But thinking about it, what if I resell it to Luzhong Petrochemical? Wouldn't they give me a bribe?
Okay, let's not rip people off. I just built a gas station for myself, and now I'm introducing a gas guzzler to others. Isn't that just asking to be hated?
After the FAW representatives left, the city government representatives who came along took the opportunity to say to Xing Baohua, "This is a good car! The windows are even bulletproof."
Actually, this car is not only bulletproof, but also explosion-proof.
Xing Baohua was distressed; 20 liters of fuel wouldn't be enough, at least 25 liters would be needed.
From then on, this car became Xing Baohua's personal vehicle.
Look at the interior, it's hideous.
The seats are all in rows.
For such a high-end car, you should at least get some genuine leather or something. What's the point of just using a cloth cover?
Xing Baohua instructed his secretary to go to Dazhou Village to invite a craftsman from the Fengyang Sofa Factory to come over, as he wanted to modify the interior.
Not only Hongqi will be changed, but Cadillac will also be changed.
Have the drivers from the convoy come over and participate in the modification plan.
These drivers all have one additional attribute: they can all repair cars.
One person can fix a car with minor problems. Two people can disassemble a car, three people can disassemble it and reassemble it, and four people can build a car.
You tell me, drivers these days are so awesome!
Entertainment system, comfortable seats. After that, there weren't many changes.
A driver told Xing Baohua that although this car was the same as the CA770, it was a different model called CA72.
What's even more frustrating is that this car doesn't have an air conditioning system.
Good heavens, such thick glass, and the car body is made of steel plates, not sheet metal! This thing is completely airtight; it's practically trying to suffocate people.
Let the drivers come up with a solution to change it.
The other Cadillac has air conditioning; let's take that car apart and study it. Then we'll install the air conditioning system on it.
The secretary invited several experienced craftsmen from a sofa factory. Xing Baohua's requirements for them were: use the finest genuine leather, whether lambskin or cowhide; it had to be comfortable; and it had to include a headrest.
Each seat must be individual and can be moved back and forth to adjust comfort.
If you don't know the organization, bring over a Volkswagen Santana for their reference.
The Hongqi has a spacious back seat with two rows, plus the driver's and front passenger's seats, making a total of three rows of seats.
Xing Baohua suggested removing one row of seats and converting it into two rows. It's even possible to fold down the seats and lie down to rest.
Folding down the back seats creates a larger double bed, but for some reason, Xing Baohua wanted to reinforce the shock absorption system.
Fengyang Sofa Factory has landed a big job.
The task of modifying the seats of two luxury cars.
The tape recorder team also joined in the fun; they were the only ones who could fix the player.
It has a 12V power supply, a separate amplifier, and includes a radio and cassette tape player. Actually, Xing Baohua also wanted to add a CD player.
The technical team stopped them; the center console wouldn't fit unless it was installed in the back.
When someone suggested adding things to the back, they said that such a large space couldn't just be used for installing seats!
How about adding a small refrigerator?
This involves installing an inverter, and I don't even know if the car's alternator and battery can handle it. Fuel consumption is already high, and with all this other stuff, it'll be at least 30 liters per 100 kilometers.
This isn't a luxury sedan; it should be called an armored vehicle.
A group of drivers started studying the two cars. They usually had nothing to do, so now they could finally tinker with them.
A week later, Xing Baohua received more than one hundred MC68K chips from Motorola.
Xing Baohua immediately ordered Changhong to produce 10-inch LCD screens.
We're willing to spend any amount of money to cut out a 10-inch TFT display.
We immediately formed a team to develop a laptop.
Xing Baohua wanted to replicate a Toshiba rugged laptop.
The aluminum alloy exterior, metal keyboard, and a small red dot in the middle for the mouse cursor are reminiscent of IBM's iconic red dot. This led IBM to later switch to a scroll ball.
In Xing Baohua's design concept, this laptop uses a lithium battery as a rechargeable battery.
It is drop-proof, dustproof, and waterproof, allowing you to work in any location around the clock, even underwater, where it can withstand water penetration for three minutes.
The exaggerated claims are true, but as for the three-proof features, they only prevent dust.
If you leave it for too long, it will just gather dust.
Xing Baohua only needs to ensure it doesn't break when dropped. Occasionally, it might dent or get a dent, which is normal. It's not covered under warranty, since dropping it is a human-caused event, not a hardware damage issue.
Waterproof? That's a joke.
If you're lucky, the rubber pads can keep water out of the machine for a few minutes. But if you get substandard rubber pads, well, water damage is not covered under warranty and is considered user-caused damage.
Why would it fall into the water for no reason? This is not a problem with the device's hardware.
They should make full use of that shameless warranty system in the later stages.
The chief designer, accompanied by two assistants, began designing the exterior according to Xing Baohua's instructions.
Xing Baohua and his small team began to divide the work and manufacture the motherboard.
Everyone has their own responsibilities, and the division of labor is clear.
To create a truly classic laptop, you can't just make do. Now that we have money, we don't care about those cheap, cobbled-together versions.
The arrival of industrial robots has greatly increased the density of integrated circuits.
Unfortunately, the electrical components are still the same size, with no improvement. The integration technology is far inferior to that of the Japanese.
While we were still using color-coded resistors, others had already started using crystal resistors and capacitors.
But it's alright, Xing Baohua never intended to make it ultra-thin anyway.
It has the same weight and thickness as a desktop computer and the same performance.
Besides being able to accommodate one floppy drive, we should add several other ports.
In terms of interfaces, Xing Baohua did not use terminal blocks, but instead tried using two USB interfaces, and even extended it to a 3.5mm audio recording interface.
