Saint Jose did not pay too much attention to the various turmoils in the country, but he also knew that the time was almost up.
The construction work of two super industrial zones keeps him busy every day. The two industrial parks in the east and west are more than 40 kilometers back and forth, and it is almost impossible to go back once a week, which makes his wife Elena complain deeply about him.
For such a heavyweight industrial area, we can't simply ask our people to do it like the relocation of the breeding company, Hans Steel Plant, and St. Martin Aircraft Factory. It needs to be coordinated.
He hadn't shaved for many days, which made Saint Jose's appearance look quite haggard. However, he still worked energetically, working on-site and solving various coordination problems.
For these two super projects, the city hall gave the green light and established an industrial zone management committee.
The Western Petrochemical Industrial Zone was directly upgraded by San Jose to a direct management committee covering an area of 28 square kilometers. It is directly responsible to the city hall and is no longer handed over to the Boska District for management.
The same is true for the automobile industry zone in the east, which covers an area of 20 square kilometers. It is also directly responsible to the city hall and is not managed by the Alta District.
The expatriate agencies in Alta District and Boska District have also added a special working committee to provide support, which is a treatment that is not available in the new western districts.
The two industrial zones were directly upgraded to the same level as the Lingang Industrial Zone established last year, and are assisted and managed by the Investment Promotion Department of Blanca City.
The problem in the petrochemical industrial zone is not big, and Maya Chemical Industry is watching next to it. The industrial zone has also been preparing for it early.
Several factories of Maya Chemical are here, and the infrastructure is relatively complete. Many equipment only need to be directly installed and debugged. Large oil storage tanks are transported from Italy and installed directly. Special steel plants are also directly connected and manufactured. pipeline.
The steel may not be enough, but fortunately the special steel plant has enough reserved land to start building a new converter directly. Even the coal chemical plant must expand its scale to produce coking coal for the tapping of the Hans Steel Plant.
Saint-Jesse is also relatively confident about Southern Petroleum. He still trusts Juan's skills, and he doesn't know much about petrochemical industry, so he focuses on the automobile industrial park.
After all, the cooperation with Fiat Automobile was relatively sudden. Just to raise additional funds, almost all Prali International's capital reserves were consumed, and it also used American funds.
And just having various production equipment is not enough. There is also the import of rubber and the construction of tire factories. Fortunately, there are tire production plants of motorcycle factories and tractor factories. It is not very difficult to add production lines.
There are also problems with the construction of engine plants and assembly lines.
There is also an entire automobile production line, or production platform, which consists of five procedures, stamping process, welding process, painting process, final assembly process and the last and most important inspection and testing.
Every link requires the use of a lot of machinery and equipment to operate. To produce a car, a lot of machine tools and excellent car workers are needed. This is a guarantee of whether a car can be made better.
The personnel need to go through a lot of training. Fortunately, the automobile school is already being arranged and will start in January next year.
What these skilled workers and technical talents need is time.
Moreover, the Fiat Group does not provide the best technology, and even the best technology needs to be debugged before it is possible to achieve mid-range industrial precision in this world.
In order to solve this problem, the Blanca Precision Machine Tool Factory was placed under the umbrella of Thunder Shield Automobile.
What determines whether a car's assembly process is good or not is not how awesome or advanced your production line is, but whether your equipment can achieve industrial precision.
And because the large industrial zone has not yet been fully constructed, a large number of production line components and equipment are still stored in large warehouses in Blanca City.
For the first time, San Jose regretted not being able to build a very large factory. In fact, there is no shortage of factories in Blanca City, but the new automobile industry zone is located in the Alta District, so there is enough land here.
With the support of loans from Barron's Bank, the factories in Lingang Industrial Zone have been under construction without interruption.
Building an automobile factory requires a very large factory building. The existing factory building is not big enough, so it cannot be used. Fortunately, the new large factory building has been poured and capped, and the water, electricity and decoration can be completed within half a month, so he has to wait patiently.
Except for the main factory area, other supporting factories are not a big problem.
This time St. Hesser let Thunder Shield Industries establish Thunder Shield Automobile Company, and became directly independent to be responsible for the construction of Fiat automobile projects.
Saint-Jesse wanted to find a helmsman for the new company, and Louis Philippe, the general manager of Rennes Industries, was a perfect fit. As the head of Rennes Industries, Philippe did a very good job in developing tractors and motorcycles. .
Three years ago, Philip told San Jose that he once had a dream to work for Argentina's own car factory, and now it has finally become a reality.
