However, the battery needed to be replaced. Before the people from Jierui Power arrived, Xia Yu started to dismantle the car. The car's lithium battery pack weighed about 20 kilograms and had a maximum energy storage capacity of 4 megajoules.
The battery pack that Xia Yu remade has little change in weight, but the maximum energy storage capacity has doubled to a terrifying 8 megajoules. It is believed that the thermal efficiency can even exceed the latest W10.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t sell him a new car, he will just buy you his old car in seconds. He is so unreasonable.
The battery may be in poor condition, but Xia Yu checked the body, and the planetary differential, multi-plate clutch, hydraulic double wishbone push-rod front suspension, and pull-rod rear suspension were all in good condition.
It has been well maintained. With a new battery, we can be reborn and return to the track to race freely again.
This is very important, because buying an F1 car that has been retired and not refurbished and rebuilt is like collecting scrap. Xia Yu calls himself a garbage man, but he doesn't want to pick up garbage!
Both his W08 and the F2002 he bought before have had their engines replaced. After all, no matter how many honors they have, they cannot withstand running more than ten or twenty races in a row, with sixty or seventy laps in each race.
The lifespan of a racing car engine is always shorter than that of a family car. For owners who buy AMGONE, the theoretical driving mileage is only 50,000 kilometers. But for a sports car, it may have changed hands countless times after running tens of thousands of kilometers, so this is not a problem.
"Mr. Xia, this is the battery pack you requested."
The person delivering the item was Liu Ling. He didn't trust others, so he came in person. However, as soon as he got out of the elevator, he saw...
This is an F1 car, right?
It looks like a Mercedes-Benz.
"Since we're here, come and give us a hand. Let's change the battery pack."
Xia Yu didn't care and directly called Liu Ling to come over to help.
“Hey!”
Liu Ling stepped forward immediately. He never expected that what Xia Yu asked him to make was the F1 battery pack.
Yes, AMGONE used F1 technology before, so it is normal for their batteries to be used back in F1.
"Mr. Xia, is this car yours?"
"Well, it cost me tens of millions of euros, but it's not a loss. We will be collaborating deeply with Mercedes-Benz in F1 in the second half of the year. Can the other teams just watch?"
Xia Yu's next stage of development strategy for Jierui Power is to further enhance its brand value by bundling its marketing with the F1 event. Not to mention the giants in the battery industry, such as Ningde, Panasonic, BYT, there is also Jierui Power!
Only by going out can we make the cake bigger. China's market is big, but we can't keep rolling inwards in different ways, right? Xia Yu still has some pursuits and some feelings.
"Boss Xia, this is a great thing!"
Liu Ling said excitedly that being successful internationally is different from being successful domestically. Although the cooperation with Mercedes-Benz has made many foreign car companies aware of Jierui Power, they will mistakenly believe that Mercedes-Benz made the choice for the Chinese market. However, the weight of F1 is different, and that is the real popularity.
"That's all good. I plan to accelerate the iteration of technology and start research on solid lithium batteries. You'll still be in charge then."
After installing the battery pack on the car, Xia Yu patted Liu Ling on the shoulder, one to encourage him, and the other to wipe the dust off his hands. In short, Old Liu was as excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
"Don't worry, Mr. Xia. Solid-state lithium batteries are the future development trend. We have achieved a technological advantage in ternary lithium batteries, and solid-state lithium batteries will not lag behind."
Of course he won’t fall behind. After all, the relevant technology has already come out and is all in Xia Yu’s mind!
"By the way, Mr. Liu, has anyone tried to poach you recently?"
Suddenly remembering this, Xia Yu mentioned it.
"There were too many. Besides headhunters, there were also many of my classmates. When lobbyists tried to persuade me to change jobs, I blocked them all."
Liu Ling confessed to Xia Yu without reservation.
These people were not interested in him, but the technology that the boss brought. The high salary they promised was just bait, and he would not be fooled!
"Well done, I didn't make a mistake."
Xia Yu patted Lao Liu's shoulder happily again.
"But, Mr. Xia, there are still engineers who are planning to resign."
"Let them go. They will regret it later. Don't take it to heart. Just pay more attention to future recruitment and bring in more talented people."
There are people who stay and there are people who leave. Even if a non-compete agreement is signed, the leakage of some technology is inevitable. However, as long as the technology iteration is fast enough and the core technology is not leaked, those people will not be able to catch up with the new technology even if they eat X.
"I will take good care of this aspect. Mr. Xia, just leave it to me!"
Liu Ling went back after he finished speaking, while Xia Yu reassembled the W08 into a complete car, started the engine, and drove it to the Mercedes-Benz showroom on the second floor.
He was temporarily satisfied with the two F1 cars racing against each other. When he got a chance, he would take both cars to the Shanghai International Circuit, invite Hamilton over, and organize a friendly match to see who could outrun the other.
Xia Yu shouldn't lose so badly, if he could draw Schumacher's character card, it would be even better. The peak showdown between the two eras would be more insightful. His current strength is not a little bit worse. After all, we are just more professional amateur players.
After a busy afternoon, it was getting dark when I left the office.
Xia Yu was a little uncomfortable with the fact that it got dark so quickly. In Xinjiang, it might not even be dark at 10 pm. He had to adjust to the time difference during this domestic trip.
For dinner, they went directly to Xia Ji on the Bund and had a simple meal of three dishes and a soup. After returning to their new home, Xia Yu took a shower and went to bed.
People go to bed early when they are tired. He slept until four in the morning, almost seven hours.
