For the alliance leader to be so coquettish, I reward and add more, and I still owe a change.

How fast is the Green Goblin skateboard accelerating to 100 km/h?

This question, whether in the movies of the previous life or in the comics of the original book, is not covered in detail. But after Wen Ming finished his 'daydreaming', he knew this data.

1.1 seconds.

That's an incredible number for a car, and even if it could be done, it wouldn't be done because it was faster than a human could react.

The reason why the Green Goblin skateboard is able to do it so fast is not only because its energy source is nuclear, but also because its propulsion system is energy propulsion. Moreover, the Green Goblin itself also has a reaction speed far beyond that of a normal person, and can even be compared to Spider-Man with spider sense, so he can use this extreme speed.

But in addition to the advanced energy supply system and propulsion system, the transmission used by the Green Goblin skateboard is also the key to the key.

Otherwise, in close combat, the speed cannot be retracted freely, and it is simply looking for death. You don't even need Spider-Man to do it, you can kill yourself.

And this is also Wenming's confidence in solving Tesla's technical dilemma.

"Our solution is to increase the cost of the gearbox and replace the thyristors with more advanced and more expensive IGBTs, which are insulated-gate bipolar transistors," Zeff said. There is also a downside to this, which is that the performance of the vehicle part is sacrificed. ”

"In the original design, the Tesla Roadster, which we have just launched, should be able to accelerate to 100 kilometers in 3 seconds and have a range of 450 kilometers. But now, it accelerates to 100 km/h in 3.7 seconds and has a range of only 320 km. ”

"Of course, we have also set a record of 501 kilometers with the Tesla Roadster, but the premise of setting this record has a lot to do with the driving environment."

The difference between 3 seconds and 3.7 seconds does not seem to be much, but it is two realms, and the normal cruising range is only 320 kilometers, which is not a problem at all for a normal car. But at present, the number of charging piles established by Tesla in the United States is not large, even if many users have installed charging piles in their garages.

But the range of 320 kilometers means that their Tesla can't go far, which is really a big problem for a car.

Zeff continued: "Actually, the biggest problem is the cost. Because of our original design, the Tesla Roadster should have cost $70,000 and the price was $100,000. But now, the cost has risen to $120,000, so ......"

After understanding these problems, Wen Ming did not start to solve the problem on the spot, because Mark Zuckerberg was still accompanying him. In fact, before coming to Tesla, he had already conducted relevant experiments on Jurassic Island, and it took seven days to solve the Tesla Roadster problem.

"I'm curious to know how users reacted when we started compensating them for the $10,000 they had."

A week ago, Wen Ming arranged for Cage to come to Tesla to start doing these jobs.

After talking about the technical problems, Zev replied with a sigh of relief: "Of course the customers are very happy, in fact, except for some customers who refused to buy at the time, the customers who have already bought the car really like our Tesla's design style and product concept." Of course, they were happy to accept this windfall. ”

"And, according to our return visit records, they have expressed a very strong support for this change in our Tesla strategy. There are also some pre-order customers who have refused to buy the Tesla Roadster before, because of our action, they have once again made a purchase request. ”

Wen Ming shook his head and said, "It's not for sale, from now on, until we solve the technical problems, not a single car is allowed to be sold anymore." ”

When he visited the research laboratory just now, Wen Ming saw a lot of professional equipment, which was fully able to support him to solve the gearbox and other technical problems. In this case, he would be stupid if he paid $20,000 for each car to sell.

Zev asked puzzledly: "Boss, but we have prepared 1,200 quantities of Tesla Roadster manufacturing materials and started mass production, if we don't sell them, we will really lose a lot." ”

One costs $120,000, and the cost of 1,200 cars is $144 million, which is really a big loss for Tesla, which was previously valued at only $500 million, and can even directly declare bankruptcy and collapse.

But is Wen Ming short of this money?

He's not bad, and besides, those materials are not just thrown away.

"I'm going to spend a couple of days redesigning the Tesla Roadster, and once the gearbox issues and other technical issues are resolved, you're going to start rebuilding the Tesla Roadster. Then, it goes on sale again. ”

Wen Ming's words made the scene instantly quiet, whether it was Mark Zuckerberg, who had been watching, or Zev and Cage. As for those Tesla technicians, they are even more confused.

Zefu was about to speak, but was directly interrupted by Wen Ming.

He will give his subordinates a great deal of authority, but as long as it is what he decides, then his subordinates must strictly enforce it. No one can change this.

"I've prepared a list and I hope to have everything I need ready before the sun goes down today. Also, everyone in the tech department needs to work overtime tonight. ”

After asking Lilith, who had been following, to hand over the list to Zef, Wen Ming left Tesla with Mark Zuckerberg.

Just send Mark Zuckerberg away, of course.

"When I solve the problem here, let's go to Facebook."

Mark Zuckerberg stopped talking, but after all, he didn't ask Wen Ming's confidence where it came from, or rather, he dispelled the idea of dissuading Wen Ming from commanding indiscriminately.

"I'm going to throw a dinner party to introduce you to the big guys in Silicon Valley."

Wen Ming politely declined and said: "It is definitely necessary to know them, but let's wait until the real Tesla electric sports car appears." ”

Sending off the skeptical Mark Zuckerberg, Wen Ming returned to Tesla's research room again.

And in the process, Cage pulls Lilith into a nearby corner, and then can't wait......

"What happened in the week I've been gone?"

Cage asked with a confused expression, "Does the boss know what he just said?" ”

Lilith had already handed the list to Zef, and said helplessly: "You have such a good relationship with the boss, why don't you just ask the boss?" ”

Cage smiled awkwardly and said, "Just because I have a good relationship in private doesn't mean that I can question him casually at work." ”

Lilith shrugged her shoulders and said, "I don't know what the boss has been up to for the past week, he's either gone to see the spiders or locked himself in the lab and banged." ”

Cage said with a skeptical expression, "Could it be ...... He's been working on the technical aspects of the gearbox all week? ”

Lilith noticed Wen Ming's security personnel coming in, hurriedly greeted him, and threw down a sentence: "Why is it impossible?" When he was developing the iPad, he locked himself in the lab for three days, and of course, he took the time to look at velociraptors, not spiders. ”

Lilith greeted Wen Ming, who had just come in, while Cage retreated in defeat from the inexplicable expressions of the researchers next to him and went to Wen Ming's side.

"Boss, are you really confident?"

Cage still asked a little uneasily, but at this time there were only Lilith and security personnel around them, and there were no Tesla's original employees.

"If ......"

Wen Ming smiled and asked, "If I didn't do it, would I have to stay in Tesla's lab all the time?" ”
