Super Craftsman

Chapter 516 I Wish I Had Known Earlier (Part 1)

Even more excited than Mr Pagani is the management of the Nürburgring. Today, a super sports car set a new record here, and in the future, if a super sports car manufacturer wants to challenge the status of this Zonda, he will also come to New North to set a lap time to prove his excellence. In other words, as long as the management of the track does not die, there will be a steady stream of customers coming to the track in the future, and long-term business. Is there anything more satisfying than this?

The loud horn directly announced the time of 6 minutes and 46 seconds across the entire New Nordschleife. All those who hadn't been able to see the results on the display before were all stunned. What kind of car can run to six minutes and forty-six seconds?

Pagani ZondaT, once this car was born, it gained an earth-shattering reputation. Mr. Pagani has already begun to ponder what kind of publicity methods should be used to promote this car.

Of course, this does not prevent Mr. Pagani and all Pagani employees, as well as top drivers like Hunkkinen Shu Niuhe from looking at Guo Tailai with pilgrimage eyes. They all know who the person who created all this is.

If Guo Tailai can design a super sports car from scratch, what kind of performance will the car be expected to be able to explode with such fighting power after a modification of the body shape of the Zonda?

When Guo Tailai and Mr. Pagani entertained Hun Jining and Shu Niuhe together, and listened to the driving experience of the two best drivers at that time, what happened here has been spread all over the world with various radio signals.

Lamborghini and Ferrari knew the ZondaT would be good, but they didn't expect it to be so good, and directly beat all their models.

The powerful score of six minutes and forty-six seconds is like a natural moat standing over there. Pagani's old friend's second model, no, the facelift of the first model, actually dwarfs all the supercars made by their two supercar manufacturers before, and can only watch helplessly. Records rose to an unimaginable number.

They knew exactly what role Guo Tailai played in it. If they can cooperate with Guo Tailai on one or two models of supercars, can Ferrari and Lamborghini regain the leading positions in supercars? Thinking of this, the hearts of the bosses of the two supercar manufacturers all felt the same.

Especially for Ferrari, Guo Tailai had expressed his goodwill before, willing to collect all the supercars produced by Ferrari in the future, and they also expressed their willingness to cooperate with Guo Tailai on a model. If Guo Tailai agrees, this new model is just like Ferrari Enzo or LaFerrari, so why not name it FerrariTxxx?

Lamborghini didn't say anything before, but the friendship between Lamborghini and Mr. Pagani is absolutely extraordinary. To put it bluntly, Mr. Pagani was trained by Lamborghini. In addition, he did not hesitate to lend his love for the track before. It is said that Guo Tailai will definitely be willing to cooperate, but there is still a chance to meet and discuss this matter in person.

Even Lamborghini and Ferrari are like this, and other large and small manufacturers can see their mood after receiving the news. In addition to being amazed, I am indescribably fortunate. Fortunately! Fortunately, Pagani is only a manufacturer of hand-crafted supercars. The annual output is limited, and it will not exceed dozens or hundreds of cars. Otherwise, is there any way for other manufacturers to survive?

It’s not just Lamborghini and Ferrari that are tempted. McLaren should be the first to cooperate with Guo Tailai. Mercedes-Benz is also not far behind. Although BMW has not been contacted much at the beginning, isn’t Rolls-Royce owned by BMW? Isn't that also cooperating with Guo Tailai? It is said that some time ago, a friend of Mercedes-Benz revealed that Guo Tailai also intends to cooperate with BMW in motorcycles. Isn’t this a ready-made opportunity?

As soon as Mazda received the news, the board of directors immediately called Hisashi Matsuyama. Mazda had cooperated with Guo Tailai, and Hisashi Matsuyama was the person in charge at that time. The first question I called was to ask if there was any possibility of continuing to cooperate with Guo Tailai.

...

In short, this ZondaT has attracted much attention since its birth. And Guo Tailai, who created this car, also directly established his reputation as a supercar design master and production master in the automotive industry. In the entire industry, no one can refute it, and no one dares to refute it. If you want to refute it, you can build a super sports car that surpasses the ZondaT first.

The news inevitably spread to China. Of course, all the news was not released by Pagani and Guo Tailai, but by the drivers present at the time and the engineers of those big manufacturers who happened to have models to test. The source of the news is very accurate, and the official website of the New North Circuit has already used the most eye-catching headlines and large fonts to promote it on the official website of the Internet. There will never be fakes.

There is a time difference between Germany and China. It is not yet noon in New North, and when the news is really known in China, it is already close to get off work time in China. The news fed back to various automobile factories through various channels directly shocked the leaders of domestic automobile factories.

Some time ago, there was a young official in Beijing who hoped that some design qualifications in the automotive system could be released to the private sector, but they were all rejected by the joint efforts of major manufacturers. If any individual can design and manufacture cars, what are these professional car factories?

Those who know the inside story have learned that it is actually the high-level executives who want to relax. After all, all walks of life are reforming and opening up, and the high-level officials hope that loosening up can also add some vitality to the domestic auto industry. Some of them want to take the opportunity to give the military a face, and help Guo Tailai, who has sold more than 100 million US dollars of cars, get a qualification to design and manufacture cars in China.

Several manufacturers are actually very tempted, but there are also many objections. In short, the final result is still rejected. It's just a chance to refit someone else's model, and the original factory just happened to be the lucky one who sold it for a good price. Is designing and manufacturing a car a child's play? That is a complete industrial chain, what can one person do?

But now it suddenly happened that the Zonda R designed and manufactured by Guo Tailai broke several world records among super sports cars. At that time, a group of people who raised objections for that reason felt burning pain on their faces. If he is lucky enough to build the fastest supercar in the world, he is considered lucky, and everyone will only regard his luck as ability.

While some people felt uncomfortable being slapped in the face by the facts, more people regretted crazily in their hearts. If I knew that Guo Tailai had such design and manufacturing capabilities, he should have accepted the cooperation when he sold that rotor! If that's the case, wouldn't the current honor of being the world's number one supercar not be his shining political achievements? At that time, why did you feel jealous that he took more than 100 million U.S. dollars, so you didn't cooperate with him?
