Technology company, I will become the light of China!

The imperial capital of the Dragon Kingdom.

Bird's Nest Stadium.

After introducing intelligence and battery life, Chen Xing pressed the remote control again and said, "After talking about intelligence and battery life, let's talk about sound insulation."

"The Wing Loong flying car uses fully wrapped sandwich sound insulation materials, and the cost of sound insulation alone is as high as 10 yuan."

"10 yuan?"

"Oh my god, it's so expensive?"

"I feel like the Pterosaur is not cheap. It won't cost several million per unit, right?"

"Millions? I'd guess tens of millions!"

"It's the world's first flying car. It's not impossible that the first batch will be sold for over 10 million yuan. After all, we have to take into account the research and development costs."

The audience was talking about it and had begun to estimate the selling price of the Wing Loong flying car.

Not only the audience, but also the business CEOs who came to the Bird's Nest were also calculating the selling price, their minds were working rapidly.

When BYD CEO Wang Fu heard that 10 yuan was spent on sound insulation, he immediately frowned and calculated in his mind: "10 yuan for sound insulation, and a 300-degree Thor battery will cost at least 100 million yuan. Add to that the L6 intelligent driving and R&D costs, and it seems that the actual selling price will be more than 700 million yuan."

The selling price of 700 million was estimated by Wang Fu based on the corporate culture of Longxing Group.

After all, Chen Xing has always emphasized that technology is not high and mighty, but serves the people. However, even though Wang Fu knew that Chen Xing would try to set the price as low as possible, he still estimated the selling price to be more than 700 million.

It's not just Wang Fu, other car company CEOs are also predicting selling prices.

Chen Xing didn't have the ability to read minds, so he naturally didn't know what they were thinking. He continued to introduce the Pterosaur flying car and said, "Compared to the first three major technologies, my favorite and most satisfying point is its stability."

At this point, Chen Xing pressed the remote control in his hand, and a comparison picture of the rotor structure appeared on the screen of the Bird's Nest.

"The reason why the pterosaur can fly at high altitudes as if it were flat is mainly due to its rotor structure. As you can see, the rotor blades of ordinary helicopters and drones are flat, and although they are slightly tilted, it is not obvious."

"This is because the tilted blades pose a huge challenge to stability."

"Our Wing Loong flying car uses a fully tilting rotor structure. This design allows the flying car to hover and take off and land like a helicopter in vertical take-off and landing mode, and fly at high speed like a fixed-wing aircraft in high-speed cruising mode, taking into account both flexibility and speed requirements."

"But the problem is that the full tilt rotor structure will destroy the flight balance and stability, which becomes a difficult problem that must be solved."

The words fell.

Chen Xing pressed the remote control again.

On the screen behind him, a schematic diagram of the "Tumbler Automatic Adjustment Module" and a simple function introduction appeared.

"In order to solve the problem of stability, we installed eight balance sensors on the chassis of the flying car. As long as there is any deviation, the main chip of the car will immediately identify it and make micro adjustments. This technology is very tricky."

"why would you say so?"

“Because the amount of data is just too huge.”

"The main chip is constantly adjusting the balance of the vehicle body, which is a great test of the chip performance and the balance adjustment ability of the vehicle control system."

"but!"

Chen Xing emphasized his tone and announced: "We did it. We used AI technology, cloud computing technology and high-speed networks to make up for the shortcomings of vehicle-mounted chips."

"My goodness, can the group really do whatever it wants with its strong technical background?"

"Ai again, is this really a big trend?"

“Cloud computing will not directly replace CPU and GPU computing power in the future, right?”

"Far ahead!"

“We are really far ahead!”

The audience exclaimed again that the Ai technology, cloud computing and high-speed network that Chen Xing talked about were all mentioned in the previous press conference.

What is this called?
heritage!

The reason why a technology group is called a group is not how much money it has, but how many cutting-edge technologies it has accumulated.

For example, Apple was once an absolute giant technology company, but it is also notorious for squeezing toothpaste.

A little bit every year, a little bit every year, but just that little bit can bring a large number of new users to Apple phones every year.

New technological products do not emerge without reason, but require a long period of sedimentation.

Like the history of the development of smartphones, at the beginning they could only make calls and send text messages, but gradually, manufacturers discovered that they could add photo taking and Internet access functions, bit by bit, and gradually improved them, leading to the current smartphones.

"I believe everyone has a clear understanding of the Wing Loong flying car. Now let's talk about safety."

Chen Xing paused, pressed the remote control and said, "Our Wing Loong flying car uses a flexible steel composite material. Although the body strength is only 1600 MPa, its safety factor has obtained the national G+ certification."

