Chapter 546 Mercedes-Benz AMG ONE, Headquarters Negotiation (4k 2-in-1)

Turn on the faucet and wash off the lipstick on your face with water, the strawberries on your neck can't be washed off, just like the traces left after cupping, they are all broken capillaries, but Xia Yu has special aftercare skills.

With a gentle touch of both hands, the traces disappear, which is very magical.

If the system is conscious and knows that Xia Yu uses the absolute control Buff for this kind of thing, maybe the qi will be automatically uninstalled, but isn't this the use of the Buff, assisting the user from all aspects.

When she came out of the bathroom after washing, Maria was awake.

"Good morning, Maria!"

"Early. ”

Mary's voice was a little hoarse, she must have cried yesterday, and people of great joy and sorrow are the most like this.

"What's the plan for the day, if not, let's go shopping together, Albert and I will be back home tomorrow." ”

Xia Yu sent out an invitation.

The purpose of his coming to Yingguo is to fulfill his promise, and now that his promise has been fulfilled, it is time for him to return to China, after all, there is still a lot of things waiting for him in the country!

"So soon? I also said that I would treat you well for two days when tonight's show is over. ”

Mary sat up and said.

"No, you're making progress too fast, and I have to go back to China to catch up with you, and business matters can't be separated from me. ”

They are also bosom friends, but Xia Yu is really busy, Jierui has good news, under the leadership of Liu Gong, the factory's R&D department has eaten through the information he left, readjusted the production line, and began to produce new batteries.

At this critical time, Xia Yu will definitely go back to preside over the work, and by the way, improve his piano skills and impact the realm above the chief.

"Sherlock, you're a real genius, and I'm just a stupid girl who works hard compared to you. ”

Maria knew that Xia Yu's business was very big, otherwise he couldn't afford to buy a stupid cannon, and he couldn't afford to buy her CroallΒ· McEwen。

In addition to taking care of business, he can also play the cello so well, which is why she admires him.

"A stupid man can't be the chief, and I'm looking forward to your performance tonight. ”

Xia Yu shook his head and said.

Foreigners are also divided into modest and proud, and Mary in his eyes is too modest.

After Maria finished washing, the two went downstairs for breakfast, and then Xia Yu didn't drive, so they walked around the neighborhood and chatted about what had happened in the past year.

As the night approached, Xia Yu sent Maria back to the Royal Albert Hall, and tonight's concert was even more beautiful than last night, especially the section of Maria's solo, with the blessing of the Si style piano, she exerted 120% of her strength.

The performance was a complete success, and the Sanremo Symphony Orchestra returned with honors, while Maria stayed for an extra day and accompanied Xia Yu to Northampton.

Xia Yu's last trip during the day was to visit the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Motorradle's Brackley plant in Northampton.

It's all coming to Yingguo, how can you not look at the championship team of F1?

But it's not right, Mercedes-Benz is not a national brand, why is its F1 team in Yingguo?

In fact, not only Mercedes-Benz, but also Honda, Renault, and Red Bull are all in Yingguo, and there is more F1 atmosphere here.

Driving the Bugatti Chiron into the Brackley factory, Xia Yu still felt a little strange, Ying Hair is both an ally and an enemy, and there have been many battles in history, but fortunately, this is a national convoy in Ying Country, otherwise he is really afraid that someone will smash his car.

No, the hair seems to be even more difficult to deal with?

"Welcome, Mr. Sherlock. ”

The attitude of the person who greeted him was not bad, and what Xia Yu was worried about should not happen.

"Hello. ”

The first thing to say hello when you get out of the car is the team's technical director, James Ellison, who is also the former Ferrari F1 director.

The Ferrari period was bleak, but when it came to Mercedes, he rejuvenated the second spring of his career, and today he is in charge of entertaining Xia Yu.

In fact, this is nothing, Boss Xia has this card, after all, his AMGGTR also arrived in advance, and under the matchmaking of the system, he has a relationship with the senior management of Mercedes-Benz.

"Mr. Sherlock, we are now actively preparing for the first race in No. 17 Qiangzhou, from the engine development department to the Petronas Circuit Laboratory. ”

The group walked to the factory, James introduced them to the recent situation of the team, he thought that Xia Yu was a die-hard fan of the Mercedes-Benz team, but he didn't know that this product only knew more about the "ancient times", and Hamilton created the new century that really didn't know much, and he was more interested in the car than in the event.

"What about your chariots, won't this be kept secret from me!"

