Chapter 408 Baojun 320
Yao Yuan opened the door, pulled out the seat belt, and said, "Another advantage of Baojun 320 is that it has very good safety performance. It is the first car in China to use a three-point seat belt. It is equipped with front airbags and ESP, which is the electronic body stability system.
.”
"ESP? Not ABS?" Vice Governor Zhang knew about this advanced technology. There is no ABS technology in China, and foreign brand cars have not yet become standard equipment.
Yao Yuandao, "ESP is a more advanced control system than ABS, ABS anti-braking system, and ESP is equivalent to the brain of the car, sending instructions to ABS and other systems. Leaders, worldwide, only the Mercedes-Benz S-Class
The luxury cars are equipped with ESP systems, and they have just installed them."
"It can be said that in terms of technology, Baojun 320 is at least two generations more advanced than Santana. Santana doesn't even have seat belts."
In the 1980s and 1990s, cars did not have seat belts, which seems unbelievable now, but at the time it was a common phenomenon.
The country's technical standards for automobile safety have not been updated yet. For foreign brands like Volkswagen, we should save on what we can and don't treat Chinese people as human beings.
Western capitalists pursue ultimate profits. They never consider issues from the perspective of social responsibility, and will ask a lot of so-called experts and scholars to come up with a lot of so-called theories to change the social responsibilities that enterprises should bear towards "reality".
"Market competition" mentioned above.
At present, there are no regulatory documents for automobile safety technical standards in China, and there is no standard document to stipulate the qualification inspection of automobiles leaving the factory. This has led to car companies making some reductions in design.
Santana, Jetta and other models that have been popular in China for more than 20 years are actually unknown to Chinese people. As early as the year when these models entered China, they had already begun to reduce their configurations.
Yao Yuan felt very heavy when he thought of all these things.
Around 2000, the country began to issue technical standards for motor vehicle operation. With the development of the times, this regulation was continuously revised and added new content. In 2018, the latest standard was formed, which is a guiding regulatory document for the automobile industry.
However, Yao Yuan will not sit back and watch in this life. He will force the country to legislate and force out the true face of the so-called Volkswagen's magic car.
Yao Yuan said in a deep voice, "Our esp is developed by ourselves. If we include the research funds, we will have to bear a loss of 30,000 yuan for every car sold, and this is based on annual sales of 100,000 vehicles.
superior."
He looked around and saw no one, so he asked, "Where is Sergey?"
Zhan Chenggui said, "In the office."
Yao Yuan took Vice Governor Zhang to the Electronic Technology Research Institute. There were more people inside and it seemed more lively than during the day.
Vice Governor Zhang couldn't help but ask, "The Academy of Sciences also implements a three-shift working system?"
"No, Chunfeng Academy of Sciences does not stipulate uniform working hours. Each research institute and each project team arranges their own time. Even if you don't work for a month, there is no problem." Zhan Chenggui explained.
Vice Governor Zhang said, "It's inappropriate to manage things this way. It can easily breed inertia among employees. This work system still needs to be clearly defined."
Zhan Chenggui said, “We have a time limit for the research and development of applied application projects. If the research and development cannot be completed within the specified time, the project will be canceled or handed over to others, and the project team will be converted to an assistance type.
personnel. However, the institute does not make rigid regulations on their specific working hours and methods. Some pre-research projects and core projects are more free, such as esp technology, which is a pre-research project, and the institute does not regulate research time.
requirements, researchers themselves are very free to make their own arrangements.”
"I was surprised myself." Yao Yuan said with a smile, "This Sergey turned out to be a researcher at the Soviet Institute of Electronics. After he arrived in Nangang, he made an electronic ignition device for use on motorcycles. I saw that he
If he is interested in this area, let him do preliminary research on automobile safety technology, give him 18 million in research funds every year, and let him do whatever he wants, thinking that it will be good if he can produce results in three to five years, but it turns out that this guy
We put in a satellite and actually came up with applicable ESP technology.”
At this time, Lin Wei couldn't help but interjected, "After the technical committee evaluated Sergey's project situation, it believed that it met the conditions for a large-scale additional budget. The group invested 1 billion yuan at once and mobilized hundreds of scientists from our institute.
