Monster Factory-Chapter 652: Don't believe this evil.
As soon as the Shi Lei car landed at the airport, it was transported to Tesla headquarters by a large truck. CEO Martin, who turns 50 this year, personally greeted the arrival of the Shi Lei car in the underground parking lot of the corporate headquarters. Even before that, Martin had seen many videos related to the Shi Lei car, as well as many high-definition photos of interior details broadcast by Chinese laymen in their WiChats.
When he saw the Shi Lei car, Martin, who is an engineer and used to seeing the world's advanced industrial technology, was amazed, this Shi Lei car was so perfect that it didn't look like an industrial assembly line product, but rather the metalwork of art.
Standing in front of the Shi Lei car, the group of engineers next to Martin stared at the car with big mouths especially when they found that the spacing between the Shi Lei car and their products in the shell construction was more bigger than the gap between their teeth when their mouths were open, and they were ashamed of them.
The appearance of Tesla cars is not amazing, and the team led by Martin has positioned its products focusing more on family practical functions, it seems that they cannot coexist these two functions; practicality and beauty. The pursuit of practicality requires a compromise towards a comfortable space structure. In the pursuit of beauty, it is necessary to refer to the mainstream design and reduce the space for the limbs.
However, in front of this sci-fi car with a cool shape and an absolutely 100% return rate on the street, the moment, the car door was opened, a group of strangers who were focusing on the industry automobile suddenly widened its eyes.
What a spacious space!
The ride height of this car is obviously as high as that of an ordinary family car, but when the door was opened to sit down, it gave people a particularly comfortable and spacious feeling as if they were sitting in an SUV.
After a long and detailed investigation, Martin and the others found that the trunk of the Shi Lei car was very simple, without the messy pipelines and transmission mechanisms of the fuel car, and the chassis of the electric car was also armored than the bank vault, and there seemed to be no battery in the chassis at all, and even the tire steering mechanism and shock-absorbing suspension were surprisingly simple.
At the same time, the seats of the Shi Lei car were much thinner than traditional cars, which saved a lot of space, and sitting on them was more comfortable than sitting in any car seat.
"There's no reason. The thickness of this car's chassis is only a third of ours. How does it house the battery?"
"Perhaps part of the battery is placed under the front compartment cover," Someone opened the front cover of Shi Lei's car, and the result was the same when he looked inside the open trunk, there was a large storage box inside.
The front of a traditional car requires a bulky motor, but electric cars don't, so a storage box can also be left in the front of the car.
"The battery can only be in the chassis. It took Tesla five years to develop the battery management technology that we are proud of around the world. We used 7,000 1,865 mA lithium batteries in series to form the Tesla's energy pack."
"There is no reason why this car can be better than our car."
CEO Martin was not convinced, five years of hard work and the hard work of dozens of engineers, they achieved the world's first fully electric car to become the brightest star in the automotive industry, there's no reason today's glory should be taken away by a tech company that started out producing industrial equipment.
It took 30 years to make Tesla a juggernaut, an innovator in the automotive market. During this period of hard work and only paying attention to one thing which is none other than the improvement of the electric power car, Martin absolutely did not believe that the Shi Lei car could be better than the one he had devoted most of his life to implementing it.
Of course, Martin could not accept this approach, and Tesla is a very complex industrial product. Even though this Shi Lei car is so strong it couldn't outrun the car built by Tesla. For example, the intelligent assistant admitted that it was very interesting and Shi Lei could not compare it. As to whether that invisible detail is better, he could only take it apart with a little inspection and research.
After tens of minutes, the Shi Lei car was transferred to the testing laboratory. Martin was there in person, and he wanted to see what was inside.
The laboratory covers an area of about 2000 square meters, with a test bench and a crash test track. At the same time, there are three warehouses in the south, where simulation of the high and low-temperature working environment of vehicles and fording tests can be carried out.
"Prepare for video recording and at the same time measure and label all disassembled parts." Martin snapped his fingers at the busy engineers, and then got into the cabin of the Shi Lei car.
The executive officer followed the instructions and Martin started Shi Lei's car with the key. When the car's central control screen was replaced, the translucent assistant also popped out.
"Oops master, I cannot detect the GPS positioning module. Without the positioning module, our navigation function cannot be used. It seems that we need to go to the after-sales service center."
Martin set the language to English, and then bound the car owner to become himself. After realizing what was happening, he smiled slightly, the GPS module was naturally manipulated by them.
"Who is better between you and Tesla?" Martin held his chin and looked at the little helper with strange eyes.
"Master, of course, I'm better, I have advantages over Tesla..."
"Wait for ~ Master, I have detected that someone is trying to remove my wheels. Master, is this under your command?" The intelligent assistant immediately produced a model of the Shi Lei car, and the model's left front tire appeared to flash in a red circle.
"Yeah, I don't think you're as good as Tesla, so I'm going to tear you down," Martin said somewhat spitefully.
As soon as he finished speaking, the little helper anxiously recalled that someone was trying to remove the rear wheel. Martin was uninterested and continued to watch the engineers outside, using tools to dismantle the Shi Lei car piece by piece. At the end of the disassembly, only the bare chassis of the Shi Lei car remained, and even the shock-absorbing suspension was gone.
Martin and the group of engineers remained silent for a long time in front of the Shi Lei car chassis and did not say a word. They guessed right, the Shi Lei had been completely disassembled, but they found no battery in the pile of parts. This means that its battery can only be in the chassis. But to say that there was a battery hidden in this chassis less than five centimeters thick, Martin was the first not to believe.
"Boss, the weight measurement shows that this chassis weighs only 400 kilograms, which is twice as light as our Tesla. This goes against scientific common sense."
"Cut out the chassis." Martin, who also did not believe in evil, waved his hand.
Upon receiving the order, an engineer immediately stepped forward with a precision cutting tool. After a few "chutu~" sounds, the upper protective shell of the chassis was cut open, revealing eight silver-white metal objects that were tiled inside.
Is it the battery?
Martin felt that someone had stuck a wooden stick in his head, and he was wiggling it. Their Tesla batteries consisted of over 7,000 small batteries connected in series. These batteries constituted sixteen groups of battery modules, which are encapsulated with flame-retardant sealing materials. Each group of batteries is separated by metal beams. Each battery is welded with sonic welding technology and has an overload protection wire. There are also complex battery management units, battery liquid cooling circuits, battery heating circuits, etc.
The battery is first heated in the winter and cooled in the summer, which is the ultimate care. For their battery alone, there are dozens of technical patents, especially the battery management technology which is hailed as the world's first. Now there are only eight metal plates to form a Shi Lei car battery?
"Boss, the silver-white metal shell of the battery seems to be a protective layer, and there are no screws that can be disassembled."
"Cut it with a cold cut. I want to see what the plasma battery looks like."
"Okay."
Engineers immediately took the cold-cutting equipment, sharpened the knives, and lifted the plasma battery sealed in the protective nickel-titanium memory alloy case onto the workbench.
