A doctor who travels through two eras

Zhou Daxin was also taken aback: "Ten thousand units? Holy crap, what company has such a huge appetite? How come I didn't know about this?"

The secretary glanced at the documents: "It's the 3721 Import and Export Trading Company under the Lingnantang Group, located in Huadu."

"Lingnan Hall in Huadu?"

Kong Dehong, being in sales, was naturally well-informed: "Is it the one that sells ginseng?"

The staff member nodded repeatedly: "Yes, they also said that their main business is selling ginseng and cordyceps. I've heard of them; they're quite famous."

Another middle manager also confirmed this:
"Lingnan Hall not only sells ginseng, but they also own a high-end traditional Chinese medicine hospital, staffed entirely with nationally renowned TCM doctors and using only top-quality medicinal herbs. It's just expensive. My father-in-law went to see them, and the treatment was quite effective. A course of treatment lasted 7 days and cost 20 yuan in medicine."

hiss~~~
Everyone was shocked once again.
"So expensive? Seven doses of medicine for 20? That's highway robbery!"

"That must be a lot of profit. This company must be quite wealthy."

One of the middle managers was puzzled: "When did ginseng sellers start needing all-terrain vehicles? Are they planning to open a ginseng-themed amusement park?"

Zhou Daxin stubbed out his cigarette and jumped to his feet.

"Why should they buy the car to go and see what they're going to do with it? Even if they say they want to deploy it on the battlefield, that's their business. Since Lingnan Hall has plenty of money, if one dares to buy, the other dares to sell. Meeting adjourned. I'll call them myself to confirm."

Three days later, at Quancheng Airport.

Zhou Daxin personally led all the management of Daisy Company to wait at the airport exit, and even arranged for the two most beautiful staff members in the company to hold flowers.

When Lin Sanqi came out, he was quite surprised to see a group of people in suits holding up signs that read "Chairman Lin of Lingnan Hall".

I thought to myself, "These fellow Shandong natives are really warm and welcoming."

Lin Sanqi only brought Yao Zhuohan, his secretary, and the two of them came lightly equipped.

Qiao Jingzhu, the general manager of 3721 Company, did not come along because she wanted to avoid trouble, since Lin Sanqi and Qiao Jingzhu are uncle and sister-in-law.

If the younger brother-in-law takes his sister-in-law on business trips every day, it will inevitably attract gossip over time and cause family conflicts, and he will definitely be beaten to death by his grandfather.

Therefore, every time business is discussed, it is Lin Sanqi who takes the lead, selects the target company, and then lets Qiao Jingzhu handle the specific negotiations.

"Hello, I am Lin Sanqi from Lingnan Hall."

When Zhou Daxin saw that the two young men and women who looked like tourists were actually the bosses of a large group, he was a little stunned.

"Oh, oh, Chairman Lin, welcome, welcome. I am Zhou Daxin from Zibo Daisy Industry Co., Ltd. We spoke on the phone before."

Lin Sanqi smiled and the two shook hands.

"Jay Chou, right? I can tell from your voice. I'm flattered that you came to greet me in person."

Zhou Daxin also had a big smile on his face:
"Not at all, not at all. It's our honor that Chairman Lin is here to inspect our Daisy Company. We can't possibly go to any lengths to provide you with the best service. Come, let me introduce you to Chairman Lin. This is our company's General Manager... This is the Sales Director... This is the Production Director..."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the two sides got into the car and headed towards Zibo.

In the car, Zhou Daxin cautiously probed:

"Chairman Lin, you mentioned on the phone last time that you wanted to purchase no less than 10,000 all-terrain vehicles. I'd like to ask, what type of all-terrain vehicles are you looking to buy? That would help us prepare accordingly."

Zhou Daxin was wary of people from the South, fearing he might run into a fraudster.

From the other party's needs, he can roughly determine whether it is a scam or where the specific destination is.

Lin Sanqi didn't know much about "Lynx" and didn't know how to answer immediately:

"I've seen pictures of your company's products on the website. Mr. Zhou, could you please explain the product categories?"

Zhou Daxin felt a chill run down his spine. How could someone not know what they wanted to buy when discussing business? Was he kidding him?

But since the conversation had already turned to business reception, Zhou Daxin could only suppress his disappointment and continue to introduce the topic with a smile:
An all-terrain vehicle is a light-duty vehicle designed specifically for off-road driving. It is equipped with four or more low-pressure tires, enabling it to travel freely off-road.

All-terrain vehicles can be further classified according to their power source into internal combustion engine all-terrain vehicles, electric all-terrain vehicles, pure electric all-terrain vehicles, and hybrid (electric) all-terrain vehicles.

They can also be further classified according to their vehicle structure.

Among them, the four-wheeled all-terrain vehicle, abbreviated as ATV, is a frame vehicle equipped with a straddle-type seat and controlled by a handlebar.

Based on its application and structural characteristics, it has 12 different detailed classifications.

