1257 Under the deliberate blocking, can Audi still survive in China?

"According to our current research on the international automobile market, especially the top sales and Japanese cars that have always maintained the world's number one sales, they were able to export more than 6 million vehicles in 1980 and produce more than 11 million vehicles, surpassing the United States to become the world's number one automobile producer. And it has remained until now, mainly due to the impact of the oil crisis. Japanese small cars are durable, cheap, and cost-effective, especially fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly. Even if they cannot compare with Germany in terms of safety performance, the power system cannot be compared with Americans' own cars, but the overall performance is stronger..."

After Liu Yijiu got angry, Yin Chongqiang did not dare to choose the front drive or the rear drive.

The reason why he insisted on choosing front-wheel drive was largely due to the problem of reducing the weight of the car and reducing fuel consumption. Now, this design concept cannot be described.

"The safety performance of German cars is the highest; the power performance is not bad for American cars, but environmentally friendly and energy-saving, cheap prices. Japanese cars have the advantage. Where is our car's market competitiveness?" Liu Yijiu raised this question not to embarrass anyone.

Because design work must be based on the market.

Since Yin Chongqiang has already said that they decided on the design after studying the international market situation, they naturally have to consider where their automotive market competitiveness lies.

"If our cars only compare safety performance, they will definitely not be able to compare with German cars. The power system is even more incomparable to the United States. It is cheap and fuel-efficient. As a high-end car, it can barely compare with Japanese cars. Therefore, when designing our cars, we consider that the power system is safer than the same-grade cars of Japan, better than the same-grade cars of Germany, and higher cost-effectiveness than the American cars."

Tian Ji’s strategy for horse racing.

Although it was a bit suspected of bragging, Liu Yijiu did not think there was anything wrong with it.

Even if it cannot be achieved now, it is very good to treat it as a development goal.

"In addition, what we focus on is advanced technology. Don't countries around the world recognize that our domestic technology is not good? We just use facts to tell the world, and we must also tell our Chinese people that our technology is not worse than foreign countries!" Guo Hong said to Liu Yijiu with great enthusiasm.

When Liu Yijiu heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little amused.

Even though he proposed some development trends at the beginning, this seems to be really too impossible for Jialing Factory, which has basically not much technical reserves, even starting from scratch in terms of family cars, and has built an armored vehicle territory for many years, but is still not very satisfactory.

At least, the possibility of the last two decades is not too great.

"This idea is very good. I think it is still feasible as a goal. However, when we set goals, we must formulate them based on our foundation and the company's capabilities. Being too ambitious and exaggerating is not a good thing. History has proved that doing this is unsatisfactory." Liu Yijiu was most dissatisfied with this matter. As long as there were some signs, it must be curbed.

The second meeting of the Eighth National Congress proposed the slogan of catching up with the UK and the United States, requiring the country to concentrate and work hard, so that China surpassed the UK in 15 years or less in terms of production of major industrial products and caught up with the United States within 15 years.

As a result, the big steelmaking incident occurred, which seriously damaged the domestic ecological environment. At the same time, many steels made by the local techniques were simply unavailable.

The main industrial products surpassed the UK. In the era of Liu Yijiu, it took nearly sixty years for China to catch up with the United States, and even more than a hundred years for it!

This is just a comprehensive surpass in production, not quality.

When Guo Hong's face turned red when he heard Liu Yijiu think he was bragging, he immediately said to Liu Yijiu, "Director Liu, this is not an exaggeration, but a policy formulated by our unit many times!"

Even Liu Yijiu didn't believe it, and he proposed a car development strategy of selling over 100 billion vehicles in ten years at the beginning.

Focusing on technology is at least much easier than this.

Liu Yijiu was really curious, "We all know our domestic technology. In terms of automotive technology, how can we surpass it with more advanced cars?"

He wanted to listen, maybe, it was really possible.

"We need the approval of this matter in the Ninth Academy, because some technologies are currently confidentiality technology for military use..." Tan Qingfeng also spoke at this time.

"Tell me, what technologies do you need? If the confidentiality level is not too high, the impact is not too great, or it can bring us opportunities, I will consider it as appropriate!" Military technology is no better than other ones. Some military technology can be converted to civilian use and must be approved by senior military officials.

