Chapter 356 Dual Motors

An Feng is now troubled by spending money.

It is almost routine. At the beginning of every year, this kind of "wealthy trouble" is repeatedly staged, and the more you play, the 1.25 billion personal income tax given by John occurs under the best circumstances of reasonable tax avoidance. According to the direct calculation of the tax law, Anfeng has to pay the huge personal income tax of US$3 billion to the tax bureau.

It can be deducted, but it does not mean that An Feng's taxable income can be used freely. The personal deduction amount is limited and the commercial expenditure amount is also limited. He has to strictly follow the procedures to consume it to reach 1.25 billion yuan in personal income tax. The actual personal income tax paid is often much higher than the ideal value.

This is why An Feng is considering spending money - he went to an investment company, bought a super cruise ship, and burned more than one billion yuan, which is better than paying taxes. It is of course a bit of a loss of 800 yuan for himself, but he can choose one of two situations of being able to dominate and hand over to the tax bureau. There is no doubt that the former is more acceptable.

To be more practical, he has no goal to invest in a company now.

For example, GP companies currently have sufficient funds to support any technological research and development and commercial operations. Moreover, their scientific research activities are based on correct theories. The cost of R&D is much less than that of other companies. Commercial operations are monopoly and are less troublesome.

Besides, the same is true for the research center. Anfeng only allocates patent authorization fees this time, and the commercial operations of research center companies, such as rapid cancer cure and dividends for anti-cancer drugs, are counted as hundreds of millions, which is enough for them to operate... The same goes for other companies.

They develop well and are well-funded and obviously do not require reinvestment.

"So it's very troublesome now." An Feng confided to Joanna.

After hearing An Feng's distress, she came up with an idea: "You can consider a longer-term situation, nuclear energy, global warming and other things you mentioned earlier."

"This is also a plan," said An Feng.

An Feng decided to make a longer-term plan, considering the development of robots. He invested in two more 3D printers, one spent tens of millions of dollars, and another one invested in a superconductor project of one billion dollars, to develop derivatives such as superconducting generators, magnetofluids and nuclear fusion reactions in addition to superconductors.

Later, there was a problem with quantum technology. He decided to set up an independent research institution and prepare a $500 million fund to help them break through faster - of course, the employees are the original, and even the office is the original, just an institution independent of the GP company. It is convenient to use funds.

Finally, he invested $100 million in the "Green Earth Project" and set up another $500 million fund to support the development of the program. He then linked An's industrial's desalination project to the Green Earth to form a closer cooperative team, and hired a group of environmental analysts.

A few spend money in the long run. Two billion dollars have their whereabouts. It covers future global quantum communication, quantum computing and artificial intelligence, robots and stereo forming technology, future green earth and clean energy. There is no doubt that they are options that have potential in the future and are also in line with Anfeng's goal.

Spending so much money can already offset the personal income tax of 700 million yuan, which is mostly commercial expenses. He can spend money more easily, such as buying some collectibles. Prepare some jewelry or luxury jewelry for Joanna, then decorate his overseas island, and continue to burn money on sports.

Considering that his consumption demand in the United States is almost saturated, this means that private demand has begun to decline, so he plans to convert more profitable shares into offshore companies, which can avoid many taxes. Of course, the consumption of the company's account is not convenient enough, but paying taxes is even more inconvenient.

...

A few days later, An Feng was invited to the racing stadium for a test drive.

He only observed the last time the Maserati pure electric vehicle test, but did not have a practical experience. However, for a person who loves cars, being able to drive a brand new model to run on the track is a very passionate thing. North American president Bruno also saw this.

Of course, anyone who sees Anfeng’s museum can understand the hearts of the venue owner.

This time, Anfeng was invited to participate in the test of two models, namely the "President" of the luxury sedan and the "GT" of the sports car. In fact, it has been tested and both cars can be mass-produced. The pure electric model will be unveiled at the Geneva Auto Show in March this year.

After An Feng took a helicopter to the racing stadium, the vehicle was ready.

Bruno and the racing stadium manager Robert were both there. After they shook hands with each other, Bruno said: "I heard from Mr. Robert, "Mr. An, you are an amateur driver, your skills are no less than professionalism. Please forgive me for not seeing it last time. I didn't expect Mr. to have such a wide range of interests."

An Feng smiled: "I treat it as an attitude and like high-speed exercise."

"They will surprise you!" Bruno said, moving away from him, two cars behind him, the president of Champagne Gold and the GT of Carbon Black.

An Feng walked to the president: "What are the changes?"

Bruno said: "Compared with the large-volume single motor last time, it is too large in mass. This time we launched a dual motor, with a combined output of 550 horsepower, mainly comfort, accelerated by 100 kilometers for 4.2 seconds, and the top speed is 305 kilometers. Under normal scale, a single motor rear-drive can be used, which is more power-saving and has a mileage of 650 kilometers. In dual motor mode, the power optimization system can reach 450 kilometers."

"Dual motors? So cool!" An Feng's eyes lit up.

He couldn't wait to get on the car for testing, and the interior has changed greatly compared to the past. The central control instrument panel was replaced with an LCD display, and there was also a large-sized display device next to it. In addition, the HUD (head-up display) function was added, which could display speed, power and other information on the windshield and lift up to drive.