From the director of the mold factory to the Rennes Industrial Rennes Military Industry and finally to the Thunder Shield Industries, Philippe made great contributions to the development of the entire Rennes Industrial.
In order to recognize Philip's contribution, San Jose designated Thunder Shield Industries to be renamed Philip Industries Group. The old Thunder Shield lightning logo will still be used as the new Philip's brand, and 1% of Philip Industries' shares will be distributed as a reward to Philip himself, but only Dividend rights.
The management of Philip Industries was handed over to his deputy, Angel Tonin. Angel was originally the director of the tractor factory and later became the deputy general manager of Thunder Shield Industries. He was experienced and very talented. Saint Jose met him several times. He has been inspected many times by the Falcon Bureau and he is a very loyal person.
Just like when they first met in Maria Town, Philip was still well-dressed, burly, and wearing a black suit. At the age of 40, he looked more stable than in previous years.
Sanjesé and Philip hugged each other tightly. In addition to their superior-subordinate relationship, the two also had a common dream of the Argentine automobile industry.
Phillip burst into tears, said nothing more, and then went back to his new work.
"Boss, you really did it."
The Fiat 600 is a mature production line. The installation and debugging are quick and the problem is not big. As long as the factory buildings are in place, there is no big problem.
A test track will also be established in the industrial zone for various tests of future automobiles.
In addition to the main factory building and test road, other factories have been prepared. More than 10,000 parts are used to produce a car. The most difficult part of the Fiat automobile project is here. Why did San Jose set up a machine tool factory? It is to These parts are processed.
Argentina does not have as good conditions as Italy and does not have so many parts manufacturers.
There are also various parts and components production, which require special steel plants to produce automobile chassis, steel beams for the body, cold-rolled automobile panels, and tire factories, all of which need to be built one by one.
Saint-Jesse has specially formed Maya Automotive Plastics Company for this purpose, which is responsible for various plastic parts inside the car body.
Bunuo Electronics Factory in Lingang Industrial Zone will be responsible for the production and manufacturing of car radios.
Lanyun Textile is responsible for the production and manufacturing of car seats.

San Jose ultimately designed a new and simple brand logo for Thunder Shield Motor Company, abandoning the shield logo of Thunder Shield Motorcycles.
At the same time, the original long name Rayescudo was abandoned and the Spanish abbreviation of RADON was used as the brand logo, which looks quite simple and elegant.
San Jose's exclusive cars slowly entered the car factory, and a huge bright silver stainless steel brand new logo was hung on the 6-story headquarters building.
He sighed and entered the headquarters building under the escort of security personnel. It was not easy to build your own car. Fortunately, with the foundation of Fiat 600, the difficulty would be reduced a lot.
In the new headquarters office, San Jose, in his dual capacity as the owner and mayor of Thunder Shield Auto, sits at the top and looks at these design talents and engineering talents.
An important development meeting is being held here. Everyone in the meeting room is holding their breath and being eerily quiet. No one dares to speak.
Argentina made cars, which is a hard thing to imagine.
In fact, everyone has no idea, even though they all know that San Jose is already one of the top people in Argentina, a man who has created miracles.
In addition to the 11 old employees transferred from Thunder Shield Industries in San Jose, Philip is responsible for the management of the entire automobile company. There are also 29 automotive engineers and 11 automotive designers in the conference room. This is almost the largest number in the Argentine automobile industry. The limit that can be found.
In addition, Natalie, who has been staying at Xina Media, will serve as one of the main leaders of this project.
Natalie has reached the position of president of Xin'a Newspaper of Xin'a Media. She has grown very fast and won the trust of Saint Hesse. However, recently, Xin'a Newspaper has been too popular and she has kept a low profile for fear of being hit. Nathalie Tully also chased the city of Blanca, giving Saint Jose a big headache.
Natalie had always worked hard. Before she met Saint Jose, she had changed jobs frequently and worked as a laundry worker and textile worker. After that, she became an informant for the Falcon Bureau.
She also went to night school and joined the Xinhua News Agency as a special assistant to Saint Jose. Saint Jose personally trained her for a period of time. She also taught herself a university major and has been working hard to further her studies.
Being able to be the president of the largest newspaper owned by Xin'a Media is not only because she is a Saint Jose woman, but she also has sufficient management skills. This car project can give her some training.
This girl who grew up in a slum has always been devoted to Saint Jose and has never had contact with other men. This is why Saint Jose is relieved.
Most of the talents in the conference room come from the Ford Argentina subsidiary. For example, after the collapse of the Ford Argentina plant a few years ago, they have already changed careers. It is not easy to collect these people now.