"We need super hard alloy aluminum wheels in the base. At the same time, we require the air conditioning technology used by Longwei tanks and higher-performance radio technology..." Yin Chongqiang directly proposed some of the technologies they needed, and these technologies are current military technology.

Even many domestic tanks do not use small air conditioners.

When Liu Yijiu heard these techniques, his eyes lit up.

Although it is military technology, it can be used both military and civilians, and these cannot cause any serious leakage to the technical performance of the Longwei tank.

"There is no problem with these technologies. Aluminum alloy wheels are not a problem!" Liu Yijiu made the decision immediately.

"In addition, regarding the issue of car chassis, we hope to use the chassis of our new infantry fighting vehicle. Of course, this requires some improvement. Only in this way can we improve the stable performance of our car at too high turning speed..."

"No problem!" Liu Yijiu was secretly shocked when she heard this.

It seems that these guys are not idle either. I guess they are all aiming at the technology used on the Dragon Guard tank that can be used in this car.

"We are also using Tian Ji's horse racing method, first put it on the market, become famous in one go, and use our top technology to seize the market." Seeing Liu Yijiu agree without thinking, he obviously knew the intention of the research team.

Such a method is also a helpless move.

Most of the technologies are mature military technology. Although after being introduced to the market, competitors can quickly develop new models with the same technology with strong technical strength, they will occupy the market first and form a brand effect. This is completely necessary for the Jialingchang automobile industry, which is just starting out.

"This method is good, but what if the competitors launch the same model? After all, many technologies cannot apply for patents because they involve military use." Liu Yijiu raised concerns.

He himself was not worried about this.

The problem is that these responsible persons must take these aspects into consideration.

"So, we do not intend to use all of these technologies, but gradually advance from the beginning, because the overall change is not large. Even if it is modified, it will only modify some details and the pace of production will not be disrupted. In foreign countries, if they want to launch a design similar to ours, they must re-engineer the overall design, and even many parts must be re-engineered and manufactured for production. In this way, there is a sufficient time difference for them to launch new designs while bringing out new designs..."

These guys from Jialing Factory are also considered to be deliberate.

No wonder several car designs were created at the beginning, and the configurations inside were also different.

"This method is good. However, at present, I don't think it is necessary to launch these things bit by bit. It is not a very advanced technology, because we have more technology to come up with! Since we can only make mid-to-high-end cars at present, we have to consider more detailed designs. The appearance of the car is unquestionable, and our power system is sufficient. The mechanical suspension is directly borrowed from armored vehicles, and the failure rate should be lower... In terms of interior, it uses leather and must be ergonomic... Even if it is a detailed design like an air conditioner switch, we also need to consider the outside. The outside is a conventional knob type, so we can consider the button-type design..." Liu Yijiu knows these things very clearly.

After all, this is the universal design of the 21st century automobile.

"In addition, when designing, part of the design must be reserved for the radio position, and a small screen display and CD player can be installed at that time..."

Liu Yijiu quickly expressed his opinion.

Everyone in Jialing Factory was quickly recording the work notebook they carried with them.

I originally thought it was over, but when I thought of such a car, after it was launched on the market, the biggest competitor it faced was the third-generation Audi launched by Audi NSU Automobile Alliance, which is known as synonymous with advancedness.

If there is no major deviation in history, Audi will be offline from FAW's assembly plant next year.

However, although this model designed in 1982 is advanced, it is not enough to watch than Jialing Machinery Factory, which is deliberately using the best domestic technology to block it.

Liu Yijiu is also very clear about the shortcomings of Audi 100.

"The steering wheel is of moderate size, feels good, and the speaker must appear classy..."

"In addition, all materials are lightweight and high-strength military materials, and they are directly launched on the market after they are designed. At the same time, some of them are mobilized to Germany to participate in the rolling collision test!"

Liu Yijiu said more and more, all of this seemed to be to prevent Audi from occupying a larger market in China.

Of course, his ambition is not just that, otherwise the people from Jialing Factory would not have introduced all the technology at once!

Under such a design, among mid-to-high-end cars, Audi 100 has basically no advantages except for being made from foreign products.
