Developing engines for others is something that Warrior Engine Factory has done a lot, but it only requires the manufacturer to provide R\u0026D funds and buy out the patents.

But Bentley's representatives are a little arrogant. They believe that, as the world's top car, being able to use the Warrior engine gives them face, and naturally they don't need to buy out any patents.

Mei Ting's sales company originally negotiated with them, but the negotiations broke down after several times because the two sides' positions were destined to make it impossible to negotiate.

Speaking of the brand "Bentley", most people actually know that it is one of the top luxury car brands in the world, along with Rolls-Royce.

Since its birth, this car has been just like the traditional British, arrogant and conceited, and was not produced for ordinary people at all.

This has to introduce the development history of Bentley.

In the early 20th century, when automobiles were in their infancy, Walter Owen Bentley drew inspiration from the racing circuit and came up with the idea of ​​creating a performance-focused, lighter-weight car.

In an era when people's understanding of cars was limited to transportation, his idea seemed avant-garde and alternative, and it was also destined that Bentley was not a product for the "public" from the beginning.

In 1912, the Bentley family raised funds to introduce the French DFP sports car and established Bentley \u0026 Bentley at 3 Hanover Square in London.

W.O. made improvements to the imported DFP and changed the engine to use aluminum pistons, which improved the performance of the car.

During World War I, W.O. was employed by the Royal Naval Aviation Technical Committee to work on the improvement of the French Clergate engine.

The aluminum alloy pistons he designed were soon widely used in aircraft engines. Not only were his improved aero engines known as BR1 and BR2, he also accumulated a lot of manufacturing experience and mastered sufficient engineering technology.

So after the war, he was very ambitious and quickly began to design and build his own car.

In early 1919, the design of the new car was completed. At this time, the company also raised funds and established what would become the famous Bentley Motors Ltd. (Bentley Motors Ltd.).

At that time, the company's nominal share capital was 200,000 pounds, but the actual cash in the bank was only more than 18,000 pounds. Therefore, the company was underfunded from the beginning, which laid the foundation for Bentley's financial difficulties in the future.

From its founding in 1912 to its invincibility on the Le Mans track in 1924, to its merger with Rolls-Royce in the early 1930s as it was on the verge of bankruptcy, until its acquisition by Volkswagen in 1998, Bentley has gone through many hardships, but every Bentley car But they all have legendary experiences.

In 1921, Bentley produced a 3-liter model with 85 horsepower and a speed of 128 kilometers. It was the fastest mass-produced car at the time.

This model was considered a highly innovative product in the automotive industry at the time and pioneered the concept of performance cars.

This 3-liter car broke almost all endurance and speed records at the time. Later, its derivatives also helped Bentley historic win the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1924, 1927, 1928, 1929 and 1930. Enduro champion.

Bentley became famous all over the world. In 1998, Bentley was acquired by Volkswagen, and some people were worried that Bentley's image would be changed.

But the elegant RedLabel introduced later completely eliminated people's concerns. The Germans have not changed Bentley, and Bentley's British royal bloodline remains pure.

Seeing this, everyone will understand that, yes, Bentley, as the top brand in the UK, actually does not belong to the UK for a long time, but was acquired by Volkswagen.

It's just that for the sake of sales and brand awareness, the Germans did not change his style, but developed it as a separate brand.

This is how Bentley maintains and creates its current brand status.

Otherwise, it would have long since become a branch of Volkswagen and produced Volkswagen cars. How could there be a car like Bentley?

Speaking of the UK, it is also a tragedy. Rolls-Royce and Bentley are both products that the British are proud of, but as a result, they do not belong to the UK now. This is also a tragedy!

However, this kind of thing did not affect the arrogance of the Bentley representative, so the negotiations reached a deadlock.

The representative who came to negotiate this time was Bentley's CEO Owen, who is a direct descendant of Bentley's founder, Mr. Bentley.

As a descendant of a family with such a famous name in the world's automotive history, he naturally has his own pride.

Irving is 32 years old this year and has his own unique insights and keen perspective on cars, so he can become Bentley's CEO at this age.

Speaking of which, as an established empire, they have an unparalleled sense of pride in their hearts.

Even the United States, according to their evaluation, is just a country without a history. It just happened to become a developed country at the right time and has no foundation at all.

Owen is a typical British person, so this kind of thinking in him is very serious. Although he looks polite, his arrogance is hard to like.

Mei Ting was a person who was soft on the outside but strong on the inside. After a few contacts, she stopped seeing him. In fact, she just didn't want to scold him.

This made Owen very angry, but also helpless. He felt that he could come to this small town to negotiate to give face to the Warrior Group, but a sales company boss actually dared to be so unreasonable to him!

But what can he, an Englishman, do in Junchen City?

He tried to contact the officials of Junken City, hoping to use his identity to attract their attention, but they ignored him.

Although his identity is well-known in the UK, it seems that he has no weight in the customer base of Junken City.

Even Mei Ting doesn't care, let alone the city. If you are awesome, don't come to buy engines? No one invited you.

The reason why Owen came to Sofia Restaurant was that he often heard people talking about it in the hotel, so he came to try it.

There were five of them in their group. They originally wanted to book a private room, but there was no room, so they could only choose to sit in the lobby.

As soon as he came in, he frowned because the smell made him uncomfortable.

You know, most white people's rice is actually very light, and even dishes like fried steak are not strong when they are served.

But what's the matter with the strong smell of roasted lamb in a Western restaurant?

And he found that it seemed that there was roasted lamb on every table, whether Chinese or foreigners, every table ordered it.

After sitting down, he asked the waiter unhappily:

"Isn't this a Western restaurant? What have you done?"

The waiter's English was limited, so he didn't understand what he was saying? He waved and called Sophia over.

Now Sally has gone to the new store, Sophia is responsible for the operation of the old store, Tom runs between the two, and Liu Qinghua has become a purchaser, responsible for the purchase of all raw materials.

Sophia smiled brightly: "Sir, what can I do for you?"

Although she was born and raised in Africa, it did not prevent Sophia from speaking fluent English.
