Start with a blacksmith shop.

Chapter 108 continues

The two returned to the meeting room, but Li Zhenhua had already left and returned to his own office.

Guo Shugui made him a cup of tea, and only after the two sat down did they begin to discuss business.

"Mr. Guo, I don't understand what you just said. Are you saying that your company doesn't produce snowmobiles?"

Guo Shugui took a sip of tea and nodded.

Hu Xiu got anxious. Wasn't this just teasing him? What was there to talk about if they didn't even have such a product?

"Minister Hu, don't worry, we don't have this product, but I have a way!"

Hu Xiu was overjoyed, as if he had heard fantastic news. He had already visited all the major motorcycle factories in China.

However, the results weren't very good; it was all the same old technology.

There was absolutely no innovation in some areas, let alone regarding engines.

Even when commissioning custom-made snowmobiles for them, the equipment the team received was no different from what they had purchased before.

It's equally unreliable to use it in Antarctica, which is equivalent to risking one's life every time one goes out.

But at his last stop, in Dongshan, he found something truly wonderful.

The other party has a strong ability to innovate technologically, with wildly imaginative and ingenious ideas.

With this in mind, he immediately looked at Guo Shugui.

"I believe you already know about our company; we have strong technical capabilities."

The engines used in the company's White Tiger motorcycles and flying boats were all independently developed by our chairman.

I believe that even if this product doesn't exist now, as long as our chairman intervenes,

The snowmobiles you need shouldn't be a problem.

After speaking, Guo Shugui took another sip of water.

He had just walked a long way with the other person and talked a lot, and was severely dehydrated and urgently needed to replenish his fluids.

Hu Xiu was speechless after hearing Guo Shugui's words. Even if you trust your boss a lot, you can't use this to fob me off.

Is developing this product really that simple? Did you think it could be produced just by touching your lips together?

Although he thought this way, he couldn't show it, since the other person was trying to find a solution for him.

"It sounds unbelievable, doesn't it?"

I'll call him right now and have him come over to talk to you!

After saying that, she took out her phone and called Li Zhenhua right in front of him.

He received a call from Guo Shugui, asking him to come over.

He assumed that the expedition team had been sent away, so he didn't think much of it and headed towards the reception room.

Pushing open the door, I saw Hu Xiu from the expedition team sitting there drinking water, his face full of worry.

Upon seeing Hu Xiu, he was somewhat at a loss for words.

Didn't he tell Guo Shugui to deal with the other party? Why is he still here now!

He turned his questioning gaze to Guo Shugui and asked him what was going on!

Guo Shugui completely ignored the signal he sent. When he saw him arrive, he pointed at him and then spoke to Hu Xiu.

"Look, this is our chairman. You've already met him."

Minister Hu, the success of your new equipment depends on him.

Hu Xiu then looked at Li Zhenhua. Wasn't this the person who had just brought him in?

And looking at his age, having lived half my life, I realized I'd never seen such a young company leader.

Hu Xiu stood up and shook hands with him before they started talking.

"Minister Hu, we understand your demands, but our company does not have..."

Just as he uttered the word "no," Guo Shugui immediately gave him a wink from somewhere Hu Xiu couldn't see.

Seeing Guo Shugui winking at him, he knew that Guo was signaling him to continue with what he had just said and not to say anything against it.

Although we don't know what Guo Shugui is up to, he's already in this situation.

We can only follow Guo Shugui's instructions and ask for the reason after the matter has passed.

"What I mean is, Minister Hu needs snowmobiles, and our company can manufacture snowmobiles."

And these are top-notch snowmobiles, they definitely won't disappoint you!

Give us two months, and we can definitely deliver the motorcycle to you!

If you've already made that boast, you have to deliver on it, otherwise it really will just be bragging.

He had already decided that after Hu Xiu left, he would settle accounts with Guo Shugui.

Hearing his words, which were considered a guarantee, Hu Xiu's initial uncertainty turned into anticipation.

The results will be available in two months, and even if the final product fails to meet the standards, there will still be time for him to purchase from other suppliers.

"Then I'll wait for your good news, please."

These snowmobiles are the team members' main mode of transportation in Antarctica. We wouldn't have bought more if they didn't frequently break down.

We hope your company's products can overcome these problems!

After receiving a response from Li Zhenhua, he also expressed his own needs.

He agreed, and Guo Shugui then spoke with Hu Xiu.

That evening, the two of them, along with Liu Xiaodong, had dinner with Hu Xiu and arranged accommodations.

On the way back, he finally asked Guo Shugui about it.

"Guoba, what are you up to today?"

