Chapter 62: Mazda (5)

After a long time, Jerry stretched his waist and yawned, then stood up from the golf cart, and Emily, who was standing on the side, quickly took out a tissue and wiped the corner of his mouth. Jerry smiled very embarrassedly, and actually slept so much that the corners of his mouth were hanging out, really, a little embarrassing. Takeshi Okuda and Aiko Mitsui didn't seem to see it, and they made a strong gesture to the hole. The two of them landed close to each other, and this was already an eighteen-hole zuihou.

Aiko Mitsui and Shuo Okuda, one seems to be young and beautiful, the other seems to be loyal and old, but they exude an indelible desire to win in their bones. Even now, it seems that there is no atmosphere of competition, and the two of them are still very cautious in comparison, just one step away, and no one wants to lose. If it weren't for the fact that Aiko Mitsui accidentally found Jerry with saliva hanging on the corner of her mouth, I'm afraid that this zuihou would not use much force.

After adding one more shot and gently pushing the ball into the hole, Aiko Mitsui reluctantly handed the club to the caddy. Then she looked at Jerry, who was standing on the side, with his hands in his trouser pockets, and couldn't help but tease, "Have you woken up, Your Excellency Big Star?" ”

Takeshi Okuda's Zuihou made a perfect one-shot putt, and it was clear that Aiko Mitsui lost.

"Sorry, I didn't get enough sleep because I shot overnight last night. And I haven't studied golf myself, so I'm just lazy and make up for sleep, hoping that it doesn't disturb your Yaxing. Jerry lightly lifted it, reached out and gestured to the caddy, then took a par and slammed a golf ball into the air along with a piece of green turf, "Opps~"

Aiko Mitsui glanced at the green grass that had been split into pieces, "It seems that it is a wise choice not to disturb your sleep." ”

"This elegant sport is not for me." Jerry smiled and handed the club to the caddy, then said to Okuda, who was standing to the side with a calm face. "Let's go, Okuda-kun, and talk to me about Toyota's hybrids."

Hybrid refers to the use of gasoline and electric drive in the car. The advantage is that when the vehicle starts and stops, it is only driven by the motor, and the engine does not work if it does not reach a certain speed, so it can keep the engine in the best working condition, with good power and low emissions. And the source of electrical energy is the engine. Just refuel.

To put it simply, there is an electric motor in the car, and there is also an engine in the car. When the vehicle is idling, assuming that it is in a traffic jam, if the battery has enough power, then it only needs to rely on the electric motor to work, which consumes electrical energy, while the engine does not need to work, in this state. There is no need to consume gasoline, so as to achieve the purpose of energy saving.

When the vehicle needs to accelerate sharply, both the engine and the electric motor work together, supported by an additional electric motor. The acceleration of the hybrid will be even faster.

When the vehicle brakes, the engine does not consume gasoline, and the energy generated by the vehicle when braking is converted into electricity to charge the battery.

When the battery is dead. Not only does it recover the electrical energy converted during braking, but the engine also recharges the battery pack.

Since all the electrical appliances on the vehicle, such as air conditioning, lighting, CD player, etc., are provided by the battery. If the vehicle itself is stationary and there is no braking force energy recuperation when the battery does not have enough power to sustain it, the engine will also charge the battery pack.

This is hybrid, the key to hybrid vehicles is the hybrid system, and its performance is directly related to the performance of hybrid vehicles.

Japan is a country poor in natural resources, since 1939, the founder of Toyota Motor, Kiichiro Toyoda, has regarded the development of high-fuel-power, reliable and durable cars as an important topic for Toyota, and in the same year, Toyota established a battery research institute and began to develop electric vehicles.

In 1973, with the outbreak of the 4th Middle East War, Shijie's economy encountered its first oil crisis. For Japan, which is almost 100 percent dependent on imports for its oil resources, its entire economic activities were greatly affected, and it immediately fell into great chaos. The same hyperinflation that swept Japan in the early postwar period once again swept through Japan, and the demand for automobiles plummeted. In this situation, Toyota has set a new starting point on the limited nature of resources, and has vigorously launched a campaign to conserve resources, energy, and reduce costs.

In the early 90s, Akihiro Wada, then vice president of Toyota, foresightly predicted the development trend of the shijie automobile industry in the 21st century - energy conservation and environmental protection. He gave Toyota's engineers a task: they had to design a car for the 21st century, which could save more than 50 percent fuel compared to conventional cars. Takeshi Uchiyamada, who was unknown within Toyota at the time, became the concrete leader of the project, and he and his team started from scratch, and eventually, the hybrid Jishu was unanimously recognized within Toyota as a way to achieve maximum fuel economy at this stage.

