Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong - Chapter 1205
After inspecting the workshop, Shi Zhijian came to the “Planning Department” of the company for the first time.
The one in charge of the Planning Department is the Minister “Messef” who was introduced earlier.
Compared with the jingles in the workshop, the planning department is extraordinarily clean. Many white-collar workers are working in the office. When they see a large group of people surrounded by Shi Zhijian, they subconsciously stop their work and look up at Shi Zhijian.
“This is the boss of our company, Mr. Shi Zhijian!” Director Green respectfully introduced to everyone.
Those white-collar workers got up one after another and nodded towards Shi Zhijian to say hello.
Shi Zhijian didn’t say anything, just waved his hand to signal everyone to continue working and not be influenced by him.
Everyone sat down again and continued to work hard.
Shi Zhijian wandered around in the planning department to visit.
When seeing the shape design of the new car, Messef immediately explained: “This is the shape designed by our company based on the most popular models on the market. The body curve is smooth and the main business style.”
“It looks familiar…” Shi Zhijian put his hands behind his back and frowned.
Messef hurriedly “coughed” twice: “It’s somewhat similar to the model BMW launched this year. Of course, it’s just a little bit similar!”
“Isn’t that plagiarism?” Shi Zhijian turned his head to look at him, “You know, the thing I hate the most in my life as a boss is plagiarism!”
Someone who was a habitual offender of “plagiarism” was righteous at this moment, and only made Minister Messef tremble with fear.
“Of course, if we can do better in details, then we can turn passive into active and let other companies’ models steal us!”
“Uh?”
Everyone’s brains couldn’t come back, and they felt that Shi Zhijian’s thinking was jumping too fast, and they couldn’t keep up.
“Don’t understand what I’m saying?” Shi Zhijian felt that these old German brains were too stupid. “It’s just the details, everyone looks similar, but if we do the details well enough, customers will be preconceived and think that we are the authentic ones! That sentence As the saying goes, details determine success or failure!”
Afraid of clap clap!
The people around immediately applauded.
Director Green said excitedly: “The details determine success or failure! Boss, your words are so enlightening, it makes me feel stunned!”
“Yes! Yes!” Minister Messef also clapped vigorously, his palms red, “I think this sentence is a wise saying! No, I must have someone record it and post it in the office!”
Shi Zhijian looked excited and excited everyone. For the first time, he felt that these Germans were not as old-fashioned as they were in the legend. Look at this flattery!
“Also!” Shi Zhijian raised a finger, “I still support originality fundamentally! You may have heard that electric cars are the original creation of our myth, as well as karaoke, Walkman, etc., all of which are our myths. Original!”
“Wow, that’s amazing!”
“Yeah, that’s great!”
“Only someone like the boss can bring out such a good team!”
These old Germans have already felt the pulse of the Chinese boss, that is, they like to listen well.
Shi Zhijian is not used to them, “You say I am excellent, where am I better?”
“this—-”
“You say I’m amazing, what’s so amazing about me?”
“Cough, cough, cough!”
The crowd began to pretend to be deaf and dumb.
They are all simple and honest Germans. The rigorous spirit of the Germans makes them spit out this kind of sloppy beard, but when they become addicted, Shi Zhijian hits them again. They feel that it is very difficult to be a human being!
“Director Green, talk about it!”
“Ahem, this… If you can invent a new product like an electric car, I think your name, boss, is enough to go down in history!”
“Yes! Yes! This is an innovation!”
“Running electric cars all over the street in the future will definitely be a wonder of the world!”
The crowd patted the horse again.
When Shi Zhijian heard this, he felt a little relieved.
Indeed, the concept of electric vehicles was proposed, and its realization is also the result of his efforts. It is not an exaggeration to say that he has changed the world!
But just when Shi Zhijian was feeling these old German touts, he found that there were bearded faces in the crowd, a look of bitterness and hatred, and especially the corners of his mouth showed a trace of disdain for himself!
Shi Zhijian pointed at the man and said, “Tell me, am I very good? I’m amazing?”
The bearded man held his face and looked at Shi Zhijian without saying a word.
Director Green stepped forward and kicked the other party’s ass: “The boss asked you something, why didn’t you answer? You’re dumb?”
