706: Chapter 706 Reboot Test!
706: Chapter 706 Reboot Test!
The scorching sun blazed.
The sprawling industrial zone had been locked down early in the morning.
From the suburban military airport to the road leading to Tianyuan Green Energy Car Company.
Every intersection had police control to ensure the convoy sped along its way and arrived unobstructed.
And the company’s plant had long since transford.
Two days ago, Wu Jie brought back nurous staff and set off a major renovation.
First off, in the battery research institute, Wu Jie created a batch of Graphene Composite Batteries for the staff to test and inspect.
Next, he dismantled the company’s warehouse to expand the original car testing grounds and acquired quite a few experintal devices.
Last, of course, was setting up a fully equipped battery swap station out of nowhere.
Certainly, there were also plenty of electric cars prepared for testing.
Everything was ready, we just had to wait for Tan to co for the inspection.
Phew!
Fang Qingya, dressed in the company’s work clothes, stood beside Wu Jie, almost suffocating with nervousness.
Feeling sowhat uneasy!
A visit from the big leader!
This was an honor many enterprises dreamt of.
How long had the company been established?
Without significant fa or impressive achievents, it was just an unknown startup.
But everything changed dramatically because of Wu Jie standing beside her.
Three days ago.
Fang Qingya did not know why Wu Jie suddenly needed to secretly rush to produce batteries and hurry to Liuli City.
Afterward, he brought back employees whom they wouldn’t usually have a chance to et, sending the entire company into shock.
Fang Qingya was doing okay, after all, she had witnessed Wu Jie’s mysterious identity that night.
Bringing back a few staff mbers only ant his background was indeed profound and powerful.
As for work…
Fang Qingya naturally ordered the whole company to spare no expense in supporting Wu Jie.
Whatever needed demolishing, buying, or building…
In any case, Fang Qingya knew the chance to create a miracle had arrived, and if she didn’t seize it, she would regret it for life.
As for money?
Was that an issue?
Before her father, Fang Guozhi, went abroad, he left Fang Qingya with several billion, and only a third had been spent on starting this company.
Having money ant being capricious.
The electric cars prepared for testing amounted to over thirty.
If they were all to be scrapped, that would an a loss of tens of millions of yuan.
Scientific research ant constantly burning money through trial and error, but once successful, it would reap a huge profit.
What needed to be done had been done.
Now, we were just waiting for the leaders to verify the truth and witness the miracle.
Though she had an inexplicable confidence in Wu Jie, Fang Qingya was too nervous.
No helping it!
Leaders she had only seen in dia news were about to appear in person, how could she not be nervous?
Moreover, after spending so much effort and staying up all night in preparation, if they didn’t succeed, wouldn’t that be incredibly embarrassing?
Phew!
Fang Qingya let out another long sigh.
Her pearly teeth bit her red lips, and her hands clenched and then released.
She felt even more nervous and excited than during her first underground racing experience, restlessly anxious.
A strange feeling surged, as if all the blood in her body was about to ignite, like her heart was throbbing to leap out.
However, glancing slightly to the side…
She saw Wu Jie with a faint smile, his eyes slightly narrowed.
Observing clouds rise and dissipate, watching flowers bloom and wither!
This calmness in the face of honor and disgrace, the ability to stay unflustered amidst change, must be the lofty state of ‘being unmoved even if Mount Tai crumbles before one’!
“Aren’t you…
nervous?”
Fang Qingya took a quick glance at everyone else, who were quite anxious, and couldn’t help but whisper curiously to Wu Jie.
“Nervous about what?
It’s not the first ti I’ve t them!”
Wu Jie replied with a light smile.
“Relax, just follow my lead when they co, and everything will be done step by step!”
Fang Qingya nodded in agreent, still taking a deep breath unconsciously.
She held her head high, trying to appear as relaxed and natural as possible.
At that mont.
An alarm sounded from afar, drawing closer.
The tightly secured factory gate opened slowly.
A police car drove in at a reduced speed, followed by two black Audis, and then three minibuses.
