Tang Yong's mouth was open, and he didn't close it for a long time.

After a long time, Tang Yong let out a long sigh, and looked at Lin Hongfei with a strange and admiring expression, "Mr. Lin, dare to ask Daimler to purchase automatic transmissions, or their current mainstream automatic transmissions, I don't know if I admire you or admire you, this is impossible at all!" ”

"I don't have a lot of hope, but it's always a way," Lin Hongfei said, and couldn't help but sigh, "Aisin, ZF, Jetco and DSI have all been contacted, and none of them are willing to provide us with automatic transmissions, but Datang, you should know which of our cars is really a pity that it is not equipped with automatic transmissions." ”

Hearing Lin Hongfei's words, Tang Yong couldn't help but be silent, just like what Lin Hongfei said, which car designed by Lin Hongfei is really excellent, such an excellent car, if it can be equipped with an automatic transmission, it will immediately increase the sense of grade by at least two levels, if you can only use a manual transmission, it will be pulled down immediately...... Although now our own big Audi does not have automatic transmission models.

"Then ......" Tang Yong didn't know what Lu Dao said for a while, hesitated for a moment, and asked Lin Hongfei, "Mr. Lin, are you sure?" ”。

"Thirty percent." Lin Hongfei smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe we have to prepare for bleeding." ”

"Thirty percent sure?" Tang Yong's eyes couldn't help but light up, compared with the direct refusal when he contacted the four automatic transmissions before, in Tang Yong's opinion, Sancheng's certainty was already very high, "Since we have such a high certainty, then we have to try everything we say." ”

Lin Hongfei nodded silently, Sancheng's grasp is indeed not low.

……………………

But Daimler's reaction was beyond Mr. Lin's imagination, and they refused to supply not only a four-speed automatic transmission to North County Industrial Manufacturing Company, but even a three-speed automatic transmission, which had long been phased out.

In the face of this result, Felix also felt a little embarrassed, in his opinion, the company should be able to consider providing a four-speed gearbox to the North County City Industrial Manufacturing Company, after all, this is not a high-end thing, I didn't expect the company's directors to hate the North County City Industrial Manufacturing Company to such an extent, they didn't ask the price at all, and directly rejected Lin Hongfei's request.

At this moment, even Felix felt a trace of resentment in his heart towards the company he served: since the development of the company can no longer be hindered, will those of us who work hard for you have a chance to earn benefits?!

"Lin, I can't help it, this is the decision of one of the directors of our company, and he successfully persuaded most of the directors," Felix smiled helplessly at Lin Hongfei, "I'm sorry, but please believe that this result is not what I want to see." ”

Lin Hongfei was silent, he didn't speak, but the expression on his face became colder and colder, this coldness, even Felix couldn't help but feel a burst of shock, and couldn't help but say, "Lin, I'm sorry......"

"Mr. Felix, you don't have to think like that at all," Lin Hongfei suddenly spoke, he raised his hand to interrupt Felix's words, "Although I regret that this cooperation was not successful, in order to show my gratitude to you, there is a piece of advice, would you like to listen?" ”

"I'm listening." Felix nodded again and again, although he was very dismissive of Lin Hongfei's words, but at this moment, Felix, who felt somewhat ashamed in his heart, was still rarely humble.

"First of all, I would like to congratulate Daimler AG, your new W140 model is a perfect car, whether it is the four-speed automatic transmission that has been upgraded from mechanical hydraulic to microcomputer control, or the non-speed automatic transmission fitted to the top of the range." …,

"Thank you for your compliment," Felix nodded reservedly, thanking Lin Hongfei, but the expression on his face was a look of pride, "Please believe that Mercedes-Benz is the representative of luxury cars in the world, and he will definitely not let you down." ”

"Actually, I'm already disappointed."

"Huh?" Felix's brow furrowed instantly! He didn't expect Lin Hongfei to drop such a sentence, after the initial shock, Felix's first reaction was anger! Are you disappointed? Why are you disappointed? What right do you have to be disappointed?!

