Sure enough, as everyone expected, the employees of Heiyun Group lined up to buy jewelry at Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Store, which was reported by the media in Hong Kong. After all, the employees of Heiyun Group seem to be buying gold without money, and it is definitely a topic that has caused a sensation in this era.

After reporting on this incident, Oriental Daily once again reported for the welfare of Heiyun employees, looking at the delicious meals in the canteen that are rich, nutritionally balanced, and varied. The dormitory is clean, comfortable, and has all the living conditions for recreational facilities. All the citizens of Xiangjiang are talking about this matter.

Some gossip news even said that there are many men in the Black Cloud Group, most of whom are engineers or senior white-collar workers. Women are a rare species in the Black Cloud Group, and most of them are crooked melons and cracked dates. Most of the Chow Tai Fook shopping guides are young and beautiful girls, and this time they bought so much jewelry to attract the attention of Chow Tai Fook shopping guides.

Don't say that after seeing the media reports, the golden bachelors of the Black Cloud Group finally really found a lot of Chow Tai Fook shopping guides to be wives. Chow Tai Fook's female shopping guide also had a bright eye when she saw these engineers, which can be regarded as unintentional willow insertion!

Bao Zixuan doesn't have time to care about these things now, and with the continuous creation of old German technicians, the Black Cloud version of Knight XV has finally been released.

Bao Zixuan stood in front of this land monster, different from the original Knight XV, limited by the technology of this era, and made great changes in performance.

It is 6.1 meters long, 2.5 meters wide and 2.5 meters high, and its shape replaces the curves of ordinary vehicles with diamond lines, reflecting the square characteristics of armored vehicles. It is powered by a 6.0-litre V10 diesel engine with a maximum output of 380 hp and 5,857 kgm of torque.

Knight XV has a tough, fierce appearance, giving the impression that he can fight his way out of the encirclement by going on a rampage, like a tank on the road. The body is made of tungsten titanium alloy and glass avant-garde wheel arches and bumpers, and the windows and windshield are made of 70 mm thick bulletproof transparent material. It can withstand NATO-standard hard steel nuclear bullets with a rate of fire of 900 m/s and a caliber of 7.62x51 mm, and can withstand attacks with a 20 kg TNT explosive level, and the chassis of military vehicles can also withstand grenade explosions.

The exterior dimensions of the Black Cloud Edition of Knight XV are the same as those of its predecessors, with only a radio and a car version of the Walkman for listening to the news and playing music.

The engine is the most mature diesel engine of Rheinmetall, and the Germans are indeed at the forefront of the world in this regard. The diesel engine was invented by the German Rudolf Diesel in 1892, and the Germans have been proud of it all over the world after more than 80 years of research and development.

The 6.0-liter V10 diesel engine was originally designed to be used with light tanks and armored vehicles, and is now directly used by Bao Zixuan to carry off-road vehicles. However, fuel consumption is too high, if you turn on the air conditioner in the summer, you will consume 53 liters of diesel per 100 kilometers.

Equipped with a 380 hp point diesel engine, it is designed for speeds of up to 120 km/h. It's completely enough without driving a flying car.

As for the safety performance, it is much better than in the previous life, thanks to the continuous deepening of trade with the Soviet Union, and now many controlled materials are also constantly being transported to Xiangjiang.

The Black Cloud Group was not too greedy, and digested all the materials controlled by Ming Moving, and there were many materials produced by Soviet military factories in this car.

As long as the whole body is leaking, the metal part is all tungsten titanium alloy, and a layer of hardened ceramic material is added to it. Even the fuel tank is no exception. This made it lighter and stronger, even against 20mm cannons. The window glass is the car glass of the bulletproof car made by the Soviet Union for the highest-ranking leaders, which can resist all bullets.

According to the German classification of bulletproof cars, this car will definitely reach the fourth class: the B7 can accept stronger shots. Examples include grenades of all types, tube bombs, as well as TNT packs and plastic bombs.

