Chapter 83 King George V
Why? Cyric's expression became serious: "Because Rolls-Royce does not only produce cars, they also produce aircraft engines! Moreover, it is the engine of Britain's most advanced fighter jets! Even if Rolls-Royce does not agree with our acquisition, We also have to suppress this company to bankruptcy!"
Of course, Cyric knew that the fire-breathing of later generations would depend on Rolls-Royce's engines!
Without an engine with advanced performance, no matter how good the aircraft design is, it is useless! How good is the Merlin engine? Seeing that even the Mustangs will use this engine in later generations, you will know!
If Rolls-Royce can be moved to Germany, it can improve the research and development level of German fighter jet engines! If they don't want to, keep Rolls-Royce out of business! Let their Merlin engine be unable to continue to develop! Dig a large number of R&D personnel into BMW and Mercedes-Benz companies with high salaries!
With the ideal of serving the country and thinking that they must contribute their intelligence to the motherland, they are a minority after all! Most of the engineers have a love for machinery, and they need a bigger stage to show their talents!
Some people will be tempted in the face of money. There is nothing that can't be solved by one million pounds. If there is, it will be two million pounds!
Like now... well, watch the show!
At this moment, in the distance, there was a sudden commotion!
A luxurious and noble car came from a distance, and there were more than a dozen honor guards riding high-headed horses in front of them, with high feathers on the top of their heads.
royal family! That's a royal Rolls Royce!
Everyone cheered with excitement, it's the king! His Majesty is down!
Upstairs, Cyric also opened his eyes.
King George V!
George V, full name George-Frederick-Ernst-Albert, second son of Edward VII and Queen Alexandra, cousin of German Emperor Wilhelm II!
In other words, the current King of England is actually a German!
It's a pity that this guy didn't remember his past kindness at all. During the First World War, he gave up his German surname and renamed the royal family "Windsor", inspiring the British people to fight against Germany, and finally put his own Cousin was beaten down!
The current George V does not have much affection for Germany, he has completely stood on the British position!
This time Cyric came to the UK. Because of his identity, Cyric didn't have any chance to meet George V. Cyric didn't care about it. Anyway, this old guy will die in a few years. .
Unexpectedly, the King of England actually came to participate in this experiment!
In fact, the current George V's health is not very good. A serious illness a few years ago made him almost lose his strong body, but he is still keen on various activities.
For example, the British called George V the "Sailor King". It is because he is still keen to participate in the speedboat race despite his illness.
His king's special speedboat "Britain" is his favorite. In every rowing competition, George V will deliberately put on the navy uniform, radiant and radiant, as if he has returned to his youth.
Rowing and sporting activities, stamp collecting, are George V's favorites.
Now, George V heard that there is a vehicle test here, which is the Rolls-Royce car case that finally made a lot of noise, so George V came.
"Your Majesty, I'm very happy that you can come and participate in our experiment." Royce was very excited when he saw the king come down from above, wearing that characteristic uniform.
George V nodded: "I heard that the performance of Rolls-Royce cars is to be tested here, so I specially brought Rolls-Royce from the royal family. How about it? Do you want to let this car of the royal family, also Participating in a race? Personally, I'm quite satisfied with Rolls-Royce."
Hearing the king's words, Royce was very moved.
As the King of England, George V is quite competent.
The Rolls-Royce incident had a great impact on Royce. This car almost lost the trust of the people, and the people were betrayed.
However, Rolls-Royce is a major British car manufacturer and engine manufacturer after all. If Rolls-Royce falls, it will be quite unfavorable to Britain. At this time, His Majesty the King resolutely stands by Rolls-Royce. !
Although Rolls-Royce's performance was well publicized, it was still difficult to convince the public after all. You must know that this is a carefully maintained car pulled from Rolls-Royce! All aspects are in good condition! It might even be reinforced.
This car can pass through the most potholed road section here, or at the highest speed, which is not convincing! On the contrary, if it is a random car, such as this Rolls-Royce of the king, it can tell the problem!
Rolls-Royce cars, no quality problems!
Have confidence in the king's car? Of course it is!
You know, the royal family's car is naturally better maintained! Moreover, when it comes to production, it is the most refined! This car is absolutely fine!
"Your Majesty, thank you for your support." Royce was so excited that his beard was shaking.
"Well, then we are here to see the performance of this car." George V said.
Inside the long front of the car, the engine was roaring, and the driver of the royal family had come down and was replaced by a Rolls-Royce test driver. At the same time, Rolls-Royce's technicians also circled the car. Turning around, there are so many people now that they can't open the engine compartment to check, but they can also deduce it just by sight and sound.
"No, there's not much fuel." Le Fussi said, "If you want to run the full distance, you need to add more fuel."
With just one glance at the bottom of the oil gauge, Leversy discovered the big problem of carelessness.
The rear fuel tank cap was opened, and a barrel of gasoline was poured into it.
Now, everything is ready!
start!
In the eyes of all eyes, watch this luxurious and luxurious Phantom 2 car start quickly from the starting position!
In this era, Rolls-Royce's car engines are the most advanced! A Rolls-Royce car that can easily accelerate to 100 km/h!
In this case, a small bump can cause huge problems!
I saw that the wheels of this car sometimes pressed into the potholes, and sometimes bounced! The car even takes off when it's traveling at such a fast speed!
In this case, the car is still in good condition, without any problems!
Seeing the car's dashing performance, everyone present cheered.
Royce is very happy that after this performance, the accusation of the defects of his own car's performance will be eliminated!
"Oh, no!" At this moment, Royce suddenly shouted.
