Chapter 1391: A New Door (Second Update)
"Boss, your speech just now, especially the last part, is really good." As soon as he arrived at the car, Wang Guoliang gave Lin Hongfei a thumbs up.
Wang Guoliang, who has lived in a political family since childhood, how could he not notice the sensitive atmosphere of the airport at that time? Although the final ending ended with everyone happy, it is unceremonious to say that if it were not for Lin Hongfei, the most rebellious queen, emphasized the role of the state and the provincial party committee and provincial government in a timely manner, it would be really hard to say what the situation would be.
Lin Hongfei smiled, his smile was a little helpless, "This is how you do things in our country, no matter what you do, the most important thing must be inseparable from the wisdom, decisiveness and support of the leader." ”
"What can we do if the situation is like this?" Wang Guoliang said with an indifferent face, he grew up in this environment since he was a child, and he took this kind of thing for granted, so he naturally didn't think there would be anything wrong, "Since our ability is not enough to resist this situation, then we can only obediently obey...... You don't know what to say, you really scared me before you said that. ”
"When I said that, everyone's faces looked good, and if I didn't say that, I couldn't even hang Zhou Daming's face, right?" Lin Hongfei asked with a smile, in politics, Wang Guoliang is obviously much more mature than himself.
"Hehe......" Wang Guoliang laughed twice, which can be regarded as a tacit acquiescence. Immediately, his face turned straight and said to Lin Hongfei, "We have made such great achievements at the Geneva Motor Show, this matter is not good to publicize, I am going to go home tomorrow and discuss with my family how to take advantage of the east wind of Geneva to set off a propaganda storm in China." ”
"Good!" Lin Hongfei agreed without saying a word, this kind of thing is the most suitable thing to be done by Wang Guoliang.
"And you, Lao Huo. What exactly is the good news? Lin Hongfei turned his head to look at Holger, who came back with him. Breich, as the head of the company's automatic transmission, this guy also followed the exhibitor, and said that he had good news to tell himself before the plane took off, but what the hell is the good news, this guy is still keeping it a secret.
"Boss, we've completed the prototype of the five-speed gearbox design, and we're testing it now, and we'll have our own five-speed automatic transmission by next year at the latest." Speaking of which. Holger. Breuich's whole person was excited and his eyebrows danced, Lin Hongfei and Holger. The relationship between Breich can be hidden from others, but it is absolutely impossible to hide from the old Wang family. What the hell is going on between Breuich. The old Wang family knew everything clearly, so at this moment he saw that the company's major shareholder, Holger. Mr. Breich was so "groveling" in front of Lin Hongfei. Wang Guoliang didn't find it strange at all.
"Five-speed automatic transmission? This is indeed good news. Lin Hongfei was really shocked when he heard this, but then, he frowned again, "Is it a mechanical-hydraulic automatic transmission?" ”
"yes," Holger. Broych's tone was full of excitement, "Boss. This is the world's first mechanical-hydraulic automatic transmission, and we ......"
"Lao Huo, there's nothing to be excited about," Lin Hongfei frowned. "Do you remember how ZF's first five-speed automatic transmission, the one used on the Mercedes-Benz W140, was controlled?" ”
The five-speed automatic transmission used on the Mercedes-Benz W140 sedan is not only the first five-speed automatic transmission in the world, but also the first microcomputer-controlled hydraulic automatic transmission in the world. How could Breich not know the way? Immediately, he said, "It's controlled by computer chips and sensors, and it's ......."
"That's right," doesn't wait for Holger. After Breich finished speaking, Lin Hongfei nodded, and his tone was extremely solemn, "Lao Huo, I think that in 10 years at most, the traditional mechanical hydraulic automatic transmission will be completely replaced by a microcomputer and sensor-controlled automatic transmission, you have made our company's first five-speed automatic transmission, which is very gratifying, but I hope you can change the direction, no longer limited to the traditional mechanical hydraulic automatic transmission, the focus should be shifted to the new microcomputer-controlled automatic transmission, this aspect, You can cooperate with the company's automotive electronics R&D laboratory in the United States, well, at this stage, the first step is to withdraw from the reliable mechanical hydraulic automatic transmission is desirable, but I hope you can come up with our own as soon as possible, with our own intellectual property rights of microcomputer-controlled automatic transmission, not only five-speed, four-speed automatic transmission should also develop microcomputer-type, within 20 years, four-speed automatic transmission will not be eliminated, on the contrary, will gradually become the mainstream and popular choice in the market. ”
"Okay, boss, I know what to do." Holger. Broich nodded without hesitation, "I'll arrange it when I get back." ”
Holger. Broich wasn't smart enough, but he was good at it: he knew he wasn't smart enough, so he never thought about it, and only wanted to do the job that his boss had given him...... This is actually Holger. Breich's greatest strength: being able to recognize himself, having a precise positioning of himself, and never doing anything beyond his ability.
