1681 The First Step to Success
Rory Byrne's eyes widened with a look of disbelief, the old man who had just been angry was like a constipated man at this time.
"It's really perfect, it's a gift from the Creator. ”
The other staff members standing in the control room of the wind tunnel laboratory were looking at the real-time data displayed on the screen, and muttered to themselves with a look of shock on their faces, after working in Ferrari for so many years, he had tested countless products, but he had never seen such jaw-dropping data as today.
After hearing his words, the staff of the Azure Auto design team standing next to him, who were originally a little embarrassed by Rory Byrne's dissatisfaction, all had a look of pride and pride at this time.
Even they themselves did not expect that their works would reach such heights.
At present, their works are no longer inferior to those predecessors in front of them.
Although there are fewer factors to consider in the form factor of an electric vehicle, and there are fewer reasons for being affected by component interference, in any case, they have proved their ability with the height of this design.
In fact, don't look at the fact that Larali and EMP cooperated to set up Azure Auto to develop electric supercars, but they only regard electric supercars as a development direction in the future, as for now, they still rely on the traditional fuel sports car business, after all, they also want to survive, they also want to make a profit.
Therefore, among the project teams they sent out for research and development, the core figures of the Ferrari design team can be said to be very few, and most of them are young design teams that are insignificant to the Ferrari design team, but have a certain amount of experience.
While there is no need to keep the core technology secret, on the other hand, these design teams are less constrained by Ferrari's design thinking, with more avant-garde and open ideas in their minds, combined with Ferrari's relevant design strengths, and finally achieve such an incredible result, which is difficult to achieve for Ferrari's core setting team.
It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a raised eyebrow.
"How is that possible!"
Rory Byrne suddenly pushed the staff of the wind tunnel away, and the whole person threw himself in front of the computer, until now, he couldn't believe what he saw with his eyes, and subconsciously thought, is there something wrong?
You know, the LaFerrari, which will become Ferrari's new flagship product in the future, has taken so much effort from him and Lally's chief designer Flavio Manzoni to become Ferrari's new flagship, and they have racked their brains and painstakingly put so many years of experience into it, and it has passed countless model verifications before finally completing it, and now, such a patchwork team work can actually reach such heights.
Is it because their own level has decreased? Or is it that the current society has developed to this point, and they, the old men, are about to be abandoned by the times?
Rory Byrne definitely doesn't admit it, he's a master of aerodynamics, and he can create many more works!
He stared at the data on the screen in front of him, his body not moving, like a sculpture, his expression extremely focused and reverent.
A minute passed, five minutes passed...... Twenty minutes passed.
The look on his face grew darker.
Eventually, he stood up, with a serious face, but with a look of distraction in his eyes.
Now, the data on the screen clearly displayed the data, so that he completely understood that everything he saw before was true.
The old man is not the kind of person who can't accept failure, he is not so cautious, he can be the backbone of Ferrari for so many years, he also knows that the development of technology is changing with each passing day, and they will be eliminated by the times one day, but he did not expect that this day would come so early, and it was surpassed by some unknown team.
Fortunately, more than half of the team are Ferrari employees, which is his only comfort, at least it makes him feel that those young people are not useless.
He wanted to praise the achievements of the Azure Automobile team, but thinking that he had treated them with a pretentious look before, the pride in his heart made him speechless, and he looked deeply at the relevant staff of the Azure Automobile team who were still immersed in joy, hesitated, and he walked out silently.
It seems that the era of electric vehicles is coming?
He suddenly had such an idea in his mind, before, about the concept that new energy vehicles will replace fuel vehicles, although he agreed, but always felt that he might not see, and this time LaFerrari adopted a hybrid method, in his opinion, is already a bold attempt, but did not expect that he is so close to new energy vehicles.
Suddenly, the LaFerrari seemed to be less concerned about its upcoming debut next year, and for the first time, he became interested in the blue car, which had not yet been revealed.
Although Rory Byrne's departure did not attract the attention of everyone who was celebrating, but it did not hide from Bai Ningyuan's eyes, looking at the old man's stubborn but somewhat lost eyes, Bai Ningyuan felt that he seemed to be able to feel his feelings of relief and loss at this time, hesitated, he finally did not go over to talk to the old man about something, besides, he really had nothing to communicate with others.
But anyway, judging from today's results, he feels that this project still seems to be quite interesting, which can also be seen from the look on Domenicali's face next to him.
As the main figure in the cooperation between EMP and Ferrari, Domenicali couldn't help but be excited to see the excellent performance of the exterior model of the Azure car, for him, the performance of the Azure car means how right the project he was to promote in the first place, and it can also be said to be a very important qualification for his subsequent climb within Ferrari.
"Mr. Bai, we succeeded!"
Domenikali turned his head, said with a smile at Bai Ningyuan, and then gave Bai Ningyuan a big hug in front of everyone.
Although the design team of this appearance is still dominated by Ferrari, it can be said that it is not an incomprehensible thing to achieve such a result, but in any case, this height exists, and it is enough to make Domenicali feel excited.
"Now I hope that your R&D center in Huaxia can make the chassis as soon as possible, so that we can carry out the test work as soon as possible. Domenicali said to Bai Ningyuan again, now he probably imagined the scene of the Azure car galloping on the Ferrari test track, and the excitement in his eyes was almost uncontrollable.
"I believe that this day will not come too late!" Bai Ningyuan glanced at Domenikali from afar, and then said with a smile.
Now the appearance of the blue car has made a breakthrough in the R&D center in Europe, and the progress is also not weak in the domestic research and development of the chassis.
In addition to EMP's own fast charging and the latest generation of ternary lithium batteries developed with the battery R&D laboratory invested by Supermicro Group, it has also developed a black technology for active motor torque distribution.
This technology is that the intelligent computer can independently operate the torque output of the four motors according to the needs, can automatically adapt to the speed difference of the four wheels when turning, and can actively increase (or reduce) the curve sliding state for the vehicle according to the demand, so that it can be retracted and released freely, as you like, in principle, it can even distribute 100% of the transmission ratio to a certain or a certain side of the wheel.
To be able to do this, Loli's role in it can be said to be a great contribution, after all, not all systems can complete 200 kilometers of unmanned testing like Loli.
In fact, Bai Ningyuan's expectations for Azure Auto are no worse than Domenica's.
Don't look at the current EMP is very hot in the American market, and it is also quite well-known in the international car world, but it is only limited to the ordinary production car field, and the gap in the field of high-end products makes its popularity limited to a certain height, which is also a reason for the slow progress of EMP in the European market.
As the base camp of the international car scene, Europeans have a natural pride in automobiles, which makes them more conservative when choosing a car, and it is difficult to get their sense of identity if the technology and performance fail to reach a height.
In this way, the blue car, which has the dual bloodlines of EMP and Ferrari, has become a killer feature for Bai Ningyuan to open up the current situation.
Similarly, the existence of supercars will also raise EMP's brand value and image to a new level.
Based on this purpose, even if it is to burn money again, Bai Ningyuan has to let Azure Automobile appear in front of the world with a stronger attitude.
Due to the relationship of time, Bai Ningyuan and his entourage did not stay in the Apennines for too long, and after finishing the visit to Ferrari and the inspection of the Azure car, Zhang Zilin boarded a direct flight to Africa, and met with the crew of "War Tiger 2" there to start the final filming work.
Bai Ningyuan, also did not return to China, but got on a flight to the United States, where he will work for the role of Gail Gadot......
