Chapter 1197 We welcome sincere partners
Just coming out of the meeting room, Zhang Qihang felt a little tired and rubbed his temples. He was about to go back to the office for a nap when the phone rang. He glanced at the number displayed on the phone. Zhang Qihang connected the phone casually and said with a smile: "Lao Yang?"

"Mr. Zhang, it's me." On the other end of the phone, Yang Zhijun reported to Zhang Qihang respectfully: "There is a situation that needs to be reported to you."

"Well, what's the situation, tell me."

Zhang Qihang responded, Huateng Group is the first large-scale enterprise group in China to start using the OA automated office system, it is not a particularly important situation, Zhang Qihang directly handles general business with a laptop at any time, and Yang Zhijun can make a special call What's coming must be more important.

Yang Zhijun said: "This is the situation. I just received a call from Mr. Massimiano, saying that he wants to visit you, and hopes to communicate with you on the cooperation of dual-clutch gearboxes. After all, there was BorgWarner before. This matter, so do you think it would be better for me to answer Massimiano?"

Before Yang Zhijun could finish his sentence, Zhang Qihang already understood what was going on: Massimiano was just here to stand in the front line, and his purpose was to test his own or Huateng Group's attitude towards the cooperation between the two parties. If you are interested, the executives from Getrag's headquarters will come forward later.

Of course, the appearance of Massimiano itself has already explained Getrag's attitude towards the Chinese market: Seeing that BorgWarner is going to do a big business in China, Getrag can't hold it anymore.

He smiled and said: "I thought how long they could bear it, but I didn't expect it to be unbearable?"

"Seeing that BorgWarner is going to do something big in our country, Getrag must not be able to bear it," Yang Zhijun on the other end of the phone replied with a smile: "Although Getrag is in the traditional passenger vehicles such as AT and CVT, In terms of cars, it cannot compete with traditional automatic transmission giants such as ZF and Aisin, and its accumulation in dual-clutch transmissions is not as good as that of BorgWarner and LUK. Now, seeing that BorgWarner is preparing to make a fortune in China, it is normal for them to have some thoughts in their hearts."

As for why Getrag is eyeing Huateng Motors, isn’t this nonsense? If Getrag is looking at the entire Chinese market, then besides the Huateng Group, who else can they cooperate with?

"Well, that's true." Knowing that Yang Zhijun on the other end of the phone was waiting for his answer, Zhang Qihang stopped playing around with him, and said after a moment of pondering, "You tell Massimiano, just say Hua Teng The group welcomes cooperation with any sincere enterprise."

understood!

Hearing the three words "sincerity", Yang Zhijun understood what Zhang Qihang meant. He asked himself to tell Massimiano that cooperation was possible, but if Getrag held the same attitude as BorgWarner, not only If you want to make money from Huateng Group, and want to cut off an arm of Huateng Group, you should get out as soon as possible and go back to where you came from.

Immediately nodded in response.

Zhang Qihang thought for a while and added: "In addition, you told Massimiano that we are optimistic about the development of dual-clutch gearboxes, but compared to dual-clutch gearboxes, we see the future of hybrid systems more , in our development plan, the dual-clutch gearbox is only an intermediate transition from traditional fuel power to hybrid power and then to pure electric drive. If necessary, visit our new generation hybrid system as part of the tour Come in."

Hearing this, Yang Zhijun didn't understand what his boss meant?
This is obviously to use this opportunity to make Getrag realize the reality and let Getrag understand that in the Huateng Group, the dual-clutch gearbox is not as important as they think Getrag, don't try to take advantage of this opportunity The lion opened his mouth wide.

He immediately responded with a smile: "I understand, don't worry."

Zhang Qihang nodded with a smile.

....................................

After hanging up the phone here, Yang Zhijun was not in a hurry, and continued to deal with the work at hand. He didn't pick up the phone until he was about to get off work in the afternoon, and then called Massimiano Najork: "Nayor Mr. Ke, hello."