Okuda Shuo obviously didn't expect Jerry to say such a sentence, and a hint of surprise suddenly appeared on his calm face, like a gust of wind blowing on the surface of a calm lake. How could a star in the entertainment industry like him know this? Would he be interested in this too?

Jerry saw the surprise on Okuda's face and explained, "If it weren't for a little bit of appeal, Toyota wouldn't be our first choice." ”

"Isn't Mazda's first choice for the Tanaka consortium?"

"Frankly speaking, we are interested in Mazda's hydrogen rotary engine JISHU, but it is clear that it will take a long time for this JASH to be widely used and promoted. In contrast, hybrids have a shorter path to take. I believe that Toyota also saw this, so Toyota chose a hybrid jishu. But in any case, whether it is Tanaka, Toyota, or Mazda, we all have one thing in common, we all see the future trend of energy conservation and environmental protection. Therefore, I hope that there can be a consensus between the three of us. ”

"Tanaka's construction in the automotive field is clear." If it's just an investment intention, Okuda Shuo is very happy that this new consortium can form an intersection with the Toyota family, but judging from the tone of this guy, the Tanaka Foundation has more than just investment intentions. Toyota has always regarded automobile patents as important, which is the lifeblood of R&D companies. The idea of the management is to make hybrid power popular, even if the cost is high, and in the process of popularization, Toyota will become the maker of hybrid power specifications. Tanaka, a newcomer in the automotive field, wants to get his hands on Toyota's hybrid jishu before he has one foot in it, is he thinking things too simple?

Directly involving a newcomer to the industry in the management of patent jishu, Okuda does not think this is a wise move.

These guys, what they want to leverage, are the future of Toyota.

"So, we need Toyota's help. Of course, even without Toyota, we can take Mazda, it's just a little bit, the price we pay, will be much higher. Once Tanaka takes Mazda, hybrid jishu? I don't think Mazda's R&D Liliang is much worse than Toyota's. Once the design concept is formed, the next thing is just a matter of jishu. Or Mazda will get more Jishu patents one step earlier than Toyota. Okuda-kun doesn't want to see this day coming, does he? ”

Is this a threat?

And it's a red fruit, without a hint of disguised threat.

But it came out of Jerry's mouth, but it was such an understatement.

"By the way, Toyota's hybrid jishu, what stage has it progressed to?"

Didn't he know that he was close to touching his bottom line? He would even ask this?

And use such a relaxed tone?

Shuo Okuda couldn't understand this entertainment star all of a sudden.

Is he really an entertainment star?

No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like a simple entertainment star.

Okuda Shuo looked at Aiko Mitsui, Aiko Mitsui nodded helplessly, she had slowly gotten used to it since the day she came into contact with Nanako Tanaka.

The Tanaka family, one by one, are all monsters.

Nanako Tanaka, Bob Clemmings, Ami Harano, Jerry Rothscher? Even more so.

Aiko Mitsui still has in her mind the stupid mess she was back then, and she even needed someone to feed her. What did Nanako Tanaka do to him that made him the prince in the hearts of the Japanese people today, and the jewel in the eyes of Japanese girls. Thinking of that domineering kiss, Aiko Mitsui involuntarily touched her lower lip again.

"Jerry-kun, this is a trade secret."

"Oh ~ trade secrets." Jerry didn't care too much about the hybrid, and he also got the information about the hybrid from the information Emily had collected. After that, a perfect design concept involuntarily appeared in his mind. He just wanted to know about Toyota's research progress in the field of hybrid power, and Okuda Shuo would directly refuse, and it was expected, "Yes." So, Miss Aiko, let's talk about our cooperation. ”

What is he? Is his cheek too thick, just now he was threatened with intimidation, Chiguoguo's threat, and now he is talking about cooperation? Where did he get the confidence? Is he really just an entertainment star?

Okuda Shuo wanted to yell, please don't talk to himself, but he finally held back.

Okuda has to admit that he has lived so long in his life, and this is the first time he has met a guy like Jerry Rothschan.

Bala Bala Bala ~

He was like a man who would never be idle, and he was saying a bunch of surprising terms in his mouth, completely different from the image of sitting on a golf cart and resting on his back, and completely different from the Japanese national treasure who shone on the stage. He is even more shameless than Shoichiro Toyoda.

It's really, really an incomprehensible guy! (To be continued......)
