After the R&D backbones of Oriental Qiyang discovered their shortcomings, it became easier for Duke to integrate automotive R&D resources. First, it was to build a computing center with strong computing capabilities, and establish a complete research environment according to Duke's cloud application method, purchasing and self-developing various automotive design assistance systems.

What Dongfang Qiyang lacks the most now is money. The tens of billions of funds injected from SAL and the Li family in Hong Kong were originally mainly invested in production line transformation and upgrading, but now there is great hope in the acquisition of Opel. This production line transformation project has temporarily stopped, waiting for the results of the acquisition activity. Now it is focusing on the comprehensive research and development of new smart models.

After investing billions of yuan, Sirius' automotive electronics R&D personnel, who are used to the cloud application R&D model of supercomputing centers, do not think anything is there, but for Oriental Qiyang R&D personnel who have always lived a tight life, they are very uncomfortable in the face of this rapid development of the external conditions of R&D.

This new R&D environment built according to the standards of the world's top automotive R&D center is equipped with many advanced auxiliary software that requires them to spend time learning and adapting. Seeing colleagues from Sirius skillfully using various advanced R&D assist systems, R&D personnel in Dongfang Qiyang can only work overtime to study to shorten this gap.

After unifying the R&D environment and establishing an expert research and support team, Duke can effectively explain its R&D concept and some immature implementations, let the R&D team below realize and verify it, let the R&D of smart cars get on track and start to keep up with Duke's R&D fast lane.

Duke has just completed the integration, and Cai Siqiang has already taken over the famous Austrian A.VL engine design company and a large domestic internal combustion engine manufacturing plant. Both companies belong to Oriental Power Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Sirius Company. Cai Siqiang is preparing to build it into the core supplier of Dongfang Qiyang automotive electronic equipment and engines in the future.

In conjunction with the production of standard parts of Yuanda bearings, the supply of basic materials of Xincheng Special Steel, and the manufacturing of Shenda Machine Tools, inadvertently, Cai Siqiang has completed a big layout upstream of Dongfang Qiyang.

a.vl company has a large number of engine patents and has designed thousands of different types of engines for different manufacturers around the world. It has accumulated and accumulated knowledge in engine design, manufacturing, and testing.

From its business scope, its current business includes the entire engine development process from concept to design, testing and ultimately forming a series of production. It has a series of complete and professional supporting departments such as engine design, engine acoustics, engine engineering simulation and calculation, gasoline engine performance development and diesel engine performance development, engine calibration, and vehicle adjustment and matching. It can assist customers in solving special problems in the development of engines and vehicle powertrains, develop prototypes, and improve the shaping of test engines and whole-production engines.

Although Cai Siqiang is willing to win such a world-class engine design company, he has provided Sirius with a high-start design platform for intervening in the engine field. Many high-level mature engine design solutions can be basically used, greatly reducing the engine research and development cycle.

When the two companies were integrated and established, a large number of researchers from a.vl company were mobilized to Oriental Power's internal combustion engine manufacturing plant to cooperate with the technical transformation project. From material requirements to manufacturing processes, all of them operated in accordance with world-class standards. With the support of Shenda Machine Tool and Xincheng Special Steel, a.vl R&D personnel were surprised to find that it was impossible to realize that there were extremely advanced automobile manufacturing raw materials and processing technology in China.

For example, the engine's crank crank machining CNC machine tool has suddenly improved the machining accuracy to dozens or hundreds of times. Although these R&D personnel have heard that the technology of Shenda machine tool in China has made great progress in the past two years, they did not expect that the progress is so great. This is the back door opened by Cai Siqiang for Oriental Power, and agreed to use the best products of Shenda machine tool. After all, most of the orders in the military industry have been met, and now they have gradually begun to open up to high-end civilian industry applications.

As a subsidiary of Sal's subsidiary, Oriental Power certainly obtained this priority use right.

Among the more than a dozen special steels mainly produced by Xincheng Special Steel, it also makes it very easy for A.VL personnel to choose several materials suitable for engine manufacturing.

The production lines have been reoccupied by a large number of advanced high-precision CNC machine tools. A new factory with an annual output of one million sets of engines in the first phase and a yearly output of three million sets of engines in the second phase is being built. According to the construction progress, the first phase transformation project can be completed in half a year. After all, the acquired internal combustion engine factory originally had such a large production capacity and area. Most of the changes need to be made are the updates of processing machine tools, and of course, more importantly, the money is spent.

These things are the ones that SAL Company lacks the least. Machine Tool Shenda Company is given priority. In terms of funds, the huge amount of funds raised by Sirius' listing still has huge surplus after acquiring several companies, which can completely ensure the capital needs of Oriental Power. If it were not for some CNC machining center A.VL personnel proposed customization, this transformation project would have been completed earlier.

Because there are such good upstream resources, A.VL R&D personnel of SAL's company are already from the perspective of efficiency, and together with Shenda Machine Tool researchers, they are preparing to develop a CNC machining center that is more suitable for engine manufacturing, rather than directly using a general-purpose machining center. Although the latter can also do the same after adjusting programming applications, the efficiency is different.

While upgrading the production line, they are conducting trial production of several main engines to be produced in the future, from 1.6, 1.8, 2.0 ordinary engines to 1.8t, 2.0t, and 2.5t turbocharged engines. Oriental Power will provide the future Dongfang Qiyang Automobile with a full range of engine products, covering all new models of the price range from 100,000 to 300,000 yuan.

It can be said that whether Oriental Qiyang wins or not, Duke and Cai Siqiang provide an extremely critical supporting environment for Oriental Qiyang's new smart models, one is the car's brain and the other is the car's heart engine.

With these two things, Dongfang Qiyang is destined to embark on a fast lane of development. Of course, with the new platform Opel, Dongfang Qiyang can move faster and more solidly.
