My science and technology museum - Chapter 143 Lingsi Automobile Chip
“I’m not old enough to walk yet. I feel much younger when I often come into contact with young people like you.”
Pei Hongyin didn’t take Xu Lei’s words to heart. He replied in a loud voice and then found a seat to sit down. He looked completely dissatisfied with his old age.
See this.
Chen Shihe quickly stepped forward and pulled out a chair for him.
Xu Lei knew the temper of this industry leader very well, so he didn’t say anything more.
In fact, the operating model of the research center is different from that of the company. They only need to submit a technical summary research progress report once a month, and the rest of the time is basically spent in the laboratory.
After all, scientific research is a very boring profession.
Especially when you experience repeated failures in the research and development of a certain technology, you will face tremendous psychological pressure.
Some weak-willed people may have an emotional breakdown and quit the profession.
Therefore, anyone who can persevere basically has a true love for scientific research.
I like the feeling of being in a laboratory doing research.
Only when you devote yourself to it will you not feel bored.
On the contrary, it feels like the cells in the body are excited.
However, because Pei Hongyin’s project is at a bottleneck and it is difficult to make a breakthrough in a short period of time, he likes to walk around the park as a way to exercise.
Occasionally, I would come in and listen to the regular company meetings.
But he won’t interrupt rashly.
Xu Lei was already accustomed to Pei Hongyin’s behavior. After everyone arrived, he announced that the meeting had officially begun.
Since the company’s most important projects at present are the battery production base, charging center and battery replacement station, Xu Lei took the lead in setting his sights on Jia Zhongjie next to him.
Then he asked:
“How is the battery production base project going? How long is it expected to be officially produced?”
Jia Zhongjie naturally did not dare to hesitate in the face of Xu Lei’s questions and quickly answered truthfully.
“According to the specific time given by Liu Gong, the three battery production bases are expected to be officially completed by the end of the month. If nothing unexpected happens, the production of solid-state batteries can start next month.”
Since becoming the vice president of Xingyuan Battery, Jia Zhongjie has also shown his abilities.
The three new bases and the production base in Binjiang City are managed in an orderly manner and are all in normal working order.
Jia Zhongjie’s report was much more than that. As soon as he finished speaking, he added again: “In addition, the production capacity of the Binjiang City production base has also reached the expected target value, and all the batteries ordered by Warwick have been delivered.”
Xu Lei knew that most of the production capacity of the solid-state battery production base in Binjiang City was used in the military industry. It was able to complete Huawei’s tens of millions of battery orders in a short period of time, thanks to Hu Xinren’s upgraded smart production line.
Otherwise, based on the initial production capacity, I might not be able to do anything well.
After hearing Jia Zhongjie’s answer, Xu Lei was very satisfied.
After a pause for a few seconds, the topic was brought back to the charging center and battery replacement station.
“How many charging centers and battery replacement stations have been built?”
“As of yesterday’s statistics, 1,356 charging centers of different specifications have been built, and the number of battery replacement stations has exceeded 10,000, and this number is still rising.”
When Jia Zhongjie said these words, he casually transmitted the data graph to the big screen in the office.
It is convenient for everyone to observe clearly and intuitively.
Xu Lei knows very well that charging centers and battery replacement stations must be used in solid-state power battery vehicles. At present, car brand companies have not yet obtained solid-state power batteries.
There are no solid-state power battery cars on the market.
So there is no need to worry too much about these two projects, at least in terms of time, it is completely sufficient.
Immediately afterwards.
Just as Xu Lei was hesitating who to ask next, Liang Fuxing took the initiative and said, “Mr. Xu, we have developed a brand new chip and need to report to you.”
“Yeah, let’s talk about it.”
Hearing what Liang Fuxing said, Xu Lei suddenly became interested and quickly responded.
And cast encouraging glances at Liang Fuxing.
Since the design department developed the Lingsi artificial intelligence chip, there has been no new action. The report Liang Fuxing presented at every regular meeting was also about the Yinglong chip design software and the Lingsi artificial intelligence chip.
Today it was actually said that a new chip has been developed, which is really eye-catching.
Xu Lei has high hopes for the design team that Liang Fuxing is responsible for. After all, the Lingsi artificial intelligence chip they developed alone has greatly improved Xingtong’s overall capabilities.
The direct effect is that less time is spent verifying certain theories and technologies.
This is not available elsewhere.
This is why Pei Hongyin chose to join the Future Science and Technology Research Institute.
Since Liang Fuxing can propose a new chip developed at the company’s regular meeting, it means that he should be relatively confident that this chip can surprise people.
How could Xu Lei not be interested in this situation?
soon.
Facing the attention of everyone, Liang Fuxing transferred the explanation content he produced to the conference room screen through a simple operation, and then began to explain it carefully.
