Rebirth 2004: I can make money by writing.

Hao Qiang's rigorous attitude and professionalism left a deep impression on the island team.

The next morning, Hao Qiang came to the automobile factory again in high spirits.

We go deep into every corner and carefully check every detail to ensure that no potential hidden dangers or problems are missed, and strive to rectify them before mass production.

During the inspection, Hao Qiangchu communicated with on-site engineers and installers from time to time, and listened patiently to their opinions and suggestions.

Frontline installers can often provide the most practical and valuable information.

It was not until the fourth day that Hao Qiang left the Pengcheng factory.

March is the month for government honors.

Every year, Future Technology Group will apply for the National Science and Technology Invention Award,

Last year, we applied for two projects, one of which won the second prize of the National Science and Technology Invention Award.

This year, the same is true.

It is very difficult to win the first prize of the National Science and Technology Invention Award.

Unless a few years later, the company applies for chip-related technology and the technology level reaches the international top level.

Other technologies have not yet reached the level of the first prize of the National Science and Technology Invention Award, and it is not because the judges are biased.

There is no limit or ranking for the number of first and second prizes in the National Science and Technology Invention Awards every year. If you have achieved the goal, you will get one. If you have not, you will not get one.

At present, Future Technology Group has won one first prize in the National Science and Technology Invention Award, three second prizes in the National Science and Technology Invention Award, and two first prizes in the National Science and Technology Progress Award.

This achievement of winning at least one second-class National Science and Technology Invention Award every year is difficult to achieve even for top universities like Qingdao University.

For the next period of time, Hao Qiang continued to immerse himself in the laboratory and mingled with front-line R&D personnel.

The four secretaries finally understood Hao Qiang's temper.

Hao Qiang is really a scientific research geek!

In the middle of the month,

The vehicle vibration reduction optimization work of ES6 will be completed in the future.

This means that the fixture can continue.

For robots installed on site, technicians can perform offline programming according to the latest 3D drawings and start simulating the production line.

Fine-tuning will be done after the actual product is produced.

Whether it can be mass-produced depends mainly on this stage.

As long as the stamping and body welding are stable, the subsequent processes can be guaranteed and mass production can be carried out.

If the molding is inconsistent, for example, the error of the car door sheet metal reaches 1 mm, it will not be accurate when it comes to welding and installation, and the subsequent processes cannot be guaranteed.

The more complex the structure, for example, if there are too many curved surfaces and many bends, the greater the error in the manufactured parts will be.

It is easy to design but difficult to manufacture, that's the reason.

March 15th, morning.

Liu Yixiang, general manager of Future Intelligent Technology Company, walked into Hao Qiang's office, his expression a little excited and nervous. "Hello, Chairman, the car computer system Future 1.0 has been successfully developed. Please accept its inspection."

Hao Qiang raised his head and his eyes fell on the young and promising general manager. After a moment's thought, he replied, "Very good. Let's arrange it for 2 p.m."

Liu Yixiang has an enviable academic background and career experience.

He graduated from the top domestic university, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, and then went to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to pursue a master's and doctoral degree.

After graduation, he worked for technology giants Pingguo Company and Huawei for two years each, accumulating rich practical experience.

It was precisely with such an excellent resume that Liu Yixiang came to Future Technology Group through headhunter recommendation.

During the interview, Hao Qiang was deeply impressed by his professional knowledge, which prompted him to spend a lot of money to recruit him.

There is a shortage of top computer talents in China.

Globally, most outstanding computer talents are concentrated in technology hubs such as Silicon Valley.

After reporting, Liu Yixiang left the chairman's office.

This Future 1.0 system was mainly developed by Hao Qiang.

Based on current hardware conditions, Hao Qiang has more than doubled the performance of the first generation Future 1.0.

The in-vehicle environment is complex and changeable, and the system needs to maintain stable operation under harsh conditions such as high temperature, low temperature, and vibration to avoid failures that affect driving safety.

After optimization by Hao Qiang, the current Future 1.0 can respond quickly, and key functions such as navigation and ADAS have extremely low latency.

At the same time, the human-computer interaction design is also very simple.

At two o'clock in the afternoon,

Hao Qiang arrived at the first floor of the Automobile Research Institute laboratory on time.