After scolding the bearded man, Director Green turned his head and apologized to Shi Zhijian: “He is from the planning department, I don’t know him very well! Messef, how did you teach your subordinates?”
Messef was also frightened, and also stepped forward and kicked the bearded man: “You **** are trying to cause me trouble!” He turned around and explained to Shi Zhijian: “He is an employee who just came to our planning department, and his name is John Schumacher. !”
“Uh, Schumacher?” Shi Zhijian is very sensitive to this name. The last German “Car God” family was this famous name.
So Shi Zhijian became interested in Beard, walked over and looked at each other with sharp eyes.
The bearded man didn’t even have stage fright, and looked at Shi Zhijian: “My name is John Schumacher!”
“I know, your minister said it just now!” Shi Zhijian stared at each other, “What I’m curious about is that you don’t seem to agree with what others think of me!”
“Yes!” The beard replied succinctly.
“Damn it! You want to rebel!”
Green and others never thought that John the Bearded would dare to talk to Shi Zhijian like this, and his face turned pale for a while.
“Why?” Shi Zhijian continued to ask.
“Because you don’t deserve it!”
“dying!”
“John, how dare you say such a thing!”
Green and others only saw Shi Zhijian’s “tiger power” not long ago, and he would fire people at every turn and get them out of the way. If this bearded man dared to talk like this, wouldn’t he be courting death?
Shi Zhijian was also irritated by the bearded John. He held back his anger and asked with a smile, “Why? Where am I not worthy?”
“You thought you changed the world by inventing the electric car? Wrong! And terribly wrong!” exclaimed the bearded Johann Schumacher, “First of all, because you invented the electric car, the engine department in our factory had to be disbanded. , because electric cars don’t need such a traditional engine at all, all they need is a huge battery! That’s how my friend Pietro was fired! Pity he is a father of three, and now he has to stay at home because of unemployment and receive a poor Even if it’s cold outside, he has to go to the construction site to work as a coolie, pick up cardboard from a shop and sell it for money… He is a dignified skilled worker, who was hired by our factory from BMW at a high salary!”
Shi Zhijian was stunned, he really didn’t know these things.
“Since he understands technology, he can go to other car companies, so he won’t be so down, right?” Shi Zhijian retorted.
Bearded John showed a hint of sarcasm at Shi Zhijian.
Green and others next to him are scared to death, dare to speak to the boss with this expression? Don’t pull us back even if you die!
“Don’t you know? Our German tradition is loyalty, and not betrayal! A person in a company must be loyal for a lifetime!” Bearded John continued, “Pietro once committed suicide for the sake of the family’s children. Big mistake! As an excellent mechanic, Pietro is good at engine design and maintenance. At first, Bentley paid three times the price to dig him out of BMW, so BMW told the public that if anyone dares to hire him in the future, It’s against BMW!”
“What about now?” Bearded John’s ridicule to Shi Zhijian was even more serious, “Because of your great electric vehicle plan, you have to lay off excellent technicians like Pietro and let them go home to eat crumbs, do you think you Isn’t it great?”
“John, enough!” Green said angrily.
“You are not allowed to speak to the boss in such a tone again!” Messef also said angrily.
Everyone else’s face changed greatly with fright, and they felt that the bearded man was playing with fire!
Shi Zhijian was speechless by the beard, and tried his best to squeeze a smile: “Okay, I admit that this is a very serious problem… What else? You continue, I listen!”
“John, please, stop talking!”
“John, stop it!”
Bearded John ignored the pleadings of Green and the others, his eyes were burning, and he continued to confront Shi Zhijian: “And… your electric car plan is actually bad!”
Shi Zhijian’s anger surged! I almost couldn’t help freaking out!
This is the worst thing he has heard since he created an electric car! All along, everyone has praised the electric car he created, saying it is a great invention, and no one has ever dared to criticize him!
Shi Zhijian’s tone was cold: “Is it bad? Can you explain it?”
With Shi Zhijian’s tone, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly cooled down to freezing point!
Green and the others were too frightened to speak.
Others had sweaty palms.
