Rebirth in 1989: Building a Chinese Technological Empire

In the workshop, Xu Huasheng got on the car and looked at the prototypes in person, then nodded with satisfaction.

Although there are twelve prototypes, there are multiple versions. The reason for multiple versions is very simple.

Xu Huasheng plans to put this car on two brands to differentiate it. Just like Toyota and Lexus, one is low-end and the other is luxury.

The low-end model is placed on the Xuanwu brand, which is the lowest-end brand of Shanhai Automobile. The setting is a cheap tool car belonging to China, which focuses on durability and has almost no comfort and luxury configuration. The engine used is a naturally aspirated engine, which has low horsepower but is very tough and has a low failure rate.

Not only that, the low-end car even has two versions of suspension. One is an independent suspension, which is more comfortable, but the price is slightly more expensive, and the extreme off-road performance is slightly weaker.

The other version uses an integral front axle, which is the integral front axle used by the LC80. This integral front axle has stronger extreme off-road performance, but the comfort is much worse. In fact, this model is the LC105 model of Toyota Land Cruiser.

In fact, when the Land Cruiser was first launched, it was not smooth sailing. Due to the lack of market recognition in the early stage, the J100 series experienced a "degeneration". In some areas of Africa, Latin America and Australia, due to the poor road conditions, consumers are very reluctant to buy the front independent suspension.

So Toyota readjusted the product line in these markets and launched the LC105 series, that is, the LC100 with the J80 series front integral bridge, and then saved the market. Now Xuanwu has directly launched two versions, which can directly avoid this situation. After all, the target of this car is not only the Chinese market, but the global market.

Besides, the road conditions in many places in China are also very poor, and many places also need this kind of extreme off-road vehicle.

The low-end model is the Xuanwu brand, and the high-end model is the Baihu brand, taking the luxury route. Although it is a shell-changing car, the car gives people a completely different feeling from the inside to the outside.

Xu Huasheng sat in the Baihu brand car, looking at the interior and touching the leather seats, with satisfaction on his face.

This interior is absolutely top-notch luxury in this era. Not to mention Mercedes-Benz, which is famous for its luxury, even Rolls-Royce would have to stand aside.

This interior style is completely the interior style of thirty years later. In this era, this sense of luxury directly crushes all opponents. Almost all of it is solid wood and leather, and it is luxurious.

In addition to the luxurious interior, the configuration is also quite luxurious. For example, there are up to twelve high-quality speakers in the whole car, such as the LCD display central control screen, which are unique in this era.

Now even the top luxury cars have a radio in the central control.

However, this car uses an LCD display screen and has a DVD function, which can even watch movies. Although it cannot touch the screen, when the car starts, the high-end feeling of the big screen is not available in all luxury cars of this era, especially at night, coupled with the unique atmosphere light, it is absolutely luxurious.

At the same time, this car has also done a lot of system engineering in terms of sound insulation and noise reduction. The degree of noise control in the car beats almost all cars in this era.

In addition to the luxurious interior, the Baihu brand's Land Cruiser is more powerful, using a twin-turbocharged all-aluminum engine with more powerful horsepower and lighter weight.

The Xuanwu car has a small engine horsepower and a cast iron engine.

The gearbox is also different. The Xuanwu brand's gearbox is a five-speed manual gearbox, which is durable and cheap.

The Baihu brand uses a 5AT gearbox, which is a product of a completely different era from the five-speed manual gearbox.

In a word, the Xuanwu Land Cruiser is a cheap tool car, which is cheap and durable with low configuration. Without reducing safety, it can be simplified. If you want to be more comfortable, you have to choose comfort configuration.

The Baihu is a luxury off-road vehicle, which is luxurious, comfortable and powerful. The extreme off-road capability is not bad. Although the suspension uses independent suspension, the car has very strong power, and in many cases it can work miracles.

Besides, how many people who buy this car have nothing to do and go to extreme off-road every day? Most of them drive in the city or go on self-driving tours, and they rarely go to extreme off-road. People who drive this car want that kind of face and style.

Twelve cars, three cars for each engine. Two gearboxes, six cars for each gearbox.

"Have you tried them all?"

After looking around the cars, Xu Huasheng asked.

"Mr. Xu, we have carried out basic tests at our test track, and there are no problems with the basic tests. But the specific performance of the car depends on the next road test."

The person in charge said seriously, and Xu Huasheng nodded with expectation in his eyes.

AlthoughXu Huasheng was very confident in the design he had come up with, but road testing was still necessary. Only after rigorous road testing could we know all the conditions of the car, especially the performance and reliability of the engine and gearbox, which required rigorous testing.

And the various tuning data of the car also needed to be adjusted continuously during the road test to achieve the most appropriate state.

"Since everything is ready, let's set off tomorrow. Pay attention to safety on the road and report any situation at any time..."

Xu Huasheng explained, and he also looked forward to the early completion of the road test and finalization of this car.

After coming out of the Power Research Institute, Xu Huasheng walked into the Energy Research Institute not far away. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw a group of engineers testing photovoltaic panels in the yard.

"Hello, Mr. Xu..."

Seeing Xu Huasheng coming over, everyone greeted Xu Huasheng.

"How is it?"

Looking at the several new photovoltaic panels being tested in the yard, Xu Huasheng asked.

"Mr. Xu, the photovoltaic panels have been tested and can be mass-produced. Didn't you say you wanted to make a rack? This is the photovoltaic bracket we designed. There is a light sensor here, and there is an electric steering mechanism on the rack. This rack can automatically adjust the tilt angle according to the different angles of sunlight..."

The technician said with a smile.

What they tested today is this photovoltaic rack. In fact, this rack is very simple. It is a steel pipe rack with a motor steering mechanism and a light sensor on the rack.

After the sun comes out, the light sensor will automatically adjust the direction and tilt angle of the solar panel according to the sensed data, so that the solar panel can be aimed at the sun at the best angle throughout the day to achieve the maximum power generation efficiency.

In fact, many photovoltaic power plants do not have photovoltaic panels with this thing. After all, adding this thing to a rack will increase the cost a lot.

But this time the photovoltaic panels are exported to Saudi Arabia, where they have money. Huasheng Group also gave them two sets of solutions, one is an ordinary rack and the other is an automatic rack. They chose the automatic rack, and Huasheng Group can only do it. Who lets the customer be God?

Xu Huasheng looked at the rack and nodded, and then learned about the progress of the factory, and finally his face was full of satisfaction.

Now the new photovoltaic panels have been finalized and can be mass-produced, the customized production line of the industrial park has basically been installed, and the racks have been tested. The next step is large-scale production. After the corresponding photovoltaic panels, racks, controllers, inverters and other accessories are produced, a photovoltaic power station can be built in Saudi Arabia. This project is of great significance and cannot be wrong, because the success or failure of the photovoltaic power plant is related to the progress of a series of subsequent projects.

And this thing is a model project. Only when this project is done well can more projects be won in the world. The photovoltaic industry is a huge industry.
