Chapter 1208 Motor Vehicle Technology R&D Laboratory
When I came to the R&D project team, in fact, it was a site specially transformed from a factory building for the experimental project team to use.This is also the heart of the R&D laboratory for automotive or motor vehicle technology.The entire laboratory is completed on an independent production plant, which is divided into two floors.The first floor is the test area, which is assigned to multiple project teams for the verification and practical operation of various technologies in the vehicle body.The second floor is the main office area, where offices, conference rooms and other facilities are concentrated.

When he brought Jiang Chen here, Zhou Gong was already waiting for them.This Zhou Gong was introduced before. He was originally the chief engineer and leader of the off-road vehicle research project team.After the integration of the entire automotive R&D industry, he also served as the general manager of the entire automotive technology R&D laboratory, responsible for coordinating the R&D work of various project teams in the laboratory.Of course, he personally presided over the research and development of this wheeled armored vehicle project.The reason for this is that he was in charge of the research and development of military off-road vehicle projects before and has experience in military vehicles.The other is that if he comes, he will be able to integrate the research resources of the entire laboratory, give full play to the capabilities of the entire laboratory, and even the scientific and technological capabilities of the entire western industrial company.

"Zhou Gong, why did you come out in person?" Jiang Chen went up to hold Zhou Gong's outstretched hand and smiled.

Zhou Gong looked at Jiang Chen and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a while, this time you can spare some time to visit us, how can I not show my gratitude to the landlord. Going out to greet you in person is also a sign of our respect. Warm welcome."

"Hahahaha,,, everyone is our own, why bother to be so polite." Jiang Chen looked at the crowd and said with a smile: "Okay, I'm here this time to see the progress of our wheeled chariot research and development work , everyone, let’s leave, don’t delay your own work, it’s fine if Zhou Gong and the others are here.”

"Okay, okay, everyone listen to Mr. Jiang, let's go." Zhou Gong also waved his hands.

After everyone dispersed, Jiang Chen smiled at Zhou Gong and said, "Zhou Gong, let's talk while walking. I heard that you have made great progress this time, and I can't wait."

"Haha, I'm still in a hurry. Let's go, let's talk as we walk." Zhou Gongchang laughed.

He and Zhou Gong and others walked into the factory building, no, it should be said to be a laboratory.I saw that the wide factory workshop on the first floor was divided into small spaces, and some people were busy in each area.Moreover, the objects these people are busy with are not the same, there are finished cars, there are also scattered parts, or there is only one car skeleton.There are cars, off-road vehicles, trucks, and tractors.And some other research and development projects, such as this all-terrain vehicle, and this engineering vehicle and so on.

And Zhou Gong, who accompanied Jiang Chen, introduced to Jiang Chen with a smile: "Xiao Jiang, this is all about our motor vehicle technology research laboratory. There are a total of 23 research and development project plans here. It covers all aspects of the motor vehicle technology field. There is a car project that is about to be delivered for production, and there is also a truck project that is still in the overall design and exists in the drawings. Therefore, the workload is very moderate. It can be said that working overtime and staying up late is a regular thing here. There are some newcomers before A research expert, seeing that we have a lot of tasks and things that can be researched and solved, is very excited, thinking that this is heaven. It is because he is in the original unit, because of lack of funds, so there is nothing to do overall, so he will They came to us. But it didn’t take long for these people to be unbearable, crying and complaining about the pressure of our work, and even an old expert who came here for more than half a year, and his hair was all gray.”

Jiang Chen couldn't help but laugh when he heard the words: "Zhou Gong, although the project is more important, everyone's health is still very important. We can't patronize the grades and ignore everyone's quality of life. So in this regard, you still have to Take some time."

Zhou Gong shook his head and smiled wryly: "It's okay, why don't you just go and look at our relevant customary systems. But it's useless. Once these people enter the working state, they are so busy that they forget it. For example, eating, For example, river water, or sleep. Some people even forgot to go to the toilet, and finally they couldn’t take it anymore, so they suddenly realized that he had been suffocating since the morning.”

"But we still have to manage it, otherwise, how can people bear it if things go on like this in the long run. In this way, you can refer to the relevant systems of other laboratories. The working hours of all scientific researchers are liberalized, as long as the number of hours per week is full. , you can rest at home instead of coming to the laboratory. If you violate it, then you will be punished accordingly. Of course, I know that this fine is definitely not acceptable, but we can change it in another way. For example, mandatory exercise, or Deduct and fine the scientific research funds that they are most concerned about. I think they will get used to it slowly.” Jiang Chen thought about the exercise and then pointed at Zhou Gong.

"However, in this way, the progress of related projects will be much slower, and the corresponding costs will also increase a lot." Zhou Gong said with some concern.

Jiang Chen waved his hand and said, "What's the matter? We can still afford this cost, and this is what it should be. We need to take a longer view. This system is beneficial to us in the long run. Yes. As for the impact in a short period of time, it is just the friction of the adaptation stage, so it is not a cause for concern.”

"Okay, we understand. Next, we will conduct special research and discussions on this aspect, and strive to formulate some more flexible systems that everyone can accept and obey." Zhou Gong nodded.

Jiang Chen looked around the environment of the factory building, then frowned and said to Zhou Gong: "Zhou Gong, why don't you change the laboratory to a new environment. After all, this is the factory building. It is not perfect, and the environment is a bit poor. It is not conducive to your comfort experience, but also affects your office efficiency. Now our company is making good profits, especially in terms of cars. I want to build a new building for our laboratory or It is a new laboratory, I believe that no one in the whole company will say anything."

Zhou Gong shook his head and looked at everything in this factory building and said: "What are you doing with this money? It's very good here. We are engaged in motor vehicle research, so it is suitable for this kind of factory building, so there is more atmosphere. In order to stimulate inspiration. Besides, everyone is used to it here and has feelings. It’s so troublesome to move around, so let’s just stay here. Moreover, if we move to a new, spotless laboratory like them, what are we going to do? Research? Let alone work, it just looks awkward. So compared to that, I like this one better, it has the style of high mechanical research."

"Hey, you don't understand why I told you this." Zhou Gong shook his head and laughed at himself.
