1178. Li Yifan's design
"That's the surprise, you say?"
Wuyun Gaowa raised her head, looked at Li Yifan beside her and said.
After this guy brought himself in again, at the beginning of the establishment of this studio, he said that he wanted to surprise himself, and at that time he thought he was joking.
But today she was really shocked, this 3D printer, at present, only exists in the legendary tall, even if Wuyun Gaowa used to work in the top design studio in Europe, but where, she has never seen such a thing.
In Giugiaro's design studio, the designers are still holding carving knives with one hand and one foot, playing with carving.
At that time, I still thought that those designers were good enough and artistic enough, but now I think about it, those so-called sculptors, in front of these two machines, are like two old farmers with hoes in their hands.
Although they are human beings and have artistic cells, they are so pale and powerless in front of these two machines full of industrial beauty.
If such machines can be widely promoted in the future, it seems that craftsmen such as sculptors will only be swept into the dustbin of history in the future.
Wuyun is a person with a strong ability to accept new things, but today he is still shocked by Li Yifan's generosity.
In this way, the 3D printer that has been formed and can be applied in reality has not yet appeared even in Europe and the United States, which are currently known as technologically advanced, but now they have appeared in Huaguo, appeared in her studio, and will be used by her in the future, how can she not be excited.
And what touched her even more was Li Yifan's trust in her, knowing that even if she could encounter such a thing in a laboratory in Italy. I'm afraid except for the studio's executive-level figures. Ordinary designer. You're not going to have a chance to use it.
Even if you want to use it, you have to make a report and apply for approval.
But now Li Yifan actually handed over this thing to himself very casually, and told himself that he could use it casually, this trust made Wuyun's heart warm.
"Alright. Don't be grateful here, if you have kung fu, hurry up and get to work, I'm looking forward to your work. ”
Li Yifan said with a smile, and the dark cloud punched him in the shoulder with a smile.
"Don't worry, with such a divine weapon to help, I can promise you that within two years, you will definitely be able to see the finished product."
Wuyun said this very confidently, Li Yifan's speech today. It can be regarded as improving the cohesion of the studio, and a series of equipment is displayed. It can be regarded as completely stabilizing the minds of these guys.
These people are all carefully selected by her from her alma mater, they are all people with personality and spirituality, and she will be their guides, as long as they are attentive.
I believe that it will take less than three months to get familiar with the entire car design process, and these three months can also allow them to effectively run in with the automotive engineers who brought Li Yifan to the dynamic technology design.
In three months, they will be able to form combat effectiveness, and it is estimated that by the end of the year, these people will be able to come up with some promising designs, and with these two artifacts in hand, she can completely save six months to a year from drawings to entities.
And with these two artifacts, the studio doesn't have to be afraid of manual mistakes, or even model errors, because using this thing will greatly reduce the cost of making models, whether it is the cost of funds or time.
Even if there is a mistake, everyone can correct it.
In this way, the time for car design and molding can be greatly shortened, so that their design can be put on the production line as soon as possible.
For this, Wuyun is very confident, and Li Yifan is also very convinced.
"By the way, I've seen a few of your previous design drawings, and it's good. However, your drawings are mainly for Mercedes-Benz sports cars, and such models are not suitable for the business and family dual-purpose cars we require. Do you have any new ideas lately? ”
Li Yifan asked Wuyun Gaowa very casually.
When Wuyun was in Giugiaro, he had taken orders for several Mercedes-Benz models, mainly to help Mercedes-Benz design the next generation of concept cars, all of which were of some coupe types, and several of them were adopted by Mercedes-Benz, and it is likely that they will be launched at auto shows in recent years.
The design of the car is very creative and beautiful, which can be regarded as the famous work of Wuyun Gaowa, but it is not the demand of Li Yifan.
After all, his Chenhua car is mainly a medium-sized car suitable for commercial and household use like Camry and Accord, and the coupe model is a bit too exaggerated, and the current domestic audience is not high.
"Not yet, the focus of my recent work is to quickly lead these guys on the road, let them get familiar with the whole car design process, and let these guys run in with those scientific engineers as soon as possible, as for the creativity you mentioned, I want to wait until this period of time has passed, I don't have time to think about it."
