Chapter 2601 Self-driving taxi
Intimidated by his father, Yang Wei returned home every day and lived with Ye Qianqian again.
Yang Geyong doesn’t care about those things, what kind of knots are there for me to sleep with? I just need to sleep with you. If I don’t believe it, what’s the matter? Will sleep with you every day not solve it?
For the first time, Ye Qianqian thought her father was very wise. Although the method was simple and crude, it was really effective!
Now the two of them fight for three hundred rounds every day, and Ye Qianqian feels refreshed every day when she goes to work.
She was already anxious, but now she is even more decisive.
After the two took office, they did not take any major measures. Liu Junken had just expanded the city, so they could maintain stability at present.
However, for electric vehicles that have just begun, they still provide some preferential policies. After all, they are emerging industries and are energy-saving and environmentally friendly. This must be supported.
However, they also issued a hard and rigid rule to the battery company when using it, that is, to study the recycling and decomposition methods of old batteries as soon as possible, otherwise the pollution caused will be a big problem.
I have to say that these two girls are very forward-looking, and the biggest obstacle to trams in the future is the pollution problem of old batteries.
If the solution is not developed as soon as possible, it will become a big problem sooner or later.
For example, the recycling of various small batteries today is still a difficult problem.
In fact, the battery factory has thought about this problem since its start of production. This problem is not that troublesome to solve.
One is that it can be recycled and reused, which is the so-called renovation. This renovation is not a counterfeit or shoddy, but instead replaces the unusable parts, which are no different from the new ones.
The materials that really cannot be reused can be redecomposed and restored to the original raw materials.
This thing is like scrap iron. What can it become if it is melted again? The reason why it causes pollution is nothing more than the inadequate recycling work.
The Warrior Electric Vehicle Factory can recycle all the used batteries, and if you don’t hand them back, that’s why you are.
The reason why the city attaches so much importance to it is because the tram is actually technically in the battery.
The battery life is the important reason that affects the development of trams. In fact, the first electric car appeared far earlier than the earliest gas cars. The history of electric cars is full of innovations in four-wheel transportation.
We began to talk about it in the 1830s, when the Scotsman Robert Anderson invented the motorized carriage, which was built between 1832 and 1839.
The battery (original battery) was not yet charged, so it was more like a living room magic ("Look! It's neither a horse nor a cow, but it can move!"), rather than a transportation device.
Another Scot, Robert Davidson from Aberdeen, built a prototype of an electric locomotive in 1837.
In 1841, a larger, better version was demonstrated, which could travel 1.5 miles per hour and tow 6 tons.
Then it needs to replace the battery. This impressive performance has left railway workers panic (which they think would pose a threat to their work to maintain the steam engine), and they destroyed Davidson's devilish machine, which he named Galvani.
In 1859, rechargeable batteries were introduced, making the idea of electric vehicles more feasible.
Around 1884, inventor Thomas Parker helped deploy electric trams and built prototypes of electric vehicles in the UK.
In 1890, William Morrison, a Scottish-born chemist who lives in Des Moines, Iowa, applied for a patent for an electric carriage he made around 1887.
According to the Des Moines Chronicle, it appeared in the city parade in 1888.
It comes with front-wheel drive, 4 horsepower, and a reported top speed of 20 mph, with 24 battery units that require charging every 50 miles.
Morrison's self-propelled carriage caused a sensation at the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago (also known as the famous World Columbus Fair). Morrison himself was more interested in battery than mobility, but he inspired the imagination of other inventors.
Pedro and Henry G. Morris used battery-powered street cars and vessels technology and in 1894
Years patented. At first, it was heavy and slow (like a tram, with steel "tires" and 1600 pounds of batteries).
Later their Electrobats gradually used pneumatic tires and lighter materials, so by 1896, their rear-wheel steering car used two 1.1 kW engines, traveling 25 miles at a top speed of 20 mph.
In 1896, another electric car from Electrobat and Riker won a series of five-mile sprints with gasoline Duryea.
Morris and Salom established the company that year and entered the "money-making" stage of successful entrepreneurship.
They built several electric Hansen taxis, competed with the carriages that were serving in New York at the time, and sold the idea to Isaac L. Rice, who set up the Electric Vehicle Company (EVC) in New Jersey.
He in turn attracted investors and partners of large sums of capital, and by the early 20th century they had operated more than 600 electric taxis in New York, with smaller fleets of Boston, Baltimore and other eastern cities as well.
In New York, the downtime required to charge a battery is solved by converting the ice rink into a battery exchange station where a taxi can drive in, replace the used battery with the charged battery, and then drive away.
But like many startups, it expanded too quickly, with unexpected conflicts between investors and partners, and the entire taxi business went bankrupt in 1907.
Even so, electric vehicles have not withdrawn from the stage of history. After countless changes, they eventually lost to fuel vehicles because of battery life.
The Warrior Group's breakthrough in battery is undoubtedly groundbreaking, so even if the branch factory can be established anywhere, the battery factory must be placed in the Military Reclamation City.
Because the three cores of electric vehicles are nothing more than batteries, motors and electronic controls.
There is basically no secret between motors and electronic controls, and the most advanced technology of Warrior trams is battery and intelligent networking technology.
