Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Gu Chen just reached a simple verbal agreement with Margaret Thatcher, and the specific content of the agreement was negotiated between Ye Leixin and the relevant government departments, and then Gu Chen set off to inspect various companies, and the Rolls-Royce Motor Cars under the Jaguar Automobile Group became the focus of his inspection, the reason is very simple, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars specially customized for him The new lengthened Rolls-Royce RV is almost completed, taking advantage of this visit to the UK He must come to see in advance, since the last time he took out the drawings of the appearance and interior of the Phantom, He didn't ask again, and he didn't know what the designers of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars would end up with.

When Gu Chen was in Rolls-Royce Motor Cars President Abt? Hebrew accompanied into the No. 1 assembly workshop, his eyes suddenly lit up, in his sight, a beautiful white car quietly listening, just look at the front of the car, this car and his impression of the Rolls-Royce Phantom is basically the same, from the side to see the difference, he doesn't know if the previous life of the Rolls-Royce produced extended RV, anyway, he is the first time to see it, I think it is really fantastic, at least than the extended Lincoln stick he is sitting on now, The nobility of the European medieval aristocracy was by no means comparable to Lincoln's, and the two were not at all on the same order of magnitude.

At this time, all six doors of this Rolls-Royce were opened, and two workers were decorating the interior of the car, Gu Chen walked over and leaned over to look at the car, and thought it was not bad, Abt? Hebrew followed him and explained: "Except for the interior, all the work has been basically completed, and we have applied a lot of new technology from Rolls-Royce and the head office to this car. For example, the new 7.8-liter V12 engine, the new shock absorption balance system, the new driving safety system, and the new braking system. Fully automatic seats, seat heating systems, electric sunroofs, etc., in addition, the car is equipped with a large number of bulletproof technologies that can resist all light weapons, including large-caliber sniper rifles, which is very rare in civilian bulletproof vehicles. ”

"Of course, in order to achieve such a high standard of ballistic protection, we made some sacrifices in terms of weight and weight. The body weighs around 3.9 tonnes, but thanks to the 445 hp of the new engine, the car still has plenty of power. ”

It is heard that this extended Rolls-Royce also uses bulletproof technology. Gu Chen couldn't help but nodded, and Guan Zhilin, who was standing next to him and had been inspecting him everywhere for the past few days, was surprised and said, "This car can be bulletproof?" But it looks no different from a regular car. ”

Abt? Hebrew listened to the interpreter's explanation and said with a smile: "Beautiful young lady, civilian bulletproof cars are not much different from ordinary vehicles in appearance. The reason why it is bulletproof is because we added bulletproof steel plates with a thickness of between 1o and 25 mm and bulletproof glass with a thickness of 25 mm in the middle of the secondary car shell. You can take a look at its window glass and there will be a more intuitive understanding. ”

One of the workers working in the car lowered the window of the middle door by half, Guan Zhilin turned his head to look, and sure enough, the thickness of the window glass was much thicker than that of ordinary cars, almost three times that of ordinary car glass, and then he nodded with understanding.

After carefully looking at the inside and outside of the whole car, Gu Chen was basically satisfied, although because of the restrictions of the times. There may be some technology that can't be compared to the original Phantom, but it's not much different from the original visually. It should be considered to have met his requirements.

Then the group went to other assembly workshops for a turn. On the way to Hebrew's office, Gu Chen asked curiously: "What is the approximate market price of this car?" ”

Abt? Heber said: "This Rolls-Royce customized for Boss is unique, it integrates almost all of our new technology, many of which are now the most advanced automotive technology, and in addition to some electronic components, other including the motor are polished and assembled by the population, the cost alone is more than 12o million US dollars, if it is priced according to the previous Rolls-Royce pricing principles, the market price of this car will be at least 2oo million US dollars or more, this price is too expensive, Even the rich don't have a lot of people who can afford it, and I'm afraid not many people are willing to spend so much money on a car, except for those who are rich. Therefore, in mass production, we will reduce the configuration, even if it is a bulletproof model, we will lower the bulletproof standard. ”

"According to our plan, the Phantom will be a new Rolls-Royce lineup, and at the Detroit International Auto Show in March, the Phantom will launch a full range of four models, including a four-door standard sedan with a 5.4-litre V12 motive, a six-door extended sedan with a 5.4-litre V12 motive, a coupe with a 5.4-litre V12 motive, and a six-door meta-class touring car with a 6.7-litre V12 motive with bulletproof functions. All the vehicles to be exhibited are already in production. ”

"With the new and outstanding shape of the Phantom series, it will definitely become the focus of attention at this Detroit International Auto Show, and then become the object of countless rich people's pursuit, with which Rolls-Royce will further consolidate its position among the top luxury cars."

