Rebirth 2004: I can make money by writing.

Time passed quietly, and a few days later.

October 5th, Thursday.

Hao Qiang received a call from Lin Nan, and 400 million yuan was deposited into his account.

After he sent 2 million yuan to his father, his personal wealth still remained at 32.1 million yuan.

Store No. 3 and Store No. 4 have been open for more than ten days, and their daily revenue in these two days has been close to 40,000 yuan.

The daily revenue of No. 2 Store is still over 60,000 yuan, and around 70,000 yuan on weekends.

Together with the old Zhongda store, Renjian Fireworks’ daily revenue reaches more than 150,000 yuan, with a gross profit of about 100,000 yuan.

The motorcycle company is currently in the research and development stage.

The appearance design of F1 has been basically finalized, which is similar to the later Yadi DS5 and is convenient for carrying cargo and passengers.

Supports foot pedals, although this function is a bit useless.

Overall dimensions: 1736mm long x 667mm wide x 1035mm high

In fact, its nearly 1.8-meter body and wide design make it look almost the same as an electric motorcycle. It has the temperament of a professional motorcycle and looks very classy.

Of course, the design parameters are different.

The specific parameters of the Yadi DS5 electric vehicle are as follows:

Color: mainly silver-white, silver-gray and pink.

Battery: Lithium battery, capacity is 25Ah, voltage is 72V.

Motor: Equipped with 1200W broadband motor.

Charging method: supports 3A normal charging and 5A fast charging.

Braking method: front disc and rear drum.

Tires: Use high-grip, non-slip tires.

Shock absorption: Hydraulic shock absorption is used at the front and rear.

Theoretical endurance: Maximum endurance can reach 100km.

Theoretical speed: no more than 55km/h.

Load-bearing capacity: Maximum load capacity can reach 200 kg.

……

In this day and age, electric motorcycles aren’t severely limited in speed.

If the new national standard is followed, the speed will not exceed 25km/h and the motor power cannot exceed 400W.

This speed is not even as fast as a bicycle, and is slower than a professional male athlete running the 100 meters.

In the city, it is not easy to drive fast due to frequent traffic jams, so a speed of 20 to 30 kilometers per hour may not cause too much trouble.

However, this speed limit regulation has a significant impact on certain special groups, such as delivery boys.

Running so slowly, it is impossible to deliver the takeout on time, which affects work efficiency and customer experience, and it is difficult to make money.

As the saying goes, "Every policy from the top has its countermeasures from the bottom."

Faced with such speed limit regulations, many consumers will modify their new cars after purchasing them to increase the vehicle's top speed.

The modified electric motorcycle can still reach a maximum speed of 60 kilometers per hour.

Having said that, Galaxy Energy has not yet started developing lithium batteries.

However, the designed F1 has a larger battery pack space and can also use lead-acid batteries, but the maximum range will be reduced to 80 kilometers and the weight of the car will increase by 20 to 30 kilograms.

After the appearance design is finalized, the next step is the trial production stage.

Drawings are one thing, but trial production may not necessarily be successful.

Even if the trial production stage is successful, whether the level of trial production can be maintained during mass production is a huge test.

This is like a concept car. It is easy to produce one or two prototypes, but it is very difficult to mass-produce them. There are too many issues to consider.

During trial production, manual welding can be done, and it may take several months to produce one car.

If there is anything not done well, it can be fine-tuned and adjusted manually, or even repaired multiple times.

However, in order to improve efficiency during mass production, it is necessary to use fixtures, robots or special machines, which require extremely high assembly precision of parts.

For example, this process requires the use of laser robots for welding, and the weld is only about 3 mm. If the assembly error exceeds 1 mm, welding defects will definitely occur, thus affecting the feasibility of mass production.

If double-protection welding is required, the weld is usually about 10 mm long and the accuracy requirement is lower. However, if the assembly error reaches 2 mm, welding defects such as weld deviation and weld leakage are still likely to occur.

Moreover, for sheet metal (usually refers to sheets with a thickness of less than 2 mm), even if the sheet thickness is the same, the plasticity may be different in different batches, and the bending results will be different, which will directly affect the assembly accuracy.

Therefore, during the mass production stage, control of every link and detail is crucial to ensure the stability and consistency of product quality.

Large assembly errors can be said to be the biggest challenge facing mass production of automobiles, which often stems from the complexity of process implementation.

