Chapter 312: Speculation
"What?"
"Hydrogen airbags? Are they crazy?"
"It's just that hydrogen air sacs are very easy to explode."
"They seem to have built a lot of airships, aren't they afraid of accidents?"
The presidents and managers suddenly began to talk in disbelief.
"This is a fact, otherwise their airships would not have been able to fly so high, in addition, I checked the trading volume of international helium producers, there was no obvious change last year and this year, Dongtang itself does not have any helium minerals, most of the helium is imported, so many airships, the international helium market cannot be fluctuating at all." Akio Toyoda came up with data to prove it.
Hiroo Mitsui looked at the data, touched his chin and asked, "How do they ensure that hydrogen doesn't explode?"
"I don't know how to keep hydrogen from exploding, but their method of compressing hydrogen has to make us pay attention." After Akio Toyoda finished speaking, he opened the multimedia and played several videos.
In these videos, they were all filmed near the airship station, and I saw those airships that descended to the ground, those bulging airbags, instantly contracted without a trace.
"In these videos, we can see that their airship airbags contracted instantly, but when they took off again, they did not add gas, and the airbags inflated again, which means that they were inflated again due to the very strong hydrogen compression technology." Akio Toyoda explained again.
"But what does this have to do with launch vehicles?" Kudo asked suspiciously.
"I suspect that they have developed a technology that can quickly fix hydrogen, and they are applying this hydrogen fixation technology to launch vehicles." Akio Toyoda voiced his guess.
"Solid hydrogen-fueled rockets?"
"Is this possible?"
"No, according to the launch vehicles announced by the Galaxy Consortium so far, the possibility of solid hydrogen fuel is very high, otherwise it is impossible to explain the problem of their launch vehicle specific impulse."
"What I guess is solid hydrogen fuel, whether it is from the launch vehicle volume-to-weight ratio or the ultra-high specific impulse, only solid hydrogen fuel is the most compliant." Akio Toyoda continued to analyze.
Everyone was shocked by the technology of the Galaxy Foundation, they did not expect that the technology of the Galaxy Foundation would reach such a point.
Akio Toyoda said a guess that he himself least wanted to be true:
"Whether it's an airship or a launch vehicle, I can ignore these, but their hydrogen application technology has to make me pay attention."
"You're saying that Galaxy Technology has hydrogen fuel cell technology?" Hiroo Mitsui clearly understood the meaning.
"Exactly, I suspect that Galaxy Technology has mastered mature hydrogen fuel cell technology, and the reason why it is not taken out is to deal with us."
At present, the world's new energy vehicles mainly take two routes, the first is battery electric vehicles, and the second is fuel cell vehicles.
Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, and GM were previously on the hydrogen fuel cell route.
Toyota, in particular, has mass-produced hydrogen fuel cell vehicles and has sold more than 50,000 hydrogen fuel cell vehicles worldwide.
Of course, these hydrogen fuel cell vehicles are mainly sold to North America, Western Continent and their home country of the sun.
"Now General Motors and Galaxy Technology, in the battery electric car non-stop fighting, General Motors has suffered heavy losses, if this time the Super 500 battery is stillborn, I'm afraid General Motors will not be able to hold on." Akio Toyoda said with a heavy heart.
Other people also suddenly felt a pang in their hearts, Akio Toyoda was not wrong, General Motors was almost desperate for the Super 500 lithium battery.
Huge R&D spending, and now a large amount of money is being invested in the construction of battery factories and electric vehicle factories, plus General Motors itself is losing money.
If you can't turn over this time, it's really likely that you'll have to get a lunch box.
"Zhangnan, are you planning to continue on the hydrogen fuel cell route?" Hiroo Mitsui asked.
Akio Toyoda shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Now whether it is battery electric or hydrogen fuel cells, it may be blocked by Galaxy Technology." ”
"Do you want to sit still?" Hiroo Mitsui asked rhetorically.
"Of course not, now that General Motors has invited us to pass, we have to pass, but about cooperation, delay the time." Akio Toyoda obviously has his own little ninety-nine.
"Are you saying wait and see what happens, and wait for Raytheon Group to launch a new battery?" As soon as Hiroo Mitsui heard it, he knew Akio Toyoda's plan.
Akio Toyoda nodded.
"But if Raytheon Battery doesn't have a new battery by then, will it offend General Motors?" Kudo reminded him.
"Rest assured, we are not saying that we will not cooperate with them, but we are just delaying time, if Raytheon Group does not launch a new battery in September, then we will choose to cooperate with GM." An old fox like Akio Toyoda does things without leakage.
"Hmmm! This matter really needs to be cautious, Zhang Nan, you can use hydrogen fuel cells as an excuse to show hesitation. Hiroo Mitsui added.
"I will."
Meanwhile.
The Fuji Foundation's plan is the same as that of the Mitsui Foundation, which is to wait and see what happens.
But the Mitsubishi consortium to which Mitsubishi Motors and Honda are located are different.
Mitsubishi Motors President Minori Iwaki and Honda Rateshin, President of Honda Motors, were also holding a meeting of the Mitsubishi Foundation's managers.
Yan Qi really said straight to the point: "What do you think of GM's invitation?"
"It's just trying to pull us into the chariot." Honda Lixin sneered.
"Lixin, are you going to cooperate with them?"
"The trapped beasts are just fighting, they are like prey that fall into a hunter's trap, the more they struggle, the faster they die." After Honda Lixin finished speaking, he took a sip of bitter tea.
"Then you can't save face, right?"
"Send a few people over, delay the time first, and soon they will be unable to protect themselves." Honda Lixin waved his hand and said.
"Why are you so sure that Lixin, they will soon be unable to protect themselves?" Yan Qi really squinted his eyes and stared at each other.
"An inside message from a friend of mine in the Eastern Tang Dynasty." Honda Lixin replied lightly.
Suddenly, everyone present stared at Honda Lixin with unkind eyes.
"Have you been getting too close to the Eastern Tang people lately?" Yan Qi asked in a gloomy voice.
"Yes and how! I can't watch Honda just leave the stage. Honda Lixin said unceremoniously.
"You're betrayal!"
"Traitor!"
"Yaga Yalu!"
Touch! Honda Lixin slapped the table hard, then stood up and said:
"What's wrong with clinging to the strong? Can't you see that the rice grain family is already declining? Since we can take refuge in the Mi Li family, we can't bow down to the Eastern Tang people. ”
"Lixin, are you crazy? Don't forget that the security forces are still on our soil. Yan Qi really roared loudly.
"Joke, who came out of the glories in the ashes? Since they will quit at Colliers, they will probably quit here with us as well. Honda retorted.
Suddenly everyone fell silent, of course they knew this possibility, but if they wanted to bow down to the Eastern Tang people, it would be difficult for them to accept it for a while.
"Don't fool yourself, I've decided to fully cooperate with the Galaxy Foundation, you can do it yourself!" After Honda finished speaking, he brushed his sleeves and left.
Watching Honda Lixin walk away, everyone looked at each other.