Some of them were snatched away by the competitor SEAM. Now it can only be said that they are some old, weak, sick and disabled. In fact, poaching Italian Fiat engineers is the best, but because of competition, and San Jose is also a little embarrassed, so The people at Fiat have not been touched for the time being.
"Our Thunder Shield project has similarities and differences with the Fiat project, but our goal is to design and produce our own car within five years, and the engineers from the Fiat project will also help us."
Moreover, Fiat 600 production has not yet been completed, so it is too early to recruit people.
Now Thunder Shield Automobile is still an empty shell, and the real people responsible for the Fiat project are another wave of people. For these people, Saint-Jesse fully trusts them and only sent some senior officials to the Fiat large-scale automobile factory next door to be responsible for management, construction and installation.
The meeting went very quickly. San Jose established the Thunder Shield Auto Design Institute and asked these car design experts to prepare new models according to his wishes. After all, the Fiat 600 is not his biological son.
He called the new car project Project Thor, which is classified as a first-level secret. The chassis and engine can be used in common with the Fiat 600, but in the end all will be made locally.
Moreover, this Fiat 600 has also obtained permission to enter the entire South American market and is completely owned by Thunder Shield Automobile Company.
Of course, after the Fiat 600, San Jose began to plan to design two vehicles owned by Thunder Shield Automobile. He personally drove the Fiat 600 and studied this model carefully.
He also plans to further optimize it and replace the shell with a more classic model, such as the Volkswagen Golf, Jetta, Toyota Corolla, and Honda Accord. These classic angular models are his targets for imitation.
These car models are all models that have stood the test of time and are a guarantee of future sales.
In the end, he chose the classic style of the Volkswagen Golf. The entire car has sharp edges and corners and a neat line design. He changed the rounded design of the Fiat 600 and added some new elements, such as seat belts, radios, and the car's lower body. Equipped with high-end version, square headlights.
This was the first car proposed by San Jose, but the Fiat 600 was a rear-wheel drive model, while the later Golf was a front-wheel drive model.
Thunder Shield requires a brand new engine, front-wheel drive, compact load-bearing body, and lightweight chassis.
The shell alone is not enough. It is best to have Fiat's engine experts redesign it. A more fuel-efficient engine is also his design goal. After all, the more fuel-efficient the better.
In order not to make it too difficult, San Jose also requested a rear-wheel drive model, which made everyone relieved.
In addition, the Fiat 600M also needs to be redesigned and manufactured as a cheap and easy-to-use new van. He immediately recalled the classic style of the later Wuling Light van in his mind.
So I immediately drew the drawings. The difficulty was not that big. Even the engine design, location, and all aspects needed to be restarted. I simply created a new brand called Wuling WURIN. The brand logo directly used the red Wuling of Wuling Light. mark to distinguish it from RADON.
He is not only interested in Wuling Light. The future Wuling Hongguang and Wuling Rongguang will all be copied together. Oh no, they are designed. But this is the next stage of the plan after Wuling Light is launched. Understanding the Fiat project is currently The focus of the focus.
The Wuling Light van is not that difficult. The engine can be shared and optimized, but it also requires a lot of time and effort.
Moreover, Saint-Jesus was asked to design two models, which will not be available in this world for more than ten years. It is estimated that there will not be any design studios in Volkswagen. In fact, Saint-Jesus wanted to recruit some design talents from abroad, but the opportunity was not available. Come, just wait patiently.
Thunder Shield Automobile is still too weak now, and he doesn't want to mess around like Rennes Tank Factory anymore, and funds are still quite tight.
St. Hesse had thought about recruiting workers in Europe, but the cost was too high. The money now was not enough. It was okay to recruit workers, but he didn't know them, so he had to give up. It might be slow to cultivate his own talents. A bit, but it will be very stable.
Some experienced automotive technicians can still be hired in France, Germany, and Italy, but they are only used as teachers. Being a worker is too luxurious.
So two new car projects were launched, but they were different from the Fiat car project. The purpose was to successfully develop an Argentine car brand and car company 60 years ago.
Sanjes actually considered getting a more aggressive car logo, such as directly copying the Lexus LEUXS, but he remembered that the current Thunder Shield car is still a bit inferior, and it would be a waste to create it. It is better to lay the foundation down-to-earth. , try to get the Fiat 600 first.
So I contacted Thain from Sequoia Investment Bank and registered some car brands and logos in the United States that had not yet appeared, just in case they would be used in the future. Argentina has also registered some car brands, but most of them cannot be used yet. superior.
At present, Argentina's intellectual property protection is average, and trademarks such as Leidun and Wuling need to be registered in neighboring countries.
