Meng Qian started with the electric vehicles he was interested in, advanced permanent magnet motors, super batteries, and intelligent unmanned driving technology, which made people feel a strong sense of the future - not to mention that he has a strong automotive group with strong technical strength, and he can do what he wants!

There's nothing cooler for car fans than this.

For days on end, he immersed himself in this area of research. To be precise, he handed it over to Xiao V in the form of dictation and drawings, and it simulated and calculated according to Meng Qian's requirements to be accurate to the best result. It is equivalent to the degree of engineering drawing, which can be taken to the extent of fact.

He is now confident that Audi will take the lead in the new energy vehicle market.

China, which has a very strong recognition and consumption power for Audi, has caught up with the government's vigorous promotion of the construction of the new energy industry, and Audi has also taken advantage of political convenience...... It's just the right time, the right place! After the consumer problems of electric vehicles are solved, there are still some problems when you think about it.

For example, electricity resources.

Because of China's huge population base, the demand for electricity is very terrifying, and the proportion of thermal power generation accounts for 75%, although electric vehicles are environmentally friendly and pollution-free, but the final output of electricity - thermal power generation is not environmentally friendly. It does not rely mainly on nuclear power, as France and the United States do.

It can be said that China's current vigorous development of the new energy market is actually under a very heavy pressure, but it has to do -- in the face of the Western countries' clamping on oil, China must get rid of the influence on oil and pay more attention to the development of new energy than other countries.

If you want China's electric vehicle market to prosper, you still have to solve the problem of the source of electricity.

Nuclear energy? Meng Qian thought of this answer, China's nuclear fission power generation technology is quite good. But the proportion is still very small, and there is a certain danger of nuclear fission. Such as Chernobyl, or more recently Japan. More advanced and secure than it. What about nuclear fusion?

Nuclear fusion is definitely the perfect energy source for the future, first of all, the safety factor is very high, the neutrons released by nuclear fusion are easier to control, and the nuclear fusion of the helium-3 reaction does not release neutrons, which means that it is pure and pollution-free!

Secondly, the materials are abundant, and the amount of uranium and plutonium required for fission is very small on the earth, and it is strictly controlled by the international community. But the raw materials for nuclear fusion, which can be extracted from seawater, are also available on the moon, and are almost inexhaustible.

Everyone understands the benefits, how to implement them?

Meng Qian does have a plan, but he has to consider the reality: China does not allow private nuclear research!

Obviously, it is impossible for him to conduct experiments in this area in China, and the technology he has mastered, even if artificial intelligence is involved in the analysis, needs to be tested.

In the United States, private research is allowed. Large and small energy companies, fund venture capital companies are involved in nuclear fusion research, and there are some well-known technology tycoons among the investors.

Meng Qian's conditions are ripe for conducting experiments in the United States, but in light of reality, the United States and China are not at odds. The prevention of core technology is quite serious.

Controlled fusion power generation is supposed to benefit mankind, but as a cutting-edge technology, it is controlled by Western countries. If it is not allowed to be exported to China, it will not achieve Meng Qian's goal.

Come and think about it. In the end, "politics" is a thing that harms people!

Xiao V has only one answer to the question and the existing conditions: "Unless you can unify the camps of the Eastern and Western countries." Technology is what truly benefits everyone. ”

"There's no solution to this." Meng Qian shook his head, how could he have this ability?

"It's just very unlikely." Little V added.

"Forget it." Meng Qian almost gave up, "Even if I want to engage in nuclear fusion research, I still have to engage in superconductor research and more advanced computer research first. Sense field, if I don't know I'll be closely monitored, there will be people staring at me everywhere I go, beware of leaks. ”

"Superconductors? Quantum computers? Little V understood.

"Complicated enough, right? There is no such energy - for now. Meng Qian gave up, and waited until he had a way, or a more stable environment, and then studied it.

"You can accumulate this technology first, and then split the accumulation." Little V's purpose is to solve problems for him, and he has been analyzing the real environment.

Meng Qian thought about it and agreed: "It may be okay to start with the computer part, and it can also improve the computing efficiency of artificial intelligence, which is a good thing." ”

"It's been recorded." Little V got the job done.

