Chapter 1376 I Really Can’t Learn This
Li Ye was not surprised why Ma Zhaoxian did not believe in him. He thought that others would copy and imitate the "Akina Mountain God Car" he designed after taking one look at it. After all, Li Ye had forbidden outsiders from entering the R&D workshop these days, and Ma Zhaoxian had never been in.
The reason why Ma Zhaoxian confirmed with Li Ye was to be prepared when the other party came to visit tomorrow. After all, the other party was a leader above, and if he insisted on seeing the new project of a branch factory, it would be a bit troublesome to refuse.
But now Li Ye refused, so Ma Zhaoxian was of course very surprised.
Li Ye explained softly, "Uncle Ma, I actually know that in mainland China, so-called appearance patents are useless. So the reason I submitted the design patent was not to guard against internal thieves, but to guard against those overseas car manufacturers."
“Hiss~~”
Ma Zhaoxian couldn't help but take a breath, and his eyes were full of doubts when he looked at Li Ye.
For so many years, mainland automobile companies have been following behind overseas automobile companies and picking up garbage. They treat technology that is ten years behind as treasures, and are generally more than one generation behind.
Even the Beijing-brand commercial vans produced by a branch copied the appearance of Mitsubishi vans and imported Mitsubishi's chassis technology, barely managing to achieve the "national and ministerial excellence" certification.
As a result, Li Ye is now afraid that overseas manufacturers will copy the design of one of the branches, and this design comes from Li Ye, an "outsider".
Li Ye studied economics! Although he had been managing technology at a branch factory, looking at the way Wu Yan and his colleagues acted in front of him proved that Li Ye was not a professional.
But Li Ye never brags!
Ma Zhaoxian suddenly shuddered, and the confusion in his eyes turned into shock.
If a branch factory produces a product that even overseas car companies need to copy, how much benefit will I get as the head of the light automobile company?
What a huge benefit!
Ma Zhaoxian immediately became serious: "Li Ye, tell me, what is so advanced about your product?"
Li Ye sighed and said helplessly, "Uncle Ma, this product isn't 'advanced'. It's just that our mainland car manufacturers are too lame. Even if we give them the blueprints, they don't have the right engine, so apart from the appearance, they can't copy it at all."
Ma Zhaoxian suddenly realized and murmured: "No wonder you have been so persistent in developing our own engine."
Nowadays, the engines produced in mainland China are too large to fit into the semi-convex engine compartment of the "magic car". The engines of foreign companies will not be installed on cars other than their own models.
That's why Li Ye spent two years traveling to Europa and Lighthouse to seek help, determined to come up with his own engine.
This is just like making a gun. Any good gun must first have bullets before the gun can be made based on the bullets. Only an amateur will make the gun first and then match the appropriate ammunition!
How can you build a car if you don’t even have a suitable engine?
"Don't let them see it. Don't let them see our new car."
Ma Zhaoxian has become fanatical.
He said earlier that his "small car company" had no reputation in the mainland automobile industry, but now he has the unique trump card of Scorpion Baba. Will his future and reputation be lacking in the future?
. . . . . . . . .
On Thursday, May 14, a simple banner was hung at the entrance of the first branch factory - warmly welcoming senior leaders and friends from the southwest to visit.
This simple reception model has been a routine in the past two years at a branch factory. However, when the people from Southwest Heavy Truck arrived, they started to complain before they even got off the car.
"Look, look, they don't really welcome us. They just hung a banner and put us behind the higher-ups."
"Well, it's just a guest from the southwest, and he didn't even write his unit. This receptionist is really incompetent."
"Are you guys content? Judging from the situation, it's a good thing they didn't kick us out."
“.”
As the general manager of Southwest Heavy Truck, Shang Bin also heard the mutterings of his subordinates, but he was not angry at all. After getting off the car, the smile on his face became more sincere.
He first waited for Director Yao from the department to finish shaking hands with Ma Zhaoxian and others before he shook Ma Zhaoxian's hand affectionately.
"Hey, General Manager Ma, I've wanted to visit you for a long time, but I heard you're very busy with work. I've waited until now and have to come and bother you."
Ma Zhaoxian also forced a genial smile: "Hey, Mr. Shang, what are you talking about? No matter how busy we are, we still have to prioritize, right? You, Southwest Heavy Truck, are the veterans of the heavy truck industry. We welcome you to come and guide us, hehe~"
Shang Bin waved his arms and said happily, "It's not really guidance, we learn from each other and make progress together, hehe."
