Wan Feng's story attracted the leaders of these machinery industry departments, and they were full of curiosity about Wan Feng's entrepreneurial journey.

"Did you also research that motorcycle?" Lu Changning asked patiently.

"This is not the case. This was researched by our group. At that time, we used a Jialing 50 as a reference. We first produced the Jiangwei 50 motorcycle and then developed the Jiangwei 70 motorcycle."

Wan Feng should try his best to talk about himself as little as possible. He can't make himself look too evil, otherwise some things will never come back to normal.

Although the Jiangwei 70 motorcycle is still in production, it is no longer the mainstay product of Wahou Machinery Factory. They have been unable to keep up with the changes in the motorcycle market, but there are forklifts that have taken over the banner of motorcycles and become Wahou Machinery Factory.

The pillar industry of the machinery factory.

The sales of forklifts from Wahou Machinery Factory are pretty good, with one thousand and eight units being purchased in a year.

Because its own company does not produce products, Nanwan Group still fully supports Wahou's forklift production.

Many of their technologies related to engines and hydraulic systems from Soviet trucks have been applied to forklifts, which makes the series of forklifts produced by Wahou Machinery Factory technically not inferior to the industry leader Liugong.

Although Jiangwei 70 motorcycles are still in production, the annual output is only 20,000 to 30,000 units, which is supported by the relatively low selling price.

Wan Feng once asked Luan Yuanyuan if Wahou still wanted to produce motorcycles, he could transfer the AX100 to a line.

The AX100 can be sold for about five years.

Luan Yuanyuan didn't dare to make the decision, and was studying with the people in the Hou team.

Lu Changning nodded: "That's what's going on. Keep talking."

"Around 1984, I went back to Longjiang to study. After graduation, when my family moved to Beiliao, I founded the Nanwan Factory. At the beginning, we produced a kind of four-wheel vehicle, which was also a kind of agricultural vehicle. In 1985, I arrived

When I was in Changchun, I accidentally learned that a company in Changchun had imported a set of AX100 motorcycle assembly lines and product drawings for transfer. I changed my mind and borrowed money to buy the assembly line. After the Nanwan factory was established, we

Started tinkering with the production of the AX100 motorcycle, which seems to have been launched in 1987."

Some attendees nodded, and some of them still remembered the AX100 motorcycle that appeared on the market in 1987.

"Between 1986 and 1988, I engaged in barter transactions with the Soviets in Heihe. At that time, the Soviet Union was in chaos and supplies were scarce, so I used barter to get a lot of money back from the Soviet Union.

Truck-related data, actual vehicles and drawings, etc., these exchanged things will help us a lot in later manufacturing trucks. When we built motorcycles, we planned to enter the truck market in the future, so in those years we carried out these Soviet trucks

Through systematic disassembly, analysis, improvement and optimization, it has formed its own technical style and has its own intellectual property rights. It can be said that the small dump truck and two trucks produced by Nanwan Automobile are all derived from the Soviet Union's KAMAZ and MAX models.

.”

"The two trucks you produce have their own intellectual property rights?" someone asked again.

Although intellectual property was just a word in 1994, having this thing can still improve the quality of a company.

"Nanwan Auto can proudly say that our trucks have their own independent property rights. We have more than 2,110 truck patents covering engines, gearboxes, transmission systems and other auxiliary equipment."

Many people present exchanged glances with each other.

This South Bay car gives them a special sense of novelty and surprise.

"Go on."

"It seems to have been in 1992. Sorry, my memory of the year may be a little confusing. I really don't remember it very accurately."

"No problem, just say what you want."

"A worker in our factory asked me if I could use the 480 diesel engine to build a sedan-like vehicle that could haul cargo. So we designed and built that crappy truck ourselves."

"Then you will use this pickup truck as an opportunity to enter the sedan field?"

Wan Feng shook his head: "It wasn't back then. The idea of ​​producing cars came about in 1991 or 1992. I don't remember clearly. It was the year the Japanese stock market collapsed. I have a trading partner in Hunan and Hong Kong, Juchuang Group.

Juchuang Group is engaged in real estate. I have a few friends who are doing this in Shenzhen. The predecessor of Juchuang Group was engaged in trading in the 1970s and 1980s. Later, it switched to real estate. The president of Juchuang Group has a daughter.

After studying abroad in Eagle Country, she joined the original trading company of Juchuang Group and had some business dealings with me. She had a Japanese friend named Kazuko Asada. Once I went to Xiang-Hong Kong to discuss trade, and it happened that Kazuko Asada was

In Hunan and Hong Kong, we met by chance, and during our chat we learned that Kazuko Asada’s father is the chief design engineer of a Japanese minicar company called Hengbida Co., Ltd.”

The name Hengbida was very unfamiliar to the participants, and no one had heard of it.

"Asada Kazuko said that Hengbida has gone bankrupt, and his father has lost his job and is working at home. As soon as I heard this, I thought this was an opportunity, so I used Juchuang Trading to provide all the equipment and assembly line drawings of the bankrupt Hengbida, including the equipment it owned.

The patent was bought.”

This sentence is a bit earth-shattering. Unexpectedly, this private enterprise actually owns Japan's technology, not just one aspect, but the entire set, including the other party's patents.

No wonder they dare to build cars.

Lu Changning's eyes shone: "You bought everything from their company?"

"The factory building cannot be taken away, otherwise I plan to buy back even the factory building."

"Comrade Wan Feng, please introduce Hengbida. We have never heard of this name."

Wan Feng is now like a professor explaining questions to students in class, or a storyteller telling stories to a group of people.

"In addition to famous car companies such as Toyota, Honda, Nissan, and Mitsubishi, there are also hundreds of small and medium-sized car companies that are not very famous or not famous at all. Hengbida is such a company. They specialize in Japanese cars.

Make mini cars with a displacement of less than 1.0."

"What kind of cars have they made?"

These people all know something about Riben's passion for making small cars.

"There are three types of cars in total. A 1.0-displacement micro sedan, which is the prototype of the Happy Light currently produced by Nanwan Automobile. There are also two micro sedans with 0.6 and 0.8 displacement. The micro sedan we are currently applying for

The sedan is improved based on one of the 0.8 micro sedans."

"So the mini-car you are applying for now is from Riben Technology?"

"It's not all Japanese technology. There are some of our own things in it. Whatever our company does, we will never copy it as it is. We will introduce better solutions after analysis and dismantling."
