I heard that my boss planned to make a new high-end brand for "Devil's Claw", and the management of the modification department who thought they were qualified to show their faces in front of Chen Geng all came, and there were a bunch of gossip questions......

"Boss, do you want to be a sports car?"

Before Chen Geng could speak, he was picked up by the one next to him: "It must be a sports car, our boss has never made a sports car, X-BO and miata are there......" Before he finished speaking, he turned to Chen Geng with a shy face: "This time it must be a high-performance supercar, boss, do you say?"

"What else do you need to say?"

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

No wonder everyone has so confidence in their own boss, it is really in their eyes, their boss has unparalleled skills in automotive engineering and automobile design, as long as it is the design of the boss himself, whether it is the most ordinary family car or a sports car used to install X, there is one, all of them are classic and the most recognized best-selling models in the market, without exception, now the boss intends to make a high-end brand for the "devil's claw", with the tonality of the "devil's claw", always can't let the "devil's claw" How about making a car like the Cadillac Fleetood or the Lincoln toncar?

That's impossible!

The only possibility is a car like Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Aston Martin, which produces only a few dozen or a few hundred cars a year, to show off its technical prowess and the level of the Niu X.

Chen Geng didn't disappoint them, and when everyone gradually quieted down, he nodded and said, "It's almost, it's a supercar." ”

"It has to be the best supercar in the world......"

"I don't dare to say this," Chen Geng smiled and waved his hand: "I don't dare to guarantee whether it is the world's first, but it should be a car that can impress people." ”

Although Chen Geng said modestly, everyone's eyes lit up all of a sudden!

Who doesn't know the tonality of his own boss, as a Chinese, he has the natural characteristics of Orientals: humble, but since the humble boss uses the phrase "can impress" to describe this car, this car can be worse?!

"That'...... Boss, what is the purpose of building this practice car?" Aniston, who ran with Chen Geng to join in the fun, couldn't help but ask Chen Geng curiously: "Is it to build a sports car with strong enough performance?"

“......”

No one spoke, but a group of automotive engineers and senior mechanics looked at Aniston with strange eyes: Aren't we aiming to build a sports car that is strong enough?

Chen Geng glanced at Aniston in surprise, he was a little surprised that Aniston was able to ask such an in-depth question, nodded and said: "This question is a good question, in fact, I have been thinking about this question for a long time, since we want to build a supercar, then what kind of supercar do we want to build? Is a supercar with strong enough performance enough?"

“......”

Aniston didn't speak, and her heart began to pound: Sure enough, Boss's ambition is much bigger than she thought! Also, with the ability of the boss, for giants like Ford and General Motors, a sports car with strong enough performance is enough to satisfy them, and even they can blow the cowhide for a long time, but as a national ...... No, it's the most talented car designer in the world – Aniston naturally ignores the latter "one" – it's not enough for the boss to come up with a sports car that is strong enough.

Aniston didn't speak, but Anderson, who also heard the other meaning of the boss's words, was instantly excited, and he hurriedly asked, "Boss, what do you ......mean?"

Chen Geng didn't answer, but asked rhetorically: "In your hearts, what are the best sports cars?"

"Ferrari 275 GTB. ”

"What kind of thing is a 275GTB? It's a Ferrari 308!"

"Shut up! It has to be Bond's royal car: the Aston Martin DB5. ”

“......”

"So, in your hearts, is there no American sports car that can represent the image of a supercar in your mind?" Facing the gossiping crowd, Chen Geng's words made everyone look at each other.

It's a real face-to-face.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and their expressions are a little embarrassed.

Of course, there are, from the cheap entry-level Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro to the expensive Impala with a body of more than 5 meters, which is regarded as a classic Corvette series by Americans, there are 18 sports cars of local brands on sale in the American market, not 20.

But why is it that when Chen Geng mentions "the best sports car in his mind", no one thinks of the local American car brands and models?

Anderson said with an embarrassed face: "Boss, you know, these sports cars in our United States actually look like sports cars, and their performance is ...... That's what happened, even a sports car as strong as the Corvette couldn't compare with European sports cars......"

Anderson's words represent everyone's voice, and also represent the American view of sports cars in this era: don't look at the Americans who look down on "petty" European cars, but the best performance sports cars come from Europe, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston Martin, MG These shining names are synonymous with high-performance sports cars, works of art, and dream cars that everyone yearns for, as for the so-called sports cars in the United States......

Well, that's what it's all about, it's just a tool car that looks like a sports car, and it makes people who can't afford to buy Europe's top sports cars have a good time, and you drive your Ford Mustang on the road while you're actually driving a Ferrari on the road.

Aniston was already trembling with excitement, she had already anticipated what her boss was going to say.

Chen Geng did not disappoint Aniston: "Aniston just asked me, is it just to build a sports car that is strong enough? My answer is very simple, I want to build a car that can represent the United States, and when people around the world talk about sports cars in a few years, we can make this car, the brand we created, be on a par with Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston Martin and other brands." ”

“......”

