Super Craftsman Chapter 453

Chapter 453 - Installing PK (2)

The engineer in charge of recording was very conscientious, the procedures on both sides were very detailed. Not only did they record the operation of each process, but they also recorded the installation angles of certain parts and the tightening torque of certain nuts.

On the Mercedes-Benz team's side, the angles and torque values were all measured using a special instrument, so the recording was very normal. However, there were some engineers who put a question mark on Guo Tai.

For example, Guo said that the installation angle was based on the design angle. However, the recorded engineer did not see him use any tool to measure the angle. He only saw him reach out his hand to pick up the piston and directly insert it in. The torque value had a torque wrench, but the engineer didn't see Guo Tailai looking at the reading and just casually reported the number.

Thus, Guo Tailai's installation details were marked with a question mark by the two engineers responsible for recording it down. The data was still recorded according to what Guo Tailai had said, but there was a question.

Guo Tailai didn't explain, nor did he intend to. In any case, some people in the Mercedes-Benz knew that they could reach the exact values without using those tools, so he didn't have the obligation to explain it to anyone who had doubts.

The comprehensive test of the engine on the test bench is to ensure that the engine is in good working condition and to obtain the most intuitive first-hand data. This was an internal quality check for Mercedes-Benz. It would be submitted to McLaren only after the quality check had passed. Then it would be up to McLaren's Technical Director to decide whether or not to use the engine in F1.

The two engines started up one by one. Hearing the sound of the two engines, the experienced engineers knew that they had lost.

The engine that Guo Tai had assembled had a smaller vibration and a more even sound, and was even better than the one they had assembled.

In the process of large-scale industrial production, there would always be a few workpieces that had very good processing accuracy, and there would always be a few that had very good assembling accuracy. Those old mechanics had heard this sound before in their careers, but only one in tens of thousands would have this kind of performance. However, Guo Tailai only had one, yet he had already made such a sound. They were all ashamed of themselves.

If they were different parts, he could find the reason, but they were both made by Guo Tai, and they had been tested at both the Mercedes-Benz headquarters and the industrial laboratory. With the same processing accuracy, it would not be appropriate to find the reason from the parts.

This group of veteran craftsmen admitted defeat without waiting for the testing data to come out.

It was fortunate that this was the case. When the perovskite engine's overall stats were almost 5% higher than that of the other titanium alloy engine, no matter how much he tried, he could not suppress the smile on his Technical Director's face. This test data was about 7% higher than the one they were currently using on the car, and it was also a few kilograms lighter. Even if there was a part of the titanium alloy engine, its performance was two percent higher and its weight lighter. This was because some parts were made of aluminum alloy and its density was lower than that of titanium alloy.

At this time, the Technical Director was regretting agreeing to this competition. Fortunately, he still had time. He could reassemble some of the titanium alloy engine. As long as they could be comparable to the other engine, these two engines would be more than enough for this year's competition. The strength of titanium alloy engine was much stronger than cast iron and aluminum alloy.

However, this was only the Technical Director's prediction. Whether it could be realized, it would have to be installed on the car, and after every station would be checked for detailed data before it could be supported. However, the seven percent increase in rewards from a comprehensive increase was already enough to make Technical Director wake up from his slumber with a smile.

After the internal quality inspection, it must have been packaged into the convoy, which had nothing to do with Guo Tailai. As per their agreement, Guo Tai Lai reassembled the titanium alloy engine and reinstalled it, completing the cooperation. The Mercedes-Benz side made a very straightforward payment. Vice President stepped forward to discuss further cooperation with Guo Tailai.

Before the negotiations started, Guo Tailai had already contacted the Sister Zhang and Lin Jiayi, asking them to come together and be in charge of the negotiations with the Mercedes-Benz Corporation.

The content of the collaboration was limited to the perovskite engine. Guo Tailai was handmade. There was no point in discussing mass production with him, but the more handmade, the more popular it was for the nobles of the upper class. For example, Rolls-Royce was known as one of the best handmade products, and was favored by many nobles.

Guo Tai Lai's perovskite engine could definitely work with the Mercedes-Benz to release the highest grade S-Series or G-Series off-road hand-made limited edition version. He believed that once this trick was released, he would definitely be able to get a top tier customer.

What Guo Tai Lai wanted to do was to create a perovskite engine. Guo Tailai didn't object. As long as there wasn't a lot, Guo Tailai could agree to it. They just had to agree on the price. Lin Jiayi and Sister Zhang were in charge of settling the price negotiations and legal issues.

Lin Jiayi had no choice but to hand over the matters regarding the establishment of the company to Mi Feifei so that she could take over from him. She quickly flew to Germany with Sister Zhang and started negotiations with the Mercedes-Benz side.

After the engine was installed, Guo Tailai even asked the Mercedes-Benz and McLaren if they had a relationship with the French Louvre, allowing them to watch the real Mona Lisa's smile closely. Unfortunately, both sides shook their heads regretfully. There were quite a few friends in France, but none of them could fulfill Guo Tailai's request.

Such cooperation was not something that could be negotiated overnight. Last time, Guo Tailai agreed readily, but he also knew that he must have suffered a lot. Guo Tai Lai wasn't suitable to do this kind of thing, he had to fight for the conditions and negotiate bit by bit. Guo Tai Lai wasn't suitable for this kind of thing, he had to fight for the conditions and negotiate bit by bit.

Initially, Zhang Xuan thought that such negotiations would at most last take a few days. Unexpectedly, a week later, he was still unable to come to a conclusion. The focus of the dispute is on Mercedes-Benz's hope that Mr Guo will only be able to serve the family, which he apparently does not want to do.

"Director Guo, I feel that your specialties are suitable for you to work with some handmade car manufacturers." Lin Jiayi was also furious about the restriction on Mercedes-Benz. After a week of not talking about it, he suggested to Guo Tailai, "Perhaps we can contact the families of Rolls, Koenicek, and Pani. There's no need to tie you up to death.