Wuyun hugged his arms and said, she understands the situation of Li Yifan's Chenhua Automobile Company, and the two models currently being designed and developed are from the Zunchi and Junjie that Giugiaro helped design.
What do you say about those two cars, Junjie still looks a little young and fashionable, and Zunchi can only be said to be very mediocre and stable.
Neither car is pretty, but it certainly doesn't dislike anyone else.
However, there is a problem that auto companies are gradually accelerating the pace of upgrading their models.
In the past, large car companies did not update once in five years on average, that is to say, if a new car was launched at this auto show, then the new car was actually in the design studio of the car company, at least for five years.
At the time of the launch of this new car, in fact, designers have begun to develop and design the next generation of models.
Originally, this cycle was five years, but in recent years, due to fierce market competition, this replacement cycle has been shortened to three years.
This habit was first put forward by Volkswagen, and in the face of the Japanese car dealers' step-by-step pressure and encirclement in the Chinese market, Volkswagen's old models have quickly become synonymous with obsolescence, so they have accelerated the pace of upgrading.
And once Volkswagen makes a move, other car companies will follow.
Now if Chenhua Automobile wants to build a world-class standard, then it must be in line with international standards in this regard.
Although Chenhua's Junjie and Zunchi have not yet been officially launched on the market, they will be listed next year, and they must speed up the progress.
Li Yifan's words made Wuyun feel a little pressure.
"I have an idea, during this time, I have drawn a few sketches, why don't you take a look at them first?"
Li Yifan said with a smile, and the dark clouds looked at him at this time, as if they were looking at a monster.
What does this boss do, how can he know everything, he can do anything, and now he even has to intervene in car design, is he really the genius of the legendary genius?
Li Yifan scratched his head a little embarrassed: "If you worship me, please don't use this kind of look." ”
"Get out of the way."
Dark Cloud was very familiar with him, and the two of them didn't mind making such jokes.
She took the sketchpad from Li Yifan's hand, and before opening it, she didn't quite believe that this guy could design any beautiful models.
But when her hand opened the drawing board and read a few pages, she was completely shocked, how did this guy grow his brain, could it be that this guy also graduated from the Central Academy of Fine Arts before? Or maybe he also studied in Germany, specializing in automotive design?
There are more than 20 hand-drawn car sketches on the drawing board, which look very professionally designed, and even the steps are exactly the same.
In the first few photos, the shape of the car on the drawing is very sloppy, a bit of the scribble font in calligraphy, which is the process of forming a concept in the designer's mind, but it is not too clear.
Generally, in this process, designers will flash the inspiration in their minds, record it on the drawing board in this way, and then after a period of pondering, carefully crafting, so that the design pattern becomes gradually perfect, until it finally tends to be perfect.
And the whole process of the painting on this drawing board is the same as the designer's thinking.
At the end, when I saw the pictures of the two perfect two models that were painted, Wuyun Gaowa couldn't help but applaud for this wonderful design idea.
At the end of the drawing board are two very beautiful models, both with a streamlined design, one looks very sharp, and the other looks more sporty and younger.
Overall, they are very beautiful, and such a car, if you take it off the drawings and make it, as long as you take it out, just by the appearance, it will definitely attract enough eyeballs.
As an automobile design practitioner, Wuyun even dared to pat his chest just by looking at the drawings, guaranteeing that these two cars, as long as they can be launched on the market, then they can definitely buy the big fire.
The reason is very simple, just because the shape of these two cars is so beautifully designed.
If there is also a person ten years later who sees the pictures of these two cars, he will definitely scold Li Yifan for his shamelessness, this is simply Chiguoguo's plagiarism!
Isn't this the two hot-selling cars that later made Hyundai and Kia famous all over the world and sold well, Hyundai Sonata VIII, and Kia K5?
Hyundai and Kia, at this time, are the spokespeople of cheap and second-rate brands, but a few years later, they have entered the ranks of the world's leading car manufacturers in one fell swoop, and it is these two beautiful masterpieces that have turned them around. 、
Regardless of how bad the engine and chassis of this car are, the shape of these two cars alone is enough to make consumers have the urge to dig out their wallets. (To be continued......)
