"Is this engine really modified by your company itself?" a strong man of at least 1.9 meters pointed to the modified "big-block" 496 with a modified rear displacement of 9.2 liters placed on the stand, and asked Chen Geng in surprise and disbelief: "Are you sure you can really have such power?"

"Hey, buddy," Chen Geng didn't explain, but pointed to the big guy in front of him with a proud face and said, "What time is it? It's the biggest car tuning carnival in the United States, do you think any company would be pure enough to lie at this time?"

"That's right," Chen Geng's rhetorical question made the strong man accept this statement: "I have a 7.0-liter displacement impala, can you help me modify it?"

"Wow...... Work, you have a good car," Chen Geng raised his thumb, didn't say if he could or not, but first complimented the other party: "I have to say, you are a guy who really understands cars." ”

Everyone loves to listen to good words, and this strong man is no exception, grinning and saying happily: "Of course! ”

"I don't know what you want to change your car into?" Chen Geng asked: "You know, every car modification is unique, and the process of modification is actually the process of creating a unique car that belongs to you...... You need to tell me what you want to achieve before I can tell you if we can do it and how much you need to pay for it if you do it. ”

The last sentence is the point, how much are you willing to spend?

But the Americans' straight-line thinking made this guy not understand what Chen Geng really wanted to express, and he nodded in agreement: "You're right, I just want to create a unique impala, exclusive to my impala, well, I hope this car is more powerful, can be more fuel-efficient than now, the most important thing is to have a good set of audio, I like strong music......"

Chen Geng smiled: "Then we can all be satisfied." ”

"Can you do it?" said the strong man's face in surprise.

"Of course, we are the best tuning brand in the United States, with more than 30 engineers from Ford, GM and Chrysler, and we also have partnerships with Lamborghini," Chen Geng unceremoniously blows the conch...... In fact, it's not bragging, what he said is the truth: "I don't need to introduce you too much in terms of power, you have seen our modified engines, know our strength, I don't need to introduce you too much, then I will introduce you to two things that you will definitely be interested in...... By the way, man, what do you call it?"

"My name is Sam, you can call me Sam. ”

"Okay Sam, follow me......"

Taking Sam to a display case, Chen Geng pointed to the things on it and showed him: "Look, this is the manual transmission upgrade kit we designed......"

Looking at the gears in front of him, Sam looked dazed: "What's the use of this thing?"

Chen Geng: "......"

Talking to the illiterate is trouble.

Trouble is trouble, but seeing that this guy has a great chance of paying money, Chen Geng decided to put up with it: "To put it simply, you can upgrade all the four-speed manual transmissions paired with the 'small-block' and 'big-block' series engines to five-speed, so that your engine will speed lower, and the speed will be low, which will naturally save fuel." ”

Sam suddenly realized and nodded repeatedly: "That's right, this method is good." ”

Chen Geng then took him to a Buick sedan: "And here, we have completely modified the audio system of this Buick Boulevard, and replaced it with the on-board head and power amplifier system and audio system of Dongying Sony, after upgrading, this car has 11 speakers, of which each door has two horns, the center console has a center speaker, and there are 2 subwoofers...... I'll open it for you to listen to, and I promise you'll fall in love with it just by listening to it once. ”

"There are 11 horns?" Sam, who had never seen a turtle on the market, was instantly suppressed.

It's pitiful, although the level of audio technology in this era has been very high, and the home audio system has entered many American families, but in the automotive field, car audio is still in the era of sound, and cars for ordinary users usually have only two speakers, and a more advanced car can have four speakers: one door, and then up, even if it is Mercedes-Benz S-class, Cadillac, Lincoln's luxury sedan is not only equipped with 6 speakers, 10 years later the Lexus LS400 can be sold, in addition to its own mechanical quality and high level of sound insulation, it is equipped with a 9-speaker audio system - 9 speakers are the largest number of horns in a luxury car at that time!

Lexus, which tasted the sweetness, upgraded the audio system again when it launched the facelift in 1991: the original Panasonic head and speakers were replaced with Mark Levinson's audio, amplifier and speakers, and the number of speakers was upgraded from the previous 9 to 11, and Niu X coaxed to claim that among all the luxury D-class cars, our Lei family's audio is "falling roar drops"!

