Chapter 372 Reaching an Agreement

Fang Xiang plans to cooperate with Shanghai Computer Center, Fudan University and Jiaotong University in research and development.

All parties are very positive.

After all, Fang wanted to give money, and a very generous one at that.

After the three parties formed a special research group, Fang Xiang was also moved by this luxurious lineup.

"President Zheng, this matter seems a bit off topic.

But you also know that there is almost no research in this area in China, so if we can make some achievements, it will be a good thing.

Thank you for your patience. "

In less than half a month, all three parties agreed to participate. After getting the commitment, Fang Xiang was quick and directly transferred three million.

"You're too polite, Professor Fang.

To be honest, there is a shortage of scientific research funds now and everyone is short of money.

You are the God of Wealth to us. We will do whatever you say!

It’s not a big deal.”

Dean Zheng was also very polite, and his hand shaking Fang Xiang's was so excited that it was shaking.

"No no.

By the way, I want to ask you something else."

After the two exchanged a few more pleasantries, Fang Xiang brought up something he had been thinking about for the past few days.

"Professor Fang, please speak."

Dean Zheng and Fang Xiang sat down again and nodded with a smile.

“Can we train some students, graduate students, etc.?

I can provide employment there.”

Like I said just now, there is still a blank in China now. If there is any progress in the research, what if there are results?

This scientific research must be implemented and turned into products, right?

Fang Xiang has been running around for half a month and has earned so much money, isn't it just for commercialization?

“This...I guess it’s a bit difficult.

The establishment of a discipline requires approval, and teaching qualifications and students cannot be obtained overnight.

To put it another way, even if we have all these, it takes at least four years to train a student.

Can Professor Fang wait?"

After thinking for a moment, President Zheng raised a very realistic question.

“If you can, you should try it.

This area will also be a major trend in the future, as long as we can produce results and form products.

It will inevitably become an entire industry that will not only drive upstream and downstream industries, but also provide a considerable number of jobs.

Not to mention the distant future, Shanghai Auto and Guangzhou Auto need a large number of talents, and with these equipment and talents, our products can also be exported to the overseas market to earn more foreign exchange, right? "

Fang Xiang understands President Zheng’s concerns, but Fang Xiang is full of confidence in the future.

It was 85, and there weren't many electronic devices in cars. Basically, there was just a radio and a tape player.

In the near future, there will be a lot of electronic devices such as car CDs, car Bluetooth, car screens, etc.

Why did people always say that Japanese cars were stable, reliable and had low maintenance rates?

Isn’t it because Japanese cars don’t like to install electronic equipment and use old and mature mechanical parts?

There is nothing new, so where does the failure rate come from?

On the contrary, German and American car companies are constantly exploring and trying new things, so their failure rates appear to be high.

I didn't have the opportunity to participate before, but now it's different. Fang Xiang almost controls the entire country's automobile manufacturing industry. Since he knows the future trend, why not do it? !

It's just a matter of investing some money in research and development.

"Okay, since Professor Fang has said so, we will pay more attention to this matter later.

Cultivate more talents for you!"

Seeing that Fang Xiang was offering both money and job opportunities, President Zheng decisively agreed.

"Thank you so much, President Zheng."

Fang Xiang was delighted when he heard this and immediately stood up and shook Dean Zheng's hand.

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Fang Xiang left the computer center and went to Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation.

"It's been a while since we last met. How does it feel to be home?"

After arriving at Lao Ma's office, Fang Xiang took the tea brought by the secretary, looked at Lao Ma with a smile on his face and asked.

"You know what, after wandering outside for more than ten years, I thought it would be a happy thing to go home.

But I didn’t expect that I would feel a little uncomfortable with it.”

Lao Ma took out a cigarette, lit it, and said with a smile.

"What's wrong with you? Is there anything I can help with?"

Fang Xiang smiled and refused the cigarette that Lao Ma handed over, but picked up the teacup and sipped the hot tea.

