Suddenly hearing Zhang Yifei say this, Prost was obviously very surprised. Where did a professional driver recruit a group of racing R&D personnel? Isn’t it completely unfavorable to profession?

"Which group of R&D personnel are you going to?"

"China!"

"There are R&D personnel for Formula Racing in China?"

Prost felt that he was listening to the heavenly book. In China, there may not be many people who have touched Formula racing except Zhang Yifei, and they are also developing it? What a joke.

"If you say that R&D is a little bit more accurate, you may call it a technician. You must know that China has the best technicians in the world, hardworking, disciplined, efficiency and professionalism! All the advantages that can be described can be found in Chinese technicians. This is no exaggeration!"

Zhang Yifei began to brag wildly, but to be honest, this is not an exaggeration. After seeing those lazy foreigners, you can know that China is too far ahead of its technicians and workers in terms of practical work!

Also a country with a large population, Zhang Yifei is most afraid of meeting Indian employees abroad. He is just talking about the train running, and he is doing things in a mess. The most important thing is that he can still have a kind of confusion under the premise of a mess!

To put it bluntly, it takes only three days for such Indian employees to be in China!

Even if Zhang Yifei's identity as a Chinese person and recommends it from an objective perspective, he also believes that Chinese employees are the best in the world!

After listening to Zhang Yifei's description, Prost showed a hesitant look on his face. He did not doubt the discipline, diligence and other personal character factors of Chinese technicians. Because of the low-key and hard-working image of Chinese people, basically Europeans and Americans all know about it.

He just doubted the strength of Chinese technicians. Formula racing is at the top of the current pyramid of the automobile industry. Even if he does not participate in R&D work and simply starts, Prost feels that it is not qualified.

If Zhang Yifei recommended Chinese technicians to enter the convoy just because of his compatriots, Prost felt that this was a very irresponsible behavior.

Seeing that Prost was not saying anything, Zhang Yifei knew that the other party must be hesitating. At this time, he had to strike while the iron was hot! If Prost team was allowed to recover, it would be much more difficult to install personnel into racing research and development.

Not to mention that it only accounts for 40% of its shares now, it took almost ten years for Huali Group to control Volvo in the later generations to get some real information about the automotive platform and engine.

Currently, the Huali Investment Group, which Zhang Yifei has invested in, is in the same right as Prost, and the time may cost more.

Moreover, Zhang Yifei also understood that the time point of about two thousand years is the starting point for the crazy development of domestic civilian vehicles. If you spend more than ten years to develop some technology, objectively speaking, it is not slow, and it is much faster than the historical process. After all, this is the most top equation technology.

But the market doesn't wait for anyone. German, Japanese, and even Korean are attacking heavily to seize the market, and it will be even more difficult to counterattack.

The engine will definitely not be able to catch up with this aspect, but it is still possible to accumulate experience in chassis adjustment, aerodynamic layout, and even gearboxes in advance.

It has to be said that although French cars were sold poorly in China in later generations, they have a deep skill in chassis tuning. They can even use the torsion beam non-independent rear suspension to cross-level to play many multi-link independent suspensions.

All three major items of automobiles are indispensable. Even if you can only reach one of them to the peak, it is a better selling point. Zhang Yifei's current abilities can only help here.

"Boss, I know what you are worried about. China's current automobile industry is indeed backward, but it does not mean there are no heavy industry talents in automobiles. For example, the parent company behind Huali Investment Company, which invested in this time is Huali Automobile Group, which is a pioneer of private automobiles in China and has a group of high-spirited and passionate technicians."

"We can use the main R&D design of current engineers, and hand over the hands-on production work to Huali Automobile Group. This not only solves the tension in manpower, but also has extremely low prices. The R&D speed of AP05 will be greatly improved!"

Zhang Yifei lobbled wildly at this time, and he had a very good attitude towards the Indian San running a train.

In fact, he knew very well that the Huali Automobile Group of this era was at the level of being unable to pass the copycat. It was really a question whether it could collect all the technicians needed.

But sometimes, people will suffer losses if they are too honest, and they will miss opportunities if they can't seize them. It is also a specialty to fool things! Anyway, you must first determine the matter and then slowly solve it later. There are always more solutions than difficulties!

The more enthusiastic Zhang Yifei showed, Prost was not a fool, so naturally he knew what he wanted.

From the beginning when he pushed Chinese technicians Ah Hu and Chen Zhi into the convoy, it has shown that Zhang Yifei is actually a nationalist. But Prost did not refuse because he and Zhang Yifei were actually the same type of people, otherwise he would not have the dream of the French convoy.

