Sure enough, Wu Hao and the others finally won the bid with this plan. Although other bidders criticized it, after seeing their demonstration video, they all lost their voices.
Compared with their plan, as well as the technology and performance effects of the demonstration, their plan is simply unbeatable.
Everyone is engaged in research on drone technology, and the domestic circle is neither too small nor too big. So naturally I know Wu Hao and his previous demonstration in Hangzhou, and I am very excited about Dajiang being able to cooperate with Wu Hao and the others.
Regret.
But it makes sense to think about it, why does Wu Hao ignore good industry leaders and insist on cooperating with them?
Of course, Wu Hao's plan is not without its shortcomings. The biggest shortcoming, and the one most discussed by the leaders, is the price.
This time Dajiang gave a quotation of 120 million [Note 1], which really gave the leaders a toothache. Sure enough, good things are not cheap. Although this plan is effective, it is really too expensive.
But in the end, the big boss agreed. Compared to the expensive price of 120 million, if we can further expand the influence of Yangcheng through this performance and show the new image of Yangcheng to the world, it will definitely be a sure profit.
Losing business.
More importantly, this swarm performance of 10,000 drones will create an unprecedented new record, which will also demonstrate the strength of Yangcheng as a science and technology capital. It will also show the world our country’s strong scientific and technological strength, which is currently
This period is particularly rare.
After the bidding was successful, Wu Hao and the others immediately started to get busy, because the time left for them was really very limited. Ten thousand drones, a super large cluster formation, and a super dense array, in a complex environment, achieved 25 minutes.
A wonderful performance, this will undoubtedly be a huge project.
The first was drones. The previous four thousand performance drones basically emptied Dajiang’s entire inventory. So after receiving the order, Sun Shaoyang immediately began to coordinate the production of the remaining six thousand drones. p>
The production and manufacturing of these drones alone takes more than half a month of overtime work. In addition, to realize the network interconnection of 10,000 drones and perform attitude control, it is necessary to carry out the hardware inside the drones.
Re-upgrade and transform.
The new more than 6,000 drones can be built in the factory, but the original more than 4,000 drones need to be modified and upgraded by themselves, which also takes a lot of time.
After that, it is time to enter the long real machine testing phase, which is not only network testing, but also system operation testing, stress testing, anti-interference testing, etc.
It does not mean that you can perform directly with a drone-mounted system. This requires sufficient preparation in the early stage.
You must know that when you perform, you are facing millions of residents in the entire city, numerous media, and countless audiences watching through the media.
Once something unexpected happens to this performance, it will be a big deal. With the current speed and coverage of the Internet, there is no chance of remediation. This requires them to ensure that this performance is 100% foolproof, and the pressure can be imagined.
Know.
Therefore, experts and leaders were actually hesitant about whether to confirm their bold plan. In the end, the big boss took the risk and agreed. He saw the confidence in the eyes of young people like Wu Hao and wanted to give these young people
Give people a chance to show themselves.
Whether it is Wu Hao or Sun Shaoyang, they naturally know how rare this opportunity is, so they go all out to strive to complete this performance perfectly.
To this end, throughout July and August, Wu Hao led the team to stay in Yangcheng. Together with the team led by Sun Shaoyang, they conducted countless tests and optimization modifications on the entire drone fleet and the entire 'Tianyi' system to make it
Reach the most ideal state.
With the support of the team led by Sun Shaoyang in terms of drone hardware, sufficient funds and excellent conditions, Wu Hao also made very bold and innovative modifications to the system program.
It can be said that the new ‘Tianyi’ system has significantly higher cluster control capabilities at fixed sites than the original ‘Tianyi’ system.
During this period, he only left once, which was a technical seminar held by Alibaba on the new company's upcoming new project "Smart Logistics and Warehousing".
The project itself is led by Zou Xiaodong, but this is the first technical seminar, and Zou Xiaodong does not have enough weight, so he has to come forward to participate.
On the other hand, although Zou Xiaodong is familiar with this technology and system procedures, he is only exposed to the application of this system, and he does not understand the real core technology.
Therefore, many times, when there are problems involving core technologies, Zou Xiaodong has to ask Wu Hao for help remotely in real time.
Alibaba attaches great importance to this project and directly provided them with a newly built automated logistics warehouse in their Hangzhou logistics base for research, transformation and upgrading.
Having such an automated logistics warehouse in the county will naturally be of great help to them in developing new intelligent logistics systems. Many of their ideas and technologies can be tested and verified in this automated logistics warehouse.
However, Ali also has requirements that they must complete relevant testing work before this year’s Double Eleven Shopping Festival. If it is not completed, the automated warehouse will be restored to its original appearance before then, which will not affect its performance after the shopping festival.
Logistics transfer work.
In other words, the time left for their joint R&D team this year is very limited. If there is no success at this node, they will have to wait a long time.
It was not until the logistics and transportation pressure subsided in the second year that the joint R&D team was able to get the automated warehouse again for testing.
In addition, there are also projects at the Beijing Air Force Equipment Research Institute. Although he has been very busy during this period, his contact with Mr. Zhao and his research team has never been broken.
He has not made any general progress until mid-to-late September, and it is expected that the outdoor real-life flight test of the drone cluster will be carried out.
He will also be involved in the series of testing work before this, until the actual machine test is completed.
In other words, between now and the Lunar New Year, he has no time to rest and is basically spinning.
[Note 1: This price is not a random fabrication, but is based on actual cases. According to the previous transaction announcement of the XA City Wall Thousand UAV Light and Shadow Performance Project, the cost of 1,374 UAV performances was as high as 10.5 million.
The larger the scale of the drone, the more difficult the technology required, so the cost will be higher. Therefore, the price of 10,000 drones at 120 million is not expensive.]
