King of Industry

After walking through the first complete vehicle workshop, everyone, led by Jeffries, came to the engine assembly workshop.

Since Volkswagen Latin America has not built an engine production workshop, the engines on their vehicles are directly imported from the Wolfsburg factory and then assembled.

Now the golf produced by Latin American company is the second generation product, and its engine displacement ranges from 1.3L to 1.8L.

In addition, what is special about this car is that it is already equipped with a more advanced turbocharged diesel engine.

The so-called turbocharged diesel engine actually refers to an engine equipped with a turbocharger.

This device, to put it bluntly, is an air compressor that increases the amount of air intake by compressing air.

The turbocharger uses the inertial momentum of the exhaust gas discharged from the engine to drive the turbine in the turbine chamber, and the turbine drives the coaxial impeller to compress the air sent by the air filter pipe to pressurize it into the cylinder. Such recycling increases the output power of the engine in disguise.

In the 1.5T logo usually seen at the rear of the car, this T represents the meaning of a turbocharger.

While doing translation work for the big bosses on both sides, Zhao Guoyang explained the concept of turbocharging to Mayor Huang and Chairman Mao in simple terms.

Li Kejian on the side saw that he was sharing two jobs by himself, and he was doing it in an orderly manner without any hesitation, so he made a joke and said: Guoyang, Songqi Group has really made a lot of money by finding you as a 'special researcher'. , Go back, you have to ask Chairman Mao to pay you some hard work!

Yes, yes, this is what it should be. Guoyang not only helped us a lot with the technology of Songqi Group, but also was able to do translation work. Such talents are really hard to find with lanterns! Mao Zhichun naturally said again and again. Nod in agreement.

In the engine assembly workshop, a group of people, led by Jeffries, gradually walked to the engine test room at the end of the workshop.

Well, everyone, this is our engine laboratory. Jeffries reached out and gestured to the technical master Ayton.

Director Ayton, this is your professional site, and I'll let you explain it next.

Ayton didn't shirk it, nodded immediately, walked at the front of the line, and prepared to take everyone into the laboratory for a look.

Just as he was about to move, a young white man wearing glasses ran out of the laboratory in a panic.

Perhaps because of his haste, the young man didn't pay attention to the situation in front of him, and rushed over, almost missing Ayton.

After reaching out to block this guy, Ayton said with dissatisfaction: Hey, Smolin, what's the matter, flustered.

After seeing the person in front of him clearly, the young man named Smalling finally realized it.

Pointing to the back, he stammered and explained: Mr. Ayton, the two new 1.5T engines broke down again after 5,000 hours of endurance testing...

What? What's going on? Hearing this, Ayton's heart skipped a beat.

It's still an old problem. The heat dissipation of the engine is not good, and the aging phenomenon is serious. It can't be used normally after only 5,000 hours... Smolin said with a bitter face, rather discouraged.

The conversation between the two was naturally heard by Zhao Guoyang, and he couldn't help but feel moved, knowing that the opportunity to hit these proud Germans had come.

Zhao Guoyang shared what he had heard with the big bosses behind him, and at the same time expressed his opinion: Mayor Huang and Chairman Mao, I think I have a solution to the problem that turbocharged engines are prone to aging. It's just that I don't know what you two mean?

Ah, can you solve Guoyang's problem? Chairman Mao was surprised when he heard this.

Turbocharged engine, although Songqi Group has not configured it yet, Mao Zhichun still knows a thing or two about it.

He also heard from the German engineers in the Songqi Group that the heat dissipation problem of this kind of engine seems to be a global problem at present.

But now, Zhao Guoyang actually said that he had a solution to this problem, and Mao Zhichun was immediately stunned.

Compared with Mao Zhichun, Huang Zhigang didn't know much about such highly professional matters, so he could only ask Li Kejian for help, Mr. Li, I still need your advice on this issue. Guoyang said he What do you think can solve the heat dissipation problem of turbocharged engines?

Li Kejian pondered for a while, looked up at Zhao Guoyang and said, Guoyang, this is not a trivial matter.

Turbocharged engines are prone to problems. I also know that there are foreign colleagues who have communicated with me about this problem. Are you sure that you can really solve this problem?

Yes, I'm sure! Zhao Guoyang said confidently.

Indeed, for him, with his rich experience in his previous life, it is really not difficult to solve the problem of heat dissipation of turbocharged engines.

The reason why he reported this matter to several big bosses in advance was that he didn't want to make a decision on his own that would go against the interests of the delegation and Songqi Group.

