On April 24, Nanwan Group's pickup trucks began trial production.
A week passed from the completion of the production line installation to the start of trial production today.
This week, Yimeng and his team were running around the production line like ants on a hot pan, fearing that something might go wrong during the official production.
This was the first car he had come up with, and he knew clearly that the group had invested a lot of money in this car.
The research and development expenses alone cost hundreds of thousands.
If Wan Feng knew that Yi Meng was worried about those hundreds of thousands of dollars, he would definitely laugh for a long time.
Is an investment of hundreds of thousands of dollars really called an investment?
Finally, the day came on the 24th. When she walked into the workshop in the morning, Yimeng felt her legs trembling, the kind of trembling that she couldn't control.
When Wan Feng walked into the workshop, he saw a man standing at the head of the production line with a wrench in his hand, looking at a loss.
Wan Feng walked over and patted Yi Meng on the shoulder: "Don't be nervous! What's my famous saying?"
Yimeng still held the wrench tightly in both hands, and for a long time she couldn't remember what Wan Feng's famous saying was.
"Put the wrench down and take a deep breath! When you breathe, breathe from your belly, letting the air reach the bottom of your stomach. Do five breaths in a row. How's that? Does it feel easier?"
Yimeng nodded.
"Can you remember my famous quote now?"
"If I don't do it right, I won't be able to break it!"
"That's right! Just do it with this idea in mind."
Don’t mention it, as soon as I had this thought in my mind, my legs stopped shaking, my heart stopped panicking, and my nerves relaxed.
At 7:30, Yimeng and his team checked the production line for the last time and then switched on the switch to resume work.
Starting from the stamping of the first steel plate, the production line starts to operate, and each process is carried out in an orderly manner.
Wan Feng walked from the beginning to the end of the production line. It seemed that the production of the first car was very slow. It took about half an hour for the vehicles on the production line to start installing engines.
“When will the first car roll off the production line?”
Yimeng checked her watch. "It'll take a long time for the first car to roll off the assembly line, more than three hours. It'll probably be noon the day after it rolls off the assembly line. But after the first car rolls off the assembly line, the rest of the cars will be quicker, coming down one after another."
Of course Wan Feng understands this.
After such a long time, Wan Feng felt that he could go out for a walk and come back when the car was about to be offline at noon.
After leaving the factory, Wan Feng walked into the garment factory.
Garment factories began to implement direct sales stores last year, and now there are more than 2,600 of them, almost covering the entire eastern part of China.
Without middlemen, clothes can go directly from the factory to the store, which benefits both manufacturers and merchants.
Even with a slight price reduction on goods, the store's profits are actually higher.
Coupled with the investment of several million yuan in advertising fees, the sales of the Fire Phoenix and Tornado series of clothing increased exponentially.
Wan Feng came to the garment factory to inquire about the situation of the direct sales store. He had to ask the sales department about this situation, so Wan Feng sat in the sales department of the garment factory for half an hour.
The next provinces to be covered by the garment factory are the southwest, mainly Sichuan Province, which is the top priority. The other remote provinces are not so urgent.
After leaving the sales department, Wan Feng went to Luan Feng's office and chatted with her for another half an hour.
From the outside, there was nothing wrong with Luan Feng. She talked and laughed very freely, and she knew when to glare and when to pinch.
This made Wan Feng feel even more uneasy. Feeling guilty, he didn't dare to stay here for too long, fearing that Luan Feng would suddenly attack him and expose his true identity. So he made an excuse to visit his uncle's factory and left.
Wan Shuiming's small factory recruited more than a dozen people from technical schools last year, and now the number of employees has reached more than 130. It is no longer the smallest enterprise in Jiangwei.
There are still many companies in Nandawan and Dongshan with less than a hundred employees.
The small factory still produces the two things that Wan Feng asked him to make, turn signals and reflectors.
There is no change at all.
However, these two things are no longer the simple products that were originally used to match motorcycles.
Now that automotive accessories have been added, the grade and craftsmanship requirements are no longer comparable. Even if it is still a resistant product, there has been a significant improvement.
Wanshui invested more than 500,000 yuan before the beginning of next year to buy new equipment and molds, and has already started producing these two products for the cars that Nanwan Group is about to put into production.
In previous years, the profit of his small factory has always been between 300,000 and 500,000 yuan. This year, with the addition of new motorcycle and automobile products, the profit of his small factory is expected to exceed 1 million yuan for the first time.
Wan Shuiming is very satisfied with his current life. Although Wan Feng once asked him to add other projects, he refused.
He had no plans to do anything else in his life and was only going to do these two things.
As long as a person keeps his feet on the ground, even a very inconspicuous business can achieve amazing feats.
There is a very unknown company in Japan called YKK, which specializes in making zippers.
It was just such an inconspicuous little gadget, but at its peak it achieved an annual revenue of 50 billion Chinese yuan.
In Japan, YKK is on par with Toyota and represents Japan's developed manufacturing industry.
Therefore, Wan Feng supported his uncle in identifying these two things.
Wan Feng and Wan Shuiming squatted in the corner, using a branch to draw various reflectors and fancy turn signals for cars and trucks on the ground. They then explained the characteristics, materials, and production methods of these lights and reflectors.
Of course, some of the products here cannot be produced by Wan Shuiming’s small factory now, but Wan Feng’s car does not need high-end things now.
Even if it was not necessary, Wan Feng helped his uncle plan the development of his small factory.
The uncle and nephew talked for more than an hour.
Before leaving, Wan Feng chatted with his grandmother and aunt for a few more words.
Grandma naturally asked about Wan Feng's marriage again.
Wan Feng told his grandmother with certainty that she would have a granddaughter-in-law next year.
It was almost eleven o'clock when Wan Feng returned to the Nanwan factory. As soon as Wan Feng walked to the door of the pickup truck workshop, he heard a burst of cheers in the workshop.
“It worked! It worked!”
Upon hearing this, Wan Feng hurried into the workshop. At the end of the production line in the second workshop, a complete vehicle had just landed.
This pickup truck, which just rolled off the production line, doesn't look much different from the original test vehicle and is parked there quietly like a baby.
Although it has rolled off the production line, the entire vehicle still needs to be tested on the test bench until it is confirmed that it is qualified.
The anxious young people were already jumping and dancing around the pickup truck.
Wan Feng stood quietly at the junction of the two workshops, looking at the cheering young people with a smile on his face.
A few minutes later, the pickup was taken to the vehicle inspection line and began testing.
Everyone stared at the testing equipment nervously.
The engine is running normally;
The transmission is working properly;
The transmission system is normal;
…
Half an hour later, Yimeng shouted, "Everything is normal!"
"Yeah!" Cheers rang out in the workshop.
