Chapter 257 Even if You Can’t Accept It, You Have to Accept It! (5K Votes Requested, Please Follow Up)

In the next period of time, after Luo Yao finalized the design of the door frame robot, he came to the new factory to start manufacturing.

All the materials for making the robot had been sent over in advance. After Xiao Moss learned how to operate the factory equipment, Luo Yao confidently gave the design drawings to Xiao Moss to build.

At this time, he received a notification from Luo Zhu that the mass production process of hydrogen negative ion conductor batteries had been opened and the first batch of vehicle batteries had been rolled off the production line.

After he made these arrangements, he notified Peng Gang and asked various car companies to send over experimental vehicles, and he began to make some small modifications to the experimental land for electric vehicles.

A few days later, large trucks arrived at Santu Industrial Park.

"Santu Industrial Park? Why haven't I heard of this place?"

"This place is newly built, but the name is too strange. Why is it called Santu? Does this place lack soil in Feng Shui?"

"Are you so closed on information? I heard that this place has something to do with Luo Yao, and its name is also taken from his name."

"Damn it, did the official give away an industrial park?"

"Seems to be."

"Fuck! This is too generous!"

The person in charge of transporting the experimental vehicle got together to chat as soon as they got off the car. As soon as the information was exchanged, they came to a surprising fact.

The officials valued Luo Yao more than they imagined.

"Do you think there will be any problems if we bring low-end cars this time?" a person in charge said worriedly while smoking.

When he said this, others also became worried.

"What should I do if I regret it now?"

"If we offend Mr. Luo, will there be any consequences for us?"

Shao Hanzhong said: "I think you are too worried. What is there to worry about? Isn't it just an experiment?"

"We don't even know their battery data, shouldn't we be more cautious?"

"Let's go and take a look first."

Following the instructions of the on-site researcher, the group slowly drove into an experimental site.

In addition to Luo Yao, Peng Gang and others, there was also Minister of Energy Wan Peng.

"According to the experimental requirements, all vehicles will be equipped with new batteries here."

"Please sign a confidentiality agreement first."

Do you need to sign a confidentiality agreement now?

Shao Hanzhong looked left and right, and after realizing that everyone else had signed, he also signed.

"Do you have any questions? If not, we will start." Hou Fei, who was in charge of today's battery installation work, said after seeing that everyone had signed the confidentiality agreement.

"Can you tell us the parameters of the battery?" a person suddenly said.

It's not that Hou Fei doesn't want to say it, but he can't say it. Today all data needs to be kept confidential. Who can say that?

Wan Peng picked up the microphone at this time and said: "Everyone, please hurry up. If you are not willing to participate in the experiment, please withdraw as soon as possible."

Wan Peng's heart is anxious now.

Finally, someone has the power to change the entire new energy industry, but these people are still grinding away.

Over the past few decades, the new energy industry has continued to grow and develop, but the process has not been smooth sailing.

At the beginning, the research and development and application of new energy technologies were limited by technical levels and economic conditions, resulting in slow progress. However, with the advancement of science and technology and policy support, the new energy industry has gradually entered a track of rapid development.

Although it is now on the right track, the results are not ideal.

This is especially true for the electric vehicle industry.

Although the cruising range of electric vehicles is constantly improving, it is still unable to compete with traditional fuel vehicles. In addition, insufficient charging facilities also limit the long-distance driving capabilities of electric vehicles, exacerbating users' anxiety.

He heard from Zheng Yang that the performance of Luo Yao's batteries in military equipment has far exceeded that of lithium batteries, nickel metal hydride batteries, and lithium iron phosphate batteries. Can he not be happy that such good things are being marketed?

"Since you are here, don't think too much. If there are no definite results, we will organize everyone to participate in the experiment?"

Everyone from the car companies saw him speaking, and all of them fell silent.

Whether electric vehicles can receive subsidies depends on the Ministry of Energy, and they have always listened to Wanpeng.

Now Wanpeng's attitude made them all realize that it was unusual.

Start installing the battery.

The first step is for Xiao Moss to assess the condition of each vehicle on site.

The first white car drove to the designated place, and Little Moss immediately started her work.

The laser scanner was activated, and several fine laser beams were emitted from the scanner, quickly scanning every corner of the vehicle. The beam penetrates the vehicle's shell, accurately scanning every detail, and transmits the data to Little Moss instantly.

At the same time, a series of numbers and images flashed on the display in front of Luo Yao, including detailed information such as the vehicle's external structure, battery status, wheel size, etc.

[According to the data, the comprehensive score is 71 points, and you can enter the experimental group A. 】

The sound of Little Moss echoed throughout the venue through the speakers.

Everyone present was stunned.

Why are there still ratings? The experimental group was also divided into groups? !

71 points?

Xiong Bang, the person in charge of the car company to which the white car belongs, felt a little uncomfortable.

"Excuse me, what is the basis for this rating? This is our high-end car, why is the rating so low?"

[This score is based on our testing standards and various data. 】

The voice of Little Moss sounded again.

[The scoring mainly takes into account the vehicle’s performance, safety, energy utilization and other indicators. 】

Xiong Bang said dissatisfiedly: "But our car is obviously a high-end car, and its performance should be better."

