Chong Sheng 1977Nian Cong Zhi Qing Kai Shi

After having a picnic on Hollywood Hills, the three of Nanyi started to descend.

On the way down the mountain, Scarlett suddenly said, "Adam, do we want to enter the automotive field?"

"Why did you suddenly talk about cars and met an opportunity?" Nanyi asked strangely.

"No, I just think that except for agriculture, we can become the industry leader, and there seems to be no chance for others. Then we can only take the road of decentralized development, get involved in various industries, and wait for a few years of development. Let's see in which areas we can continue to go.

Then focus on the development of these areas, cut off investment in other industries, and focus on the development of advantageous areas.

The automobile industry is a very important industry, and it is also one of the leading industries in the world. It is a pity that we do not enter. "

"Tell me what you think."

"The privatization of Eagle Country has been going on for several years and has accelerated considerably since last year with the re-election of the Conservative Party and the strengthening of its majority in Parliament.

Eagle State owns Jaguar, Aston Martin, Bentley, Rolls-Royce, Rover, Land Rover, Lotus, MG, MINI, McLaren, whether it is Rover, Bentley, Rolls-Royce, Jaguar, Lotus , Land Rover have their own engine research and development capabilities.

Any one of these brands we win can gain a firm foothold in the auto industry.

First stand firm, and then in Moutu. In Europe, it is difficult for us to have opportunities, but we can go to Asia, to Huaguo. Isn’t Huaguo vigorously introducing automobile brands and technologies? We can go to Huaguo to establish a joint venture .

Huaguo has a large population. As long as 1% of the people can buy a car in the future, this is a huge market with great potential. "

"It's a good idea, but whether it's the privatization of Faguo or Yingguo, do you think they are serving foreign capital? No, they are serving their own country and finding a balance between capital, workers, and the government.

Domestic capital can cause internal strife, but it will never give a foreign capital a chance.

Do you think you can get something by rushing in? "

"Adam, is there a problem with your understanding? When I say us, I don't just refer to Pan Am. I also mean Nan's. If Pan Am can't get in, can't Nan's get in too?

Haven't you already attracted people's attention to that woman named Catherine Boleyn? Can't you use her to participate in the privatization reform of Eagle Country? "

"Oh, blame me, I didn't change your identity for a while." Nan Yi patted his forehead and said: "To be honest, I had the idea of ​​buying a small car brand, not to enter the car field, but to give us Build your own safe vehicle.

However, this does not mean that I have no idea about the automotive field. I have no idea about fuel vehicles. If I had been 20 years earlier, I might have bought a car brand and then developed slowly.

Now, several major auto brands have taken shape, and it is very difficult for us to break in and fight our way out, but this does not mean that we have no chance at all. "

"Then what do you mean, to enter or not to enter?" Scarlett asked eagerly.

"Don't worry, listen to me." Nanyi waved his hand and continued: "Whether it is Scarlett Food Group or Shennong Nanliang Group, they have collected climate data from various places over the years.

According to the data, since 1965, the global climate has been slowly warming, although this change is very slow. I also asked people to ask the climate observatory in the North and South Poles. The melting rate of glaciers in the North and South Poles has been accelerating.

Do you know what that means? "

"What?"

"When the world warms, it will cause drought in many parts of the world, and when the land becomes dry, water resources will naturally evaporate.

First of all, this will lead to the death of several cold-resistant animals. There is a food chain between animals. When one of the animals becomes extinct, it will lead to very bad consequences. The food chain collapses, and other animals are extinct one by one.

And when the world warms, the prehistoric viruses frozen in the glaciers may be released. When these viruses spread around the world, it may bring unpredictable consequences.

Even if we don't consider the problem of viruses and only consider water, once the water resources are scarce and the land becomes dry, the production of food crops will decrease. At that time, food for most people will become a problem.

A person can live without a car, TV, air conditioner, etc., or without clothes, but he feels that he cannot live without food and drink. It is precisely because of this understanding that I put our Nan's main business on agriculture and animal husbandry.

If the problem of continuous deterioration of the environment is not resolved, then we humans can only go in two directions, or find a way to leave the earth, go to another planet where human beings can live, and start anew.

Either it is adaptation and evolution, allowing ourselves to adapt to the future climate.

