Rebirth 1984: Starting with the development of Hanka

"At present, the degree of localization of my country's automobile industry is far from enough, and most of the profits are actually made by foreign companies. And our Tiangong Technology began to get involved in the independent production of automobile engines, gearboxes and chassis as early as two or three years ago. R&D, so far, has achieved small results... Recently, Tiangong Technology Company has introduced advanced technology from Daimler, and all R&D personnel are working hard to learn and digest it... In order to promote the localization of auto parts, I suggest that we increase our efforts in Research and development in the fields of materials, high-end CNC machine tools, automated robot arms, automotive software, automotive chips, etc. In addition, investment and support for domestic automotive parts manufacturing companies will create an automotive industry chain with Tiangong Technology as the core…"

Zhou Huicheng was reporting to Zhao Ye at this time.

When Zhao Ye heard this, he couldn't help but nodded repeatedly and agreed with Zhou Huicheng's suggestion.

After Zhou Huicheng's report was completed, Zhao Ye pondered. The automobile industry chain involves steel, machinery, rubber, petrochemicals, electronics, textiles, insurance, finance, sales, maintenance, gas stations, restaurants, hotels and other industries. It is far more comprehensive than what Zhou Huicheng reported. The content is much richer.

By vigorously developing the automobile industry and benefiting from state-owned enterprises, Wujiang Group can also make a lot of money.

After all, Wujiang Group is different from ordinary enterprises. When it comes to the layout of the automobile industry chain, it pays attention to "big but comprehensive, small but refined". This means that the industrial layout should focus on the overall situation and support relevant players in the automobile industry chain through investment. Enterprises should be "small but refined" by themselves and select areas that are difficult for other enterprises to enter, such as engines, gearboxes, chassis, etc., and have core competitiveness in technology.

Zhao Ye said to Zhou Huicheng: "Mr. Zhou, just do what you said. I will let Wujiang Group support the work of Tiangong Technology. You will immediately set up the Tiangong Technology Automobile Investment Department and invest through this investment department. Automobile upstream and downstream industries!”

"Okay, Director Zhao!!!" Zhou Huicheng nodded heavily, feeling very excited.

Zhao Ye thought for a while and said: "In a short period of time, it will be difficult for our car-making technology to catch up with the first-class foreign car companies. Therefore, if Tiangong Technology's cars want to win favor in the consumer market, they must find another way!" At present, car companies around the world do not pay enough attention to the research of intelligent cars, and this may be a good opportunity for us to overtake in a corner!"

"So a smart car, for example, has a navigation information database that stores information on national highways, ordinary highways, urban roads, and various service facilities, such as restaurants, hotels, gas stations, scenic spots, and parking lots. Then with the help of the GPS positioning system, we use this system to accurately locate the location of the vehicle, compare it with the data in the road database, and determine the future driving direction..."

Speaking of this, Zhao Ye paused for a moment.

He thought that he had proposed the Beidou positioning system, and thought that he would have to find time to inspect Galaxy Technology Company in the future to understand the situation.

The GPS positioning system is an American thing. After all, it is controlled by others. What if others don't let you use the GPS service?

Therefore, China must have its own satellite positioning system.

Since the GPS positioning system was deployed relatively early, the earlier satellite technology was not advanced enough. Therefore, the Beidou positioning system can take advantage of the situation and be technologically ahead of GPS.

You know, Galaxy Technology Company has hired almost the entire Soviet space agency, which is comparable to the existence of the NASA space agency in the United States.

Zhao Ye has every reason to believe that Galaxy Technology Company has the ability to build a Beidou positioning system that is more advanced than GPS!

Zhou Huicheng was surprised when he heard this and thought about it carefully. If this function could be developed, wouldn't it be possible to realize automatic vehicle navigation routes? This function is very awesome and will definitely be loved by the majority of car users.

In fact, many things that were taken for granted in previous lives have just emerged in this era.

GPS vehicle navigation first appeared in the mid-90s. At that time, the global satellite positioning system had not yet been widely used, and only a few scientists and technical experts were able to use the GPS system for navigation and positioning.

The first generation of electronic navigation appeared around 2000. At that time, the electronic navigation map also required downloading the map of the city to the local area. The built-in GPS antenna of the vehicle GPS navigation system receives the GPS data information, combines it with the electronic map stored in the vehicle navigation system, and matches the position coordinates determined by the GPS satellite signal to determine the car's position on the electronic map.

However, the first generation of electronic navigation cannot be updated in real time, and because it uses offline maps, there is no real-time road traffic data, so actual road congestion cannot be taken into account when planning routes.

Tiangong Technology Company will definitely use the second generation of electronic navigation, develop OTA (over-the-air technology), realize remote management of software through mobile communication interfaces, and update electronic maps, applications, infotainment systems, etc.

If you take these things out, users will definitely like them.

OTA technology first appeared in 2000, and Tiangong Technology can be the first company to take advantage of it.

Of course, you can also develop some technologies that look more like black technology, such as HUD real-view navigation, the first car interconnection system, laser adaptive cruise system, remote start, automatic parking, etc...

As long as you go to research and development, these functions can be realized.

If Tiangong Technology's products have such a full sense of technology, they will definitely become popular all over the world.

……

……

A month later.

Fuyao Glass Company.

Boss Cao Dewang is currently receiving people from Tiangong Technology Company.

"Fuyao Glass is currently developing well. I wonder if Boss Cao intends to increase investment in product research and development?" Fan Boming took a sip of tea, looked at the boss of the automotive glass company sitting opposite, and asked with a smile.

Cao Dewang smiled and said: "Of course, we at Fuyao Glass have always attached great importance to product research and development, so we can make achievements in the field of automotive glass."

Fan Boming smiled and said: "It seems that Boss Cao is different from others. I have met many factory owners. They pay more attention to marketing and ignore product research and development."

Cao Dewang said: "If the product quality is not good, no matter how much marketing is done, it will not be done well. Car companies are not fools, so how can they buy poor quality glass. Fuyao Company strives to learn and absorb global automotive glass production technology and production management experience to improve the level of Fuyao glass production technology."

"Fuyao is at least 20% cheaper than foreign companies selling glass of the same quality. As a result, we quickly received a large number of orders. Foreigners didn't believe in our glass at first and thought our company was Chinese companies have backward technology and poor product quality, but Fuyao Glass finally passed their inspection and gained their recognition due to its excellent quality!”

After speaking, Boss Cao smiled.

Fan Boming nodded slightly. It was precisely because Fuyao Glass Company had greater development potential that he took the initiative to visit.

"Boss Cao, has Fuyao Glass Company considered venture capital? The purpose of my visit today is to invest in Fuyao Glass Company. I wonder what Boss Cao's thoughts are?"

When Cao Dewang heard this, he looked thoughtful and did not rush to accept the investment because he needed funds.