No one spoke, and the huge conference room suddenly fell into an eerie silence, and everyone was frightened by the impossible ambition of their boss: to create a sports car brand that could be compared to Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc., which are almost synonymous with sports cars?

My God!

Is the boss crazy or am I crazy?!

They really have enough reasons to think so, to create a sports car that can be compared with Ferrari and Lamborghini, this is easy to say, there is no difficulty at all, but do you really think it is so simple? If it were so simple, Ford, General Motors, Chrysler, and other American auto giants would have done it a long time ago, why did General Motors create the Corvette? It is hoped that the Corvette can be built into a representative of American high-performance sports cars, and even a business card of the American automobile industry.

But obviously, GM did not succeed, whether it is the Corvette C2 or C3, although the Americans think it is not bad, but in Europe, in foreign countries can not sell at all, the Corvette series has also become GM and the Americans are proud of the "supercar", and now the boss actually said that he wants to do this, is it possible? Is it realistic?

As an administrator, Aniston doesn't know how difficult it is, but the guys who are there, one counts as one, they all deal with cars all day, how can they not know how difficult it is to do this?

After a long silence for a few minutes, Anderson finally spoke, and he said cautiously: "Boss, I'm not against you, you want to make such a car, I'm really happy, really, I'm willing to give everything to help you, but you know, some things can be done without hard work...... Sometimes it's a matter of luck......"

"I see what you mean......"

Although Anderson said a lot of words, Chen Geng was very clear, he paused, glanced at everyone, and said: "I guess all of you mean this, and you all think the same as Anderson, right?"

The crowd laughed embarrassedly: yes, they all had the same mind as Anderson, and thought it was impossible.

Chen Geng smiled and said: "Before I achieve the goal I said, everything is false, so let's take the first step: make a car that looks good enough, cools enough, and is fast enough, especially in corners, so that those Ferraris and Lamborghini are only worthy of eating dust in the back of the car...... Anderson, what's that look on your face?"

Why did Chen Geng ask that?

Because the expression on Anderson's face was a bit weird.

Anderson hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth: "Boss, I don't doubt your design ability, I have no doubt that you can design a good-looking, good-looking exterior and interior that people would dream of, but a car that is strong enough to make Ferrari eat dust in the back...... To achieve this performance, this chassis ......"

"Are you worried about our chassis design capabilities?" Chen Geng smiled, and he worked hard: "You can rest assured about this!"

Why did Chen Geng dare to say that?

That's because he already has a very good reference object: the skyline GT-R R32.

The original R32 has an acceleration ability of 4.7 seconds per 100 kilometers and a maximum speed of 242 kilometers per hour, which is not outstanding, and there are a large number of sports cars in Europe during the same period whose performance exceeds it, including BMW M3 and Porsche 959, but why is R32 qualified to point to these cars and proudly say: "You are all only worthy of eating in the back!"?

It's because of the R32's strong cornering performance.

With the addition of the torque-distributable electronically controlled four-wheel drive system, the cornering performance of the R32's chassis is outrageous!

We all know that running fast in a straight line is not a skill, and being able to run fast on the corner is the real ability, and the top speed is not too high, R32, in 1989 at the Nürburgring Nordschleife in Germany, set a lap time of 8:22.38 and an average speed of 149 kilometers per hour, and the representatives of European performance sports cars in the same period: BMW M3 and Porsche Carrera RS are only in the back of the dust.

What the?

Ferrari, you ask?

Well, at this time, Ferrari is arrogant, arrogant as a swan-like Ferrari arrogantly said: What is New North? This baby doesn't run New North so what about LO's thing, this baby only lets the baby's F1 car go to run the real F1 race, not convinced?

But what is really strong about the R32 is that its engine can almost be called a bottomless modification potential: just by changing a set of Nissan's royal tuning manufacturer Nismo's modified air intake and exhaust system, you can easily unlock 100 horsepower, so that this factory only 280 horsepower engine instantly burst out of the maximum power of 380 horsepower, a little proficient in modification of the automotive engineer, can be by replacing the corresponding intake and exhaust system and turbine system, High-performance accessories such as external computers increase the power of the RB26dett engine on the R32 to 400 to 500 horsepower, and how much impact will it have on the life of the engine, as for those "power maniacs" who pursue extreme power, the power of this engine is 800 horsepower, 900 horsepower and even 1000 horsepower.

How strong is the performance of the R32 at this time......? You guess?

And a supercar that combines the femininity of the Ferrari F360 with the cornering performance of the GT-R R32, guess how exaggerated its performance is?

However, the priority was to develop the all-wheel drive system on the R32 and a chassis that would work perfectly with the all-wheel drive system.

But Anderson didn't believe Chen Geng's words, not only Anderson didn't believe it, but also the "devil's claws" of automotive engineers.