But evolution always has a cycle. Within this cycle, what should we do and what should we survive?

It still depends on food and water, so I will carry out research topics on high-yield crops, alternative food, soilless cultivation, and drought-resistant cultivation at the Fansheng Research Institute.

I even want to directly conduct research on photosynthesis. You see, plants produce starch and sugar through photosynthesis. Is there a possibility that we can directly convert light and carbon dioxide in photosynthesis into energy products that can replace food? "

"Adam, are you stupid? Your idea has a taste of pseudoscience. Just like that Stanley Meyers, what do you think is possible to invent a water-powered car?"

"Don't tell me, water-powered cars are really possible, but they don't just use water as fuel to drive cars. Didn't you return your high school physics and chemistry knowledge to the teacher?"

"Hmm, tell me."

"Dad, do you want to say that water can be decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen, and hydrogen can be burned to generate power?"

"Hehe, our family Ruobing is really smart." Nan Yi praised Nan Ruobing first, and then said: "Water itself cannot be used as fuel, but it can be converted into fuel or an energy carrier, but this requires additional energy Input, for example, we can electrolyze water to produce hydrogen, and we can also use metal sodium to react with water to produce hydrogen.

We just need to add extra energy to the water. Although according to the law of thermodynamics, the energy input for decomposing hydrogen from water far exceeds the energy output for hydrogen combustion. It seems very uneconomical now, but it does not mean that there will be no breakthrough in the future. "

"Since there is the energy to decompose hydrogen, why not directly supply this energy to the car engine, isn't it superfluous?"

"Ha, your idea is very good, yes, why don't we directly supply energy to the car?" Nan Yi smiled and said, "Does Thomas Davenport know who he is?"

"In 1834, the Chinese Thomas Davenport made the first electric tricycle powered by dry batteries and driven by a DC motor, but the driving distance was very short and it could not be charged.

In 1838, Eagle Countryman Robert Davidson built the first electric car powered by dry batteries.

In 1847, Frenchman Famo manufactured the first railless electric car powered by batteries and capable of carrying two people. He mounted the electric motor on a wheeled vehicle powered by 48 Grove batteries.

In 1881, Truff, an electrical engineer in Faguo, manufactured the world's first electric tricycle powered by lead-acid batteries, and exhibited a practical electric tricycle at the International Electrical Appliances Exhibition held in Paris in the same year, which caused a lot of trouble. There was quite a stir.

In 1896, the Hartford Electric Light Company proposed laying out the charging infrastructure so that people could buy cars from General Electric and replace the batteries through the Hartford Electric Light Company as a way to refuel.

The service lasted from 1910 to 1924, during which time it helped electric car owners drive 6 million miles.

In 1897, brand-new electric taxis began to take to the streets of New York City, which was the first commercial use of electric vehicles.

In 1899, German Ferdinand Porsche invented a hub motor to replace the chain drive commonly used in cars at that time. Subsequently, the Loner-Porsche electric vehicle was developed, which uses a lead-acid battery as a power source and is directly driven by a hub motor in the front wheel.

Subsequently, he also loaded two hub motors on the rear wheels of the car, thus giving birth to the world's first four-wheeled electric car.

In 1902, Ferdinand Porsche added an internal combustion engine to the electric car to generate electricity to drive the hub motor, which was also the world's first hybrid car.

In addition, he developed the first all-purpose full-hybrid vehicle, the Semper Vivus.

On this model, two generators are combined with the gasoline engine to form a charging unit that simultaneously supplies power to the hub motors and the battery.

Compared with internal combustion-powered vehicles at the end of the 19th century, electric vehicles have many advantages in addition to the slightly lower speed, such as easy starting, no noise when the motor is working, no engine vibration and unpleasant gasoline smell.

Moreover, the high-torque output characteristics of DC motors at low speeds make it unnecessary for complex transmission systems and easy to operate when used as vehicle power, so electric vehicles have become a main development direction of motor vehicles.

In 1911, the "New York Times" described electric vehicles as perfect because they were more environmentally friendly, quieter, and more economical than gasoline vehicles.

From the end of the 19th century to the beginning of this century, electric vehicles became popular in Europe and the United States and entered the stage of commercialization.

