Chapter 1363 I Have Fans Too (Part 2)

It feels good to have a group of car fans, which is completely different from being the owner of the Tottenham team and having many Bai Lily fans.

The team owner is just because he is willing to invest in the team, delegate power, and bring good results to the team, so the fans will support it. The reason why the previous team owner was dissatisfied by the fans was because he was stingy. After all, it was still a matter of money.

Liking one's own work is completely different from liking the satisfaction that one's own money brings to Guo Tailai. This feeling of satisfaction and recognition allows Guo Tailai to maintain his interest in developing new works.

Anderson returned to the United States for a while, three weeks to be precise, and then brought a technical director of AMG, a vice president of GM and their assistants to Gusu and met Guo Tailai.

Of course, this is a good greeting in advance. Guo Tailai returned to Gusu after finishing his assignment in the capital. Made two more modified Hummers, if the Americans are really interested, this will be the prototype.

In fact, GM has no doubts about Guo Tailai's level in modifying cars. The filming of "Shen Xing" was closed, and the prototype cars were not accessible to ordinary people, but how could the three major automobile groups not be able to access them? The engineers of GM Ford Chrysler have already driven it many times, and even the maintenance and painting of the car are done by several companies separately. The research is not only on the warrior military vehicle, but the Knight XV and the battle shield are also indispensable.

Anderson went back to find GM executives, and said that Mr. T's own security team used all modified Hummers. Would GM, which owns the Hummer brand, be interested? It simply took two days to get a lot of photos of Guo Tailai's motorcade swaggering through the streets in Huaxia's domestic streets.

Looking at those clear photos and videos, GM's top executives were all excited. Mr. T's own security team does not use the Warrior military vehicle or the LAPV corresponding to that luxury SUV, but uses a modified Hummer. What does this mean?

Mr. T is now a high-end brand in the automotive industry! If even Mr. T's own security team uses the Hummer he modified himself, doesn't that mean that the Hummer brand still has hope of being revived? As long as the notoriety of Humvee thin-skinned cans can be solved, with years of close cooperation between GM and the Pentagon, the modified Humvee may not be able to replace the existing Humvees in the military again. You know, it adds up to a big business of hundreds of thousands of military vehicles!

It is not surprising that the Huaxia government does not object to this transaction. In fact, some of Huaxia's military technologies are currently being used on the battlefield in Afghanistan, and the effect is very good. That anti-sniper detection system has saved many American soldiers on the battlefield in Afghanistan. Even this kind of high-tech military equipment can be exported, let alone a modified military vehicle. Isn't the warrior military vehicle also appearing in Hollywood movies and promoting it all over the world?

These are not important, what is important is how GM can use this opportunity to once again occupy the military vehicle market that adds up to tens of billions. GM and AM General (AMG’s full name is AM General) had two full days of meetings before contacting Anderson, hoping to meet and communicate with Guo Tailai.

"Actually, I didn't modify much." Facing the American visitor, Guo Tailai received the visitor in a normal way: "I changed the power, replaced it with an engine designed by myself, and strengthened the protection. As for the appearance, it is still The appearance of the Hummer, I have no doubt that as long as you are willing, you can also come up with exactly the same or even better design. It’s not that I don’t want to cooperate, and it’s not that I push the money out, but I find it strange that you can change the appearance a little Why do you have to spend a lot of money to cooperate with something that can be done without spending money?"

"Because of you." The vice president of GM smiled politely: "Since the big red flag you designed was born, and the car was extremely safe under the M2 machine gun fire in the advertising video, and then there were 44 tons of concrete. The video that the mixer truck is safe and sound, so our fighters always approve of the car you designed yourself. Even if we can use the same materials and technology to slightly change the appearance, there is no difference in performance and protection, even We can do better, but they will still feel that Mr. T's design is the best, not our designer."

"If you want the safety of the big red flag, how much does it cost? I think you also know that there is no absolutely safe car." Guo Tailai shook his head: "Believe me, the car I modified will not be affected by a few RPG rounds." Turn into a pile of burning rubbish. Anti-tank missiles can be blown to pieces in one shot. IDEs modified with large-caliber shells can also easily blow up into the sky. At most, ordinary bullets will be fine.”

"That's enough." The vice president is a sensible person, or GM has made a decision in the meeting these days: "As long as the AK47 used by the guerrillas in Afghanistan is fine, it will be fine if you hit an RPG or detonate an AK47." The mines still have a chance to escape, that’s enough. As long as the soldiers believe that this is a car designed by you, Mr. T, and specially designed for security, they will feel that sitting in it is almost as safe as sitting in a tank.”

Guo Tailai was very speechless: "You mean, among the American soldiers, there are still many fans of my car?"

"It's not just the American soldiers who have your fans!" The vice president and technical director glanced at each other, and said with a wry smile, "You have fans all over the world! Last year, I gritted my teeth and ordered a Lamborghini." Chiron."

"I ordered a battle shield a few days ago." The technical director raised his hand and smiled.

There are actually two car fans in front of me, especially because they are still insiders, one is the technical director of AMG, and the other is the vice president of GM. Guo Tailai can't laugh or cry.

"Although the engine I modified for the Hummer has higher power and better performance, its fuel consumption is lower than similar engines." Guo Tailai could only say with a wry smile: "But you also know that even if a large-displacement engine is fuel-efficient, the fuel consumption is still not low, and it is not used enough. economy."

"Don't worry, this is a military vehicle. Who cares about the high fuel consumption?" The vice president waved his hand, "And you also said that the fuel consumption is already lower than that of similar engines. The military vehicles with high fuel consumption and best-selling are those oil tycoons. Our favorite. If the Pentagon bought it, they would welcome it with both hands."

"Does this mean that I can now make money from my reputation?" Guo Tailai asked the two of them.

"Of course!" The technical director replied very positively.

"Without a doubt!" The vice president's expression was as it should be.

"Okay!" Guo Tailai nodded: "I agree. Talk to my assistant, Ms. Lin, about the specific terms! I have already built two prototypes, and you can take them away with the modification plan after the negotiation. "