Bearded John: “Do you need an explanation? Well, I’ll explain it to you! If the electric bicycle is a great invention, I can barely agree with this! After all, it frees people’s legs! It’s convenient for many people! But electric bicycles Car—Haha!” Two sneers, “If it is normal, it will be fine. It can indeed run on the road in place of the current car, but it has a huge Achilles heel! That is battery life—-”
Shi Zhijian was stunned, as if thinking of something, his expression became strange.
“Especially in extreme weather like Germany, the temperature drops too fast, and the battery life is weakened. Ordinary cars can run on refueling, but electric cars need to be constantly charged. Now the problem comes again? Where is the charging pile you designed?”
Shi Zhijian gasped, realizing for the first time that he had made a big mistake!
In the last life, the biggest weakness of electric vehicles was battery life and charging!
When Shi Zhijian was ambitious to enter the automotive field, it was the time when electric bicycles were popular with the British and European people, so no one pointed out how much hidden danger he would have in doing so.
When the electric vehicle production line was refitted, the management and workers just waited for production to start, so that they could get their wages every week and every month, without thinking about these issues.
In other words, some people don’t dare to bring it up easily because they are afraid of losing their jobs again.
“Of course, if you are really great, Mr. Shi, you can set up charging piles all over Germany, and you can increase the battery storage capacity, but then the manufacturing cost will be greatly increased, or even unprofitable! Mr. Shi, Boss Shi , are you willing to do this?” Bearded John asked Shi Zhijian an embarrassing question.
At this moment, Director Green and others also changed from being afraid and nervous just now to thinking——
Yeah, it seems like this EV is really problematic.
Shi Zhijian was sweating profusely!
He was dazzled by the victory, and it was only now that he remembered that this is Europe, and many extreme cold weather in Europe is still suitable for gasoline and diesel vehicles, not electric vehicles!
“Pu, your mother, the steps are too big!” Shi Zhijian said to himself in Chinese.
Everyone couldn’t understand and looked at the translator.
The translator was also stunned for a moment: “He means…” How to translate? “Take a leg, yes! It’s a kick! The movement of the kick is too big, and then that ball, it hurts!”
The translator is covering his crotch!
Everyone seems to understand.
“You said it very well!” Shi Zhijian looked at John the Bearded, “I’ve been taught!” He turned his head and left.
“Uh, what’s going on?”
Everyone was surprised by Shi Zhijian’s reaction.
Beard was ready to “see death as home”, but Shi Zhijian left with only one sentence.
Director Green looked at the bearded man who had almost “sacrificed heroically” and pointed at him: “You, you are so courageous!” After speaking, he quickly chased after Shi Zhijian.
Minister Messef glared at the bearded man angrily: “You are so good, you almost killed us all! Humph!” He snorted and left.
The others passed by the bearded John and shook their heads, with expressions like “You’re dead”, “You’re finished”, and “Wait for you to be fired”.
…
“Mr. Stone!”
“Boss Stone!”
Director Green caught up with Shi Zhijian and hurriedly explained.
“The bearded John just now was actually a temporary worker in our factory!”
“Yes! Yes! He used to run a kart park, and his business went bankrupt. That’s why he applied for a job here–hasn’t been hired yet! What he said was all nonsense. Don’t worry about it!”
“Temporary worker? How did I hear that he is a regular worker?” Shi Zhijian said coldly.
“Cough, you must have stopped wrong!”
“We’ll fire him today!”
“No!” Shi Zhijian stopped on the snow~www.mtlnovel.com~ Green and the others who followed him hurriedly stopped!
Some of the people who followed in a hurry behind them were unstable in the snow, and stumbled a few times and fell directly!
People saw it, but they didn’t dare to laugh, they all held back.
Shi Zhijian looked back at everyone.
Green and the others immediately stood up and waited for the training.
Those who fell hurriedly got up, not even daring to pat the snow stained on their bodies, they stood up straight and listened to what Shi Zhijian had to say.
“Make me an office in the factory!” Shi Zhijian said, “I have to work overtime tonight!”
“Eh?” Green and the others looked at each other, “Work overtime, what overtime?”
Shi Zhijian didn’t explain at all. He waved his hand and shouted: “Now I’ll give you a task to map out all the bus routes in Munich, no, all of Germany! Immediately, immediately!”
