A new day was not a holiday, nor was it a special day.
But today, the Internet was more lively than the New Year.
From forums to major portals, news websites, and video websites.
Remote driving!
The frequency of these four words was even higher than the sum of the second to fifth trending searches. Since the morning, many office workers had secretly used their computers or mobile phones to search for the live review video of the remote driving function.
Whether they had a driver's license or not, they all paid a lot of attention to this function.
In addition to the huge public opinion hotspot stirred up by the United States, the people were also eager to know if this function could be realized.
Those who did not have a driver's license expected to sit comfortably in the car in the future and let the car take them to have fun.
Those who had a driver's license expected to drink when they wanted to in the future. After drinking, they would happily let the car drive themselves home.
"Do you think remote driving can pass the review?"
"I don't think so. This is the 21st century, not the 22nd century. I personally think that Monster Industries made this gimmick mainly to advertise the Thunderbolt car and increase exposure. "
"A gimmick should only be publicity and not practice. The upstairs must not have watched the Monster Industries press conference. Even the United States was choked to the point that they couldn't say a word."
"I watched the press conference. I'm so nervous today. If the Monster Industries project fails, it will be the face of our Hua Xia people!"
"Does anyone know when the live broadcast will start? And will the United States representative come?"
"The upstairs, it seems to be 2: 30 in the afternoon. I don't know if the United States representative will come, but a lot of American media will come. "
…..
At nine o 'clock in the morning, a silver-gray Mercedes-Benz Antos truck and a thunder and lightning drove out of the underground garage of the Monster Industries building.
The Mercedes-Benz truck had obviously been modified. There was a large signal receiver on the silver-gray metal container-like roof, and a row of dark black glass windows on both sides of the body.
In the car, Dian Jing and two Electronic Messengers sat beside a row of electronic equipment. The two Electronic Messengers sat upright, while Dian Jing wore a gray cloak and slumped in a chair like a captured elf.
There were monsters in the car, and so were the drivers.
In front of the thunder and lightning, the boss of the monsters, Ye Qing, sat.
This time, the long-distance driving function of the Thunderbolt car could only succeed, and failure was not an option. For this reason, even Ye Qing personally brought Dian Jing along, but Dian Jing obviously did not take it seriously.
The remote driving function was the technological crystallization that it, the Electronic Messenger, and a group of top electronic engineers had worked hard to create. Using the current technological level of mankind to judge the function of long-distance driving was naturally a whimsical daydream. However, in Dian Jing's eyes, the remote driving function was just the inevitable result of hard work.
Its results would definitely be perfect. Since that was the case, why waste the time to personally come to the scene?
When the two cars full of monsters arrived at the Shanghai Automobile Quality Supervision and Inspection Center at one in the afternoon, there was already a sea of people at the scene.
Representatives from various countries' media, transportation departments, Fudan National Key Laboratory, and Monster Industries. In addition to these people, there were at least a few thousand spectators who had driven over to watch.
However, the American representative arrived even later than Ye Qing.
The Automobile Quality Supervision and Inspection Center was located in the Automobile Industrial Park, where everything related to automobiles could be found. If there were people who made a living in this area and paid attention to the foreigners in suits in the crowd of onlookers, their jaws would definitely drop.
Bauer, the sales director of Volkswagen's Shanghai branch, Bernard Dean, the administrative director of the Comprehensive Management Department, and Nanette, the deputy director of marketing.
Elris, the deputy director of technology of Toyota, and Angelina, the assistant general manager of Buick's Hua Xia district.
The executives of these automobile companies got together and looked at the staff of Monster Heavy Industry who were surrounded by the crowd and became the focus of attention with complicated eyes. Their hearts were full of mixed feelings.
Once upon a time, they were as glorious as these people. Even five years ago, or even earlier.
At that time, the Hua Xia Automobile Market was their back garden, and they were the gardeners.
The boundless fresh flowers were all in their pockets. Hua Xia's local automobile industry was beaten to the point that it could not even lift its head. Even the original Hua Xia automobile industry, from engines to gearboxes to driving computers, had to be imported from them.
But now …
This group of executives could not help but feel a little speechless. When the Thunderbolt car came out, it represented that Hua Xia's local automobile manufacturing industry had surpassed their established European and American companies in the field of cutting-edge new energy vehicles. Regardless of whether Monster Industries was fighting alone or not, surpassing was surpassing, and they could not see any hope of catching up.
Now, Monster Industries had launched a remote driving function with astonishing momentum. If this function went online, it would bring about earth-shaking changes.
Whether it was a change in history or a big joke to see Monster Industries, it all depended on the results of today's test!
At 1: 30 in the afternoon, Monster Industries had finished debugging the two experimental Thunderbolt car. At the same time, the media from home and abroad had also set up their interview equipment and ran to interview the relevant staff before the test began.
This test was by no means as simple as letting the two Thunderbolt car run a few laps in the industrial park.
[National Key Laboratory for Regional Optical Fiber Communication Networks and New Optical Communication Systems] The scientific research and technology staff had been debugging multiple sets of electronic equipment in the testing center since yesterday. They would begin to monitor the three important systems of the car, wireless network, and remote control host from the moment the Thunderbolt car was connected to the remote control system.
In addition, the technical staff of the transportation department would also follow the car for data collection.
At two o 'clock in the afternoon, the two Thunderbolt car were carefully driven into the testing center by the staff. The reporters also brought along their cameras and followed them eagerly.
"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. I am Shen Hong, a reporter from Tencent News Channel. At this moment, I am standing in the hall of the Shanghai Automobile Quality Inspection Center. In half an hour, the Thunderbolt car's remote driving function test, which the entire Hua Xia people are focusing on, will begin. "
"I believe that everyone can already feel the importance of this test from the nervous and serious expressions of the technical staff at the scene."
"According to the news from the scene, the United States will also send a technical representative to serve as a third-party monitoring agency. Also, I noticed that the president of Monster Industries, Mr. Ye Qing, is also here. "A female reporter wearing a yellow vest was excitedly chasing the crowd in front of her.
The audience watching the live broadcast could clearly see through the camera lens that there was a young man with a dignified appearance in front of them, who was surrounded by a circle of people.
It was just that this petite female reporter couldn't squeeze into the circle of people even after squeezing left and right.
"Look, everyone, the innermost one is the president of Monster Industries. It's just that we're late. There are so many people around him that I can't squeeze in to interview him. "
"Forget it, I'll take everyone to the door to wait for the United States representative."
