Becoming Rich with Daily Scavenging APP-Chapter 472: Commercial Fusion Project

A solution doesn’t fear being old, as long as it works.

This is the situation Chen Yiyang faces now.

Back then, they used this issue to attack Fei Peng Automobile. Chen Yiyang looked at Fei Peng’s response at the time, and it was indeed a quick surrender. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

After the news came out, Fei Peng Automobile immediately announced that they would optimize their algorithm.

Then various other car companies followed suit, jumping on the hype.

It seems like a harmonious scene.

But after all, this is a negative news, and it’s hard to say that it didn’t affect Fei Peng’s subsequent development.

Although Fei Peng’s rapid decline might not necessarily be related to this news.

But because Fei Peng quickly fell to the bottom after a brief glory, it no longer attracted further attacks.

If Chen Yiyang doesn’t respond to this news, various attacks will definitely follow.

"Let’s use the simplest method." After thinking for a long time, Chen Yiyang said.

He feels this issue has to be resolved through manpower.

"If artificial intelligence doesn’t work, we’ll go completely manual." Chen Yiyang told the technicians, "There are very few people in this world with such small eyes. If this happens again, we’ll have customer service transfer the case to the technical department and have them specifically tag this person’s car. If it’s detected that they’re driving, then have the back-end disable the fatigue driving reminder system."

"Okay." The technician nodded.

This is indeed a method. Since it’s an isolated case, instead of thinking about upgrading the entire system, it’s better to directly mark it manually. If a customer reports this issue again, label them as a ’small-eye’ customer.

With a wave to signal to his subordinates to handle it, Chen Yiyang finally found time to lazily recline in his chair for a break.

Previously, he mainly wandered around making investments. For an investor, there are very few enemies. Since no company wants to offend an investor, everyone faces tough times when they need investors to inject funds.

If the business world is a martial arts world, then investors are like doctors who only treat patients and charge fees. Although they occasionally get involved in disputes, nobody considers investors as enemies.

But once investors themselves start a business venture, it’s different.

Especially in the automotive industry, which is already fiercely competitive.

Every new competitor means less profit for others.

Moreover, all companies entering the automotive field are well aware of this.

The domestic market is large, but such a large market can only accommodate a few companies.

The payment arena has Tengxu and Alibaba, the shopping arena has Taobao, Jindong, and Pinduoduo, the food delivery field, the ride-sharing field, and many others illustrate this point.

The strategy is to first knock down all peers and then start profiting when there are only a few competitors left who can’t overpower each other.

However, as the fiercest battles in the automotive industry have just begun, even with good relationships in the business field, Chen Yiyang must face all-out attacks from competitors.

This incident is just an appetizer.

Moreover, Chen Yiyang’s previously relied-upon lifeline, deekseep, is now less effective.

At first, when large artificial intelligence models emerged, they amazed the world, making deekseep’s lead significant and commendable.

However, as artificial intelligence large models have yet to make a mark in the commercial field.

It’s like in the graphics card chip arena: although they are getting more advanced, the gaming industry still develops web games. So your upgrading of graphics cards and chips becomes meaningless.

Thus, Chen Yiyang needs to find a new lifeline.

One that can not only reduce personal attacks but also enhance Yiyang Automobile’s brand influence.

However, it’s tough to find such fields.

Back in the office, Chen Yiyang rummaged through the list of companies hoping to get his investment that his assistant had previously sent him.

But very few seemed reliable.

Yet, while browsing, Chen Yiyang came across a project that seemed high-end and future-oriented.

Controlled nuclear fusion?

A private company is embarking on this project?

Chen Yiyang was a bit puzzled.

In his mind, nuclear fusion, a field determining if humans can achieve energy independence in the future, is generally researched by multinational collaborations, isn’t it?

How are private enterprises getting involved?

So Chen Yiyang asked his assistant to send detailed information about this company.

This company, called Energy Starting Point, is a startup in Shanghai focusing on controlled nuclear fusion, currently seeking external investment.

Chen Yiyang took a close look at the company’s personnel structure and found it wasn’t a scam company.

The major employees come from top universities and research institutes, currently primarily dedicated to exploring commercial fusion energy technology.

This company is currently in the seed round of investment.

If invested in at this stage, as long as the company achieves something, it would be easy to cash out shares in later investment stages.

Since Chen Yiyang doesn’t want to make a special trip to Shanghai for such a company.

Mostly because even if he goes, there’s nothing to see yet since this company hasn’t built any facilities.

So Chen Yiyang directly called the company’s boss to inquire how they plan to conduct research if they receive funding.

"We’re planning to build an experimental setup in Shanghai," the Energy Starting Point’s boss said, "It will be a nuclear fusion experiment device, three meters tall like a jar, surrounded by various pipes to transfer gases, coolants, and electricity as ’ingredients’ for experiments."

Before testing, we’ll evacuate air from the device to create a vacuum environment inside. Then external facilities will spend weeks injecting liquid nitrogen and helium into areas outside the vacuum chamber, lowering their temperature to around -240 degrees, and then injecting an electric current to the superconductors inside to form a powerful helical magnetic field.

Once the device is activated, numerous electrons will bombard the hydrogen injected in advance into the vacuum chamber along the helical magnetic field, turning it into rapidly rotating plasma. Meanwhile, surrounding devices emit electromagnetic waves with the same rotation frequency to the plasma, heating it to 5 million degrees."

"Wait, wait." As a slew of incomprehensible terms poured from the other party’s mouth, Chen Yiyang hurriedly interrupted.

"I now finally understand why you need funding, but you need to tell me, what can be achieved by doing this?"

"Simply put," though interrupted, the other party wasn’t upset and continued.

"This experiment aims to verify our technology’s feasibility. If successful, this device could achieve energy gains commercially.

Understanding energy gain is straightforward; by inputting ten units of electricity into this device, a hundred units could be generated. If things go well, we could finish the project by 2027 and commercialize it by 2030 at the latest."
