Chapter 2413 Car Race Begins



Although Wan Shouwu repeatedly asked him to stay at his house for lunch, Wan Feng still insisted on leaving.

There were five or six of them in his group, and they were having dinner at someone else's house. They were probably busy for several hours.

After leaving Wan Shouwu's house and having lunch at a restaurant outside, Wan Feng took a walk around the ideal place in the afternoon.

He had only been to this place once, but now he couldn't find it. If he didn't have a mouth under his nose, he would have spilled the soup.

The person in charge of Ideal is a man named Zhang Yonghua, who was recommended by Wan Shouwu and named after the group. He used to be the technical chief of the state-owned Factory 749 and had been to Nanwan.

After Wan Shouwu recommended him, Wan Feng poached him from Factory 749 to serve as the ideal leader.

Ideal's main market in recent years has been procurement by government departments, which is a perfect inheritance of Ideal's business in the previous life.

However, unlike the previous life where Ideal used shoddy configuration to fool the government, the current Ideal computers are genuine.

High configuration means high price, low configuration means low price. There is no such thing as low configuration and high price, and there is no interest transfer.

Over the years, Zhang Yonghua has worked diligently in this position and has managed his ideals in an orderly manner.

Zhang Yonghua accompanied Wan Feng to visit Ideal's headquarters and factory, and reported in detail Ideal's revenue situation this year.

Wan Feng stayed in the Ideal Park for more than an hour. After understanding the situation of Ideal, he went to Jingdongfang.

Jingdongfang is now a completely different company. Two years ago, Jingdongfang stopped producing traditional CRT picture tubes and instead switched to the production of liquid crystal displays.

In its previous life, Jingdongfang only started construction of its fifth-generation TFT-LCD production line in the Beijing Yizhuang Development Zone this year, and did not supply products to the market until 2005.

The 17-inch LCD screens produced by SJM Oriental's 5th generation production line have been supplied to the market on a large scale since the beginning of the year.

Compared with the previous life when LCD TVs did not appear in China until 2003, this time the process has been advanced to 2000.

Although it has not yet replaced CRT tube televisions on a large scale, it has begun to enter the market in a small range.

Because the fifth-generation TFT-LCD production line was delivered to the market two years ahead of schedule, Jingdongfang successfully avoided the LCD cycle in 2005.

Globally, when LCD panels are in short supply, prices rise, prompting new investment and new players to enter the LCD industry.

When production capacity expands to the point of excess, prices drop, attracting more industrial products that require displays to start using cheaper LCD panels. The application range of LCDs expands, leading to insufficient production capacity. This in turn leads to rising prices, attracting new players and new investment.

This market operates in a cycle that repeats itself over and over again. It is called the LCD cycle and it runs every few years.

In its previous life, Jingdongfang started building its fifth-generation TFT-LCD production line in 2003, and the LCD cycle began in the second half of 2004, which lasted until 2006.

It happened that Jingdongfang's 5th generation TFT-LCD production line started to produce products. As a result, Jingdongfang suffered losses of nearly 3.5 billion yuan in 2005 and 2006, which alarmed the China Securities Regulatory Commission. They suspected that Jingdongfang had adjusted its profits internally, causing price fluctuations, but after three years of investigation, they found nothing.

In this life, because of Huaguang's strong support from the very beginning, every step of Jingdongfang was a little faster and earlier than the previous life. This allowed it to successfully avoid the 2005 LCD cycle because the production line was put into production two years earlier, minimizing the company's losses in the LCD downturn.

Huaguang and Jingdongfang have a close strategic cooperation. The LCD screens of Huaguang and Ideal computer monitors, Huaguang mobile phones, and the LED headlights that are just beginning to be used in automobiles are all products of Jingdongfang.

Because it was getting late, Wang Dongsheng hosted a banquet for Wan Feng and his group in a decent-sized restaurant outside Jingdongfang Enterprise.

During the dinner, Wang Dongsheng expressed his gratitude to Nanwan Group for its strong support to Jingdongfang over the years, and gave his blessing to Wan Feng for leading the team to participate in the team competition.

After the banquet, Wan Feng returned to Panfeng Hotel.

In the next few days, the team will mainly participate in the organizer's early activities.

Driver No. 13 reported for duty, and driver No. 14 trained and visited the Pioneer Racing Circuit.

August 15th is the busiest day for drivers and teams.

The administrative inspection starts at 9:00 in the morning and the vehicle inspection begins at 9:30.

Each group of ten vehicles was inspected for half an hour, and the vehicle inspection lasted until 2:30 p.m.

At 3 pm, all drivers will hold a meeting to announce the starting qualification list.

After the list was announced, the cars gathered at 4:30 for the ceremonial start, followed by a car formation parade in Pinggu District.

The preliminaries registration time will be announced at 5:30 p.m.

The day's activities are considered complete.

During these two days, Wan Feng stayed with the convoy except for the one time when Luan Feng and her friends went to climb the Great Wall.

Seventeen track obstacles were specially built at the venue for this competition.

The participating vehicles must cross these obstacles in sequence.

The obstacles are in the following order: U-shaped pit, narrow road, seesaw, slope, left and right pit, Z-shaped wood, shell crater, single-sided bridge, continuous high slope, natural road, waterway around the island, slalom, sand pit, high slope, flying car, shallow water road and gravel road.

After all these matters were completed, the official competition finally kicked off on August 16th.

Today's competition is the preliminary round, through which the top players in each group will be selected to enter tomorrow's finals.

All participating vehicles are four-wheel drive off-road vehicles with no more than seven seats. The competition is single-vehicle and the results are evaluated based on the time it takes for the participating vehicles to pass the specified track. The winner is the one with the shortest time.

The competition venue is located in the Beijing Pioneer Auto Off-Road Sports Field in the Jingdong Grand Canyon, which is surrounded by peach trees on three sides, and its appearance resembles a fairy peach.

The competition starts at nine in the morning on the 16th and ends at eleven.

Although the sport of racing has a short history in China, there are many people who enjoy cars and race teams, especially in Jingguang, where the mass base is the broadest.

However, there were not many teams registered to participate in the first national off-road vehicle race in Beijing because there were many competitions held in Dongguan at the same time.

In this race, there were many local teams from Beijing, with more than ten teams of all sizes.

Among them, the Beijing Off-Road Team is recognized as the strongest.

The Beijing Off-Road Team cooperates with Goodyear Tires. The team has a strong background and its drivers include Wang Zhiguang, Xing Baoqiang, Zheng Xu, Wang Yang and other drivers who are relatively famous in the racing circle.

According to expert analysis, the competitions of Group A and Group B, Group A Club and Group B Club, as well as the Manufacturer Cup and Women's Cup are likely to be won by the off-road team.

The off-roaders also announced that the goal of this off-road team is to achieve the Grand Slam.

This made Wan Feng very unhappy.
