In fact, according to the final announced time of the review team, the news of the engine selection results on time on the fifteenth day after the fourteenth day was announced, this moment is the most worrying, whether it is a newcomer like Southwest Science and Industry - MTU, or a veteran giant such as Rolls-Royce and GM, everyone is also looking forward to who will spend such a big project.

This time the announcement was not made by the review team, but by the MPC-75 chief engineer system to announce the results, after the Ma chief engineer entered the field, the deputy chief engineer of MBB, and some other aspects of the deputy chief engineer. Tang Changhong also participated in this press conference, he knew the final result, and after walking in, he gave Yang Hui a reassuring expression very vaguely.

In this way, Yang Hui, who was still apprehensive, was the first to calm down at this moment, he knew that his old classmate would definitely not lie to himself, this time the CG-2000 engine seemed to be no problem, but after savoring the expression, how could there be another taste?

Although he already knew some news, Yang Hui did not choose to share it with Rouse, at this time there is no need to say anything more, if the CG-2000 engine bidders here are too confident, it is easy to make the other two bidders have some bad ideas.

In this way, still in the expectation of everyone, Chief Master Ma announced the results of this bidding.

"The first thing we eliminated in our bidding project was the BR-715 engine brought by the Rolls-Royce-BMW-Hongqi joint team, and as GM said, the new technology of the BR-715 engine did not bring much performance gain. On the contrary, the manufacturing cost and development risk of the engine increase, in view of these reasons. We chose to abandon the BR-715 engine first. ”

As soon as Chief Master Ma finished speaking, Luo Luo seemed to have expected this result. But in the end, after hearing the news announcement, his face was still quickly gloomy, and it seemed that this was another fiasco for Rolls-Royce, especially the person in charge of Rolls-Royce, who led the team, he knew that after going back this time, Rolls-Royce would need someone to be responsible for this failure

For the sake of his own future, he still asked again with some reluctance.

"Is there really no way we can go any further? The price can continue to be discussed in the future, everything is good to say, everything"

Not only is Rolly's face like ashes, but BMW and Hongqi Factory are also in poor shape. BMW originally thought that this meeting would be a godsend for BMW to return to the aero engine manufacturing industry, and Hongqi Factory also thought that this meeting would be the first step taken by Hongqi Factory after finding its own right path, but the facts told them that this time it was indeed a failure.

Looking at the decadent and depressed appearance of the BR-715 engine development team, Chief Engineer Ma can understand their feelings, but now the two sides stand on different positions, and each needs to do something that is in line with their own identities.

"I'm sorry, the BR-715 engine really doesn't meet our needs, Rolls-Royce is one of the big three in the field of civil aircraft engine manufacturing, and I hope we will have the opportunity to continue to cooperate in the future."

That's all for Chief Master Ma. Luo Luo also knew that there would be no turnaround, nodded and fell silent, and after a minute, he began to pack up his things and leave, and now the results have come out. There is no need to stay here any longer.

It was a sad moment for the audience to watch the departure of the BR-715 engine team, but there was no sadness for those who remained. The other two parties, as competitors, were naturally happy, and the development team on the stage was because of MBB. It's also not very sad, anyway, without Rollo, he won't eat hairy pigs.

After quickly packing up your mood. Chief Master Ma laughed at this time, since Luo Luo has left, the results are not important, anyway, the remaining two engines are both shortlisted.

Nodding to the other deputy chief engineers, and after confirming again, Chief Master Ma spoke.

"Well, now the two engine developers don't have to worry about whether they will be abandoned, I can make it clear that your two engines are shortlisted at the same time, you are all winners, whether it is CF-34-3 engine or CG-2000 engine, you all have their own outstanding advantages, and your advantages can complement each other, in view of this situation, we leave two engines at the same time, not only to provide backup for our MPC-75 power system, At the same time, it also gives civil aviation companies more choices. ”

Although the opponent was not excluded from allowing himself to enjoy the market exclusively, this result was undoubtedly a happy one, and the developers of the two engines showed a happy smile.

Rao is Yang Hui didn't expect that the end would be such a result, and he actually left two engines at the same time, but after thinking about it, it was indifferent, it was quite normal for an aircraft to have two engines, and he considered that the CG-2000 engine was provided to other aircraft, why couldn't the MPC-75 use two engines, and after an engine had a problem, there was a spare tire to use.

At this time, I can understand the true meaning of Tang Changhong's expression just now, and now the CG-2000 engine must not be taken lightly, because of the existence of CF-3.4-3, the threat is still not small.

GM naturally didn't expect that this would be the result in the end, and after squeezing Rollo away, he didn't expect that he couldn't enjoy this cake in the end, which is a pity. But thinking of the various situations of this CG-2000 engine, GM is indifferent again, and it is easier to compete with this CG-2000 engine than to compete with an old opponent like Rolls-Royce.

At this moment, several teams were thinking about their own affairs, and Mr. Ma spoke again at this time, and the two engines were shortlisted at the same time not only to mean the end of this meeting, but only the beginning.

"The engines provided by both of you have been selected, but our aircraft developers still have some requirements for both of you, and the traditional model of one aircraft with two engines is no longer suitable for the new situation, and we now have new requirements."

After speaking, Chief Master Ma motioned to the staff on the side to send a few pieces of information to the developers of the two engines, and then some staff turned on the projector and played the simple slides.

The ordinary bidders who did not get the information naturally looked at the information on the big screen, and the important people on both sides began to think about the detailed paper materials in their hands, no matter what medium they used to get the information, but the personnel on both sides who provided the engine are now all in deep contemplation.

Until this time, the technical consultant behind Yang Hui whispered to Yang Hui: "Mr. Yang, this requirement put forward by Mr. Ma can be done technically, because we and GM's two engines are still under development, as long as the two sides are willing to unify the interface between the engine and the aircraft, this will not be too big a problem in technology, I think this is feasible." ”

Hearing that the technical consultant he brought this time also said that there was no problem with Chief Ma's request, Yang Hui was even more sure that there was no problem with this project, and discussed with the president of MTU on the other side, Laws, and finally got the result.

smiled and nodded to Chief Master Ma on the stage, everything was silent, and Chief Master Ma also responded to Yang Hui, and then turned his eyes to the general team on the other side, now it depends on the decision of the general manager.

With the eyes of Chief Master Ma, everyone looked at the general aspect together, everyone waited for what kind of result the general would give in the end, and the general side also made a decision after some totaling.

"For the requirements of the MPC-75 passenger aircraft project, we GM agreed in principle, we will cooperate with the CG-2000 engine, MPC-75 aircraft and the two parties to develop the most suitable engine and the standard interface between the aircraft, I believe that our innovation will be a change in the design and manufacture of civil aircraft, and we will make history, GM is willing to contribute."
