I am farming in the real world.

Chapter 259 My taxi to the airport is more expensive than this fare!
“How much does electricity cost per kilowatt-hour?”

"Is it possible..."

The passengers whose eyelids were twitching began to make a quiet commotion.

Many people then realized that they were not on a traditional civil airliner that burned aviation fuel.

Instead, it is an electric aircraft with epoch-making significance!

Electric, of course, consumes electricity.

Just like domestically produced pure electric new energy vehicles, it consumes about 0.1 to 0.22 degrees per kilometer, which means it only costs 1 cents per kilometer.

This is also why the penetration rate of new energy vehicles is so high now.

Powerful functions and high configuration are secondary. The most important thing is to save money when running.

As for the slanderous rumors such as "the battery is easy to break, the insurance premium is more expensive, and it costs more to repair it", those are all false conclusions made by foreign car brands who spend money to hire internet trolls to post weird things online.

Manufacturers like BYD have long been investing in large-scale electric taxi experiments in places like Shenzhen, and many of them have run millions of kilometers without changing batteries.

Its reliability and economy have long been verified by the market.

This is also the reason why most people now think of buying an electric car.

And the current flying Rubik's Cube is also driven by pure electricity.

So how much power consumption economy should it achieve?
This concerns the future ticket pricing, and no passenger is not concerned about it!
After riding on this comfortable Flying Cube, who could go back to a traditional airliner?
As soon as Chen Jue finished asking the question, someone raised his hand and shouted, "The electricity cost is basically around 6 cents per kilowatt-hour!"

After these words were spoken, those foreign friends who paid for the places and understood Chinese were all stunned.

"What???"

“Is electricity so cheap in China?”

"The electricity price in our country is 1 euro per kilowatt-hour!"

"No wonder China's science and technology develops so fast, electricity is so cheap!" International friends talked about it, and many of them showed some envy.

As the largest source of energy consumption, the power system affects a country's economic operations.

Electricity prices in Europe and the United States can reach a peak of 1 euros per kilowatt-hour during the most expensive periods.

Moreover, the power generation mainly uses thermal power, which is what environmentalists are calling for to be banned.

With this energy cost, how can we compete with China’s cheap clean energy?

Of course, after hearing the passengers' answers, Chen Jue took the microphone and continued to explain: "The standard passenger capacity of my country's high-speed rail is 1347 people per train, and the power consumption per kilometer of high-speed rail is 21.4 degrees. The rated passenger capacity of the Flying Cube is only 200 people, but it uses a more environmentally friendly and more advanced electronic fuel injection engine."

"So our power consumption is lower, and it only takes about 1 kWh of electricity to fly 15 kilometer!"

As soon as this trump card was used, the whole scene became boiling!
Even the netizens in the live broadcast room were cheering crazily, with the screen filled with all kinds of 666s.

"One kilometer consumes 15 kWh of electricity, and the cost of electricity is less than 10 yuan?"

"Then the ticket price must be set very low!"

"I dare not think about it! I really dare not think about it!"

"In short, the Cube Group is awesome!"

With such ultra-low power consumption, everyone's enthusiasm has been mobilized.

You should know that the fuel consumption of traditional passenger planes is about 0.2 to 0.5 liters per kilometer, and they burn expensive aviation fuel.

If distributed to each passenger, the cost can basically be reduced to a few cents per kilometer.

When ordinary people buy air tickets, they will pay an additional "fuel surcharge" to offset the airline's fuel costs.

Now with the appearance of this flying cube, people no longer need to burn oil when taking a plane, they can just use electricity instead.

Moreover, the electricity cost is less than 15 kWh per kilometer, which saves more than 10 times compared with traditional passenger planes!

What’s even more amazing is that the Flying Cube can achieve vertical take-off and landing.

There is no need for a high-standard airport runway. The aircraft can take off and land by finding a suitable open space, and even the construction cost of the airport terminal can be saved a lot.

