"... This is the design drawing of Tesla's super factory, covering a total area of ​​13.6 million square feet. This side is full of wind turbines, the world's largest solar roof array plan. When fully completed, it will become one of the world's largest physical building structures and will greatly increase Tesla's electric vehicle production capacity.

The first super factory will be a manufacturing plant that does not use fossil fuels and relies entirely on electricity.

Through a combination of 70 rooftop solar arrays and solar ground facilities, we will use 100% of sustainable energy.

The area of ​​the newly-built rooftop solar array system is more than the area already in use, and it is currently 7 times the largest solar array system in the world ... "

Andy accompanied the Minister of Austria and New Energy to visit the very shocking full robot factory first, and opened a new concept flicker mode. Following the introduction of Tesla executives, he looked at the concept map of the so-called Tesla Super Factory. .

"Has the construction site been selected?"

Au Guanhai looked at the design of the super factory, his eyes brightened, and asked what he cared most.

The previous visit did give Aoguanhai a very shocking feeling. A car factory that no one has, all are highly efficient working scenarios of robots. It is both shocking and makes people feel that the factory of the future should be like this.

"Because the area is too large and enough sunlight is needed to satisfy the solar array, we are investigating several western states with large deserts." Andy was fishing with this super factory and saw fish When the child bites the hook, he will naturally say what the other party wants to hear in cooperation.

"Is this super factory a car factory?"

After hearing the question from Au Guanhai, this time Andy directly explained it himself: "It is a 'super battery factory' and an important chip for Tesla in the future. After completion, Tesla can greatly improve its battery pack. Production capacity, improving the current capacity problems encountered by Tesla.

However, its total cost may be as high as US $ 5 billion. After completion, it will provide Tesla with an annual production capacity of 500,000 batteries ... "

"When are you going to start this plan?" After seeing each other with the Minister of Energy, Okuanhai asked Andy.

"We also want to start building it as soon as possible. After all, our battery technology has made a breakthrough, but there is not enough money, it is very insufficient!" Andy said, shaking his head helplessly.

"Oh, don't be kidding, but you are Andy Smith, you will not have enough money?" Oguanhai laughed and laughed, and everyone around him could not help laughing.

"One carrot and one pit, the richest man has no spare money." Andy also said with a smile.

"Hahaha ..."

The crowd laughed, and the atmosphere became more cheerful. Austrian Seaside asked with a smile, "You said before, have you made a new breakthrough in battery technology?"

"Yes, our MIT scientists invested and supported by Tesla have developed a new battery material processing technology that can be used to make smaller rechargeable batteries. The charge and discharge speed is expected to be shortened to a few minutes or even A few seconds, not hours.

This technology has the potential to significantly reduce the charging time of mobile phones and laptops, and can also be used to make electric cars with better acceleration performance. "

Andy introduced with a touch of pride and pride, that technology is the first productive force. As long as Tesla's electric vehicle technology maintains the world's leading position, Andy is not worried about Tesla's crash.

"The technological progress of this new battery is revolutionary for the industry!" The new energy minister on the side naturally knew the importance of this new technology and did not hesitate to praise and approve it.

After hearing the approval of the Minister of Energy, Au Guanhai nodded with a smile and reached out and patted Andy's back. They seemed very close to each other and said, "Andy, let's take a look at your new car. Outside, for Your els plan is always watching. "

"Oh, no problem, Mr. President, please, Minister please." Andy with a bright smile on his face, stretched out his hand for an invitation, and walked towards Tesla's vehicle test site together.

If the beginning of 2008 was a year of Tesla's life and death, then 2009 was a continuous year. After being officially taken over by Andy Smith, the explosive force of the battle, the entire Tesla has undergone dramatic changes. The biggest change is No need to tighten your belt.

In 2008, according to the requirements of big boss Andy Smith, the els plan started quickly, and the design, testing and prototype manufacturing were successfully completed in early February 2009. For a young car company whose first product is not yet fully mature In other words, I have to say that the team's creativity and execution are amazing.

Standing outside the car, Andy looked at the els test car with a smile on his face, listened carefully to the president of the els R & D engineer, Oguanhai, and looked at the streamlined appearance of the els prototype. Andy wants Tesla to be far ahead of competitors in terms of product design, technology accumulation and business model construction. Only in this way can Tesla survive better and grow stronger.