There was a future ES6 prototype parked on site, with more than a dozen engineers and technicians testing data on site.

When Liu Yixiang saw the chairman coming, he handed him a test plan.

This plan includes standard requirements for various tests and company test data.

It includes fifteen major items and nearly a hundred sub-items, including basic function testing (navigation, multimedia, communication, etc.), user interface testing, multi-tasking capability testing, performance testing (startup time testing, response speed testing, resource usage testing, power consumption testing), stability testing, security testing, user experience testing (usability testing, human-computer interaction testing, visual comfort testing), positioning and navigation testing, and network connection testing.

It will take at least one day to inspect all of them.

After Hao Qiang roughly understood the situation, he said, "Let's start with the first item. I'll do it."

"Okay." Liu Yixiang nodded and sat in the passenger seat, while the other two engineers sat in the back seat.

Hao Qiang sat in the driver's seat and adjusted the seat.

"First, the one-button start car computer response speed!"

The future ES6 is already equipped with a one-button start function.

Hao Qiang pressed the start button and paid close attention to the startup response speed of the car computer.

As the button is pressed, the car's audio and electric motor start at the same time.

"Chairman, 2.36 seconds!" The tester quickly reported the recorded time.

Hao Qiang nodded slightly, expressing satisfaction with the response speed.

For some cars, it takes a long time for the car computer to respond after pressing the one-button start, which feels like Alzheimer's disease.

To ensure the accuracy of the data, Hao Qiang shut down the system, paused for a moment, and then started it again.

He repeated this three times and took the average.

Considering the current hardware level and the numerous software that will be loaded into the future 1.0 system, Hao Qiang is very satisfied with the average response time of 2.4 seconds.

Next, they began testing the second item: navigation responsiveness.

Gaode Map has not yet been released to the market, and the system is currently loaded with offline Baidu Map.

Future Technology Group cooperates with Baidu.

"Hi, Future, navigate to Yuecheng Zhongda University!"

Hao Qiang directly used the voice navigation function to call the system.

Future 1.0 sets "Hi, Future" as the wake-up word. The extra word "Hi" is added to avoid accidental operations.

It is worth mentioning that voice control is not new in the automotive field.

As early as 1996, BMW first introduced a simple voice control system on the 7 Series.

In 2004, Honda introduced a navigation system with voice recognition.

"Okay, navigating..."

A gentle mechanical voice came from the car speakers.

In less than three seconds, a little more than two seconds, the search results came out. There were several results in total for the car owner to choose from.

Hao Qiang's expression was indifferent: "The second one."

As soon as he finished speaking, the navigation immediately switched to the second one and a pop-up message popped up asking:

"Do you want to start navigation?"

"Start navigation!"

The turn image is immediately displayed on the large screen, showing the navigation route.

Hao Qiang: "End navigation!"

Car computer: "Navigation has ended"

Next, Hao Qiang navigated to another place and even deliberately shouted: "The future, navigate to your heart."

Car computer: "Oh, owner, I'm embarrassed if you say that."

Hearing the soft response from the car computer, everyone in the car couldn't help laughing.

It's quite anthropomorphic.

Of course, these are all programs, written by humans.

Hao Qiang smiled and then tested the voice interaction test in a noisy environment.

During driving, the noise will definitely be loud, and if voice control is not possible, then it will be useless.

Fortunately, there is some interference, but the impact is not significant.

The car system mainly focuses on keywords.

There won’t be much voice control in Future 1.0, mainly navigation, after all, the hardware is backward.

Since it is not a touch screen, many button designs are added.

On that day, Hao Qiang tested dozens of items.

The next day, Hao Qiang continued to inspect Future 1.0.

There are still some minor issues that need to be further optimized.

This car system has been optimized countless times. If you don’t have a little patience, you will collapse.

Hao Qiang has very strict requirements on the car computer system and strives for perfection.

Originally planning to exhibit at the Canton Fair, Hao Qiang continued to postpone it.

According to the current progress of the automobile factory, pre-sales may not be possible until August, and mass production must be carried out in September.

That is, as long as the small-batch production task is completed, pre-sales can be launched.

Before the pre-sale, the company will continue to reveal the future progress of ES6, such as the future ES6 model.

As for the second car, the future ET3, mass production will be delayed by half a year.