By 1912, there were more than 34,000 electric vehicles registered in China alone, which became the heyday of early electric vehicles. By 1915, the number of electric vehicles in China reached 50,000, and the market share of electric vehicles was higher than that of internal combustion engine vehicles. 16% out.

By the middle of the century, the development of electric vehicle technology basically stagnated until the end of World War II.

Since the 1930s, with the rapid advancement of oil extraction and refining and internal combustion engine technology, vehicles equipped with internal combustion engines are faster, and the sustainable cruising mileage of one refueling is about three times that of electric vehicles, and the cost of use is low.

However, due to the slow progress of battery technology, electric vehicles are difficult to compete with fuel vehicles in terms of performance and price. Around the 1940s, electric vehicles basically completely faded out of the market and entered a hibernation period.

In the 1970s, the Middle East oil crisis broke out, causing the world to fall into an oil shortage situation. People began to pay attention to other powered vehicles, and electric vehicles began to recover.

At this time, China first used fuel cells in spaceflight as the main power source for space shuttles.

Since then, European and American countries have turned their research on fuel cells to civilian power generation and as a power source for automobiles and submarines.

Famous automobile companies have successively invested more manpower and material resources in the development and research of fuel cell electric vehicles.

Major auto companies have joined the Congress-backed International Fuel Cell Alliance, each of which is tasked with producing vehicles powered by new fuel cells.

Under the funding of the Department of Energy, General Motors has launched a car powered by proton exchange membrane fuel cells and batteries.

Up to now, the impact of the energy crisis has gradually dissipated, and the research and development of electric vehicles has progressed slowly.

Well, Adam, did I go into enough detail? "

"Hey, it's detailed enough. I have studied the information on electric vehicles, but I haven't sorted it out. You have been talking about it year by year, and you have made the history of electric vehicles very clear?"

"Of course, I have done several plans on the history of electric vehicles, and I know all the information about electric vehicles." Scarlett raised her chin proudly and said, "So, what do you want to do when you mention Thomas Davenport? Don't tell me you want to get into electric cars."

"Aha, very smart, the situation of global warming will definitely attract the attention of countries around the world, and 'new energy' will definitely become a hot topic in the world at some point, we skip fuel vehicles and directly plan for the future.

As far as automobiles are concerned, there are only two directions that are more feasible. One is hydrogen energy, and the other is electric energy. "

"I don't understand hydrogen energy. Electric energy refers to batteries, right?"

"Yes, the battery." Nanyi nodded.

"Then which one do you want to bet on, lead battery or lithium battery?"

"Do I still need to ask this question? Let's not talk about voltage, energy, and storage life, but just talk about pollution. Lithium batteries are more malleable. Why do I want to deploy electric vehicles? Isn't it from the perspective of environmental protection?"

"So, next step are you going to lay out lithium mines?"

"Smart." Nanyi praised first, and then said: "But it's not comprehensive, I not only want to deploy lithium mines, but also graphite mines.

Graphite oxide was discovered more than 100 years ago. 26 years ago, someone discovered that graphite oxide could be obtained more efficiently by using a mixture of sodium nitrate, potassium permanganate and concentrated sulfuric acid.

Then graphene oxide was unintentionally prepared. If the word "oxidation" in front of graphene is removed, it is a brand new material that crosses the age.

The role of graphene has been conjectured by many people. It can be applied to battery electrode materials, semiconductor devices, sensors, capacitors, transistors, etc.

I don't care about the others for the time being. As far as a battery electrode material is concerned, it is worth my gamble. "

In fact, bet on Der, how could Nanyi not know the bright future of graphene? Before he crossed, some applications of graphene had been invented, but they were not yet popularized.

Even if his generation will not have any rewards on graphene, his son's generation will definitely have clues, and at worst the grandson's generation should be widely used.

But save a square inch of land and leave it to your descendants to cultivate.

As a father and grandfather, Nanyi must leave a few gold mines for his descendants to mine, and must leave a few "gold mines" for his descendants to dig.

It is good for him to eat oil and leave it to his children and grandchildren to eat new energy.

The peaceful development period is coming to an end, and the next volume will be a world of great strife, with constant strife, human life as worthless, and the fate of books is also precarious.