When receiving the call from Yang Zhijun, Massimiano Najorque was a little excited, but the excitement was nothing more than excitement. He suppressed his excitement and said in as calm a tone as possible: "Mr. Yang, hello."

"Well," Yang Zhijun responded, without being polite to Massimiano Najork, he said directly: "Mr. Getrag agrees with the joint development of the dual-clutch gearbox..."

"Agree?"

Hearing Yang Zhijun's words, Massimiano Najork couldn't help but be taken aback: Just agree?

This is far from what Massimiano Najork and Getrag analyzed before.

Before calling Yang Zhijun, the entire Getrag had a kind of self-confidence, always thinking that as long as Getrag extended an olive branch to Huateng Group, Huateng Group would definitely be happy and excited. " gesture, but now, what does Yang Zhijun, the CEO of Huateng Group, say?Just "agree"?
Agree? !
What is this statement? !

"Yes, I agree." Hearing the shocked tone of Massimiano Nayorque on the other end of the phone, Yang Zhijun smiled slightly. Ke asked: "Then Mr. York, do you know the hybrid car of our group?"

Although he didn't know why Yang Zhijun suddenly mentioned this, Massimiano Najork still had to respond: "Well... I know something..."

Yang Zhijun responded, and then said: "Boss Zhang and our group also believe that as countries have higher and higher requirements for environmental protection, energy conservation and emission reduction, the future passenger cars will belong to hybrid and pure electric vehicles. , although the efficiency of dual-clutch gearboxes is higher than that of traditional gearboxes, it is still traditional mechanical gearboxes in essence, without revolutionary changes. A technical solution for the transition, in the process..."

Massimiano Najork is not stupid either. Hearing this, how could he have heard that Yang Zhijun's words were actually belittling the dual-clutch gearbox?He quickly said: "No, no, Mr. Yang, I don't quite agree with your point of view. We admit that the future belongs to pure electric and hybrid power, but hybrid power is not only your extended range and Toyota's power split technology. Solution, we can also develop hybrid dual-clutch gearboxes on the basis of dual-clutch gearboxes, so we can not only cooperate in the field of dual-clutch gearboxes, but also in the field of hybrid transmission systems in the future. "

Although Getrag is not a giant in the field of transmission, it is still an international company in the field of transmission. Naturally, it is impossible not to track and research the world's top transmission technology, such as the power-split E-CVT hybrid Not only did they follow up the technology of the gearbox and Huateng Group's pure extended-range hybrid solution, but even like Huateng Group, they purchased a prototype car and went back for dismantling and technical analysis.

For the power-split E-CVT hybrid transmission of Stealing Oil, Getrag's evaluation is a "genius idea". They want to follow this technical route together, but helplessly, Stealing Oil has long been established. The strict patent matrix does not give Getrag a chance at all, so the situation of Getrag's power-split hybrid solution is that, from the perspective of technical realization, the power-split E-CVT hybrid transmission is very important for GETRAG. Getrag doesn't have any technical difficulty in realizing it, but from the perspective of patents, Getrag doesn't even think about it;
As for Huateng Group's pure extended-range hybrid system, Getrag has another attitude: heitui!Is such a simple thing worthy of being called a hybrid? !
It can be cursed, and Getrag has to admit that although Huateng Group's pure extended-range hybrid is technically an engine that generates electricity, and then uses the engine to drive the electric motor, it is simply extremely crude from a technical point of view. , but in terms of the actual use effect, it is really excellent, especially in the low- and medium-speed urban conditions where the electric motor is better at. I am a good boy, and it can even save more than 40% of fuel consumption!
Of course, the fuel consumption performance in high-speed working conditions is a bit stretched, but the question is, for most vehicles, are there more urban working conditions or high-speed working conditions?

