Chapter 1270: I've Been Annoying Recently (Fourth Shift, Fourth Shift)

The Guqi Provincial Institute of Non-metallic Materials is the 53rd Research Institute under the command of the Ordnance Industry Corporation, and the cooperation of the Non-metallic Materials Research Institute means that the Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has to deal with the military system, but this time it was unusually smooth, and it didn't even take Lin Hongfei to come forward to reach a preliminary cooperation intention.

The reason is very simple, the Institute of Non-metallic Materials is a research institution under the ordnance system, which is also in the territory of Guqi Province, and the influence of Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. on the leaders of Guqi Province up and down, large and small, is a leverage.

As far as the military system is concerned, since the Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and the Four Corners Tire Factory jointly contributed money to carry out this project of hanging rubber tracks and rubber tracks, the military industry system is naturally happy to see it...... It is nothing more than a research project on rubber tracks, which is not a big deal, but with sufficient financial guarantees, the progress of the entire research project will be greatly accelerated, which is naturally a good thing.

"Boss, the Organizing Committee of the Geneva International Motor Show has sent an invitation letter to our company, inviting us to participate in next year's Geneva Motor Show......" Cao Jun took a big white envelope and reported to Lin Hongfei.

"Geneva Motor Show ......" Lin Hongfei paused slightly, "It's in April next year, right?" ”

"Yes." For the boss to be able to know such a detailed way, Cao Jun was already surprised, and when he heard the words, he immediately said.

Lin Hongfei groaned in his heart: It is already December, which means that there are about 4 months of time left for him......

"By the way, there's another thing," Cao Jun hesitated for a moment, and then took out a stack of foreign-language newspapers, "These newspapers are sent back from France, Spain, Italy, and Germany, and they have some bad comments about us. ”

Lin Hongfei didn't even look at it. He asked lightly, "What did you say?" ”

"There are many, some question the strength of our company's research and development, some slander the performance of our Weilong sports car, and some think that our company has plagiarized the design of other car manufacturers......" Speaking of this, Cao Jun's face was already red with anger, "Anyway, everyone who says good things about us." ”

"Hehe, it's normal, our car poked at someone else's sore spot, can we still not allow others to scold my mother?" Lin Hongfei waved his hand. Unimpressed.

In fact, these statements reported by Cao Jun are not uncommon, at the beginning of the advent of the Weilong sports car, some European and American media said as if someone had been violently exploded chrysanthemum, and the power output of the Weilong sports car 1100 horsepower looks very powerful. In fact, it's just a piece of two V12 engines together, which is not a good thing. The one who said this. Completely ignoring the reality of being able to "put together" two V12 engines is a great feat. I had enough strength to speak ill of Guqi Provincial Industrial Manufacturing Co., Ltd....... It is also a matter of course that Europe, where all kinds of supercars are rampant, is no match for a car manufacturer from the desert of the automobile industry, which is simply a shame for all the top sports car manufacturers in Europe! Bad words? It's light to say bad things.

"Of course, we can't always let others speak ill of us, there are still countermeasures...... Did you get into an argument? ”

Lin Hongfei, who has experienced all kinds of eyeball hype in later generations. Naturally, I know that it is not good to blindly say that it is good for a thing, and it is not good to blindly say that it is not good. Lin Hongfei is not afraid that someone will say bad things about his products, and there is an argument to attract attention, but if he always argues a little, everyone will slowly lose interest, and he needs to find a new focus for the onlookers.

"This ...... But it got up. Cao Jun nodded,

"Well, you reply to the Geneva Motor Show Organizing Committee, saying that our company will participate in the exhibition as scheduled, and you will leave the specific matters of the exhibition to Mr. Rostock to arrange...... In addition, you can let the wind go now, and say that at that time we will release a new high-performance engine at the Geneva Motor Show, and we will release a concept sports car based on this high-performance engine, and it is reported that this engine will have the potential to exceed 90KW......"

"More than 90KW per liter?" Cao Jun's eyes widened suddenly.

After working in the kilometer for so long, Cao Jun knows too well what this number means, the company's current main 1.8-liter displacement engine is 117 horsepower, which is 86KW, which is 1.8 liters of displacement, a simple calculation, the liter power is only 47.8KW, if the power of this engine exceeds 90KW, is it not equal to nearly twice the company's main engine? Such a large increase in power means a huge technical difficulty, can such a large technical difficulty really be achieved? Cao Jun couldn't believe it.