Sure enough, after hearing Zhao Guoyang's words, Huang Zhigang, Yao Gang and others all showed appreciative smiles on their faces.

Huang Zhigang patted Zhao Guoyang's shoulder with great satisfaction and said: Since Guoyang is so confident, you should have a decision in your heart about how to do it. Don't worry about it and do it boldly. We are all your strong backing.

Thank you, Mayor Huang, I understand! Hearing Mayor Huang's assurance, Zhao Guoyang was overjoyed, knowing that he could suppress these Germans with high self-esteem.

While Zhao Guoyang was reporting with several bigwigs, the conversation between Ayton and Smalling was still going on.

Originally, Ayton was going to take the Huaxia delegation to visit the laboratory and experience it, but now that something went wrong suddenly, he hesitated.

As for the hidden dangers of turbocharged engines, this can be regarded as a worldwide problem, and naturally it will not be so easy to solve. Ayton does not mean to blame the people below.

Just when Ayton was about to let the delegation shift their target, Zhao Guoyang had already spoken before him.

Mr. Ayton, I'm sorry, I heard the conversation between you and Mr. Smalling just now. I have always been interested in the problems of turbocharged engines, and I have tried to think of several solutions to the problems. I wonder if you can take us in to have a look and actually understand the situation?

After Zhao Guoyang said these words, several bigwigs on Volkswagen's side were stunned.

Although the departments in charge are different, no matter whether it is Jeffries or others, they are very clear about this major technical problem in their own factory.

Now this young guy is actually talking big, saying that he has thought of several solutions to this problem, which is nothing more than nonsense to the ears of several big shots.

Among the Germans at the scene, Ayton should be the one who disbelieves Zhao Guoyang the least.

He is a master of technology and has deep insights into technical issues. Of course, he does not believe that a young boy can solve problems that many experts cannot solve.

But Zhao Guoyang's words have been left here, and Ayton wanted to refuse, but he didn't know how to say it. After all, the other party was a member of the Huaxia delegation.

In desperation, he could only look at Jeffries with a questioning look, hoping that the chairman could give a clear answer.

Well, since Mr. Zhao is so confident, it's okay for us to go in and have a look together. Jeffries said pretending to be generous.

Yeah, the problem with the turbocharged engine is not unique to our Volkswagen family. It's not a big deal to take our distinguished guests to see it. Several other Germans also whispered to each other.

These people said so, but they sneered in their hearts: When will the Huaxia Kingdom, which has always been modest and prudent, produce such an arrogant little guy who can solve this worldwide problem? Does he really think he is a special researcher?

Zhao Guoyang didn't care about the questioning eyes of these Germans.

After Jeffries agreed, he turned around and greeted Mayor Huang and Li Kejian and invited them in.

Entering the engine durability test room, more than 20 large engine benches immediately caught everyone's eyes.

Ayton, who was next to him, had recovered his composure at this time, and explained to everyone: Everyone, these are all the engine test benches of our Volkswagen Latin America company. Although they are not as large as Wolfsburg, they are in Volkswagen's overseas It is also unique in the car factory.”

After hearing Ayton's words, Zhao Guoyang nodded secretly.

Indeed, Ayton's remarks are not bragging. Even in his previous life, Zhao Guoyang had been to countless large automobile factories, but only one or two had such a large engine durability laboratory.

In fact, what everyone does not know is that Volkswagen Latin America has already been preparing to build an engine production plant.

When they made great efforts to build this engine durability laboratory, they had a long-term plan.

After entering the laboratory, Zhao Guoyang cast his eyes on the two engine stands in the middle.

The engines on these two pedestals have stopped roaring, and the exposed engine tubes are burning red and are slowly emitting heat.

Seeing this scene, Ayton's eyes froze.

Although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, he still felt a little depressed when he saw the two engines that had failed the test.

Noticing Ayton's absent-minded state, Zhao Guoyang said lightly: The pressure and temperature of a turbocharged engine are much higher than that of a naturally aspirated engine with the same displacement, so the engine life is shorter. It's also understandable. After all, it saves fuel. You don't have to worry too much about this, Mr. Ayton.

Ayton was surprised when he heard this, he didn't expect that this young man really knew something about turbocharging technology.

Seeing his gaze, Zhao Guoyang said again: Actually, as long as the heat dissipation problem is solved, the turbocharging technology of the entire automobile industry will achieve a faster development. On this point, I think Mr. Ayton and I should be Same opinion, right?