The whole person looks confident.
“Following the launch of Lingsi artificial intelligence chip, we are launching Lingsi smart car chip this time.”
“This chip can greatly improve the performance of the car, ensure the safety of people in the car while driving, and perform power calculations for autonomous driving and many other functions.”
“If used in conjunction with our smart assistant Xingtong, it can completely achieve powerful car autonomy and truly give the car the ability to think and receive instructions.”
If the mobile phone chip is the brain of the mobile phone, then the car chip is the brain of the car.
In order for a car to drive normally and have superior capabilities, it often requires many chips to work at the same time. Especially after entering the informatization era, the demand for chips will be greater.
Even due to performance issues of automotive chips, automotive chips with originally low manufacturing costs have been sold to a very high price.
Liang Fuxing chose to develop automotive chips and obviously noticed the weaknesses in this area.
However, Xu Lei fell into deep thought.
If the Lingsi automotive chip developed by Liang Fuxing and his colleagues really has high performance and can catch up with overseas automotive chips, it will undoubtedly be a good thing.
And it can be produced by Loongson Group and sold to domestic automobile brands.
Improve the overall level of domestically produced automobiles.
It’s just that the intelligent assistant Xingtong, as the core existence of the company, will not rashly provide technical support to other companies.
To be honest, who wouldn’t want to own a car that looks like a mount in a science fiction movie and can appear next to the protagonist at any time. If Linsi Auto Chip and Star Pupil can really achieve this effect, Xu Lei really wants to create it.
After all, it’s just a matter of investing some money.
However, the most indispensable thing for future technology is money.
“If we want to build our own car brand, let’s wait and see.”
Xu Lei’s mind was running rapidly. Although a bold idea came to his mind, he put it aside for the time being.
Considering that the company has already laid out many projects, it may be confusing to produce cars before the results are officially seen. As the saying goes, it’s never too late to eat well. As long as the quality of Lingsi automotive chips mentioned by Liang Fuxing is strong enough, then it will be a party in the morning and a party in the evening. all the same.
After thinking about this clearly, Xu Lei signaled Liang Fuxing to continue talking.
Later, Liang Fuxing introduced the powerful capabilities of Lingsi automotive chips based on actual driving scenarios. It can be seen that they have indeed invested a lot of effort in this chip during this period.
However, it should be mentioned that because this Lingsi automotive chip has not yet been fully developed, it is unlikely to be put on the market in a short time.
But in the end, Xu Lei affirmed Liang Fuxing’s achievements and asked them to complete the chip as soon as possible.
The meeting goes here.
The remaining Lu Hongbo, Hange, Zhang Xia and others had nothing important to report, so they did not waste much time.
It didn’t take long for this routine meeting to end successfully.
Liang Fuxing was naturally very motivated after being encouraged and affirmed by Xu Lei. He returned to his department right after the meeting, preparing to lead the team to work overtime to complete the entire design of Lingsi automotive chips.
This will also help you enter the production process as quickly as possible.
at the same time.
When future technology lays out the battery market, Tesla is also actively preparing for the press conference.
…
Friday.
Modulus Industrial Zone.
As the online press conference was officially held, Deng Wan and Wu Kangsheng arrived at the venue very early in the morning, with visible smiles on their faces.
Obviously full of confidence in today’s press conference.
“After today’s press conference, this smart driving car will inevitably lead the development of the entire new energy vehicle industry. This kind of smart driving car that far exceeds industry technology cannot be made up of by just a few solid-state power batteries.”
Wu Kangsheng, who was standing in the background at this time, couldn’t help but feel excited when he thought that the Alpha he had developed would soon lead the development of the times and become the most advanced artificial intelligence.
What’s more important is that this time he can finally dominate the future technology.
Deng Wan, who was next to him, echoed with a smile on his face: “It was a very right choice to choose to cooperate with your company.”
“It’s a pity that those new energy vehicle brand companies that choose to use solid-state power batteries think that increasing their cruising range will compete with us for market share.”
“It’s absolutely ridiculous!”
When solid-state batteries first came out, Dengwan was a little worried because Tesla couldn’t use them.
Fear that the market share held by Truss will be taken away.
But after seeing this smart driving new energy vehicle created by Wu Kangsheng through artificial intelligence Alpha, his worries completely disappeared.
After all, this is different from the mobile phone industry. In the face of advanced technology, the advantage in battery life can be completely ignored.
No matter how the mileage is increased, charging will always be a problem, and it is destined to be unable to compare with traditional gasoline vehicles.
“Mr. Deng, it’s time for you to take the stage.”
Wu Kangsheng saw Deng Wan’s reaction and was very satisfied with it, and then smiled and proactively reminded him.
