I am farming in the real world

Chapter 75: Iron Man No. 001 Attacks!

The light show idea, gleaned from others, gave Chen Jue a brand new perspective on the future planning of the Magic Cube Factory.

What is the most valuable thing in the market these days?

The answer is nothing more than traffic, popularity, and fame!

Take Tesla Motors as an example. The initial Tesla electric cars, in terms of quality and cost-effectiveness, were far inferior to the fuel vehicles manufactured by established automakers and were simply ignored by the market.

However, after Elon Musk acquired Tesla in 2004, he used his persona to portray himself as an American tech inventor similar to 'Edison,' generating buzz.

This propelled Tesla Motors to its IPO on NASDAQ in the US stock market, successfully raising the initial capital, which led to the current global popularity of Tesla cars.

Besides that, domestic live-streaming platforms, Douyin short videos, and so on all rely on traffic and popularity to make money.

Even the quadrennial Olympic Games have become a way for countries to showcase their national strength and culture to attract global attention.

Popularity equates to the potential for monetization. Even ordinary people can take off with a little bit of it, let alone a newly established startup like Cube Technology.

Therefore, after carefully observing the overall appearance of the 'Magic Cube Factory' at the entrance for a while, Chen Jue entered the office where the interior was still being arranged.

He began to conceive how to reference the design of the MSG Sphere to achieve the light and shadow effects of the 'Magic Cube Factory'.

It is important to know that the main building of the giant sphere venue has a diameter of 157 meters and a height of 111 meters.

The sphere is not directly covered with LED screens, but a huge 'exosphere' was built first.

That is, a spherical framework similar to the Earth's outer atmosphere was created using steel trusses and compression rings. Then, 54,000 square meters of LED screens were covered on this 'exosphere'.

Moreover, the LED screen it uses is not an ordinary screen, but the world's highest resolution 'stage super screen,' which is 20 times clearer than the best TVs on the market.

It allows you to enjoy a shocking immersive VR experience with the naked eye from a very far distance.

International superstars like Taylor Swift use this 'stage super screen' for their touring concerts to make money, and it is indeed unique in terms of visual enjoyment.

However, although this screen is good, it has a very serious drawback.

That is, once the lights are turned off during the day and you look closely, the dense matrix of dots will give people a feeling of 'trypophobia'.

It's far worse than MC's blocky pixel style!

Of course, Chen Jue's future positioning of the 'Magic Cube Factory' is not simply to put on light shows.

He intends to turn this place into a landmark building for the entire Wenshi, even the whole country and the world.

Therefore, even if LED screens are to be used, he cannot completely refer to the 'stage super screen' used by the Americans, but must combine domestic technology and MC materials to create something that is eye-catching.

Otherwise, simply copying the giant sphere's idea, once it is released to the public, there will definitely be countless crooked dogs on the Internet making sarcastic remarks.

"5 square surfaces, a total of 200,000 square meters of screen."

"This investment is not small!"

Chen Jue took out his notebook and did some calculations. In the end, he also drew a few sketches of the Magic Cube Factory after completion, and interspersed some numerical parameters.

He felt that his priority, in addition to finding a new type of screen to replace the traditional LED screen, was to have sufficient funds on hand.

Because the sphere venue created by the Americans cost a total of 2.3 billion US dollars.

Without a large amount of money in hand, even the best ideas can only remain on paper.

…

After figuring out the importance of money, Chen Jue closed his notebook and went down to the dock to inspect the 10,000-ton bulk carrier that was being renovated.

This old ship, which was dragged back from Xiangshan and was more than 20 years old, has been completely renewed after several days of renovation.

The aged keels inside the ship were all smashed by the Iron Golems with [Iron Pickaxes], and then replaced with processed [Iron Bars].

The hull was also replaced with [Iron Sheets] cut from [Iron Blocks].

With the construction experience of the Magic Cube Factory, Chen Jue has become more and more confident in the iron materials produced by MC.

Even a cubic frame with a side length of 200 meters can be stably supported, let alone replacing the original aging and rusty marine steel of the bulk carrier.

After completing these basic renovations, the entire bulk carrier was repainted with a silver-gray paint, the color of which was based on the style of the fifth-generation fighter J-20, revealing an inexplicable sense of technological style in the subtlety.

From a distance, it does not look like a bulk carrier, but rather like a warship!

The ship's name and hull number 'Iron Man 001' were also painted on the bow, and the materials including the seaworthiness certificate for going to sea were all handled together by Manager Zhang of Hongyu Shipbuilding.

Men!

They all like big and good-looking things, and Chen Jue is no exception.

Since he wants to get involved in the maritime logistics trade, the first ship of this Iron Man Logistics must make a name for itself.

However, what Chen Jue is most concerned about is not the appearance of the bulk carrier, but the row of [Lithium Battery Pistons] neatly arranged in the engine room, which have replaced the original 'medium-speed heavy-duty diesel engine'.

It is important to know that this type of cargo ship with a deadweight capacity of 10,000 tons on the market usually selects three different specifications of diesel engines due to the ship's purpose and route.

The first type is 'low-speed heavy-duty diesel engine'. Although the fuel consumption of this engine is high, the vibration is small, and the technology is very mature. It is typically durable and not easy to break, and is very suitable for long-distance, deep-sea shipping.

The second type is 'medium-speed heavy-duty type', which reduces fuel consumption on the basis of the former. Except for a bit of noise, it is suitable for large-scale short-distance and frequent cargo transportation within a limited time.

There is also the last type, 'high-speed medium-duty type', which is generally used for light-load or medium-load cargo transportation, such as transporting liquefied chemicals and fertilizers, which can speed up cargo transportation and improve efficiency and economy.

As for the 'steam turbine' and 'gas turbine' that military fans often hear about, those are industrial pearls in the field of engines, belonging to national treasure-level technologies, and are generally used in the manufacture of large warships, and rarely installed on civilian ships.

As for this 'Iron Man 001' that Chen Jue bought, after trying out his own ideas a little during the previous test drive, he did not plan to use traditional diesel engines anymore.

Instead, the entire ship's power output bearing was connected to the rows of lithium battery pistons in a multi-link manner!

Because in Chen Jue's understanding, the ship propulsion device composed of a diesel engine + propeller is actually not much different in its working principle from the combination of a steam engine + propeller.

The former burns diesel to drive the piston to generate power, and the latter burns boiling water to drive the piston to output reciprocating mechanical work.

Since it is also driven by pistons, the lithium battery pistons synthesized by the MC system are naturally even more heaven-defying!

However, compared to the previous tentative attempts during the test drive.

Chen Jue has put a lot of thought and effort into improving the engine room of 'Iron Man 001' this time.

In addition to connecting these rows of lithium battery pistons to the power output bearing in the connection mode of a 'crank connecting rod mechanism (attached diagram)'.

Chen Jue also bought a bunch of frequency converters, circuit boards, and a normal power generator online during his trip to the Northeast to conduct a super magic modification of this MC power system.

First of all, using 'frequency converter' this kind of power control equipment, with a simple circuit board, the interval time of each lithium battery piston's pushing work was artificially controlled.

The original 0.6 seconds required for a single lithium battery piston to complete a complete push, driving the propeller to rotate a circle, was increased by 100 times through the cooperation of multiple pistons, reaching a theoretical speed of 0.006 seconds per revolution.

What is the concept of this speed?

Simply put, it is that after Takumi's AE86, which originally only had a 1.6L displacement civilian version four-cylinder engine in "Initial D", blew up, Bunta, who squinted, replaced it with a track-use 10,000-rpm high-speed 2JZ Supra engine!
