Chapter 371 Just give them some
First, the battery must have enough power and fast charging speed. It is guaranteed that the car can travel more than a thousand kilometers or even longer distances after a single charge.
Second, there must be stable enough quality control so that various problems will not arise easily.
Third, it must have basic autonomous driving capabilities, such as cruise control, automatic parking, etc., which must be at least better than other models in the same price range.
Fourth, charging must be convenient enough. In addition to the charging piles installed at home, there must also be public charging piles at regular intervals.
…
After a few days, Ning Chen has completed the design work of three different models and planned the future development direction of Xingchen Technology’s automotive business.
After completing these tasks, Ning Chen came to the headquarters of Xingchen Technology Company, ready to have a good talk with Lu Minghao about this matter.
Learning that Ning Chen was waiting for him in his office, Lu Minghao quickly put aside the work at hand and came to the office.
“Mr. Ning, you are here.”
Ning Chen doesn't come to the Star Technology headquarters very often. If he does, it's usually because of something big.
Especially Ning Chen’s attitude today, it seemed like he had some big things to explain to himself.
Sure enough, after chatting with Lu Minghao for a few words, Ning Chen started talking about the controllable nuclear fusion project.
"Manager Lu, I have sorted out the follow-up plans for the controllable nuclear fusion project. From now on, we will continue to research and develop in this direction. It is expected that in another five to ten years, we will have the hope of achieving major results. A breakthrough..."
After receiving the plan sent by Ning Chen, Lu Minghao immediately checked it.
It has to be said that Ning Chen is really very advanced and rigorous in the design of scientific research plans. Although Lu Minghao cannot immediately understand all of Ning Chen's design ideas, he has already experienced some of Ning Chen's design wonders.
Of course, Lu Minghao is not a purely technical person. Since starting the Xingchen OS system with Ning Chen, Lu Minghao has gradually shifted the focus of his work to the direction of management.
Didn't rush to think about all the technical details, Lu Minghao first looked at the capital consumption of the project.
It doesn’t matter at this point. The capital consumption of follow-up projects of controllable nuclear fusion turns out to be another huge figure.
"Mr. Ning, this capital consumption is a bit too big for us. It can be tolerated in the short term. If this continues for a long time, even if the entire company is hollowed out, we may not be able to continue the project... …”
Lu Minghao had a very good understanding of Xingchen Technology's company situation and quickly came to such an analysis conclusion.
Ning Chen was naturally aware of this situation. He did not rush to refute Lu Minghao's point of view, but smiled and said:
"Don't worry, Manager Lu, this is just what I came to see today. That's your first thing. Now I'll tell you the second thing..."
As he said that, Ning Chen took out the new energy vehicle he had designed in the past few days and showed it to Lu Minghao. .
Seeing the three cars designed by Ning Chen, Lu Minghao immediately guessed what Ning Chen was thinking.
Speaking of which, Lu Minghao was not surprised that Ning Chen was able to come up with a very complete design plan at once. For Lu Minghao, this was already a kind of "aesthetic fatigue".
After briefly browsing through Ning Chen’s design plans, Lu Minghao became excited.
“Mr. Ning, judging from the current situation of our Xingchen Technology, expanding our business in the field of new energy vehicles is indeed a very suitable choice. As long as we are willing, we are fully capable of making the best products in the world. New energy vehicles..."
After confirming Ning Chen's ideas, Lu Minghao also raised some of his concerns.
"Mr. Ning, there is still a certain transition period from the beginning of the project to profitability. If the project profitability cycle is too long, not only will it not be able to help the controllable nuclear fusion project, but it will also become a liability for the company. A burden..."
Lu Minghao's concerns are not unreasonable. Although Xingchen Technology is already one of the world's top technology companies, after all, new energy vehicles are a brand-new business. It is difficult to occupy a part of the market from the beginning. It is more likely to take many years. Only by developing can we become mature bit by bit.
However, Ning Chen did not seem to be worried about these problems, and said confidently:
"Manager Lu, this is not a problem. In the development of Xingchen Technology for so many years, what we have experienced So many of our projects are all started from scratch. We can make mobile phone systems and computer systems that are better than Android and Windows systems, and better than Intel and Fruit Company without any foundation. Chip. There is nothing that our Star Technology cannot do..."
Under Ning Chen's example, Lu Minghao gradually became as confident as Ning Chen, believing that they could indeed quickly occupy part of the world automobile market.
"Mr. Ning, do you have any ideas about car brands and trademarks?"
After hearing Lu Minghao's question, Ning Chen thought for a moment and said:
"Just call it 'Xingchen Auto'. Anyway, they are all products developed by our Xingchen Technology. There is no need to have so many different names. About I also have a rough idea of the car's logo. I will make the design of the logo carefully when I go back."
Since Ning Chen has completed the design of the car on his own, Ning Chen won't mind. , I spent a little more time to solve the car logo problem by the way.
After talking to Lu Minghao about everything today, Ning Chen was about to go back to deal with the car logo design.
At this moment, Lu Minghao suddenly said:
"By the way, Mr. Ning, NASA previously wanted us to provide some lunar soil samples for them to study. Do you think... how should this matter be handled?"
Hearing Lu Minghao's words, Ning Chen couldn't help but He raised his eyebrows.
According to normal thinking, NASA has cooperated with the FBI in planning the "abandoned satellite" incident.
Although that incident did not cause substantial harm to Ning Chen in the end, and was even just a part of Ning Chen's plan, it was indeed intended to threaten Ning Chen's life safety.
Of course, Ning Chen knew in his heart that there was no grudge between NASA and himself, and he was doing all this just to obey the orders of the FBI.
