Chapter 705 Clay Modeler

Chen Zhixin did not pretend to understand, and asked curiously: "Is there anything special about this JDZ Ceramics Academy?"

"Yes," Zhang Qihang said without telling the truth, "In the localization project of Santana 2000, you also cooperated with the design department of foreign automobile companies. You should know that in foreign automobile companies, the division of labor in design departments is very detailed. It’s very scientific, for example, designers alone can be subdivided into many positions, such as color designers, texture designers, etc., right?”

Chen Zhixin nodded subconsciously, and said with an embarrassed face: "Isn't that right, we used to visit FAW when we were in school, and thought FAW was really powerful, but this time in the Santana 2000 project team, I saw how foreign auto companies develop Only with a new car can we know how big the gap is between us and others..."

"This is no longer a question of 'there is a gap of several years between us and the other party'," Wu Xuedong couldn't help interjecting, "It's a comprehensive, intellectual gap, a conceptual gap..."

"That's right, that's it, and that's why I want to start this car design company," Zhang Qihang nodded with a smile: "I'll come back and talk about why I went to JDZ Ceramics Academy to seek cooperation. I know that in foreign car design companies, there is a post called 'clay modeler'..."

Before Zhang Qihang finished speaking, Wu Xuedong slapped himself on the forehead, and said angrily, "Why did I forget this?"

The so-called clay modeler, as the name suggests, is a person who uses clay to make various models, and when it comes to the segmented field of car design, clay model is an indispensable member of the entire car design process.

Why do you say that?
Because the biggest feature of designers lies in creativity and innovation, in understanding the design needs of customers, in grasping fashion trends and taking into account engineering feasibility and cost, and belongs to the "brain" in the entire car design work, while clay models The duty of the designer is to cooperate with the designers to transform their ideas from two-dimensional objects into intuitive three-dimensional models, and to further enhance and perfect the designers' ideas in the process.

And because the car model is an intuitive and three-dimensional entity, it is the focus of each customer review, and it is the most effective and most visually impactful display. The clay model that reflects the designer's creativity is the most critical link, so it is not polite to say that the role played by the model in the entire design process is crucial.

After all, the renderings and digital models are still two-dimensional after all. For customers or bosses who do not have strong spatial imagination, they will not stare at the renderings and put forward too many opinions, let alone stare at the digital models in the computer. Because they are unprofessional in plane or computer three-dimensional data, but if there is a more intuitive clay model in front of them, the situation will be completely different.

It is not the point of interest, so there are not many effective opinions. When it comes to the intuitive model, whether it is a professional or an amateur, the beauty, style, and proportion of a design are clear at a glance. In the field of design, the review based on the physical model is the most reliable and trustworthy, and it can best reflect the problems and reflect the phased labor results of the design unit.

This is the value of the model, and the value of the modeler who made the model.

When everyone went to Brazil before, they were still amazed at the level of the car clay modelers of Brazil Latin American Automobile Company. While admiring, they also felt that our country’s automobile industry has developed for so many years, and even a car clay modeler can’t be found. Unexpectedly, Zhang Qihang found a solution to the problem while the words were still in his ears.

"Why did I forget about the JDZ Ceramics Academy?" Wu Xuedong said while patting his thigh: "Although the clay used in ceramics and car design is not the same thing, the production of ceramics needs to be made of embryos. Although I I don’t know what the JDZ Ceramics Academy is like, but they have always focused on ceramics, and they must be more familiar with the job of ‘playing with mud’ than us.”

"That's the reason." Zhou Xiyuan also nodded again and again, and his thoughts were suddenly opened up: "Not only ceramics, don't those art colleges have sculpture and clay sculpture majors, I think we can also find some of these Professional students come here, so we can focus more on design.”

Brothers Ma Yaohua and Chen Zhixin nodded frequently, obviously agreeing with the words of information officer Zhou and Wu Xuedong.

Looking at the brothers who were flushed with excitement, Zhang Qihang asked: "The brothers..."

"No problem!" Ma Yaohua spoke first: "Since you have been so thoughtful, third child, what else do I have to say? I'm going to resign later."

"Me too," followed Ma Yaohua, and Wu Xuedong also expressed his opinion: "In the past two years in SAIC, I feel that the edges and corners of my whole person have been smoothed out. With this opportunity given by you, third child, and the treatment is not bad, why should I hesitate?"

Zhou Xiyuan pondered for a while, and after Ma Yaohua and Wu Xuedong finished talking, he suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked Zhang Qihang: "Third brother, can you tell me what you want to achieve in the end?" What kind of goal?"

As soon as Zhou Xiyuan finished speaking, the eyes of the remaining brothers all fell on Zhang Qihang: All brothers are very curious about this question.

Zhang Qihang did not hesitate, and said: "I hope that in 20 years, Huateng Industrial Group will be an international automobile manufacturer with a complete range of products and its own core competitiveness. We will not only be able to design an excellent automobile by ourselves, but also Not only that, I also hope that when our car is unveiled in front of the world for the first time, it can attract people's exclamation of 'Wow...', and even lead the world. The car fashion of the..."

Before Zhang Qihang finished speaking, Chen Zhixin asked weakly: "Third brother, do you think we can really do it?"

"I'm working on this right now," Zhang Qihang laughed when he heard this, "And I also hope that my brothers can come and help me together."

This time, no one hesitated, and the four brothers nodded heavily together.