Others will definitely not be able to learn smart Internet connection. There are too many techniques involved in this kind of thing, so you can’t read it.
However, if battery technology is put outside for production, it is really possible that it will be stolen by others.
After driving an electric car with Yang Geyong last time, Ye Yuze has been driving this car now, mainly because the driving feels more comfortable than the fuel car.
Now, a series of technologies of Mr. Ni and his team have begun to be applied to electric cars, which is even more icing on the cake.
For example, autonomous driving, this technology has been experimenting for a while and is very mature. Li Lindong sent Ye Yuze another car and asked him to test drive.
Yang Geyong came after hearing the news, and the two got into the car curiously.
After Li Lindong sat in the driver's seat and set a goal, he started chatting with the two of them.
Then the car started to walk by itself, and the route chosen was very accurate. It was very standard to give way to pedestrians along the way, and to abide by traffic rules.
Yang Geyong was chatting with Ye Yuze, but he didn't take this autonomous driving seriously, but he was completely stunned throughout the way.
He and Ye Yuze are both good at driving skills, but there are inevitable times when there are violations. This autonomous driving is like the most regular driver and will not make any mistakes.
In fact, traffic jams are often caused by people who do not abide by traffic rules. They all want to rush forward, but they take all the roads they should not be occupied, and no one can leave.
Even if you encounter a car accident, if other vehicles follow the traffic rules, there will generally be no traffic jam.
If all the cars on the streets go like this in the future, let alone traffic jams, they will not even be able to get into a car accident.
Both of them were shocked, and Ye Yuze couldn't help but ask:
"How long has this kind of car been tested?"
Li Lindong smiled proudly: "It's been almost half a year. As soon as this kind of technical tram came out, Mr. Ni and the others developed it. The reason why they have not been used in cars is because they have to conduct safety experiments."
Ye Yuze nodded and didn't say anything. He was thinking about something.
After a while, he suddenly said to Yang Geyong:
"What if you want to promote this kind of taxi in New York?"
Yang Geyong slapped his thighs excitedly: "Okay, those grandchildren don't work hard all day long. If you don't go here or not, you have to spend money on the car, so you should have changed them long ago!"
Ye Yuze nodded: "Okay, then that's what we do. Let's help them turn the trend around and let them know what it means to serve the people."
Li Lindong suddenly interrupted: "Mr. Ye, I think we should take the lead in implementing the military reclamation city. Only with a model can we be convincing!"
Ye Yuze shook his head: "It's not easy for taxi drivers. Don't smash other people's jobs. If you don't smash the money, just smash the money. Anyway, their benefits are relatively high."
Li Lindong was silent, wondering how to answer this?
However, Yang Geyong didn't think so much and said something indifferently:
"Just arrange other things for them. If we go to work in the Military Reclamation City, we earn more than driving a taxi, so we don't have to work so hard."
When Ye Yuze heard that it was really the case, he ordered Li Lindong:
"You go to the city to have a talk and talk directly to the leaders of the traffic management department. Don't use my banner."
Li Lindong nodded: "Don't worry, Mr. Ye, the Warrior Group has always been in a regular manner in its work and never surpasses it."
Yang Geyong was a little confused: "This is all a good thing, why can't you find it? I'll call Qianqian."
Ye Yuze stopped him: "We are enterprises, they are governments. Normal things must be handled according to normal channels so as not to make a statement to some people."
Yang Geyong stopped talking. He was just a simple mind and was not stupid. Naturally, he knew what Ye Yuze cared about?
Since its establishment, the reason why Military Reclamation City has developed so rapidly is because the decision-making power has always been in the hands of its own people.
If you are in power by someone with ulterior motives, you don’t know whether to seek personal gain or not, but it will definitely hinder the development of the Military Reclamation City. This is very fatal.
Just like in the early stages of reform, enterprises suffered losses and went bankrupt. The reason was not workers or technology, but the rigid or incompetent thinking of the company leaders.
Otherwise, why are so many township enterprises rising rapidly? In terms of equipment and technology, what do they compare with state-owned enterprises?
A group of farmers who have never been exposed to any equipment can have ever worked with workers who have been influenced by them since childhood?
Therefore, since its inception, Junken City has paid special attention to this aspect, paying attention to talent introduction and hiring professional managers.
Especially government agencies, they will never interfere with the autonomy of enterprises.
For example, the Warrior Group has always had half of the government's shares. But they never interfere in business matters, so the group can develop like this.
If you come to a leader who likes to point fingers, you can go to the Warrior Group to express your opinions when you have nothing to do, and then meet a group of subordinates who like to flatter you, it is really hard to say what the Warrior Group is like.
Although it is difficult for a company to develop and requires a long time to work hard for many people, if you want to destroy it, it is enough for one person to do so. There are many such examples in China.
Ye Yuze had no intention of interfering in politics, but he would never allow the group to be destroyed, so he did a lot of things for the country for free.
But he also paid great attention to some things, that is, he would never get too close to any official, even if the official was his own relative.
Because there are countless people in the warrior group now staring at it, and there are many people from the power center. Once they get the chance, they will definitely jump out.
