The day after the Detroit Auto Show, when Jin Xiaoqiang was still in his luxury suite in the hotel, he was bedridden, and people from Volkswagen came to the door. feichangwenxue

After the Paris Motor Show a few months ago, Volkswagen, which has always been arrogant, found Huayang Power, found Jin Xiaoqiang, and exchanged the cooling oil of the dual-clutch transmission from Jin Xiaoqiang with the technology of the CVT gearbox, which they are not very eye-catching.

And the purpose of them coming to Jin Xiaoqiang this time is also very simple, that is, for turbine cooling oil.

In fact, as early as the beginning of the year, when Volkswagen introduced their mid-level sedan Passat to the Celestial Empire, they did not expect this car to be so popular in the Celestial Empire.

At that time, there was no clear concept of car classification in the Celestial Empire automobile market, and it was Toyota's Camry and Honda's Accord that dominated the Celestial Empire's mid-class car market at that time.

After carefully observing the market and making full preparations, Volkswagen finally transplanted the 1bt engine they hit on the Audi model to the Passat, and used this Passat to define the mid-range high-end car.

At that time, the Passat was very popular in the era when it was just listed, with an entry price of 220,000 yuan and a top price of more than 300,000 yuan, but it was directly chasing Volkswagen's high-end brand Audi.

At that time, the Celestial Empire consumers, who had not seen the turbocharger engine, were also eager for this model, and also gave the Volkswagen a thumbs up for this car, saying that they were kind and willing to put such a luxurious configuration on a mid-range car, you must know that such a turbocharger was a very high-tech concept back then, although the Japanese had it, but they never introduced it into the idea of the Celestial Empire.

After two years of the initial frenzy of increasing the price of the car and operating in the hands of consumers, people's concept of the Passat has gradually cooled down.

Because the Passat has a turbo oil that burns engine oil, and the maintenance is expensive, and it costs tens of thousands of dollars to change it for less than 50,000 kilometers, it has calmed down many consumers who were crazy at the beginning.

So then there was a burst of unreliable verbal criticism of Volkswagen, and then there was a Japanese car dealer to take advantage of the situation and reduce the price of promotion, and the Volkswagen was defeated in the mid-level car market.

In addition, the Huayang Power that suddenly appeared later was constantly disrupting the situation in the market, so that the current Volkswagen Passat is not only not sold in the American market, but even in the Celestial Empire market, it is not easy to work.

The aura of the original god car is gradually fading away under the impact of the new Tianchao automobile consumption concept introduced by Huayang Power.

In the series of mid-level cars, Volkswagen is currently only a lone seedling like the Passat, and it has had a period of glory, so in the eyes of the current Volkswagen executives, although the Passat is not performing well in the market, it cannot but save the brand.

You must know that the market share of Volkswagen's products in Europe is only 18.3 percent, and their market share in the Celestial Empire was once as high as 80 percent before the emergence of Huayang Power.

Although in recent years, with the attention of Japanese car manufacturers to the Celestial Empire market and the rise of Huayang Power, their share of the Celestial Empire market has been shrinking, as of last year, their market share has dropped from 80 percent at the peak to 40 percent. /Very literary/

But even so, they are still the old ones in the Tianchao automobile market

Moreover, Celestial Empire's consumers have an incomprehensible plot for sedans, which leads to their Golf, and products like Podo, destined to be just an awkward role in Celestial Empire. …,

At present, they are also working heavily on the development of the mid-level car market, but as far as the current situation is concerned, if they want to catch up with the technical content of Huayang Power and the reputation of Japanese cars, then they must scoop up a product that makes sense.

So while they continued to save the Passat, they planned to transplant it from their family model, the Phaeton, and pull a new car.

At present, the name of this new car has been named Magotan , the problem of the transmission has been solved, and the engine they plan to make a 20ti model out, with in-cylinder direct injection technology, and turbocharging technology, the technical content of such a model, should always be able to compete with Huayang power, right?

And relying on the character they have accumulated in the past, as well as the name of the god car they have touted, as long as the price of this car is not too outrageous, I believe that it will definitely be able to win a considerable market at that time.

Volkswagen's calculations are good, but when researching new engines, they get stuck, and the reason for the jam is very simple, it is because of the problem with their turbocharger.

The problem of their turbocharger burning oil is vividly demonstrated in the Passat's 18T model, and now it is also in the Magotan that they focus on.

I know my own problems best, the problem of the Passat before was not solved, and it was precisely because of this problem that their Passat was losing in the market of the Celestial Empire.

If this problem is brought to Magotan this time, will their Magotan still sell well?

I know with my ass that if such a product is scooped into the market, then in the face of the slogan of our turbine lifetime maintenance-free shouted by Huayang Power, the public will even have their bottoms stripped off.

Finally mustered up the courage to stud, but lost the bottoms, which is definitely not the cleanliness that the leaders of Volkswagen want to see, so the problem of turbo cooling must be overcome before this car can be launched.

Volkswagen's engineers, studied for about half a year, made a number of plans, but unfortunately the final results are not very ideal, in the end Volkswagen had no choice but to repeat the old tricks, buy back a new Huayang power on the market, and equipped with ecoboost engine Qoros 6 and then disassemble the engine, open the turbine all-in-one inside, pour out the turbine cooling oil inside, and then use it on its own 20ti engine.

As a result, the same transmission oil they used with Sunless Power before, this oil also works with their turbine, and it also makes their turbine perform exceptionally well.

It is not difficult to know the slogan of lifetime maintenance-free turbines, which is not difficult in theory, that is, to ensure that your turbine can always be stable within a certain temperature when it is working, if it exceeds this temperature, the turbine blades will face a problem of corrosion.

