Made, since you have already boarded Lao Tzu's thief ship, if you want Lao Tzu to get rid of it and go it alone, don't even think about it!

Jin Xiaoqiang has no doubt about GM's R&D capabilities, don't look at people's hands now, there is indeed no suitable model to compete with Ford and Chrysler, but if people are really more serious, I believe that in less than a year, people will be able to come up with a suitable model. [Updated]

Now it's just that GM doesn't have a handy guy in his hands, and they are very eager to return to the U.S. police car procurement market, and they don't want to lose face because they don't have a model to take advantage of when they return to the police car market for the first time. That's why I found myself and asked to change the name of Qoros 9.

If they don't agree, then at that time, people will have to go a year or two late, as long as there are models to take advantage of, they will soon be able to stir up a bloody storm in the police car market in the United States.

And what follows, it must be the unimaginable revenge that GM has inflicted on himself, to be honest, in the past few years, the relationship between himself and GM, although he has been very strong on the surface, but in fact, Jin Xiaoqiang also knows that in fact, he has been walking a tightrope.

The reason why they can get the upper hand every time they are in the game with GM is also because they don't really pay too much attention to themselves, and they also give others considerable benefits, plus they are busy adjusting the industrial structure internally, so they are flawless to deal with themselves, if they really annoy this industry giant, then even if they don't say the catastrophe, but they are sniped by a large margin, they must be unavoidable.

Think about the seventies and eighties of the last century, when Ferrari dominated the Le Mans circuit, like the sun is in the sky, unstoppable, and has monopolized the track championship for many years.

At that time, Ford wanted to buy Ferrari, and the two sides also started negotiations, but when the negotiations entered the final stage, Ferrari unilaterally tore up the agreement, and the previous capabilities of both parties were in vain.

This action immediately angered Ford, and the result of Ford's anger was that the Ford GT was immediately launched that year, so the Ford GT won and won the championship and second place at Le Mans that year.

And after that, Ferrari didn't win a Le Mans title for several years!

And on the F1 track, it also sniped at Ferrari, which dominated the F1 track for several years in a row, and it was under such powerful sniping that it lost the title of the F1 track for several consecutive years.

Although Ford has withdrawn from F1 for many years, in the history of F1, the engine with the second most championships is second only to Ferrari, and it still belongs to Ford's engine.

Think about it again, in the original history, Ford has been obsessed with the development of high-horsepower engines, but when the company experienced the financial crisis in 2008 and fell into trouble, they realized that it was no longer feasible to develop the high-horsepower V8 that Americans liked, and the next year they came up with the EcoBoost engine that could compete with the TSI technology that Volkswagen had boasted about for many years, and won the Ward Top Ten selection in a row.

After all, where the automobile industry arose, more than 100 years of experience in car manufacturing were not given in vain, and people do have such confidence.

Ford is still so strong, let alone GM, which has suppressed Ford for decades in the competition?

If people really want to be more serious with themselves, maybe they will be able to come up with the same level of technology as themselves next year, and then they will lose a lot at that time. …,

Rather than this, it is better to give them now, but there is a condition that a long-term cooperation agreement is signed with them, so as not to let these guys return to the field of vision of police cars with the help of their Qoros 9 models in a few years, and then leave aside their own research and development of a new car in a few years, and then kick out Qoros 9 in the procurement of police cars.

Nick. Reilly also knew that Jin Xiaoqiang was a difficult guy, but he didn't expect this guy to think so far, in fact, General Motors did think so.

On the one hand, I really don't have a model in my hand, so I have to borrow one from Huayang Power to deal with it, mainly because this year's bid is inevitable, and we must let many Americans and people in the American police know that we are back with GM.

Therefore, this year's participation in the business of official cars can only succeed and not fail for GM, otherwise they would not have temporarily found Huayang Power.

After getting some orders for police cars this year, which left a deep impression on some people in the United States, and won time for themselves, GM's R&D department MÉN will begin to exert its strength, believing that in less than two years, they will be able to come up with a suitable model that completely belongs to them, and then they can kick Huayang Power out of this market.

