Chapter 965: The Historical Tradition of Dora's Run (Four Watches, Four Shifts)
Of the $4 billion market in the world, your company wants to occupy forty percent?!
The people in the room were all frightened by Lin Hongfei's good appetite, or more accurately, looked at Lin Hongfei's eyes with a look of sympathy: they felt that Lin Hongfei was blowing like an idiot.
It's no problem for you to brag, who hasn't seized the opportunity to blow twice these days? But blowing is your fault, a $4 billion market, your Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. will occupy forty percent? Do you think all the other big companies abroad are there to look good?
Yes, among the people present, they vaguely know what the integral heavy military wheeled off-road transport vehicle is, and they also know how important this thing is to the country's national defense construction, on the other hand, they also know that the technology content of this thing is high, not to mention, the market capacity is not large, and the global market of 4 billion US dollars is enough to explain everything.
On the one hand, they are eager to get the recognition of foreign countries, and want to reshape the glory of their former large enterprises, but on the other hand, they do not have the courage to compete and fight with foreign enterprises. There is no other explanation.
Looking at these frightened people, Lin Hongfei didn't even have a trace of "pity" in his eyes, and they probably wouldn't have thought that in more than ten years, even a country like Belarus would be able to get a piece of the big cake in this market, and the Republic spent more than $1 billion a year on importing such products from Belarus. Forty percent of the market share is nothing, this is not Lin Hongfei's goal at all.

Sigmund. Mia and Primakov completed their task quickly: a civilian semi-trailer heavy-duty truck.
At the beginning of the design, they did not fancy the trailer trucks that are now popular, but focused on the semi-trailers with higher technical content, which have a natural huge advantage over the semi-trailers that can be used as container trucks and converted from container trucks with a wider range of applications.
Lin Hongfei looked at the big guy in front of him, and sighed with emotion: Big nose.
There is no relevant technical standard for semi-trailers in China, and the trucks produced by domestic commercial vehicle companies are still trailer models, which are similar to small trucks, and there is a cargo body behind the cab, and a body can be hung behind the body. There is not a single semi-trailer model that can put a standard container, and occasionally you can see one on the road, which is basically an Isuzu flat-top model imported from Japan...... No way, Isuzu is the cheapest semi-trailer in the international market.
But the big-nosed car in front of me is obviously completely different from the Isuzu semi-trailer, and more can be seen from this guy's body. The demeanor of Bildt heavy truck tractor and Kenworth heavy truck tractor.
"You borrowed from Kenworth and Peterbilt?" Lin Hongfei looked at Sigmund. Mia and Primakov. Asked.
This is actually nonsense, and the iconic big nose of the American heavy-duty tractor is not a joke.
"yes." Speaking of which. "We have done a detailed survey of the use of trucks and the situation of drivers in the republic, and they will stay in the truck for a long time, and even who is in the truck at night in order to save money, so we have done a lot of attention to the comfort of our trucks. Although I myself don't quite like to admit it, it must be said that in terms of comfort, American trucks are indeed much better than Soviet trucks. In addition, we have made targeted improvements to the road conditions and usage habits of the Republic, as well as the relevant commercial vehicle standards......"
As he spoke, he pulled the car door and motioned for Lin Hongfei to go up with him.
Lin Hongfei was also a little curious, he was looking forward to Primakov and Sigmund. Mia was able to design a car that would be so comfortable.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"This is the entertainment system we designed," Primakov said to Lin Hongfei, pointing to a car tape machine on the center console, "centered on the Japanese pioneer four-channel tape player with built-in power amplifier circuit, four high-quality speakers are used, which can allow drivers to enjoy beautiful music during boring long-distance driving, making the long-distance driving process not so boring; β
"That's right," Lin Hongfei nodded, he had already understood the chassis system, engine and transmission system of this car, those were not the places he cared about, what he was more interested in now was whether these visible places could attract people, "What else is there besides this?" β
"And, of course, we have equipped this car with a state-of-the-art air conditioner, you see, here, to ensure that the driver is not affected by the temperature while driving; We also deliberately set up an electric heating system with an output power of 1000 watts, and a matching electric heating kettle is included with the car, and here we also have a place to install a water dispenser, so that drivers can drink hot water in the car, and can also use hot water to make tea...... I know that people in your country love to drink tea, and drivers prefer to put a lot of tea leaves to refresh themselves......"