After running the F1 track for a few laps, it is naturally impossible to be as surging as a sports car. An Feng also judged it according to the standards of luxury cars. The result is very satisfactory, with fast acceleration, strong and powerful start, and very small sound, and the car is very quiet.

The power mode switching is very simple. In single motor mode, the vehicle speed is up to 150, which is suitable for almost all roads. If you want to get more powerful power, turn on the dual motor mode, it can achieve a 100-year-old power in four seconds, and the power will continue to rise, and it can reach a speed of more than 305 kilometers per hour.

An Feng suggested increasing the luxury level. This time Maserati was added, and the president finally had a presidential look. Multimedia equipment was added to the rear seat, the central armrest has a small refrigerator, which can hold two bottles of champagne, and there are also shrinking computer desks, seat massage and other functions.

It looks similar to the gasoline version on the outside. But the inside has changed, and it feels very atmospheric whether it is riding or driving. After getting off the car, it is as fashionable as ever, and the exhaust pipe disappearing at the rear of the car shows its special identity and enjoys the high-end.

Next is the most anticipated sports car.

As a sports car that pursues comfort, the Maserati GT gives people the impression of being gentle, without the irritability and madness of its fellow Ferrari, which is just average. This time, Brono said: "It is also a dual motor. It uses a high-performance battery. The motor can output 630 horsepower and maintain an acceleration of 100 kilometers in 3.2 seconds. The maximum speed can reach 335 kilometers per hour, and the single motor range is 600 kilometers."

An Feng looked carefully and saw that the appearance had changed. The body that compromised to aerodynamics was smoother. The previous GT speed did not exceed 300, and it took four or five seconds to break 100. This time the opponent changed to Ferrari's best-selling model 458, or even a higher-level F12. The performance can only be described as mania.

According to what Bruno said, the electric motor is very small, with a single unit of 20 kilograms. What does this mean? As for the V8 engine, the weight is generally between 180 and 200 kilograms, and the Lamborghini V12 engine weighs more than 230 kilograms, and the current power core is only 40 kilograms.

When you wear a helmet, it has two seats, not the previous two-door four-seater. In order to pursue lightweight, the seats are racing seats. Fixed and relatively hard. The central control has also been simplified. There is only a large LCD display, which can be used to display the head up, allowing the driver to focus more on driving.

Anfeng presses the start button and starts the motor.

The pure electric sound is very slight. Compared with the past, it does not have a clutch and there are no paddles behind the steering wheel. There are several main keys at hand, such as reverse, normal gear, and hill climbing gear. In addition, there are three modes: sports, track and ESC-OFF.

It seems that it is born for racing, and even skipped the comfort mode.

An Feng ran in sports mode first. When he stepped on the electric door, he couldn't hear the roar of the engine. The feeling of pushing the back surged directly. His body pressed tightly on the seat, watching the speed of the digital display continue to rise. Before reaching the first corner, the speed of the sports car had reached 280 kilometers per hour.

The strongest supercar Anfeng has driven can reach 310 before high-speed cornering. In sports mode, the performance of the GT is also outstanding. Continue to turn around, brake and slow down, and accelerate on the electric door... After several consecutive hairpin bends and high-speed bends, Anfeng's least adaptable is that he does not need to change speed.

In the past, I always controlled the gear accurately and maintained the speed, but now I just stepped on the electric gate and saw that the motor's speed exceeded 10,000 or 20,000. The high speed was comparable to the F1 racing car. In addition, the motor's utilization rate of energy exceeds 85%, which is far higher than the gasoline level and is faster.

After running five laps in a row, Anfeng's fastest lap speed was 1 minute and 43 seconds, and the electric car was against the will! Although it takes 3.2 seconds to accelerate from 100 kilometers, the motor will not be ineffective in the acceleration section of 0-200 kilometers and 0-300 kilometers. It has endless power at any speed.

After the test run, An Feng sighed: "Dual motors are simply a new era for electric vehicles!"

"This is of course." Bruno also believes that "as long as the electricity is guaranteed, the development of electric motors will be more vigorous. At present, we have only tapped the potential of a small number of motors, but the gasoline engine has almost reached its limit, and it will definitely be electric in the future."

They were also talking about the cost issue.

The performance is so outstanding and the cost is not low. The high-performance version of the battery is tailored for it by GP Energy, and even the battery system can use resources most reasonably. In addition, although the motor is assembled, the core components are purchased and they perform performance debugging.

The cost of these two is very high. Fortunately, the market positioning of this model has been improved. Its competitors are no longer the original ordinary sports car, but the Ferrari 458, Lamborghini Huracan, and Porsche 911. The price can also be increased to the level of 200,000 to 250,000 US dollars.

By this calculation, the profit is actually pretty good.

But how to promote it and change people’s previous inherent impressions? Let more people know that after breaking up with Fiat, Maserati has already risen?

An Feng had an idea: "How about holding a series of events?"

Bruno asked: "Specific?"

"In the United States, if you find three to five event venues and provide racing to attract drivers with high rewards, it will take ten to fifteen drivers. Just like your previous Trofeo-MC World Championships, you will be in a MC challenge that promotes pure electric power. How about it?"

Bruno nodded: "It's a good idea."
