Chapter 533 The first vehicle in the vehicle industry

Mackinac is a failure that Tingwei Company was confident about, because the product manager used configurations that the target customers could not afford, creating this monster.

I have to say that although it was a coincidence, Lille now has some feelings for this weird model.

Fortunately, Mackinac is a brand.

This brand is actually still in the hands of Tingwei Company, but it is obvious that the orthodoxy is with Mackinac General Vehicle Manufacturing Company.

Although the legal representative of Mackinac General Vehicle Company is Sherman, it can actually be regarded as belonging to Lille, because this company is registered in Night City.

Before owning this company, Lille had the business of modifying cars including Adecado, the Six Street Gang and the Tiger Claw Gang. Adecado modified it into an off-road vehicle, the Six Street Gang modified it into an urban armed vehicle, and Tiger Claw. The gang mainly works on motorcycles, and the business is relatively small.

These car modification mechanics are intellectuals to the gang, but to be honest, they are just technicians. Modification of cars is okay, but building a car from scratch

Not their specialty.

Marvel does have a lot of engineers, but now it’s time to hire people, so it’s impossible to guide production there all the time.

Sherman has an entire team of engineers, including mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, systems integration engineers, manufacturing engineers, materials engineers and quality engineers, and he is an experienced project manager himself.

Before the Mackinac team was separated, Lille would not let them have access to the technology applied by Damai, and they could only do very basic guidance, such as connecting lines and providing some experience.

But it’s different now. They can directly contact Adecado in the red shirt factory, use the furnace to forge Croni titanium, and create real Mackinac according to demand——

Yes, it is a real Mackinaw, not a fake sold by Tingwei Company.

Although Mackinac General Vehicle Manufacturing Company has not completely completed the process, it is already ready to look at its products——

This car refers to the original appearance design of the Mackinaw pickup truck, and is produced using technology that has been a fusion of the two worlds, as well as data tuned by the on-board AI Damai himself.

And like artificial blood, it will be produced by workers and engineers from both worlds at the same time through cross-dimensional collaboration. On the one hand, it is to help the African Union improve basic industrial capabilities and further reduce the cost of industrial materials, including graphene batteries and Croni Titanium, these high-end materials.

On the other hand, it is also to increase the stability of Atlas Group's overall supply chain capabilities. If a war is to be fought, the demand for external supplies must be reduced.

The vehicles currently used by Atlas Group are all products produced by other manufacturers. They are designed by Atlas and produced by them.

This method of cooperation is not reliable, not even in times of war.

[Added cross-dimensional industrial production category: Mackinac Mammoth (vehicle)]

[Description: A civilian vehicle independently produced by the Atlas Group and the entire industry chain of the Night City Hamburg criminal group. It uses Croni titanium to replace the conventional high-strength steel frame. It is equipped with distributed graphene batteries and is equipped with a high degree of intelligence. The vehicle-mounted AI, which is second only to dangerous critical bodies, assists in controlling the form and attitude, and can input weapon data to achieve intelligent fire control.

Although it is a civilian vehicle, it only needs some weapon modifications to be used for military purposes, and buyers basically use it this way. 】

[Data: 800-horsepower Vulture VUL21 engine (gasoline and electric); net vehicle weight: 4,536 kilograms; top speed: 300 kilometers per hour; chassis can withstand 20 kilograms of TNT equivalent mine explosion; vehicle AI; full-time four-wheel drive. 】

[Current cross-dimensional industrial categories: medicine and biotechnology (level 1); vehicles (level 1)]

[Quantum Resonance (Level 1): Reduce the probability of yield reduction caused by uncontrollable factors such as process fluctuations, human factors, and interference factors within design tolerances, and improve production efficiency and quality close to ideal values. 】

Engineers from both fields will divide the production line data into individual modules and package them into skill chips. Workers can start operating directly after simple learning. The training cycle is greatly shortened and confidentiality is high.

The entire vehicle design was integrated by Lear. After completing all this, Lear took a look at his system panel and thought that it was indeed time for him to refine his supply chain and industry.

【News from another world:】

[Sherman: Guigui. Dad, are your data a little too outrageous? This car]

[Lille: How much do you think this car can be sold for? 】

[Sherman: Well, I have to look at the cost. According to my understanding of the market, it has to be anything. I can’t say. 】

[Sherman: Dad, generally military vehicles of this level cost about 100,000 to 200,000 euros. Our car may be a bit too high-end. 】

[Lille: Then sell this much. 】

As an entry-level Mackinaw, Mammoth’s data comprehensively exceeds the data of other companies’ vehicles at this level, and not by a little.

This makes people a little bit confused: Lear's requirement for the car is an entry-level armored vehicle, but in fact the space of this car is not that big. Sherman feels that it can compete with large armored transport vehicles like Beamon. .

For example, this 800 horsepower, to be honest, is a bit too powerful and not necessary at all, and the chassis can withstand the explosion of 20 kilograms of TNT. To be honest, it is already the product quality of a company at the level of military technology.

The first car of a small factory with no-name brands has the product quality of a multinational military giant. And it is the product quality of a vehicle of the same level. The previous pricing experience is already a little unreliable.

But in terms of production costs, Lear did not mark the R\u0026D costs for him at all, so if only considering the production costs, the main expenses are Croni titanium and graphene batteries. As for other high-strength steel and parts

It can only be said that they are not expensive, and can even be said to be cabbage prices.

It is not that there is no profit in 200,000 euros, it is just a little less.

[Sherman: Then our production capacity. Well, we don’t have much production capacity, but this kind of armored vehicle usually needs official approval before it can be sold to units with purchasing qualifications. If there are other channels]

[Lill: There will be other channels, hurry up and wire it. ]

[Sherman: Okay, Dad, the old captain said he also wants to buy one, you see]

[Lill: Don’t ask me about such trivial matters. 】

The first car is for David. This guy is lucky to be the first customer of Mackinac General Vehicles. This car will even be the basic model of the president's car on Marvel's side.

As for who the next customer will be, it actually doesn't matter much.

Lear walked out of the control room and prepared to walk to the reception room. He thought silently in his heart: David is quite stupid, and I feel very trustworthy - I just don't think he will suddenly betray.

But to be honest, their team seems very uncontrollable.

I hope they don't let me down and find out the intelligence that the agent has.

Lear got up from the control console, walked out of the control room, took the private elevator, and prepared to go to the reception room -

This reception room is actually in the basement of the Atlas headquarters building, which is very suitable for doing some secret things. To put it bluntly, Lear killed someone in it, and this murder case can only become an unsolved case.

It seems that Pepper and Happy are really anxious.

It can't be that Tony Stark was kidnapped by Roxxon, right?