We also organized thousands of technical experts in Novosibirsk and Europe, all led by Sergey to tackle key problems. This is how we can come up with ESP technology that can be put into use so quickly."
Vice Governor Zhang shook his head and said with emotion, "You dare to invest tens of millions of dollars for a research project that you don't know whether it will produce results. You just saw some prospects and invested 1 billion yuan in research funds. If our country
With such financial resources, there is no need to cancel so many good projects."
"For the domestically produced large aircraft project, the R&D team submitted a report to apply for a fund and reported it to the national ministries and commissions, but in the end it was not approved. Do you know how much it was?" Vice Governor Zhang asked Yao Yuan.
Yao Yuan said in a deep voice, "My teacher was also a member of the R&D team back then, and he told me."
"Well, I almost forgot that you are Academician Mo's disciple. It's a mere 30 million yuan. For a national-level project, a mere 30 million yuan of research funding can't be approved. It's a pity." Vice Governor Zhang obviously said.
I know very well what happened in the past not long ago, and there are many emotions in my words.
Yao Yuan suddenly smiled and said, "If the province is interested, Southern Industrial can take over the large aircraft project and develop this large aircraft that can win praise for the Chinese people."
"Don't be ridiculous, planes are not cars." Vice Governor Zhang didn't take it seriously because it was too unbelievable.
Yao Yuan did not continue, because it is better to approach the province for this matter than to approach one's own teachers. On national strategic projects, academicians have much more say than the provincial government.
Walking into the open office, it is spacious and bright. There are more than a dozen researchers busy, most of them are in their thirties and forties, and most of them are foreign faces.
When they saw a bunch of people coming in to visit, they just turned their heads and glanced, then continued to do their own thing.
Yao Yuan pointed to an unkempt Eastern European young man and said, "He is Sergey. He graduated three years ago and worked for more than a year. As a result, the country was destroyed."
Vice Governor Zhang looked at Sergey, who was only in his twenties. He was staring at the computer screen with his chin in his hands, concentrating. Everyone came to him, and he did not turn around to look. Vice Governor Zhang noticed that Sergey
The microcomputer used by Ergai was very small and had never been seen before, and everyone else used the same model. This kind of office looked very modern.
Just when Vice Governor Zhang thought that Sergey was solving some technical problem, he suddenly discovered that there were playing cards on the computer screen. Even people who don’t understand computers would know that it was a poker game!
This guy is playing a game.
However, Vice Governor Zhang noticed that Yao Yuan and others seemed not to be surprised. Yao Yuan even picked up the thermos bottle on the table and thoughtfully refilled Sergey's tea cup, for fear of delaying his game!
"There are no requirements in the hospital for what researchers do at work. Scientific research work sometimes requires creative thinking. In the final analysis, it is just one sentence: do whatever you feel comfortable with, as long as the ultimate goal is research." Yao Yuan explained.
Yao Yuan did not disturb Sergey, led Vice Governor Zhang around the office, and introduced in a low voice, "The Institute of Electronics is the core institute of the Academy of Sciences, and the Novosibirsk Research Center that provides technical support to companies is the Electronic Research Center
Subordinate departments of the institute.”
"The Institute of Electronics also has the highest annual budget." Lin Wei couldn't help but say, "The fixed budget is 300 million yuan, which will increase at an increase rate of 8% every year. If the project enters the applied research stage,
Funding allocations are calculated separately.”
Vice Governor Zhang was secretly stunned. Just for the few research institutes he knew so far, the annual fixed research funding budget exceeded 1 billion Chinese dollars.
He couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Yao, how much money do you invest in Chunfeng Academy of Sciences every year?"
"More than half of Yuanda Group's profits, and all of France's Ward Investment Management Group, are the funds of Chunfeng Academy of Sciences. The annual budget arrangement is about 2 billion. If it is not enough, funds will be mobilized from other enterprise groups." Yao Yuan thought.
Think about it and say.
Vice Governor Zhang was surprised and said, "How much profit does Yuanda Group have?"
"Of course not, the main force is Ward Group. Yuanda Group is still in the stage of rapid development, and part of the profits needs to be retained for business expansion. However, Yuanda Group has a strong ability to withdraw funds, and 1 billion can be used as 2 billion." Yao Yuan
explain.