So when Chen Jue projected Juneyao Airlines' internal pricing onto the holographic screen behind him.

All the audience watching the live broadcast were completely shocked!
"Fuck! Hangzhou Feiwu only costs 200 yuan???"

"My fucking taxi to the airport is more expensive than this!" "Fuck, with this price, won't it be as cheap to take a plane... no, take the Flying Cube as taking the bus?"

"With the removal of various surcharges, Juneyao Airlines is ready to take off!"

"It is truly an epoch-making aircraft!"

"We are witnessing history! Brothers! (Doghead)"

Those who like to travel, those who often go on business trips, and those who are separated from their families in different places are now beginning to fantasize about the convenience of this Flying Cube after it is launched on the market in the future.

There is no need to rush to the airport 2 hours in advance to catch a flight like before.

You don’t have to worry about flight delays and interrupting your trip.

After developing vertical take-off and landing technology and vector electronic fuel injection engines, the Flying Cube can even cruise at a low altitude of several hundred meters!

How should traditional civil airliners respond to such a dimensionality reduction attack?

The most terrifying thing is that Chen Jue announced that the manufacturing and assembly time of a Flying Rubik's Cube can be shortened to less than 10 hours.

After the Super Rubik's Cube Factory is upgraded and equipped with a new production line, the equipment time can be shortened by half. Basically, 3 to 4 flying Rubik's Cubes can be shipped in one day.

After learning the news, those who were concerned about the production capacity of the Flying Cube all felt a pang in their hearts.

So before this press conference that shocked the whole country was over, the CEOs and heads of several large domestic civil aviation companies hurried out of the venue.

Some people even jogged all over the air show venue without caring about their own image in order to get this important news!
Because they had to do ideological work internally and clear away various obstacles before the news about the Flying Rubik's Cube spread.

In addition, we must find ways to raise funds and quickly contact Magic Cube Group to place orders.

The sooner you place an order and the sooner you make the payment, the sooner you can get the Flying Rubik's Cube.

This is competition in the business world, just like paying for a place in line.

As for those crappy Boeing and Airbus planes, it’s good enough that they can still operate normally at this moment.

But once this epoch-making aircraft becomes popular, those antiques that still retain wings will be swept into the dustbin of history.

“No wonder Juneyao Airlines is selling off its aircraft in bulk.”

"If I don't find a buyer now, in a while the old phone won't be half price, it will be a FUCKING THAT FUCKING THAT PRICE OFF!"

"We can roll off the production line for 3 to 4 units a day. In less than half a year, the entire aviation landscape of China will be changed!"

……

At the same time, on the other side of the ocean, in the CEO's office of Boeing in the United States.

Kelly is worried about Boeing's third and fourth quarter financial reports.

Because in the past two years, Boeing's civil aviation passenger aircraft have frequently experienced quality accidents.

While flying, either the landing gear could not be opened or the cabin door fell off.

Various vicious plane crashes have occurred one after another, causing Boeing’s stock price to fall again and again.

Even Boeing’s internal quality inspection staff could not stand it anymore, and various whistleblowers took the initiative to step forward and inform the market that Boeing’s aircraft had quality problems.

Although money has been spent to make those Boeing whistleblowers disappear physically.

However, the capital market does not have enough confidence in Boeing, so much so that the stock price has fallen to a historic low of $150 per share today.

"It seems like I won't be able to be CEO for too long!"

"If the quality problem is not solved, customers on the other side of the ocean will have less interest in our aircraft." Kelly complained in his mind about the management from McDonnell Douglas.

If these bastards hadn't brought in the junk bloodline of McDonnell Douglas aircraft, Boeing wouldn't have been in the mess it is today.

But before Kelly finished his work this morning, a senior executive from the marketing department rushed into the door of the CEO's office with an iPad.

"Boss!"

"Oh no!"

"Our plane is in trouble!"
