While Cangqiong Car was waiting for the traffic light, a Porsche next to it opened its window.
A beautiful woman exposed half of her head and asked curiously: "What kind of car is this? Why doesn't it have a steering wheel?"
A handsome boy next to the female driver said: "Are you kidding me? How can there be no steering wheel?"
The female driver deliberately gave up half of her body so that the handsome boy could see the cab of the Cangqiong car.
The boy was really taken aback when he saw it.
As expected, this car does not have a steering wheel.
Because it is a test vehicle.
So the entire car's appearance is covered with a layer of mosaic.
It's hard to see the car logo.
But the perfect streamlines of Cangqiong Automobile still make everyone think that this must be a high-quality luxury car.
"Handsome guy, what kind of car is this? It looks awesome!"
Tester Xiao Zhang grinned and did not answer the question.
As a qualified tester, Xiao Zhang certainly knows what can and cannot be said.
The car is still in testing and has not been officially launched for sale or officially unveiled.
Of course it cannot be said or spoken.
But Xiao Zhang's kind smile was seen as a provocation by the Porsche driver.
This Porsche Cayenne is the latest gasoline-electric hybrid version.
It is also an important attempt for Porsche in the field of new energy vehicles.
To put it nicely, Porsche is responding to the Paris Climate Agreement and related European regulations, so it has built a new energy vehicle that is a hybrid of gasoline and electricity.
To put it bluntly, it is actually just a gasoline truck plus a battery.
The reason why many people in the Yangtze River Delta area buy gasoline-electric hybrids.
It’s not that they really want to save those few gas dollars, or they are sincerely protecting the environment.
It's the car's license plate number.
Especially in the Shanghai area, due to the explosive increase in population, the number of cars has also increased rapidly in recent years.
Therefore, the local government adopted a number restriction strategy.
It is very difficult to obtain a license for a fuel vehicle, but the green license for new energy vehicles will have better results.
Therefore, in order to cater to the needs of users, automobile manufacturers added a lithium battery to fuel vehicles, turning them into new energy vehicles.
soon.
The red light turned to green.
The Porsche driver, who thought Xiao Zhang was provoking him, immediately stepped on the accelerator.
The advantage of adding a battery to the Porsche Cayenne is that it starts very quickly.
And because the driver grabbed time, he quickly rushed to the front.
This is a serious provocation.
Xiao Zhang definitely cannot stand this kind of behavior.
Although the steering wheel has been retracted, the car has entered autonomous driving mode.
But who says that this driving mode cannot overtake?
Xiao Zhang shouted two words directly.
"Super him!"
At this time, the advantages of the Jinghong 2 chip are revealed.
If it is other vehicle systems.
Still don’t know what the master means when he calls these two words?
There won't even be any reaction at all.
But the Jing Hong 2 chip is different.
The car-machine system of Cangqiong Auto reacts instantly.
Under the premise of ensuring safety, the speed suddenly increased and instantly surpassed the Porsche.
This is done almost instantly.
The female driver of the Porsche looked stunned.
She said in disbelief: "What kind of car is this mosaic car? Why is it so fast!"
The hybrid version of the Cayenne can accelerate from 100 meters to 100 meters in less than 5 seconds.
And this Mosaic car fell behind first and then overtook the Cayenne in an instant.
So its acceleration from 100 meters to 100 meters may be within three seconds.
What kind of car can accelerate from 100 meters to 100 meters in less than three seconds?
The handsome man is also going to use his Zemeng wearable device to take pictures of the appearance of this car, and then ask his friends in the circle what kind of car it is.
But by the time he reacted, Cangqiong Car had no butt shadow.
At this time, he thought that there was a driving recorder in the car.
The man quickly imported the video from the driving recorder into Zemeng's device.
Then he took a screenshot of the picture of Cangqiong Car, and then posted it in his group of car friends and asked:
"Can you guys help me find out what kind of car this is? There is no steering wheel in the cab, it seems to be driving automatically, and the speed increase is extremely abnormal. My initial estimate is that it should be within three seconds."
After the pictures of Cangqiong Car were released.
The group of riders suddenly became lively.
But everyone said they didn't know.
