18: The shock of the super carburetor

Early the next morning, Qin Yang brought Wang Liguo and several other Death Warriors to the Great Wall Automobile Factory.

After communicating with the gate guard, they were allowed to enter.

The Great Wall Automobile Factory is the largest car manufacturer in H City, and can be called the star enterprise of H City, paying over a billion in taxes annually.

Following the directions of a guard, Qin Yang arrived at the factory's administrative building. At the entrance on the first floor, a very beautiful woman was standing by the door.

Seeing Qin Yang and the others approach, she quickly walked over to greet them.

"You must be CEO Qin. I am Bai Xue, CEO Wang's Administrative Assistant. CEO Wang is waiting for you in his office. Please follow me." Bai Xue finished speaking and extended her hand, indicating for him to proceed.

Qin Yang nodded and said, "Thank you, Assistant Bai."

He then followed her onto the elevator.

The elevator stopped on the eighth floor. Upon reaching the entrance of the President's Office, Qin Yang told the others to wait, and he walked in with Wang Liguo.

The President of the Great Wall Automobile Factory is Wang Jian, an elegant-looking older man. When he saw Qin Yang, he enthusiastically shook his hand and was extremely polite.

After taking their seats, Wang Jian was the first to ask, "May I ask why CEO Qin is looking for me today? I believe this is the first time we've met, correct?"

Qin Yang nodded and said, "Yes, CEO Wang. Actually, I came today seeking cooperation with the Great Wall Automobile Factory. A Mechanical Engineer under my employ accidentally invented a super carburetor. The effect of this carburetor is astonishing, which is why I took the liberty of disturbing you."

"A carburetor? CEO Qin, don't you know that most cars no longer use such an outdated product? Excuse my frankness, but I don't think cooperation is possible. Our factory currently uses imported Electronic Fuel Injection systems. Switching to a carburetor would be a technological regression!" Wang Jian was stunned upon hearing this, then politely refused.

"CEO Wang, of course I know the advantages of Electronic Fuel Injection, but I hope you'll let me finish. Our factory's super carburetor is different from traditional carburetors. It can be called an upgrade to Electronic Fuel Injection technology. This super carburetor is not only more fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly than EFI technology, but its maintenance is also as simple as a traditional carburetor, and most importantly, its price is as cheap as a traditional carburetor." Qin Yang, fearing Wang Jian's firm refusal, quickly stated the advantages of the super carburetor.

As expected, Wang Jian replied skeptically after listening, "CEO Qin, that might be an exaggeration. I know the benefits of carburetors, but the reason they were phased out was their high fuel consumption and failure to meet environmental standards. If what you say is true, please provide the physical item for verification."

Hearing this, Qin Yang felt that today's pitch had a chance, so he smiled and said, "CEO Wang, I have already brought the sample. I wouldn't dare disturb you without the physical item. Actions speak louder than words; you can arrange the test right now."

Wang Jian nodded. This old man had fought for the Great Wall Automobile Factory his entire life. Now, there are countless domestic and foreign car companies, and the competitive pressure is immense. If the carburetor Qin Yang described was truly as excellent as he claimed, it could become a major selling point for Great Wall Motors. After all, most car users know that vehicles using carburetors have strong power and are less prone to issues.

The Great Wall Automobile Factory has its own internal Testing Facility.

Soon, Wang Jian arranged for an older model of a Great Wall Motors vehicle to be brought over. This car used a carburetor, not Electronic Fuel Injection.

Wang Jian originally wanted to have his factory's Engineers replace the super carburetor, but Qin Yang stopped him and gave Wang Liguo a chance to demonstrate.

Wang Liguo received the instruction and replaced the super carburetor and performed the optimal tuning in just a few minutes.

"CEO Qin, this Master next to you is excellent; his movements are truly swift!" Wang Jian praised Wang Liguo's performance.

"CEO Wang, this is the Head Master of our factory. He accidentally researched and developed the super carburetor. Speaking of which, he shares your surname!" Qin Yang replied.

Wang Jian nodded with a smile.

Immediately, the test began.

First, they tested fuel consumption. The main selling point of Qin Yang's super carburetor was that it was even more fuel-efficient than Electronic Fuel Injection, so this was naturally the focus of the test.

A factory staff member got into the car and began the evaluation on the professional testing ground. Since the test would take a while, Wang Jian invited Qin Yang to wait in a nearby Pavilion.

Time quickly passed, and soon, Wang Jian's assistant, Bai Xue, ran over excitedly.

"CEO Wang, the evaluation results are out."

"How is it?" Wang Jian remained very calm at this point.

"Fuel consumption is 1.7 liters per hundred kilometers!"

"What!" Hearing Bai Xue's report, Wang Jian shot up to his feet. As a man who had dealt with cars his entire life, he understood the status of his own factory's vehicles too well, which was why he was so shocked!

Immediately, Wang Jian snatched the Evaluation Sheet from Bai Xue's hand. It listed many details about the car's recent test, but the fuel consumption per hundred kilometers on the last line was extremely dazzling.

After reading it, Wang Jian closed his eyes and calculated silently. The old car they had just tested used to consume about eight liters per hundred kilometers with a regular carburetor. After updating and switching to Electronic Fuel Injection, the fuel consumption was four liters per hundred kilometers. Currently, the price of oil is 7 yuan per liter, meaning that using EFI costs 0.28 yuan per kilometer. This was because the car had a small displacement; for larger displacements, it could reach 0.4 or 0.5 yuan per kilometer.

But with the super carburetor, it only costs 0.11 yuan per kilometer. This price could compete with Pure Electric Vehicles. The reason electric cars are popular now is simply because they save money; in terms of pure performance, gasoline cars still completely outperform electric cars.

Instantly, countless possibilities appeared in Wang Jian's mind. When Wang Jian opened his eyes, he said to Bai Xue, "Continue the test. Arrange to test large displacement vehicles. I want the fuel consumption data for all displacement models!"

"Understood, CEO Wang, I'll go arrange it right away!" Bai Xue replied and quickly left.

Next, Wang Jian looked at Qin Yang. A brilliant smile now appeared on his face: "CEO Qin, I apologize. I previously thought you were joking with me. I never expected you to give me such a huge surprise."

"CEO Wang, you are too kind. I sought cooperation with you to make money. If we reach an agreement, this will be mutually beneficial!" Qin Yang replied.

"Yes, yes, yes. Well, the testing will take some more time. Please don't worry, CEO Qin. I will host dinner tonight, and we must have a few drinks together, CEO Qin!"

"Having a few drinks is fine, but let me host, CEO Wang. Actually, I own a Restaurant nearby; the food is excellent, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

"How can I accept that?" Wang Jian replied with a chuckle.

Qin Yang could understand Wang Jian's sudden display of enthusiasm. Establishing oneself in this society is simply this realistic: if you possess value that others need, you will be met with smiles everywhere; otherwise, you will naturally face obstacles at every turn.
