Chapter 35: Cui Zhuren Highly Recommends

~8 min read 1,496 words

Cui Zhuren walked over and looked up at the vehicle's chassis.

Zhang Wen explained it to him one by one.

"This part is the engine, which serves the purpose of generating electricity."

"Then it charges the battery, and the battery uses the electricity to drive the motor."

"This is the energy flow."

"How is it?"

Zhang Wen asked excitedly.

"Not bad. I didn't expect the performance to be so strong."

Cui Zhuren smacked his lips.

"Actually, the performance isn't strong, because the motor isn't good enough."

"I have already found new materials to make the battery, which greatly improved the battery's energy storage and discharge."

Actually, it was a lithium iron phosphate battery.

"It just leaves the motor."

"As long as the motor develops."

"Not only can the automotive industry develop, but other industries can also develop."

Zhang Wen explained in detail to Cui Zhuren.

Cui Zhuren looked at the car and stroked his beard for a long time.

"Where were the parts for this car produced, why not use more mature technology?"

Zhang Wen immediately said: "Most of the parts are manufactured in Three Towns City, and the other parts are manufactured domestically."

"The reason for not using them, although there is a consideration for technological development, is also because the technical route doesn't fit."

"Currently, their engines are all being made in the direction of fuel efficiency and power, adding mechanical supercharging, adding turbocharging. Although it saves a lot of fuel, other capabilities are greatly weakened."

"They are very good, but I don't need them; the engine is for generating electricity, it just needs to have high enough thermal efficiency."

"The transmission is the same, this car of mine only has one gear. It doesn't need one at all."

"Considering the current road conditions in the country, and those few highways."

"0 to 60 only takes 5 seconds, although it's very slow afterwards, it can be maintained at around 80 kilometers."

"The top speed is only 110."

"In my opinion, it is very suitable for domestic use."

Zhang Wen's series of introductions made Cui Zhuren's eyes brighter and brighter.

"Good brat, I understand."

"What about fuel consumption?"

"The current fuel consumption is not low."

Cui Zhuren continued to ask.

"Fuel consumption, if you keep driving in the city, it's eight liters per hundred kilometers."

Zhang Wen pointed to the dashboard and said.

"What?"

"Eight liters?"

Cui Zhuren widened his eyes and said.

"How can it be so fuel-efficient?"

Zhang Wen said proudly: "Naturally, it's because of the battery and the motor. The time when the engine's energy loss is greatest is when it's at low speed."

"At this time, the engine's thermal efficiency hasn't come up, and the speed hasn't come up either, so the energy loss is extremely high."

"But the motor is different, the motor can start and stop at any time."

"The engine only cares about generating electricity, it doesn't care about anything else, so it can always be maintained in the highest range."

Hearing what Zhang Wen said, Cui Zhuren still couldn't quite believe it.

But the facts were already in front of him, and he couldn't help but believe it.

"What is this car called?"

"Qin. First generation."

"Qin Wang sweeping the six states?"

"I understand." Cui Zhuren said. He immediately realized the gold content of this name.

"Alright, you find the mayor of Three Towns City later to come and take a look, let him support it."

"Try to persuade him."

"Alright, I should go, send me four or five new cars later, send them to the address here."

"By the way, send someone who can manage things."

After saying this, Zhang Wen pushed Ding Hui over, and Cui Zhuren didn't stand on ceremony, pulled Ding Hui, got directly into the car, and left. He was still in a hurry to cut in line for Zhang Wen's car.

Zhang Wen smiled calmly.

Subsequently, he called Secretary Gao again.

"Secretary Gao. Does the mayor have time in a few days?"

Secretary Gao received Zhang Wen's call and immediately stood up.

"Alright, let me take a look."

Subsequently, he lowered his head and looked at the mayor's schedule.

It was already full.

But he still held the pen, hesitated for a long time, and crossed out one of the columns.

"Factory Manager Zhang, the mayor has time next Monday afternoon."

"Approximately between three and five o'clock."

"Alright, then I, on behalf of Qingtian Automobile Factory, invite the mayor to come for an inspection."