Lin Hongfei didn't say much, he casually took the leather briefcase he brought with him, took out a piece of paper from it, and threw it in front of Felix like garbage, "But according to my calculations, your company's four-speed automatic transmission and non-speed automatic transmission are not perfect, and in some special cases, some mistakes occur, some mistakes, and even fatal!" Mr. Felix, you may not believe it, but you can confirm the above questions to your company's R&D department...... As an added reminder, the questions listed above are just some of the questions that come out of the question. ”

Felix, who was originally still disdainful, suddenly changed his face when he saw the top line of words on the piece of paper that Lin Hongfei threw over like garbage!

The sentence that just came to his lips: "May I ask Mr. Lin, how many Mercedes-Benzes have you driven?" The words were swallowed back by Felix alive, his expression was as frightened as if he had seen a ghost, and his voice was extremely dry, "You...... How did you know the Tao? ”

The problems listed on the piece of paper thrown by Lin Hongfei are not just words, but things that are really true, such as the top one about the control software of this microcomputer-controlled four-speed automatic transmission, Lin Hongfei listed several problems that may occur with this automatic transmission under some special circumstances, and the most serious can even directly lead to the gearbox being locked!

Think about it, what a disaster it would mean if your gearbox suddenly locked up on the speeding highway?

This problem has been confirmed by Daimler's R&D testers and is being solved intensively.

The sixth-generation Mercedes-Benz S-class, that is, the "Tiger Head Ben" series, codenamed W140, is known as the most perfect S-class sedan of the last generation of Mercedes-Benz, but few people know that this car was not perfect at the beginning of its birth, because it used too advanced technology, and the computer program of this era is not very perfect, the four-speed automatic transmission and the non-speed automatic transmission controlled by the microcomputer may have some special circumstances in some extreme cases.

Although these special situations only appear under extremely special driving conditions, in the eyes of Mercedes-Benz S-Class cars around the world, this situation is absolutely not allowed to appear, for the simple reason that they bought the Mercedes-Benz S-Class because it is a perfect luxury car, but now, this car has become imperfect, what a disaster it means for Mercedes-Benz, it is simply self-evident!

Looking at this thin piece of paper, Felix's two hands were trembling slightly, looking at Lin Hongfei's eyes as if he was looking at a devil, and it was full of fear!

"It doesn't matter how I know about it, it's important that I'm curious about whether Daimler has the idea and willingness to actively solve the problem." Of course, Lin Hongfei would not say that almost all senior car designers knew about this matter twenty years later, but this indifferent attitude made Felix's heart more and more afraid.

Mercedes-Benz spent more than $500 million in public relations expenses to keep the news from circulating, and in the subsequent facelift, all the major problems found were rectified one by one, and then there was a "perfect tiger head run", but although the news did not circulate, it directly led to the market share of ZF (ZF), which supplied automatic transmissions to Mercedes-Benz, decreased by 5 percentage points, and these problems have also been circulating in the circle of designers. Even the rectification plan was taken out by everyone, and for Lin Hongfei, he knew that there was naturally nothing difficult about these problems. …,

But there is no doubt that Lin Hongfei took out this thing at this time, which is too terrifying in the eyes of Felix now, making Felix feel ashamed of standing on the street naked and letting others point fingers at him.

"I will convey your sincerity to the top management of our company as soon as possible." This time, Felix did not hesitate any longer, but said to Lin Hongfei in a sweat.

"I hope so," Lin Hongfei smiled and nodded, "Otherwise, I'm curious if Motortrend Magazine will buy a few Mercedes Benzes on a whim to verify it after receiving this thing." ”

After speaking, Lin Hongfei stood up and made a gesture to leave.

Motortrend, also known as "Car Family", is one of the most famous automotive magazines in the United States, and also the most influential in the world, this magazine is known for its spicy and accurate reviews of every car they test, and it is also merciless to give comprehensive points out of the problems found, to put it mildly, it is a magazine that the world's automakers love and hate, taking into account the relationship between American automakers and their European counterparts...... At this moment, Felix's face was as gray as a layer of lime water: the threat in Lin Hongfei's words was too obvious.

"Lin, please believe that our company is very sincere in solving the problem! Very, very sufficient! Felix stopped in front of Lin Hongfei almost at the speed of a cheetah sprint, and the face that had always been arrogant in front of Lin Hongfei was full of pleading at the moment.

"You only have a week." After Lin Hongfei finished speaking, he unceremoniously pushed away Felix, who was blocking in front of him, and strode away.