"Maybe someone will ask at this time, did you secretly put money in?"

“I did stuff the money in.”

"???"

"???"

"???"

The barrage in the live broadcast room was once again full of question marks.

Duan Yongping, who was sitting in the front row, looked at Ren Guofei and Lei Jun with surprise and said, "No way, you guys are so blatant in giving money to get insider ratings?"

“It’s a bit too arrogant indeed.”

Luo Hao nodded.

"The person in charge of security assessment must be sweating profusely now, right?" said Gao Yongming, CEO of Loongson International, with a smile.

Paying for safety ratings has become an unspoken rule in the industry.

Since it is an unspoken rule, it must not be spoken out. If Chen Xing exposes it like this, this path might be cut off.

Ren Guofei and Lei Jun looked at each other and did not respond to them.

As the discussion in the Bird's Nest was raging, Chen Xing on the stage suddenly changed the subject and said, "This money-giving is not what everyone thinks, but paying the testing fee."

"..."

silence.

silence.

I thought it was an inside job.

did not expect!
Do you rely on hard power?
"Boss Chen understands public opinion and comments. Just now, how many people's hearts were touched by that?"

"I thought Mr. Chen really gave me money, but I didn't expect it was for testing fees."

"It's plugged in, but not completely!"

"Mr. Chen, please take it easy. My dad is in charge of vehicle safety testing. I almost thought my dad was going to go in!"

"Hahaha!"

Listening to the discussion at the scene, Chen Xing pressed his hand, signaling for silence, and said, "I believe everyone wants to know how the Wing Loong flying car, which has a body strength of only 1600 MPa, received a G+ rating. Let's talk about it in detail."

He pressed the remote control, switched the screen, and continued to explain: "The Pterosaur flying car is different from ordinary cars. After all, it flies in the sky. If a rear-end collision or mechanical failure occurs, causing it to fall from a high altitude, it will be useless even if the car body strength is 16000 MPa, because even if the car is intact, the people inside will be injured or killed by the shock wave."

Why do luxury cars break into pieces when they are hit?
Is the manufacturer cutting corners?
Actually, it is not like that. People are trying to reduce the probability of shock injuries regardless of the cost.

This is a bit like when you wear armor, ordinary swords, guns, sticks and clubs are of no use to you, but if the enemy uses a hammer, your armor cannot defend against blunt weapons.

After one blow, it may seem that the armor is not broken, but your internal organs are shattered.

In order to protect the car owners as much as possible, luxury cars often use carbon fiber materials, reduce the strength of the car body, and adopt self-destruction methods to reduce the damage caused by shock waves.

This is also why Volvo has the "wheel-losing life-saving" design.

"So, our main focus is to prevent the vehicle from falling and the escape of the people inside the vehicle, rather than pursuing the strength of the vehicle body."

After Chen Xing pointed out the key point, he continued, "There is a red emergency button protected by a transparent protective box above the passenger seat of the vehicle."

"Once there is a mechanical failure or other emergency, we can just press it, and the gunpowder packs on the top of the cabin and in the seats will be instantly activated, destroying the area above the car and preventing the rotor from injuring the passengers." "After the upper area is blown up, the gunpowder packs on the escape seat will also be activated, allowing us to fly out of the car from the top area, and the parachute on the back of the seat will open within two seconds."

While Chen Xing was speaking, a demonstration video appeared on the screen behind him.

With this safety mechanism, many viewers who were worried about safety nodded and gave praise.

"Clap clap-"

Applause slowly broke out.

A good technological product not only needs to provide a comfortable experience, but also take into account the safety of product use.

For vehicles like cars, safety is more important than performance.

“Full-range intelligent driving can not only avoid car accidents, but also provide an escape mechanism in case of breakdowns. This is really far ahead!”

"I have to say, the safety aspect is indeed good. Mr. Chen is awesome!"

"I'm going to use my dad's gold coins to buy one!"

"Flying is worse than running on the ground. If the price does not exceed 900 million, I can still buy one for fun after gritting my teeth."

Listening to the discussions around him, Ren Guofei looked at Duan Yongping and asked, "How about it? Are you interested in getting one?"

"I'm interested, of course I'm interested, but I have a question, that is, do I need to apply for a route to fly a flying car?"

Duan Yongping asked back.

He has a helicopter.

But after buying it, he regretted it.

Every time a helicopter flies, it needs to report and apply to the local air traffic control department. Even if the route is approved quickly, if something unexpected happens, there will be no time for approval.

Therefore, many wealthy people travel by car, as helicopter travel is too cumbersome.

"Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen do not need to apply, as the pilot program has already been launched. Other cities will follow suit in the future," Ren Guofei responded with a smile.

