A few days ago, Zhou Yuanchao took a group of more potential personnel to Australia and went to the studio there for training. This article was first published by...

And he was also taking those people step by step for a month to make those people familiar with the working environment as soon as possible.

The purpose of those people going to the studio in Australia is to learn the design concepts of those Australians, rather than their attitude towards life.

In Li Yifan's opinion, the life and work attitudes of these Australians are definitely not worth learning. They come to work at 9 o'clock in the morning and have afternoon tea at half past ten o'clock. After working for an hour, it's lunch time, and there's afternoon tea in the afternoon.

In short, one day is eight hours of working hours, but in fact, their actual working hours are just four or five hours.

And they also need high wages and high benefits, and they have paid leave every year and never work overtime. In short, in addition to their design concepts and creativity, in Li Yifan's view, these guys are just a group of waste who are willing to deduct.

If it weren't for the D-private 6 as an automatic transmission, he wouldn't bother to pay attention to these grandchildren.

But there is one thing you have to convince, that is, the design ideas and creativity of these people. This aspect has always been a shortcoming for domestic designers.

Of course, this has a lot to do with our educational environment. The current cramming education has also greatly stifled the innovation ability of domestic designers. Of course, this is all about the broader perspective.

What he has to do now is to re-restore the innovative capabilities of these domestic designers.

Li Yifan waited here for more than a week. Zhou Yuanchao finally came back from Australia. He was also a workaholic. The next day after he got home, he immediately came to the company to check the progress of his work.

After all, he is only in his early forties, and he is a good time to do his career, and he is also very career-oriented, otherwise he would not have given up his high-paying job in Australia and returned to China.

Li Yifan has been waiting for him for a long time. After meeting Zhou Yuanchao, he first went to his power transmission department to take a look.

This is a newly built team. Yang Rong used to attach great importance to transmission production and research and development, but later he changed his mind and planned to subcontract this part.

And he planned to set up a special accessories company somewhere in the south, which was one of the main reasons why he angered the conservatives in the North Province.

In fact, Li Yifan is not particularly opposed to Yang Rong's ideas. After all, in the era of local protectionism in China, if you do not build branches or parts factories in other provinces, cities and regions, then your car will definitely be quite difficult and hindered if you want to enter the local market.

But he can see that both factories and parts factories are fine, but this R&D center and design center are not planned to move it out. It is best to keep such a studio in his palm.

So he installed the power and transmission department in the old factory of Chenhua Automobile. The production department of the new factory has been completed. Soon after, several high-rise buildings will be built there, which are specially reserved for the company's engine research and development department and power transmission department.

But construction has not started there yet, so this design department is now temporarily using several old buildings in the old factory area.

But even so, the conditions are much better than before. Chenhua Automobile's power transmission department used to occupy half a floor, the office space was very small, and the laboratory was even more nonsense.

But now that Li Yifan took over, they not only have their own special office building, a rest area, and an experimental site, which makes all R&D and designers very satisfied.

Although the people left behind are the first people Zhou Yuanchao selected, these people are very enthusiastic about their work.

After Zhou Yuanchao left, the first task left for them was to fully understand the five-speed manual-automatic transmission technology that Li Yifan got from Saab, and they have completed it very well now.

Although they are all old guys in their thirties and forties, their enthusiasm for work has not diminished at all. Only then did they take over this part of the information. In a few months, they have fully understood the technical information by nearly 60%.

"In fact, the development of this transmission is different from that of the engine. The engine's working situation is relatively complicated, and the design of the parts requires a lot of consideration. In other words, the transmission is just a few gears, bearings, and the outer shell of the transmission. In fact, all the transmissions on the market seem to be patented, but in fact they are not a big deal. What really bothers many manufacturers is actually processing capacity and mass production capacity. Speaking of a transmission, even if the gear is high, our domestic workers can do it, but that

It is purely manual. If large-scale mechanization mass production is used, it may not be realistic. After all, our machining ability cannot be achieved. On the other hand, it is still a cliché material problem. What material is used, where the material is used, and what kind of material can be used to reduce the weight of the transmission while ensuring the maximum transmission efficiency of the transmission. These are the problems that have been bothering us in the past, but now Mr. Li, you have helped us solve the machining and material problems, so the rest is much easier to do."

After accompanying Li Yifan around several laboratories, Zhou Yuanchao returned to his office with Li Yifan and explained to Li Yifan as soon as he sat down.

In fact, Li Yifan has always been very strange about the speed of these engineers. You must know that the engine technology he got from Saab and the transmission technology were almost at the same time.

However, Lao Liang's speed of replicating the engine was much higher, and the talents and resources on their side were all tilted by themselves. Although he also gave a great resource tilt by himself on the transmission transmission department, in terms of strength, it was still not as high as Lao Liang's engine R&D department, but the progress here was faster, so he was a little curious.

Now that Zhou Yuanchao explained this to him, he felt like he understood a lot.

"In fact, the most difficult part of this transmission is the same as the engine. First, the material is the finishing process, and large-scale machining. Now these two items are not a problem, so the rest is the last item, which is the same as the engine, with a large amount of data accumulation. Automatic transmissions are different from manual transmissions. This requires an electronic control program to control the timing of gear switching. This is the most common TCU on the transmission. To put it bluntly, it is a program like the driving computer ECU, and this TCU needs to work with ECU. Mr. Li, the two materials you have obtained.

In other words, the data records about this tcu are very mature, so they don’t need to start from the most basic way like Lao Liang and others. After all, what they want to do is to learn a systematic knowledge, which will be a series of engine configurations needed by the company in the future. That is a huge amount of data, waiting for them to process, and what we have to do is to make a five-speed transmission data, and the information you get already has a lot of data, which is data of engines with different displacements. What we have to do now is to understand all of these data thoroughly and then optimize it closer to the possible. So the speed will be much faster than Lao Liang and others.”

The explanation given by Zhou Yuanchao is to answer Li Yifan's questions and questions.

"And, in our opinion, the gap between these five-speed automatic transmissions and six-speed automatic transmissions is not the same as the same level. Judging from the current market and the downward popularity of high-level transmissions, these five-speed manual transmissions only have a few years of life on the market, so it is not worth our attention. This technology was practiced for these people at that time."

Zhou Yuanchao's opinion on the five-speed automatic transmission is actually coincidental with Li Yifan. He has such a vision because of his years of experience in this industry.

Li Yifan has such an opinion, but it is entirely because he has more than ten years of life experience than people today.

From its birth, this five-speed automatic transmission was destined to be a character that grandma would not kiss and uncle would not love.

The four-speed automatic transmission was born after World War II and was used until 2000 years later. It has a very long lifespan and is classic.

Based on the development of General Motors, major automobile companies around the world have deeply explored and improved this transmission in many aspects. The best one is Aisin Seiko.

In fact, in the eyes of many professionals, the fifth-speed automatic transmission is just a transition from upgrading from a fourth-speed automatic transmission to a six-speed automatic transmission.

Because the upgrade of the fourth gear to the sixth gear is quite large, the internal transformation of the automatic transmission will be very high, so upgrading only one gear is not worth the cost in many people's opinion, so it is better to upgrade one more.

However, it takes a long time to upgrade one more, so the five-speed automatic transmission was born as a transitional product at this time.

In the original history, a few years later, when Volkswagen popularized their DSG transmissions, the employment of six-speed automatic transmissions soon became popular.

At this time, the five-speed automatic transmission was gradually eliminated from the market. Of course, there are still many companies in China to use it. After all, the five-speed automatic transmission is also a high-end product for them who do not have independent design and processing capabilities.