[High-end cars are your subjective judgment. Xiaomoss retrieved global electric vehicle big data and made a cross-sectional comparison. The overall score of your car is 71, and the car can enter the battery installation process. 】

Through these words of Little Moss, everyone got a shocking news.

Only vehicles with a score of 71 points will have the opportunity to have the battery installed!

Suddenly, everyone who was just looking at the battery status in a relaxed manner suddenly became nervous!

They all felt a sense of urgency. They realized that in order to have a chance to get a new battery, they had to get a score of at least 71 points!

They originally thought they were just doing an experiment, but they didn't expect they would face such a huge challenge!

In the past, everyone was in a state of confusion regarding the situation of electric vehicles, whether it was people inside or outside the car companies.

Only know the performance of a car, such as cruising range, charging time, acceleration performance, etc.

But whether the car is good or not, and what makes it good, are all based on a subjective judgment.

The electric vehicle market has been developing continuously, and most car companies are still in the trial and error stage regarding the application and development direction of new technologies, without forming a clear strategic plan.

Everyone has never thought about coming up with a set of scoring standards at this time. Now the artificial intelligence moss suddenly gives a score directly, which is equivalent to ruthlessly tearing off everyone's long-standing fig leaf!

In this atmosphere, everyone paid attention to the testing of the second car.

The second car is a car from a geek car company.

When Shao Hanzhong saw that it was his own car, his heart began to pound.

Can the other party's artificial intelligence really evaluate the real score?

How could it be so accurate?

Shao Hanzhong stared at the car being evaluated with a straight face. Soon, the results came out.

[According to the data, the comprehensive score is 45 points, and you can enter the experimental group B. 】

Shao Hanzhong wiped the floor and turned white.

The car being evaluated is indeed a low-end car, but how can the score be so low!

The eyes of the people around him were like sharp arrows piercing Shao Hanzhong directly. He became so angry that he couldn't help but said: "This set of scoring standards has not been made public. Why should we believe this score?"

A representative from a car company who participated in the evaluation immediately answered: "Indeed, we also feel that this score is too low. Where does such a score standard come from? What data is it based on? We need transparent and fair evaluation standards!"

His words resonated with representatives from other car companies, who began to express doubts and dissatisfaction with the scoring standards.

Peng Gang began to appease everyone.

"Everyone, I understand everyone's concerns and doubts about the scoring standards, but this set of scoring standards is comprehensively judged by artificial intelligence based on the data of electric vehicles on the market. In this regard, we do have reason to refer to this score."

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Luo Yao.

They didn't dare to say anything to Luo Yao, but everyone could see the dissatisfaction in their eyes.

Luo Yao took the phone.

"Excuse me, the representative of Geek Car Company, where did you study in university?"

Shao Hanzhong puffed out his chest proudly and said, "Nankai."

Nankai University is one of the famous top universities in China. Although it is not as good as Yanbei University and Qingdao University, it is still a good school.

After hearing this, Luo Yao just smiled slightly and said, "So if you didn't get into Yanbei University or Qingdao University in the college entrance examination, would you question the person who set the questions?"

Shao Hanzhong didn't expect that the other party would talk about this. His face turned red and white, and he became embarrassed.

"What does this have to do with the current situation?!" Shao Hanzhong couldn't think anymore. He was so angry that he thought Luo Yao was changing the subject.

"If you can't even figure this out, then I have reason to wonder how you got into Nankai in the first place."

"When I bring your car over, I will definitely have it evaluated. Otherwise, how can I know the true condition of your vehicle?"

"Based on the documents you gave me? If you say it's a flagship model, does it mean it's the flagship?"

"You can fool consumers, but I don't want to do this."

"In my opinion, unquantifiable standards are undoubtedly an attempt to cover up its own weaknesses."

A car company representative stood up and faced Luo Yao's gaze, showing a hint of embarrassment and helplessness.

He cleared his throat and tried to explain: "Mr. Luo, we have provided detailed documents and technical information, although there are certain errors, so we hope you can give us a fair assessment."

"To be honest, we can't accept the score directly."

"If you can't accept it, you have to accept it." Luo Yao said without mercy.

"In fact, I know the reason why you are unwilling to publish the ratings of electric vehicles."

"Because you are worried that consumers will simply give up choosing your car after they find out."

"But I think this is a good thing. There is an objective number out there that allows consumers to clearly and intuitively understand the situation of the car they want to buy at the first time."

"How many consumers will read the documents and technical information you just mentioned?"

Everyone was silent after hearing this. They knew that when consumers buy electric vehicles, they really don't read the information. In addition to paying attention to the price and appearance, what's more important is the performance and quality of the vehicle explained by the salesperson.

Many people who don't know anything about cars buy them because of the sales introduction.

If the rating of the vehicle is not satisfactory, consumers will completely choose to give up the purchase and will not listen to the salesman at all.

Market openness and transparency are good for consumers, but for them the cost of sales increases.

In the past, a business that could be supported by just a few sales may have to focus on technology in the future.

Isn’t this too difficult?

