The car giant started by marrying the daughter of the king

Chapter 149: Industry shock, FAW plays its cards

It was a sunny Monday, but the temperature was still several degrees below zero.

As soon as Jiang Hui returned to the factory, he felt that the atmosphere was a little different from usual.

Many people's faces were filled with excitement.

And when Jiang Hui returned to the office after breakfast, it went without saying.

Chen Chenxing, who had arrived early, came over immediately and asked, "Master, the leader came to inspect yesterday, and I saw you in almost every shot."

"Engineer Zheng and Chief Engineer Chen combined don't make as many appearances as you do."

Chen Chenxing must be very happy that his master has become famous.

Especially this time the situation is very different, he can show off to his parents and brothers at home.

Otherwise, other people might have some doubts about the fact that they had chosen a young master.

Now, even in such an important inspection occasion, Jiang Hui can shine. Invisibly, this is a strong endorsement of Jiang Hui's personal ability.

"I hadn't heard anything about it when I got off work on Saturday, but suddenly such big news came out last night. It really scared me."

Although Hou Guoming did not have a high position in the technical department before, he was always looked down upon because of his background.

But his income is not low. He, known as "Engineer Hou", is a real engineer.

As the capital is a Category 6 region, people who can be called engineers have to start with a salary of at least Level 9, which is 100 yuan a month.

Unlike Jiang Hui, who is called "Engineer Jiang", it would be more accurate to call him "Technician Jiang".

As a high-income person of this era, it is normal for Hou Guoming's family to have their own TV.

"I had just returned home on Saturday night when I received a call from the factory."

"The contact number I left at the factory was the number of the dormitory building gate guard. When I first heard the gate guard, Mr. Li, calling me downstairs to call and saying that someone in the factory was looking for me, I thought something serious had happened."

Jiang Hui knew that everyone in the factory must be very interested in yesterday's special visitor.

As long as the content is not sensitive, Jiang Hui is willing to have a good chat with Chen Chenxing and Hou Guoming.

After all, they are all family.

"For this kind of inspection, either you tell them a possible time range long in advance, and then decide on the specific time at the last minute."

"Or they contacted me out of the blue and said they wanted to come over for an inspection. This time we were the second type."

After hearing what Jiang Hui said, Hou Guoming could understand.

At his age, he has experienced many things at the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant.

The boss had come here to inspect the factory before, and even the words "Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant" were inscribed by him.

Therefore, he has a certain understanding of the reception arrangements for inspections at various levels.

"Master, our new BJ212 test drive event a while ago has become quite popular, and has been reported in many newspapers and news."

"Now that there is another inspection like this, its popularity in the national automotive industry has completely risen."

“It’s not surprising that the news has even spread overseas.”

Chen Chenxing is very excited now.

The new BJ212 is popular, which means Jiang Hui will most likely become popular as well. As an apprentice, he will definitely be able to enjoy a lot of benefits.

To some extent, there is also a chance for everyone to rise to prominence.

"Although our new BJ212 has made great progress compared with other domestic manufacturers, there is still a big gap with the international advanced level."

"There's no need for us to be too proud."

Although it is not appropriate to pour cold water on Chen Chenxing and the others at this time, as someone who is very close to Jiang Hui, if he behaves too eccentrically, some people might become jealous behind his back.

Even though there is a saying that if you are not envied by others, you are a mediocre person, Jiang Hui still hopes to reduce the jealousy of other people in the factory towards him as much as possible.

After all, in the next few years, he plans to stay in the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant and improve his level.

Under the current system, if your level is too low, it will be very difficult to accomplish anything big.

Jiang Hui saw this very clearly.

However, sometimes they cannot avoid being envied just because they are humble and low-key.

Yesterday's news was broadcast on the China Television News Network, and this program can be received by televisions in almost all parts of the country.

Almost everyone who has a TV at home saw this news last night.

Leaders at all levels at FAW are naturally no exception.

As the deputy chief engineer who had more contact with Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant, Yu Jiang was called over by the factory director Geng Weidong early in the morning.

"Chief Engineer Yu, I heard that when you were on a business trip to the capital last week, you also went to the Capital Automobile Factory to test drive their new BI212?"

Geng Weidong was in a heavy mood. After meeting Yu Jiang, he didn't beat around the bush but went straight to the point.

