li Ye didn't think that the other party would introduce him to an unreliable engineer.

"Lao Ni, please tell me about his situation. It's not that I don't believe you! But since he is willing to come, then I have to prepare corresponding treatment for him, right? In case he is a researcher, I will assign him an assistant researcher The treatment, isn’t that looking down on people?”

"He is an associate researcher," Ni Dashen explained: "He graduated from Nanjing University in the 1960s, and he has been working since he entered the institute. Don't worry, he is definitely better than most researchers in terms of professionalism."

Dashen Ni spoke very modestly, but Li Ye could tell that he had great confidence in this person.

So Li Ye didn't show any airs and asked directly: "Which research institute is he currently in? Does he need our help in mobilizing working relationships? When can we arrange to meet?"

Master Ni said: "He is here with me now! Just transfer the work relationship directly to your unit. If your unit is sure, you can send him there today."

"."

Li Ye was stunned. Is it possible to transfer work at such a speed these days? Why does it feel like it’s a bit of a sale of good stuff at a cheap price?

Li Ye hissed and asked slowly: "Lao Ni, can you tell me why he is at your place?"

Dashen Ni said strangely: "He was transferred to us from the research institute! The mobile company has gathered technical personnel from several departments across the country. You should know this!"

"I definitely know this! But... you are engaged in communications, how can you have a researcher in academic science?"

During the Chinese New Year, Li Ye asked Teacher Ke for his endorsement and gathered industry elites to form a mobile company. Naturally, he knew that Dashen Ni had recruited many engineers from outside the country, but Dashen Ni was engaged in electronics, so what did he learn?

Dashen Ni chuckled and explained: "Li Ye, every line is like a mountain. Mechanics is not just about building houses and making machinery. Aircraft, rockets, satellites, engines, dryers and mechanical hard drives are all within the research scope of the Department of Mechanics. We are I want to study mechanical hard drives.”

"Oh oh oh, I'm sorry, Lao Ni. This is because I'm not professional anymore. Don't take it to heart. Then, just send people here now! I have three bedrooms and one living room ready-made here. Now I will Let people clean it up, and let them feel the warmth of home tonight."

Li Ye quickly apologized for his ignorance.

Li Ye knew that there were mechanical hard drives in computers, but he never thought that mechanics would be required for that thing.

He had only heard that in the early stages of drones, civilian enthusiasts took apart the hard drive and used the brushless motor inside. He didn't expect that there were so many reasons.

Hearing that Li Yeye had sent people to clean up the three rooms and one living room, Dashen Ni suddenly fell silent for a few seconds, and then whispered: "Li Ye, there is something I have to tell you in advance. After the people are delivered, can you please leave them?" Ask him questions about his personal life?”

"What? A question about your personal life? What is that question?"

Li Ye was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

What does Master Ni mean by this?

He has experienced the chaos of the future. Thinking about Musk's eldest son, Li Ye dare not be careless about this issue.

"Old Ni, you are not sending me a person with special hobbies, right?"
