Mixed In the United States As a Local Tyrant

  Chapter 333 Dual Motors

   Now An Feng has to worry about spending money again.

It is almost a routine, and this kind of "rich troubles" is repeated at the beginning of each year, and the game gets bigger and bigger. The 1.25 billion taxes given by John happened under the best circumstances of reasonable tax avoidance, according to the tax law. According to calculations, Anfeng will pay a huge personal tax of 3 billion US dollars to the tax bureau.

  It can be deducted, but it does not mean that Anfeng’s taxable income can be used freely. The personal deductible amount is limited, and the business expenditure amount is also limited. He has to strictly follow the procedures to consume in order to reach the 1.25 billion individual tax. The actual tax paid is often much higher than the ideal value.

This is why An Feng considers spending money—he invests in a company, buys a super cruise ship, and burns more than a billion yuan, which is better than paying taxes. Of course, it is a bit of a loss of 800 yuan, but it can be controlled or handed over to the tax bureau. There is no doubt that the former is more acceptable.

   To put it more practically, he has no goal to invest in the company now.

For example, GP companies, currently they have sufficient funds, can fully support any technology research and development and commercial operations, and their scientific research activities are based on correct theories, the cost of research and development is much less than other companies, and commercial operations are monopolistic , don't bother.

  The same goes for the research center. This time, Anfeng only distributes the phone fee for patent authorization, and the commercial operation of the research center enterprise, such as rapid cancer cure and anticancer drug dividends, is calculated to be hundreds of millions, which is enough for their operation... and other enterprises are the same.

   They are well developed, well funded, and obviously do not need reinvestment.

   "So it's very nerve-wracking now." An Feng confided to Joanna.

  After listening to An Feng's distress, she came up with an idea: "You can think about the longer term, such as nuclear energy and global warming that you mentioned earlier."

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

An Feng decided to make a longer-term plan. Considering the research and development of robots, he invested in two more 3D printers, one of which cost tens of millions of dollars, and then invested another billion dollars in the superconductor project. In addition to superconductors, their derivatives such as superconducting power generation machine, ferrofluid and nuclear fusion reaction research and development.

Then there will be the issue of quantum technology. He decided to set up an independent research institution and prepare a fund of 500 million US dollars to help them make breakthroughs faster. , to facilitate the use of funds.

In the end, he invested 100 million U.S. dollars in the "Green Earth Project", and then set up a fund of 500 million U.S. dollars to support the development of the plan. Then he linked Anshi Industrial's seawater desalination project with Green Earth to form a closer cooperation team. Hire another batch of environmental analysts.

   After a few long-term spending, the two billion dollars will have a destination. It covers future global quantum communication, quantum computing and artificial intelligence, robotics and stereolithography, future green earth and clean energy. There is no doubt that they are options that have potential in the future and also meet Anfeng's goals.

After spending so much money, he has already been able to deduct 700 million personal taxes, most of which belong to business expenses, and he can spend the rest more easily, such as buying some collectibles, preparing some jewelry or luxury accessories for Joanna, and then going to Decorate your own overseas island, continue to burn money for sports, etc.

  Considering that his consumer demand in the United States has been almost saturated, which means that private demand has begun to decline, so he plans to transfer more profit shares to offshore companies, which can avoid many taxes and fees. Of course, the consumption of corporate accounts is not convenient enough, but it is even more inconvenient to pay taxes.

  …

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

  The last time Maserati pure electric vehicle was tested, he just observed it and had no actual experience. However, for a person who loves cars, it is a very passionate thing to be able to drive a brand-new model on the track. Bruno, president of North America, also saw this.

  Of course, anyone who sees An Feng's museum can understand the heart of the owner of the venue.

  This time An Feng was invited to participate in the test of two models, namely the "President" of the luxury car 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 Motor Show in March this year.

  After An Feng came to the racetrack by helicopter, the vehicle was ready.

Both Bruno and the director of the circuit, Robert, were there. After they shook hands, Bruno said: "I heard Mr. Robert say, Mr. An, you are an amateur driver, and your skills are no less than professional. Please forgive me for being wrong last time. I didn't expect Mr. interests are so broad."

  An Feng smiled: "I take it as an attitude, I like high-speed sports."

   "They'll surprise you!" Bruno said, stepping away. Behind him were two cars, the president in champagne gold and the GT in carbon black.

  An Feng walked up to the president: "What's changed?"

Bruno said: "Compared with the large-volume single motor last time, its mass is too large. This time we launched dual motors with a combined output of 550 horsepower. The focus is on comfort. The acceleration from 100 kilometers is 4.2 seconds, and the top speed is 305 kilometers. Conventional In this mode, single-motor rear drive can be used, which is more power-saving, and the mileage can reach 650 kilometers. In dual-motor mode, using the power optimization system, it can reach 450 kilometers.”

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

He couldn't wait to get on the car for a test. Compared with the past, the interior has changed greatly. The central control instrument panel has been replaced with a liquid crystal display, and there is a large-size display device next to it. Information is displayed on the windshield, head up and drive.