"Wouldn't it? I think the mechanical-hydraulic automatic transmission has a simple structure, and the control system is also simple, so what is the ...... of "On the contrary, and resolutely carry out any orders of Lin Hongfei. Broich is different, Wang Guoliang is a little skeptical of Lin Hongfei's words, and he also knows that he is following Lin Hongfei, in fact, the identity of the assistant and student is more than the secretary, so he has to ask more about things that he doesn't understand and don't understand.
"The reason is very simple, it can be understood literally, automatic transmission, what is automatic? Naturally, it can automatically adjust the gears according to different needs, to put it bluntly, even if humans need this gearbox The biggest difference between the gearbox and the manual gearbox is that there is a certain 'intelligence', and the ability to 'think' by itself, on different road surfaces, what does the driver's different frame actions mean: the same is stepping on the accelerator, does he want to accelerate or want to improve torque output? Do you want to downshift or upshift? But can a conventional mechanical-hydraulic automatic transmission react like this? Obviously, he can't, he can only make targeted gear changes according to the various situations in which the designer realizes the design, and in my opinion, this automatic transmission can't actually be called 'automatic'. ”
"And the real automatic transmission, is to meet this, at least to have some such foundations, such as the same speed of 80 kilometers, whether to run in third gear or in fourth gear? The same is the gas pedal, is the driver's driving intention at the moment to overtake with the third gear or to speed up with the fourth gear? Only an automatic transmission that can understand these intentions of the driver is a real automatic transmission in my opinion, and in order to do this, a mechanical-hydraulic automatic transmission is obviously not possible, only a microcomputer-controlled automatic transmission. ”
Lin Hongfei's words made Wang Guoliang and Holger. Broich was dumbfounded when he heard this, especially Wang Guoliang, whose mouth opened into an O-shape, "God, if this is really the case, then isn't this automatic transmission equivalent to having a brain?" What must be done to do this? ”
He has also driven a lot of automatic transmission cars, and he has also encountered these doubts that Lin Hongfei said, which is why he actually doesn't like automatic transmission cars very much: obviously he stepped on the accelerator deeply and wanted to downshift and accelerate to overtake, but the automatic transmission was upshifted, and the speed was slowly lifted, and he couldn't lift it up for a long time, he couldn't overtake the car, and he could kill people; Sometimes it's the other way around.
It makes people feel that this gearbox seems to be deliberately working against itself, which is far less convenient than the manual gearbox: Lao Tzu downshifts if he wants to downshift, upshifts when he wants to upshift, everything is Lao Tzu and I have the final say.
"That's pretty much what it means," Lin Hongfei nodded, "As for how to make the gearbox so 'smart' and be able to understand the driver's intentions, there are two prerequisites, one is naturally that the automatic transmission must be introduced into computer control, which is the hardware foundation......; This is more of a test of the level and ability of software developers, but I don't think it's so difficult, now computer technology is advancing by leaps and bounds, isn't the computer already able to play chess with people, since even such a difficult thing as playing chess can be done by the computer, not to mention just an automatic gearbox with a learning function? ”
Hearing Lin Hongfei say this, Wan Guoliang and Holger. Breich stopped talking, they were all thinking about Lin Hongfei's words, especially Holger. Broich, he vaguely had a feeling in his heart: the boss is opening a door for himself, and there are countless wonderful and magical things inside this door!
This feeling makes Holger. Broich trembled with excitement!
But people who are unhappy will always appear at such times, when Lin Hongfei was happy, Lin Hongfei's mobile phone rang, since the moment Wang Guoliang came back, Wang Guoliang, who automatically took over the post from Gu Guangming's hands, naturally picked up the phone, and after a while, Wang Guoliang's expression when he looked at Lin Hongfei was already full of weirdness, "Boss, Citibank called, they said ......"
"Say what?" Seeing that Wang Guoliang seemed to be a little difficult to speak, Lin Hongfei frowned, and he suddenly had a feeling in his heart: Probably Li. The means by which Citibank countered itself, which Iacocca said earlier, are now starting to be launched. (To be continued......)
