When Meng Lingtao heard that Zhao Yuemin wanted a humvee, he was immediately shocked and said: "You Zhao Yuemin, you really dare to say ......."

"Meng Bureau, the American Humvee, has experienced the baptism and test of the battlefield, and its performance is stable. I think it's ideal for driving into the Taklamakan Desert. Meng Ju, you are the general manager of the Western Exploration Company, and you are fully responsible for the development of the Tarim Oilfield. Safety comes first, and you don't want to have any problems during your tenure......"

Meng Lingtao fiddled with the pen in his hand and said: "You Zhao Yuemin, sharp teeth, I can't mean you, so let's go talk to Secretary Wu of PetroChina and see his attitude......"

According to Zhao Yuemin's proposal, the Western Exploration Company and PetroChina formed a joint advisory group to drive around the Taklamakan Desert for more than 20 days, and conducted a detailed investigation of the roads and bridges, hydrogeology and meteorology along the way.

After returning to Beijing, the advisory group drafted a report and presented it to the party group of the Ministry of Energy. A month later, PetroChina approved an $8 million grant for the introduction of desert transport vehicles and bulldozer lifting equipment.

All the ordering work is responsible for the West Exploration Company.

Zhao Yuemin immediately asked Azgul to contact Mercedes-Benz of the Federal Republic of Germany, Caterpillar of the United States, and Toyota of Japan.

At present, the foreign off-road vehicle market is monopolized by these companies.

For the inquiry letter sent by the West Exploration Company, Mercedes-Benz Company and Caterpillar Company quickly gave a reply and quotation.

Due to the Taklamakan Desert, no one from the user to the manufacturer knows the performance of desert off-road vehicle transportation. Several foreign companies have also shown great interest in the face of the challenges of this desert geology.

From inquiry to negotiation, several foreign companies sent representatives to Wushi in western Xinjiang to repeatedly test the geological conditions of the Taklamakan Desert.

Several prototype cars were also transported to Xijiang Province for test runs through sea-rail intermodal transport. After two months of negotiation and commissioning, Zhao Yuemin signed eight supply contracts with five automobile suppliers on behalf of Xikan Company. 62 desert transport vehicles, 7 Hummer desert off-road vehicles, 12 desert bulldozers and 6 desert cranes were purchased, with a total value of more than 6 million US dollars.

The employees of Fengyuan Company and Xikan Company heard that a large number of new vehicles had been purchased, and they all rubbed their hands and waited for the vehicles to arrive.

Two weeks later, the military Humvee, painted in camouflage, finally arrived at the desert base of the Tarim oil field.

Looking at the domineering and wide body, many employees are extremely curious.

Several Americans, jumping out of the Humvee.

"Hello, I'm Davis." An American with a bald head and broad shoulders shook hands with Zhao Yuemin and said, "I was sent by the company to help you understand the performance of the Humvee." ”

"This is Anna." Davis pointed to a blonde woman in a racing suit and said, "It's also my co-pilot, we were both professional race car drivers before. ”

"Hello." Anna took off her helmet, shook her blonde hair, and shook hands with Zhao Yuemin.

In order to ensure the quality of the test, the American AMG company specially invited professional racing drivers to help customers inspect the vehicles.

"Mr. Zhao, this is a Hummer Jeep, and the next two are a six-wheeled and ten-wheeled transporter." "The Humvee used to be a military vehicle, equipped with a suspended missile unit and a GPS satellite positioning system. He patted on the door, "Of course, the company has already dismantled all of these before coming to China." ”

"However, the Hummer still retains the central inflation system......," laughs the blonde Anna, "This desert car can automatically deflate when climbing steep slopes or sand hills to increase the contact area between the tires and the ground, and when climbing sand hills, it can automatically inflate." Even if the tires are hit by the enemy, they can continue to inflate and travel 100~150 km. ”

When the employees of Xikan Company heard this introduction, they couldn't help but sigh, the old and beautiful things are advanced. It would be a real pity if these advanced technologies were not used to conquer the Taklamakan Desert.

Davis and Anna, both outspoken-tempered Americans. They offered to test run it right away. However, Zhao Yuemin saw that the other party was coming from afar, and watched the Hummer full of accessories, and persuaded the other party to take a break for the time being and test tomorrow.

In the evening, Zhao Yuemin feasted Davis and Anna, served goat milk wine on the dinner table, and grabbed naan cakes.

Davis and Anna, who grew up in the West, are very interested in these foods, and they feast on them.

Azgul drank a lot of goat's milk wine, her face flushed, she quietly lowered her head, and said, "Manager, I want to try that Humvee." ”

"Won't we be able to see Davis tomorrow and they operate?" Zhao Yuemin responded.

"It's not ......" Azgul held her face, her weird big eyes flashed, "I want to try it myself, leader, you help me keep it secret." ”

With that, she ran straight to the back door.

Zhao Yuemin was worried in his heart. Azgul, this girl, is young, she has drunk again, and she has done things, no light or heavy, what if something goes wrong with the car?

Thinking of this, he immediately ran out as well.

By the time he felt the parking lot, Azgul had already lifted the plastic cover of a Humvee, and he didn't know where to conjure up a car key and was about to pull the car door.

"Where did you get the key?" Zhao Yuemin asked.

"I poured Smith a few glasses of wine and pulled it out of his pocket." Azgul said strangely.

Zhao Yuemin was speechless.

"I'll do it." Zhao Yuemin sat in the driver's seat first, he looked at Azgul and said: "I have learned to drive, you can sit in the passenger seat and experience it." ”

Zhao Yuemin's words were half majestic and half kind, but Azgul unexpectedly quieted down and sat obediently in the passenger seat.

Zhao Yuemin twisted the key, stepped on the accelerator, and immediately felt the low roar of the engine and the strong feeling of pushing back. The interior of the Hummer is spacious, and there is no pressure for four people to sit side by side in the front row. The steering wheel is not as hard to control as expected, and the power assist function makes driving easier.

The employees of AMG and Xikan were drinking and chatting when no one noticed that a Hummer H1 had quietly driven out of the parking lot.

In the Taklama Desert at night, there is occasional wind and sand, and there is silence all around.

A Humvee H1 is driving around the base in dust.

Zhao Yuemin is getting acquainted with the H1's performance, which is powered by a 6.5-liter turbocharged diesel engine. It is located in the middle of the car, which makes the weight of the whole car very evenly distributed. A hermetically sealed, central regulator keeps the system pressure balanced and protects major components from contamination. The system allows the Hummer to drive all day in water at a depth of almost 1 meter without fear of water, sand and mud.

Climb over the sand dunes and drive into the Oasis Reservoir.

Zhao Yuemin was driving the H1 and was enjoying the driving pleasure brought by this desert beast. And Azgul next to him also looked at Zhao Yuemin attentively.

"It's getting late, let's go back." After wandering around, Zhao Yuemin looked at his watch and said.

"I ...... I don't really want to go back. Azgul's face flushed.