Didn't you and Fatty complain about me the other day, saying you'd keep an eye on me?

"Aren't you telling me not to make any more trouble? Why did you agree to their request today?"

After a night of interaction, Liu Xiaodong also learned what it was about.

Before Guo Shugui could speak, he spoke first.

"Are you out of your mind from working on the equipment in the workshop?"

Do you know who the people who came here today are?

Of course he knew who the other person was, he replied confidently.

"I don't have dementia. The other person is the equipment management director of the Antarctic expedition team. What's wrong with that?"

Upon hearing his answer, the two people in the car felt an urge to pry open his head.

"Hua Zi, let me explain to you, this job that came to our door..."

We have to do it even if we don't make money, even if we lose money, and we have to do it well.

This is an Antarctic research team. What is their working environment like in Antarctica?

It was harsh, but our snowmobiles remained incredibly reliable even in such demanding working conditions.

This is great publicity for us, and it will have a positive impact on our company's image!

After listening to Liu Xiaodong's words, he understood why his two partners had behaved this way.

It turns out he had oversimplified things, thinking his company was already busy enough and didn't need to expand into new businesses.

But he was completely wrong. This project was something they absolutely had to win.

"Oh, so that's how it is. Am I being a bit rigid in my thinking?"

I thought we shouldn't keep making changes and should focus on strengthening the company's foundation.

I never imagined it had this meaning!

But do you know what I'm busy with right now?

I'm still building the production line!

You two told me not to mess around, but now you're actually finding me work on your own initiative.

I'm telling you, I'm fine with doing this, but if I come up with anything else later, you can't blame me!

Even if I manage to develop it, there's no need for us to turn it into a product. Keeping it as a technological reserve is fine, right?

He also took this opportunity to state his conditions.

The two of them fell silent, and looking at him like this, it was truly a bit of a wry smile.

The next day, Hu Xiu came to their company again and signed an agency contract, but he didn't pay any deposit.

Tao Xin from Hongdu Factory left, and Hu Xiu from the scientific expedition team also left, putting all the pressure on him.

The carefree days are gone forever. I have two big tasks to complete, and I'm incredibly busy.

Fortunately, he has now selected a few people from the company; otherwise, if he relied entirely on himself, who knows how busy he would be!

He's so busy now that he barely has time to play cards with Li Yun.

Fortunately, the virtual lab provided him with a foundation, giving him more time.

He needs to design and experiment; otherwise, he wouldn't dare say he'd get these two tasks done.

Busy times always pass quickly, and while he was busy, others were not standing still either.

After Li Zhenhua and his team delivered one hundred engines, Hongdu Factory immediately began construction.

With the initial production of some aircraft, and the addition of equipment after the initial success, we finally managed to assemble fifty planes.

It will be difficult to launch so many planes at once in the future.

This was mainly due to thorough preparations made beforehand, and Hongdu's confidence in the aircraft, which led to the production of additional reserves.

Today is a rather important day for Hongdu Factory.

This is yet another attempt by them to develop civilian applications; their first attempt was to civilianize the military-grade Changjiang 750.

However, this project wasn't very successful. Two years ago, we also tried replacing the engine in the car.

But in the end it still ended in failure. No one in the market recognized it, and it didn't sell as well as some refurbished old cars!

This attempt to produce civilian business jets, although initially fraught with setbacks, proceeded exceptionally smoothly in the later stages.

Their planes were manufactured, and finally someone wanted to buy them; the initial pessimism was not as dire as expected.

Their Hongdu factory is waiting for the buyers to pick up the aircraft, and someone has already gone to the airport to pick them up.

Hongdu Machinery Plant attaches great importance to this success because they are no longer solely relying on the Air Force's trainer aircraft and the maintenance of Q-5 fighter jets.

With another means of transportation, they can now learn from Shen Huoyi and invest their own money to develop a new generation of fighter jets.

In the future, aircraft manufactured by Hongdu Aircraft Factory will inevitably have a place among the aircraft of the Kyushu Air Force.

Hongdu Factory Chairman Gu Changkong stood on an open space, deep in thought. Behind him were the fifty aircraft that were about to be delivered.

Now all we're waiting for is for the Camel Kingdom to send people to take over and provide them with some basic training.

Once the other side's pilots are properly trained, they will be able to fly these planes back to Camel immediately.

Two more buses appeared at the entrance of Hongdu Factory, and more than a hundred camels dressed in white robes and wearing headscarves got off.

The one leading the order was Ahmed, who placed it at the Canada Airshow.

When Yan Hang saw him, he also came out from the Hongdu factory to greet him.

The two acted like longtime friends, shaking hands and chatting.