"I agree with Mr. Luo's statement." Just when everyone was thinking about how to get Luo Yao to give up using this standard, someone unexpectedly agreed.

Representatives from other car companies turned their heads to see who this traitor was, but found out that the other person was Yu Dong!

He is the CEO of Wenjie Automobile!

During this period, the literary world was very popular and was a competitor of many car companies. Now Yu Dong has publicly supported Luo Yao, which makes others even more uncomfortable.

This Yu Dazui, do you want anyone else to live?

"I think that if we want to build a Chinese automobile brand, we cannot ignore the issue of technical level. If we build cars behind closed doors, we will only deceive ourselves."

"When foreign companies upgrade their technology again, what advantages will we have?"

These remarks made the atmosphere tense.

Yu Dong has always been straightforward and not afraid of other people's expressions.

Sometimes his words are like a sharp sword, stabbing whoever he catches.

"We must face reality and continuously improve our technical level to remain invincible in the fierce market competition." Yu Dong's voice echoed throughout the conference room, "I think Mr. Luo's assessment must be scientific. I really look forward to the market application of this scoring method."

The people on the side were not happy to hear this.

We don’t want to hear this rating now, but it turns out that you are going to market it directly? !

Isn’t this forcing people?

The average car company spends millions on R&D a year. Once the scores are announced, can they still survive?

"Lao Yu, how much did you charge to say this! Now you don't know what the standard is, so you want to standardize it?"

Yu Guang glanced at the other party and said, "Collect money? If I can receive money from Mr. Luo, it would be an honor for me!"

"Just tell me, who of you can make Mr. Luo's money?"

At this time, Wan Peng asked Luo Yao in a low voice: "Gong Luo, are there really no problems with your evaluation system?"

Luo Yao did not answer directly, but said: "According to Xiaomoss's evaluation, the current rating of Terra Model Y is 87 and Terra Model 3 is 83. These two are the highest scores so far."

"This is also consistent with the choice behavior of market consumers."

After hearing this, Wan Peng was silent for a while and said, "President Peng, this scoring system can be tried out for a period of time and we will see the market feedback."

Peng Gang glanced at the people below who couldn't argue, and said, "I'm worried that no one will agree."

"Why not? Didn't Yu Dong and the others just take a stand? I think Luogong's scoring system can indeed stimulate the entire new energy vehicle market. It's time for this market to undergo major changes."

"In the early stage, it was said to be a trial run, and it would only be enough to recruit a few car companies to conduct experiments."

"What do you think, Mr. Luo?"

"Yeah, okay."

When Peng Gang saw that the other two people had no objections, he could only announce: "Okay, everyone doesn't have to argue anymore. Luo Gong's set of standards can indeed be put on trial. We will currently collect collections. If any company is willing, they can join this A plan.”

Luo Yao added at this time: "If you don't want to, I think there is no need to participate in this battery experiment."

He arranged the ratings at the top just to see the reaction of these car companies.

In his opinion, the bigger the reaction, the weaker the chicken.

"I don't understand why you can't accept the grading."

Luo Yao actually has another underlying reason for openly recruiting cars for testing this time.

He needs data on existing vehicles.

The more data there is, the better it will be for Moss to learn.

But it doesn't matter now. It's not good for Little Moss to learn too much rubbish.

“Don’t computers and mobile phones have benchmarking systems?”

"Why can these manufacturers accept it, but you can't?"

“You don’t really think that when you make electric cars you are making cars, right?”

People from all the car companies looked at him and thought, what nonsense is this? What is manufacturing electric vehicles other than manufacturing cars?

Build airplanes?

"Mr. Luo, what do you think is involved in manufacturing electric vehicles?" Yu Dong asked with interest.

He found that Luo Yao would always come up with some ideas that he could not have imagined.

"It's electronics."

Yu Dong frowned, this answer was somewhat unexpected.

Luo Yao raised his hand and pointed to an electric car parked next to him. His eyes shone with confidence: "Because the core of an electric car is the battery and electronic control system, which are all part of electronic products."

"Electric vehicles are different from traditional fuel vehicles in that they rely more on electronic technology to achieve power transmission and control. From this perspective, electric vehicles are an electronic product."

"Moreover, consumers choose electric vehicles to enjoy a different experience, not a similar experience to gasoline vehicles."

"Based on the electric vehicles you manufacture, consumers might as well choose gasoline vehicles. At least the technology of gasoline vehicles is mature and refueling is convenient, right?"

"So, I just want to create different electronic products!"

These words are difficult for some people to understand, but some people have already reacted.

Luo Yao may not be good at building cars, but he is a top expert in electronic products!

The official side is also supporting him now. If you play with him, you will most likely not lose money!

Soon, Peng Gang received applications from five car companies.

The scores of the cars sent by the five car companies were all around 70, which can be regarded as meeting Luo Yao's requirements.

During the battery installation process, Luo Yao summoned people from five car companies and announced something.

"After installing the battery, we will go to the cold area to do experiments."

Cold zone test?

This is rarely done on ordinary cars!

Yu Dong quickly realized, had Luo Yao locked in a certain market in advance?
