Technological power starts with upgrading lenses

Regarding the power swap station and sodium battery projects, Datang Heavy Industries was very low-key in the early days, without any announcements or momentum.

But such a big move cannot be hidden from the leading companies in the energy industry, as well as some media reporters with a keen sense of smell.

So soon, some gossip quickly became news headlines and spread on the Internet.

"Dr. Kang has made another big move recently!" Some people familiar with the matter said that Datang Heavy Industry will invest hundreds of billions to build large-scale new energy vehicle battery swap stations across the country! 》

"Battery swapping vs. fast charging, who is the future of new energy?" 》

"Can Datang Heavy Industry's battery swapping station solve the embarrassing situation of pure electric vehicles? 》

"Shock! Dr. Kang has issued a challenge to the entire new energy vehicle industry! 》

"New Force Dark Horse?" Master Kong new energy vehicles are coming! 》

…

The media headlines are naturally eye-catching and exaggerated as always.

And this news quickly aroused heated discussions among netizens across the country.

"Really? How much investment does this cost?"

"I have a friend who works at a gas station. Their gas station has been sold to Datang Heavy Industry to build a battery swap station, so this matter should be confirmed."

"Battery swap station? Who can I swap the battery with? NIO?"

"Could it be that if you build a battery swapping station, new energy car companies will obediently build you an electric car with separated battery?"

"Master Kong can build his own car!"

"Build it yourself? Do you want to be another NIO company? The key is not to build the car first, but to build so many battery swap stations... Aren't you afraid that the car won't be sold and you will lose all your money?"

"I think that only by building a battery swapping station first can we show Master Kong's sincerity and determination to promote battery swapping. I am just about to change trains. If Master Kong really builds so many battery swapping stations, then I will really consider buying a Tingyi tram. Otherwise, It’s better to continue driving a petrol car, at least there’s no anxiety about battery life.”

"Buy a tram? I'm afraid that when you see the price, people will be scared to death."

"Nonsense, I, Mr. Kang, have always loved fans. Do you understand technology?"

"+1, I support Master Kong's battery swapping mode. In fact, we should have launched battery swapping long ago, otherwise the battery life anxiety would be too serious."

"The anxiety level of buying a car with a longer range is -99."

"I would like to buy it, but looking at the price, my wallet is -99, so forget it. With that kind of money, I can buy a luxury car and save ten years of gas expenses."

"Weilai has built more than 2,000 battery swapping stations. Mr. Li is now losing 60 million every day when he wakes up. Dr. Kang has such a big business, he is probably losing 600 million every day when he wakes up? Are you not afraid of funds? Is the chain going bankrupt? I feel sorry for Dr. Kang!"

…

Although most netizens think that the battery swap mode is good, they basically think that Kangchi is just another Mr. Li from NIO. Although the ideal is beautiful, the reality is very skinny, and he will definitely lose money in new energy.

This also reflects sideways that most people are actually quite resistant to new energy vehicles.

The reason is that the poor experience of the first batch of new energy car owners gave everyone a very bad impression. Even with such great support from the country, they finally embarked on the road of "new energy" with gasoline-electric hybrids. road.

In addition to netizens, battery manufacturers are also very confused about Datang Heavy Industry's operations.

With so many battery swap stations built, where do they get their batteries?

Especially CATL and BYD, two companies that account for half of the lithium battery market.

At least, they have not received any battery orders from Datang Heavy Industry, and they have not heard of anyone that Datang Heavy Industry has been in contact with.

Is Datang Heavy Industries going to enter the battery industry and make its own batteries?

But even if you have the technology, can such a large demand for battery production capacity be produced in a short time?

Their doubts did not last for a few days. Rumors suddenly spread frequently in the industry, saying that Datang Heavy Industry acquired several lithium battery factories today and several lead-acid battery factories tomorrow, although they were all second- and third-tier companies. It is a small company, but all the news seems to be solid. Datang Heavy Industries is preparing to make its own batteries.

This made the lithium battery industry, which was already highly competitive, suddenly shout: The wolf is coming!

But is Kang Chi really a wolf?

Obviously not. If Kangchi really expands the new energy and energy storage market, the combined production capacity of all domestic battery factories may not be able to meet demand.

The problem of overcapacity does not exist at all, okay?

However, sometimes it is easy to be suspicious of the meat that is fed to your mouth. The sour plums you see from a distance make your mouth water...

This is human nature, and no one can blame it.

So what Kang Chi has to do is not to feed meat, but to throw out a sour plum.

Just as Kangchi was devoting himself to the manufacturing of sodium battery production lines, good news suddenly came from Daqin Optics.

Tongwu camera is made!

He Yongbin built a medium format video camera based on Kang Chi's request.

When Kangchi received this camera, I was actually quite surprised.

Compared with the Stitch Monster that was sent to me when they last developed the Wu'an camera, this medium format camera that they took just over a month to develop actually looks quite similar from the outside.

The square and thick body design, coupled with the oversized bayonet that basically circles the body, and the huge sensor behind the bayonet, make it very impressive at first glance.

And its workmanship is also remarkable. All parts fit together so tightly that not even a hair can fit inside.

Not bad!

This progress can be said to be extremely rapid!

Kang Chi was very satisfied with He Yongbin's performance.

However, when I actually used it, I found that it was not the case at all...

This machine they built was, to put it bluntly, a Wu'an camera with a different sensor and a larger bayonet.

Although the video performance has also been greatly improved, reaching 4K120P, it is obvious that the potential of this sensor has not been fully exploited.

In addition, contrast focus is also very difficult to perform when shooting videos, so it is more like forcing the camera to become a video machine.

However, it is actually very rare to be able to build such a camera in such a short period of time, and Kangchi cannot ask them to make any major breakthroughs in technology.

Sure enough, we still have to encourage the growth.

General experience-5000.

Kangchi directly upgraded this camera.

[Item: Medium format digital camera]

[Manufacturer: Daqin Optics]

[Item level: 2]

[Experience: 0/10000]

[Item status: intact]

[Main parameters of the item: 20 million pixels, up to 4K240P, 6K60P video shooting, phase focus mode, 5-level body image stabilization, SDD storage medium]

[Analysis item: parsable]

[General experience: 84894 (-5000)]

[Proficiency Points: 67]

After clicking on the phase focus and improving all aspects of performance, Kangchi decisively stopped and did not continue to upgrade.

He doesn't want to invest too much proficiency points in this area at the moment. Anyway, this performance is completely sufficient, and it can even be said to be very good at fighting!