But Toyota really didn't brag, whether it was the quality of the audio, the level or the number of speakers, the Lexus LS400 Mark Levinson's car audio system was indeed the most luxury car at that time, relying on this set of car audio, Toyota's cars sold very happily...... To a certain extent, Toyota took the lead in provoking the "horn war" of automobiles, and a few years later, even a mid-level car like the Passat would be looked down upon if the kingpin model did not have more than 8 horns, and it would not be able to raise its head.

It is conceivable that when Chen Geng installed 11 horns on a car, what kind of reaction would these turtles who had never met - just look at Sam's reaction, usually we say that someone "Ha Lazi is three feet long", in fact, it is an exaggeration, but at this moment, although Sam's Ha Lazi is not three feet long, you can listen to the shocking sound system modified on this Buick, Ha Lazi is really non-stop.

"FK!FK!This is the car I want!This is the car I want!" Sam, who kept patting his thigh excitedly, didn't even want the impala he wanted to change: "Man, how about I exchange my impala for your Buick?"

As a full-size two-door, four-seater sports car, the Chevrolet Impala sells a lot more expensive than the Buick Boulevard in front of him, but Chen Geng refused without hesitation, and he scoffed at Sam's idea: "Man, don't be kidding, do you know how much we spent to modify this stereo?"

Without waiting for Sam to speak, Chen Geng made a gesture of "4": "$3,890, nearly $4,000! Not counting labor, design costs, and tuning, the cost alone is $4,000." ”

If you count the labor, the design, and the tuning, how much should it be worth?

Sam thinks that if you count these, not to mention more, at least $7,000.

But he didn't even think it was expensive!

Is it expensive to buy a set of stereos for $7,000?

Expensive, of course!

Now a mainstream home audio system on the market is between $1,000 and $2,000, but put it in the car, in the case that no car in the world has such a high-end audio, $7,000 is really not expensive, at least Sam thinks, in terms of the quality of this sound system, it is not expensive at all.

"I ......"

Before Sam could say anything, he was rudely interrupted: "Let me go in and try!"

"I'll go in first!"

"I'm ahead of the line, I'll try ...... first"

............

What's the situation?

The noisy sound startled both Chen Geng and Sam, and he quickly turned his head...... it!

I don't know when, the outside of this Buick boulevard was already crowded with people, Chen Geng could even see the employees of his company sweating profusely trying to squeeze into the crowd, but the crowd couldn't squeeze in anyway.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Sam immediately decided: "Hey, man, I'm the first, I don't want your car anymore, but my impala, you have to be the first to help me change it!"

He waved his hand, looking like "Lao Tzu is not bad for money!" - the owner who can afford to buy an impala is indeed not very bad for money.

..............................

Chen Geng never expected that he had done so much preparation for this modified car Grand Prix, not only developing a "beast" full-size SUV based on the chassis of the Ford F100 pickup truck, developing a set of four-speed manual transmission to upgrade the five-speed modification kit, and even developing two racing cars......

But all of this is not as eye-catching as this Buick Boulevard that only modifies the audio system.

In just one morning, there have been 11 customers and Fernandez signed an agreement of intent to modify the vehicle's audio, this agreement is not just a casual signing is finished, it is necessary to pay money, although it is not much, only 100 US dollars, but the action of paying the money itself shows the psychology of these customers: I am urgent!

"Tut-tut......"

Looking at the dense crowd outside the Buick, which had to be connected to an external power supply to ensure power supply because the audio system was always on, Rosemary sighed: "I really didn't expect this project to be the most profitable project...... Boss, do you know that there are at least a dozen groups of people from other modification companies in our family. ”

It's too easy to make money, it's tens of thousands of dollars in a morning's work.

"It's so normal for people to come, can they not be anxious when they see that our family's business is so good," Chen Geng said in a hoarse voice while drinking water: "I'm actually more curious about how many orders we can get after this exhibition is over." ”

Rosemary nodded, a little worried, and asked, "What is our audio modification technology...... Isn't it easy to be stolen?"

"Stealing learning?" Chen Geng smiled: "Car audio modification is not just a matter of stacking horns on the car, you let a group of guys who have never learned how to adjust the sound field before change the soundtrack? This joke is too big...... Red eyes are red, there is not at least half a year, they don't want to play. ”