There were special service vehicles rounding off the rear, and once the convoy entered the factory area, the gates closed firmly behind them.
“They’re here!”
Wu Jie let out a slight smile and led everyone forward to greet them.
As the vehicles stopped one by one, there were many guards and even more leaders.
So journalists were also there, carrying caras and filming.
Seeing many familiar faces appear before her, Fang Qingya’s heart nearly skipped a beat.
In person!
Finally, she t them in person!
No longer just from news reports, she was seeing each individual in the flesh.
After Tan and his entourage got out of their vehicles, they led the group to et and shake hands with Wu Jie, Fang Qingya, and the others, exchanging warm greetings.
Of course.
Shen Lang, the head of Tianyuan whom Wu Jie had t more than once, was also present.
He was a forr student of Old Mr.
Tang, often visiting to play chess with him whenever he had spare ti.
When Tan brought many leaders to inspect, Shen Lang naturally went to welco the plane.
At this mont, he enthusiastically introduced Wu Jie and the others to Tan and his accompanying delegation.
Fang Qingya and the others were already excited, but upon hearing the introductions and shaking hands, they beca even more thrilled.
Their faces blushed, as if they were intoxicated or had applied thick rouge.
After a brief exchange of greetings, Tan delivered a short speech publicly.
He touched on simple policy interpretations regarding innovation, clean energy, and industrial collaboration.
He encouraged the enterprise to be bold in innovation and to strive for progress… Applause filled the air.
Subsequently.
As the company’s technical director, Wu Jie naturally led everyone to visit the company.
From the Battery Research Institute to the New Material and Technology Testing Institute, then to the production assembly line, automated storage…
The final highlight, of course, was the electric vehicle.
Within the ticulously prepared testing grounds.
A series of stylish and atmospheric electric vehicles were lined up, ready and waiting.
To avoid having the leaders visit under the scorching sun, a large shade canopy was prepared within the parking area.
This trip.
Tan brought many departntal personnel, along with many heads of enterprises and scientific research institutions.
Especially the leaders from state-owned enterprises in industries such as oil, chemical, electric power, machinery, and electronics.
They all ca with a professional eye, from an extrely stringent scientific perspective, to visit and experience.
However…
In the static display and experience section, they really couldn’t find any faults.
The vehicle’s exterior design was stylish and atmospheric, aligned with the public’s aesthetic tastes.
The interior decoration used environntally friendly, non-toxic, odorless materials and incorporated ergonomics everywhere, convenient and practical.
The vehicle configurations and technical components were directly displayed on exhibition stands.
A car was ‘dissected’ into tens of thousands of large and small parts.
From screws as small as peas to as large as electric motors.
All sorts of components were on display, which ones were imported, which were dostically produced, and which were independently developed.
Everything was clearly displayed, and so key components even ca with performance and technical introductions.
In this way.
From the exterior to the details, from technology to configurations…
they couldn’t find any faults or flaws with the vehicles.
After all, Fang Qingya and her group of friends had been playing with and modifying cars for so many years, and the money spent was not in vain.
What kind of design ets the public aesthetic, what kind of configuration is the most straightforward and practical, what manufacturer’s equipnt is advanced and reliable…
A group of rich kids who had been playing with cars for years obviously understood contemporary vehicles better than the ‘scholars and experts’ who stayed in their offices all day.
Of course.
Wu Jie knew that no matter how good the static display and riding experience were, they were no match for actually putting the cars in motion.
To shut up those who deliberately ca to find faults.
Wu Jie prepared many experintal devices.
Just for test rigs, several were ready, lined up in a row, and Tan was personally invited to pick the vehicles to be tested.
“Ladies and gentlen!
In the past, when testing the endurance of electric vehicles or the fuel consumption per hundred kiloters for gasoline vehicles, it often involved only one person driving on very smooth roads, carrying lighter loads, naturally yielding better results!”
“Today, to convince everyone that our electric vehicles have good endurance, we have prepared several test rigs so that all vehicles carry the weight of five standard adults, as well as no less than two hundred kilograms of luggage!”
