Chapter 185 Open Source Car Computer

"The Jingwei Intelligent Satellite Network can not only provide accurate navigation and positioning services on the ground, but also play a role in space. The Abershira Space Station successfully completed the docking and assembly of the last module at 14:20 yesterday afternoon, relying on Jingwei Navigation.

At the same time, users who have installed Jingwei Navigation car machines can use the emergency rescue function in an emergency, and use satellite services to assist in positioning and communication..."

It is 2016 now, and it is still relatively "rustic". Jingwei Navigation has modified map detection vehicles running around the country, and is also advertising its own software.

On June 26, the last module of the Hilla Space Station was launched, and Jingwei Navigation immediately took the opportunity to take advantage of the hot spots and tried its best to promote itself.

After all, if it is used in aerospace, why not in automobiles? What is aerospace quality (leaning back).

There are also specially hired advertising vehicles in crowded places, which are constantly broadcasting, and they are also vigorously promoting on the Internet.

Southern Automobile has announced that this year's new car models will only support Jingwei & Beidou navigation, and provide each user with 1 free emergency satellite communication service.

Xinan Automobile does not need to do this. The default XW series intelligent driving system is more intelligent and easy to use than Jingwei Navigation, and adding an online conversation assistant is not complicated.

As for other manufacturers, they can also choose the "Jingwei" car machine.

"11,500 yuan? So expensive? The profit is all earned by the car machine. How can such a small thing be worth 11,500?"

Looking at the angry head of GAC in front of him, Chen Jun did not remain as steady as a mountain, and said slowly:

"Of course, it may be a little expensive just in terms of hardware, but the chips and artificial intelligence that support Beidou and Jingwei smart networks are worth a lot of money. Satellite services are also very expensive, and the more you buy, the lower the price will be."

After 7 days of wandering in the sky, Chen Jun's temperament has changed a lot, and he is more confident and calm than before.

After the launch of the XW series intelligent driving system, it has shown a crushing trend against domestic and foreign manufacturers, forcing everyone to engage in intelligent driving.

However, the hardware conditions are here, and no matter how much we do, it can't be much higher. Making a cruise control is the limit, and it is naturally unthinkable to approach autonomous driving like Xin'an.

Fortunately, Xin'an did not eat alone. After Jingwei Xintong launched Jingwei Navigation, the two parties jointly developed an open source semi-finished intelligent car machine, which can be adapted to fuel vehicles and electric vehicles, and manufacturers can purchase in batches.

This semi-finished product is naturally an extremely castrated version. After the XW161 was cut, it was combined with some chat AI functions. The chip uses a single X32216, that is, the 322 series is castrated from the X321 series to reduce costs. At the same time, the underlying circuit module for binary support is doped, reducing most of the switching components.

Then it is open to manufacturers across the country, adapted according to different levels, and then purchase the car machine system from Xin'an.

Although the cost of the semi-finished product after the extreme castration has been reduced to a very low level, and the opening price is not expensive in Xinyuan's view, it is still a bit painful for manufacturers.

The two models launched by Xinyuan that are closer to the middle and lower classes have once again sold well. Even the XW161 system has brought people an unimaginable assisted driving experience, so that the market has already called cars without intelligent driving traditional cars, and it feels like they are about to be eliminated.

Of course, there are also giants who have come to do this. Baidu, Tencent, 360 and other powerful Internet giants have started their own intelligent driving plans, but unfortunately the results are slow, at least not as reassuring as the XW series.

Xinan's semi-open source car machine has become the best solution for many manufacturers, but even if they want to buy it, they cannot buy it without restrictions.

There are not too many 28nm production capacity in China, which is still the highest process in China at this time. There are currently three chip foundries supplying it, but not many can be allocated to the X322 series. In addition, high-end car machines need more chips, and about 400,000 sets can be supplied a year.

This number is not much, at least not much in the face of demand, so although Chen Jun opened his mouth, the person in charge of GAC still had to bite his teeth and accept it.

"10,000 yuan, same as before, customized voice, customized artificial intelligence, special features are fuel saving and noise reduction, two grades, 20,000 sets first!"

Generally speaking, the driving computer of gasoline vehicles, ECU, already has a learning function, which can automatically adjust the engine working state within a certain range to achieve the purpose of extending life and saving fuel, but Xin'an's smart car machine is obviously stronger and can completely replace the traditional ECU.

The traditional ECU adapts according to the driving habits of the owner and requires a "running-in period", while the smart car machine is different. It can be determined in real time according to the road conditions and the gear status of the vehicle, which is much more flexible.

Chen Jun sighed when he heard the offer of 10,000 yuan: "This price was not acceptable, but considering that GAC was our first batch of customers, Xin'an made an exception and supplied it at a preferential price. This can't be the case in the future, Mr. Yao, I still want to go up again with my performance."

As he said this, he seemed to turn his head inadvertently, allowing Mr. Yao of GAC to naturally spread his sight to the huge photo on the wall behind the desk.

Seven people wearing extravehicular space suits stood together outside the Yungong core module. Three tourists and four professional astronauts got together to carry out an extravehicular activity and took a photo that set a new record for the number of human astronauts working in space.

When taking the photo, the time was deliberately chosen so that the seven people could avoid direct sunlight. They pulled back their masks to leave clear faces under the camera. In the third from the left, you can see Chen Jun's smiling face.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Chen. I'll invite you that night..."

"No, no, no, now the company has regulations that no manager is allowed to accept banquets in private, otherwise it will be a waste of money."

Seeing Chen Jun's determined look, Mr. Yao couldn't hold on and left after signing the contract of intention.

He just sighed in his heart. Everyone said that the work style of Xinyuan Company was very good. He thought he was just bragging, but he didn't expect that he could really be so clean and honest, and he could distinguish between public and private matters.

Although Xinan is a joint venture between Xinyuan and Southern Motor, it still fully accepts Xinyuan's management and R&D system. It can make personnel transfers internally regardless of each other. On the contrary, Southern Motor cannot.

Lin Ju has absolute control over Xinan Automobile, which is not determined by shares alone, but by the will of the people.

In fact, Lin Ju has already issued announcements at Xinyuan Aerospace Power, Xin'an, Jingwei Telecom and other companies that the space tourism indicator will become a unique benefit of Xinyuan Aerospace, and it will not be exclusive to senior executives. In the case of similar contributions, Priority will be given to those that have not been shipped before.

Moreover, the unique advantages of the System Research Institute have been used to build an internal system that completely separates R&D and sales, making internal management very efficient and clean, but not depressing.
