In the R&D center, Li Fanyu's explanation lasted for more than two hours. After that, the discussion about the integration of platform technology took up another afternoon.

Although Zhengxin's current technical reserves cannot be compared with those established car companies such as Toyota and Mercedes-Benz, in the past two or three years, with high-intensity and almost uninterrupted research and development, and active participation in various automobile events, it has also been profound.

The technology pool is still very deep.

The main theme of the CLAR platform is rear-wheel drive + lightweight.

Needless to say, platform research and development. The A4 platform, the PQ platform, and then the F platform, which was later used in military vehicles and F series pickups, have made the R&D center familiar with platform research and development.

The concept of lightweight is familiar to Zhengxin. Since the flagship model A8 when Audi was engaged, the all-aluminum lightweight body has always been the ability of Zhengxin R&D Center to improve fuel economy and handling performance.

Later, after Zhengxin's technology tree unlocked the ultra-light and high-strength material X super alloy, the lightweight design reached a new level.

Therefore, the part of the R&D center can quickly understand Li Fanyu's thinking.

However, the concept of rear-wheel drive is a bit rusty, and among the models that have been worked on before the R&D center are either front-wheel drive or quattro-based all-wheel drive.

But it seems that in the dark, the two major R&D parts of the faith complement each other. The Advanced Research Department is quite proficient in rear-drive play.

X-car, whether it's a low-end longbow or a high-end Chunjun. All of them are rear-wheel drive with good handling, or four-wheel drive structures based on rear-wheel drive.

Coupled with the chassis research and development experience accumulated from the Formula E competition, the Advanced Research Department has put forward many high-level insights on the CLAR platform.

Seeing a group of young engineers put down their mustards, but they were more energetic, colliding with each other's knowledge and experience, Li Fanyu secretly laughed......; Simple guys,

The CLAR platform and the 1+ series program are in full swing.

………

Another group of guys is also desperately engaged in research and development.

It's just that it's a little different from Zhengxin, and the research and development here seems to be a bit of a tape measure.

R&D Department of Nanqi Group.

At this time, it was time to get off work, but the R&D rooms with high shelves and quite spacious atmosphere were still brightly lit.

Several workbenches in the R&D room are filled with a variety of models or objects of automotive parts. A group of designers are either measuring with a ruler or doing computer mapping of these parts.

Between the workbenches, several unknown but familiar cars, which had been dismantled into shells, were being displayed miserably, being treated as hard as the parts.

If you don't know, you won't think that this is a research and development laboratory dedicated to vehicle research and development.

Just looking at the work of these workers, it is easy to think of another place related to automobiles - the car dismantling factory.

"Dong Chou, this is the appearance rendering of several best-selling models on the market, which integrates the parts that consumers are more satisfied with these models.

A shape R&D engineer took the laptop to Zhou Xiang, who had been waiting anxiously for a long time, and pointed to a gray background rendering on it that had not yet been painted.

In the renderings, it looks like this should be an A-segment car.

This car has a slightly longer wheelbase than the average A-class car, and the streamline is elongated like a drop of water. On top of this body, there are eagle-eyed headlights, a matrix of dotted grilles, as well as rounded tail lines and slotted conjoined taillights.

All parts of the car, if taken out alone, are perfect. But put together, it seems to have an indescribable awkwardness.

That feeling is like putting Andy Lau's nose, Tony Leung's eyes, Aaron Kwok's mouth, and Takeshi Kaneshiro's eyebrows on Jacky Cheung's face.

It looks very handsome, but it's so awkward when put together.

Such a rendering made Zhou Xiang grin. He knew in his heart that it was not strange that the rendering effect had become like this. Because this model is a work that "intercepts" the design of 7 best-selling models, and then rubs it all together!

Hybrids.

This is Zhou Xiang's subconscious thought after seeing this model.

Seeing that Zhou Xiang didn't speak, the shape designer Amway said: "Dong Zhou, in terms of body, we applied the overall shape of BMW I3, and then integrated the headlights of Audi A4 and the grille of Guangqi's new GS. There is also the design of the TSL's side lines and taillight parts......"

"You stop first," Zhou Xiang waved his hand irritably, "Don't you feel awkward?"

The man was speechless when he asked, and said, "It's awkward, it's definitely a little awkward." After all, it's preconceived, in fact, take a closer look, this model is still very eye-catching, a collection of hundreds of schools, haha......"

Hearing this, Zhou Xiang was angry, "Fart!"

He pointed to his laptop and said, "You won't copy it!" Give you three days, and you'll give me a game to find faults?"

Seeing that the faces of a group of designers were not very good-looking, Zhou Xiang's anger was even greater: "Look, you basically took these parts as they were." If Ming'er really starts a lawsuit, how many property rights disputes will be involved?"

A group of designers were a little aggrieved, "But Dong Zhou, didn't you tell us to refer to the best-selling models to create Nanqi boutiques, and we didn't have time to do too much in three days,"

Zhou Xiang's tone was stagnant, and he was choked for a long time before he said: "I asked you to refer to the best-selling models, but I didn't let you design the car as a painted skin!

Looking at a group of designers who were stunned and speechless, Zhou Xiang sighed: "You copy it like this, we can't afford to fight a lawsuit! Let's put it bluntly, but a model can be used for reference." On the basis of this model, I will make some modifications that do not affect the overall aesthetics, so that the property rights lawsuit will be easy to fight in the future, and the coordination and aesthetics of the whole vehicle will be guaranteed. Do you understand?"

A group of shape designers realized: "I understand, I understand!"

"Then Dong Zhou, which one do we learn from?"

Zhou Xiang looked at the concept map of the model that looked like a donkey, not a donkey, a horse and not a horse, but definitely not a mule, and pondered for a moment, "Just the BMW I3, this car is now the most common in the market among all pure electric vehicles, and the reputation is good......"
