Chapter 653: Stay up tonight.
Tesla promoted its cars as new energy vehicles on the internet. In the current global auto industry, Tesla is undoubtedly the brightest star, but now China has made a strong surge with its new energy vehicle. Judging from the output of various user selfie videos, the Shi Lei car has become the real new-energy car on the Internet...
Its human-computer interaction function has reached the limit and there is no way to compete with it, the general manager Martin and the accompanying group of engineers have not even found a solution for this aspect of battery which const.i.tutes the most important innovation in the electric energy and is the essential part of this car, and to speak about the energy sector, the Internet has a very large margin of progression on this subject.
Since the Shi Lei car is better than Tesla in this regard, it is enough to learn from it and introduce similar functions, but the energy advantage alone is almost zero in front of the other advantages.
Tesla has already become the first in the world, and these men can"t believe the eight metal rungs in front of them can surpa.s.s them no matter what.
As for the data leaked by the Shi Lei car?
Let"s not talk about the battery content first, how to explain the price of a standard version is 240,000 Yuan?
This amount of money is just enough to buy a battery here at Tesla.
The general manager Martin and the others suspected that the Chinese Media had confused the data from the concept version of Shi Lei published by Huge Industrial Monster with the data from the ma.s.s-produced hairstyle.
After all, China is a country far behind when it comes to automotive energy. Now he has reached the stars and the moon with a thundering car, and the Chinese media is understandably a bit proud, with some exaggeration, to announce this good news to the world.
With chaotic thoughts, the general manager Martin stood in front of the workbench observing the scene, he watched the plasma battery removed from the protective case.
"The cooling system is ready, you can start."
"Let"s the startup."
Through the cooling system, the special coolant is lowered to the lower temperature, freezing point, and then sprayed on the high-speed precision alloy blade through the pipeline under control, the cutting temperature should not exceed fifty degrees.
As the blade slowly approached the silver-white alloy protective casing, the engineers present couldn"t help but cover their ears. The cutting sound was too harsh, but that"s okay, just bears it for a few seconds.
Two minutes have pa.s.sed...
The fast-spinning blade just rubbed off a layer, and the alloy casing used to protect the plasma battery still didn"t show any signs of breaking. There were no sparks, but the sound of the blades rubbing grew louder, making the scalp tingle.
After the engineer controlling the precision cold-cutting equipment had stopped the equipment, he almost stared: "How is that possible? Our cutting equipment can"t cut this thing..."
The general manager Martin and the group of engineers rushed over and looked at the sample under the air conditioner. On the plasma battery protective sh.e.l.l, only a shallow layer of cut mark remained. The general manager Martin doesn"t know much about metallic materials, but there are people who know the products in the accompanying group of engineers.
"BOSS, this shows that the strength of the protective case metal exceeds that of our cutting tool, so there is only one other way."
"I don"t understand, this casing is so strong, but there is no trace of welding on it, I don"t know how they encapsulated the battery inside?" the general manager Martin was stunned and an unpleasant feeling rose in his heart.
Ultra-high strength alloys represent an ultra-high level of metallurgical technology, especially if for a sh.e.l.l they will be so strong, so how for a plasma battery they contain can they be ordinary?
"So what equipment can I use to a cold cut?"
"This..."
The engineers made a mistake. They had to use cold cutting to cut it, and they had to be careful not to hurt the battery inside. Because the ordinary cutting will produce a lot of heat, even more, it is very likely to cause the battery to spontaneously burn.
The solution was finally thought out, but the cost was a bit high.
Engineers eventually moved the plasma battery to a DMG five-axis machining center and used a super-hard diamond cutting head to cut it bit by bit. Coolant sprayed continuously, and each time the knife fell, only pieces of metal thinner than paper lifted off the protective alloy sh.e.l.l. From morning to afternoon, the bottom of the protective sh.e.l.l was finally shaved off with a layer.
During the cutting process, the engineers were again shocked. The metal shavings that were cut had no curling, and even if bent by hand, they quickly returned to their original shape.
The CEO, the general manager Martin, waited nervously for the engineer to remove the plasma battery and after waiting another half hour the engineers found a clue and slowly pulled the plasma battery out with tools.
"Oh my G.o.d!"
The engineer who first saw the true face of the plasma battery couldn"t help but exclaim.
"It turned out to be transparent, with liquid energy material stored in it?"
"What, a liquid material?"
The general manager Martin rushed forward in a panic, picked up the transparent battery that the engineer had just taken out, and looked at the highlight source and could clearly see the inside of the transparent material, it was filled with liquid that shone like lightning. He had shaken it gently, and this liquid immediately burst into a mysterious blue light.
At that moment, everyone on the stage couldn"t breathe. It overturned their understanding of energetic materials, and they found no theoretical technology related to it in their minds. The rhythm was completely off, and the liquid drums gave them no clues. In the end, the general manager Martin decided to test how much energy the plasma battery could store.
To test the amount of battery energy, the energy inside it must first be released. Their battery energy test equipment is the most advanced and the engineers have put the plasma cells back in series and wired them to the equipment. Tesla"s equipment uses arc discharge to consume energy.
As a result... the light of an enormous electric arc crossing the air of the laboratory shone all night long.
......
At Tesla headquarters, high-level technical executives led by the general manager Martin stayed up all night. Their mentality changed from surprise to fear they never had when the battery charge finally runs out. It is not they are done with Tesla, but the whole new energy industry in the United States and Europe will be finished together, and even the field of traditional fuel vehicles will also fluctuate violently.
The general manager Martin recalled a market study they did decades ago when they had just formed a team to start research and development on new energy vehicle technology. The study asked people; if a pure electric car has advantages of energy-saving and environmental protection, but the charging time takes several hours and more, would you buy it?
Ninety-five percent of respondents chose NO.
Now, After the general manager, Martin and his team have worked hard for several years. Finally, in this questionnaire, the number of people who chose NO was reduced to 70%.
If they are going to use the Shi Lei car as a model and tell the questioned people the real data of the Shi Lei car, and then re-examine the answers, how many people will choose NO?
Martin couldn"t imagine it, because even he couldn"t help but want to own a Shi Lei car.
In addition to being used to drive new energy vehicles, in what areas can this plasma battery play a role?
With endless possibilities, this will lead to untold energy shifts.
The general manager Martin"s body shook, and in the end, he opted to pick up a rather old-fashioned push-b.u.t.ton telephone. There was no company LOGO on the phone, and the call was connected a few seconds later, and an emotionless voice came from inside.
"h.e.l.lo, this is the White House office; please explain why you are calling..."
