Automotive Black Technology Chapter 972: : It feels a little unexpectedly good! (Ten thousand rewards plus updates/2)

"You mean, it was your team that invited me to join before?" After hearing what Li Fanyu said, Alonso's thick eyebrows wrinkled.
Just last year, although he believed that F1 had no passion for him, he still won a championship trophy for his employer Mercedes team with his professional ethics.
The racing track is a place where performance speaks for itself. If it had been in the past, he would have undoubtedly become the king of the racing world.
But this year Li Fanyu suddenly appeared and his amazing performance at Le Mans made him deeply suspicious.
In his opinion, just being fast is not something to be wary of. Around him, there are more than 20 guys with super licenses, including teammates Hamilton and Rosberg, and opponents such as Ricardo Raikkonen, all guys with speed.
But he can still get the highest points among this group of people. This comes from racing IQ and sheer consistency.
After watching the 24 Hours of Le Mans, which detonated the racing world, he was shocked by Li Fanyu's driving skills. While possessing absolute speed, he can also have route selection and tactical strategies that are as good as his own. Such a driver is not simple!
Such people are particularly terrifying to him.
So for Li Fanyu, his feelings are complicated; on the one hand, he regrets that he did not compete with such a person in the F1 arena; on the other hand, he also regrets that he did not meet such an opponent in the later stages of his career. And rejoice.
But now, a guy called himself to invite him to join his own team, which was also an FE team, which caused Alonso a lot of resistance and confusion.
"Hey, you are so rich, why don't you try F1? If you can make a car like Chunjun, I think I can consider cooperating with you."
Hearing Alonso's polite refusal, Li Fan smiled foolishly, "Fernando, you know that with the current technology, you cannot use a V6 engine to express the strength of the W16 standard. But in fact, you don't have to say it at all. Absolutely, now that FE's rules have been changed to allow teams to use self-developed batteries and motors, FE's cars will definitely become faster and faster, rather than slower and slower like F1, I think. Here you will experience the progress of this event in terms of speed, rather than the retreat like F1."
"But so far, those cars are still as slow as turtles, aren't they?" Alonso disagreed.
Li Fanyu couldn't argue with this, but he had his own way of persuading others: "Fernando, our car for FE has been trial-produced. I think you can test drive it and then consider whether what you just said is correct. Be objective. If you have time."
There was no mention of money in the conversation between the two, because one party was no longer interested in this aspect, and the other party was not short of money at all.
As for Alonso, although Li Fanyu has had grudges with him, he still appreciates this guy from the bottom of his heart. At least he relied on his driving skills to kill everyone. He can also be regarded as his own teacher.
Alonso was silent for a moment.
In fact, he really wanted to hide it and hang up the phone, but thinking about the Junjun he ordered and the flying electric motorcycle that guy made a few days ago, he agreed in a strange way.
. . . . . .
Two days later, when the race came to an end, Alonso boarded a plane to China alone.
In the workshop of Zhengxin High-Performance R&D Department, Alonso met Li Fanyu who was leading the engineers to adjust the FE test car.
"Hey!" Li Fanyu was very excited to see Alonso coming so quickly, "Fernando, I knew you would come!"
Alonso shrugged helplessly, "You'd better make my visit worthwhile. God can testify that I don't like wasting time."
Li Fanyu spread his hands, "I didn't expect you to come so quickly. The car is still being debugged."
Alonso gave him a cold look and walked to the side of the car.
"Well," Alonso's face softened a little when he saw the black aerodynamic kit, "I have to admit that in terms of the freedom of appearance of the aerodynamic kit, FE is indeed better than F1. Regardless of whether this car has performance, but first of all, I want to praise it, it is beautiful."
Li Fan smiled foolishly and said a few words to Wang Rui and others to ask them to stop.
"COMEON, Fernando, I believe you will be more interested in his inner being."
F1 drivers are directly involved in tuning, so the work they are doing now is also an area that Alonso is familiar with. And perhaps in this area, as one of the best drivers in the world, he has more say than most engineers.
As soon as the expert takes action, he will know whether it is there or not.
Ignoring the electric system, which he was unclear about, just walking around the car and seeing the tuning work Li Fanyu was doing, Alonso raised his head in surprise.
The sci-fi version of the racing car has a very large rear wing angle, which means that the tuners want to improve the stability of the car as much as possible without affecting the car's top speed competitiveness.
The angle of the front wing is also very large, which can provide maximum grip for the front wheel.
The chassis is very low, so low that it looks lower than many F1 cars Alonso has seen.
Just by taking a brief look at the appearance, Alonzo roughly understood the intention of the tuning team and asked the core question: "What is its maximum speed? Is it worth providing such a large amount of downforce to the body?"
Li Fanyu shrugged and said nothing.
Alonso shook his head and walked around the car again. This time, he looked carefully when he got serious;
The front springs of the car are very stiff, which allows the front of the car to react quickly and keep the ride height as low as possible.
The rear spring is very soft, which ensures that the rear of the car has sufficient traction when braking and accelerating into corners.
Contrary to this spring tuning, the front damping is very soft - this ensures the front wheel grips the road.
The rear damping is very hard - this can ensure the stability of the car's rear end in high-speed corners.
The two sets of anti-roll bars at the front and rear play a mediating role in the springs and dampers. It looks pretty average, but feels just right.
After circling around, Alonso walked up to Li Fanyu and said, "If possible, I would like to drive up and take a look. To be honest, for this kind of machine without an engine and gearbox, I always thought he was just a toy, not a racing car."
Li Fanyu raised his eyebrows and wanted to say something, but held it back.
Wang Rui on the side said with coquettish pride: "Mr. Alonso, you will change your mind."
Half an hour later, Alonso put on a racing suit provided by Li Fanyu, got up and stepped into the car.
Li Fanyu buckled down the transparent hatch cover above his head and said via wireless: "Fernando, this hatch cover is an extra-large size specially designed for you."
Alonso rolled his eyes, raised his middle finger, and stepped on the accelerator.
When the car entered the test track of the Zhengxin R&D Center, Alonso was stunned the moment he started to accelerate.
The driving feeling of this big toy. . . . . .
It’s a little unexpected!
