God-level Trader of Rebirth

Everyone in the car smiled, and another executive from Conix asked: "General Manager Changgu Yu, we have seen the relevant technical information about your company's hydrogen fuel cell. Could you please bring it this time?" Samples coming?”

Hase Jo knows that Westerners don't understand Japanese titles such as president, so they usually refer to Western general managers.

Therefore, he didn't take it seriously when the other party called him general manager.

He said respectfully: "Sir, we have brought the latest third-generation hydrogen fuel cell this time. There are three models and twelve styles, which can correspond to small family cars, off-road vehicles, cargo trucks, etc. Large buses, etc.”

Kedel nodded with a smile and took over the conversation: "I have already read the information. When I get to the company later, please ask the general manager to submit the samples to us. We will ask the local testing department in Rotterdam to conduct all-round testing."

"If it is indeed consistent with the indicators listed in the data, we will customize a prototype vehicle for further testing."

"Hey, you should have told me earlier!" Thomas held a cigar in his hand and raised his head and said, "We are already in Qiongzhou Province working with a Chinese automobile company to produce a prototype car."

"If you had said you wanted to see the prototype car, we would have brought it here directly. Why make an extra trip?"

"An automobile factory in China?" Kedel frowned, looked at other company executives, and said, "China's automobile industry doesn't seem to be very good. Can they make prototype cars that meet our requirements?"

"Don't worry, this car factory has signed a technical cooperation agreement with Porsche Germany, and has also introduced Porsche's engine, gearbox and other technologies. All equipment is imported from Germany."

"When I get to your company, I will ask my secretary to show you the design blueprint of the car. It looks so beautiful. I guarantee that you will fall in love with it as soon as you see it!"

Thomas waved his cigar carelessly and said confidently.

"Oh? Then we'll have to wait and see." Kedel leaned on the back of the sofa and said with a smile.

The design blueprints brought by Thomas indeed satisfied the top management of Conix.

The smooth exterior design removes unnecessary decoration and pursues a clear and intuitive design language, making the bus appearance more simple and modern, with a very "Scanavia" style.

It seems that Nordic aesthetic requirements were taken into consideration.

However, they still sought opinions from the company's bus drivers on the internal layout of the bus and some technical details, and then gave feedback to Thomas.

As for the hydrogen fuel cell brought by Longguyun, it was completely consistent with the data, and the sample even slightly exceeded the data they had learned before.

Soon, news came from China. According to the opinions of Conix, the design of the hydrogen fuel bus has been modified and will be put into actual manufacturing in the near future.

At the same time, they also invited Conix executives to go to China in person to see this new hydrogen fuel vehicle roll off the assembly line.

Thomas and the boss of Conix Company have been in secret contact for a long time, and of course they strongly invited him to come over.

Kedel was also eager to see the prototype. At the same time, he also wanted to see if the automobile factory in Qiongzhou could produce a large bus that met the standards.

The quality of the production line, materials used, technical level, inspection quality, etc. are all the focus of his concern.

Therefore, when faced with Thomas's invitation, Kedel did not refuse and rushed to China with a large number of testing personnel.

In Qiongzhou, they saw the car factory that cooperated with the Northern California company.

This is a newly built automobile factory. Kedel and the others came to Qiongzhou and felt the bright and clean seaside scenery here, and their mood became particularly good.

They came to visit the automobile factory and saw the clean factory area, the clean plant leaves in the flowerbeds, and the clean factory automated production lines for some precision components in the factory workshop.

The construction of this automobile factory began before the solar power station was built.

The production of components such as motors and gearboxes all uses fully automatic production lines customized by Infinite Company. The processing accuracy exceeds that of ordinary automobile manufacturers.

Even compared to famous brand car manufacturers such as Mercedes-Benz and BMW, it is not much inferior.

The basic principle of hydrogen fuel cells is actually the reverse reaction process of electrolyzing water.

In this process, hydrogen and oxygen are supplied to the anode and cathode of the fuel cell respectively.

When the hydrogen reaches the anode, under the action of the catalyst, the hydrogen molecules dissociate into hydrogen protons (that is, hydrogen ions) and release electrons.

These electrons then flow through an external circuit to the cathode, creating an electric current.

Therefore, the fuel cell should actually be said to be a power generation device, not just an energy storage battery.

Therefore, cars manufactured using hydrogen fuel cells as power actually rely on electric power.

However, hydrogen fuel cell vehicles do not need to be recharged after the power is consumed like ordinary electric vehicles.

It only needs to replace the liquid hydrogen bottle and it can be restarted immediately.

Moreover, hydrogen-powered vehicles start quickly and accelerate from zero to 100 kilometers in just a few seconds. They are powerful and can fully satisfy the use of large-scale trucks.

Since the traditional internal combustion engine is not used, only high-power electric motors are used. Although the price of fuel cells is still very high at present, it will eventually be converted into future use, maintenance costs, etc.

Hydrogen energy vehicles are actually no more expensive than ordinary fuel vehicles.

Another advantage of it lies in the hydrogen-oxygen reaction. After the reverse reaction, electricity and water are produced.

Therefore, after a hydrogen fuel vehicle is started, what is discharged from the exhaust pipe at the rear of the vehicle is no longer the exhaust gas after incomplete combustion of the fuel, but pure water vapor!

This is incomparable to traditional cars.

In fact, when the prototype was built, Conix executives really liked it at first sight.