There are two maintenance technicians, which are insignificant positions for the fleet. As long as they can perform well, it doesn’t matter if they are Chinese or Africans.

However, racing development is different. There are too many secrets involved. Even if it is just a technician, there is a great risk of leakage. Although the Prost team has accepted the investment from Huali Investment Group, the team's real core data and technology are still controlled by Prost.

At the same time, Prost also understands one thing, that is, he is now inseparable from Zhang Yifei and Huali Investment Group, and is a situation where both prosper and both prosper and both suffer losses.

Since I received Chinese funds to invest, I have already boarded the pirate ship. This is a reality that cannot be changed.

After all, you have to wait to die if you don’t get on the ship. Once the Prost team goes bankrupt, all core data and technology will become worthless. For example, the AP05 racing car that spent tens of millions of dollars in history was only a few hundred thousand dollars at auction, which was completely out of proportion.

Moreover, f1 racing technology is currently the fastest-renewing automobile industry in the world. It has to develop new racing cars and engines every year. Once stronger technology does not appear, it will fall behind immediately and will not even give you the opportunity to make do.

Technology is not afraid of being known, as long as it can maintain absolute leadership. And Prost still has a sense of arrogance in his heart, that is, he feels that Chinese R&D personnel cannot even meet the F1 threshold, so it doesn’t matter if they let them in.

After all, China is just a low-end manufacturing industry these days, relying on counterfeits, clothing and other things that do not have technical content to earn foreign exchange. The complete Sharingan function has not been activated, let alone upward research and development and industrial upgrading.

Arrogance is not the unique thinking of Prost. It is indeed the current Chinese are still relatively rare, just like what we feel when we look at Africa in later generations.

"I can consider using Chinese technicians, but I have to ensure that they can meet the requirements."

"No problem, they are far stronger than you think."

Zhang Yifei agreed and stuffed the person in first. After all, with the technical isolation agreement, it is already a big breakthrough to be able to put Chinese technicians so quickly.

With Prost's consent, it was just the beginning. The Huali Group only started a few years ago in 2000. Zhang Yifei was really confused about whether they had enough technical personnel.

After all, a high-tech thing like Formula racing is really not good. Even if it is not a design, any part customization and minor accuracy problems may lead to a failure in the competition.

All the premises of Zhang Yifei's goals and cooperation are based on Prost's rise. If the team cannot achieve results, it will be a complete end.

So Zhang Yifei met Wang Gang, the European Commissioner of Huali Group, overnight, and told him about his thoughts and the content of his conversation with Prost.

But after hearing this, Wang Gang was excited and had a deep worry, because the progress was developing too fast, completely beyond the previous plan that slowly penetrated, and he felt like he became fat in one bite.

"Yifei, this is indeed an excellent opportunity, but it is outside the plan of Huali Group. You also know that the main purpose of my visit is to build the European R&D center. The site has been selected and we are in talks with some automobile engineers. In addition, the previous 20 million US dollars invested in the Prost fleet, Huali Group is now very tight, and we cannot draw out so many technicians."

Wang Gang talked about the current difficulties of Huali Group. According to the original plan, Huali Group established a R&D center in Europe, accumulated some capital in automobile R&D, and then coordinated with the Prost R&D center to cooperate in R&D.

This process was long, and it was even known as the first five-year plan of Huali Group. As a result, Zhang Yifei skipped this link and went straight to the Prost Racing R&D Center. Huali Group's strength is too weak, and it is simply too willing but not enough.

"You don't have so many people, so you can find ways to find people from other domestic car companies, such as the old FAW, SAIC, Dongfeng, etc. If you can't dig them, just dig them with simpler ones, such as Chery, JAC, etc."

"If you don't have money, go to the bank to borrow it. If you can't borrow it, use your assets to mortgage it. Maybe the way I said is a bit simple and crude, but the truth is that it depends on whether you dare to do it!"

Zhang Yifei is not a business talent, so he can't describe any business theory. He is a simple and rough person, but his words are not rough.

When Huali Group was swallowing Volvo, it dared to spend all its money, gathered $1.8 billion in funds, completed the snake swallowing elephant, and obtained tens of thousands of automobile-related patents, making itself from a minion to a Fortune 500 company.

It took nine years to follow and finally issued an engine business merger notice on October 7, 2019, marking the absorption of Volvo's last technical barrier.