Unless he is attacked with a missile or hit directly by a cannonball, it will be difficult to break through his armor. However, there is also a disadvantage that the cost is too high, so high that Bao Zixuan is a little reluctant to give it to Phil Hawkins.

This car used up 4,000 man-hours, and according to the calculation of 40 US dollars per working hour of German mechanics, his labor cost is about 160,000 US dollars.

Eight tons of tungsten titanium alloy were used, at about $120,000 per ton, which was still smuggled back. You can't buy it in the market at all, and even if you buy it, it's a sky-high price. After all, this is a relatively high-level material.

2 tons of hardened ceramic materials were used, and the price per ton was $200,000 a ton, which was still a friendly price given by the Soviet Union, after all, this was the ceramic insert of the latest version of body armor.

The engine and gearbox and other miscellaneous parts are imported by Rheinmetall, and the cost of a car is 80,000 US dollars, after all, they are all military-grade, and only Rheinmetall can provide them in the world, and they are exclusively sold.

As for the bulletproof glass at $50,000 per piece, there is no bargaining. This is a special glass for the cars of the leaders of the highest ranks. Not a few pieces are produced per year. Knight XV has 10 pieces of glass of various sizes.

Looking at this production cost, the head is large. The cost of labor and materials for each vehicle alone reached about 2.5 million ~ 2.8 million US dollars, which was twice the cost of the Bao Zixuan plan when the project was established, which was still under the condition that the overall price of many controlled materials in the Soviet Union was not high. If the materials were to be purchased on the international market, the cost would be more than $5 million per vehicle.

There are not many people in this world who have the ability to buy, but this is just a product of the nature of their own tickets. Let the workers have work first, and as for the future, they can only take their time.

As an engineer of aircraft engines, Bao Zixuan is also very familiar with automobile engines, but there is no advantage at all in producing cars in Xiangjiang, that is, all the parts on this car are purchased from outside.

Hong Kong's exports are more dependent on light industrial products such as clothing and plastic flowers. At present, Xiangjiang can't even produce a single car headlight, and if a large-scale automobile factory is built here, it will definitely die.

After fully understanding the performance of the car, Bao Zixuan said to Hector: "I have experimented a few times, how is the situation." ”

Hector: "Boss, we have done all-round monitoring, and there are no problems, after all, our power system and sensing system are all mature products of Rheinmetall military. ”

"Those of us who have worked with these parts all our lives have been debugging them repeatedly. Moreover, the materials used in the body are the highest alloy grades of the Soviet Union. Although these alloys are available in Germany, they are never used in automobiles. We don't have that many resources. Only the Soviet Union and China have large-scale deposits of tungsten and titanium, and Germany has only imported them in large quantities in the 30s, and there are very few left. ”

"I'm sure it's the safest car ever, even if the container truck rolls over on its side, the people inside won't be fine. Theoretically, his metal strength is sufficient. ”

Hearing this, Bao Zixuan couldn't wait to sit in the driver's seat, because they are all bulletproof thickened glass, the clarity of the front windshield is not very high, but it is completely sufficient.

Bao Zixuan, who hadn't driven for a long time, started the test drive after getting familiar with the situation in the car, and after pressing the accelerator, he saw the car start slowly, after all, this is a 13.5-ton steel monster. However, after running, the car is very stable on the road, fortunately, the factory area of Heiyun Group is large enough, otherwise it really can't run.

Now there is also a problem, and that is the issue of production licenses. If you can't get a mass production license, you can only drive on some sections of the road as a modified car, and it seems that Phil Hawkins can only apply for it in the United States first, which is difficult to get in Xiangjiang. As long as the certification of the American Automobile Industry Association is passed, then it can be produced by going through a supplementary procedure in Xiangjiang.

The employees of Heiyun Group have no expression after seeing the car, and they will often test the car in the near future. However, after Bao Zixuan drove the car to the construction site, the construction personnel who helped Heiyun build the factory were very frightened, after all, no one had ever seen such a car.