Meanwhile, multi-purpose all-terrain vehicles, also known as UV and recreational go-karts, are also members of the all-terrain vehicle family. They are equipped with forward-facing seats and enclosed or semi-enclosed cabs, as well as frame structures, and are steered using a steering wheel.

Our Daisy Company can produce all types of all-terrain vehicles, so whatever specific model or type of all-terrain vehicle Mr. Lin requires, we can absolutely guarantee production and delivery with high quality and quantity.

Lin Sanqi was a little disappointed when she heard this. Goodness, after all that explanation, it's still just a toy car.

What's the difference between a toy car and a military vehicle? This left Lin Sanqi uncertain.

Two people, both feeling utterly disheartened and harboring their own secrets, arrived at the Daisy Company headquarters an hour later.

In the product showroom.

Zhou Daxin returned to his home turf and came to his senses. He decided to play a few rounds first and see what happens. The warm-hearted Shandong people wouldn't look down on anyone; all guests are welcome.

A pretty female staff member is enthusiastically introducing her company's products.

Lin Sanqi looked up at the huge showroom and found that there were at least 20 all-terrain vehicles on display, including two-wheeled, three-wheeled, four-wheeled, and some with eight tires.

This demonstrates that Daisy Company is indeed the strongest in the civilian all-terrain vehicle market.

The question is, how strong is the off-road mobility of this car, which is only slightly larger than a steamed fish head with chopped chili peppers?
As they walked, they introduced the vehicles, until they came to a small car with eight tires. Lin Sanqi became interested:
"Mr. Jay Chou, what kind of environments and terrains can this eight-wheeled all-terrain vehicle be mainly used in?"

Zhou Daxin said with a smile:
"Chairman Lin is a young man, and he really likes this kind of muscular, manly car. The one in front of us is called an 8x8 all-terrain vehicle. It can carry one driver and five passengers. The empty weight is one and a half tons, and the effective payload capacity is 1100 kilograms."

From a configuration standpoint, the diesel engine delivers 87 horsepower, enabling a top road speed of 80 km/h. On water, the speed is also around 5 km/h…”

Lin Sanqi chuckled upon hearing this: "Huh, this vehicle is amphibious?"

Zhou Xinda proudly said:

"That's right. This vehicle can go anywhere, whether it's in the sky or on the ground, making it perfect for outdoor adventure projects. We've exported it to countries like Brazil, Canada, Morocco, and Spain, and it's very popular with outdoor enthusiasts."

Lin Sanqi stroked his chin and finally asked a question he had always wanted to ask:

“Jay Chou, I’ve looked up information online before. It seems that the military also has similar all-terrain vehicles. One of them has eight wheels and can carry six soldiers. It can run very fast in the field.”

My question is, how different is this all-terrain vehicle we're looking at from the military version?

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xinda's smile widened even further:

"Chairman Lin, you may not believe it, but the technology of all our products is in no way inferior to that of the military. In fact, many of our technologies are based on advanced foreign technologies."

"foreign?"

"Yes, there are also excellent all-terrain vehicles in other countries, such as Japan and the United States. We can buy foreign all-terrain vehicles, take them apart and study them. It's not too difficult, since all-terrain vehicles themselves don't have much technical content."

Lin Sanqi was a little surprised: "Aren't you afraid of being sued?"

Zhou Daxin said indifferently:

"Sue? How? We didn't copy it one-to-one, that would be too low-class. We bought the all-terrain vehicle, learned about the design concept and manufacturing process, and then innovated on that basis."

When it comes to copying, if our country claims to be second, who dares to claim to be first?

The 8x8 all-terrain vehicle in front of us is a copy of the Argo 850. However, its performance and quality are now far superior to the Argo 850.

I'm not exaggerating, if this vehicle were to be used for military purposes, all it would need to do is change the paint job and it would be ready for the battlefield.

We can imagine that on a chaotic battlefield, tanks and armored vehicles are very easy targets to be hit by drones or artillery shells because they are too big and move too slowly.

But if we drive such a small all-terrain vehicle, wouldn't it be like a mudfish darting around in the midst of war, making it difficult for enemy artillery fire to target us?

The enemy can't hit it, isn't this mobility enough? What if we also put weapon mounts on this car?

For example, if you install a machine gun here, the all-terrain vehicle can move around the battlefield while the machine gun fires in tandem, making it more effective than a squad.

"Or, if we install a few fixed racks here, mount a mortar, fire one shot, then move to a different spot, wouldn't that inflict maximum damage on the enemy, while preventing them from hitting us? Hahaha."

Zhou Daxin talked on and on, becoming more and more excited and enthusiastic as he spoke. Lin Sanqi asked timidly:
"Mr. Jay Chou, you used to be a soldier, right?"

Zhou Daxin was a little puzzled: "Right, we fought those monkeys in the south back then, is it that obvious?"

Everyone nodded: "Yes!" (End of Chapter)