As the saying goes, "Design is easy, manufacturing is difficult."

There is no shortage of excellent designers in China, and they can design complex products such as airplanes, but the real challenge lies in manufacturing.

Starting from the initial procurement of materials, you may encounter many difficulties.

Even if you have the materials, you still need to consider whether you have the corresponding manufacturing equipment and processes.

This is also why entrepreneurs like Musk are generous in showing the rocket production process to the public, because even if the design drawings are provided, it is extremely difficult to actually manufacture it.

Back then, when the Polar Bear disintegrated, many design drawings were obtained in China, but many products still could not be successfully manufactured.

Taking the welding process of thick plates on aircraft carrier decks as an example, we lack construction experience in this area and need to face many problems such as how to control welding deformation, cold cracks, and stress relief.

Therefore, the trial production stage of F1 is destined to be a long and delicate process, which requires continuous optimization of drawings to ensure the feasibility of the design and the convenience of subsequent manufacturing processes.

After the trial production is completed, it is still necessary to undergo multiple test runs and adjustments to ensure the quality and performance of the final product.

When the trial production stage is truly over, the manufacturing of tooling and fixtures and small-batch production will begin.

At this stage, process adjustments become particularly important, and drawing modifications must be made with caution.

Because major changes in drawings may cause the already manufactured tooling and fixtures to be scrapped, resulting in unnecessary losses.

Fortunately, Hao Qiang's motorcycle company purchases many parts from outside, which reduces a lot of trial production workload.

Friday morning, May 27th.

Hao Qiang brought his technical deputy manager Zheng Yi and other subordinates to Wang Fuyang's motorcycle parts factory.

A month ago, the two met because of a road collapse, but they had never visited each other. Wang Fuyang called Hao Qiang once and asked him to come to his company for tea and chat when he was free.

Before coming, Hao Qiang made a phone call and said that he was bringing people over to visit and learn, and asked if he was free, but did not mention anything about cooperation.

I haven't even visited their factory and don't know their background, so it's impossible for me to make any promises.

Wang Fuyang happily agreed and asked the Human Resources Department to hang a banner at the gate that read "Warmly welcome Mr. Hao to the company."

Hao Qiang drove a Porsche and his subordinate drove an Audi A6L. The two cars arrived at his Fuyang Industrial Company in Yuecheng and were slightly surprised when they saw the banner.

"Mr. Hao, warm welcome!" Wang Fuyang saw Hao Qiang and his men coming, and went up to greet them in person with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Wang, you are too polite. We came here mainly to learn from you." Hao Qiang shook hands with him and then introduced the subordinates around him.

After the two sides exchanged greetings, Wang Fuyang led Hao Qiang and others into a spacious conference room.

A subordinate first gave a detailed introduction to their company's situation through PPT, allowing Hao Qiang and others to have a preliminary understanding of their company's business.

Their company's business scope covers the wholesale of auto parts, as well as the production and wholesale of motorcycles and spare parts.

In terms of motorcycle production, they focus on the production of brake parts, shock absorbers and other components.

After listening to the other party's introduction, Hao Qiang also briefly outlined the situation of his motorcycle company.

He made it clear that they are currently looking for suppliers of motorcycle spare parts, the products are in the development stage, and they have invested tens of millions of yuan to build an 80-acre factory.

Wang Fuyang couldn't imagine that Hao Qiang's investment scale was so large. If the cooperation between the two parties was successful, it would be a big business for him.

After the introduction in the conference room, Wang Fuyang led Hao Qiang and others to visit the company's production workshop.

After a tour, Hao Qiang had a deeper understanding of Wang Fuyang's company.

The two parties returned to the conference room to formally discuss cooperation, and at the beginning they discussed the customization of R&D product parts.

If the requirements are met, the two parties will discuss the details after mass production begins.

Hao Qiang came here this time mainly to bring his subordinates to establish relationships and pave the way for future cooperation. He will not need to participate in the subsequent customization work.

Hao Qiang doesn't really participate in the customization of other spare parts; he only looks at the results.

He will come forward when the two sides discuss long-term cooperation.

Currently, the development of future motorcycles is proceeding step by step and has encountered many difficulties.

Hao Qiang requested that the trial production of the product be completed before this year's National Day, and that small-batch production be put into operation at the beginning of next year so that the product can be launched on the market as soon as possible.

Time is very tight.