"And here, we have set up a two-layer sleeper, each layer of 1.2 meters wide and 1.8 meters long, which is enough to ensure that the drivers can get a good relaxation even if they are temporarily resting in the car......
Sigmund. Mia kept smiling and following along, watching Primakov introduce Lin Hongfei with her eyebrows fluttering, she didn't say much, she was the chief designer of this project, even if she didn't say a word, it should be hers or hers, she saw this very clearly.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
When he got out of the car half an hour later, Primakov couldn't help but feel a little complacent, in his opinion, this is definitely a very good, very cost-effective car, the boss should not find anything wrong, but he was disappointed, Lin Hongfei unceremoniously pointed out several inappropriate places:
"The first one, remove the pioneer sound system, see if you can buy a domestic one, drivers don't need such a high-end audio, they only need to be able to listen to the radio occasionally, listen to songs, do you think in the noisy highway, no matter how good the sound can play a big role? Unless we work the sound insulation project, I don't think this sound system will be much better than the ordinary domestic sound system, but after removing this sound system, we can save at least 2,000 yuan for customers; β
"The second, the air conditioner is optional, I admit that the use of air conditioning allows drivers to drive comfortably in the summer, but not every customer is willing to spend an extra amount of money for the air conditioner, we can reserve the location of the pipeline and the installation of the compressor, and we will install it for customers in need; Of course, the warm air tank should be retained, and the warm air system can be used as a basic configuration; β
"The third point, your hot water can exist as a feature of our car, I will let the marketing department focus on this personalized place, because I believe that the increased cost will not exceed 20 yuan, but the water dispenser system is not needed, and it is also dismantled, believe me, as long as you provide them with this function, Chinese drivers will always give you many unexpected surprises......"
Listening patiently to Lin Hongfei say this, Primakov finally couldn't help it, "But boss, this will make our car a lot lower; β
"Primakov, do you think that after installing these things, drivers in our country will think that our products are on the same level as cars imported from Japan, Europe and the United States?" Lin Hongfei shook his head, so he didn't say the sentence "You are too naΓ―ve", "What we have to do now is to enter the market first and be recognized by the market for quality and reliability.
Speaking of this, he stared at Primakov and said word by word, "Mr. Primakov, I understand your eagerness to prove your strength, but believe me, we have to cater to the market, the Chinese people are not rich now, instead of letting them spend their money on these flashy places, it is better to save them more procurement costs, so that their cars can be loaded with more goods...... This is the fourth point I am talking about, the undercarriage of the semi-trailer needs to be strengthened, strengthened to a level where it can be overloaded by at least 3 times. β
The four words "Dora Run" are definitely not nonsense, on the highways of the Republic, you will not find a heavy truck that is not overloaded, overloading has become a long and glorious historical tradition of commercial vehicles in the Republic, Lin Hongfei is very clear, a truck with a design load of 15 tons, if you can't overload to 50 tons, it is doomed to have no future...... No future means no market, and no market means no money, very simple logic.
"Triple times?!" Hearing Lin Hongfei's request, not only Primakov was stupid, but even Sigmund looked at Lin Hongfei with a smile. Mia was also stupid, they couldn't imagine why Lin Hongfei would make such a request.
Sigmund. Mia was okay, he believed that Lin Hongfei must have his own reasons for making this request, but Primakov was different, he was stunned for a moment, and jumped up as if Lin Hongfei had stabbed his ass with an awl, "Three times?!" That's impossible! Boss, you need to know that this will greatly increase the wear and tear of the engine and traditional systems, and the service life of the whole car will be drastically reduced......"
"I know what to say," Lin Hongfei nodded calmly without waiting for Primakov to finish speaking, "I know all this, but do it, otherwise I will do it." (To be continued.) )