I didn't expect this Jin Xiaoqiang to have expected this, this guy is really a headache!

But Nick. As for the future, it would be good if the research and development expenses of the new car could be left, after all, GM's capital flow in recent years has been too tight, and there are many places that need money!

"Alright! This condition, we can consider. ”

Seeing Nick nodded, Jin Xiaoqiang knew that the other party had let himself go again, if it weren't for the fact that GM has been riddled with many diseases in recent years, and there are many places that need to be adjusted, I believe that the other party will definitely not agree to his conditions so easily.

"Alright then, now let's talk about the conditions for the modification of the police car you need!"

As a designer, Jin Xiaoqiang of course knows that the bidding conditions for American police cars must be very strict, and the Qoros 9 model he designed before is a luxury car prepared for the high-ranking officials of the Celestial Empire, but there are some places that are definitely unnecessary for the American police, and the special modifications required by the American police must also be something they do not have at present.

As the designer of this car, the modifications that need to be done in the future must be completed by him, so he wants to hear what Nick has to say about the conditions of this car.

Nick. Reilly nodded and gestured to his entourage, and those entourages were also very good at coming to things, and quickly handed Jin Xiaoqiang a thick tender condition.

Jin Xiaoqiang took a look, and after looking at a few conditions, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of air, it is worthy of being a special car for the American police, but it is really professional enough, it can really be called a luxury police car, the current Qoros 9 model, there are really many places that do not meet the standard.

First of all, the chassis and braking system of this car must be redesigned, because it must meet the high intensity emphasized by the police, be able to continue to pursue criminals at high speeds, and be able to brake the car in time to avoid accidental injuries in car accidents.

The requirements for the strength of the body are very high, and in terms of cào control, the American police are obviously not interested in what full-time four-wheel drive, they are more interested in the front and rear wheels, which may be related to their years of driving habits.

Needless to say, the engine power system is not to mention, especially the demand for the V8 engine, because in this bidding document GM has made a prediction, if the car is purchased in the future, then the order volume of the V8 engine will at least exceed 80%, which shows the degree of love for the V8 engine in the United States. …,

Although taxpayers hope that the police can use more energy-saving and environmentally friendly models, the police can use many excuses to prevaricate taxpayers' requirements.

An oversized trunk is also a must, and the trunk also has a series of equipment such as a full-size black steel spare tire, gun holders, barricade storage, tool boxes, fire extinguishers, etc.

The wheelbase of the whole vehicle should be more than 29 meters, which Jin Xiaoqiang does not need to worry about, because the original wheelbase of Qoros 9 is not short, and there is no pressure if it exceeds 29 meters.

However, the space of the front and rear seats needs to be adjusted, and it turns out that the design of this car was originally designed with the occupants in mind, and they may all be senior officials in China, so the rear seat space is designed to be very large, and there is no pressure on the erlangtǐ or something, but now these have all changed.

The back row of the American police car is dedicated to the criminals, so the space requirements for the back row are to be able to sit down on the individual, the original sofa seats, all replaced by plastic seats, as for the comfort, it is no longer considered at all, because where is the prisoner.

Moreover, the rear mén cannot be opened at all from the inside or outside, and can only be opened by pointing out and unlocking from the front B-pillar.

As for the front seat, the requirements are quite strong, and the front row needs to have a gun mount, siren, charger, and a police light control unit, as well as a laptop for the police officer, and a reading light.

And the control unit of the police light is also very powerful, he requires that it must be able to cut off the light source outside the whole car, and even in the case of the brake light, the hand control light at the front A-pillar can be illuminated, so that in the dark, the police can secretly search or chase the annoyance.

And for the protection of the driving and passenger parts of the front car, they also put forward considerable requirements, they even put forward a requirement to equip Kevlar armor inside the front car mén, so as to be able to withstand the pistol at close range, or the bullet of the shotgun, as for the glass of the police car, whether it wants bulletproof function, it depends on whether the police have special needs when ordering.