"Cool." Meng Qian was very satisfied with it.

……

For these things, Meng Qian personally went to the United States to arrange tasks.

He started with electric vehicles, and asked Audi to add a R&D department to the California design center, which is dedicated to electric motors and intelligent driving, and when the foundation is perfect, he can hand over the technology and realize it in reality.

Plans for Computing, by Madeleine. Rosenstein has research on graphene and quantum computing, and may be able to borrow it; Therefore, he asked the VR company to set up a hardware development subsidiary to prepare for the arrival of the intelligent era in the future.

On the second day of his arrival in the Bay Area, Meng Qian also met Lamborghini's hybrid model, which is based on the Huracan model, uses a gasoline engine and two electric motors, and has an output of more than 900 horsepower, and can accelerate to 100 kilometers in less than three seconds.

It's still a concept car, but Meng Qian drove it!

This is the biggest perk of being a boss, and with the permission of the California Department of Transportation, this Lamborghini hybrid sports car with a license plate rumbled on the road, from San Jose to San Francisco, and back in a circle along the Bay Area, gaining countless attention.

What is it like to test drive a concept car...... It's like traveling to the future.

After driving back, Meng Qian also gave a lot of positive comments, the company will accelerate the development of pure electric vehicles based on the new energy strategy of the Audi Group, and seize market opportunities.

Because the current conditions are very ripe, the biggest problem of batteries, has been breaking through, and Wells Fargo can specifically provide Audi with batteries with a larger capacity.

After Meng Qian looked at some in-house drawings of pure electric models, he also had a wish: he wanted the company to build a unique pure electric supercar for him.

Anyway, Lamborghini will definitely take this path, and the supercar built for him now can be considered as a follow-up pure electric vehicle, such as chassis, motor, aerodynamic structure, etc.

As the controller of the enterprise, Meng Qian's request is equal to an order.

Of course, he also took into account the group's operation strategy, capital and other issues, the development of a new model requires a huge amount of money, in addition to the Audi Group's capital investment, Meng Qian plans to invest another $5 billion after the listing of Wells Fargo Group next year, increasing the Audi Group's stake to 60%.

Things went smoothly to the next step: design.

The main design work was carried out by the California Design Center, and Meng Qian was currently faced with a multiple-choice question.

Since it is a supercar built according to its own requirements, it must be distinctive. Meng Qian first gave it the code name: X. It will be a one-of-a-kind car in the world.

It has to have strong performance, according to his permanent magnet mechanism, the output of the two motors should exceed 1000 horsepower, the car must be at a top speed of more than 360, and the shape should have a futuristic sense of the concept car, enough to pull the wind - after all, aerodynamics is Ferrari's specialty, not Rambo's.

Again, the battery must be reduced to about 300 kilograms, and the mass of the whole vehicle cannot exceed two tons. For a supercar, a weight of 1.6 tons is the most suitable, but considering the battery range, it is cumbersome...... Maybe he could use INE's new technology?

It has only one car in the world, and with the most cutting-edge battery technology, there is no need to be afraid of leaks. Feasible! Meng Qian made up his mind, and then it was his turn to look at the most important aspects of the appearance party, scissor door standard, artificial intelligence, HUD (head-up display) were also taken into account.

And what about the rest?

Meng Qian pondered, although the above can be realized, it is enough to pull the wind.

But he also wanted something better, something that would make people shine...... He went through a lot of drawings of concept cars, until one day, he saw a supercar from the last century: the McLaren F1. It dawned on him! He needed a three-seater supercar because of his personal circumstances.

McLaren F1 is a typical three-seater supercar, with the driver's seat in the middle and the co-pilot on both sides. Right-hugging the fun of driving! The two co-pilots must be sisters, so the seats can be designed to be smaller, and the body can be appropriately widened, and the classic is reborn!

Meng Qian told the designer about this idea.

The other party also thinks that the three-seater supercar is very creative, and Meng Qian has a lot of avant-garde ideas for dream cars, they talked for a long time, and the designer restored Meng Qian's ideas on the drawings - this means that the unique X has ushered in the moment of manufacturing!
