On the track.
Cheng Ziyang and some engineers were doing the final checks on Nian.
It was not easy to break through the top speed of 500 companies.
Under extreme speed, Lun Tai could not withstand it.
The tires on the Nian were Michelin tires of the same model as the Bugatti. They were directly glued to the wheel. Otherwise, it would not be able to withstand such a level of acceleration.
There was also gasoline, which was made from special biofuel.
Chen Fang went to find Giordson, who was now wearing an F1 racing suit.
"Boss."
Chen Fang nodded.
"Run well. If your speed breaks through 500, I'll give you a bonus.”
"What?" Gibbson's eyes lit up.
"Don't worry, boss. As long as the car can withstand it, I'll definitely run to 500 yuan.”
All the cameras were focused on the Nian on the track.
The Era-Lesin Racetrack had a straight, high-speed track that was 9 kilometers long. The specially modified Chiron of the Bugatti created a top speed of 490 kilometers here.
At the starting point of the track, there was a large screen. Through the cameras arranged on the high-speed track, the situation on the track could be transmitted in real time.
Coupled with the camera inside the car and the drone camera in the sky, it was guaranteed that the test could be recorded without any blind spots.
It was midnight.
"Boss, the temperature is a little low.”
Cheng Ziyang said worriedly.
Zhang Puhe immediately looked at Chen Fang nervously.
There was only one chance for this test. It wasn't that they couldn't do it all over again, but that the four tires had been scrapped.
In addition, the tires were directly stuck to the wheels, and they had to be replaced.
"Let's take the test. At this point, we have to accept any results.”
Chen Fang was calm.
It didn't really matter whether they broke the record or not. Being able to run above 400 without exploding proved to everyone that the Dragon Country had the ability to produce supercars.
Gibbson entered the car.
"Why am I so nervous?”
"I don't know if I can succeed.”
"Four hundred kilometers per hour? What kind of concept is that? Won't this car fall apart?”
"It's even faster than F1."
Many reporters focused their cameras on Nian.
The year beast was activated.
The low roar of the engine was like the roar of a giant beast.
He inserted a special key and unlocked the Extreme Speed mode.
The indicator lights on the side of the track slowly lit up. When the last light lit up, there was a loud roar that almost pierced through the clouds. The Nian on the track seemed to have been kicked in the butt and suddenly jumped out.
In just an instant, he disappeared from everyone's sight.
It was so fast that even his eyes could not keep up.
Chen Fang turned to the big screen.
Almost in the next moment, the timer on the big screen sent back real-time monitoring data.
Breaking 100, 2.1 seconds!
In the distance, the roar of the engine continued to fade away.
From the drone's perspective, a black-red bolt of lightning streaked across the straight track like a stream of light.
There were also cameras on the track that showed a blurry scene of Nian flashing past the camera.
The view inside the car was even more terrifying.
Because there was a real-time head-up display, he could see that the speed of the racing car was soaring at an astonishing speed.
11.26 seconds, the speed exceeded 300 kilometers per hour.
This number was about a second slower than the Bugatti Chiron.
However, starting from 300, the Nian seemed to have started to exert its strength, and its speed continued to increase crazily.
Amidst everyone's exclamations.
An exaggerated number popped up on the big screen.
26.75 seconds.
Nian broke through the speed of 400 kilometers per hour.
This number was five seconds shorter than the 32-second record set by the Bugatti Chiron.
Wendelao's expression was already shrouded in shock and gloom.
At this moment, he suddenly regretted lending the race track to Chen Fang.
Using his track and breaking his world record, what could be more heart-wrenching than that?
No one cheered. Everyone held their breaths.
Even though the Nian had already run three kilometers away, the roar of the engine could still be heard.
His speed was still increasing.
Nian's goal was to break the record for land flying devices.
37 seconds, 50 km(h.
Nian's later acceleration was obviously faster, it had been specially adjusted.
51 seconds, the speed broke through 490.
This speed had already broken the world record.
Wendelao's body trembled uncontrollably, and his face was so gloomy that water could drip out.
57 seconds, 500 km(h!
In an instant, Gibbson opened the decelerating tail and began to decelerate.
The 9-kilometer straight track was about to reach the end.
The cameras on the track clearly captured the brake discs rapidly heating up and turning red.
But it was too late.
At the end of the straight track, there were still two hundred kilometers per hour.
As expected of an F1 driver, Gibbson stepped on the accelerator slightly to maintain the power output. He passed through the roundhouse at the end of the track at high speed and finally stopped steadily on the track.
It was only at this moment that Pu He, Cheng Ziyang, and the others burst into loud cheers.
"Boss, we did it. 500 kilometers, a world record!”
Cheng Ziyang shouted and jumped excitedly.
