The rainy season is ushering in the Coconut State.
It rains almost every day in Yunshan District. It usually rains at night and stops at dawn...
Occasionally it rains during the day.
Temporary office area of Yunshan Ranch, tin house, heavy rain pouring outside the windows. In the office, Chen Mo and Cohen stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes...
Chen Mo looked at Cohen with a strange expression.
The more Chen Mo thought about the acquisition of Huarong Technology and changed its name to Yunshan Technology Innovation Company, the more something was wrong. The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was a lie...
"The Huarong Technology Company you recommended."
"Yeah." Cohen nodded. This company has very good prospects for the projects they have developed. And they have already made a prototype that can fly. It is an electric vertical take-off and landing four-axis, eight-rotor aircraft with a load capacity of 1.5 tons.
Said it was very remarkable.
Chen Mo didn't understand this, and he didn't know what the concept of an unmanned aerial vehicle with a load capacity of 1.5 tons was...
A few years ago, Boeing directly acquired Aurora Flight to develop unmanned aerial vehicles. After that, technicians from the two parties jointly established a small team of 50 people and built an aircraft with a load of more than 200 kilograms in a few months. In the early days,
The performance of this aircraft is not much better than the Huarong 1.5t. After several years of improvement, this aircraft is still not mature enough and has not yet been put into commercial use...
Huarong 1.5t is not a shell company. It has real core technologies, such as eight-rotor coaxial technology, which has applied for many useful patents. For example, four-axis curve design, Li Huarong said, these are
A very powerful design. There is also a four-axis eight-wing flight control system, which is completely independently developed. It can provide nearly 2 times more lift than the four-axis four-wing design. It is also nearly twice as much as the ordinary four-axis eight-wing design.
The lifting force...
Powered by electricity, the battery weighs only 330 kilograms. This can support a full load of 2.36 tons and a flight time of more than 20 minutes...
Everyone knows about Tesla cars. The battery of Tesla cars weighs 900 kilograms.
The battery used by Huarong 1.5t is also a lithium battery combination board, which is specially customized. A set of battery boards costs more than one million, but the life cycle is only 300 charges and discharges.
“It is necessary to continue to dig deeper into the Huarong 1.5t project. I also play drones and am a fan of DJI drones. From what I know about drones... Huarong 1.5t is a breakthrough.
A technical bottleneck is mainly the four-axis and eight-rotor layout, which is very innovative. The reason why it has not attracted the attention of those big companies is because the accident rate of Huarong Technology Company is too high. This is mainly due to materials.
The reason is the flight control system." Cohen stared: "The Huarong 1.5t can fly, it is flying with full load, and it has a range of 30 kilometers. This... is amazing. As long as it can fly, it means
The design of Huarong 1.5t is very successful... As for the accident rate, that is, the problems with aircraft materials and flight control systems, as long as you are willing to spend money, these things can basically be solved, and it will not be particularly difficult."
In order to maintain a constant altitude, a rotary-wing aircraft needs a rotor pull force equal to gravity. A weight of 1,000 kg requires at least a pull force of 1,000 kgf to maintain the height. If it wants to fly forward, the pull force is even greater.
The biggest difficulty for unmanned rotary-wing aircraft is how to increase the pulling force. Li Ronghua has completed the design in this area and it has been particularly successful. The reason why it has not attracted widespread attention is the accident rate and the lack of management skills. There is also another reason why it has not attracted widespread attention.
The reason is that Li Huarong's design plan is also very difficult to make a safe and reliable flight control system...
There are not many delicious and cheap lunches in this world.
The Huarong 1.5t may have 10,000 shortcomings, but it can carry 1.5 tons of cargo. This is a fact, and Chen Mo has also verified it.
The most intuitive thing about the concept of 1.5 tons is that it can transport 10 125 motorcycles at a time. As long as the technology is mature, it will be a flying truck... But as a flying truck, the technology needs to go further, and the most important thing...
Battery.
Yunshan Innovation Company cannot independently study the battery. It can only propose performance indicators and outsource them, or cooperate with other companies. These are things for later. The first thing to be completed now is to further optimize the aircraft structure and flight control.
At the very least, the system must be able to intelligently adjust the flight attitude, otherwise the wind will be just a little bit stronger and the aircraft will be scrapped...
After completing these two points, Chen Mo is ready to find a partner, sell part of the shares, refinance part of the shares, give up the controlling stake... and now recover some of the investment.
To do this, Chen Mo looked at Cohen: "The Li Huarong you introduced to me, you should know better than me what kind of development prospects this company has. You will be the CEO of Yunshan Technology Innovation Company."
Cohen didn't think much about it and nodded: "Okay."
"We only need to do two things now: optimize the structure of the aircraft and create a flight control system that relies on safety and reliability."
"Okay." Cohen was still very interested in these big toys.
"If these two points can be completed within one year, I will give you 5% of the shares of Yunshan Technology."
Cohen thought for a moment: "Within one year...what if it's two years?"
"One percent. Technology is all about grabbing time. The earlier the technology matures, the higher its value will be."
"It will be completed within one year, and the research and development capital will be within 1 billion yuan. I will give you 5% of the shares...Whether you can become rich overnight depends on your ability." Cohen does not understand technology, but he knows management. Just like Boss Ma
, he probably doesn’t know much about technology, but Alibaba is one of the top technology companies in the country.
The valuation of DJI Technology is over 10 billion U.S. dollars. People who don’t know it think DJI quad-rotor drones are awesome, but the technical threshold for quad-rotor drones is not high. With a valuation of 10 billion U.S. dollars, DJI
The most powerful technology is gimbal technology. Because of this gimbal technology, DJI Technology is a unique technology in the field of aerial photography...
The drones developed by Yunshan Technology are not used for aerial photography, but are mainly used to transport goods. This is an innovation that can change the future transportation method. Although the current 30-kilometer transportation fee is expensive, as long as the weight of the battery panel group is changed, it will
It is not difficult to increase the range of the Huarong 1.5t... This thing may not be popular in big cities, but it is particularly cost-effective to transport in remote mountainous areas and between islands. It can also be used to transport industrial equipment, or
Delivering goods to oil drilling rigs... even transporting military supplies, disaster relief, and treating wounded people in the wild... Drones are necessary because they are easy to operate. Amateur drone enthusiasts can play with this thing...
The Huarong 1.5t is very big, but uses a modular design. After professional study, three people can disassemble or assemble a Huarong 1.5t in half an hour, load it on a truck and send it away. It can be said that it is very
Convenient.
With 5% of the shares, you may become a rich man with a net worth of over 100 million US dollars in the future, but that’s not necessarily the case...
Cohen took a deep breath: "Okay."
Chen Mo smiled: "Come on."
"Well... I think that all future fertilization work in the pasture will be done by drones. The programming of the drone flight control system requires the use of a large amount of flight test data, as well as flight data in various states.
…Yunshan Ranch is a good testing site.”
Chen Mo shrugged: "Okay. Anyway, in the next twelve months, I will only allocate 1 billion to Yunshan Technology Company. You work hard. But don't forget, you still have to take care of the work of Yunshan Ranch."
"The work on the ranch is simple. Besides, there is Cohen, and Cons will be here in a few days..."
It was still raining heavily outside the window. In the fields not far away, the young leaves of the newly planted grass sprouted, and they looked green at first glance.
Chen Mo looked at the time: "Follow me to the warehouse area to see if Li Ronghua and the others have settled down."