Li Ye stood aside, watching the two people talking intimately, and could hardly suppress the smile on his face.
He still has so much to learn, and it's impossible to learn hypocrisy and shamelessness in a short time.
Southwest Heavy Truck has a brilliant record of producing hundreds of units in the past 20 years. If we let them come to give us guidance, one of our factories will suffer losses in the next two years and go bankrupt in the next three years!
Even so, he's still being modest!
But before Li Ye could fully appreciate the learning experience, Shang Bin came towards him affectionately.
He held Li Ye's hand with his broad hands and said sincerely, "This is Deputy Director Li, right? I have heard of your great name for a long time.
Everyone told me that if Deputy Director Li hadn't personally gone to Su'e and negotiated for this Kamaz technology, it would have been impossible to introduce it.
You are not yet thirty years old this year, are you? Young and promising, really young and promising! "
“Hehehe~”
Li Ye tried his best to smile more naturally, but he was cursing in his heart.
Shang Bin was telling the truth. Without Li Ye, this KAMAZ technology would not have been introduced.
But Chen Xiaoer and Zhu Laomao both said in crosstalk that no matter how capable you are, the credit does not belong to you. You are praising a small soldier like me to the sky in front of so many leaders. Do you want to kill me?
Moreover, Shang Bin pointed out Li Ye’s biggest shortcoming in a subtle way - he was too young.
Li Ye is 29 years old this year. He was already at the deputy division level more than a year ago. In addition to his contributions to Su E this year, he is sure to be promoted to division level this year.
Reaching this position at the age of 30 is considered a smooth career in the eyes of others, but what does it mean in the eyes of those old guys?
You are young and inexperienced. If you want to take on big responsibilities, do you need a few more years of training?
Even a "true immortal" like Pan Xiaoying started working before the age of 20. She first went to Factory 501 and eventually had to be promoted to a deputy position, waiting for the opportunity to move forward.
But that opportunity is not so easy to grab.
But look at Shang Bin, he is forty years old, in his prime, and has both rank and experience. Compared with Li Ye, isn't he more suitable?
Li Ye lowered his head and smiled modestly.
What Teacher Ke said makes a lot of sense. You have to have something that cannot be replaced by others so that others can recognize your strengths. Otherwise, they will point out your weaknesses every day.
. . . . . . . . . . .
The group arrived at the R&D workshop of a branch factory and saw piles of sealed KAMAZ test projects.
Director Yao's face darkened, and he asked indifferently, "Is this the project you've been actively pursuing? The country spent so much money to bring it here, and you're just going to leave it here to rust?"
Li Ye was about to speak when Ma Zhaoxian stepped forward and said with a smile: "It is such a leader, because when we were doing research before, we had the assistance of Su E's technical team.
But now they have suddenly withdrawn, so we need some time to reorganize the information. Once we have done so, we will start the research immediately."
Director Yao turned his head slightly and looked at Niu Hongzhang coldly.
The news that Niu Hongzhang reported to his superiors was that a branch factory had launched a new project, but now people say that Su E had withdrawn the experts.
Shang Bin smiled and interrupted Li Ye, asking, "Why did the Su'e technicians withdraw? Didn't I hear that they were all homeless and only had a place to stay because you took them in?"
Li Ye said calmly, "Because we can't pay salaries. A technician at Sue earns at least $1,000 a month, and the most is between $2,000 and $3,000. We don't have that much foreign exchange."
Shang Bin was surprised and asked, "Why is it so high? I heard that in Su'e, a piece of pork can be exchanged for an excellent engineer working hard for them. Why do you pay them such a high salary?"
“That’s in Sue.”
Li Ye said calmly, "Now the Lighthouse people have also started to snatch people. We pay them at least $3,000 a month. We give them $1,000, which is already a price of affection between class brothers."
“.”
Shang Bin was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed.
"Family price, hahahaha, you're right, isn't it the family price between us brothers?"
Even though Li Ye was well prepared, he couldn't help but turn his face away and not look at Shang Bin's expression, because Shang Bin obviously meant to call the First Branch Factory a "class brother", so did the First Branch Factory want to play the game of family price with him?
[MD, I really can't learn this. How can you be so shameless! ]