"This car is covered in mosaic, which blocks the main measured features. It must be a car company testing a new car."
"Judging from the picture you just sent, there seems to be no exhaust pipe at the rear of the car, so it must be a tram."
"The electric car actually adopts a completely autonomous driving mode? Is it a Tesla?"
"But recently we haven't heard that Tesla is going to launch a new car?"
The entire group of riders is a lake of mud.
The man still refused to give up and posted pictures of the Cangqiong car on forums and post bars to solicit clues.
After all, the feeling of being left behind by others is not pleasant at all.
Testing of Cangqiong Auto is still in progress.
It has been tested on the road conditions in towns and villages with large population and complex traffic conditions in the suburbs.
We have also tested road conditions in urban centers with a lot of traffic lights, many overpasses, and complicated traffic guidance lines.
We have also tested some climbing and fording roads, and are even building a county-level road full of shell craters.
Cangqiong Automobile was very perfect and completed the test in a self-driving manner.
His driving skills are not inferior to those of veteran drivers who have driven hundreds of kilometers for 20 years.
But there is one thing that makes Chen Xiao not very satisfied.
That's when the Sky Car passed through the shell crater road conditions.
A very important advantage of Cangqiong Car is that it adopts a liftable suspension air suspension.
The biggest advantage of this kind of air suspension is that when driving on bumpy roads, it can use complex calculations to keep the suspension stationary and the wheels to swing up and down, thereby offsetting the bumps on the road, so that the passengers sitting in the car will only feel a slight
bumps, you can't even feel any bumps.
But when driving on the Cannonball Road today, Chen Xiao was a little dissatisfied with the traffic conditions.
Although the overall bumpiness is much better than the cars currently on the market.
But it did not reach Chen Xiao’s original setting.
It is an industrial product with very high technical requirements to absorb bumps on the ground.
This technology involves three very important technological means.
One is that the detector detects the road conditions on the ground ahead in time and transmits the signal to the vehicle system in a timely manner.
Changtian Technology Hardware Department has completed the design and installation of this detection device, and there is absolutely no problem in terms of quality.
The second one is to perform complex calculations on the road conditions, and promptly inform the vehicle-machine system of the feedback results after the calculation, so that the vehicle-machine system can react on the chassis.
Cangqiong Car is equipped with Jinghong 2 chip, so the response speed must be very fast.
Through the neuron computing group and the super powerful carbon crystal chip, the design system can feed data back to the locomotive system within 1/10000 of a second.
Data collection, analysis and transmission are all completed.
The final result was still unsatisfactory.
The problem lies in the chassis.
The chassis is one of the core integrated products of the car.
Different cars have different chassis, which require very detailed debugging.
This is actually a feedback from the accumulation of technology in the automobile industry.
Why do a large number of European car companies make very good chassis?
This is the accumulation of technology over decades or hundreds of years.
Changtian Technology does not have this technology.
In the domestic automobile industry, there are not many scientific research talents with such technology.
So Chen Xiao asked Changtian Technology to choose the simplest method.
That is spending a lot of money to purchase European chassis technology.
This time, the company that is connecting with Changtian Technology is Saab Automobile from Sweden.
Saab is a long-established automobile company in Northern Europe.
It has a history of nearly a hundred years.
It also owns a number of classic models, and of course it also has very good automobile production technology, including automobile chassis technology.
It’s just that Saab Automobile did not perform well in the early years and was successively acquired by General Motors and Spyker of the Netherlands.
After the change of ownership, Saab's operating conditions were also very poor.
Soon it ran into operational difficulties again.
It is precisely because of this that Saab chose to sell some of its technologies.
Changtian Technology also has the opportunity to purchase Saab's automotive chassis technology.
But it's obvious.
Saab is just like those old European companies.
I am very proud inside.
They never take Xia Guo's technology companies seriously.
So even after the chassis technology was sold to Changtian Technology.
This is not Saab's most advanced automotive chassis technology.
What Changtian Technology needs is Saab's most advanced chassis technology, and on this basis, it will carry out in-depth design and optimization to make it more intelligent.
After understanding this, Chen Xiao decided not to express it and planned to talk about it later during the meeting.
After the test is completed.
