Chapter 148
As a power supply device, the battery is tested by using the battery to discharge and consume energy.

Therefore, one of the easiest ways to earn battery technology task points is to use the newly developed battery, not only for any purpose, but also as a test, so as to drive external assistance points and investment points.

Therefore, Xia Zhi contacted Liang Shitang who was doing the autopilot test of the aircraft.

Liang Shitang, who just came back from a business trip to Chernobyl, rushed to Xia Zhi's office after receiving news from Sun Shiliang.

Xia Zhi cut to the chase and told Liang Shitang:
"It's better to use batteries for the power supply of this aircraft."

Liang Shitang responded:
"It's almost the same, but the advantage of the fuel tank is that it is light in weight, and the load on the aircraft is small, and as the fuel is consumed, the load will decrease."

Xia Zhi nodded:

"But you see that cars are now becoming new energy trams, not to mention our aircraft, so let's change the way of energy supply."

Liang Shitang asked:
"Mr. Xia, do you mean to use batteries?"

Xia Zhi hummed, handed over the information on BYD's new battery technology to Liang Shitang, and said:

"This is a newly developed battery by BYD. It has good performance in all aspects and can greatly increase the power of the aircraft."

Liang Shitang looked at it, but didn't comment.

Firstly, he didn't understand the specific technical content, and secondly, Mr. Xia had already said so, so he naturally wouldn't raise any objections.

Xia Zhi continued to instruct Liang Shitang:
"Contact Mark and customize some aircraft with battery interfaces with him. The interface parameters should be adapted to BYD's. You should focus on following up on this matter to avoid any problems."

Liang Shitang promised Xia Zhi:

"Okay, Mr. Xia, I'll do it now."

Liang Shitang was about to leave, Xia Zhi suddenly stopped Liang Shitang and asked:

"How many aircraft are being tested over there at Chernobyl?"

Liang Shitang replied:
"There are thirteen units, ten of which were tested normally."

Xia Zhi nodded and said:

"Buy more of this electric model aircraft, let's buy a hundred, I will hold an air show next month."

Liang Shitang nodded:
"Okay, let's hand over this big order to Mark, and I will negotiate a good deal with him."

Xia Zhi didn't care:

"Money is not a problem. The key is to prepare the goods as soon as possible, and the quality must be guaranteed. If there is any problem in the flight next month, our aircraft project will die before it is completed."

Liang Shitang once again assured:
"No problem, Mr. Xia, I will watch closely."

Xia Zhi nodded, and waved his hand to indicate that Liang Shitang could go to work.

Liang Shitang left Xia Zhi's office and immediately contacted Mark of Aerofex to purchase a large number of electric aircraft.

There are a total of 23 orders, and after price negotiation, the final price is [-] US dollars for each aircraft.

Sun Shiliang took the order contract handed over by Liang Shitang and signed it for Xia Zhi.

While signing, Xia Zhi sighed:
"This aircraft is a bit expensive, more than 100 million, I feel that the price can be lowered."

Sun Shiliang is also paying attention to the aircraft project recently, knowing the inside story, nodded and said:

"Yes, the cost of the aircraft is actually not that high. The main reason is that the patent of the superfluid gyroscope is in their hands, so let them ask for the price."

Xia Zhi signed, handed the document to Sun Shiliang, and said:
"We are doing research and development now, and the money is nothing, but this aircraft project will eventually be popularized in the later stage, just like the cars that are running all over the ground now.

The cost of purchasing the aircraft from Aerofex alone is more than 100 million. In the future, including the cost of new batteries, patents for autopilot and smart city scheduling, and the profit ratio that Zhixia Technology needs to charge, the price of this aircraft will be directly After spending 200 million yuan, it is not a commuting tool that ordinary people can afford. "

Sun Shiliang followed up with analysis:

“Aircraft can be a supplementary means of transportation to cars, and there is no need to completely replace ground-based cars for the time being, so our target audience can be those who have the purchasing power of supercars.

Even so, it is still necessary to reduce the cost of the aircraft to about 100 million. After all, the maintenance cost of the aircraft is much more expensive than those supercars. "

Xia Zhi thought for a while and asked:

"If there were an alternative to superfluid gyroscopes on the market, and if there were quality air vehicle competitors, the prices wouldn't be so inflated."

Sun Shiliang also said:
"There are very few companies in the market that are serious about making aircraft. Cars have been developed for more than 100 years, and now the mature industry line has brought down the price. When cars first came out, they were priceless.

So, when Zhixia Technology develops new battery technology and aircraft autopilot algorithm, more and more manufacturers will make aircraft, and then someone will naturally develop a technology that can compete with Aerofex. "

Speaking of this, Xia Zhi interrupted Sun Shiliang's words and said:
"That's what I said, but we at Zhixia Technology never place our hopes on tomorrow when we can't see the specific situation. It's up to people to do it. Now we have to do some preparatory work. You have to do a few things:
First of all, contact the team that can make the superfluid directional balance system, see if you can bypass Aerofex’s patents, improve and optimize their technology, and then find other teams that can make alternative solutions for the balance system. In short, we can’t let this Aerofex give us Take it easy. "

Sun Shiliang nodded:
"Okay, I'll do it."

At the end of May, Zhixia Technology held a grand urban aircraft exhibition in Chernobyl.

As the opening speaker, Xia Zhi flew from the backstage to the audience on a flying machine, shocking everyone.

It was as if the gods descended, stepping on the lotus platform and falling to the world.

Everyone at the scene held their heads up, their eyes following Xia Zhi's whereabouts, and seeing Xia Zhi landed steadily and got off the aircraft, the audience was ebullient.

"Damn it, is this too sci-fi? I thought it was some advanced drone. Zhixia Technology slapped me in the face."

"It's so cool! Zhixia Technology YYDS! This trip to the site is super worth it."

"Hurry up and tell me the price of this aircraft, let me give up now, or I will dream of buying this aircraft every night in the future."

At this time, the audience watching the video broadcast outside the venue was also swiping the barrage:

"Isn't this too stable? The aircraft I saw at the science and technology exhibition before required professionals to control various sensors. Mr. Xia didn't seem to be involved in the control of the aircraft during the whole process."

"I heard before that Zhixia Technology is working on autonomous driving of aircraft. Now the research and development of this pilot should be completed. Zhixia Technology is really awesome."

"Zhixia Technology is at the forefront of technology and can work!"

Xia Zhi faced the audience and began to address:
"You can see that my appearance is a bit special, isn't it cool? Before long, this cool way of travel will become a normal choice for social commuting.

The aircraft under my feet is a product from Aerofex. They provide hardware design such as aircraft engine power. We Zhixia Technology has now developed a mature aircraft autopilot algorithm, which is perfectly adapted to the aircraft hardware.

So you don't need to worry about driving this aircraft badly.

What about security?This kind of single-person unprotected aircraft is really dangerous because it is only a test model. In the future, we will launch a disc flying shell like a flying saucer, and the safety of passengers sitting inside is very high.

Moreover, the aircraft has an automatic driving algorithm, and it is also connected to the intelligent traffic dispatching platform, and the platform algorithm allocates the travel route, so there is no need to worry about two aircraft colliding in the air.

Many people want to ask: Zhixia Technology's aircraft has been developed to such an extent, why hasn't it been launched into the market? "

The video broadcast platform was filled with barrage, following Xia Zhi’s question:
"Zhixia Technology's aircraft has been developed to this extent, why hasn't it been launched into the market?"

"Zhixia Technology's aircraft has been developed to this extent, why hasn't it been launched into the market?"

"Zhixia Technology's aircraft has been developed to this extent, why hasn't it been launched into the market?"