"Oh, by the way, remember to emphasize it when you advertise it, it's a naturally aspirated NA engine."

Lin Hongfei's tone was extremely flat, but in Cao Jun's ears, it was like dropping a bombshell! The liter power is more than 90KW, he just thought it was a turbocharged or supercharged engine, but what did the boss say? It turned out to be a naturally aspirated engine?! Oh my God!

"Go ahead, I know what I know." Facing Cao Jun's extremely surprised gaze, Lin Hongfei waved his hand.

——————————————————————————

Pratt. The Whitney Company has been annoyed lately.

There is no doubt that Pratt. The Whitney Company is still one of the world's three giants in the field of aviation power, but Pratt. Whitney inadvertently turned around, but was stunned to find a fact that they couldn't believe: Pratt & Whitney took the lead in the field of small aero engines and could also occupy a place in the field of high-thrust aero engines, but the market was almost no longer in the mid-range aero engine market with 7,000 kg to 10,000 kg thrust.

Pratt. Whitney's original flagship product in this market was the JT8D series turbofan engine, and the early model of the Boeing 737 was used in this series of engines, but now, the damn Boeing 737 "saw something different" and turned into the arms of CFM International's CFM56 series engine, which was jointly invested by General Electric and Snakma, and the biggest piece of the cake of JT8D was snatched away by General Electric.

Of course, there will be people who say that you Pratt. Whitney's JT8D series lost its Boeing 737.Isn't there still IAE's 2500 series engines and the exclusive Airbus A320?

Yes, at least that's what it sounds.

As the largest shareholder of International Aero Engine Company (IAE), Pratt. Whitney occupies 32.5% of IAE's shares, just as CFM International's CFM-5B series engine kicked out Pratt & Whitney's JT8D series turbofan engine and successfully became a special engine for the Boeing 737 series, when the Airbus A320 project was first established, it was determined that the IAE company's V2500 turbofan engine was the "queen" engine of the Airbus A320 and its subsequent development.

But the analysts who did this analysis must have forgotten that there is another serious problem: Airbus has been operating at a loss for 22 years since its establishment.

After 22 years of losses, even if the Europeans have money, everyone can't help but complain: who can tell us how long we will lose money?

Unlike the Boeing 737 series, which has been fully tested in the international market and has been fully verified for safety and reliability, the Airbus A320 has been launched for a short time, and airlines are still hesitant to purchase the Airbus A320, and they are more willing to purchase the verified Boeing 737 series, and naturally, the sales of the Airbus A320 are not very ideal.

The situation of Airbus A320 is not ideal, and the sales of IAE's V2500 engine are naturally not ideal. However, after entering the 90s, McDonnell Douglas almost showed a trend of falling under the diving line, resulting in the V2522-D5 engine originally planned to be installed on the MD-90-10 and the V2528-D5 engine installed on the MD-90-50 were sold out, and only a pitiful 18 units were sold!

All these figures silently illustrate that in the 8,000 kg to 10,000 kg thrust class of the medium thrust class of civil aviation engine market, there has been a gradual absence of Pratt. The Whitney Company, one of the world's three major civil aircraft engine manufacturing giants, is a part.

Also, look at the share of market share to know that in the world of civil aero engine market, General Electric undoubtedly ranks first, British Rawls. Royce ranked second, and Pratt. The Whitney Company could only make it to third place...... At the moment, it seems that Pu. Hui, the third child, was pulled down by the eldest and the second child more and more distance.

At this time, Acton and Jessica, who took the initiative to come to the door, were naturally affected by Pratt. The Whitney Company attaches great importance to it.

"Mr. Acton, if my understanding is correct, your company intends to develop a large regional jet based on the Russian TU-134B, right?" To show the importance of Acton and Jessica, Pratt. They were personally received by Eric, CEO of the Whitney Company's Civil Aviation Power Division.

"Yes, you're absolutely right, and beyond that, we're going to be building on this aircraft to tailor luxury private business jets for some of our big clients, and our Northshire 100 jets have a natural advantage in terms of interior space...... Mr. Eric, I need to remind you that this aircraft is called the North-County 100, not the TU-134B. Acton's attitude was reserved with a little bit of arrogance. (To be continued......)
