Chapter 36: Chapter 36 Testing the Car Chapter 36: Chapter 36 Testing the Car Editor: virtual group Several days later, He Xingzhou completed the first draft of the magnetic levitation motor design. However, this version was not very practical, and after discussing with the team of experts and engineers, he realized his design still had to be based on the current industrial manufacturing level. In the realms of high-end industrial manufacturing and precision machining, countries like Germany, the UK, and Japan are still one step ahead. Therefore, He Xingzhou made several revisions to the design of the magnetic levitation motor until he settled on a model that met manufacturing processes and was cost-effective. The design blueprints were sent to an automobile parts factory in the northeast, where professional engineers took on the manufacturing. A week later, Guo Cheng, an engineer from the First Automotive Group, sent a message to He Xingzhou at the Tower Research Institute: “Mr. He, the magnetic levitation motor has been manufactured and is ready for testing!” Mr. He has become his new title, as people found it difficult to address He Xingzhou due to his age; calling him Comrade He Xingzhou seemed too distant. Considering he is the chief designer of the Steel Great Wall project, everyone, following engineering convention, addressed him as Mr. He, the Chief Engineer. “Good, I will come immediately!” replied He Xingzhou. “Brother Ding, arrange the plane at once, I need to head to the automotive factory in the northeast!” He Xingzhou shouted into the communicator. “Ready to go at any time!” Ding Yue immediately went to the airstrip to prepare the plane. The resources required for the Xuanwu Plan were too diverse, and it was impossible to conduct all scientific research and manufacturing at the Tower Research Institute. Many facilities had to be borrowed from other institutes or factories, so the Xuanwu Executive Officers arranged a private jet for He Xingzhou’s command and action. It was a modified armed helicopter with an aerospace license from the military, capable of flying directly anywhere in the country, and even to various military bases! Ding Yue, as a professional special forces soldier, was also well-versed in piloting aircraft. A little more than an hour later, He Xingzhou arrived at the factory and was met by anxious automotive engineers. In the testing workshop, He Xingzhou met with Guo Cheng, the engineer responsible for the design of the magnetic levitation motor and the electromagnetic floating car, as well as Feng Yue, a senior vice president of Huaxia’s First Automotive Group. It’s worth mentioning that Feng Yue was not part of the executors of the Xuanwu Plan, so he did not know the true purpose of He Xingzhou’s visit; he only knew that He Xingzhou was a scientist sent by the National Academy of Sciences to develop a new type of motor for electric cars. “Mr. He, welcome to our factory!” Feng Yue was full of question marks upon seeing He Xingzhou, having met many academicians from the Academy of Sciences and the engineering institutions, most of whom were over fifty years old! He wondered what kind of status He Xingzhou had to be held in such high regard. The headquarters even issued a document mandating that the entire group cooperate with his research work! And how could someone of his young age have developed the metal-air battery? “Mr. Feng.” He Xingzhou shook hands with him, and Guo Cheng said, “Mr. He, the finished magnetic levitation motor is inside the testing workshop, ready for testing at any time.” “Let’s get started then,” said He Xingzhou. He Xingzhou followed him into the workshop where a group of engineers and technicians were waiting. “This magnetic levitation motor is different from our traditional ones. It not only has bearing magnetic levitation, but it can also produce a strong repulsive force, maintaining the entire structure in a levitated state.” “It’s more accurate to call it a magnetic levitation motor assembly rather than just a motor. It includes the battery, the motor, the electromagnetic converter, and several other structures. It’s the heart of the entire electromagnetic levitation car!” He Xingzhou said this to the camera; planning to edit and include this footage in a video. The first video released generated an enthusiastic response, bringing great benefits to him and the research institute. According to Xu Zhilan, the battery technology licensing contracts already signed had exceeded two billion, with more in negotiations! Currently, the stance of the Xuanwu Plan executives is that the Xuanwu Plan must remain absolutely confidential, but He Xingzhou’s technology promotions may continue. As for how the outside world speculates and wonders, there’s no need to pay attention for now; they’ll wait until they are ready with corresponding preparations to announce the Xuanwu Plan to both the people of the nation and the whole world! The entire magnetic levitation motor assembly appeared before He Xingzhou; it looked like a car chassis with battery units, motors, and electromagnetic converters mounted on top. Guo Cheng said, “According to our design, the chassis is made of magnetic materials. When the motor starts, it can transmit electromagnetic force creating a repulsive force with the magnetic material on the ground, achieving the goal of levitation.” “The greater the motor power, the higher the levitation and the faster the operation!” He Xingzhou carefully checked over the design of the magnetic levitation motor assembly, which had been optimized since his own design; confirming there were no issues, he said, “Let’s start then!” “Magnetic levitation motor assembly, ready for test run!” Guo Cheng shouted. The assembly was placed on the specially designed circular magnetic track, and everyone tensed up. Everyone present was among the top domestic automotive engineers, mechanical engineers, and experts in dynamics, but at that moment, their feelings were akin to students waiting for their college entrance exam results. In the automotive industry, precision engine technology has always been monopolized by foreign countries, and domestic car engines have never been able to perform as well as their international counterparts. Thus, in the automotive market, foreign brands dominate, monopolizing most of the industry’s profits. The wealth of the people of Huaxia relentlessly flows into the pockets of Western countries through these products. Desperate to catch up, countless engineers have been striving for decades without reaching the goal. They are resolute in breaking free from this situation, with some in the industry even despairingly believing that relying solely on the development of fuel engines is insufficient, and it is essential to take advantage of electric motors to overtake at the bend. Apart from being clean and environmentally friendly, this is also one of the reasons why the country vigorously promotes electric vehicles. Now, this magnetic levitation motor assembly represents another high point in the automobile field. Once it successfully completes its test run, it will inevitably change the entire automobile industry! This new force of magnetic levitation motors will occupy the heights of automotive engine technology, allowing domestic cars and related industries to gain international discourse power! Within minutes, the technicians had all prepared. Feng Yue became nervous, his palms sweaty. “Three, two, one, start!” shouted He Xingzhou, pressing the specially designed wireless signal device, and the magnetic levitation motor assembly began to operate. The Lithium Air Battery’s electricity drove the rotation of the motor, which converted the electrical energy into electromagnetic force, generating a magnetic field through the magnetic materials. The force of this magnetic field repelled against the magnetic running track, and the “car chassis” slowly levitated about ten centimeters above the ground. Under normal operation, it wouldn’t levitate this high, as it would consume more power, but the magnetic levitation motor wasn’t loaded with weight at the moment, hence the higher levitation. “It’s floating!” an engineer shouted expectantly.
