Chapter 715 Electric Cars and Electromagnetic Guns(1/2)

Hearing Qin Tao's words, Ma Ming looked over curiously: "Mr. Qin, if we build our own car factory, it will cost a lot of money, even if it is a bankrupt car factory, it will be no exception, and it will even be more complicated. Why don't you agree?

SAIC OEM?"

"We want to build our own industrial chain. We are electric vehicles, which are different from those fuel vehicles. Moreover, since we want to do it, we have to engage in industry and let others do the manufacturing for us. We just make PPT cars and then increase the stock price. What's the point?

What's the meaning?"

Qin Tao wants to be down-to-earth and work hard. In later generations, electric vehicle manufacturing companies are divided into many types. The number one company has its own car factory, with huge output, which is equivalent to the combined production capacity of the next few. What about the next few?

If you don't own a car factory, you just need to purchase some parts, assemble them in a foundry, and then package them in various ways to sell them at a high price and look high-end.

No matter how high the stock value is, it's just a matter of speculation. If you don't even have your own factory, what else can you have?

Since Qin Tao wants to develop electric vehicles, he must do it in a real way. He must have his own automobile factory. As for investment, there is no way to build an industry without spending money.

Golden Sun electric vehicles actually have two routes. They can only engage in research and development, and then sell the research and development results to automobile manufacturers for them to develop. But in this era, it is estimated that no traditional automobile factory has the courage to take such a big step forward.

We are moving towards electric vehicles, so we still have to do it ourselves.

"Nowadays, many automobile factories in China cannot keep up with the development of the times and are gradually falling behind." Ma Ming said: "For example, Feihu, Red Star, Camellia, etc. However, these automobile factories are heavily in debt, and the factories only have

There are only incompetent people left, and if we were to acquire them, we would have to expend a lot of effort."

Ma Ming really didn't want to do this. Just thinking about it made him feel dizzy.

All bankrupt companies have a common problem: poor management, backward technology, and workers in the factory are all old-fashioned. It is not easy to change. It can be said that no matter how much money is invested, it may be wasted.

"Moreover, the cities where these car factories are located are not big. After we acquire them, we have to send personnel there. Many people are accustomed to Huating and are unwilling to go to small places."

Qin Tao nodded: "Well, the problems you mentioned are all problems, but they are not problems. We only acquire their car-making qualifications, and then we build a car factory in Huating and build cars ourselves."

Qin Tao had already thought about this, but he never explained it to Ma Ming in detail.

Of course, cars must be built in Huating. After all, there is a complete automobile industry chain here, and it is also easy to attract talents. Who doesn’t want to stay in a big city like Huating?

However, he was unwilling to rely on others, so he could only buy a bankrupt automobile factory for no other reason than for the qualification, or birth certificate.

Not everyone can just build a car, you have to have status. Before the country carried out reforms, domestic automobile factories of all sizes had benefited from it, and they were directly qualified to build cars. However, subsequent car-making companies, especially private enterprises, had the right to build cars.

, it is not easy to build a car. Even if the local government gives the green light, it will be in vain if the superiors do not issue a certificate.

If this problem is not solved, the cars produced will not be able to get license plates and will not have household registration.

There are many solutions. Acquiring a bankrupt automobile factory to obtain qualifications is one of them. Even if Qin Tao is well-known in the military industry, it has nothing to do with the automobile manufacturing industry. If he wants to enter this market, he can only

Take this curved approach to save the country.

"Is the price too high?" Ma Ming asked cautiously.

Just to buy a car qualification and then buy the entire car factory? Even if it is a bankrupt car factory, the price is not low.

Hearing Ma Ming's words, Qin Tao shook his head: "Of course not. We bought the qualifications to build a factory here in Huating. The land where the original automobile factory was was can be completely bulldozed and then build a building. We

The infrastructure department of Mingzhou Group must also contribute to local construction."

In the past, automobile factories were built in the centers of cities, or in other words, many cities were developed around factories. After buying an automobile factory and then razing it to build a building, you can definitely make a lot of money. In this era,

Real estate is definitely the most profitable business.

