Chapter 548: Iron-Based Superconductors!

Remember [Flag] in a second, popular free reading!

It is no wonder that Zhang Ming, the company's executives, will question the strange reason that "the production of raw materials is insufficient and cannot achieve large-scale mass production" from the Ruicheng production base.

Because so far, the detailed structural drawings and parameters of the two new cars [Pangu] and [Nuwa] have been sent to the R&D department of the imperial capital.

Through the efforts of hundreds of scientific researchers, not to mention the intelligent driving computer that has been facing the earth technology for 50 years, even the more than 300 cemented carbide screws on and off the body have been thoroughly studied.

It's just that when sending design drawings to the R&D department, Chen Hao, a turtle, still had a private hand. It is to give a reasonable photoshop to the [electromagnetic levitation module] that was originally installed in the suspension of the car.

Eldest brother!

This is electromagnetic levitation technology!

As long as it is properly commercialized, human beings can leapfrog the existing aerospace field and directly enter the level of interstellar travel.

Once such a terrible black technology is announced, not to mention how many deadly commercial spies will be born within [Future Technology]. It is estimated that agents all over the world will sharpen their heads and flock to the Binjiang Industrial Park in Ruicheng after receiving the news.

At that time, even if Chen Hao's data level is brushed to 99, it is estimated that he will not be able to stop the pressure from all mankind.

Therefore, when the drawings were decentralized, Chen Hao directly marked the [electromagnetic levitation module] with the size of 4 square bricks inside the car body with words such as non-detachable.

It's just that this trick is comparable to a turtle method of covering up his ears and stealing the bell, although it is to confuse Zhang Ming, the company's executives.

But when it was close to mass production, Chen Hao was dumbfounded!

Because according to the production formula of [electromagnetic levitation technology] given by the system, in addition to using a raw material called "iron-based superconductor", the [electromagnetic levitation module] that wants to mass produce the standard requires a large amount of rare earth element - thulium to be doped in the module.

For the procurement of iron-based superconductors, Chen Hao didn't put much thought into it.

After many inquiries, Chen Hao found that this superconductor discovered by the island people in 06 years was successfully developed by a certain Da Niu surnamed Ma from the Institute of Electrical Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences a few years ago, and even formed a large scale of mass production.

Institute of Electrical Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, does the name of this unit look familiar?

It was when Chen Hao used the identity of a doctor of military industry to share the battery technology with the electrotechnical research institute of [graphene battery] before!

With the super friendship of sharing [graphene battery technology], Chen Hao naturally contacted Director Liu of the Electrical Engineering Research Institute and sent an order for iron-based superconductors with a large number of demands.

As for how big it is?

Hehe!

When did the turtle buy goods?

A full 50 billion!

And it is a cash settlement, and there is no arrears!

Receiving Chen Hao's terrifying order, Director Liu of the Electrician Research Institute was naturally taken aback.

You must know that the Electrical Research Institute under the name of their Huaguo Academy of Sciences has just mass-produced [iron-based superconductors] not long ago. The annual shipment of [iron-based superconductors] is only about 100 tons, and it is a little tight to meet the orders of major domestic research institutions. Chen Hao is good, directly 50000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

However, after receiving this large order of 5 billion yuan, the leaders of all levels of the Electrical Research Institute were not sloppy at all, and agreed without saying a word.

You want to!

That's 5 billion in cash!

At present, when the domestic scientific research institutions purchase advanced materials from brother units, which one is not in arrears, and can pay in installments.

Some poor R&D units are even more open-mouthed, sticking out their tongues, waiting for the funds from above to feed them every month!

Chen Hao is good, not to mention the big order, or according to the usual nature of the turtle, pay half of the payment in advance to show the sincerity of his purchase.

In the face of such a large order with plenty of oil and water, as well as such a buyer with a little convulsion, the Electrical Engineering Research Institute was naturally full of joy in signing a "humiliating" contract for production. In the blink of an eye, he took the 2.5 billion payment paid by Chen Hao in advance, and announced that he would further expand the production line of [iron-based superconductors].

……

After solving the supply of raw materials for [iron-based superconductors], Chen Hao asked about the sales of rare earth element thulium.

It's just that it's okay not to inquire, as soon as he finished inquiring, Chen Hao's face began to look ugly.

It turns out that this rare earth [thulium] has long been widely used in high-intensity power generation light sources, lasers, high-temperature superconductors and other front-end technology fields.

The market can be said to be a bit in short supply!

According to the existing rare earth market price, the price per kilogram of [thulium] fluctuates around 3,900 yuan.

After seeing such a quotation, even Chen Hao, who is worth hundreds of billions, is a little unable to look at it directly.

Because according to the manufacturing formula of [Electromagnetic Levitation Technology], each square brick-sized [Electromagnetic Levitation Module] requires 2 kg of [Thulium].

A total of 4 [electromagnetic levitation modules] for a car will cost at least 8 kilograms of [thulium], with a total manufacturing cost of more than 30,000 yuan.

You know, that's not even counting the loss caused by the defect rate!

As far as money is concerned, Chen Hao has no problem.

When your [Future Auto] is listed, are you still afraid that you won't be able to make money in the 100-billion-level car market?

But the problem is, it's not something you can buy if you want to.

Rare earth resources are strictly controlled national reserve resources for every country. Whether it is mining or selling, it must be approved by the relevant departments.

As for the annual output of thulium, even Huaguo, which is known as a rare earth power, is only 1,000 tons.

Even if Chen Hao is not short of money, and the [thulium] ore that is now circulating on the market is all rounded, the [future car] that can be built is only 120,000 units.

With such a low annual output, in the face of the world's 90 million automobile production capacity, it can almost be said that it cannot afford to make a little wave.

For an international company like [Future Technology], this number is not enough to see!

You must know that when Apple's 5S was strangled in the cradle, [Future Technology] shipped 20 million [A1 mobile phones] in one go, covering almost any corner of the world.

With the success of smartphones, the newly launched [Future Car] can't be said to have weakened the momentum, right?

So after making a few phone calls, and by the way, after hearing about the low annual output of rare earth [thulium], Chen Hao's face that should have been full of joy began to gradually become sad.

"Where are you going to get a bunch of thulium mines?"

"This thing is still controlled everywhere, and if you want to buy it in large quantities from the market, you need the relevant licenses. ”

"I don't know if the system mall can refresh a batch?"