Therefore, the cooling of the turbo is especially critical for a turbocharged engine, and now the Volkswagen has finally figured out the main reason why the turbo of Huayang Power can be maintenance-free for life, that is, the cooling oil of other people is used well.

So there is another problem in front of them, one is to put aside Huayang Power, do it yourself, and figure out the formula of this engine oil, but it may cost hundreds of millions of euros, and it may take several years or even more than ten years, and the final result may not be ideal.

And the public can't wait so long and take such a big risk.

Then in the end, there is only one choice left, that is, to come to Huayang Power, to negotiate with Jin Xiaoqiang, and buy such oil from their hands as last time. …,

The person who came to negotiate with Jin Xiaoqiang this time was still the vice president of the bulk who dealt with Jin Xiaoqiang last time, Carl. Newman!

"Mr. Newman, I didn't expect us to meet again! How is everything? How are you doing? ”

Seen Carl in the conference room. When Newman, Jin Xiaoqiang greeted him with a smile.

If I don't have your Huayang power, I don't know how comfortable my life will be.

Cal. Newman shook hands with Jin Xiaoqiang who came over, and complained about the guy opposite in his stomach.

Carl was born as a technician. Newman, he still admires Jin Xiaoqiang's design ability very much, in his opinion, this guy is really a top genius.

However, as a leader who competes with Huayang Power, he hates Huayang Power and Jin Xiaoqiang, and it is this suddenly rising company in the past two years that has robbed a lot of people's jobs.

"Hehe, hello, I've been fine lately, thank you for your concern."

Cal. In order to show respect for Jin Xiaoqiang, Newman even said hello to Jin Xiaoqiang in Chinese with a strong accent that he had just learned.

Jin Xiaoqiang felt a little surprised after hearing this, but he was soon relieved, this guy was originally appointed as the president of the Volkswagen Celestial Empire region this year or next year, but later he was dismissed by Volkswagen after the large-scale outbreak of the Celestial Empire.

Now it seems that it is also because of the problem of the dual-clutch transmission, the day he went to the Celestial Empire to take up his post, it seems that it is in advance, if he knows the truth, he really has to thank himself!

After exchanging pleasantries, the two sides took their own people and sat at opposite ends of the long table in the conference room.

"Tell me, what the hell is it that came to me this time?"

Jin Xiaoqiang asked Carl with a smile. Newman said that although he had already guessed the purpose of the other party's trip, in order to grasp the initiative in the negotiations, of course, it was better for the other party to make the request.

Cal. Newman of course knew what the little fox on the other side was thinking, but he was also helpless, originally before the appearance of Huayang Power, in the field of mechanical technology, there had always been only the people of the Celestial Empire begging the Germans, but I didn't expect that in just a few years of hard work, now the Germans are actually asking the people of the Celestial Empire, it is really feng shui in turn!

"Alright! Mr. Kim, I'm getting straight to the point, I came to negotiate with you this time, mainly for the purpose of your turbine engine special cooling oil. I hope that we can reach another cooperation in engine oil! ”

Cal. Newman said to Jin Xiaoqiang that the Germans are really helpless about the chemical field.

Especially in the field of petrochemical industry, although the Germans can be called the world's masters, they are really not the world's top, and the Americans are far ahead in this regard.

In the original history, Ford's transmission cooled the oil, so that their dual-clutch was stress-free, and it was also the turbine of their EcoBoost engine that shouted the slogan of lifetime maintenance-free.

If it weren't for the kind of nano-biological cells that Jin Xiaoqiang had in his hands in this life, it is estimated that if he wanted to reach the strength of the Americans, he might be able to catch up in a hundred years of development!

"Oh? In other words, do you want to buy turbocooler oil for our turbocharged engines? ”

Jin Xiaoqiang asked knowingly, let Carl. Newman felt very uncomfortable, but who let his side have a request for others, so he could only endure it.

"Yes, we want that cooling oil!"

Cal. Newman replied.

"Well, what are you going to pay for?"

Jin Xiaoqiang asked Carl with a smile again. Newman to. …,

Cal. Newman looked at the smiling face in front of him at this time, and really had an urge to step forward and punch that face hard, this guy is really hateful, how can anyone let themselves reveal their hole cards?

Cal. Newman was expressionless and did not answer Jin Xiaoqiang's question, and Jin Xiaoqiang had long been accustomed to this guy's cold poker face.

"Alright! Since you've made your request, I'm going to mention my conditions, I want qwattra's technology......"

Jin Xiaoqiang said with a smile, but as soon as his conditions were proposed, Carl on the other side. Newman's face turned pale.

"This can't be? Mr. Kim's condition is a bit too much......"

Cal. Newman is really angry, these Celestial Empire people are really robbers, they only sell us some engine oil, and they want our Audi housekeeping skills, do they really take us for fools?

"Uh...... All right...... Cal. Mr. Newman, why don't you go back and think about it first, and then we'll talk? I'm sorry, I have some other things to attend to today, so let's talk about it another day! ”

After speaking, Jin Xiaoqiang, who had a cold face, stood up all of a sudden, took his team, and left the conference room quickly, not giving the public any room to react at all.

It's rude, Carl. Newman can guarantee that he has never seen such a rude, arrogant negotiator in his life, and he really wants to chase him out and give that guy two blows, but he doesn't dare.

To be honest, this is indeed Jin Xiaoqiang's deliberate gift to Carl. Newman is ugly, his dissatisfaction with the public in his heart is not a day or two, thinking that the public made a lot of money in the Celestial Empire, but he is not good at his Celestial Empire supporters, Japanese and American car series have reduced prices, but they are raising prices.

At the same time, the money earned from the Celestial Empire was used to subsidize European consumers, so that Volkswagen's models in Europe were reduced in price.
