The car giant started by marrying the daughter of the king

Chapter 76: Is this considered the founding of a new school?
Whether a lecture is good or not can often be felt by everyone within ten minutes of the speaker taking the stage.

Although the training of the First Ministry of Machine Building lasted for a week, Jiang Hui was in charge of explaining the entire process.

In fact, everyone can feel his level from the very beginning.

Apart from anything else, the fact that he can sort out the process of developing new models so systematically makes him fully qualified to be a teacher to everyone here.

“During the engineering design phase, we need to carry out detailed design based on the general layout sketch and styling design, and accurately determine the size and position of each component.”

“Then determine the detailed structure, characteristic parameters and quality requirements of each component.”

"Each assembly must be distributed to relevant departments or supporting factories for design and development, including layout drawings of the engine compartment, chassis, interior, exterior, and automotive electrical appliances..."

Jiang Hui spoke for an hour and a half before he stopped to let everyone take a break.

This one and a half hour completely made everyone who participated in the training recognize his abilities.

After all, they are all professional technicians in the automotive industry and are very clear about the value of what Jiang Hui said.

Just looking at how they were quickly recording what Jiang Hui said, is enough to explain a lot of things.

"Lianluo Jiang, how about you take everyone to visit the clay model of the new BJ212 in the next class, and then introduce the car design to everyone based on the clay model?"

Yu Jiang and Jiang Hui also know each other.

During the break, I would naturally come up and say a few words to him.

Others either went to the toilet or took the time to drink some water.

Of course, there were also some people who saw Yu Jiang and Jiang Hui chatting and immediately came over.

“The pictures of the clay models in the newspapers looked a bit blurry. Seeing them directly on site would definitely be better.”

Wang Le, director of FAW's design department, naturally echoed his leader's proposal.

Some other students were also very excited after hearing this.

Now that you have come to the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant, it would be a shame if you didn't visit the 1:1 clay model that was featured in the People's Daily and received such high praise.

Among all the domestic OEMs, this is the only place where you can see ready-made 1:1 clay models.

"No problem. We had originally planned to visit the clay models tomorrow afternoon. Since everyone is so interested, we can move it forward to this morning."

Jiang Hui is the one who explains the training for the whole week anyway, so it doesn’t matter if the specific order is adjusted.

The ten-minute break between classes passed quickly. After resuming the training, Jiang Hui briefly explained the next arrangements and then took everyone to visit the clay model room.

"Lianluo Jiang, I heard that it only took you one month to make this 1:1 clay model?"

As the deputy chief engineer of FAW, Yu Jiang has also been exposed to some aspects of clay model making.

As the first automobile factory in China, FAW has previously exchanged views with experts from Polar Bear on automobile design.

However, there are still many differences between the information we learned in the past and what Jiang Hui said today.

Simply put, what we understood in the past was not as systematic as it is today, nor as simple and clear.

Now Jiang Hui directly uses the real clay model to introduce some things about the new BJ212 and related knowledge points, which makes it much easier for everyone to accept.

"Almost. Strictly speaking, it took about twenty days."

Jiang Hui stated a fact very calmly.

Since the clay model of the new BJ212 is destined to become an important part of the development history of China's automobile industry, it is natural to make this part appear more impressive.

Anyway, I am not bragging. "I have heard from polar bear experts that it usually takes them three to five months to design a clay model of a car."

"Why is the Capital Automobile Factory so fast?"

Yu Jiang continued to ask.

There wasn't much malice in what he said; it was just that he was genuinely confused.

“It is definitely more time-consuming to design a clay model of a new car from scratch.”

"Because many of the appearance features are fine-tuned during the process of making the clay model, it is not simply a matter of making the clay model directly."

Jiang Hui explained it to everyone patiently.

This is the first time that we have launched training for the course "Automobile Design". If the results are good, we can consider compiling it into a textbook for publication in the future.

Of course, Jiang Hui couldn't bring this up on his own; it had to be brought up by the Ministry of Machine Building or other colleagues.

Although the current standard of royalties is not very high, being able to publish a few professional books can not only earn royalties, but also enhance one's influence in the industry.

This is definitely something worth doing well.

If Jiang Hui wants to develop his own automobile empire in the future, he will definitely need to absorb various talents in the industry.

Otherwise, if you just fight alone, you will definitely not succeed in anything.

However, if you want to attract outstanding talents to join your company, a key point is to look at Jiang Hui's personal charm and influence in the industry.

There is still a lot of room for improvement here.

"Jiang Lianluo, this exterior design is quite different from the current style. Why did you come up with this design?"

At Second Automobile Works, Han Hao also took the initiative to ask questions.

This time he brought four colleagues from the design department with him, which showed that he attached great importance to it and hoped to learn some real skills.

Whenever you come across something you don’t understand, just ask directly.

"It's hard to describe something like a car's exterior design style in a few simple words."

"But the outside world is moving in a more beautiful direction, and this general trend is definitely not wrong."

"Of course, the appearance design must also be combined with various technologies such as current mold processing technology."

"If a car is designed very well in every aspect, but the supporting factory cannot produce the relevant parts, then it is meaningless."

Jiang Hui knew that many people would have questions about why the new BJ212 was designed like this.

What is the logic behind this?
It is definitely a bit difficult to give a very standard answer to these questions.

But if you just want to exchange some ideas and creativity, then there is definitely no problem.

Jiang Hui can talk to you for a whole day and discuss some design elements that were popular in different eras in later generations.

"That's true. There are many factors to consider when designing a car."

“To a large extent, the design has already determined the future of this product.”

Han Hao said this with deep feeling.

Soon, others also rushed to ask their own questions.
