Chapter 35 Flexible Solutions

"The upgrade of the engine depends on the Capital Internal Combustion Engine Factory. The management department conveyed the requirements last Saturday."

"As for the improvement of the gearbox, it also depends on the efforts of the Capital Gear Factory. We can't help much."

"As for the chassis, I think the BJ212's chassis is already quite good, so whether it is modified or not is not the point."

Xu Xiaobo didn't want to smoke at first, but when he saw the smell of smoke in the conference room getting stronger and stronger, he picked up a cigarette, lit it with a match, and started puffing away.

Anyway, he knew that this meeting probably wouldn't end so soon.

"Our BJ212 has been in production since 1966, and it has been in production for twelve years. It is now old and there are many opinions from all parties."

"So if we want to change the model, we need to update it in all aspects."

"Whether it's the engine and gearbox, or the chassis, body, interior and exterior, all of them need to be technically upgraded."

"We want to develop a second-generation BJ212 model that can meet the needs of the next decade."

As the director of the design department, Lu Jianqiang personally participated in the design of the BJ210 prototype and the subsequent research and development of BJ212.

However, he has not done any related work for more than ten years, so it would be impossible for him to draw again.

But he still has some basic vision.

This time, the Design Department must come up with a plan that will satisfy the Ministry of First Machine Building and must not be perfunctory.

Otherwise, Lu Jianqiang felt that his situation might not be very good.

After all, the current situation is completely different from what it was a few years ago, and it is no longer enough to just rely on empty talk.

"Director, I think we should call the technical backbones of the main supporting factories to hold a meeting so that we can discuss specific improvement plans?"

Yu Jing, the head of the management department, who had been silent, stood up and opened the window to let the smoke dissipate a little, and then put forward his own opinions.

Yu Jing was very clear about the current situation of several departments in the Design Department.

If we want to get this done, we must find a solution from outside.

"Yu Ke's suggestion is good. Anyway, the supporting factories are all nearby. We can just make a phone call and have a meeting in the afternoon."

Lin Liangbiao felt that if he continued the discussion in the conference room, the chassis and body departments might focus on him.

However, the personnel strength of the interior and exterior decoration department is not much better than that of the chassis department and the body department.

He didn't want to be at the front.

“It’s also a good idea to brainstorm.”

"Then make arrangements quickly and have them come for a meeting this afternoon."

Lu Jianqiang felt that this matter could not be delayed, and that only if a charter was established as soon as possible would there be hope of success.

Even if they fail in the end, it at least shows that there is no problem with their attitude, it’s just that their ability is lacking.

"Director, I think we should also invite Jiang Hui, the new recruit from the technical department. He is the only one among the college graduates who joined the company in recent years who seems to understand technology."

"I talked to people from the Capital Auto Parts Factory last week, and they seemed to be very impressed with Jiang Hui's skills."

Li Fuda, deputy director of the Design Department, seldom expressed his opinions, but this time he knew that the Design Department had encountered a big problem.

If he can't get through this difficulty, he, the deputy director, will have a hard time.

So he rarely spoke actively.

"I discussed this with Liao Chengwen last week and wanted to transfer Jiang Hui to the chassis department, but he refused."

Xu Xiaobo complained a little dissatisfiedly. It was obvious that he had heard about Jiang Hui's deeds and wanted to dig him into the chassis department before others could react.

Not to mention anything else, the fact that Jiang Hui can upgrade the current wheel hub bearings to integrated maintenance-free wheel hub bearings is truly remarkable.

The most important thing is that the majors are relevant, and the wheel hub bearing parts being studied are all within the development scope of the chassis department.

This made Xu Xiaobo very excited.

He had no one to use his talents, and he was eager to recruit a capable person to help him with some work in the future.

As a leader, you may sometimes worry that the people below you are too capable and pose a threat to your position.

But I am more worried that there is no one below me who can do the work and I will not be able to complete the tasks assigned by my superiors.

"Xu Ke, he's just a worker-peasant-soldier college student. Aren't you expecting too much from him?"

Zhang Wuchao found it a little hard to understand why so many people were going through so much trouble for a worker-peasant-soldier college student who had just graduated this year.

In recent years, there have been many college students from working-class, peasant-soldier backgrounds employed at the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant. Zhang Wuchao knows very well what those people are like.

A few years ago, a college student from the Capital Institute of Technology came to their body department. He didn't even know the most basic drawing and mechanical knowledge, and seemed even worse than his son who graduated from junior high school.

So when he saw Jiang Hui, a "fake college student" who graduated from the same school, he looked down on him.

"He was able to independently design a new generation of wheel hub bearings and replace the leaf springs of the BJ212 with coil springs. In this respect alone, no one in our chassis department can match him."

"The most important thing is that he not only understands the chassis, but is also very familiar with the engine, gearbox, and interior and exterior parts. This young man is extraordinary."

Xu Xiaobo really wanted to bring Jiang Hui over to work in the design department, so he praised Jiang Hui at such a rare internal meeting.

"In fact, if the technical department doesn't let us go, can we report to the factory and ask the technical department to take on the task of redesigning the BJ212 with us?"

"In that case, it is only natural for the Technical Department to arrange personnel to help."

"There's no need to transfer Jiang Hui over here, and things will be simpler."

As the only female section chief in the design department, Yu Jing has a very high emotional intelligence and knows how to communicate and coordinate various matters.

"Yu Ke's idea is good. For such a large project, the strength of the design department alone is not enough."

"Mobilize all the technical personnel in our factory and strive to complete the tasks assigned by the superiors as soon as possible."

Lu Jianqiang immediately accepted Yu Jing's suggestion.

At this time, it is not about grabbing credit, but about dragging more people into the water.

Even though the technical department was unwilling to get involved in this matter, Lu Jianqiang felt that he had the confidence to convince the factory director and chief engineer to agree to this plan.

After all, for people at the factory manager's level, they still need to consider the overall situation.

There is not enough time to think about the little thoughts of each department at this time.

Now that we have some ideas, let's end this morning's meeting here for now.

Everyone should invite supporting factories to the meeting, and do it quickly.

If you need to go and report to the factory director or chief engineer and ask them to involve the technical department, you must act immediately.

Time waits for no one, and the tasks assigned by the Ministry of First Machine Building are still very stressful.

Jiang Hui didn't know all this yet.

He went straight to a meeting room and started drawing detailed drawings of parts such as wheel hub bearings, hoping to fill in all the holes dug last week this week.
