Chapter 2187: It’s better to have it yourself than to have it with your parents (Fifth update completed)



The three-cylinder engine production line transferred to Jili is a production line with a capacity of 40,000 engines.

Maybe it’s because the production task is not very heavy, the workers on the production line are not very busy, but they are well organized.

At the end of the production line, Wan Feng saw engines coming off the line one by one at standard time intervals.

"Last year, we got the engine technical drawings and production lines back. It took us about half a year to produce these engines according to the drawings. We didn't have a rest for years." Li Fu sighed.

This is normal.

Although producing this kind of engine in Nanwan seems like a piece of cake, it will take a long time for a new group of people to produce it to standard.

"We are very satisfied with the operation of this engine after it was built. Whether it is horsepower, fuel consumption or even noise emissions, it is very satisfactory."

How fresh! Even if this engine is not of a famous origin, it was tinkered with by the Japanese, and then modified by those monkey-butt idiots in South Bay for several years. It would be strange if it is not good.

Nanwan’s current Wanfeng engine is not exaggerating. It is a bit of a stretch to pass the National III standard, but it is no problem to adapt to the National I and National II emissions.

"Our engines are not as good as you say. Compared with similar foreign products, they are merely acceptable. There is still a small gap."

"Boss Wan! If we need to upgrade our car in the future, will you transfer the technology of a better engine to us?"

"Mr. Li! Let's be honest. When you're initially struggling to build a car, it's understandable to seek external help. For example, we bought this 378 engine from an unknown small Japanese company, but we didn't just sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor. We absorbed its strengths, discarded its weaknesses, and then integrated the technology of other engines. Based on this engine, we've now developed four or five other engines. The reason I'm saying all this is to share a truth: having something your own is worse than having it from your parents. Technology is only real technology when it's in your own hands. You can temporarily learn from others' technology, but you can't rely on it in the long run."

Li Fu nodded. "Boss Wan! I'm really touched by your words today. I understand what you mean. You have to rely on yourself for everything and can't count on others."

"Exactly! I can provide you with subsequent engines, but this is easy while our relationship is good. If things turn sour in the future, I'll revoke your engine rights. Even if your business doesn't collapse, it'll take two to three years to recover."

This is not a matter of if you don't give me the engine, I will just buy someone else's and replace it.

Your car model is already a mature system. Changing the engine requires reintegrating the system of this model. After all, the engines of each manufacturer are different in all aspects.

Not only will you waste time and money, but you may not even be able to successfully integrate it.

In the previous life, the car that Geely made using a Toyota engine and a Fiat gearbox failed due to poor acclimatization and integration.

And you have to be able to buy the engine.

Li Fu nodded frequently.

"How did you guys make that gearbox I gave you?"

"It's still a little behind your original product, but there's no problem with the engine."

"Although that gearbox isn't cutting-edge, it's a perfect match for this engine. They're both well-matched and mature products. As long as you can create a matching chassis, driving the car for 200,000 to 300,000 kilometers won't be a problem."

This engine and gearbox have been tested in Panda cars for more than five years and have perfect meshing.

Wan Feng almost used this combination to build a mini truck with a cargo bed, just like the Black Panther in his previous life.

The engine of the Black Panther car is not good and often breaks down. If it is built in Nanwan, such problems will not occur.

But it was put on hold because of Qingfeng's appearance.

"If I can really reach the standard that Mr. Wan mentioned, I will be satisfied."

It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when they finished visiting the Haoqing Industrial Park. After asking Wan Feng if he was tired from the journey and hearing Wan Feng's negative answer, Li Fu took Wan Feng to see the Taizhou city wall nearby.

Taizhou's city walls border the Ling River to the south and East Lake to the east, with two walls encircling the prefecture diagonally. To the southeast, it leans against Jinzi Mountain, while to the northwest, it rests on Longgu Mountain. The city walls, like a dragon coiling and a tiger crouching, dominate the area.

Also known as the Jiangnan Great Wall and Jiangnan Badaling, it is more than 6,000 meters long, and more than 5,000 meters are still preserved. According to Li Fu, the Taizhou city wall was first built in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and has been demolished, rebuilt and repaired many times in history.

Wan Feng didn't expect that he could see the Great Wall here.

Although it is significantly different from the Badaling Great Wall, you cannot deny that it is also the Great Wall, but it is not as famous as the Badaling Great Wall.

Of course it is impossible to walk the entire length of the Great Wall. After all, it is five kilometers long.

This Great Wall is actually a circular wall. If the lost one thousand meters were repaired, the circle would be complete.

There are seven gates in the Great Wall, namely Lansheng Gate and Chonghe Gate in the east, and Chaotianwangjiang Gate in the west.

What’s strange is that there are three gates in the south: Zhenning, Xingshang and Jingyue Gate, but no gate in the north.

I wonder what gossip the ancients were playing.

Li Fu took Wan Feng to visit the famous Lansheng Gate and East Lake, but did not visit other gates.

Seeing that Wanfeng was in good spirits, Li Fu began to introduce the famous scenic spots in Linhai, such as Longxing Temple, Jiutaigou, Taozhu Scenic Area, Nixi Lake Park, etc., and promised to take Wanfeng for a walk tomorrow.

Tomorrow is June 27th, and Li Fu still has a day off.

Before they knew it, it was getting late. They returned to Linhai and had dinner at a luxurious restaurant. Tired from the journey, the two of them went to the hotel to rest.

At seven o'clock in the morning on the 27th, Li Fu fulfilled his promise and took Wan Feng to see the scenery of the forest.

"Boss Li! Your new car will be rolling off the production line tomorrow. Are you still going to take me for a walk today? If not, you can just arrange for two people to accompany us."

"That won't do. It's against etiquette for me to have my men accompany you on a stroll when you're such an important figure."

Li Fu got into the car without saying anything and took Wan Feng to see the scenic spots and historical sites in Linhai.

There are many temples and Taoist sites in Linhai, such as Longxing Temple, Yan'en Temple, Sanfeng Zen Temple and Magu Mountain Danxia Cave.

However, Wan Feng was not very interested in these religious sites, so he only went to see the famous scenery of Linhai.

Compared with Hongya, which only has two scenic spots, Bingyu Valley and Chengshan Ancient City, Linhai has indeed many scenic spots.

I traveled all day to Jiutai Valley, Jiangnan Grand Canyon, Nixi Lake Park, and Taozhu City, and my legs were sore from walking around.

So, after returning to the hotel and having a quick dinner, Wan Feng fell asleep on the bed.
