When Paul said the name of the last engine supply, the room immediately fell into a discussion, and the members of the FIA's internal committee were fine, after all, they already knew in advance, but the heads of the major F1 teams were not so calm.

"I would like to know what the threshold for F1 engine suppliers is and why Tianming Group can also be shortlisted?"

"Tianming Group's cars are really selling well, but is there anything that can help the engine?"

"Aside from a rotary engine, I really don't know what kind of engine the group can be called famous. ”

…………

The heads of several teams really couldn't understand this wave of operations of the FIA, and couldn't help but complain one by one.

On the Ferrari team's side, the team leader Teixeira didn't say a word, just watched coldly, they didn't have any requirements for the engine supplier, because the team has always used its own design and production of engines, but deep down, Teixeira is also a little dissatisfied with Tianming Group being able to become the new F1 engine supplier.

Although Schumacher's trade to the Tianming team was reached on the basis of mutual affection, how can Teixeira get by when the driver is poached?

"Okay, all quiet!" Paul knocked on the table, "The three engine suppliers just announced are all in strict accordance with the results of the review process, if you have any dissatisfaction with Tianming Group, you can do without them when purchasing engines, isn't it also Porsche and Ford!"

In fact, listing Tianming Group as a new engine supplier, Paul also has his own hardships and selfishness.

said that he had a hard time because since it was announced that there would be three new engine suppliers for the event, only Porsche, Ford and Tianming Group were interested in and registered, and the FIA did not even have the opportunity to choose.

Of course, even if there are only three manufacturers who sign up, Paul can also select according to the normal audit standards, in line with the principle of preferring shortage to excess, as long as it does not pass the test, it is understandable that none of them will be added.

However, due to the Chinese market, Paul eventually listed Tianming Group as one of the new F1 engine suppliers.

Due to the huge cost, there are fewer and fewer car manufacturers willing to participate in F1 events, and now Tianming Group is willing to join F1 races, and there is a huge Chinese market behind him, Paul is certainly not willing to give up this opportunity.

Of course, even according to the normal process, Tianming Group is eligible to be selected as an engine supplier in F1, and Paul's favor is nothing more than simplifying the review process.

"In addition, we have officially approved the registration of the Tianming F1 Team, which will officially participate in the F1 World Championship in 2000, and we hope everyone is ready. After seeing the silence in the conference room, Paul continued.

"What is there to prepare, could it be that the Tianming team can poach our leading driver?" the McLaren team principal scoffed.

As soon as he said this, the leaders of the other teams immediately burst into laughter, only Teixeira was the only one with a blue face, and Schumacher was poached by the Tianming team, which has become the biggest laughing stock in the entire F1.

After the meeting, the FIA also officially announced the three new F1 engine suppliers, for Tianming Group among them, the media are also mixed, the authoritative event media "Motorsports" issued an article saying,

"Tianming Group's becoming an F1 engine supplier is, to a large extent, a concession by the FIA to the Chinese market behind Tianming Group, but considering the various performances of Tianming Group, perhaps this is also an opportunity for F1 events......"

On the other hand, all F1 teams, including McLaren and Williams, have made it clear to the media that Tianming Group's engines will not appear in their purchase lists for the World Championship.

In other words, except for the Tianming team, no team will choose the engine of the Tianming Group, so the Tianming Group has fallen into a very embarrassing situation and has been boycotted by all F1 teams, which is the first time in the F1 engine supplier.

"I didn't expect our own development and design of the engine, so unpopular in the world, the news of the FIA has just been announced less than two days, these teams seem to have been discussed in advance, unified caliber said that they will not use our engine. ”

In Zhou Jingming's office, Wang Yuanchao said helplessly. Originally, it was a happy thing to become the engine supplier of F1, but the reports on this news in the past few days were almost all negative, which made Wang Yuanchao a little frustrated.

"The mainstream engines we have installed in recent years are generally developed on the basis of digesting and absorbing the engine technology of other companies, and our fully self-developed engines do not have many opportunities to appear, and the recognition is naturally not high, but the purpose of our desire to become an engine supplier is mainly to be able to participate in F1 events with our own engines, not for others to choose, so what these people say, I don't think it matters. ”

Zhou Jingming saw this matter very openly and didn't take it to heart.

"The main thing is that some people say things that are too annoying, especially Teixeira of the Ferrari team, who actually said that our engines are toys and that we are vulnerable, and this McLaren team, which is also a tone with a heart higher than the sky, I really can't stand it. Wang Yuanchao shook the newspaper in his hand, and the more he talked, the more angry he became.

"Okay, let's poach other people's leading drivers, don't you want him to have a mouthful of it?" Zhou Jingming smiled, took a cup of tea and put it in front of Wang Yuanchao, "Fighting with mouths is the most boring, so I have never liked to fight with mouths, and when the time comes, touch it with real knives and guns on the field, this is the right way." ”

Tianming F1 team has just been established, no one can afford that is a normal thing, think that when Tianming Group just stepped into the field of vehicle production, there are also various rumors in China, but what is the result, everyone has seen it, Tianming Group is the first!

As for the F1 race, Zhou Jingming does not dare to guarantee that he will be able to win the annual team championship in the first year, but at least he can't lose in momentum, so he has to let these people take a look at what the consequences will be if they look down on Tianming Group!

"This also makes sense, when the time comes, you must teach them a hard lesson!" Wang Yuanchao said after taking a sip of tea and waving his fists.

"Okay, let's not talk about these things here, let's talk about it, how is the development of the Hongmeng F1 engine?"

If you don't develop the major assemblies of the racing car well, you can only comfort yourself if you say these things now, Zhou Jingming doesn't want to be a giant in language and a dwarf in action.

"I can't tell you the specifics, or you can go to Gusu with me tomorrow to have a look. Wang Yuan Chao Zhengse.