Zhang Wen said.

"Alright."

Secretary Gao said.

"Also, let's call the person in charge of transportation management in our city together."

Zhang Wen said, pushing his luck a bit.

Unexpectedly, Secretary Gao breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Alright, no problem. What is the main content?"

"Take a look at the new car of Qingtian Automobile Factory."

"And whether the government can purchase a batch of official cars, or taxis."

Zhang Wen said immediately.

Actually, compared to consumers, the first funds earned by car companies come from the support of the local government.

Only then is there a foundation for influence.

However, this is also a double-edged sword.

If the quality of the car is poor.

Then in a few days, the feedback from taxis will spread throughout the city.

If the quality of the car is good.

Then the reputation will slowly form.

After all, so many taxis running all over the streets.

It is also a living advertisement.

Promoting the impression of being sturdy, reliable, durable, and fuel-efficient to everyone.

Jingcheng.

Cui Zhuren waited for a few days.

The car sent by Zhang Wen finally arrived.

Cui Zhuren hurriedly called his classmate.

"Old classmate, you are in charge of the car listing approval, right?"

"Old Cui. Why did you think of calling me?"

"That's right, it's still me, but don't think about me cutting you some slack."

"Hahaha!" Hearing the voice from the other side, Cui Zhuren laughed: "Don't worry, who doesn't know your character."

"I just need to cut in line. Let your people speed up the approval process."

"That's no problem."

"You come to the old place to find me."

Subsequently, the other party hung up the phone.

Cui Zhuren hurriedly directed Ding Hui to pull the flatbed truck to the vehicle approval center.

He also followed along.

Met the other party.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while.

Cui Zhuren introduced:

"This is our domestic car."

"You see if you can speed it up a bit."

The other party said in surprise: "Domestic car?"

"Which car factory?"

"Qingtian Automobile Factory."

"You aren't joking with me, are you?"

"Is there actually still someone willing to make domestic cars now?"

The other party said in surprise.

"Alright, Old Gu, just say whether you'll test it or not!"

Cui Zhuren didn't stand on ceremony with him.

"How many years have we been old classmates, arguing with me."

Old Gu shook his head.

"Sigh, I hope it can at least pass the test."

"Last year, we received applications from ten factories and more than thirty car models."

"As a result, only ten cars passed."

"Do you know what's even more unbearable?"

Old Gu said sadly.

"What?"

Cui Zhuren asked.

"How many months have passed, and how many of their factories have already gone bankrupt."

"Speaking of it, I feel sad, you say, is our policy of exchanging market for technology really the right path?"

"Why is it that our country's automotive industry still can't develop now?"

Old Gu complained to Cui Zhuren.

Anyway, the two were old classmates for many years, and each was a leader, and only at this time could they talk about their inner thoughts.

"It's difficult, but we have to walk it."

Cui Zhuren said.

"If we don't walk it, then no matter how many generations pass, we won't be able to do it."

"Isn't this a good start now?"

Hearing this, Old Gu's expression finally looked better.

"Good brat, you're still the one who can talk."

"Hahaha!" Cui Zhuren laughed loudly: "That goes without saying."

"Qingtian Automobile Factory, let me look at the information."

Old Gu took the information and started reading it seriously.

Only then did he discover that the predecessor of Qingtian Automobile Factory was Factory 723.

Old Gu gasped.

"Factory 723?"

"I remember that factory."

"Last time during the test, their results were..."

Old Gu hesitated for a moment, as if looking for a suitable adjective.

"A pile of garbage."

Cui Zhuren nodded calmly.

"I know. This car is different."

"This car was made by my student!"

Old Gu asked blankly: "Which student?"

"The one who was on TV a few days ago!"

Cui Zhuren said proudly.

"Holy shit, so Zhang Wen is your apprentice!"

"Last time we held a big meeting, saying we need to discover local talent."

"So the root is here!"

Old Gu said in surprise.

Cui Zhuren was very satisfied with his expression.

"And, this is also an electric car!" ===== CHAPTER 36 =====