"Boss Geng, Wang Le from the design department and I went on a business trip to the Capital Gear Factory last week and we did test drive the new BJ212." "We also visited the clay model of this car before, but objectively speaking, the real car has a greater impact on people than the clay model."

"Capital Automobile Manufacturing has really emerged as a dark horse this time. The new BJ212 has made huge breakthroughs in power, chassis and appearance."

“However, whether the quality can be controlled after implementing so many changes at once is a question worthy of discussion.”

Yu Jiang naturally watched the news last night and knew why Geng Weidong came to see him so early in the morning.

After a quick thought, he knew it would be better for him to report as truthfully as possible.

Otherwise, it would lead to Geng Weidong's misjudgment, which would be very troublesome.

"FAW is the country's leading automobile manufacturer, but we haven't produced any outstanding products in the past two years."

"At least there is no model like the Capital Automobile Works' new BJ212 that can cause a national sensation. This is very detrimental to our development."

"Do you have any ideas about this issue?"

Geng Weidong's question put Yu Jiang under great pressure.

Of course, he also hopes that all of FAW's products can have excellent performance, whether it is the appearance of the vehicle, the power configuration, or the chassis design, they can all satisfy everyone.

But this kind of thing is not something he can achieve just by wanting it.

He also hoped that FAW could become a global automobile giant like General Motors.

is that useful?
"Boss Geng, the last time I attended the "Automobile Design" course organized by the First Ministry of Machinery Industry, I invited the training instructor Jiang Hui to come to work in our factory."

"As far as I know, the major contributor to the big changes in the new BJ212 produced by Capital Automobile Manufacturing is Jiang Hui."

"When the chief designer went to inspect the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant yesterday, the young man who was in charge of explaining the event was him. He appeared in many scenes in the news broadcast."

"If we can find a way to recruit him, it will definitely be of great benefit to the development of new products in the future."

Yu Jiang has a very clear understanding of his own strengths and the strengths of FAW Design Department.

If FAW is asked to design a product that can cause a sensation like the new BJ212, it will have no confidence at all.

But he couldn't help but answer Geng Weidong's question.

Since FAW can't handle it, let's look for someone outside who can do it.

As long as Jiang Hui could be poached, he felt that the new product that Geng Weidong wanted would definitely appear in FAW.

"This Jiang Hui looks very young. What position does he hold at the Capital Automobile Factory?"

Geng Weidong was still very interested in Yu Jiang's proposal.

As the big brother of China's automobile industry, FAW is very attractive to people all over the country.

Its welfare benefits are also very good, and the factory takes care of almost everything from your birth, aging, sickness and death.

People in later generations said that Samsung of Goryeo ran companies related to everything about the Goryeo people from birth to death. In fact, FAW of that era did much better than Samsung in this regard.

Basically, as long as you are a FAW worker, your happiness index in the local area is definitely much higher than that of any civil servant.

Many people would rather work in factories than in relevant departments because the welfare benefits in factories are much better than those in relevant departments in this era.

Thirty years later, the situation was completely reversed.

"He just graduated from the Vehicle Engineering Department of Capital Institute of Technology last year. He is now the head of the chassis group of the Technical Department of the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant and also the liaison officer of the BJ212 upgrade project team office."

Yu Jiang had done all kinds of research on Jiang Hui, so when Geng Weidong asked, he immediately answered.

"Workers, peasants and soldiers?"

Since the resumption of the college entrance examination, the once glorious image of workers, peasants and soldiers college students has undergone tremendous changes.

People like Geng Weidong, who graduated from a reputable university, have a lot of opinions about the workers, peasants and soldiers who graduated.

"Yes!"

Yu Jiang said with certainty, and then added: "But his technical level is indeed very impressive. Even ordinary old engineers and professors in the school may not be better than him."

"The most important thing is that his ideas are very imaginative. In terms of the development of new technologies and the design of new models, he has advantages that most people cannot match."

"His position at the Capital Automobile Factory is not very high at the moment. I think if we work hard, we may be able to recruit him."

The idea of ​​poaching people was proposed by Yu Jiang, and he definitely wanted to introduce Jiang Hui's strength.

Otherwise, it would be a bit exaggerated to go through so much trouble to poach a grassroots manager across factories and regions.

"In that case, then you should go to the capital and have a good chat with Jiang Hui."

"As long as he is willing to come, we can reserve a position of section chief for him in the design department."

"If you have any other requests, feel free to ask."

Geng Weidong waved his hand and set the tone for Yu Jiang.
