Chapter 309: Maxim's Request (Fourth Update)
"If I had to give this engine an evaluation," Maxim took a deep breath, his eyes full of fanaticism, "he's a speed monster who deserves it!" With the right rider, this bike can surpass any motorcycle on the market today! It doesn't matter if they're the top sports cars in Japan or the top sports cars in Europe! β
"Well," Alice thought for a moment, "in order to get the most out of this engine, the body design of this car was entrusted to the racing design department, who have a lot of experience in how to reduce the weight of the car and reduce the drag coefficient of the car during driving. We're going to make this car the ace of speed for our Alice Motorcycles! It will also be used as a vehicle for our Alice Motorcycle Team to compete in the World Superbike Championship! β
As far as Zhang Lan knows, there is really no motorcycle sports car with an exhaust of more than 1200 ml, and there is no motorcycle with an engine power of more than 200 horsepower, if there is no mistake in his memory, he is not reborn, the first mass-produced supermotorcycle with a power of more than 200 British horsepower will be born a few days before he knows that he is reborn in Japan.
It is almost certain that the car will break the record for the fastest speed set by Kawasaki Heavy Industries' just-launched ZZR-1100 superbike, and set a new world record for the fastest speed of a motorcycle, one that no one has been able to break for at least five years.
Everything depends on the body design of this car, while having such an excellent engine, if the design of the body is light enough, more in line with the characteristics of aerodynamics, can make the car run fast enough while trying to reduce the drag when driving, Zhang Lan is very confident that this car will become a legend in the motorcycle world, so that countless motorcycle enthusiasts are crazy about the speed legend.
"Of course, the gentlemen in the racing department are really better suited to designing faster cars, and they're the only ones who can get the most out of this engine." Hearing Alice say this, Maxim nodded in agreement. "It's just that I have to say, maybe after the final formation of this engine, it is not as good as I said, you know. There is always a little bit of a gap between theory and reality, well, even if you make careful calculations, there will always be some errors due to the machining accuracy of the parts or the fuel and other reasons. Of course, this error is not too large, and it is generally within 0.25%. β
"0.25% error?" Zhang Lan couldn't help laughing: If it is for a combat aircraft, maybe this 0.25% error is likely to be redesigned and integrated for the entire aircraft, but for a motorcycle, there is only a 0.25% error, which is simply perfect without any error!
"Basically, as long as the detailed test of the sample engine is confirmed that the engine has no major defects in design or found, the engine can be officially finalized within a month, right?" Zhang Lan asked.
"That's right." Maxim nodded.
"Good!" Zhang Lan nodded. Speaking of a clichΓ© that made everyone listen to the calloused note, "You must remember to apply for a patent immediately after the final finalization, I don't want to see the technology we worked so hard to develop only to end up being the patent of some despicable guy." Then we watched in a daze as someone else took a patent to collect money from us, or forbade us to use the technology. β
"Of course we know that." Maxim nodded.
No one will be unfamiliar with this problem, which has been explained countless times by the two bosses, and no one wants to bear the cost of forgetting to apply for a patent. In order to allow researchers to put their minds to work thoroughly, Alice Group has even set up a patent processing team to be responsible for the patent application of the company's products, and each new application technology appears. As long as the researcher tells the patent processing team about this technology, the members of the patent technology processing team will apply for all domestic and international patents related to this technology as soon as possible.
At the same time, members of the patent processing team regularly visit the company's various laboratories to make inquiries. In order to avoid the embarrassing situation of researching a new technology but forgetting to apply for a patent. In two years, especially in the past six months, the company has applied for more than 800 international and domestic technology patents, and now there are more than 200 technical patents under application, not to mention countless new material patents developed in the New Materials Research Institute.
While rejoicing in the achievements of these guys, there is one thing that Zhang Lan makes a little strange. These designers had never designed a large-displacement motorcycle engine before, and the largest was only a 750-cc air-cooled engine, the same engine as the Ural nephew. The rest of the engines, especially the water-cooled ones, were only introduced for the first time after arriving at the company. Why was it possible to design so many engines in just half a year? This efficiency is a bit too high.
