There was no sense of a modern city here. Fortunately, Ye Qing was about to leave.
The weapons were distributed to the monsters left behind in the mini factory, and the Mercedes-Benz G65 was shipped back to China.
When he sat on the Peregrine Falcon again, Ye Qing finally realized what modern life was.
There was a warm bed, a comfortable and clean bathroom, food that could be eaten at will, television, and Internet. This was modern life. Sitting in his exclusive seat, Ye Qing could finally connect his phone to the Peregrine Falcon and connect to the high-speed wireless network through the satellite network.
Although there was also a satellite network in the car, it was a special network directly connected to the car's operating system. The satellite phone was a very ordinary old phone, and WeChat could not be installed.
After two days of not going online, Ye Qing could finally live a life of browsing his phone.
The moment the phone was connected to the Internet, Ye Qing found that it had suddenly entered berserk mode. All kinds of application notifications, messages, mailboxes, WeChat, Weibo, and so on were beeping non-stop.
Deleting the useless messages first, Ye Qing turned on the seat massage mode, and first comfortably watched the news related to the Thunderbolt car.
Dian Jing reported in the morning that the Thunderbolt car's system program had been upgraded. This upgrade represents another innovative breakthrough in the field of science and technology of the monster industry. But to be honest, Ye Qing was not sure whether this breakthrough would eventually become a joke or cause world-wide attention.
Paying outside the car was fine, and it was a relatively uncontroversial technology.
Even if Google were to do remote driving, Ye Qing's first reaction would be that Google was crazy. Now that Monster Industries was doing it, others would naturally have similar doubts, and the controversy would be huge.
Remote driving and the car's auxiliary driving or automatic driving were two completely different concepts.
Auxiliary driving and automatic driving could only run on high ground. In urban areas, it would only cause serious traffic congestion because it lacked complex calculations and intelligent judgment of the surrounding environment of the car.
Remote driving was different.
In Ye Qing's idea, it could completely take over the operation of the car, allowing the driver or passengers to safely reach the destination in any state.
In the early stages, Monster Industries would hire a driver to remotely take over the user's car, which was equivalent to a remote driver. The technical team led by Dian Jing would process the data collected during the driving. Once the database was perfected, the true era of long-distance driving would begin.
The driver was the server.
It sounded ridiculous and unreliable. However, this plan had been carefully studied by the technical team. At least technically, it was feasible.
However, Ye Qing searched for some news and found that there seemed to be a huge controversy over this function on the Internet. Most of them were on the opposite side of Monster Industries.

When he refreshed the page, Ye Qing noticed that there was a new article in the news feed on Baidu.
The article was taken from the famous domestic technology website, which was quite an authoritative technology website. Even the professional standards of the editors and the audience were higher than those of other websites.
In this news, the famous editor, Xiao Zhou, said: Cars are our most important means of transportation. The number of cars is also an important indicator to measure a country's livelihood and economic level. Since the beginning of the decade, our domestic car industry in Hua Xia has been developing faster and faster. Now, almost all the low-end models are monopolized by domestic manufacturers. Domestic manufacturers like curve cars. They focus on the cost-performance ratio so that users can buy the most versatile car with the least amount of money.
Anyone who has driven a car before knows that there is a huge difference between a car with only basic functions and a car with all kinds of auxiliary driving functions. Take myself as an example. I drive a Volvo 9o Smart Edition. This car has a lot of functions. It's so many that when I drive, I feel that it's a pleasure.
If I drive a manual transmission now, I'm sure I can't even start well, let alone run on the road.
However, just last week, my friend bought a Thunderbolt car, and I had the pleasure of driving it. I have to say that the Thunderbolt car refreshed my understanding of cars. Driving a Thunderbolt can no longer be described as a pleasure.
It's addictive. According to my friend, he now wants to drive downstairs to buy a pack of cigarettes.
I'm glad that Hua Xia has a company like Monster Industries, which injects new vitality into our domestic car industry. Just yesterday, Monster Industries upgraded the Thunderbolt car's program system. In addition to introducing a very interesting external payment function, they also solemnly introduced an epoch-making remote driving function to users.
To be honest, I was shocked by the introduction of this function.
First of all, it requires you to register as a member. Then it's charged according to mileage. 0.5 yuan per kilometer in the city, it's free. I admit that this price is many times cheaper than a taxi. But after a heated discussion with my colleagues for a long time, we still can't confirm what this function is used for.
Drivers drive it to drink, then sit in the passenger seat and activate the remote driving function?
I feel that the traffic police comrades will feel like their IQ was insulted. Even whether it can pass the approval of the traffic department is a serious problem.
Other than the unrealistic drunk driving, who else would use it?
In the end, a female colleague who doesn't know how to drive revealed the core purpose of this function.
It's for people who don't know how to drive.
Think about it, if this function can really be implemented. Then our parents who don't know how to drive, our wives and children who don't know how to drive, when they want to go somewhere, they won't have to drag you along as a driver. Sitting in the car and letting the remote driving take them wherever they want to go.
I admit that this function is really epoch-making. But in terms of technology, we agree that it can't be implemented at the moment.
According to Monster Industries, they will hire professional drivers in the early stages and let a computer with learning ability collect driving data. When the conditions are met, the driver will become a computer.
But we can't move the computer into the car. We can only rely on the 4G wireless signal to connect the car and the remote driving center.
How can we solve the network delay?
The information of the car's road conditions must be transmitted through video collection. The faster the car, the higher the risk because of the delay. At the same time, we have to pray that the 4G network doesn't drop. But even so, when the car passes through a tunnel or an overpass, the signal is likely to be temporarily interrupted. I've checked the information. Currently, all the cities have basically achieved signal coverage of underground parking lots. But many small tunnels don't have signal relay equipment installed because of cost.
Also, if there's a car accident during the remote driving, who will be responsible for this?
At the end of the article, Editor Xiao Zhou wrote: Here, I sincerely propose a few suggestions to Monster Industries. The Thunderbolt car is already dazzling enough. The remote driving function is a technological milestone in the field of cars. I'm looking forward to this function and am extremely excited.