Zhang Puhe turned around and gave Chen Fang a big hug.
"Chen Fang, thank you."
Zhang Puhe kept thanking him.
Chen Fang struggled free from Zhang Puhe after a while.
Excitement, not to the point.
So what if it's 500 miles per hour? Can you run that fast in China? You still have to stop and wait when you encounter a traffic light.
In the live broadcast rooms of the major platforms, there was a wave of ghostly wails.
"Damn, this is too fast.”
"I didn't even dare to breathe for a minute. My heart was in my throat. This thing can run so fast.”
"500 kilometers per hour. That's faster than high-speed rail.”
"Wuling is awesome. They actually came up with such an awesome supercar.”
"It's not that Wuling is awesome, but Nian Beast is awesome. This is simply another brand, alright?"”
"If this thing is equipped with wings, it will probably be able to fly. A land-based aircraft deserves its reputation!”
"I just want to know when this thing will be on the market and how much it will cost.”
"It starts at ten million and there's no limit. As long as it can be mass-produced, it would be strange if the local tycoons didn't buy it.”
Wuling's press conference could be said to be extremely successful.
Before the new year, it had once occupied the Spring Festival Gala. There were also some key hot words such as the Spring Festival movies that made the headlines.
As the first supercar in the Dragon Country, the real supercar had also run the world record of 500 kilometers per hour. Naturally, the attention it received was shocking.
Many people were looking forward to when this car would be released and sold.
The internet was also filled with discussions about the price of this car.
Everyone thought that this car would definitely cost more than ten million yuan.
But it definitely wouldn't be as exaggerated as Bugatti's 30 to 40 million yuan, because it would be less of a large amount of customs duties and brand premium.
These discussions were not within Chen Fang's scope of attention. After returning from Germany, Chen Fang celebrated the new year.
In fact, there was nothing good about it.
In this year, the atmosphere of the New Year was really too weak.
Fortunately, no one cared about the fireworks on Starfish Island. Chen Fang bought hundreds of thousands of fireworks and let them off to his heart's content.
After the new year, the various work that had been stagnant began to advance steadily.
First, it was the solid-state solute.
On the domestic side, after the China National Aerospace Corporation announced the establishment of a 10-million-ton solid solute production base in Shanghai, the major battery manufacturers quickly followed suit.
Byd, Ningfeng, Yiwei lithium battery, and so on, all announced the construction of million-ton or even five-million-ton production bases to meet their own production needs.
And the biggest winner would definitely be Chen Fang Company. The royalty fees could be said to have been very generous.
The revenue for the first quarter of 2022 was already set at a new high.
Then there was virtual reality technology.
The land had already been decided before the new year and was currently being built.
Chen Fang also asked the factory to make a sample of the standard equipment first.
After much consideration, Chen Fang still chose the helmet style.
The huge space of the helmet was enough to meet the design requirements.
It would be a waste of space to make it into a massage bed.
However, Chen Fang felt that he could also consider producing a massage bed-type virtual interaction device in the future for the rich.
"President Chen, is this it?”
Gu Xizhou looked at the finished product in front of him and curiously picked it up to examine it.
From the outside, it looked like a large motorcycle helmet.
The interior was designed with ergonomical considerations. It could fit the curve of the brain to the greatest extent and avoid the problems of the cervical spine caused by long-term wear.
Inside the helmet, there were integrated power, communication, processor, memory, and other important components.
Simply put, this was a computer with amazing performance, but it had been specially designed and optimized.
For example, it could integrate up to four high-performance processing chips and specially design a main board for this purpose, which was responsible for running and distributing computing power at the same time.
"What about the cost?"
Gu Xizhou played with it for a while and asked the most crucial question.
Su Wenchang coughed lightly.
"Excluding the cost of research and development, the cost of the equipment itself is about 4,300 yuan.”
There was no way to calculate the research and development costs, so he might as well not calculate them.
All the internal modules had to be customized, and the cost was not small.
Gu Xizhou's eyes lit up. This cost was much lower than he had expected.
"If that's the case, it shouldn't be a problem to sell it for 8,000 yuan at the ex-factory price.”
The ex-factory price of 8,000 yuan was about 10,000 yuan in the hands of the final consumer.
10,000 yuan was enough to enjoy the best virtual reality technology. Gu Xizhou felt that this price was not expensive.
It was normal for the VR products to sell for tens of thousands.
"President Chen, I'll take this thing to a professional organization for safety testing.”
"Alright, get it done as soon as possible. The most important thing is still the factory. Work overtime. Don't be afraid of spending money. We can earn back the money we spend now a hundred times over in the future.”
At the beginning of March, Zhang Puhe held another grand press conference in Shanghai.
The countdown to the sale of Nian beasts had officially begun.