Mingzhou Group is engaged in industry. Even if it has an infrastructure department, it is engaged in big business, such as building ports and shipyards. However, if it encounters some opportunities to help develop urban construction in a certain place,

That's normal too.

At this time, after hearing what Qin Tao said, Ma Ming finally understood something. Wu Shengli, who was sitting next to him, said with a smile: "Are you going to be a developer?"

"We still focus on industry, and just do construction as long as it's convenient. If we specialize in real estate development, forget it."

Wu Shengli nodded: "Our country's policies still have many imperfections, and many of them will be gradually liberalized. In the future, if you want to engage in the automobile industry, your superiors should be able to relax. Now you are doing this, and you are the only one."

I support this approach. However, can your electric vehicle technology be used in the military?"

Wu Shengli is still concerned about the development of the military industry.

After hearing what he said, Qin Tao nodded without thinking: "Of course. Dad, of course our electric vehicle technology can be extended to the military industry."

Ma Ming frowned, Mr. Qin, this is a big statement!

Military equipment never cares about fuel consumption or exhaust emissions, it only cares about performance! If the military vigorously promotes electric vehicles, then once it runs out of power, it will take several hours to charge. Isn't this a pitfall?

"For example, in order to pursue higher underwater endurance for the conventionally powered submarines of the island nation, they plan to replace the lead-acid batteries with lithium batteries, thereby greatly improving the underwater endurance without making too many changes." Qin Tao said:

"In the future, when our technology matures, we can use the same solution at any time."

The domestic choice is the Stirling engine. Although the output power is low and can only meet the low-speed underwater navigation capability, this engine is very reliable. This has been verified in the last exercise between the Pyramid State and the US Navy. Of course

, there are other routes.

For example, the Germans took the fuel cell route. They boasted it was very high-end, but in fact, their fuel cells never worked properly, often causing submarines to collapse. In later generations, even the powerful German submarine force did not even have a single submarine.

A submarine can be on combat readiness duty, either undergoing maintenance or on the way to maintenance.

In addition to these routes, the battery is directly replaced. Lithium batteries have high energy density, can store more electricity, and are easy to modify, making them the most suitable layout.

Of course, before we try it, we will first use mature lead-acid batteries and stack them in diesel-electric submarines. The number of batteries is many times that of electric vehicles, and the failure rate will be higher.

Hearing what Qin Tao said, Ma Ming reacted and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, the plan mentioned by Mr. Qin is feasible, but you have to take your time and don't rush for success."

"We will also develop autonomous driving technology for electric vehicles. These technologies will also play a great role in military equipment." Qin Tao continued.

Ma Ming's eyes lit up again. Mr. Qin was so awesome. He couldn't think of these things, but Mr. Qin could think of them all!

The key to electric vehicles is the three electric vehicles, but other systems must also be modified according to electric standards. For example, the steering assist system can use an electric motor as a boost. If the existing hydraulic power steering is used, a special

of hydraulic booster pump.

The same is true for brakes. Traditional car brakes use engine vacuum assist, which uses the vacuum created by the engine when it inhales to increase braking force. But in electric cars, there is no vacuum created by the piston engine's inhale. What should I do?

?So the brakes must also be electric brakes, and electric brake pumps are specially manufactured.

Everything is controlled electronically, which creates opportunities for autonomous driving.

Power, steering, and braking are all electrically controlled, which can be completely controlled by a computer! Autonomous driving has begun to take shape, and our own Beidou has also been launched into the sky, and functions such as positioning are no longer a problem.

Wait, there seems to be another key question!

"Mr. Qin, how do we solve the problem of sensors in our autonomous driving technology?" Ma Ming asked: "This is different from the autonomous driving of airplanes. The situation on the road is very complicated."

There are also automatic controls on the spacecraft. The pilot of the passenger plane can take off and land automatically and fly automatically without even having to do anything. But the sky is high and birds can fly, but the ground is not that empty.