No matter what Ning Chen thinks about NASA, at least on the surface, there is no need for Ning Chen to break the relationship between the two families.
Thinking of this, Ning Chen said to Lu Minghao:
"Then give them 10g of lunar soil samples. But these 10g of lunar soil samples must be screened by me personally."
Ning Chen naturally could not give NASA a particularly important part of the soil sample to let them discover a material with high research and development value like "new titanium alloy". Therefore, Ning Chen needed to screen out some samples with little research and development value among these lunar soil samples before he could safely send them out.
After hearing Ning Chen's words, Lu Minghao suddenly understood what Ning Chen was thinking, and his expression couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, let's wait until you can select these 10g lunar soil samples, and we will send them to NASA."
After chatting with Lu Minghao, Ning Chen followed Lu Minghao Together with Minghao, they came to the laboratory where Xingchen Technology stored lunar soil samples.
Here, there are tens of kilograms of lunar soil samples. If you take away 10g from these soil samples, you will not even find any difference.
Despite this, Ning Chen would not send out lunar soil samples casually. Instead, he used Xiaozhi's information retrieval function to detect these soil samples.
Immediately, Ning Chen pointed to a soil sample and said to Lu Minghao:
“Just select 10g from this soil sample and send it to NASA.”
Lu Minghao was a little confused. Ning Chen was surprised that Ning Chen could complete the screening of soil samples so quickly, but Lu Minghao didn't ask any questions and immediately asked people to extract the lunar soil samples.
"Mr. Ning, these are 10.01g of soil in total."
"Well, it doesn't matter if you give me an extra 0.01g, that's all."
Ning Chen did not forget to confirm the information of these soil samples again. Apart from being able to confirm that these soil samples came from the moon, it was difficult to detect too much valuable information in them.
After completing this work, Ning Chen could finally return home with peace of mind.
Back in his familiar study room, Ning Chen turned on the computer and prepared to design the logo of Xingchen Motors.
This was the first time Ning Chen designed such a non-scientific research plan, which gave Ning Chen the illusion that he was a designer.
Compared to scientific research issues, although the design of car logos seems simple, it is not that easy to design a simple and deeply rooted car logo.
Ning Chen didn't want to think too complicated, so he directly designed the pattern of stars with the theme of "stars", and based on this, he highlighted the theme features of the universe and stars.
After some revision and polishing, Ning Chen was quite satisfied with his design.
"Since it is an artistic design... I don't need to go to Xiaozhi for evaluation." Ning Chenxin said.
Although Xiaozhi is a very powerful artificial intelligence, its abilities do not involve art-related fields. This is also a weakness of artificial intelligence, because art itself does not have rigorous thinking logic.
Ning Chen sent the car logo plan he designed to Lu Minghao for internal discussion within the company to evaluate how well his plan was designed.
When everyone saw the car logo scheme designed by Ning Chen, they all reacted in amazement.
“This plan is very consistent with the theme of ‘stars’. Although it looks very simple, it has a profound sense of the universe. It is an excellent car logo.”
"I didn't expect Mr. Ning to have such profound attainments in art. Geniuses can indeed make great achievements in various fields."
"I really can't think of any other design solutions that can While it is so consistent with the theme, it can also contain an artistic flavor in its simplicity and clarity.”
Although everyone’s reaction may contain a certain amount of flattery, it is the kind of response to Ning Chen’s design. The plan is certain, but it is guaranteed to be true.
With the formal determination of various plans, the "Star Car" project has entered into preparations, and will only be officially made public when the time is right.
On the other hand, Xingchen Technology also donated 10g of lunar soil samples to NASA in accordance with Ning Chen’s previous instructions.
After receiving the lunar soil samples sent by Xingchen Technology, everyone at NASA was a little hard to believe it at first. After all, the relationship between the two families was not good before. Not only did they not have direct contact, they even talked about it behind the scenes. Relationship with family.
Of course, NASA is still very friendly on the surface. NASA has publicly sent congratulatory messages to Xingchen Technology for several previous successful space missions.
Perhaps it is for these reasons that Xingchen Technology can be so generous this time.
However, when they learned that Xingchen Technology only sent them 10g of lunar samples this time, NASA also felt a little disappointed.
“Xingchen Technology went to the moon twice and brought back lunar soil samples weighing tens of kilograms... But they only gave us a pitiful 10g lunar soil sample.”
< br>Some people even think that this donation of lunar soil samples by Xingchen Technology is a "humiliation" for NASA.
Because according to the information released by Xingchen Technology, they have donated several kilograms of lunar soil samples. Even the quantity of soil samples sent to some Xiaguo universities is more than 10g.
But after all, America has not landed on the moon for a long time, and the most recent lunar soil samples are from decades ago. Therefore, NASA actually attaches great importance to the lunar soil samples sent by Xingchen Technology.
"A 10g soil sample is a lot. The lunar soil sample we sent to Xia Guo at that time was only 1g. Didn't they still study some good results? Don't worry about so much and hurry up and analyze these soil samples. Let’s do research...”
From the appearance, this soil sample is indeed different from the Blue Star soil sample, but as to whether it is really a soil sample from the moon, it can only be determined after testing. , we can draw a more precise conclusion.
After receiving the soil samples, NASA first publicly expressed its gratitude to Xia Guo Space Agency and Xingchen Technology on their official social platform, and then began to study these soil samples.
After a few days, they came to some preliminary conclusions.
"Sir, we have not drawn any breakthrough conclusions among these soil samples. Most of the components in this soil sample are not much different from the soil of Blue Star... ”
Upon hearing such a conclusion, NASA officials couldn't help but frown.
"So...these soil samples do not come from the moon at all, but are just some soil samples randomly dug out from the Blue Star?"
