Siheyuan Great Craftsmen

Chapter 431: Export, Car Factory

After watching Xie Yuanchang drive away, Zhou Tian withdrew his gaze.

"Dean, what should we do next?"

Zhang Mingzhi on the side immediately came to Zhou Tian and asked.

"What else can we do? Just assemble a few more!"

Zhou Tian said this and then led his men to continue manufacturing the vehicle.

After assembling the car, he had planned to experiment with it himself before handing it over to his superiors for inspection. However, he did not expect Minister Xie to be so impatient that he drove the car away right after it was built. This made his original plan go down the drain, and now he could only build a few more cars.

The weather in the city in February is still cold.

The streets of the old city were crowded with people. From time to time, a white bus passed slowly on the road. Under the big bag on the back, the exhaust port emitted a rumbling black exhaust gas. When it arrived at the bus stop, a ticket seller kept shouting loudly to the people getting on the bus.

Every bicycle passing by on the street would attract everyone's attention, and occasionally a jeep passing by on the road would arouse everyone's envy.

Suddenly, a black car passed in front of the bus and a voice suddenly sounded on the bus.

"Everyone, look! What a beautiful car."

Hearing the sound, everyone looked out through the window of the bus and saw a black car driving on the road. With a black exterior and smooth and graceful lines, the entire car looked extremely majestic and noble, shining brightly in the sun, especially the front logo, which actually used a silver sickle icon, and the two red "August 1st" numbers in the middle were even more dazzling, giving people an invisible feeling of solemnity and plainness.

"It's really beautiful, but I don't know which country this car is from. I've never seen such a beautiful car before!"

"Yeah, it's so beautiful, even better than Big Brother's Gizmo!"

As they spoke, everyone leaned on the glass and looked at the car in the distance, with a look of longing and envy in their eyes.

At this moment, in the car, Xie Yuanchang naturally didn't know the sensation caused by the car manufactured by the research institute along the way. However, the more he felt the comfort and warmth in the car, the more satisfied he felt. Compared with the cars equipped by the state, this car was not on the same level in terms of shock absorption or quietness. It was even not inferior to the luxury car Mercedes-Benz of the Bald Eagle country, and even better.

"Two experts, do you think this kind of car can be sold in our country?"

However, after calming down, Xie Yuanchang quickly thought of the core of the problem. Although he was in a hurry and forgot to ask Zhou Tian about the cost of the car, just from the comfortable feeling, he could vaguely guess that the cost of this car was not low.

If it were an ordinary car, it would be easy to say, but he didn't think a luxurious and comfortable car like this could be sold domestically. Of course, government procurement doesn't count. The problem is that the country doesn't have money now, so once the car is produced, selling it becomes a problem.

After all, such a car is not affordable for an individual, not even an ordinary factory manager.

"This! Minister, I'm afraid I can't!"

When the two experts heard what Minister Xie said, they shook their heads. They were very clear about the situation in the domestic market. Unless those rich people were willing to spend money to buy it, the problem was that there were only a few rich people in the country after all. Even if each person bought one, not many such cars would sell.

I'm afraid that this sales amount alone is not enough to cover the cost of manufacturing the car, let alone making money, unless... As they spoke, their eyes lit up.

"Unless it's an exit!"

Coincidentally, three people spoke at the same time, and then there was a flash of surprise in their eyes.

Thinking of the exit, Xie Yuanchang could no longer hold back and began to urge Secretary Yuan to speed up. In less than ten minutes, the car arrived at the Machinery Department. Xie Yuanchang did not stay for a few minutes. He entered the office, made a phone call, and took Secretary Yuan to the Forbidden City.

Three days later, several documents regarding the establishment of an automobile manufacturing plant were suddenly sent to the Research Institute, the Ministry of Machinery, and the Fengtai District Government.

As soon as the Ministry of Machinery received the document, it arranged for an engineering team to enter Wanping and began to build a car factory in Wanping. The area of ​​the car factory is not inferior to that of the four branch factories combined, and is even twice as large. Construction started on more than a thousand acres of wasteland at the same time.

In order to complete the construction of the automobile factory as soon as possible, the Ministry of Machinery mobilized a total of 30,000 engineering teams and more than 100 pieces of construction machinery. It can be said that the Ministry of Machinery has made every effort to build the automobile factory.

Such a big move in the Machinery Department naturally attracted the attention of many factories. Many factory managers went to the Machinery Department to inquire, but in the end they returned empty-handed.

As for the Fengtai District Government, it also organized people to continue to quickly build roads and speed up the construction of surrounding supporting facilities.

Of course, Zhou Tian also learned about all this from Zhang Mingzhi, but he was still surprised that the country attached so much importance to the automobile project. Although he had built a car that was beyond the current era, his own family knew only their own business.

He never thought that such a car could be sold domestically. The reason why he manufactured it was, firstly, for export, and secondly, to see if he could change the luxury car landscape of his previous life.

But I didn’t expect that the country would take such a big action just three days after the car was taken away by Minister Xie. This shows that the country’s attention to the automobile industry is not just talk.

For a moment, he couldn't help but feel that the burden on his shoulders had become heavier.

"Lao Zhang, the next thing about the research institute is left to you. Since the higher-ups have personally stepped in, I must ensure that we build a few more car production lines as soon as possible, so the research institute can only trouble you!"

Zhang Mingzhi naturally knew the seriousness of the automobile production line. Hearing this, he nodded and said, "President, don't worry. I will definitely live up to your high expectations!"

"Well, I will be living in the workshop starting tomorrow. As for my family, just send Xiao Liu to inform them!"

After saying that, Zhou Tian entered the workshop again and started to manufacture a production line of auto parts with a group of technicians.

Time flies and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

"Buzz!"

In the compound of the research institute, a black sedan was constantly moving around, turning, and reversing. Its silky smoothness constantly aroused the admiration of the surrounding workers and technicians.

"I didn't expect our dean's driving skills are so good!"

"Yeah, I just thought the dean was going to crash his car into the wall!"

Several technicians kept watching the cars moving around the square, and the envy in their eyes was beyond words.

After all, it’s okay that the dean has an incredible talent in mechanics, but they didn’t expect that the dean is so good at driving.

In the car, Zhou Tian was concentrating on operating the steering wheel, with all kinds of vehicle data flashing in his mind. As he turned, changed gears, and reversed, gradually his driving skills from his previous life began to merge with this life.

In a sense, it is even better, especially in controlling the direction. He can clearly feel that with the power assistance system, the steering wheel is no longer as difficult to control as that of a jeep. He can even easily change the direction of the vehicle by turning it with a little force.

The only thing that made him feel a little uncomfortable was that it was still far worse than the easy control in his previous life. However, at this moment, it was considered very good!

"Here!"

With a brake sound, the car stopped directly in front of Zhang Mingzhi and his companions, and Zhou Tian got out of the car.

"Dean, how is it?"

Zhang Mingzhi, Song Weiguo and others hurriedly stepped forward and asked!
