1980 My Entertainment Era

Chapter 404 Wuling!

When Xia Tian was leaving, A Ying was very sad, but she didn't dare to ask him to stay. She just asked quietly, "When will you come back?"

Xia Tian looked at her and pulled her aside, saying, "...How about you go to Yanjing with me to play for a while? You haven't been to the capital yet!"

Aying was happy at first, but then she became shy again.

Although I have become very familiar with Milan over the phone, what should I say if I really meet her?

She murmured, "No, no, I'm not ready yet."

However, his words are enough.

When Xia Tian heard her say that, he said to Wang Fei, "Fei Fei, when the Asian Games are held in September, you can bring A Ying to Yanjing to see the Asian Games."

Wang Fei nodded repeatedly: "Leave it to me!"

Sister Ying is not ready, but I am!

When I meet them, I call them sister and praise them. How can they scold me?!

Ah Ying also nodded: There are still five months until September, so I'll go and have a look then, that's fine...

Xia Tian and Brother Yong kept waving to the friends who came to see them off. Each of them was pulling two large suitcases - all of which were gifts. Finally, they passed the checkpoint.

In the distance, several paparazzi were looking for angles and burning film like crazy.

You know what, some of them are quite talented in photography, and their angles, composition and lighting are all very good.

Take separate photos of Xia Tian, ​​A Ying and Wang Fei~
Tomorrow's headline has been thought out - "Two women send their lover home, but they don't know when he will return?"

……

Pengcheng is on this side of the checkpoint. Xia Tian even signed a few autographs for the comrades at the customs - they are real fans, as there are more than a dozen of Xia Tian’s songs in the lyrics book!
There are even more friends here, including friends from Guangzhou, Shenzhen... Guangdong and Hainan provinces, about fifty or sixty people.

After all, this is the frontier of reform and opening up, so there are the most friends "hanging out" here.

Moreover, I have to "inspect" the factories here in the summer. After all, I don't want to ruin the "foreign trade strategy" I have formulated.

When we visited the factory, some local district leaders also came. They praised the big star for supporting production and foreign trade.

In short, I can’t leave within two or three days, and the schedule I had previously made is now scheduled until the day after tomorrow.

In the summer, I meet with leaders and visit factories during the day, talk to those factory managers about production plans and quality assurance, and also paint a rosy picture for them.
Meet those friends in the evening, solve some of their problems, and make some decisions.

Some friends also have conflicts, and he is responsible for mediating them.

Some need to cooperate, and he acts as a middleman.

At this time, it is not impossible to fight alone, but the risk is great - only by working together can we withstand the storm!

Just when Xia Tian felt that it was enough and he could leave.

Suddenly a friend brought someone and introduced him, "This is Director Liu from the Sales Department of Liuzhou Mini Car Manufacturing Plant..."

"This is Xia Tian, ​​I don't need to introduce myself to you, right?"

Xia Tian looked at his friend a little confused: What's going on?
That friend had been doing mechanical processing business in Yangcheng and met Liu Weiqi's sales director two years ago.

This time, it was Director Liu who heard that Xia Tian was in Pengcheng, so he used his connections to get to know him and see if they could work together.
Cooperation?

Xia Tian was a little confused. Nothing about me has anything to do with the manufacturing industry?

They just want to export...How can domestically made cars be exported now? Most of them are still handmade!

In future generations, this might be something that people can brag about as being handmade, low-key, luxurious and meaningful - but now it represents technological backwardness!

Finally, the friend whispered to Xia Tian, ​​"This is what happened. Didn't you buy a Yanjing Jeep when you were in Yanjing? Wow, they have been advertising in the newspapers for half a year, and their Jeep sales have almost doubled!"

"Old Liu is also worried about the mini trucks produced by his factory. Now, knowing that you are in Pengcheng, he rushed here overnight to ask if we can cooperate. They will give you one for free, just say hello!"

Xia Tian: Ah~ You want me to be a shill? No, you want me to be an advertiser~
Wait, Liuzhou Micro Vehicle Factory?

Xia Tian's heart moved, and he couldn't help asking: "Director Liu, if I can help your factory, I'm willing to do so. But I don't know if the cars you produce..."

