Chapter 1127: Chapter 609: Life Advice from Principal Ding (Subscribe Please)_2

In fact, the most important aspect was that Principal Ding really provided them with excellent welfare benefits!

"However, the reason I’ve called you here today is not to discuss Chang’an Group, but to talk about our Feiyue Automobile," said a seriously.

After finishing, Ding Yue looked towards the teachers and students from his own automotive engineering department at Mist City Arts and Science University.

Everyone was eagerly awaiting Principal Ding to explain the matter.

But Ding Yue remained silent for about half a minute before finally saying, "As you all know, Feiyue Automobile is preparing to create our own new energy vehicles. The timing is gradually maturing, from batteries to on-board systems, we are vigorously developing and producing them. Therefore, the design of the new energy vehicle’s body structure will depend on the experts present."

Ding Yue made it very clear. If the new energy vehicle is divided into three parts: the battery system, the on-board system, and the vehicle body structure system, then the teachers and students he had called here today were responsible for the vehicle body structure system.

"Principal Ding, I was wondering what kind of standards you have for the new energy vehicle’s body structure hardware system?" Chief Chu Jiannan asked seriously.

This was Chief Chu’s professional domain, after all, he was previously the chief automotive engineer at Chang’an Group.

"This is precisely why I’ve gathered everyone for this meeting."

Ding Yue’s voice and demeanor became a little more relaxed, then he looked at Chief Chu and said, "Chief Chu, first of all, it’s about the design of the body shape. I believe that young people will be the most receptive group to new energy vehicles, so our first new energy vehicle should be designed to look sporty, vibrant, and cool. That shouldn’t be a problem, right?"

As far as Ding Yue was concerned, the aesthetics of the car, its visual appeal, was a very important aspect for car buyers.

The failure of Chang’an New Star, Chang’an Group’s new energy vehicle, was largely due to its unattractive appearance. The exterior of the Chang’an New Star was too sharp and angular, the lines not graceful enough, failing to impart an immediate sense of attraction, and came off as uglier the more one looked at it.

"Hmm... that direction is not a problem, but Principal Ding, we might be getting on in years, for youthful, sporty, and cool car body styling, perhaps the younger people in the college would have a better grasp of that," Chief Chu Jiannan replied without directly taking on the task.

Chu Jiannan knew what he was good at and what he was not.

If you asked him to oversee the vehicle body hardware structure engineering and quality, that was not a problem at all. However, designing a car body aesthetic that was outside his usual way of thinking, Chu Jiannan worried he would not satisfy Principal Ding’s expectations.

So, it would be better to leave the design of the car body to the young people in the college.

After spending some time teaching the automotive engineering students at Mist City Arts and Science University, Chu Jiannan found that these young people, who loved car design, had very good learning abilities and professional skills.

For designing the kind of car body Principal Ding wanted, these youths were indeed more suitable than himself.

Hearing this, Ding Yue nodded slightly, understanding what Chief Chu was implying. He then turned his head and looked at several outstanding students in the automotive engineering field.

"Principal Ding, do you intend to hand over the design of the car body to us?" asked one of the students, visibly excited.

It was clear that the student was quite eager.

Ding Yue smiled and nodded, "Do you have confidence in designing a car body that will satisfy me?"

As long as the design could satisfy Ding Yue, it was most likely to be acceptable to the wider consumer base as well.

Because Ding Yue’s aesthetic tastes were generally in line with the public.

Just as Ding Yue was very fond of high-beauty ladies like Lin Zhirou, Jiang Yao, Jiang Qiuying, and Zhang Yu, whatever Ding Yue considered beautiful, the greater internet user base had no need to say more, in their eyes, these were certainly top goddess-level beauties.

"Principal Ding, we will definitely try our best to design a car body that will satisfy you!" another student from the automotive engineering field said with full confidence.

"Good, you are Sun Xueyang, right?"

Ding Yue nodded and asked.

"Yes, Principal Ding, my name is Sun Xueyang," the student named Sun Xueyang immediately answered.

These outstanding students from the automotive engineering major, Ding Yue had previously heard about from Cao Guowei and had seen their academic performance and photos over the past two years, so he naturally remembered them a bit.

The other two were students Guan Sheng and Li Xiangyuan.

Since they were the best students in the automotive engineering major, Ding Yue thought for a moment and decided to entrust them with the design of the body shape for Feiyue Automobile’s first new energy vehicle.

As for the research and design of the body structure, as well as the safety performance and other aspects that had nothing to do with the external design, but were very important, naturally, he would leave these to the experienced Chief Chu and the team of automotive engineering designers from Chang’an Group.

"Seeing you all so eager to try, alright, I will entrust you with the design task of the body shape for our Feiyue Group’s first new energy vehicle. However, due to the urgency of time, you must ensure that you deliver a satisfactory car design within the limited time. Can you do it?"

Ding Yue asked very seriously.

This time, indeed, the urgency arose because the Mist City Government wanted to see the results of Feiyue Group’s new energy vehicles as soon as possible, which made the timing a bit tight.

The vehicle had to be created before the end of the year.

Moreover, since the beginning of the year, various technology companies and traditional car manufacturers had been releasing new energy vehicles one after another. At this moment, if they didn’t reveal their own trump card, the market might well be taken by others.

There it was, Penguin Group’s Penguin new energy vehicle 6 series was about to come out.

As was Huawei Technology Group’s collaboration with Red Flag Car for a new energy vehicle, which was also about to hit the market soon.

These were all somewhat capable.

"We guarantee to complete the task!"

"We guarantee to complete the task!"

"We guarantee to complete the task!"

Guan Sheng, Li Xiangyuan, and Sun Xueyang responded in unison.

Seeing this, Ding Yue nodded with satisfaction, then turned to look at Chief Chu Jiannan and the others, smiling as he said, "Chief Chu, the design work for the body shape will be left to these young people. With your rich experience in automotive engineering, I will leave the crucial tasks such as body structure design and safety design to you."

Upon hearing this, Chief Chu Jiannan immediately nodded and said, "Principal Ding, rest assured, we will definitely control the quality well."

"Likewise, the part you are responsible for is also under time pressure. We need to finish the car, and even put it into mass production, before the end of the year," Ding Yue continued.

Before the end of the year, this time constraint was indeed tight for everyone involved. But since Principal Ding had said so, and had also provided such an opportunity and stage to showcase their abilities, even in the face of time pressure, Chu Jiannan and others were ready to face the challenge head-on.

"Principal Ding, we will do our utmost to complete the design work for our first car before then," Chief Chu Jiannan said with a serious and earnest expression.

Ding Yue also knew that asking them to guarantee a hundred percent was certainly not realistic. Since everyone expressed that they would do their utmost, Ding Yue just needed to await the results.

"Good, everyone has worked hard. As long as our first new energy vehicle is successfully launched, the company will surely not let you down!"

Ding Yue said to everyone.

This was something that nobody needed to worry about because, looking back at Feiyue Group’s past projects, any that satisfied Principal Ding always received a generous reward.

"Principal Ding, I have another question,"

At this moment, student Li Xiangyuan raised his hand.
