Chapter 677: Visiting the Car Factory

, the reborn tech upstart

The progress of other companies assigned to the project tasks is actually much faster than that of Huanyu Group, because what they are doing is what they are good at, and they are handy in doing it.

As long as the projects assigned to these enterprises are progressing smoothly, or even completed ahead of schedule, then the system integration of Huanyu Group will not be delayed, and the vehicle assembly task may be completed before the end of the year.

The next day, Ye Zishu followed Wang Chuanfu to the car production base. There are four car production bases that produce different brands. Huanyu Group Auto does not use the company name as a brand.

The car production base in Wuhu has an annual output of 1 million vehicles, which is the highest among all automobile brands, because this brand corresponds to a low-end brand, and the domestic price is about 100,000 yuan.

The brands here are mainly sold domestically, because only at this price can more products be sold domestically, which is too expensive for ordinary people to afford.

When Ye Zishu arrived here, he also saw the production plant under construction next to it. This is the new brand car production plant of Huanyu Group, and the price of the produced car brands is around 50,000 yuan.

This kind of car brand will be sold to the vast rural areas, focusing on practicality, without too many bells and whistles, and the price is naturally very cheap.

In addition to the production base where he is located, the cars of the other three production bases also rolled off the production line within this week, but the car brands of these three production bases belong to the mid-to-high end.

However, most of them are priced between 200,000 and 400,000, and the output of brands with a price above 500,000 is relatively small, mainly because Huanyu Group is not very confident in the high-end market.

Originally, Ye Zishu planned to use self-driving technology on mid-range and above brand cars, but Huanyu Group changed Ye Zishu’s original plan in order to increase the market competitiveness of high-end brands.

The L2-level self-driving technology is used on mid-end brand cars, and the L3-level self-driving technology is only used on brand cars above 300,000 yuan.

As for the higher-end brands, cars worth more than one million yuan use L4-level automatic driving, which is the highest level of automatic driving technology that Yeshu handed over to Huanyu Group.

As for L5-level autonomous driving technology, it is not impossible. As far as artificial intelligence technology is concerned, it is completely achievable.

But he thinks it is completely unnecessary. First, the hardware requirements are higher, and the cost is naturally higher, especially the current hardware technology needs to be upgraded, which is very troublesome.

The second is that even if L5-level automatic driving is produced, the laws and regulations of various countries will not allow fully automatic driving, and human supervision is still required. Since human supervision is required, L4-level automatic driving is sufficient.

Unless autonomous driving is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the future, consumers are very eager for L5-level autonomous driving, and countries will gradually loosen relevant laws and regulations, and it will not be too late to come up with L5-level autonomous driving.

Anyway, the technology is ready-made, and the hardware will be improved to a certain level by then. It is actually very simple to produce a car with L5-level autonomous driving technology.

After Ye Zishu got off the car, Wang Chuanfu dragged him to a group of people, and introduced to him the origins of these people. They turned out to be leaders from Wuhu, and even a senior official from the province was sent over.

It can be seen that the whole ah attaches great importance to the automobile industry of Huanyu Group, but Huanyu Group also deserves their attention, because it is too profitable.

Last year, the Huanyu Group was a small tester, creating more than 700 billion yuan in revenue, creating a lot of tax revenue for the local area, and more importantly, creating a lot of employment.

Now Ah Province has two major industrial advantages. The first one is naturally Huanyu Group, which is located in the south of Ah Province and drives the economic development of the south.

The other is Fengming Technology Company, which is located in the north. Although it doesn't seem to bring much employment, it brings a lot of tax revenue to the local government.

With the gradual completion of the headquarters of Fengming Technology Company, they will also start to recruit customer service personnel and technical personnel on a large scale.

Job opportunities will also gradually increase.

However, no amount can compare with the number of jobs in the automobile industry chain. Phoenix Technology may accommodate up to 500,000 people, and no amount of more will be of great significance.

These 500,000 people will gradually move to offline business in the future to handle offline customer service relationships. Online customer service still has its limitations and cannot fully share customers' worries.

This requires providing customers with offline customer service, but this is just an assumption, and I don’t know if Yeshu can do a good job, at least the offline customer service business was not developed in the past life.

If it is really not possible, it is also a way out for some of them to become their own business promoters and maintain the relationship between their own business and customers.

When Wang Changfu introduced Ye Zishu, these leaders were so enthusiastic that Ye Zishu was not used to it for a while. After all, the leaders he had seen before were all very high-level, and he would never be overly enthusiastic about him.

However, this kind of behavior is also understandable. Now which region Yeshu wants to invest in, the economy of that region will definitely develop at a relatively high speed.

This feature is not entirely because he is rich. In fact, no matter how rich he is, he is not as rich as the country. After all, money is actually just a piece of paper, but everyone thinks this piece of paper is valuable.