"Brother Tianer, there is absolutely no problem with our car! The quality is very good!"

He was a little excited, maybe because he thought Xia Tian was a panacea. Xia Tian waved his hands again and again: "No, no, no, call me Xia Tian!"

You look almost as old as my dad, please don't scare me!

"Can we tell you more about our minivan?"

He really doesn't hide anything and speaks very honestly!
Even the company originally produced tractors, and this so-called mini truck was copied from a Japanese model.

That's fine! Honesty is the basis of cooperation.

These days, it is still a bit too early for us to design and build cars completely independently.

Just copy it~
Anyway, I don’t dare to worry too much about my daily life!
In Director Liu's narration, Xia Tian seemed to see a factory that was established decades ago and is striving forward in the tide of the times. Very dynamic!
They were originally a machinery factory. In 25, the country needed weapons, so it became an arsenal.

Later the country needed airplanes again, and they produced airplanes again.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was converted back into a machinery factory to produce ship engines.

But there were only a few ships in the country at that time? However, agriculture was vigorously developed at that time, and they became a tractor factory!
And they are doing a good job, one of the four key production units in the country.

Harvest tractor, very famous!

After that, isn’t the planned economy a thing of the past?
The factory didn't have a very keen sense of smell - few people turned around quickly these days, so the factory's tractors were piled up.

In the past, purchases were made in bulk or in distribution, in short, it was planned.

But now that the production quota has been set, who can afford this thing? The machines in the production team are all idle and rusty...

Therefore, in the early 1980s, the factory had to face the issue of transformation.

They have successively produced sewing machines, looms, electric fans... The Wanjia sewing machines they produce are also very famous.

Chun Ma’s monitor is a Wanjia brand, and its shape is very square and angular!
In the early years of summer, my thoughts were quite divergent, and I was always worried that it would suddenly turn into a Transformer.
Now that I think about it, it turns out they used to make tractors ~ that’s not surprising!

However, "specializing in a variety of products" is fine for a while, but if there is no main product for a long time, the factory will be in chaos.

Moreover, sewing machines alone cannot support the entire factory.

So, two years ago, the country imported a Japanese Mitsubishi pickup truck and asked some factories to research and imitate it.

The factory director at that time was a very far-sighted and idealistic person - he issued a military order to ensure that the task was completed. Then the car was given to them.

——Originally, Shen Ji was to conduct research together with them, one producing the car body and the other producing the chassis.

In the end, Shen Ji didn't get anything and went bankrupt.
One thought is heaven, one thought is hell!

When the car came back, they sought help from technicians everywhere and spent two years to copy more than 5,500 parts one by one.

Then the senior technicians rubbed it into shape by hand! It was made by hand~
In the past few years, there were many factories that tried to find their own way out, and many of them wanted to build cars.

The higher-ups saw that since everyone wanted to make it, why not hold a meeting to evaluate each company's products?

So we decided to hold a car designation meeting in Tianjin to see which companies are qualified to produce cars?

It was the later "car birth permit"~
In order to prove that the mini trucks produced by Liuwei Auto are of high quality, they drove directly to Tianjin, a journey of more than 2,300 kilometers, and really nothing happened!
My scalp goes numb when I hear this in the summer!

No, the Bayinbuluke Rally isn’t as far away as yours, right?

A few young technicians, carrying out a lonely rally across China? !
By 83, Liuwei Car had become one of the country's four designated micro-car manufacturers.

By 85, they had produced mini trucks and renamed them Liuweiche.

In 86, Japan's Mitsubishi officially authorized them to produce mini trucks - they could produce them even without authorization!

In 87, their mini trucks finally had their own logo - the "W" brand of Wanjia sewing machines was copied from the style of Mitsubishi.

Since you are Mitsubishi, then I must be better than you. My name is - Wuling!
Xia Tian heard it and said: Yes, it’s you! Wuling!

“Wuling produces what the people need!”

Perhaps, it is precisely because of its misfortunes and the things it has experienced that it has the confidence to say this!

Since it’s Wuling, I have to help no matter what!
"Tell me, how do you want me to help?"
