Chapter 107 Nobel Prize in Literature

Although he was only a month apart, Caroline felt very distressed when she saw Zhou Nan losing a lot. Recommended: Xu Ming's new work "The Old Chapter" http://m./4_4760/

Thinking that the ingredients at night were not very rich, she asked the servant to buy a few kilograms of pig bones and came back to make soup for Zhou Nan.

Zhou Nan wanted to stop him, but after thinking about it, he simply followed her wishes.

This time, Zhou Nan brought back a lot of high-end bird's nests from Nanhua. At this time, of course, he took them out to make her happy.

However, at this time, she was not valued because she chatted with the general's wife for a while.

When he heard the general's wife talk about the three daughters-in-law who died and two left, and the two children were now lonely and helpless. He began to cry with the general's wife, feeling deeply distressed to the two children who had no father and mother left.

The rise of the Hoffman family is inseparable from the general's help, and this help is not the kind of conditional exchange of interests, but just the general's appreciation of Yannik.

This kind of emotional accumulation is a deep friendship between the two families. Therefore, Caroline did not dislike the general and his wife at all, but had real respect.

"You can live here with confidence. I will help Gila and Boydra contact a good school tomorrow. No matter what the general will end in the future, this will always be your home."

The old lady was obviously mentally prepared and sighed and said, "Our bank accounts have been blocked, but they are not blocked. Now the Mark is depreciated and is worthless. Originally, my mother's home was in Nassau, Rhineland, and we originally planned to go back there to live."

"Don't say this anymore. Yannik has always treated the general as his father and can't let you suffer. Now our family's conditions are better... It's better to stay in Wolfsburg just for the sake of two children."

The old lady sighed softly and agreed to this matter.

Caroline asked in a different way: "Nassau? Is it the birthplace of the Nassau Dynasty? There have been many ancient families with royal families?"

The old lady nodded with a smile. "It's a pity that there has been a long time ago. Nassau, the capital of the Bahamas, is more famous than our town now."

Seeing Zhou Nan restless, Caroline glared at him and said, "Okay, don't chat with us women here. Let's go chat with the generals and the others. I'll have to wait for a while for dinner."

After a short journey from the small prison, we came to this magnificent villa. Both children were a little uncomfortable, leaning close to their grandmother, looking at the unfamiliar environment with some restraint.

However, the kind Caroline prepared a beautiful room for them, making their little faces full of satisfying smiles.

Leon, who was in school, came back and was very happy to see Zhou Nan. He took Zhou Nan to see a four-wheel powered car he assembled himself.

The engine of this powered car is an old motorcycle, and the style is very similar to that of the beach motorcycle. Because Caroline did not allow him to ride a motorcycle, he thought of modifying the four-wheeled motorcycle.

Yanik was very supportive of his hobby and specially built a modification workshop for him in the garage, so that he could toss it out there.

Unfortunately, Zhou Nan had no interest in machinery. Although he thought his design was crude, he still praised him, which made him very proud.

No matter how bad he does, it is his hobby after all. This hobby is much better than going out to fight and picking up girls.

During dinner, Zhou Nan met several colleagues in his studio. Their interest in other aspects of Zhou Nan's achievements far exceeded his ability in car appearance design. A group of people became fans in front of him.

However, being able to be selected by Yanik and arranged to be a studio belonging to Zhou Nan shows that everyone is still capable.

The next day, Zhou Nan saw their abilities in a workshop of Volkswagen Factory.

The most conspicuous building of Volkswagen Factory is the power generation and casting workshop of the four large chimneys. This not only supplies the electricity needed by Volkswagen, but also carries out casting, die casting and forging of steel.

Last time I came here, I only used half of it, and the original tank die-casting workshop had not been used yet. However, this time I came here, it had been converted into a workshop for supporting automobile accessories.

Trains came in from the factory's dedicated railway, filled with brand new beetles, and then transported to other areas.

At present, the daily production of Volkswagen Factory has increased from more than 300 vehicles to more than 500 vehicles. In the future, the saturated production here can reach more than 2,000 vehicles per day.

Zhou Nan's studio was arranged in a supporting warehouse in the northeast of four large chimneys, occupying a warehouse of 700 to 800 square meters.

