Chapter 78 – Shuguang’s Competitor (1/2)
Sun Sikong continued, “Since the closure of this sort of metal is superb, the energy loss due to that is negligible. The small motor system is able to run for a million kilometers after it is filled with water!”
“A million kilometers? This is almost the maximum distance that current cars can run, no matter how good the car, they pretty much are busted after a million kilometers!” I exclaimed.
“Yeah. What’s more, this motor system can be run alongside most engines in the market, or even directly replace it,” Sun Sikong said proudly.
I know that the data I provided Sun Sikong with was purely theoretical, it was already very impressive for him to able to completely develop it. The fact that he would make it work with the engines in the market proved that Sun Sikong was a rare talent even more. I truly find a treasure mine.
“Not bad. How much did this cost, it isn’t really high, right?” This was what I was most concerned with, if this was very costly, then it was no difference from trash.
“Hehe, of course it isn’t high!” Sun Sikong smiled. “It is rather easy to put together the metal this motor uses, and the materials are also very cheap. The cost of the smallest motor is only 15 RMB.”
“15 RMB!” I exclaimed. Fuck, is he selling it like scrap metal!
“Liu-laoshi, if you think that this is too expensive, then you can lower it further, but the lifespan of the motor system cannot be guaranteed, “Sun Sikong thought that I found it too expensive, so he hurriedly added.
“Ugh,,,” I didn’t know what to say. If this was introduced to the market, wouldn’t money just come flowing in!
“If we were to lower the cost, we can change the engine so that water cannot be added, thus it become something that is one-use only. It will probably be done for after running a million kilometers,” said Sun Sikong. “This way, the cost can be controlled at less than 10 RMB.”
I was truly speechless. Sun Sikong was truly talented, I was just wondering how to introduce this new motor system, since I was afraid that after this was introduced, it would be a huge blow to the head for those oil countries!
If it really was as Sun Sikong said, I could just sell this sort of single-use engine. However, how am I supposed to protect the technology? This was very important, thus I asked, “Doctor Sun, this sort of motor system can’t be copied by others, right?”
“Currently, only we have the technology to produce this sort of metal, so others cannot copy it. However, if Liu-laoshi wants it to be more mysterious, we can add a self-destruct device that activates once someone tries to take it apart. However, the cost will increase,” Sun Sikong explained.
“En, this idea isn’t bad. Let’s just do this! Currently, just focus on making a sample of a small single-use product!” I ordered.
“Sure, no problem!” Sun Sikong nodded. “This is easy, it’ll be done in about a month!”
“Alright then, since it’s like this, then I don’t need to worry. I’ll go and introduce this to the market,” I said.