Even those old motorcycle manufacturers, those motorcycle designers with a lot of experience, rarely have such a high efficiency, why can their own designers do this in such a short time? You know, how long have these guys been exposed to these technologies? There are techniques that they have never mastered before.
Since there is a doubt, Zhang Lan is not polite, and it is directly like Maxim mentioning it.
"Actually, it's a very simple question." After listening to Zhang Lan's words, Maxim laughed, "Since we already have the technology of water-cooled four-stroke four-cylinder EFI engine, then theoretically speaking, as long as it is a four-cylinder four-stroke water-cooled EFI engine, we can achieve it on the basis of this technology." Maybe the little boss you don't know much about engine technology, so you think that this aspect of technology is very difficult, or you are scared by those so-called propaganda. In fact, the problem is not so complicated, as long as it is a four-cylinder four-stroke water-cooled EFI engine, their basis is the same. β
After thinking about it, he added, "Of course, in the actual design process, many of the structures and even parts may work differently, but for us, these are all the same. β
"Isn't it like our old Chinese saying: one know-it-all, one know-it-all!" Zhang Lan suddenly asked.
"That's pretty much what it means." Maxim laughed. "Of course, design work is very complicated, and it is not easy to do it if the technology is the same, but don't forget, small boss, how many engineers and designers are working in our company, and how many designers are working in those companies abroad? Even if we are a little worse than them in technology, we can still do much better than them if we all work together. β
Turning his head to look at Xiao Chenxi and Alice, the two girls nodded lightly, and a question in Zhang Lan's heart was finally put down, these guys did not fool themselves, nor did they fool the company. The phrase that more people are better to do, and that everyone gathers firewood and the flame is high, seems to be common in the field of research.
"The company is very satisfied with the progress of your work!" Alice nodded in satisfaction, "Did you encounter any difficulties?" Need help from the company? Just say it, as long as the company can do it, it will definitely help you solve it. β
"There really is one request," Maxim hesitated for a moment when he heard Alice ask, but finally nodded, "I'm afraid that Miss Alice will be troubled." β
Seeing Maxim's hesitant appearance, Zhang Lan was surprised: What is the problem that makes these guys feel embarrassed? Their food, housing and transportation company are all wrapped, and their family members have also been brought here from Russia by Singh, and the family has been reunited, so it can be said that the company has taken care of these guys in an all-round way, what else makes them feel embarrassed?
"What's the matter?" Obviously, Xiao Chenxi obviously had the same doubts about Zhang Lan's incomprehension, "Let's talk about it, the company will try its best to help you solve it." β
"That's what happened." Now that he has made up his mind, Maxim no longer hesitates, "We all see the company's care for us, the Russians. In my heart, I am very grateful to the company. It's just," Speaking of which, Maxim seemed to have something unspeakable, well, for a long time, and said "just" there for a long time, but nothing came out of "just".
Alice was not in a hurry, just sat there with the old god there, waiting for Maxim to say his request: If you don't say it yourself, can I still get into your head to see if I can understand? Isn't it possible that I, the boss, still ask you?
Hearing Maxim say this, the surrounding Russian staff all stopped what they were doing, a little nervous, and a little expectant looking at Alice, Zhang Lan, and Xiao Chenxi, and at the same time staring at Maxim tightly, as if to encourage this guy.
It seems that this request is probably related to these guys. Zhang Lan observed the movements of these guys around her, and couldn't help but start thinking to herself.
But what could it be? Can all these guys keep such a high level of attention to this request of Maxim one by one?
Zhang Lan thought with some doubts, what could it be? The company should be very thoughtful about them, right? Does that mean they want to go back to Russia? Unlikely, the chaos in Russia now, these guys have already known it through their relatives, and it is unlikely that these guys will give up their quiet and peaceful rich life and return to that Russia full of hunger and chaos, right?
