Chapter 316: People see Star No. 3 with expanded bloodline(1/3)

The executives of Nanshan Group now wish that Cao Yang had seventy-two clones.

Otherwise, many reports will not be scheduled.

Or maybe there are some projects that I would like to invite Cao Yang to participate in, but it is difficult to arrange the time.

Cao Yang only stayed at Nanshan Auto Parts for one day. Early the next morning, Rao Yongxiang was also stuck in the office, wanting to finalize the appearance of Xingchen 3 as soon as possible.

Of course, Rao Yongxiang would not say that directly, but would use another way of saying it.

"Mr. Cao, the clay model of our Xingchen No. 2 has been made. Please go over and confirm it to see if there is anything that needs to be adjusted."

"If not, we will move on to the next design stage."

The production of automobile clay models is not that complicated in itself.

The complicated thing is how to adjust it to an appearance that meets your needs.

Under normal circumstances, the reason why a new car needs to be made several times in the design stage is to constantly modify and modify it to adjust the required shape.

Even for comparison, sometimes two different plans are produced for the same size clay model.

It is very normal for this to take two to three months.

Sometimes the appearance of the clay model does not pass the evaluation, and if it needs to be done again, half a year may pass.

But for Xingchen Automobile, this problem obviously does not exist.

The appearance picture given by Cao Yang is already a very mature shape.

All the designer needs to do is turn this two-dimensional appearance drawing into a three-dimensional clay model.

Then it is convenient for engineers to start entering into specific part design.

"As long as the clay model of Xingchen 2 completely reflects the elements in the renderings, there is basically nothing that needs to be modified."

"The rest is how to conduct simulation during the part design process to see how to find the most suitable specifications and shapes."

"Isn't there a formal technical evaluation meeting in two days?"

"At that time, the appearance design team will report the progress to the project team."

Cao Yang is actually not a workaholic.

Things that can be left to the people below can be thrown out naturally.

Otherwise the work will never be finished.

Of course, it's not that he doesn't even look at the clay model, but that the project will be confirmed by the clay model during the technical evaluation meeting the day after tomorrow.

So I don’t want to waste time and go see it in advance.

Because he has confidence in the appearance of Xingchen 2.

"After the technical evaluation of Xingchen 2 is passed, we can start making the clay model of Xingchen 3."

"But until now, the appearance drawings of Xingchen 3 have not been released."

After going around in a circle, Rao Yongxiang explained his purpose.

Cao Yang is also a smart man, so he naturally knows what Rao Yongxiang means.

"Who said it hasn't come out yet?"

As Cao Yang spoke, he opened a safe in the office and took out a stack of drawings. "I have been continuously improving the appearance design of Xingchen 3 in the past few days, and it is basically completed.

"

"Let me take a look at it first. There are both renderings and official appearance drawings."

Hearing what Cao Yang said, not only Rao Yongxiang was looking forward to it, but even Mi Ying, who was working nearby, couldn't help but put down her work and come over.

This probe can no longer be retracted.

Whether a car looks good or not is a very subjective thing.

There are often some models that one person finds very beautiful, but others find very ugly.

It's like a car designed by the French, especially a hatchback. People who like it like it very much, but people who don't like it hate it.

But the appearance of Xingchen 2 in front of me gives people a feeling that no matter who sees it, they will like it.

No wonder Mi Ying and Rao Yongxiang's eyes almost popped out.

"Mr. Cao, I think that with just one appearance picture, you don't have to worry about not selling the 999-unit limited edition of Xingchen 3."

"I've only ever felt that kind of heart-pounding feeling when I saw it in a Ferrari sports car."

Mi Ying put a hand on her chest and said excitedly.

Although these words are flattering, Rao Yongxiang next to him does not think they are exaggerated at all.

"The coupe shape of Xingchen No. 1 is already stunning, and Xingchen No. 2 is definitely a classic."

"I didn't expect that there would be even more stunning styles coming out now."

"As long as our Xingchen No. 3 is mass-produced, no one will dare to say that China does not have its own sports car."

"I even think that let alone a sports car, if it is equipped with a w12 engine, it may be able to create a miracle."

To be honest, Rao Yongxiang didn't have much confidence in the sports car project before.

The market in this segment is too special.

If there isn't something special, those wealthy people won't buy it.

"This bright red color and wild and sexy shape will definitely turn heads on the street."

"Just because of this, many people will be interested."

"But I'm a little curious, Mr. Cao, why does this rearview mirror feel a little weird in design?"

Mi Ying looked at the rearview mirror shape in the picture, which was obviously different from ordinary models, and couldn't help but ask.

Normally, the rearview mirror moves just like that, nothing special.

But the rearview mirror in front of me looks like a long arm, as if a hand is stretching out from the A-pillar.

However, this special design does not make people feel inconsistent.

"Mr. Cao, rearview mirrors with this kind of structure require very high material strength, otherwise they will be damaged if someone bumps into them casually."

After Mi Ying's reminder, Rao Yongxiang also discovered the special features of the rearview mirror design.

"You have quite sharp eyes, I've noticed this."

"This pair of integrated carbon fiber rearview mirrors that extend directly outwards is considered in conjunction with the aerodynamic performance of this car."

"Of course, some specific parameters need further simulation before they can be determined."

LaFerrari's unique rearview mirror is also a relatively special existence in the history of car design.

If you put it on an ordinary car, this would definitely be a very annoying thing.

But with its cool shape, it's not a complaint, but a surprise.

"Mr. Cao, this rearview mirror sticks out so long. Will the rearview mirror hit the car body when the door is pushed open?"

Mi Ying imagined the scene of opening the door and couldn't help but worry about the safety of the rearview mirror.

"You're worrying too much!"

"The door of this car opens upward, which is what car enthusiasts call the 'butterfly door'."

"Isn't he so handsome?"

Cao Yang is very satisfied with the shape of this car and will definitely drive one after it is mass-produced.

"Not to mention, the butterfly door paired with this pair of reversing mirrors really looks a bit like a butterfly with tentacles on its head flapping its wings."

"The luxurious flavor of this sports car seems to be more intense."

Mi Ying imagined the scene of butterflies inciting and looked forward to it even more.

However, Rao Yongxiang, who was next to him, thought of a problem and said: "Mr. Cao, if this uses carbon fiber rearview mirror, there is probably no domestic manufacturer that can produce it."

Carbon fiber rearview mirrors, even in later generations, have not become popular on ordinary cars.

Not to mention this day and age.

There are not many domestic companies that can produce rearview mirrors, let alone carbon fiber rearview mirrors.

Rao Yongxiang did not raise the issue of high costs. After all, the price of sports cars is high and the cost of parts is normal.

"It didn't happen before, but it can happen in the future."

"Using carbon fiber rearview mirrors has many advantages. As a high-end model, we can consider using carbon fiber for future rearview mirrors."

"In this way, it is necessary for Nanshan Auto Parts to enter this field."

Cao Yang is definitely not willing to choose importing unless there is really no other way.

This carbon fiber rearview mirror has no brand effect, it just needs to be made.

Unlike Brembo's brake discs, if you don't buy them from them, even if you can produce the same performance yourself, someone will always think it's a bit inferior.
