The car giant started by marrying the daughter of the king

Chapter 49 Hearing is not as good as seeing.

Those who are difficult don’t know how to do it, and those who know how to do it are not difficult.

A 1:5 clay model is really no big deal for Jiang Hui.

All kinds of materials were prepared, and with Chen Chenxing and others helping out, the work progressed very quickly.

The inner frame is made of wood and the outside is covered with oil putty.

After a week, it already looked like what it was.

"good very good!"

"Xiao Jiang, I will invite the factory director and deputy factory directors to come over and have a look at our new generation BJ212 clay model, so that everyone can really feel its charm."

Chen Qi walked around the clay model several times with a smile on his face.

This was the first time he saw a real clay model of a car, which had a much greater impact than the sketch.

"This is not a 1:1 model, so I can't give you a strong sense of the dimensions of the model."

“按照初步的设计，新一代BJ212的车身尺寸为长4080mm×宽1840mm×高1870mm，轴距为2300mm。”

"Compared with the current model, the new model has a longer and wider body, which can provide passengers with a better riding comfort experience."

“In the next 1:1 clay model, we will further clarify the interior design in the model so that everyone can feel like they are seeing the real car.”

Jiang Hui knew that Chen Qi was very interested in the clay model, so he naturally wanted to take this opportunity to explain it to him.

Although there is a factory manager above Chen Qi, he has the final say on design and technical issues.

The factory manager generally rarely interferes directly.

As for the other deputy factory directors, although their rank is the same as that of the chief engineer, which is considered deputy department level, their ranking in the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant is lower than that of the chief engineer.

So basically, as long as Chen Qi is satisfied, you will have passed the factory assessment.

"I think there is absolutely no problem with this appearance. I will ask the factory manager to come and take a look now."

Chen Qi is also very efficient in doing things and does things as soon as he says he will.

After saying this, he personally invited the factory director Zheng Haiming and others to come for a visit.

Although Chen Qi is specifically in charge of the BJ212 upgrade project, Zheng Haiming and several other deputy factory directors are also very concerned about it.

It was very successful before, but because it is still on paper, I don’t know whether it can be successful in the end.

So everyone is too lazy to get involved if they can avoid it, so as to avoid trouble.

But the situation is different now. People have made clay models and you can directly see the appearance effect.

Then everyone heard that the Capital Gear Factory had already developed the 4MT, which solved the problem of upgrading a very critical component.

So this time, at Chen Qi's invitation, everyone put down their work and came to the clay model making room of the design department.

"The appearance of this car is very similar to our current BJ212, and the relationship between them can be seen at a glance."

“But the overall feeling seems to be a lot of improvement, as if it has been reborn.”

“I think there is absolutely nothing wrong with this appearance.”

As soon as Zheng Haiming saw the clay model, his eyes immediately lit up.

Everyone has sharp eyes and can basically tell whether a car’s appearance is good-looking or not at a glance.

In later times, this design might just be an ordinary thing.

But for Huaxia in 1978, it was definitely a perfect product, fully integrating the classic elements of the old era with the changes of the new era. Even though Zheng Haiming was not a particularly professional automotive technician, he could still feel its goodness.

"Director, our project team will further produce a 1:1 real car model based on this model."

"I plan to invite leaders from the First Ministry of Machine Building and related departments to visit us, so that everyone knows that we are steadily advancing the BJ212 upgrade project and implementing the instructions of the higher authorities without compromise."

Although he knew that Zheng Haiming would definitely be satisfied with this plan, he had never seen it before. Now Chen Qi felt more confident.

The Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant has been the subject of complaints from many departments in recent years, and now it can finally vent its anger.

By then, the new generation BJ212 may even be able to generate foreign exchange for China through exports, constantly refreshing everyone's cognition.

“How long does it take to make a 1:1 model?”

Zheng Haiming would definitely not object to inviting superiors to visit.

But he wasn't sure when would be the right time to invite her.

If the waiting time is too long, you don’t have to wait, you can come and visit the 1:5 clay model first.

"If it's fast, it will be done in a month. If it's slow, it won't be too slow."

"After all, our design has basically been finalized, and we just need to make it."

"But Xiao Jiang will have to work hard during this period."

Chen Qi motioned Jiang Hui to come to his side, introduced him to Zheng Haiming, and let Zheng Haiming know that Jiang Hui was the biggest contributor to this matter.

"Xiao Jiang, you will have to work hard for the next month. If there is anything that needs to be coordinated within the factory, please feel free to bring it up."

Zheng Haiming originally did not have particularly high expectations for the BJ212 upgrade project team. After all, he was familiar with the level of the people in the design and technical departments of the factory.

Unexpectedly, various related good news have emerged one after another during this period, which has constantly refreshed his cognition.

Now even the impactful appearance sketch and 1:5 clay model have been produced.

It seems that the BJ212 upgrade project has a good chance of success.

Under such circumstances, his attitude naturally began to change.

"Thank you, Director, Chief Engineer Chen, Director Lu, and Director Liang. They have helped us solve all the difficulties."

"Next, I will just follow Professor Zhu and roll up my sleeves and work hard."

Please make an appointment with Zheng Haiming today and let us know if you have any needs in the future.

"This cooperation between our factory and Capital Polytechnic Institute will be regarded as a successful model in the ministry in the future."

"Professor Zhu, I'm sorry to bother you with the project."

Jiang Hui took the initiative to mention Zhu Jianhui, so Zheng Haiming naturally couldn't pretend not to see it.

So he turned around and chatted with Zhu Jiansheng next to him.

"Our school was best at armored vehicles and tanks before, and we had relatively few achievements in passenger vehicles."

"This time, we can work with Capital Automobile Manufacturing to implement our scientific research results into products, which is a win-win situation."

Although Zhu Jiansheng held the titles of deputy chief engineer and deputy director of the project team office in the factory, he was definitely representing the Capital Institute of Technology at this time.

As one of the seven national defense institutions, Capital Institute of Technology is a vice-ministerial school, half a level higher than the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant.

Zhu Jiansheng naturally couldn't lose face for the school.