If various vehicles, pedestrians, and traffic lights cannot be observed, autonomous driving will not be successful.

"This problem is not a problem." Qin Tao said: "You can use laser radar or visual algorithms, but you don't have to worry about these, just leave it to Goose Factory to do it."

Qin Tao's trust in Goose Factory is also growing. He has long given up the idea of ​​losing his job after just one vote. Even if it encounters the Internet bubble, Goose Factory will continue to develop. They have developed into a major Internet company.

There are also many real products.

Lidar is a bit old, expensive and has simple functions, so we can use visual algorithms for the time being. After this thing is developed, it will still be of great use. Golden Sun electric cars are sold all over the world, and the conditions in various places can be monitored through on-board cameras.

Include it in the database!

In particular, electric cars are still high-end products, and only high-end people have the capital to use them. Wherever they go, they are all good places!

Thinking of this, Qin Tao is even more full of expectations. After five years or even ten years of work, this Golden Sun Automobile will become the main source of profit for their Golden Sun Company!

Since Qin Tao said he would leave it to the Goose Factory, Ma Ming doesn't have to worry about anything. He is indeed not good at this kind of thing. What he is good at is power supply and motors. The rest can be left to professionals.

.

Qin Tao is not particularly concerned about the electric vehicle project. After all, in his eyes, this project is not a military project, but a civilian profit-making project. Anyway, Mingzhou Group is not short of money, and Golden Sun Motor Company is not short of money either, so there is no need to worry.

, just tinker with it slowly. If you tinker with this thing too fast, it may be easy to cause problems.

"Mr. Qin, when these problems are solved, what will our car look like? Will it be a two-door sports car or a five-door sedan?"

Currently, the only mass-produced electric car in the world is General Motors' Impact. This car is so expensive that General Motors doesn't even plan to sell it. Instead, it rents it to very special customers.

Rich people can't afford it for ordinary people.

This kind of car is high-end, so it uses a two-door sports car style. It is not a normal family car anyway, and the characteristics of the electric motor: large torque and fast speed increase are exactly in line with the characteristics of a sports car. A normal family car can accelerate from 0 to 100 mph.

It is difficult to get within five seconds, or even within ten seconds. All cars are good. However, electric cars can easily run within five seconds. Even with the help of stacked batteries, they can break the 100-meter mark in three or four seconds.

Those V8 or even V12 engines, of course, will give up after breaking 100, because there is no gearbox, so the top speed performance is very poor.

Now, what should Golden Sun’s first electric car look like?

"A five-door car, but the appearance must be eye-catching and close to a sports car." Qin Tao only gave a general idea. How to make it specific depends on the designer.

"We are all laymen. If we invite an international car design master to come over and tell him that we are going to build environmentally friendly electric cars, such people will definitely be interested," Qin Tao said.

Ma Ming nodded, and the matter was considered settled. The plane finally arrived in the capital, and a special car took them straight to Princess Tomb. After arriving at Huanglou, after having a cup of tea, the meeting was held.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "This trip to Wasteland Village left a deep impression on me." Wu Shengli said to the crowd: "Unknowingly, we have already led the entire era.

Technology, we have electromagnetic ejection and electromagnetic arresting technology, which perform very well and are one generation ahead of those used on American aircraft carriers. And now, our scientific researchers are still continuing to work hard. In the field of electromagnetic guns, we are still

To make more outstanding achievements, this time is the demonstration meeting of our electromagnetic gun. If it passes this time, the Navy will also allocate funds to support the research and development of our electromagnetic gun, and we will no longer let our R&D institutions always do it on their own.

Raise funds.”

"I think the first question that needs to be considered is what are the advantages of electromagnetic guns, what improvements are there compared to our existing artillery, and whether it is time to use electromagnetic guns to replace chemical cannons. After all, this is not the same as electromagnetic catapults.

There is also a difference in electromagnetic interference. In our navy's equipment, the role of naval guns has been greatly reduced." A leader said.
