Chapter Eighty-Three: King George V
Why? Ciric's expression became serious: "Because, Rolls-Royce doesn't just produce cars, they also produce aircraft engines!" Moreover, the engine of the most advanced fighter in the UK! Even if Rolls-Royce does not agree to our acquisition, we will suppress this company to bankruptcy! ”
Of course, Ciric knows that the Spitfire of later generations is flying all over the sky, relying on the engine of Rolls-Royce!
Without an engine with advanced performance, no matter how good the aircraft design is, it is useless! How good are Merlin engines? Look at the fact that even the Mustang used this engine in later generations, and you will know!
If Rolls-Royce can be moved to Germany, it can improve the research and development level of German fighter engines! If they don't want to, then keep bankrupting Rolls-Royce! Let their Merlin engine not be able to continue to be developed! A large number of R&D personnel will be poached into BMW and Mercedes-Benz companies with high salaries!
Engineers who have the ideal of serving the country and think that they must contribute their wisdom to the motherland are a minority after all! Most of the engineers have a love for machinery, and they need a bigger stage to show their talents!
There are even more people, in the face of money, they will be tempted, there is nothing that cannot be solved by a million pounds, if there is, then two million pounds!
Like now... Well, watch the show!
At this moment, in the distance, there was a sudden commotion!
A luxurious and noble sedan came from a distance, and in front of it were a dozen honor guards riding tall horses, with feathers high on their heads. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Royal family! That's the royal Rolls-Royce!
Everyone cheered with excitement, it was the king! His Majesty the King is here!
Upstairs, Ciric's eyes widened.
King George V!
George V, full name George Frederick Ernst Albert, second son of Edward VII and Empress Alexandra, cousin of German Emperor Wilhelm II!
In other words, the current king of England is actually a German!
It's a pity that this guy didn't remember the kindness of the past at all, and in the First World War, he gave up his German surname and renamed the royal family "Windsor", inspiring the British people, fighting with Germany, and finally beating his cousin down!
The current George V does not have much affection for Germany, he has completely sided with the British!
This time Ciric came to England, because of his identity, Ciric actually didn't have any chance to meet George V, and Ciric didn't care about it, anyway, this old guy would die in a few years.
Unexpectedly, the King of England actually came to participate in this experiment!
In fact, the current George V, the health is not very good, a serious illness a few years ago, so that he almost lost his strong body, but he is still keen on various activities.
For example, the British called George V "King of Sailors". It was because he was still keen to participate in speedboat races despite his illness.
His King's speedboat "Britannia" was his favorite, and for every regatta, George V would deliberately wear a navy uniform, radiant and radiant, as if he had returned to his youth.
Rowing and sporting activities, stamp collecting, were George V's favourites.
Now, George V heard that there was a car test here, which was the last Rolls-Royce car case that made a lot of noise, so George V came.
"Your Majesty, it's a great pleasure for you to be here for this experiment." Seeing the king coming down from above, dressed in his characteristic uniform, Royce was quite excited.
George V nodded: "I heard that the performance of the Rolls-Royce car is to be tested here, so I specially brought the Rolls-Royce from the royal family." What do you think? Do you want to let this car of the royal family also participate in a race? Personally, I'm quite satisfied with Rolls-Royce. ”
Hearing the king's words, Royce was quite moved.
As the king of England, George V was quite competent.
The Rolls-Royce incident had a great impact on Royce, and the car almost lost the trust of the people, and the people betrayed their relatives.
However, after all, Rolls-Royce is a large car manufacturer and engine manufacturer in the United Kingdom, and if Rolls-Royce falls, it will be quite unfavorable to Britain, and at this time, His Majesty the King resolutely stands on the side of Rolls-Royce!
Although Rolls-Royce's performance is well promoted, it is still difficult to convince the public, you know, this is a well-maintained car pulled out of Rolls-Royce! It's pretty good in all respects! Perhaps, reinforcement was also carried out.
This car, whether it can pass through the most potholed sections here, or at the highest speed, is not convincing! On the contrary, if it is any car, such as this Rolls-Royce of the king, it will be telling!
Rolls-Royce cars, no quality problems!
Have faith in the king's car? Of course!
You know, the royal family's car, the maintenance is naturally better! Moreover, when it comes to production, it is the most refined! This kind of car, absolutely no problem!
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your support." Royce was so excited that his beard was shaking.
"Well, then we'll be here, and we'll see how this car performs." George V said.
Inside the long front of the car, the engine was roaring, and the royal driver had come down and replaced it with Rolls-Royce's test personnel, and at the same time, Rolls-Royce technicians were also circling the car, and now there were so many people, they couldn't open the engine compartment to check, but they could deduce just by sight and sound.
"No, there's not much fuel." "If you want to finish the race, you need to refuel a little more," Lefssi said. ”
With just one glance and a bottom-out indication of the oil gauge, Lefssi spotted this careless big problem.
The fuel tank cap in the back was opened, and a barrel of gasoline was poured into it.
Now, it's all set!
Begin!
In front of everyone's eyes, watch this extravagant and luxurious Mirage 2 car, from the starting position, start quickly!
In this era, Rolls-Royce car engines are the most advanced! Rolls-Royce cars that can easily accelerate to 100 km/h!
In this case, a small bump can cause huge problems!
I saw that the wheels of this car sometimes pressed into the potholes, and sometimes bounced up! When it's moving at a fairly fast speed, the car even flies!
In this case, the car is still in good condition without any problems!
Looking at the chic performance of the car, everyone present cheered.
Royce is very happy that after this performance, the accusation of the defects in the performance of his own car will be eliminated!
"Oh, no!" Just then, Royce suddenly shouted.