However, the working environment here is not very good, because between the warehouse and the canal, this is the original coal transfer center in Germany. Although the amount of coal storage has been greatly reduced now, as soon as the wind blows, coal ash will float everywhere.

Although Zhou Nan has not been here yet, his design draft has been hand-made with a total of six car models, including the two models, through the reverse molding and molding of the group of people.

Now, only the final dimensions and connections of these car models are left, and the structure needs to be finalized. Only after all these are determined and then after demonstration and testing can the trial production begin.

The appearance design of a car is completely different from that of a clothing. The design of a clothing is as long as you have the drawings and copy them.

But the design of a car is much more complicated.

The main business capabilities of automotive designers are reflected in their two-dimensional and three-dimensional styling capabilities, plus their extremely extensive knowledge reserves and trend prediction capabilities.

However, these are only essential skills and knowledge, not design abilities. Design requires the ideological work that coordinates the above and uses skills to show its ideas.

Moreover, design ability requires longer practical training.

In addition to these, designers also need courses such as man-machine engineering, mechanical principles, material technology, etc. to help accumulate relevant knowledge.

Seeing the preparations they did, Zhou Nan realized that he had taken out some drawings, which meant that it could help the public. It was a bit of a matter of course.

If it weren't for Yannik's 100% belief in Zhou Nan, if it weren't for him, he was also a major shareholder of Volkswagen. His design drafts were just some sensational concepts and would not have been adopted at all.

A car, from concept to physical object, is like a child from birth to college, and requires numerous procedures.

Because of Yanik's trust in Zhou Nan, he can regard his design as the ultimate goal and trace the origin purposefully.

To give a very simple example, if the shell is designed, where the engine is installed, how to connect, the direct connection between the bumper and the fender, the design of the chassis, even the size of the wheels, the installation position of the shock absorber, etc., this requires the joint efforts of many people to complete.

Zhou Nan had no idea about these things at all. What he could do was to draw them according to his memory of some cars in later generations.

For example, the current steering wheel is an iron ring, which is extremely simple, and Zhou Nan can draw a more beautiful steering wheel.

The dashboard design of this era is also extremely simple, and Zhou Nan can draw beautiful dashboards.

Even including the seats, Zhou Nan can draw various styles that are more beautiful than they are now.

As for the architecture, connection and craft design inside, it can only be done by others.

Zhou Nan has been busy with these designers in the warehouse for three days. Every line, angle, and connection of the car body needs to be finalized.

The drawings he drew became the technical secrets that Yanick valued the most. Many things that Zhou Nan didn't know were actually included in the entire technological development law of industrial technology upgrading.

For example, an inconspicuous bump on the hood and an inconspicuous groove on the bumper may involve huge wind resistance. Many inconspicuous things contain rules that are difficult to break through.

Zhou Nan is not sure about the importance of adapting to the development of the times, the development of trends, and the development of technology, but now Yanik is very clear about it.

As long as a large factory does not take detours and no longer wastes huge amounts of money on many irrelevant technologies, the development of this company will definitely be faster than any peer.

If Zhou Nan hadn't been too famous now, there were many other and more important things. Yannik wanted him to systematically learn all aspects of automotive design techniques, so that Zhou Nan could understand how important the things he knew were.

Zhou Nan couldn't find the direction at the beginning, and it took three days to finally allow these technicians in the design room to keep up with his ideas and achieve results in the process.

But on October 10, an explosive news forced him to prepare to leave Wolfsburg.

On the morning of October 10, Gao Benhan, the then dean of the Swedish Academy of Literature, announced in Stockholm that the winner of the 1947 Nobel Prize in Literature was a Swiss Chinese scholar, Zhou Nan, who was only 25 years old.

In fact, when he read the award review, he had not read Zhou Nan's name yet, and the whole world already knew that Zhou Nan had won the award.

Zhou Nan's award-winning comment was: "He used his rich but imaginative thoughts and brilliant artistic skills to create the most serious and lively historical masterpieces in the world. His greatness lies in his noble style, compassionate humane sympathy, and charming personal charm. Eastern and Western cultures have been perfectly integrated in him, and all readers have gained profound knowledge in ease."