The Detroit Auto Show was held on March 2o, and there was still almost a month left before now, Gu Chen groaned and said, "Wait for the Detroit Auto Show to start before shipping that car to Hong Kong, so as not to expose it in advance." Also, let's build a few more cars of the same model, all black and white colors. ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Guan Zhilin and asked, "Just now, you seem to like that two-door coupe, let them make a special one according to your requirements?" ”

"Really?" Rolls-Royce is one of the top and most famous luxury cars in the world, Guan Zhilin never thought that she would be able to enjoy Rolls-Royce's private customized service, which was unimaginable before, so that she couldn't suppress the surprise in her heart.

"Of course it's true, you can think about it seriously, write down any requirements, and I think they will meet your requirements as soon as possible."

Guan Zhilin nodded again and again after hearing this, and happily hugged Gu Chen's arm, if it weren't for the public, she would definitely give Gu Chen a big fragrant kiss, and at the same time, her mind was already thinking about what changes she should make to that coupe......

At the end of his trip to the UK, Gu Chen came to Bologna, Italy, a place called Santa Agata ? Bologna's town, where Automobili Lamborghini is located, is far from being able to compare with Ferrari, which is also an Italian sports car brand, but Gu Chen believes that this goal will not be too far away, because he is handing over the exterior and interior design drawings of the Phantom to Paradi, president of Jaguar Motors Group? In Adelaide, it also contained drawings of several other models, including Lamborghini.

Gu Chen painted a classic Lamborghini model: Lamborghini-bat, but he didn't know that he was painting the first generation of bats, maybe not bats at all, because he felt that Lamborghini's models seemed to be similar, he just drew the shape of the car in his impression according to his memory.

In order to reduce the wind resistance of the car to the greatest extent, the designers optimized the drawings to make them more in line with the principle of fluid science, and then based on Lamborghini's current main model, the Lamborghini-Nettach, after more than two months of development, a new concept car was built. According to Lamborghini President Bolt? Brio's plan, this new Lamborghini concept car will be officially unveiled at the Detroit International Auto Show like the Rolls-Royce Phantom series, after the auto show, Lamborghini will launch a new production model based on this concept car, the name has been set, it is called Lamborghini-Bat.

Gu Chen came to Italy this time to see the concept car that was born because of him, but in fact he only stayed in Lamborghini for an hour, during which he visited the research center and the car assembly workshop. Accompanied by Brio, he watched a spectacular show specially prepared for him by the Bat Concept Car at the proving ground, and then returned to Bologna non-stop, arriving at Venice, a famous city in northeastern Italy.

Since he called Guan Zhilin from Los Angeles to Canada to accompany him, with his character, it is naturally impossible to only let Guan Zhilin accompany him on a business trip, but it was Guan Zhilin's own request to come to Venice, when they arrived in Venice, it was already dark, and after dinner in the hotel, Guan Zhilin couldn't wait to pull him out of the hotel, wandering on the river on the road in a boat, looking at the brightly lit night scene on both sides, his face couldn't help but show a relaxed smile, since that time because of the pressure of public opinion forced to avoid Hawaii, And because of this, after getting to know Bush Jr., he never let himself take a good vacation, and wondered if he would play for a few more days this time and then go back.

"There's an open-air café over there, let's go sit down." Guan Zhilin pointed to the left front with great interest, Gu Chen looked over, it was already close to the sea, and there was a small open-air coffee house built on a rock, and sitting on it, you should be able to see the harbor outside.

"Okay." After a short drive, the boat docked on the left bank of the river, and Gu Chen and Guan Zhilin walked up a narrow staircase to the café and sat down at a table located on the edge of the railing. Sure enough, you can see the sparkling sea from afar...... (To be continued......)