This hydrogen-powered bus can reach a top speed of 120 kilometers per hour. The powerful torque allows it to ride freely on the highway with a full load.

With a endurance of 580 kilometers, it doesn't matter even if you are running long distances. You only need to inject liquid at a fixed liquid hydrogen station or replace the liquid hydrogen bottle, and you can be back on the road immediately.

Bus routes are usually fixed, and the bus company can build a large hydrogen refueling station next to the terminal, which is enough to supply the daily fuel consumption of all buses.

On this point, Thomas has reached an agreement with Keidel.

They will jointly fund the establishment of five hydrogen refueling stations at major locations in Rotterdam to fill all the company's buses with liquid hydrogen.

They also know that as hydrogen fuel vehicles enter the commercial field, there will inevitably be more and more hydrogen fuel powered vehicles in the future.

The popularity of hydrogen fuel-powered vehicles will also fill the hydrogen refueling stations with cars waiting for hydrogen refueling, allowing them to earn a steady stream of money, so they are naturally willing to invest.

On the other hand, high-welfare countries like the Netherlands have always strongly supported new energy and non-polluting industries.

Since their hydrogen-powered buses have almost no pollution, the Dutch government decided to provide certain subsidies and considerable tax benefits to Conix after investigation.

Small hydrogen-powered family cars have also been put on the research and development agenda of Qiongzhou Automobile Factory.

I think it won't take many years before it will gradually enter the garage of ordinary people.

The two sides tasted the sweetness in the Netherlands and then moved to Iceland.

In the late 1990s, Daimler (the parent company of Mercedes-Benz) and Shell intended to build Iceland into a "hydrogen economy" country, planning to use non-polluting hydrogen fuel vehicles to replace all current gasoline fuels. Power car.

They have invested heavily in this over the years, but due to various reasons, the progress has not been significant.

Qiongzhou Automobile and Northern California Solar Energy Company suddenly emerged. They brought their hydrogen fuel concept cars to Iceland and promoted them in a high-profile manner.

Northern California Solar Energy Company has also jointly built hydrogen refueling stations in eight regions across the country with several local companies in Iceland.

By then, as long as people buy hydrogen energy vehicles, they will no longer have to worry about filling with liquid hydrogen.

Since then, the Northern California Solar Company has made the same move as Shell did when it opened gas stations around the world and monopolized the global energy supply.

While continuing to expand hydrogen production plants and develop hydrogen energy vehicles, we are also building hydrogen fuel supply stations around the world.

These liquid hydrogen supply stations may be separated from Shell gas stations by just a wall.

Although there are always long queues outside Shell's gas stations, there are still relatively few vehicles coming to refill liquid hydrogen at the company's liquid hydrogen supply station in Northern California.

However, their futures are completely different.

On one side, the sunset industry is heading towards dusk.

On one side, there is a sunrise industry with a bright future.

When the scale of solar power stations and hydrogen production plants becomes large enough, the petroleum industry will be swept into the garbage dump of history by the new energy industry, and will never regain its original pride.

At the same time, since solar energy will never be exhausted, compared with the glory of the oil industry for one or two hundred years, the solar energy industry will inevitably be more durable.

April 16, 2011. (later than history)

Following the establishment of the "GEM", China Capital Market launched "stock index futures" trading.

On this day, the first batch of four CSI 300 stock index futures were officially listed for trading on the China Financial Exchange.

This marks another major breakthrough in China's capital market reform and futures market development.

The launch of stock index futures is of great significance for improving the structure of China's capital market, enriching investment strategies, and promoting stable development of the market.

July 2011.

Another new news spread.

Toyota, Qiongzhou Automotive Power Company, and Saudi Arabian Light Aircraft Company jointly modified a two-seater aircraft, which used hydrogen fuel power and successfully flew into the blue sky.

At the press conference, the spokesperson was more cautious, saying that this was only the first step and could only be used for light aircraft for the time being, and could not yet provide power for large passenger aircraft.

But people can see that with the further deepening of the application of solar energy, the oil industry is being mercilessly squeezed out of the market.

The convenience brought by scientific and technological progress to people is vividly reflected in every aspect.

Metaverse, virtual world, brain-computer interface, genetic potion, solar energy, hydrogen energy, while people are enjoying the convenience brought by high and new technology, they are also lamenting that the world is changing with each passing day and moving towards a more brilliant tomorrow.

However, before people's sighs could stop, a piece of news that attracted the attention of the whole world came out.

The world's first practical aerospace plane officially took to the skies and reached a low orbit more than 800 kilometers away from Blue Star.

After that, it flew around the Blue Star in low orbit.

And successfully started the booster rocket, accelerated to the second cosmic speed, got rid of the gravitational constraints of the Blue Star, and successfully entered the transfer orbit to the moon!

All people who were still surprised by the progress of science and technology were immediately shocked by this news!

Has the aerospace plane, an ultra-high-speed aircraft that can take off like an airplane, fly freely inside and outside the atmosphere, and achieve seamless connection between the ground and space, really been put into use?

The United States is still conducting test flights of scaled-down prototypes and collecting data.

And China has already manufactured a full-scale aerospace plane and achieved a successful test flight?

According to some vague image data, the total length of this aerospace plane should not be less than 90 meters!

One shock leads to another, leaving people unable to keep their heads above water.

People really feel that a new era is quietly coming!

When did China's scientific and technological research and development strength surpass that of the West, so that it could take the lead in developing an aerospace aircraft?

No one knows the answer, except Infinity Corporation. (End of chapter)
