After hanging up Su Mang's call, Li Fanyu frowned and considered various projects in the current R&D center in his mind.
The most urgent thing for Zhengxin right now is to get the two Hongqi models as soon as possible. But in fact, the three models of Audi are not something that should be rushed.
Since the Q5, Audi has only experienced one large-scale mid-term facelift including the A468 three models. There have been no new cars for nearly two years.
Now there is such an urgent job as an ambulance, which makes him feel a little headache,
But there are still trade-offs. After Li Fanyu quickly assigned a level to each research and development project in his mind, he decided that the Audi part should maintain progress for the time being. Hongqi is more involved here to reduce the research and development time and resources occupied as much as possible.
As for the ambulance project...
Find out a random one from the vehicle model database, make some changes to adapt to it, and quickly compare and calculate.
With this in mind, he returned to the conference room, re-planned the current research and development with Xu Fufang and others, and urgently transferred a small number of people from the Hongqi R&D team to prepare for the ambulance project.
After the matter was explained, he returned directly to his office.
After locking the doors and windows, I opened the long-lost Xapp.
In X space, it is still dark. Li Fanyu rubbed his big hands and entered the model database without hesitation.
Li Fanyu uses this database less and less.
The reason for this is that the scale of Zhengxin R&D center has gradually expanded, and Zhengxin’s R&D strength has steadily increased, which has given the group its own technical system, technology accumulation and R&D processes. It is said that forging iron requires one's own strength. Although Li Fanyu has this technical backing, Zhengxin still has to cultivate his own skills if he wants to go far. He cannot rely too much on these skills, which are like drugs, which can be addictive and produce strong effects. Convenience of side effects.
Secondly, it is also because the models in the model database are no longer suitable for the current market to a large extent.
In the past four years that Zhengxin has been making cars, it has captured a large market share through the launch of these models.
Zhengxin is like an unreasonable catfish thrown into a sardine bucket called the automobile market. Relying on its super vitality and big size, it constantly encourages those originally comfortable sardines to swim desperately.
The application of various black technologies in Zhengxin Automobile is prompting Zhengxin’s competitors to improve their technologies. This has already raised the standards of car configuration and quality in this time and space by a large margin.
Most of the models in Li Fanyu's car model database are up to 2016. Most of these models have lost their original advantages in today's market.
For example, the three models A3, Q3, and Q7. In fact, there are three prototype cars in the database from the time and space before the automobile history changed. They can be put into production directly after taking them out. However, Li Fanyu completely let Zhengxin R&D Center handle the research and development of these three models.
Li Fanyu had already anticipated the obsolescence of technology when he used this convenience.
This is also the reason why he has been relentlessly increasing investment in Zhengxin’s R&D and has been unswervingly cultivating Zhengxin’s own R&D strength.
If it weren't for the fact that he was really exhausted and didn't have the energy to start the research and development of ambulances from scratch, Li Fanyu still wouldn't use this model database.
But the situation is stronger than the person, and he is still standing in front of the control panel.
"Well, ambulances should all be modified from light passenger cars."
Standing in front of the vehicle model database, Li Fanyu flipped through the pages lightly. After a short while, I found two light passengers that had left a deep impression on me in the previous time and space.
One is the sibling of the current Zhengxin pickup truck, which is the Ford E350, a relatively famous nanny car in the previous time and space.
One model is the first choice for business light passengers under GMC General Motors, SAVANA, Business Star.
These two cars can be said to be the masterpieces of American light passenger cars.
In fact, according to common sense, Li Fanyu would choose the E350 without hesitation. After all, the E350's body structure and chassis platform are similar to those of the F-series pickup trucks.
But the current trouble facing Li Fanyu is that except for the F750, which has a domestic production line, all F-series trucks are manufactured by Zhengxin's American branch. Moreover, the E350 belongs to the light passenger category between the F150 and the 750, and is very different in many key parts.
And then there is...
The positioning of the E350 is really too high. Even if you leave out the interior, some configurations far exceed the configuration and performance lines required for an ambulance chassis. The model demand image submitted by Su Mang's Bazaar Foundation is for a model with a purchase cost of between 200,000 and 300,000 yuan, and a total price of less than 600,000 yuan after installing a universal medical warehouse.
This point cannot be satisfied if it is put on the E350 without major changes.
In fact, even the relatively low-cost GMC Business Star is slightly higher based on the foundation's requirements.
But the gap between E350 and Business Star from this requirement is about 60-20 and 40-20.
In terms of convenience, GMC-SAVANA is better.
After careful consideration, Li Fanyu chose the SAVANA data package.
"Tips: Are the test users sure to consume 450,000 R&D points in the current period to redeem all GMC-SAVANA model data packages?"
Seeing the 450,000 R&D points, Li Fanyu shrugged.
For him now, this research and development point is really not worth mentioning.
"Yes!"
On the virtual control panel, he clicked the confirmation button without hesitation.
"The points are successfully deducted. Congratulations to the current test user, GMC-SAVANA has been unlocked. Data transmission is in progress. Please pay attention to the current test user to receive it."
Li Fanyu connected the mobile hard drive he carried with him to the control panel. In a short time, the entire data packet is transmitted.
Li Fanyu opened the data package on the control panel and took a careful look at the configuration and various assemblies above.
Li Fanyu, who is well versed in car cost control, discovered a very serious problem after just a quick glance.
Damn, the manufacturing cost of this GMC Business Star, even if the cabin part is empty without any interior decoration, it seems that the cost is still a little higher!
"No, no, no,"
Facing the various assemblies in the data package, Li Fanyu gently shook his head.
The ambulance project itself is for charity and does not make much money. If manufacturing costs cannot be suppressed any longer, I am afraid that even R&D costs will not be recovered.
What to do?
Li Fanyu scratched his hair, "It seems... we can only have a simple match!"