Zhou Liang added, "Governor, all the companies owned by Mr. Yao have no bank loans, not even a penny of loans."
The executive deputy governor in charge of economy and industry knows very well what this means.
With the size of Spring Breeze Asset Management Group, without any external debt, it can at least leverage the same amount of loan funds, which is tens of billions of funds.
Vice Governor Zhang shook his head subconsciously, "You have always stressed that Southern Industrial has no financial pressure. I believed it at first, but now I discovered that not only Southern Industrial, but also all the corporate groups of your Dongfeng Group have abundant funds."
"Indeed, our biggest headache is that there are too many funds without ideal investment channels. Currently we can only expand on the original basis. We may consider diversifying operations next year." Yao Yuan said with a frown.
Vice Governor Zhang, Deputy Secretary-General Lin and others no longer think that Yao Yuan is in Versailles. They have learned knowledge and expanded their knowledge.
Yao Yuan intended to take this opportunity to popularize some advanced economic development concepts for future generations to officials of this era. He said, "It is actually the same for the government. Sometimes the fiscal deficit is a very important indicator. Compared with enterprises, the fiscal deficit
It’s more important for the government.”
"The so-called deficit means that fiscal expenditures are greater than fiscal revenue. On the surface, it seems that the government is borrowing money to survive or spend money in the future. In fact, this data can exactly reflect the current situation and future prospects of local economic construction."
"From the perspective of our enterprise, except for some special industries, the funds in the account should be spent in a planned way, whether it is investment to increase value or the establishment of industry. Only when it is spent can it reflect the enterprise's ability to create benefits."
"The companies with the strongest capital withdrawal capabilities and the most abundant cash flow are Yuanda Electrical Appliances and Yuanda Wanjia Supermarket Chain under the Yuanda Group. These two companies return more than 10 million in cash every day. If this money is kept in the bank and has not been spent for a long time,
From a macro perspective, it means that there is downward pressure on the economy, people are unwilling to consume, and the market will naturally shrink. The booming market means that there are a lot of investment opportunities, and companies have the motivation to expand production and operations."
"As a leader, the government expands deficits to stimulate the market and promote economic development. This is a common practice in many countries. The U.S. government often does this, but the funds released by them by expanding deficits are used on war and military expenditures. This is
A very dangerous approach.”
After a pause, Yao Yuan said, "After three years of adjustment, with the resolution of the triangular debt crisis, the domestic economic development momentum is improving. Our province is the forefront of reform and opening up. Chunjiang Plumbing Duck Prophet, we are Xijiang Plumbing
Duck Prophet, I estimate that starting from next year, our province's economic development trend will be in a very positive state, and our province's GDP should increase significantly."
"Infrastructure construction is particularly critical. When the province arranges its budget for next year, it may wish to consider enlarging the deficit and investing more funds in infrastructure, especially transportation and road facilities."
Having said this, Yao Yuan stopped, pointed to the vehicle testing ground in front, and motioned to Vice Governor Zhang to move forward, "Baojun 320 has started running laps and is running around the clock. The technical indicator is to drive continuously for three days."
There will be no damaging failure for 100,000 kilometers.”
Vice Governor Zhang nodded slightly, "I will reflect your opinions truthfully. Xiao Yao, are you interested in teaching us? The economic wave is coming. Although we are not blind to each other, we are not familiar with each other."
"No problem." Yao Yuan agreed without hesitation. This was not the time to keep a low profile on this matter.
As soon as they walked into the vehicle testing ground, they heard the sound of cars driving at high speed. A group of people came to the observation platform. What appeared in front of them was an oval-shaped track like a sports field. The road surface had a large inclination angle. Two Baojun 320s
The prototype car is racing along the track in circles at 80 kilometers and 100 kilometers respectively.
"This is part of the automobile durability test. Our test standards are 10 percent higher than those in Europe," Yao Yuan said.
Vice Governor Zhang was surprised, "Does it mean that the technical standards are also 10% higher if it is 10% higher?"
Yao Yuan smiled and said, "The technical standard exceeds 10%. To be honest, most of the technologies here come from Eastern European countries and technical personnel from Eastern European countries. We are still in the process of learning."
"It's amazing to be able to do this. Xiao Yao, this Baojun 320 of yours is not only a national sedan, but also a competitive car for us."