His real advantage is that he can do one line at a time. This is not something that can be done with money. If it is really possible to do it with money, there will be no poverty and hunger in various countries.

It is because it is too difficult to do business, and only people like Ye Zishu who have money, technology, and advanced management experience have the ability to make a line of work.

Last year's gdp data has come out. Although the economic development of the old economic provinces is still very fast, the most eye-catching is the economic growth rate of the three provinces of Hunan, Jiangxi, Hubei, Ah and Sichuan.

These five provinces are the key investment areas of Ye Zishu in the past two years. They were still in the dormant period the year before last, and their performance was not particularly obvious. It's just that they all had obvious output last year, and the results you saw were even more obvious.

After the pleasantries, the ceremony began. The ceremony was actually very simple. It was a ribbon-cutting ceremony for offline production. Ye Zishu was invited to be in the middle, and the provincial leaders were originally arranged to be in the middle.

It's just that they insisted on having Ye Shu in the middle, and they pushed and delayed for a long time, which made Ye Shu feel a little troublesome, so they didn't care about that much, so they had to stand in the middle.

This is also one of the reasons why he is unwilling to deal directly with government personnel.

After the ribbon-cutting, seeing the first car draped in red flowers roll off the assembly line, there was warm applause, and then the leader gave a speech, which Ye Zishu didn't intend to talk about.

Just sat quietly but he still felt bored.

After everyone has finished speaking, the next program is to visit the production factory. Ye Zishu is still very clear about the production process, so there is no surprise.

But government leaders are still relatively unfamiliar with these, especially the production plant of Huanyu Group, which uses a large amount of semi-automatic equipment, which is the most advanced production line in China and even in the world.

So many people are still very interested in these, and there are countless questions to ask, which makes the staff who are dedicated to the explanation a little busy, and Wang Chuanfu and Ye Zishu also have to help explain.

In fact, the things with real technical content are not in these equipment production lines, but in various parts factories. However, compared with the current production lines, the technical content here is still very high.

Fortunately, everyone did not have the opportunity to see the fully automated production line of Baihu Technology Company, which is a master of high technology. If someone sees the production technology of Baihu Technology Company, they will have a deeper understanding of the future development trend of manufacturing industry.

Although the annual output here is 1 million vehicles, the number of equipment workers is not very large, only 20,000, and they deliberately recruited a lot more to prepare for the next factory.

In fact, only 15,000 people are needed here, and more jobs are still in other links of the industrial chain. At present, the total number of employees of Huanyu Group has exceeded 1 million.

How many jobs can be accommodated in the future depends on whether their auto industry is popular in the market. If they can achieve an annual output of 20 million vehicles, their jobs can exceed 5 million.

This is the employment effect brought about by heavy industry. If it is the software industry, it is too difficult to accommodate so many jobs. Even a software giant like Phoenix Technology Company has a total number of employees that has not exceeded 1 million.

After seeing the production factory here, the whole morning passed like this. Ye Zishu had lunch with the leaders who came to visit, and finally he was liberated.

The city leaders invited him to sit down with the city government, but Ye Zishu refused on the grounds that he was busy with business, and said that Wang Chuanfu could replace him in the affairs of Huanyu Group.

In the afternoon, Ye Zishu sat down in Wang Chuanfu's office, and communicated with Huanyu Group about the next thing, after briefly inquiring about the current situation of Huanyu Group.

Ye Zishu asked Wang Chuanfu to start recruiting ship research and development personnel. If there is no accident, he will hand over the technical information related to ship manufacturing to Huanyu Group in the second half of the year.

He hopes that when the technical information is handed over to Huanyu Group, Huanyu Group can immediately start researching these materials, and it is worthwhile to pay more for early recruitment.

As for the shipbuilding process, Ye Zishu believes that Huanyu Group can properly acquire some state-owned enterprises. As long as they sell, Huanyu Group can buy them, as long as they don’t fiddle with asset evaluation.

It means to invite a third-party organization to do asset appraisal, or even ask the other party to do asset appraisal. Huanyu Group will only review the asset appraisal, as long as there is no big discrepancy.

The main reason for the acquisition is that it is very troublesome to train shipbuilding workers. They are all skilled jobs, and the good domestic shipbuilding bases are all in the hands of state-owned enterprises. This is also one of the reasons.

The shipbuilding base currently selected by the Huanyu Group is actually not a particularly good location. If you want to build a large ship, you have to do a lot of renovation work.

In this case, the best way is to acquire. The acquisition of key enterprises may be troublesome, but not all enterprises will be valued.

Of course, he just suggested that. If there is really no suitable acquisition target, Huanyu Group can only take it slowly by itself, let New Oriental Education Group help train a batch, and then dig a batch from other shipyards and put them together impromptu.

In addition to shipbuilding, Ye Zishu made him choose a suitable place in Sichuan to prepare for the civil aviation manufacturing industry.
