Chapter 0772 - Passing the Level
After Zhou Jingming and others arrived in Shencheng, it was already more than eight o'clock in the evening on March 14, and after arranging Paul and others, Zhou Jingming and Zhao Ke and others left.
"Senior brother, tomorrow you have someone to notify the city government and cooperate with the FIA's inspection of the preparations for the event. After leaving the hotel, Zhou Jingming said to Zhao Ke.
The preparation for the F1 Chinese Grand Prix was handled by Zhao Ke of Tianming Group.
"I know, I'll make a phone call tomorrow afternoon and set the time for the inspection the day after tomorrow, and I'll contact you when everything is ready. Zhao Ke replied.
After saying goodbye to Zhao Ke, Zhou Jingming rushed home. Originally, this time he went to Australia to participate in the opening race of F1, Zhou Jingming wanted to bring He Yingqing with him, because Zhou Jingming always remembered that when he first met He Yingqing, Zhou Jingming asked her what she liked, He Yingqing replied that it was "F1", and then Zhou Jingming said that he would definitely form an F1 team for her in the future.
Now that the team has it, we almost went to the scene to watch the game together, but because Zhou Yixue is still young and still breastfeeding, the competition site is not only very noisy, maybe there will be accidents, and after thinking about it again, Zhou Jingming finally did not take He Yingqing to Australia with him.
Anyway, in November, the final match of F1 will be held in Shencheng, and then the two of them will be able to watch the F1 race together.
After a day of rest at home, the next day, Zhou Jingming, Zhao Ke and the relevant person in charge of the Shencheng Municipal Government, accompanied Paul to learn about the preparations for the Chinese Grand Prix in detail.
Although this is the first time such an event has been held in China, Shencheng International Circuit has also hosted many other automobile events before, and with the assistance of Tianming Group, there are no problems in the organization of the event, and all the processes are in line with the requirements of the FIA.
After understanding the lap, Paul gave a high degree of affirmation to the preparations for the event in Shencheng, so that Paul's purpose of coming to China this time was achieved, and there were other things that Paul needed to deal with on the side of the FIA, so he only stayed in Shencheng for three days, and Paul left Shencheng.
In this way, Zhou Jingming can also focus on the group's main business again, the first thing is to hold the group's "electrification" project meeting, and understand the specific research process of electrification in detail.
The research on electrification is mainly focused on the automotive battery, in this point the country is still in its infancy, although there are relevant scientific research institutes involved, but there will be no substantial progress for a while, fortunately, Zhou Jingming is not in a hurry, slow work and meticulous work.
The quality of battery performance is directly related to whether pure electric vehicles can be popularized, and it is also related to the life safety of drivers and passengers, so it is not allowed to be sloppy in this regard.
Two weeks passed quickly, and the Formula 1 Championship Brazilian Grand Prix also came to an end in São Paulo, although Schumacher played erratically in qualifying, only finishing in the fourth grid, but in the points race, Schumacher played bravely, combined with the strong power of the Tianming team's car, and the targeted arrangement made by the strategy group, Schumacher finally overtook three people in a row, and once again beat Hakkinen, and won the Sao Paulo race.
Fei Xiaotian, who is also a member of the Tianming team, failed to continue his form in Australia in this competition, and finally only won the tenth place.
As a result, Schumacher is still leading the drivers' standings with 20 points, followed by Hakkinen with 16 points.
In terms of the constructors' standings, although Fei Xiaotian failed to get a point, McLaren's Kuta also suffered an accident at the start of the start and ended up in 13th place, also failing to win points for the team.
In this case, Tianming Racing has 21 points, while McLaren Racing in second place has 16 points, which in turn allowed Tianming Racing to extend its lead.
In addition, the Scuderia Ferrari, which had performed abnormally in the Australian race, finally got four points thanks to Barrichello's efforts, and is currently in fourth place in the constructors' standings, second only to the Williams team.
Winning two races in a row made Schumacher the hottest driver in the entire international racing world, and all the previous doubts about Schumacher have disappeared, and Schumacher has once again proved himself with his strength.
When the time came to April, here in China, Tianming Group finally released the second new car of the year, and the Kirin Pathfinder was shockingly listed!
As the second model of the Kirin brand, the Pathfinder inherits the original characteristics of the Kirin sedan, such as the power matching of the rotary engine, the stylish and personalized exterior design, etc., but also adds new elements, making this car have a deeper connotation.
As the first sedan of Tianming Group without Zhou Jingming's participation, Kirin Pathfinder has made an important step forward in the group's design of "de-Zhou Jingming", and it is a milestone new car.
There is a consumer base laid by the Kirin sedan before, as soon as the Pathfinder was launched, it won wide praise from consumers, and sales are also rising, throughout April, the Pathfinder in all models within the Tianming Group, the sales volume is second only to Yixuan S3, which is enough to see how popular this car is.
After entering May, the research on vehicle electrification has finally made some progress, and under the chairmanship of Zhou Jingming, Tianming Group held an electrification project meeting again.
"After the efforts of the project team, the current research on hybrid power has determined the basic technical scheme, and the next will be tested on our inline four-cylinder engine, and the Phoenix car will be used as the experimental object, once the technology reaches the mature stage, it will be changed back to the second generation of Yixuan S3 for promotion and use......"
After all, the highlight of electrification research is in the powertrain, so this electrification is mainly led by the powertrain company, and Wang Yuanchao is responsible for the overall responsibility.
Zhou Jingming presided over such a meeting, mainly to understand the operation of the entire project, and seize the important time nodes to ask questions, as for technical issues, Zhou Jingming did not do too much follow-up.
After the meeting, Zhou Jingming and Zhao Ke and others walked towards their office, according to the F1 schedule, today's Spanish Grand Prix should also be over, Jonathan will call Zhou Jingming as usual to report the results of the race.
"Electrification will be carried out according to the previously determined schedule, but I will not deliberately urge you to study the progress, but at the latest next year, the hybrid Yixuan S3 must be put on sale, this can not be delayed, otherwise the next stage of pure electric vehicles will also be delayed. Zhou Jingming said to Wang Yuanchao as he walked.
"I know, I'll keep an eye on the project team. Wang Yuanchao nodded.
Several people walked all the way to Zhou Jingming's office, and not long after entering the door, the phone rang, and without guessing, I knew that it must have been Jonathan calling, according to the local time in Barcelona, the awards ceremony should be over at this time.
Before the Spanish Grand Prix, Schumacher had won all four of his current races (Australian Grand Prix, Brazilian Grand Prix, San Marino Grand Prix and British Grand Prix).