Everyone returned to Cangqiong Automobile Factory in Ning City.
Test vehicles will continue to be tested on the production line.
This time the test only tests the overall durability of the car and the performance of the battery.
The Cangqiong car will travel at a speed of up to 300 kilometers per hour.
On the one hand, it is to test whether the battery can run more than 1,000 kilometers.
On the other hand, it is necessary to run 1 million kilometers at top speed to test the overall performance of the car.
But Chen Xiao just summoned the senior executives of Cangqiong Automobile and Xinhe Energy Company for a meeting in the conference room.
Chen Xiao got straight to the point and said: "I am very satisfied with today's test. Both the car's driving and rideability are very good. The autonomous driving function is the first in the world and the first time in human history!"
Chen Xiao smiled and said to everyone: "I believe that after our car is launched, any car on the market, whether it is a fuel vehicle or a new energy vehicle, will definitely not be our opponent!"
These words made Ma Guotao and others' faces turn red with excitement.
Especially Ma Guotao.
He stayed dormant in the automobile factory for nearly 10 years.
Now we can finally see hope.
"but."
As soon as Chen Xiao said "but," Gao Miao secretly thought it was not good.
Because, but what I said before is all nonsense.
Chen Xiao said: "But I am not very satisfied with the car's chassis and shock-absorbing technology. Our car's shock-absorbing technology can only be said to be quite satisfactory. It can indeed be sold in the market, but it does not achieve what I want most."
level.”
"Is this Saab's most advanced automotive chassis technology?"
Gao Miao has the right to speak on this point.
Because when purchasing Saab's chassis intellectual property technology, Gao Miao signed it.
"It is Saab's relatively advanced automobile chassis technology. Everyone knows that Saab's operating conditions have not been very good in recent years. However, because its chassis is relatively popular and its technical foundation is relatively strong, it has been competing with many car companies around the world.
They are all cooperating.”
"Their automotive chassis R&D team is still in a very healthy state."
"Although the domestic automobile industry started 20 years ago, the cultivation of truly innovative and scientific research-based talents only happened in the past few years."
"So currently it is quite difficult to rely on our Xia Guo team to develop a relatively high-quality chassis in a short period of time."
Gao Miao said something that touched Chen Xiao's heart.
That is, Saab's current automobile chassis R&D technical team is still relatively healthy and still maintains its R&D status.
Chen Xiao believes that even if Changtian Technology buys Saab's most advanced automotive chassis technology.
It may not satisfy Chen Xiao and fail to meet Chen Xiao's requirements.
But if the entire scientific research team of the other party is brought over, combined with the current financial strength and scientific research level of Changxing Technology.
It should be possible for the European team and the Xia Guo team to work together to develop a chassis that satisfies Chen Xiao.
One is to expand Changtian Technology’s technological front and drive the entire Xia Kingdom’s technological industry chain.
After all, automobile technology is more complex than mobile phones and computers, involves more industrial chains, and is an industrial product industry that requires a more intensive employment population.
It can help Xia's economy and technology reach a higher level.
The second purpose is to completely defeat the key points of Europe's old industrial strategy.
Therefore, Chen Xiao will have to let his secondary industry enter Europe sooner or later.
Backdooring European car companies and entering Europe under the name of European car companies is the best option.
If Changtian Technology's Cangqiong Automobile is officially launched and the strategic ambitions of Changtian Technology are exposed, it may be more difficult and expensive to acquire European automobile companies at that time.
On the contrary, it would be much easier to acquire an established European automobile company at this time.
Chen Xiao asked Gao Miao: "Did you know anything about this company when you were discussing business with Saab? What is their current market value?"
Gao Miao has certainly done enough homework in this regard.
She said to Chen Xiao with great accomplishment: "Saab's current total market value may be around 500 million meters."
"But the specific market price may be at a premium, because he has a lot of automotive patented technologies that are quite valuable, and they can be used immediately."
Chen Xiao nodded, the premium will definitely be a premium.
But Changtian Technology is not short of money.
Chen Xiao said to Gao Miao: "The chassis of Cangqiong Car still needs to be modified, and other tests will continue."
"Mr. Gao, you will lead a team to Europe and acquire Saab."
