Deep Blue CEO responded to SL03’s fire for 25 seconds while driving, the open flame self-extinguished, and the safety design took effect

Deep Blue CEO responds to SL03 fire while driving

On August 21, a video of a traffic accident involving a dark blue SL03 model attracted widespread public attention. The video content showed that during the driving process, the vehicle accidentally touched a hollow floor tile, causing the floor tile to crack and tilt, which in turn penetrated the battery pack at the bottom of the vehicle and caused a fire. The occupants of the vehicle responded quickly and immediately opened the door to escape the scene.

In response to the incident, Deep Blue CEO Deng Chenghao released an official statement through an online platform in the early morning. He detailed the specific cause of the accident: the tire of the vehicle accidentally ran over a hollow and damaged stone brick, which tilted up and hit the chassis of the vehicle hard, causing the vehicle to leave the ground and hit the ground hard. During this period, the sharp part of the stone brick pierced the baseplate of the battery pack, directly damaging the two batteries, which caused the battery to catch fire. Due to the serious damage to the battery baseplate, the sealing was lost, and finally caused a visible flame under the chassis.

Deng Chenghao also stressed that despite this unfortunate incident, the super-range-extended golden bell battery system equipped with the Deep Blue SL03 demonstrated the safety performance in its design. After the open flame caused by the damaged battery appeared, the flame automatically extinguished in just 25 seconds, and only two batteries were affected, effectively ensuring the safety of the lives and property of the drivers and passengers. When the accident occurred, the built-in system of the vehicle and the big data security platform in the company’s background immediately triggered the alarm, and the Deep Blue team immediately contacted the owner to confirm the safety of the entire accident handling process.

In addition, Deng Chenghao also mentioned that some of the videos circulating only took clips of the fire, ignoring the key process of the vehicle being hit and emptied and the subsequent open flame self-extinguishing. Therefore, he hoped that through this statement, the true situation of the accident can be fully restored to the public.

The Deep Blue CEO responded that the SL03 caught fire while driving.

Cai Xukun was suspected of causing a woman’s pregnancy and abortion due to a one-night stand, and the media suggested calling the police for investigation

Recently, a revelation about Cai Xukun has attracted widespread attention. According to the revelation, Cai Xukun is suspected of having a one-night stand with a woman, which led to the woman’s pregnancy and abortion. Once the news came to light, it immediately attracted heated discussion and attention from netizens.

According to relevant laws and regulations, one-night stands are not illegal in China. However, if the revelations are true, the woman was not of legal age when Cai Xukun had sex with the woman, or Cai Xukun took illegal means to force the woman to have sex with him, then these acts will be suspected of breaking the law.

In response to this incident, netizens have expressed their views and suggestions. Some people believe that Cai Xukun should immediately report the case to the police and assist in the investigation to restore the truth. In addition, some netizens called on the woman to stand up bravely and protect her rights and interests, and called on all sectors of society to pay attention and appeal to similar incidents.

As a popular idol, Cai Xukun is much loved and concerned by young people. His behavior not only affects his personal image, but also affects his social responsibility as a public figure. Therefore, whether this incident is true or not, Cai Xukun has the responsibility to respond actively and cooperate with the investigation of relevant agencies.

At the same time, the occurrence of similar incidents should also arouse extensive reflection and attention. The healthy growth of young people requires the care and guidance of society, and celebrity idols should lead by example and set a correct example for young people. In the entertainment industry, it is urgent to strengthen corresponding supervision and management for issues such as protecting the rights and interests of minors and strengthening youth education and guidance.

Finally, we also call on netizens to maintain a rational and objective attitude when paying attention to such incidents. Any issues involving personal privacy and legitimate rights and interests need to be resolved through legal channels, rather than blind speculation and rumors. I hope the relevant departments can launch an investigation into this matter, restore the truth and give the public a clear answer.