Even if Getrag's engineers look down on Huateng Group's pure range-extending solution, they have to admit that this technical solution takes fuel consumption, cost and performance into consideration.

It was also after analyzing these two sets of hybrid technology solutions that Getrag’s engineers, who started out as traditional transmission solutions, suddenly slapped their heads: I add a motor in front or behind the traditional gearbox—the so-called P2 or P3 motor - can't it also achieve energy saving and emission reduction?At that time, I said that I am a hybrid technology route, who dares to say that I am wrong?
Based on this technical idea, Getrag began to think again, what if I put this motor on the dual-clutch gearbox, or the AMT gearbox of a commercial vehicle?Can it be done?

The answer is of course yes.

Although this technical idea is a bit simple and crude, but you just say that this is hybrid, right?The most important thing is, can you say that you can reduce fuel consumption?

Although these things are just theoretical things, and Getrag didn't do it himself, but this does not prevent Massimiano Najork from knowing something, so now that Yang Zhijun mentioned this, he hurriedly Moved out these things that I knew.

"Ha ha……"

Yang Zhijun laughed. If it was a purely technical issue, then he might not be able to do it, but if it was just a conceptual thing, it would be different. Facing Massimiano Najork’s defense, Yang Zhijun smiled Said: "Mr. York, to tell you the truth, the technical idea you mentioned, in fact, our group has also done technical analysis when developing a new generation of hybrid transmission system, but we denied it."

what?
Facing the bait deliberately thrown out by Yang Zhijun, Massimiano Najork was really hooked. His eyes widened immediately, and he said in surprise, "Have you developed a new generation of hybrid system?"

"Yes," Yang Zhijun said with a smile, not hiding it, "I believe Getrag knows the technical thinking of our group's first-generation hybrid system. To be honest, the advantages are obvious, and the cost is low. The effect of energy saving and emission reduction under most working conditions is indeed very good, but the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, the energy consumption under high-speed working conditions is not well understood."

"Ha ha……"

Massimiano Najork laughed twice, not knowing how to respond for a while.

But at the same time, Massimiano Najork's psychology was turned upside down: Huateng Group is actually developing a new generation of hybrid transmission system?Look at what this means, are they really planning to develop on the technical route of hybridization?If this is the case, then the technical route of dual clutches may not be so attractive to them...

Not to mention how entangled Massimiano Najork's psychology is, Yang Zhijun continued: "So our new generation of hybrid transmission system is specially optimized for high-speed working conditions."

Massimiano Najolke was overwhelmed when he heard this: Is Huateng Group really developing a new generation of hybrid system?After hesitating for a while, he tentatively asked Yang Zhijun: "Yang, first of all, I declare that I don't mean to explore your technical secrets, I'm just curious."

Yang Zhijun believed the words of Massimiano Najork, but this did not prevent him from nodding slightly with a smile at the corner of his mouth: "Well, tell me."

"Is that so, have you really developed a new generation of hybrid transmission?"

"Yes," Yang Zhijun said without hiding it from him, "I can't tell you the specific technical ideas, but what I can tell you is that our new generation of hybrid transmission can achieve It is more fuel-efficient than the E-cvt transmission of the oil otter."

what? !

Hearing Yang Zhijun's words, Massimiano Najork was completely frightened.

Massimiano Najorque actually understands Yang Zhijun’s refusal to tell him about his technical ideas. There is no way to register a patent for an idea. If he can use it himself, others can use it. Tetraco's technical strength may be able to surpass their Huateng Group, so it is completely normal for Yang Zhijun not to say.

But Yang Zhijun actually said that under the same working conditions, Huateng Group's new generation of hybrid transmission is even more fuel-efficient than the E-CVT transmission of the oil-stealing, which is a bit appalling-in Getrag, stealing oil Otter's power-split E-cvt hybrid solution is known as a "genius idea". How can Huateng Group achieve lower fuel consumption than the Otter E-cvt?
Terrifying!
