He Xingzhou also added a video display. This was a conceptual model that he had made after discussing with the car designer.
"This is an ellipsoidal electromagnetic levitation car. It doesn't have tires or a steering wheel. There are soft sofas and a nice rug inside. Passengers can sit comfortably in the car to rest, play games, watch movies, and even drink tea.
"Because this car is fully autonomous, once it starts, it can float steadily on the road paved with magnetic materials, just 2-3 centimeters above the ground
"As long as the destination is determined, there is no need for any operation during the driving process, and it is all done by the driverless system.
"It can meet the daily riding, transportation and logistical functions of carrying people and goods. It is very convenient, and the driving speed can exceed the speed of sound
"If you really want to experience the fun of driving, you can also install an additional direction control system. You can use a traditional steering wheel, or even a game controller or an intelligent screen to control it."
The person who explained the video was Xu Zhilan. Her voice was clear, and her standard Mandarin was like that of a radio announcer.
After the video was played, He Xingzhou said, "The above is what we are going to make. Next, I will use a few episodes of the video to describe the manufacturing process.
"Today's first episode is about the production of batteries for electromagnetic levitation vehicles."
"As traditional lithium-ion batteries and semi-solid state batteries can not meet the energy output and endurance requirements of our electromagnetic levitation motors, we are collaborating with members of a battery research group to jointly develop a lithium-air battery."
"Its energy storage will be more than 20 times that of the current lithium-ion batteries."
"Next up is battery production..."
Of course, He Xingzhou couldn't finish the first video in one go. He shot it here first and handed the material to Xu Zhilan for editing.
After that, there were some scenes of the battery production process. The video wouldn't reveal the confidential technology, but He Xingzhou still shot a lot of useful information points.
Just a dozen days later, the battery research group in the lab sent some good news over.
"We've made it!" Yu Xing reported excitedly to He Xingzhou. "We've tested the first lithium-air powered battery. Its energy density, safety, and the number of cycles it can cycle through completely meet the requirements."
"The performance of the current lithium-air battery is second to none!"
"The battery technology has basically been conquered by us! Next, we just need to improve the production process and mass produce it!"
When he spoke, he did not believe that the battery technology could achieve a big breakthrough so quickly.
According to their previous assumptions, the battery technology would take at least a few years to achieve some results.
But now, the speed of research and development was faster than any of their previous scientific research.
"The efficiency is really fast." He Xingzhou praised, "Seniors, you've been working too hard these days."
"What efficiency?" An expert shook his head and said, "We're basically tracing the picture given to use in the report. There's no reason why it can't be done so well!"
"Which team developed these technical data?"
He Xingzhou smiled and said, "I got some information from the research institutes around the world and then collated it."
"What?" Everyone looked at him in surprise. So, this information came from He Xingzhou?
"Even if we gather the data of all the scientific research institutes, it's impossible to be so perfect! Comrade He Xingzhou is simply a genius in the field of batteries!"
"Amazing! If this matter is announced, you can at least win a Nobel Prize in Chemistry!"
"If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't dare to believe it!"
"The younger generation is awesome!" An old professor sighed.
He Xingzhou did not say anything more. This was just so-so? The batteries in the experimental phase still needed to be constantly improved. There was more to come!
He asked again, "How are the nanocrystal solar cells?"
An engineer said, "We have already produced the nanocrystalline titanium dioxide material. We are contacting the factory to manufacture the solar panels and related photovoltaic modules."
"The nanocrystalline photovoltaic power station is expected to be completed within 30 days."
The person speakign was Guo Cheng, an engineer at the national grid. Apart from the photovoltaic power station, he was also the leader of the research and development team for wireless charging technology.
"Very good, the progress is still very much within the plan." He Xingzhou was very satisfied. Project Black Tortoise had priority everywhere. No matter what they did, they could mobilize the resources of the whole country to cooperate.
How could normal work be so efficient?
..
He Xingzhou posted the first episode of the video online. At the end of the video, he had already created a lithium-air powered battery.
"The uploader finally posted again!" The first person to see the video was He Xingzhou's account editor, Xiao Mu.
Since the last series, He Xingzhou had exploded in popularity. Xiao Mu had been trying to contact He Xingzhou, but he could not get in touch at all. He thought that He Xingzhou had signed a contract with another platform and had changed jobs.
When he saw that he was still at BiliBili, he heaved a sigh of relief.
"A new video. Are we going to build an electromagnetic levitation vehicle? A Model?" Xiao Mu's first thought was that He Xingzhou was going to build a model. After all, who could actually build such a vehicle?
However, when he opened the video to take a look, he realized that his guess was completely wrong!
He Xingzhou actually planned to build a real electromagnetic levitation vehicle!
"A real electromagnetic levitation vehicle can carry people and things, wireless charging, electromagnetic levitation motor, and supersonic driving. No, this is considered flying, right?"
"This author is too exaggerated! The miniature nuclear fission reactor that was produced in the last episode is already technologically advanced in the world, but this car is still not available in the world, right?" Xiao Mu ridiculed as he watched the video.
The video editors around also gathered around. When they saw the concept video, they said, "The concept video is indeed very cool. It has a sci-fi feel to it."
"But it's completely impossible for him to make this. It's likely that it will be a miniature model in the end. That is more probable."
They were not the only ones. After He Xingzhou's video was released, some viewers had already seen it and commented and ridiculed it.
"Claw claw!"
"It's finally updated,!"
"The author is awesome. He's going to make an electromagnetic levitation car this episode? ? ? ?"
"A beautiful lady suddenly appeared! What a beautiful lady!"
"The concept video is really cool, but I want to say that this thing can really be made?"
"Isn't it a model? The author must be joking with us! If you can make it, I'll broadcast myself live blocking a five-speed steel-blade electric fan while doing a handstand!"
"After watching the first half of the video, I thought it was a joke. However, towards the end, it seems like he's doing it for real! They even made the batteries already."
"Absolutely impossible. He said he's making lithium-air batteries. Do you know what that means? If he makes this battery, the battery industry all over the world, as well as other related industries, such as electronics and electric car companies will go crazy!"
More and more comments were posted, and more and more people were watching the video. In the comments, voices of doubt began to appear.
Someone posted: "This video is too ridiculous. If you want to make an electromagnetic levitation car, it's possible to make a model. You said it's a physical vehicle? How is that possible?"
"Just the battery in your video is impossible. If you were to do it, would you still be able to make a video for us here? You would have been rich long ago!"
A bunch of people below agreed. "Yeah, not to mention this car, just the battery is enough for the author to earn money that he would never be able to spend in his entire life!"
"If there really was such a battery, the news would have been released long ago. Wouldn't those related companies go crazy?"
"This video is purely a fake video to fool people! I strongly condemn it!"
He Xingzhou also saw these comments and helplessly replied to a post. "Your views are too small! I don't even need to make a video to earn money. I can understand everyone's doubts. Regarding whether the battery is real or fake, everyone can pay attention to the latest news."
He Xingzhou did not say much. This technology would be announced through the relevant research institutes. The reason was very simple. When the Project Black Tortoise was established, everyone had discussed this issue.
The members agreed that some of the technologies that were important to the Project Black Tortoise should be announced and opened to the public in a timely manner so as to promote the development of related industries.
When the Zerg disaster came, these industries could become military industries at any time! Just like this metal-air battery, if all of China's battery factories upgraded to metal-air battery production technology, they could be the first to produce better battery powered automobiles and battery powered electronics. In critical moments, these production lines could produce batteries for mechas or even robots.