"Very good, I think this is the most beautiful, most advanced and cheap electric car in the world!" After getting a detailed understanding of els electric cars, Aoguanhai stepped out of the car and praised his beautiful words without compromising.

"Don't look, all countries are full of confidence in reducing carbon emissions and vowed, but it will not be easy to do so. In the future, electric vehicles will definitely be valued and promoted by more and more governments."

Hearing this as President Okuanhai said that everyone present nodded and echoed.

"Andy, let's talk ..."

"It's my pleasure, Mr. President, please."

Hearing the conversation between the two, the others stopped with interest. Au Guanhai took off his suit, put one hand in his pants pocket, and carried the suit on his shoulder with one hand. He smiled and Andy walked along the Tesla campus. Chat, Secret Service agents and Andy's bodyguards scattered around, keeping the two in a protective circle at all times.

"Andy, I have to say, esla gives a stunning feeling, but this is also expected, you are in the most difficult and expensive car industry to innovate, through world-class teams, idealized leaders and The good entrepreneurial environment in Silicon Valley is very lucky to survive and grow. At the same time, the technological advances it brings are revolutionary to the industry. As an American, I pay the highest respect to Tesla. "

"Thank you!" Andy thanked Au Guanhai for his compliment and calmly smiled, walking with him in the park. "For innovation, I have always told them that you need to be naive and naive, because if you are too mature, you It will be very clear about the difficulties you are about to withdraw, they are a very good group of guys, they are doing a good job. "

"Oh, it's more than good. By the way, Andy, I heard that Tesla intends to acquire the new United Automobile Manufacturing Company to increase production capacity? How is the progress?" Aoguanhai smiled and seemed concerned. Asked.

Andy knows that the ru drama is here. If you want to get a loan again from Aoguanhai, then this 'fragrant bait' thrown out early is an important part of it.

New United Motors is facing bankruptcy, and the bankruptcy of such a plant will cause 5,000 people to lose their jobs. At the same time, their Tesla company is worried that it does not have a complete car production line to mass produce its own electric cars.

In this way, Andy sent people to talk about the new United Automobile Manufacturing Company, and at the same time, they expressed their wishes to acquire the latter, in order to show the Okuanhai government that they can solve more business problems, so that they can Arousing the attention of the White House, Tesla can be supported again.

I have to say that this strategy worked.

"Yes, we do have the idea of ​​acquiring the other party, just to make up for our own capacity problems, but the key is the price. In fact, the external question is correct. The green energy industry is indeed a money-burning industry. R & D and experiments. It ’s too expensive, especially for mass production. Mr. President, do n’t look at the results of the els model now, but for mass production, I do n’t know when to wait, because I ca n’t afford that much money. In particular, we also have a super charging station project. Hey, now I think of this, I have a headache ... "

Andy started crying poorly without 13 faces. This world is like this. Children who cry will have nai to drink, not to mention that Au Guanhai is also his own calculation. When this time, do n’t cry, when do you cry poor.

"Oh, okay, Andy, let's say, how much do you want?" Aoguanhai naturally knew what Andy meant, but for him who is now in the midst of many criticisms and questions, he urgently needs a bright spot It is more appropriate to disperse the firepower and the dissatisfaction of the people. There is nothing to solve the problem of 5,000 people's unemployment.

"500 million ..." Andy stretched out his palm with a smile and signaled in front of Aoguanhai: "Give us another 500 million US dollars of interest-free loans, we can not only acquire United Automobile Manufacturing Company, we can also officially start For mass production of els, 5,000 car builders are definitely not enough. We will also need a large number of skilled workers. "

"Yes." Aoguanhai agreed without hesitation, but looked a little more serious and Andy said, "But, Andy, you also know that the reform ability of the new government has been questioned, and many policies Being accused of driving in reverse, I hope to support you and become a highlight, and I also look forward to boosting the economy from energy reform. "

"Of course, I will never let my friends down! Without Mr. President's support, we would not be able to complete the acquisition of the United Company, let alone the mass production of the new model. In that case, we can only watch the United Company bankruptcy and workers. They are unemployed and unable to create new jobs ... "Andy smiled and said with great interest the promise that Guanguanhai wanted to hear.