"Of course not, W10 was on Silverstone in pre-race testing in February, and she was the fastest. ”

As the team's technical director, James is very confident in the new car.

"Do you sell your W09?"

Xia Yu asked about last year's old car, and don't even think about the new car.

"In fact, we've only auctioned W04. ”

James is talking about the 13-year-old car, and the Mercedes-Benz team from 14 years ago is like a hanging, winning the championship for five consecutive years.

"Looks like it's not going to work. ”

Sometimes the money is not at the top of his ability, unless he can buy the whole Mercedes from Daimler.

"MR. SHERLOCK, YOU CAN ACTUALLY BUY AN AMGONE, ITS ENGINE IS A PERFECT COMBINATION OF THE W06, W07 and W08 GENERATIONS OF FORMULA 1 RACING ENGINE TECHNOLOGY. ”

James's tone was like that of a salesman, but Xia Yu had heard of the car.

"Is that ProjectONE?"

"Yes, the name of last year was changed. ”

Mercedes ProjectONE, a hybrid supercar unveiled by Mercedes-Benz at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show, was renamed AMG last year, but instead of being built at the AMG plant, it was built at the Brackley plant of its F1 team.

This car is built on a 1.6T V6 engine, which looks awkward, but this is the engine on the F1 car, and since 2014 into the hybrid V6 era, the sound has become more and more unpleasant.

Don't be, my self-sucking, don't be, my F1, if you like F1 to the core, Xia Yu can really squeeze out two tears, but now he can't even squeeze out crocodile tears.

"Can you take me to the production floor?"

"Of course, you are our honored guest. ”

James stretched out his hand to ask, and the group turned a corner and came to AMGONE's production workshop.

This hybrid supercar is limited to 275 units, and more than 1,000 people are currently pre-ordered, if Xia Yu wants one, Mercedes-Benz will not hesitate to kick out a few people and give one to him.

IT'S A PITY THAT XIA YU HAS NO INTEREST IN HYBRID SUPERCARS, AND HE HASN'T BOUGHT ANY OF THE THREE LEGENDARY GOD CARS, AND HE WON'T BUY AMGONE NOW, BUT AFTER SEEING THE ACTUAL CAR, HE HAS OTHER IDEAS.

"When will your car be delivered?"

"The original plan was to be delivered this year, but from the current situation, it is going to be delayed. ”

JAMES IS IN CHARGE OF TECHNOLOGY, AND AMGONE'S PLAN TO USE F1 ENGINE TECHNOLOGY IS NATURALLY ALSO INVOLVED, SO HE KNOWS ABOUT THIS, AND AN OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT WILL BE MADE SOON.

The reason for the delay is that the F1 engine is really powerful, even with the crankshaft, pistons and electronics rebuilt, it still idles at 4,000 rpm.

It was definitely not on the road, it had to be cut again and again, cut to 1200, and at the same time, it also had to meet different emissions and noise regulations around the world, and the delivery was delayed.

It's a bad thing for fans, but it's an opportunity for Xia Yu.

"I think it can be further improved in the period before delivery. ”

Xia Yu stated his purpose.

James looked at him, what did he say?

"4 electric motors, 100 kg lithium battery, pure electric range is only a pitiful 24km, don't you think this battery is too spicy?"

"This, I can't be the master. ”

The technical director really doesn't care about this, but Xia Yu can talk to his boss directly.

A phone call was made to Feng Manxue, and the itinerary was changed temporarily, and they had to go to the country before they went back.

If the car is not opened, it will be directly flown back to China, and they will take the car after getting off the plane.

"Is this your daily routine?"

Coming out of the factory, Maria and Xia Yu said.

She knew about Xia Yu about music before, and it was the first time she had seen this side of him.

"It's not life, it's work, I'm a scumbag in life. ”

Xia Yu blew himself up without any burden, since it is difficult to find a bosom friend, it is natural to know everything.

"I don't believe it, I've never seen such an honest scumbag!"

Maria didn't believe it, or she was too unattractive.

"Alas, no one believes the truth these days, do women like to listen to lies?"

Xia Yu said with emotion, which made Ji Yang on the side have the urge to beat people.

Do you listen to what this is talking about, and do you mean that stupid women are so stupid, thanks to his girlfriends, they don't mean stupid.

"OLD XIA, DO YOU WANT TO WIN THIS BATCH OF AMGONE'S ORDERS?"