  Running a few laps of the F1 track, due to the positioning of a luxury car, it is naturally impossible to be as turbulent as a sports car. An Feng also judges according to the standard of a luxury car. The result is very satisfying, the acceleration is fast, the start is strong and powerful, and the sound is very small, and the car is very quiet.

  Power mode switching is very simple. In single motor mode, the maximum speed is 150, which is suitable for almost all roads. If you want to get more surging power, turn on the dual motor mode, it can break a hundred in four seconds, the power is continuous, and it can reach a speed of more than 305 kilometers per hour.

An Feng suggested to increase the level of luxury, and this time Maserati has also added it, and the president finally has the appearance of a president. Multimedia equipment is added in the rear row, and the central armrest has a small refrigerator that can hold two bottles of champagne. Chair massage and so on.

   It looks similar to the gasoline version on the outside, but the inside has changed. Whether it is riding or driving, it feels very atmospheric. After getting off the car, take a look around, it is as fashionable as ever, and the exhaust pipe that disappears at the rear of the car shows its special status and enjoys high-end.

   Next is the most anticipated sports car.

   Maserati GT, as a sports car that pursues comfort, gives the impression of gentleness, without the irritable and crazy of its brother Ferrari, it is quite satisfactory. This time Brono said: "It is also a dual motor, with a high-performance version of the battery, the motor can output 630 horsepower, the acceleration from 100 kilometers is maintained at 3.2 seconds, the top speed can reach 335 kilometers per hour, and the range of a single motor is 600 kilometers."

  An Feng took a closer look. The shape has changed, and the aerodynamic body has been compromised to be smoother. In the past, the GT's top speed did not exceed 300, and it took four to five seconds to break through a hundred. This time the opponent was replaced by Ferrari's best-selling model, the 458, or even the more advanced F12. The performance can only be described as manic.

  According to what Bruno said, the motor is very small, 20 kg per unit. What kind of concept is this? For a V8 engine, the weight is generally 180 to 200 kilograms. Lamborghini's V12 engine weighs more than 230 kilograms, and the current power core is only 40 kilograms.

   Wear a helmet and get on the car. It is a two-seater, not the previous two-door four-seater. In order to pursue light weight, the seat is a racing seat, which is fixed and relatively hard. The central control is also simplified, there is only a large LCD screen, and the head-up display can be used to allow the driver to concentrate more on driving.

  An Feng pressed the start button to start the motor.

  The pure electric sound is very slight. Compared with the past, it has no clutch, and there is no such thing as a shift paddle behind the steering wheel. There are several main buttons at hand, such as reverse, normal gear, and climbing gear. In addition, there are three modes: sports, track and ESC-OFF.

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

An Feng ran in sports mode first, and he couldn't hear the roar of the engine when he stepped on the switch. The feeling of pushing his back came directly, his body was pressed tightly on the seat, and he watched the speed displayed by the numbers continue to climb. Before a corner, the speed of the sports car has reached 280 kilometers per hour.

The strongest supercar that Anfeng has ever driven can reach 310 before high-speed corners. In sports mode, the performance of GT is also considered outstanding. Continue to corner, brake to slow down, and step on the switch to accelerate...several hairpin turns and high-speed turns in a row Down, the most uncomfortable thing for An Feng is that he doesn't need to change gears.

In the past, the gear position was always precisely controlled to maintain the speed, but now you just step on the switch and watch the speed of the motor break through 10,000 or 20,000. The high speed is already comparable to that of an F1 car, and the motor uses more than 85% of the energy. The rate is far higher than the level of gasoline, and the speed is increased even more.

  After running five consecutive laps, An Feng's fastest lap time was 1 minute and 43 seconds, the electric car is against the sky! Although it takes 3.2 seconds to accelerate from 100 kilometers to 100 kilometers, the motor will not be weak 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 said with emotion: "Dual motors are simply a new era of electric vehicles!"

"Of course." Bruno also thinks so, "As long as the electric energy is guaranteed, the development of electric motors will be more vigorous. At present, we have only tapped the potential of a small part of electric motors, but the gasoline engine has almost reached its limit. The future will definitely be electric. of."

  They were also chatting about the cost.

  The performance is so outstanding and the cost is not low. The high-performance version of the battery is customized by GP Energy, even the battery system, which can make the most reasonable use of resources. In addition, although the motor is assembled by them, the core components are all 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 opponent is no longer the original ordinary sports car, but the Ferrari 458, Lamborghini Huracan, and Porsche 911. The price can also be raised to 20 to the $250,000 level.

   Calculated in this way, the profit is actually quite good.

   But how to publicize it and change people's previous inherent impression? Let more people know that after separating from Fiat, Maserati has risen?

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

   Bruno asked: "Specifically?"

"In the United States, find three to five race venues, provide racing cars, and attract drivers to participate with high rewards. Ten to fifteen drivers are needed, just like your previous Trofeo-MC World Championships. Now hold a race How about promoting the pure electric MC Challenge?"

   Bruno nodded: "It's a good idea."

   "If necessary, I can sponsor this series." An Feng is the least short of money now, "including its title, sponsorship and event rewards, etc."
