The car giant started by marrying the daughter of the king

Chapter 85 Skills That Shocked Everyone

In October in the capital, the weather is clear and the scorching heat has disappeared.

When I ride my bike to work in the morning, I no longer feel the heat and sweat all over my body.

Jiang Hui had just returned to the office from the cafeteria after having breakfast when he was stopped by someone from the factory office.

"Xiao Jiang, there will be an important reception later. Please come with me."

Zheng Haiming didn't beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose.

He also received a call very late yesterday, saying that a delegation from General Motors would come to visit the factory today.

What made him feel even more incredible was that the other party actually specifically asked Jiang Hui to attend the exchange meeting as well.

This matter clearly revealed a hint of weirdness.

"No problem, Director Zheng, is there anything special that I need to pay attention to during this reception?"

Jiang Hui sensed a hint of seriousness in Zheng Haiming's expression and wondered if some important leader would be attending this time.

"I don't know if you've heard of this before, but the First Ministry of Machine Building has sent invitations to many of the world's auto giants, inviting them to come to China for inspection."

"This time, the delegation coming is from General Motors. It is said that their chairman is leading the delegation personally."

"The First Ministry of Machine Building had not originally planned to arrange for them to inspect our factory. This time it was General Motors who suddenly proposed it."

"I don't know the specific situation yet, so I can only adapt to the situation as it arises."

"You should pay a little attention at that time. The other party specifically mentioned your name. I don't know if there is any special reason."

Zheng Haiming gave a brief explanation, but the information he knew was limited.

Because this inspection was arranged at the last minute, many heads of departments in the factory were waiting to report to Zheng Haiming, and he did not have time to communicate in detail with Jiang Hui.

With all kinds of questions in mind, Jiang Hui silently waited in the conference room for the next arrangements.

Fortunately, he didn't have to wait long before the GM delegation arrived at the factory gate.

At this time, foreign receptions are still treated very seriously and cautiously.

Qin Hao, director of the Automobile Bureau of the First Ministry of Machine Building, led a team and went to the factory gate with Zheng Haiming to welcome them. Then everyone went to the conference room to listen to the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant’s explanation of their factory’s history and current situation.

However, people at General Motors don't seem to be very interested in this.

After all, if we talk about history, General Motors has a much more glorious history.

"This BJ212 has made a significant contribution to the development of China's automobile industry. We saw a clay model of the new BJ212 in the newspaper. I wonder if we can visit it on site?"

After listening to the report, Edward proposed the idea of ​​GM.

This time they suddenly decided to visit the Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant, and the main reason was the appearance of the new BJ212.

Zheng Haiming and his colleagues were not stupid. After seeing the reaction of the people from General Motors, they probably knew that they were coming for the new BJ212.

However, the clay model of this car was published in the newspaper, so they didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

So soon, the group arrived at the clay model room.

Here, the GM team felt the charm of the new BJ212 more clearly.

“Who is the exterior designer of the new BJ212?”

Listening to the translator conveying Edward's words in a clear and clear voice, Zheng Haiming asked Jiang Hui, who was standing at the back, to come in front of everyone.

At this time, Jiang Hui didn't need to introduce himself, Zheng Haiming boasted about him and promoted him as the most outstanding designer in the history of Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant. When the people from General Motors saw that Jiang Hui was so young, some people must have doubts in their hearts.

"Jiang, I see that the appearance of the new BJ212 is completely different from the old one. Can you share your inspiration with everyone?"

At this time, Austin, as the design director of General Motors, began to take action.

He wanted to confirm first to see if Jiang Hui was really a talented car designer.

After all, they were not sure whether the thing in front of them was designed by Jiang Hui.

"To introduce the design inspiration of the new 212, we must first look at the iconic 'one arch, two circles, three horizontals, four verticals' family front face of the 212 off-road vehicle."

“After more than a decade of precipitation and baptism, it now has a new vitality in the simplified overall design, which not only inherits the classics, but also achieves the visual innovation of ‘changing the form but retaining the spirit’.”

"The new 212 basically retains the outline of the previous square-door hardtop version. The front face is almost identical to the old model, with a three-banner grille and a unique hood bulge, which has a very classic effect."

"The hood also uses very powerful ribs, and the two sides are decorated with round retro headlights."

After Jiang Hui began his professional explanation, everyone immediately discovered a problem.

That is, the speed and accuracy of the translation seem to be a bit behind the pace.

This is a very normal thing.

After all, the people responsible for translation are not professional automobile exterior designers and are not familiar with many professional terms.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Hui simply switched the language mode.

After confirming with Zheng Haiming whether he could introduce himself in English and getting a positive response, his fluent English immediately reached everyone's ears.

At this point, everyone, whether it was the First Ministry of Machine Building, Capital Automobile Manufacturing Plant, or General Motors, looked at Jiang Hui with admiration.

In the entire Chinese automotive industry, it is estimated that there is no one who speaks English more fluently than Jiang Hui.

A few years ago, knowing English was not a plus and might even bring you trouble.

But the situation is different now. Even China Channel has started broadcasting English lectures before going to bed.

This shows that China has realized that in order to deal with the West, it must be familiar with and master English.

Otherwise, there would be no way to communicate, let alone discuss cooperation.

"The overall profile of the side of the car is very square and tough, and the visual effect is basically the same as the current model, including the stepped waistline, but many details have been redesigned."

"The smoked black trim around the windows adds a sporty feel. The protruding wheel arches match the footrests, and the multi-spoke sports wheels show a youthful and dynamic look."

Jiang Hui spoke once in English and then again in Chinese.

He directly took away the translation job, making the translations prepared by both parties a little awkward.

"The entire rear end is also designed to be very simple, with three round lights on each side, which not only echoes the front face but also further adds to the retro feel of the car."

"In addition, the side-opening storage box and external spare tire design at the rear have also been retained, and a classic external tire is also installed, which still gives it a strong off-road feel."

"Overall……"

Jiang Hui spoke more and more fluently. He personally participated in the design of the entire new BJ212, and one could easily find a lot of things worth introducing to everyone.

He even explained part of the exterior design from an aerodynamic perspective, allowing everyone to have a deeper understanding of his professionalism.
