Reborn to dominate technology

"The moment of revelation is finally here!"

"I hope Audi can win glory for the country!"

"Even if Audi doesn't win any engine awards, I'll still sing their praises forever!"

"It's an exciting moment!"

"Go Audi!!"

Now, on the Shark Livestream platform, after enjoying a visual feast of automobiles, all the netizens are most eagerly awaiting the next segment.

"Trash Audi, you'll soon realize how far behind your engine technology is compared to foreign countries!"

"Audi, that car company, is only good at bragging!"

"Waiting to see them get slapped in the face!"

"Trash!"

In reality, even the trolls are looking nervous. They're hoping Audi's engine doesn't win any awards.

If they don't win, they can be even more arrogant in their attacks on Audi and domestic cars, blaming them for wanting Audi's powertrain.

As for why they attack Audi and domestic cars, it's simply to feel important.

Anyway, some people believe that only foreign products are the best, and if Great Xia can't produce the same things as foreign countries, they should boycott them.

…

Meanwhile, Jaime Medina is standing on the stage holding a document containing the tallied results.

In the Ward's official lounge, everyone except Lu Haifeng and Tang San can clearly feel the tense atmosphere.

The Audi employees are even more nervous, after all, it's their first time participating in the Ward's 10 Best Engines competition.

Xu Zhilin is nervously clenching his fists, after pouring so much effort into these two engines.

Amidst everyone's anticipation, Jaime Medina begins to speak.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the results of this year's Ward's 10 Best Engines and Powertrains testing and evaluation are out!"

"I know everyone is curious about the results, so I won't waste any more time!"

"I'll start by announcing the results from tenth place!"

As soon as Jaime Medina's words fall, everyone in the audience looks at him expectantly, waiting for him to announce the results quickly.

"The tenth place Ward's 10 Best Engine is the classic 5.0-liter V8 naturally aspirated engine from Ford!"

"This 5.0L V8 engine scored 572 points after our testing. Let's congratulate Ford."

As soon as Jaime Medina finishes speaking, the Ford employees in the lounge burst into cheers.

Employees from other car companies also step forward to congratulate them, while secretly envying the Ford employees.

Because when these people go back, they'll definitely receive a huge bonus. How could they not be envious?

At this moment, Walter, the design director of Volkswagen Group, comes to Lu Haifeng and says, "Mr. Lu, there are still nine spots left, you still have a chance!"

He intends to mock Lu Haifeng throughout the entire process, to get back at him for what happened earlier.

Lu Haifeng shrugs his shoulders, not caring at all, and replies to Walter's words, "Yes, there are still nine spots left, your Volkswagen Group still has a chance!"

"Alright, after congratulating Ford!"

"Next is the ninth-place Ward's 10 Best Engine of this year!"

"It's the 2.0L naturally aspirated engine from Hyundai. This engine has excellent performance and achieved a score of 586 points. Let's congratulate Hyundai!"

"Smi da! Our Korean country is the strongest!"

The Hyundai employees from Korea burst into excited cheers.

Walter, the design director of Volkswagen Group, speaks again in Lu Haifeng's ear.

"It doesn't matter, Mr. Lu, there are still eight spots left, you still have a chance!"

Lu Haifeng replies weakly, "Yes, there are still eight, your Volkswagen Group still has a chance!"

…

Amidst everyone's anticipation, Jaime Medina doesn't create any more suspense and announces the list of winners for this year's Ward's 10 Best Engines one by one.

"Next, it's…"

"Next, it's…"

"Next, it's…"

Each time Jaime Medina announces a winner of this year's Ward's 10 Best Engine on stage, employees from a car brand in the lounge roar and celebrate.

Because after winning an award, these people will receive different levels of rewards when they return, some with bonuses, some with promotions and salary increases, so how could they not be excited?

The annual Ward's 10 Best Engines competition is a contest between masters for these automotive powertrain engineers.

This is a unique contest between masters in the automotive industry.

Therefore, some are happy and some are sad. Those car companies that have won awards are celebrating, while those that haven't been selected are praying in their hearts as the number of remaining spots decreases.

Those automotive engineers can only pray in their hearts that the next winning engine will be from their car company.

Even if one of their car company's two engines wins an award, it's enough. Now they don't dare to hope that both engines can win together.

Because in so many years of Ward's 10 Best Engines selections, it seems that no car company has ever won two spots.

Standing next to Lu Haifeng, Walter, as Jaime Medina announces the results one by one, but none of them are Volkswagen Group's engines.

Walter and the automotive engineers from Volkswagen Group behind him all become nervous.

"Next, the fourth-place winner of this year's Ward's 10 Best is the 2.5-liter naturally aspirated engine from Toyota!"

"It must be said that Toyota Group's naturally aspirated engine can achieve a thermal efficiency of 41.7%. Their score is 624 points. Let's congratulate Toyota!"

"Yay…!"

Toyota Junko from Toyota Group and her subordinates are now celebrating excitedly. This selection result is definitely unexpected for Toyota.

In previous years, it was basically difficult for their Toyota engines to even be on the list, but they didn't expect to reach the fourth place this year.

Lu Haifeng sees the very excited Toyota employees and smiles and offers his blessings.

"Ms. Junko, congratulations to Toyota Group!"

"Thank you for your blessings, Peak-kun, there are still three spots left!"

"Peak-kun, please don't be discouraged, Junko will cheer for you all!"

Although she says she's cheering them on, in Toyota Junko's mind, Lu Haifeng and his team have no chance.

After all, before Audi's debut, Great Xia had never been able to produce its own car engines.

Even if Lu Haifeng bypassed all patent barriers and achieved a cornering overtake, developing an engine with independent intellectual property rights.