The winter in Shanghai is extremely cold, and he finally understood what a magic attack is.

"There are so many things that you can't adapt to. If you don't make drastic changes, I'm worried that it will delay your important plans."

Lao Ma hesitated for a moment, but still told her, but he didn't mention the specific details.

“Then change it!

You are most familiar with our Second Automobile Works and GAC after so many years.

Make changes in whatever way is convenient for you, without considering other people's thoughts or having any concerns.

If we don’t change now, it will be even harder to change later.”

Fang wanted to know what Lao Ma meant.

Shanghai Auto has its own system, and its internal management method is different from that of Second Automobile Works and GAC.

Old Ma has long been accustomed to Fang Xiang's ways. Now that he is back at Shanghai Auto, he must be feeling uncomfortable.

“Sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood.

While the three production lines are being installed, you should gather a group of people and find some reliable and trustworthy ones to assign to them.

At the beginning, I won't put too much pressure on you, just go at your own pace.

You have the drawings and everything, but if you don't have enough technical personnel, you can just ask me and Lao Cao directly. You know them all, so don't be shy to ask.

Once this is on track, let it stabilize for two years.

Two years from now, there may be major changes, so you should be mentally prepared.”

Fang Xiang took another sip of hot tea, felt much warmer, and continued.

"What big change?"

Lao Ma's eyes lit up instantly.

“It’s not an opportunity right now, and it won’t do you any good to say too much.

Just take care of the things in the factory. For the rest, there is still a lot of work and time to prepare.

I can’t guarantee whether it can be done or not.”

Fang thought about the Pudong and new factory area that she had mentioned to Liu's father, but they were both rejected.

Father Liu disagreed, although there were mostly objective factors, but subjectively, his heart was still on Liu Qiwen's side, and Fang Xiang knew it very well.

The construction of a new Shanghai Automobile Group is an achievement that is no less than that of GAC.

Now GAC has allowed Liu Qiwen to reap enough credit, and the possibility of him directly becoming the number one in Guangdong Province in the next term is becoming increasingly greater.

In other words, there is a possibility that he will be directly transferred to the Shanghai Stock Exchange to serve as the second-in-command.

The reason was simply that Liu's father wanted Liu Qiwen to take a ride with Fang Xiang.

After all, anyone would feel bad if their son-in-law prepared such a big table of dishes but their son couldn't eat any of them, right?

This is human nature, and Fang Xiang understands it.

But Fang Xiang didn't want to miss such a good opportunity with Shanghai Auto.

It all depends on whether Liu Qiwen can come to Shanghai in two years. But whether Liu Qiwen comes or not, Shanghai Auto will definitely do it.

By then, Fang Xiang would not care whether Liu Qiwen could get the bonus or not.

After all, in Fang Xiang’s plan, Hong Kong Island would soon become a goose that laid golden eggs again, and he would be able to make a lot of money from the 87 stock market crash.

By then, this money will have to go somewhere.

When the money reaches a certain level, the best option is to take it back to build the country and give back to the people.

Because only in this way, the money will be more meaningful, right?

"Then... I'll just do it drastically?!"

Hearing Fang Xiang's words, Lao Ma's eyes brightened.

"Go! Don't feel any burden. The better you do here, the more foreign exchange we will earn.

That’s what matters most.”

Fang wanted to know what Lao Ma was thinking, and immediately gave his support.

"Then... can we have a few more production lines?"

Lao Ma's expression suddenly became obscene at this moment.

"Good fellow, I didn't realize you were so ambitious.

By the way, I have reached an agreement with the Computer Center, Fudan University and Jiaotong University.

They will help us develop vehicle-mounted electronic equipment and circuit integration. If they need any help or need any assistance, please help them.

If there is anything you don’t understand or can’t figure out, give me a call.”

When Fang Xiang heard this, he guessed some of what Lao Ma was thinking.

However, he did not agree directly. Instead, he smiled and pointed his finger at Lao Ma.