"Yes."

Lei Jun nodded and continued: "It won't be long before flying cars can be driven as they please in China."

“Then we must set up a stage.”

“Indeed, it is convenient for traveling.”

"With a range of more than 2,000 kilometers, if it can reach full speed, it will be much more convenient to travel to nearby provinces."

Duan Yongping, Jack Ma, and Huang Renxun all expressed their opinions.

In the past, when they went on business trips to nearby provinces, such as from eastern Guangdong to southern Hunan, if they wanted to depart immediately, they could only choose to travel by car.

Because life is not a script. Sometimes emergencies occur and you need to rush to other provinces. You don’t have time to wait for the flight and often have to step on the accelerator.

……

After Chen Xing finished explaining the Wing Loong flying car, he paused for half a second and then said, "That's all I can say today. The details and design need to be explored by everyone."

"Next, announce the price."

He pressed the remote control in his hand, and the picture on the large screen behind him switched to show parameter charts of two Wing Loong flying cars, with three question marks in the price column.

"Oh, right."

"We have two types of Wing Loong flying cars."

"The regular version is what I just introduced. The premium version is a little more expensive, but it is a brand new computing model. Because it involves subsequent content, I will keep it a secret for now."

New computing power model?
When these five words were spoken, Masick, Huang Renxun, Kuker and other corporate leaders were a little overwhelmed for a moment. It seemed that the rumors were true and Chen Xing really had a chip to release.

4nm?

3nm?

Or 2 nanometers?

Today, the chip nanotechnology in the world remains at the 5-nanometer process. Once an attempt is made to break through, the quantum tunneling effect will appear in silicon materials.

Those who often develop chips know that the quantum tunneling effect is similar to an accidental touch on the keyboard. You originally wanted the letter A, but you pressed an S instead. The result is naturally confusion in the calculation.

"You may as well guess the price. You can open any official blog of Longxing Group, Kunpeng Company and Rice Company now, click on the top link and enter the guessing page. The 5000 users with the closest price will receive a large discount coupon, which is definitely not the 5 yuan kind."

Chen Xing teased humorously.

One of Lamborghini's offline stores once did something cool: giving users a 5-yuan discount coupon.

A 300 million yuan car with a 5 yuan discount coupon.

As soon as this incident was exposed, it caused an uproar on the Internet.

A group of netizens said that with this 5 yuan discount coupon, they are closer to their goal of buying a Lamborghini in full.

"Hahaha!"

"Mr. Chen is quite humorous!"

"It's not a 5 yuan discount coupon, and it's not a 10 yuan discount coupon. I hope Mr. Chen can be more generous and give me a million yuan discount coupon!"

"Can any good brother tell me how much you paid for this car?"

"I guess 1000 million, because my father bought his helicopter for 1200 million. According to Mr. Chen's habit, he would never set a high price. It must be around 1000 million."

"Then I choose 999 million."

“I wrote 899 million!”

In just a blink of an eye, 14 people have participated in the guessing game, and the number is still rising.

30 million.

70 million.

100 million.

When the number of participants reached one million, Chen Xing spoke again: "The audience is very enthusiastic. It hasn't even been three minutes and the number of participants has reached one million. So, we will wait for two more minutes, then stop the guessing and announce the official guide prices of these two Wing Loong flying cars."

"Of course."

"This is the guide price for Dragon Country. As for the prices in other countries, they need to be adjusted based on tariffs and transportation costs."

Exports will face tariffs, which is unavoidable.

obviously.

Foreign audiences all understand this unspoken rule.

After waiting for two minutes, when the guessing activity ended, Chen Xing did not even turn around and pressed the remote control in his hand to announce the price.

Pterosaur flying car, regular version: 159 million Dragon Country coins.

Wing Loong Flying Car, Premium Edition: 199 million Dragon Country Currency.

"Wow—"

When the price of Longguo appeared, the Bird's Nest was in an uproar again.

The princes of Crown Prince Abdul Aziz's family sitting in the front row had gleaming eyes, as if in the next second they would take out their bank cards with only cold numbers on them to place an order.

Some are happy and some are sad. When the helicopter manufacturer saw the price, he suddenly felt dizzy and as if the sky was falling.

199?
What the hell are they doing!
Take the common medical rescue helicopter as an example. It is usually a modified Bell 407 GX, and one costs 1000 million!
Other slightly inferior helicopters generally cost more than 300 million.

Now you have 199 million and you don’t even need to apply for a flight route. What the hell is this?

At this time, the helicopter manufacturer thought of a sentence: The one who defeats you may not be someone in the same industry, but may be someone from another industry!