Ji Yang opened his mouth and asked, contempt is contempt, Xia Yu's business operations are still worth learning.

"No, that's unfair to the battery manufacturer, I'm just offering one solution to make the car stronger. ”

It is a very common operation to add configuration to the car, and the battery pack can also be selected, the short battery life is cheap, and the long battery life is expensive, and for a supercar, 100 kg is not a small weight.

With the same capacity and half the weight, owners who can afford this car are not bad for money, and I believe they will make the most correct choice.

What about Xia Yu, what good is it for him to do this?

It can only be said that the benefits are not too much, take a Mercedes-Benz hitchhiker, or the most high-end hybrid supercar, this is like the CATL era that got BMW's tens of billions of orders, and it will start to fork from now on.

It was relatively simple to temporarily change the route in Europe, and Feng Manxue quickly dealt with the relevant matters, and the three people who boarded the plane went to the country.

Maria also went with her, and she was temporarily idle after completing the exchange performance, taking advantage of this time she wanted to know more about Xia Yu, but the more she knew, the more frightened she became, he even had a private jet, not to mention that the flight attendants on the plane were so beautiful.

It's hard to say that what he said is true, and he is a scumbag in life?

The scumbag doesn't eat the grass next to the nest, Xia Yu is here to be pleasing to the eye, even if there is a 1 in 10,000 probability that something happens, then this person can't stay with him.

If you seduce him today, you will be able to seduce his son tomorrow, which is not conducive to the physical and mental development of children.

Soon, the Sherlock landed on the runway of Stuttgart Airport, where Mercedes-Benz headquarters are located.

It's quite grand, it is worthy of the incense left by the system, Xia Yu has received it all.

After confirming Xia Yu's identity, the group rushed to the Mercedes-Benz headquarters, Feng Manxue also followed into the car, and on the way, she printed out all the information passed by Jierui and held it in her arms all the way.

This time I came out in a hurry, and I was in a hurry, so I could only let the life secretary make a temporary cameo as a working secretary.

All the way from Stuttgart, in fact, Porsche is also in the city, but there have been no good cars in the past two years, and Xia Yu is not interested in visiting it, so it is better to go straight to the main map to go to the headquarters of Meiben!

Soon they arrived, Xia Yu looked at the huge three-pronged star emblem standing on the headquarters building, and his heart was extremely emotional.

Carl Benz built the first human car, and more than 100 years later, mankind slowly decided to abandon the internal combustion engine and enter the automotive electric age.

Mercedes-Benz can't stay out of it, although the signature oil car is still being built, but the hybrid supercar and hybrid S-class are out.

If you don't reform, you will die, and no one can stop the trend of the times, which is not ordinary cruelty.

As for Xia Yu, he shouted that he would not buy trams or hybrids, but in his heart he wanted to do the business of trams, and he was afraid that he would be indispensable to the gravediggers of internal combustion engines.

There's no way, he also conforms to the times, but he still has a little persistence.

The motorcade drove to the gate of the headquarters building, and saw several big men in suits waiting for him at the door.

Xia Yu had done his homework before he came, and there was no current Mercedes-Benz CEO Dieter Cai Che in the crowd, but there was a future CEO, Kang Linsong, who was also the first foreign CEO of Mercedes-Benz, and he is now the head of global R&D at Daimler.

The card, he will take office in May this year, and he will greet him in person at this time, and the face is definitely enough.

"Hello, Mr. Xia Yu. ”

As soon as he got off the car, Kang Linsong greeted him in Chinese, but he would say so.

"Hello, Mr. Kang Linsong. ”

Two hands of different skin colors were held together, and the two sides walked into the headquarters together without much greeting.

Unlike the old CEO Cai Che, Kang Linsong is a staunch electric faction, which is the fundamental reason why he was elected by the board of directors as the new CEO.

"In fact, I came to China at the beginning of the month, because I had a contract with LΓΌrssen and had been staying in Bremen, so I couldn't come to visit at the first time. ”

Xia Yu's eyes didn't blink, and he was talking nonsense that was seven points true and three points false, which could effectively close the distance.

"Oh, did Mr. Xia buy a yacht, I personally like the brand Leshun. ”

"Then you are too discerning, after negotiating the contract, I went to Yingguo and looked at the AMGONE project. ”

didn't go far, Xia Yu went straight to the topic.

PS: In reality, Mercedes-Benz and Ningde announced in-depth cooperation in August 2020, of course, they also bet on other battery companies, and this time they were preempted by the protagonist.
