Upon hearing this, Lurkar showed a laughing and crying expression on his face.He never expected that Jiang Chen would notice his booth for this reason.
... Can't afford it.
Hearing Rulka's honest answer, Jiang Chen's expression was a little strange.Although he expected that the company's financial situation should not be very good, he did not expect that theirs were already so poor.
Electric cars?I feel that your car seems to have nothing special compared to other electric cars.
Seeing Jiang Chen talking about his product, Rurka immediately became energetic.
No, Mr. Jiang Chen, you don’t understand the uniqueness of our products.By using wireless charging technology, we have saved the wiring ports of charging cars.In this way, the car owner only needs to park the car in the designated charging space to complete the charging.
In other words, if you are compared to mobile phone manufacturers, your advantage over other mobile phones is that you do not need a data cable to charge?Jiang Chen teased.
Although he did not have a deep understanding of the automobile production industry, he still had some understanding of pure electric vehicles.
The reason is nothing, because there are basically electric cars in the end of the world, and fossil fuel cars will be eliminated with historical necessity, just like the steaming cars that burned coal.
The technical difficulties in the development of modern pure electric vehicles mainly lie in the two aspects of battery life and charging time.
Let’s talk about battery life first.
Ideally, driving at a constant speed of 30 km/h, it is difficult for a pure electric vehicle to reach a range of 300 km.
Such a short-distance range will undoubtedly cause great inconvenience to car owners, which is also the main reason for restricting the promotion of pure electric vehicles.
There is also the issue of charging time.
Generally speaking, the charging time of a pure electric vehicle is between 7-8 hours.
Although the lithium iron carbonate batteries widely used currently have a fast charging mode of half an hour, the impact of high-power charging on battery life is quite serious, especially the heat generation cannot be underestimated.
But when you are on the highway, you can't spend seven or eight hours leisurely waiting for the charge to be fully charged.
For many people who are impatient, half an hour of fueling is already very harsh.
However, this Rulkau Automobile Company obviously pointed out that it has not made any progress in the above two technical difficulties, but focused on the development of wireless charging technology.
To put it nicely, it is far-sighted, but to put it bluntly, it is just going to run without even learning.
However, it is precisely because of this that the concept car launched by their company attracted Jiang Chen's attention.
Because the car charging stations in the apocalypse happen to be using wireless charging technology.
Car owners only need to drive the car to the designated parking space and start the charging service by logging into a mobile electronic device or on-board computer with personal information.
Convenience is the advantage of wireless charging.
Hearing Jiang Chen's teasing, an embarrassing expression immediately appeared on Rurka's face.
And I don't know if you consider the energy loss.I don’t know much about cars, but as far as mobile phones are concerned, as far as I know, with current wireless charging technology, the ideal energy loss is also 30%.Seeing the expression on Rurka's face, Jiang Chen smiled and continued.
Hearing Jiang Chen's proud work that belittled his company so much, Rurka was immediately displeased and retorted.
That being said, the on-board lithium battery designed by our company can shorten the charging time to 15 minutes!And it will not cause any loss of battery life.
A quarter of an hour?
This is an extraordinary ability, Jiang Chen looked at Rurka unexpectedly.
oh?How did you do it?
Rurka kept silent about Jiang Chen's questions.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Jiang Chen felt a little bit confident.
Not talking means that his solution does not require a lot of technical content, or it will not be very technically difficult to implement.
If it is difficult to imitate, he will not be silent.
Mr. Rulka, if you don’t even want to satisfy me in this little curiosity, how can you expect me to willingly pay for your products?Jiang Chen said softly.
Are you willing to invest in us?A look of surprise flashed across Rurka's face.
If your product can attract my interest.Jiang Chen said in an indifferent tone.
Rurka struggled for a moment, and finally sighed and spoke.
Well, honestly, although we registered 12 patents for the car, the Patent Office sent back our patent documents for the most critical creative aspects.The reason for refusal is very simple. You cannot apply for a patent for a small matter like tandem lithium battery... Well, after saying this, you should have already understood.
Seeing the sudden expression on Jiang Chen's face, Rurkka had no choice but to spread his hands.
That's right, I have to say, your solution is... creative.Jiang Chen said in shame.
Yes, he already understood the Lurkar solution, which is to connect many lithium batteries in series and then connect a charging module to the base of each battery.
Because of wireless charging technology, the charging base station can easily charge N lithium batteries connected in series in the vehicle body at the same time.
This approach can indeed shorten the charging time, but the disadvantages are also so obvious that people can't complain about it.
...But I wonder if you have considered the cost issue?There is also the volume of the battery, and each battery is equipped with a charging module.Jiang Chen couldn't help but ask.
Speaking of this issue, a hint of pride appeared on Rulka's face, which has to be mentioned as the KS-12 integrated battery designed by our company, which is almost the core of our entire car's technology!It consists of 8 independent lithium battery units, with a total power storage capacity of up to 40 kWh and a cruising range of more than 180 kilometers!
This data is very average compared to the pure electric cars on the market, but the two advantages of wireless charging and fast charging can add a lot of points to it.
But there is another most critical issue that Rulkar did not mention, that is cost.
What about the cost?Jiang Chen repeated the most critical question.
Rurka's expression became awkward again and glanced to the side.
Of course, cost is indeed a problem, but our technicians have come up with improvement plans and if we can get an investment, we are confident that we can cut costs to a reasonable range.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen's face showed a playful expression.
Typically, electric cars are twice as expensive as fuel vehicles of the same performance.Judging from Rurka's expression, the cost-effectiveness of this car is probably a bit pity.
Can I ask about the price of this car?
After hesitating for a moment, Rurkka still answered truthfully, if mass production is made, the cost will be about 700,000 US dollars.
How many people do you think will pay for your car?Jiang Chen asked with a smile.
Rurka said with a wry smile, Mr. Jiang Chen, if you have been chatting with me for so long to mock me, your goal has been achieved.
Then you are destined to be disappointed. I am not trying to ridicule you, but I am very interested in your company... or technology.After a pause, Jiang Chen smiled and handed out his business card. So, are you interested in a $100 million financing proposal?
... Can't afford it.
Hearing Rulka's honest answer, Jiang Chen's expression was a little strange.Although he expected that the company's financial situation should not be very good, he did not expect that theirs were already so poor.