“After the vehicles are fixed onto the rigs, not only can we simulate different road surfaces like concrete, asphalt, and mud, but we can also simulate situations such as high-speed driving, urban congestion, uphill, downhill, and sharp turns.”
…
Upon hearing what Wu Jie said, many people were stunned.
Not to ntion the road conditions being tested, the load itself was already frightening.
A heavy load will inevitably affect endurance.
Just like the fuel vehicles sold on the market, the fuel consumption is certainly different when driving with only a driver nearly empty compared to being full of passengers and carrying a lot of luggage.
Wu Jie, on arrival, opted for a ‘heavy load test.’ Was this a display of confidence or digging one’s own grave?
After the accompanying technicians had conducted a fair inspection, the test began.
Several vehicles were sent onto the testing rig, towing heavy lead counterweights and even running the automatic air conditioning for different road condition tests.
Even Tan was worried that it wouldn’t be long before they were told the battery was dead.
If that were the case…
it would indeed be quite embarrassing.
However.
As ti ticked by, through a dedicated large display screen.
Everyone saw each vehicle’s energy managent interface; although the amount of battery power consud varied, it was still very linear.
The one that consud power the fastest was the electric SUV driven on the ‘muddy mountain road’ under heavy load.
It simulated a vehicle driving on a rugged and winding mountain road with lots of bumps and dips, including steep uphill and downhill sections.
Such road conditions would be challenging even for a professional diesel off-road vehicle being tested, with a guaranteed high fuel consumption.
By comparison.
The electric sedan simulated to be driving on the highway was a different story altogether.
Although it was not light in load and had the automatic air conditioning running, along with lane departure warning, obstacle alert, radar infrared detection, and other equipnt operating, the rate of battery consumption was quite slow.
When converted, it was significantly lower than the fuel consumption of gas-powered vehicles.
…
Waiting for all the electric vehicles’ batteries to run out of power would clearly take a long while.
To prevent everyone from just standing around watching, Wu Jie invited all the guests to pick an electric vehicle to test ride and drive at their leisure.
Enthusiastic Tan picked an SUV and, along with Wu Jie and three others and with two hundred kilograms of ‘luggage’ loaded in the trunk, was the first to drive off.
The other leaders naturally did not want to be left behind, so they ford groups and set off as well.
The testing area was large enough to accommodate multiple vehicles driving at the sa ti.
Right-angle turns, S-curves, straight-line acceleration, water fording, muddy paths, gravel roads, steep slopes…
When Tan was younger, he served as an automotive transportation soldier.
After riding around the track, he beca very attached to the SUV.
Its acceleration was powerful, the braking linear and precise, throttle response was quick, and handling had good directional control…
In many vehicles on the market, the various driving modes don’t make much of a difference.
But when he drove this car himself, he discovered that its different modes offered a very distinct driving feel.
In sport mode, the high power output of the motor provided a stronger push than that of high-horsepower gasoline engines.
In comfort mode, the entire suspension system of the car beca softer, filtering out vibrations from the ground as much as possible.
After driving many laps in one go, Tan was as excited as if he had grown twenty years younger.
Such a passionate and stimulating drive scared the security guard sitting beside him.
Fortunately, Tan didn’t indulge in his wild driving spree for too long.
Although there was still plenty of battery life left, enough to run another three hundred kiloters, he was still very curious and drove the vehicle into the battery swapping station.
Unlike going into a gas station and opening the fuel cap, Wu Jie’s design involved opening the hood.
Once the hood was opened, the overhead crane removed the existing battery and replaced it with a fully charged one.
The whole process took only thirty seconds, even faster than refueling!
Looking at the LCD dashboard, the range was full again, ready to tear down the road for another three to four hundred kiloters without any pressure.
“My goodness!
You are definitely going to shock the world with this one!”
Wu Jie gave a knowing smile, but was well aware that good things don’t co easy.
And sure enough, after the series of test drives had ended.
A stream of nitpicking and skepticism followed…
