The so-called "limitation and dynamic adjustment of space transmission efficiency" simply refers to controlling the transmission efficiency to strive for greater energy conservation and safety assurance.
This is much like a conventional car, which cannot constantly maintain the state of highest fuel consumption.
Whether it’s a new-energy electric vehicle or an ordinary fuel car, the control over operating power is very flexible.
To put it simply, when a car is moving slowly, fuel consumption is relatively lower.
However, with power devices manufactured using space energy transmission technology, the control tends to be much less precise.
This is a drawback.
Every technology has its advantages and disadvantages. Compared to conventional cars, space energy transmission control is not as flexible, and not being able to make timely micro-adjustments requires a control system.
It’s not that the car control is inflexible, but the control of the efficiency of the transmitted light energy is.
There are many methods to make car control more flexible, the simplest being to connect to a storage battery and use the battery as an intermediary for car control.
Or an energy discharge channel could be added directly to utilize excess energy for other tasks.
But no matter what method is used, as long as the efficiency of transmitted light energy is fixed, the control will be very inflexible.
Therefore, what Zhao Yi emphasized was the creation of an electronic control system to adjust the arrangement of satellite beams within the spatial linkage device.
Although it cannot be finely tuned on the fly, like a car’s transmission, sectional adjustments can significantly reduce energy wastage.
This method involves setting different levels.
For example, the light energy transmitted in the first gear could be converted into ten kilowatts of electric energy, the second gear twenty kilowatts, and the third gear thirty kilowatts.
And so on.
Although a preliminary design had been established, in fact, the electrical power that the receiving device could convert had not yet been confirmed.
Zhao Yi’s initial setting was around three hundred million kilowatts, which was bound to be adjusted upward for the manufacture of higher-performance cars.
This area would still require coordination with car manufacturers to develop a power rating that is realistic and ensures the performance of the car.
Once the control system was made, related controls would just be a matter of parameter adjustments.
Zhao Yi outlined the work in the meeting, which was to create an electronic control system and a detection system.
The electronic control system just needed to have a basic structure built, leaving a port for specific adjustments, because it involved confidential micro-adjustment of the core light beams of the space linkage device, and this work still needed to be led by Zhao Yi.
The detection side, however, was much more flexible.
The detection system they were to create would only target the power, temperature, and pressure sensors on the receiving end, while other aspects would require cooperation with automotive manufacturers to design a system together.
Therefore, the next step was to find a professional automotive manufacturing partner.
Although the Energy-Gathering Satellite orbiting the sun was still in the manufacturing process, Zhao Yi had full confidence, and all the preliminary preparations could be done. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
Yixing Technology soon released the news, which also sparked discussions within the industry.
Many domestic car manufacturers received the news, and they sent representatives or even their heads directly to Yixing Technology to learn more.
Yixing Technology specialized in spacecraft development and, with Zhao Yi at the helm, definitely possessed high-tech knowledge, which was very attractive in the automotive field.
Many automotive manufacturers subconsciously believed that Yixing Technology planned to enter the new energy vehicle market by using its high-tech capabilities to collaborate with car manufacturers and produce a concept car.
Although it was just a concept car, its release was sure to attract attention and could make the automotive manufacturers more famous.
What they did not consider was that Yixing Technology was genuinely aiming to enter the car market.
When they heard that Yixing Technology had mastered a new electrical power technology and intended to use it to enter the car market and build its own brand, many car manufacturers immediately lost interest.
This was mainly because the message Yixing Technology conveyed was looking for an "OEM factory!"
Well-known car manufacturers certainly wouldn’t serve as OEM factories for others, as their core development was constructing car brands, not producing products to be branded by other companies.
Of course.
There were companies that were interested, but most were second-tier or third-tier brands. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
One of the top second-tier car manufacturers, called Changyuan Auto, did show interest. Changyuan Auto was an old domestic brand that had been famous for over a decade. However, in recent years, its sales performance had been declining, quickly sliding from a first-tier brand to second-tier, and it was even suffering losses for two years.
As its market share continued to shrink, Changyuan Auto could be said to be on the verge of bankruptcy.
Du Hai, the head of Changyuan Auto, upon hearing the industry rumors, immediately went to Yixing Technology.
While other major manufacturers were not interested in being Yixing Technology’s "OEM factory," Du Hai was somewhat interested, mainly because, as the car market share shrank and the company kept losing money, they hoped to find a profitable business.
Being an OEM factory for Yixing Technology, although the cars made couldn’t bear their own brand, there was a very high likelihood of profit.
Profit was better than loss.
For Changyuan Auto, brand development was a "long-term" matter, and the most important thing was to survive in the automotive industry.
