50: Chapter 50 The New Materials Expert

Wang Xiuming was quite dissatisfied with his new materials expert right now.

Speaking in fits and starts.

Why not just say it all at once!

"How does this material perform, and how does it compare to Yi?"

Wang Xiuming calmed his mood and asked.

"Naturally, it's not as good as Yi, but it has the advantage of higher production volume and a relatively lower price."

"If we use this material to manufacture the Power System, fuel consumption and other aspects will decrease by about ten percent."

Wang Xiuming nodded; this was acceptable.

Right now, he didn't need a perfect-level Power System at all; even if he made one, he couldn't use it, right?

A new Power System with twenty percent lower fuel consumption and a 1.5 times power increase was enough.

Good things shouldn't be released all at once.

Otherwise, it would be too attention-grabbing.

Moreover, this is conducive to Hongqi's step-by-step development.

Wang Xiuming was looking forward to seeing what the brand-new elantra would look like once it was equipped with this Power System.

Right now, Zhou Xiyue and An Ruoyun were already working on the research, development, and modification of the elantra.

Calculating the time, it should be about ready now.

He hoped they wouldn't let him down.

"And there's the latest control system for new energy vehicles, which requires 500,000 points..."

Wang Xiuming looked through the system mall at the things he needed most right now.

After his spending over these past few days, he only had about 300,000 system points left.

This was only thanks to the continuous sales of the xiaolong s21 and the dongfeng 21a.

At this rate, a month's time would be enough.

This control system could increase the stability and power control of new energy vehicles.

When paired with the Power System, it would make a real new energy vehicle.

He wondered what it would be like.

Wang Xiuming was excited.

After giving instructions to Liu regarding some production line and management issues, Wang Xiuming left Hongqi Heavy Industry.

In another half a month.

It would be the Jinling Heavy Industry Competition.

It was called a competition, but it was actually similar to an auto exhibition.

Except this time, what was being compared were the various data points of heavy machinery, as well as their cost-performance ratio.

Come to think of it.

Because Song Baimeng purchased the heavy industry god king, many heavy industry enterprises now knew about the new heavy machinery developed by Hongqi.

It was said that at the time, the chairman of Honghai Group, who was Song Baimeng's father, personally handled the testing of the heavy industry god king's various data points.

And so.

Hongqi received another order for 15 units of the heavy industry god king from Honghai.

Still at a twenty percent discount, ten million.

This price was something only Honghai Group could get from Wang Xiuming.

As for others?

Below twenty million? Don't even think about it.

Originally, Wang Xiuming had priced it at around thirteen million.

But after looking at various machinery in the heavy industry sector.

Wang Xiuming suddenly felt that thirteen million was still too low.

Currently, the largest heavy-duty cranes launched in the heavy industry sector started at ten million.

Of course, Wang Xiuming's heavy industry god king was not comparable to such cranes.

Because the tonnage of the heavy industry god king currently being produced was too small.

So Wang Xiuming chose a price point of twenty million.

Was this price high?

Not high at all; it was even a bit cheap.

The reason for this price point was so Wang Xiuming could compete with Liugong and Xialian, who already monopolized the Xia market.

At the very least, he had to grab half of their crane sales volume!

This was Wang Xiuming's minimum requirement.

If it weren't for the fact that the heavy industry god king was only produced in this tonnage model, Wang Xiuming was confident he could directly cut off their orders for cranes.

After all, compared to them, the heavy industry god king was on a completely different level.

Anyone, even someone who knew nothing about the heavy industry sector.

Could clearly see how useful the heavy industry god king was.

As long as they weren't blind, they would know how to choose.

Hongqi Innovation Building.

A building a full twenty stories tall, filled with various laboratories related to automobiles.

Of course, these laboratories only occupied about ten floors of space.

The other ten floors were reserved for other R&D projects that might emerge for Hongqi in the future.

Since he had the system, how could he only play with cars?

Inside the Innovation Building, young, vibrant people could be seen everywhere.

They were all poached from major universities across the country.

"Hello, Chairman!"

"Hello, Mr. Wang."

"Welcome, Mr. Wang..."

Along the way, many young people greeted Wang Xiuming.

Their eyes were filled with excitement and admiration.

Of course, there was even more awe.

Wang Xiuming was the chairman of Hongqi Group.

The man who single-handedly pulled Hongqi back from the brink of bankruptcy and made it the face of Xia's automotive industry again.

He was simply a legend.

"Is this Mr. Wang? He's so handsome!"

"It's one thing that Mr. Wang is great at business, but I heard that Hongqi's Xiaolong and the elantra currently under development were both personally designed by Mr. Wang!"

"If only I could be Mr. Wang's lover; I'd be willing to do anything for him!"

The young people watched Wang Xiuming's retreating figure and discussed enthusiastically.

This was Wang Xiuming's first time visiting the Innovation Building, so it was normal for him to cause such a sensation.

"You, wanting to be Mr. Wang's lover?"

"Even our design director and chief engineer don't have a chance, let alone you guys."

"If I were Mr. Wang, I would have already taken both of these great beauties home!"

"Tch, I'm afraid Mr. Wang has already beaten us to the punch; we just don't know it yet."

However, the young people's focus was still more on the gossip about Wang Xiuming.

After all, Zhou Xiyue and An Ruoyun were simply the perfect goddesses in their hearts.

Countless top students had pursued the two of them crazily from the first day they entered the Innovation Building.

Unfortunately, Zhou Xiyue and An Ruoyun had no interest in that regard.

Ever since coming to Hongqi, the two of them had been working desperately every day.

Looking at the R&D and modification progress of the elantra, even Wang Xiuming couldn't help but sigh.

These two women were working too hard.

It had only been a few days, and the work progress had reached this point.

Originally, half a month was already short enough.

As a result, these two had managed to push it to 95% in just ten days.

There were even people who told Wang Xiuming to persuade these two Hongqi factory beauties.

If they continued like this, their health would collapse.

In the design department, even though Wang Xiuming stood at the doorway.

The two of them didn't notice at all.

They were still discussing work.

"By the way, have you written your wills yet?"

"If one day you collapse at Hongqi, I won't be paying any compensation."

Wang Xiuming's teasing voice came from the doorway.

The two people who were passionately discussing were stunned, clearly startled by Wang Xiuming's sudden appearance.

"Holy crap, why are you here?"

"Do you walk without making any sound?"

Hearing the two questions, Wang Xiuming felt slightly helpless.

Clearly, it was because these two were too focused, okay?

"Hmph, you want to withhold our compensation?"

"Let me tell you, not a single cent less!"
