Chapter 227 Investment Cooperation (1)
"Engine?" McLaren's receptionist spread his hands and replied to the Swedes: "As you can see, it's just that the processing accuracy is high." Only when he is full will he tell his possible competitors.
The dictionary looked at the engine again and felt that he was thinking too much. The Chinese should have known Rolls-Royce and Pagani at the last model auction. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why the two companies had such a happy conversation with him.
After all, the Swedes didn't care. A yellow-skinned monkey who was cheating was just a fraud, and even joined forces with the Japanese to commit fraud. Although the speed of 385 kilometers per hour they mentioned was amazing, it was obviously a bragging thing. How could Chinese people be?
Nissek's first model is under intense design tests. When Guo Tailai auctioned the car last time, Konissek could not be paid attention, and no one attended. The Swedes prefer to believe that it was the Japanese who launched Guo Tailai to act together to increase the popularity of the new model. Now, everyone in the world knows that Mazda will soon launch a high-performance version of the rx7. In fact, this advertisement is excellent and has a great effect.
Just a small person, the Swedes quickly left Guo Tailai behind and began to think about the engine in front of them. The all-titanium alloy engine is indeed gimmick, but if you really want to play higher performance, there are better options. For example, the engine cover can be completely lighter carbon fiber, and some parts can also be replaced with carbon fiber, which may be higher cost, but the performance will be better.
However, all-titanium alloy engines are not without benefits, at least in terms of service life and thermal efficiency, McLaren's F1 racing car probably made this idea. And it has a more gimmick. It slightly exaggerates the difficulty of processing titanium alloy. Basically, cars equipped with this engine can be justified and a super high price.
The processing accuracy of the all-titanium alloy engine is extremely high. The Swedes even began to consider whether they could order one or two units with Mercedes-Benz and try it on their new models?
Guo Tailai talked very much with the representatives of Rolls-Royce and Mr. Pagani. They are both persistent in creating top-level artworks by hand, and they are also those who practice it. Of course, the more they talk, the happier they get.
For SRX, it is extremely interested in all-titanium alloy engines, which naturally enhance the style of the car. Although Rolls-Royce has been sold to BMW, Volkswagen is still producing parts, and this situation will continue until the end of 2002.
"If we are willing to provide engine design drawings, can you accept that we order a very small amount of all-titanium alloy engines?" Rolls-Royce has not had high requirements, only this one.
Of course Guo Tailai is willing. As long as he does not require exclusiveness, Guo Tailai is completely willing to maintain a long-term cooperative relationship with Rolls-Royce. Although Rolls-Royce is declining slightly now, the old classic brands are still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. They have their own unique engine design, just like Mercedes-Benz, willing to let Guo Tailai earn a processing fee.
The specific price and other things must be discussed by Lin Jiayi. The Rolls-Royce people didn't stay for long, but just had a cup of coffee with Guo Tailai and Mr. Pagani and left. The rest of the matter was waiting for Lin Jiayi to contact and negotiate.
Mr. Pagani was not only interested in Guo Tailai's processing ability. Before meeting with Guo Tailai, Mr. Pagani carefully studied Guo Tailai. Of course, it was limited to the part known abroad, but this was enough for Mr. Pagani.
First, the top-end rx7 sold to Mazda by Guo Tailai. The power and output torque of the rotor engine were greatly improved by Guo Tailai. What does this mean? This shows that Guo Tailai's car engine is far more than just high-precision processing.
From the Mercedes-Benz, Pagani learned that Guo Tailai only spent one afternoon reading the design drawings, but he casually said a few numbers. After the efforts of dozens of people on Mercedes-Benz, he found that the thickness numbers were just right. What does this mean? It shows that Guo Tailai is definitely an engine design master.
Such an expert in engine design and has first-class manual processing capabilities. Even the world-wide agreed titanium alloy with high processing difficulty can be handmade so exquisitely. What reasons are there for such a partner not to be interested? What reasons are there not to cooperate further?
Mr. Sempagani has worked from assembler to designers, and has very experience in production and assembly. He is very knowledgeable about these things with Guo Tai. Although both of them are not very proficient in English, they can talk very well.
Faced with this middle-aged man who also pursues extreme performance, Guo Tailai did not conceal his assembly techniques at all, how to be accurate, how to distribute the center of gravity evenly, how to achieve the best performance, and how to reveal the harmony.
Although Mr. Pagani himself couldn't do the trick, it did not prevent him from communicating some of his experience in manual assembly with Guo Tailai. Not only in assembly, but also in automotive design, there are many common languages. After the two of them chatted like this, they unknowingly took several hours, and the meal time did not stop. They still enjoyed it and met too late.
Mr. Pagani, you are about to launch the zonda." Guo Tailai said what he had always wanted to say at the dining table: "If possible, can you show me your new car?"
"Of course!" Mr. Pagani didn't care at all. In fact, the model had been set and had started production, and was only ready to be launched at the Geneva Motor Show. An expert like Guo Tailai went to see it and gave him some advice. There was no problem at all. Mr. Pagani couldn't ask for it.
However, when Pagani talked about possible cooperation with Guo Tailai in engine manufacturing, Guo Tailai also agreed immediately. This middle-aged man is very in line with Guo Tailai's appetite, has common pursuits, and has no racial discrimination. He respects Guo Tailai very much, and Guo Tailai is willing to work with him. If possible, Guo Tailai is even willing to invest in Pagani and build an independent studio for himself.
Building an independent studio in Modena, Italy, which owns Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati, Pagani and even Ducati’s supercar home. It can be more high-end, elegant and upscale than buying an auto repair shop in other places, especially with supporting industries around it. Even if Guo Tailai wants to play with a new car, he can easily find suppliers. He doesn’t have to wait for imports like in China.
