At this moment, no one expected such a thrilling "car accident" to happen in Shanghai less than half a day after the launch of long-distance driving.
Coincidentally, there was also a reporter sitting in this long-distance driving Thunderbolt car. She was specifically covering the long-distance driving function.
Professional photography, multi-angle, multi-shot editing.
Countless people, in addition to being amazed and having lingering fears, also thoroughly understood the long-distance driving of the Thunderbolt car.
Zhu Feiling, American Chinese.
He was currently working at CNN in the United States, and his position was the news editor of the international news section.
CNN is the American cable news network. It is one of the largest news organizations in the world. Its official website was an important way for countless American people to obtain news and information.
For the past month, Zhu Feiling had been doing Hua Xia news. To be precise, it was Monster Industries' Thunderbolt car news.
Ever since Time Magazine brought America's focus to Monster Industries, Zhu Feiling had been in charge of following up on this news. He was responsible for the portal's international news, and the Internet pursued timeliness. Therefore, Zhu Feiling had been staying up late every day, going to Hua Xia's news website to search for news related to the Thunderbolt car.
Since four days ago, when the American representative returned from the testing site, Zhu Feiling's superiors had said that the Thunderbolt car news would be ignored for a while.
After all, this kind of thing was embarrassing for the American media that had followed the commotion. CNN was also one of them, and now naturally, they had to shrink their heads like a turtle.
Zhu Feiling couldn't release news about Monster Industries, but he still had to release news about Hua Xia. He was proficient in Chinese, familiar with the style of speech in Hua Xia's major Tieba forums, and had dozens of portal accounts. At the same time, he had his own unique way of moving Hua Xia's hot news.
He didn't have to think hard to judge. He directly logged into Baidu's billboard and checked Hua Xia's 24-hour hot news search.
During this period, the real-time hot news on the billboard had been dominated by Monster Industries.
Energy Service Center, America's face slapped by Monster Industries, the new automobile revolution, smart travel changing lives …
These keywords were all about the Thunderbolt car. Zhu Feiling was very happy to see them, but it was a pity that he couldn't post them. The higher-ups had given orders.
After finishing his work today, Zhu Feiling opened Baidu's Top Influencers List as usual. He was preparing to search for news material for tomorrow's international news section when he suddenly rubbed his eyes subconsciously.
Wait a minute ~
What the hell?
One, ten, hundred, thousand …
Zhu Feiling counted three times to make sure that his eyes were not playing tricks on him. A keyword called [Life Hanging by a Thread, Thunderbolt car Escapes], astonishingly … astonishingly had more than 40 million searches.
Zhu Feiling felt his hair stand on end. He had just logged into the billboard three hours ago. At that time, the number one trending topic was [Remote Driving Officially Launched], which had millions of searches. It had only been three hours. What kind of earth-shattering news had happened to Hua Xia?
One had to know that the Battle Through the Heavens novel that he had chased had dominated the hot search list for many years. When it was finished, the number of hot searches was only 60 million. At that time, no matter what the popular stars of Hua Xia did, they could not reach the top of the hot search list. Even Little Shenyang's overnight fame during the Spring Festival Gala was not enough.
In three hours, the number of hot searches was more than 40 million. What kind of concept was this?
Zhu Feiling knew that something big had happened. This big news was about the Thunderbolt car under Monster Industries.
He trembled as he opened a few news websites that he paid attention to. Then, he went to the Tianya Forum …
The overwhelming news completely occupied Zhu Feiling's eyes like a tide.
Five minutes later, Zhu Feiling, who had finished watching the video, grabbed the phone and roared, "Chief Editor, reserve a topic for me on the front page immediately. Right now. I want to publish big news in ten minutes. "
Listening to his subordinate's thunderous voice, the chief editor of the international news section, Bordello, suppressed his excitement and asked, "Don't worry, tell me slowly. The topic on the front page is ready at any time."
"It's the Thunderbolt car from Monster Industries."
"F * ck, how many times have I told you, don't publish news about Monster Industries." Bordello was angry. How many times had he emphasized this?
"Don't be in a hurry to explain too much. I have sent the video to your email. In ten minutes, I can write a few lines of commentary content. Every second we delay, we may be preempted by others."
Two minutes later, Bordello jumped out of his chair directly. His forehead was covered in a large amount of cold sweat.
Ten minutes later, Bordello quickly sent the content written by his subordinate, together with the video, to the front page of the official website. When the topic was refreshed on the front page, Bordello opened a series of news portals in the same industry as if he had been electrocuted.
After spending a few minutes reading it, Bordello slumped in his chair and breathed a sigh of relief.
He was sure that at this moment, countless peers had already sniffed out the video. However, CNN had taken the first place.
…
Half an hour later, the Internet news websites of the United States were severely affected.
The five-minute video from Hua Xia appeared on most news websites. The Americans who woke up were shocked to find out. In Hua Xia, the Thunderbolt car, which they had not paid much attention to before, had become a core "figure" that had created history and changed the era.
It could not be said that the Americans did not care. The main reason was that the previous media had a lot of thunder and little rain. The cold treatment measures made the public ignore the Thunderbolt car.
Now, the halo of the Thunderbolt car could no longer be covered by anyone.
There was no one in the driver's seat?
The supercomputer intervened in an instant. Under certain death, a way out?
Accelerated to 65 km/h in 1.4 seconds?
Liu Fei sat in the car and shot the video from a first-person perspective. It made all the Americans who had watched it understand what it meant to be soul-stirring.
On CNN's official news website, which was the first to release the video, all the viewers were firmly conquered by the Thunderbolt car.
At this moment, the American people no longer thought about national interests. They no longer thought about Monster Industries, which was previously described as a dictatorial technological empire by Time Magazine. They only felt that their blood was boiling, and they were fantasizing about the wonderful scene of themselves owning the Thunderbolt car.
"Why didn't the Department of Commerce collectively climb the Empire State Building and then jump down?"
"God, I never imagined it. The remote driving function launched by Monster Industries will be operated in this way. This is no longer a manned or unmanned vehicle. Only God can react in that situation. However, God will not come, but Monster Industries used technology to create God. "
"After watching the video, I suddenly understood why our Department of Commerce and those news media collectively lost their voices when the Thunderbolt car was tested four days ago. Because they are all clowns, ridiculous clowns. "
"I can't afford a Pagani, I can't afford a Bugatti, but I can afford a Thunderbolt car. Why did the Department of Commerce stop us from buying a Thunderbolt? Why did the Department of Commerce previously say that if the Thunderbolt car does not cancel the remote driving function, they will be banned from the American market? Are they afraid? They must be afraid. "
"I seriously tell everyone that in the field of smart cars, we are at least ten years behind Monster Industries."
"Oh, my friend above, is it the kind of calendar that has six hundred days in a year?"
"Once, I was envious of being born in the United States, the most technologically advanced country. But now, I want to be a Hua Xia person, because I can buy a Thunderbolt car. Sitting in a Thunderbolt car, I think I can directly tear up the driver's license. "
"Ridiculous Tesla, ridiculous Times Weekly, ridiculous us."
"Let's do it, my friends, let's work hard for the Thunderbolt car to enter the American market!"
… …
The next day, on the White House petition website, a proposal titled "Please allow the Thunderbolt car to enter the American market" was signed by nearly half a million people in just a few hours.
At two o 'clock in the afternoon, faced with the surging signatures, the press spokesman had to hold a special press conference to respond to the proposal.
At the press conference, the spokesman who was pushed out told the people in a very regretful tone.
It was not that the Department of Commerce refused to allow the Thunderbolt car to enter the market. In fact, five days ago, when the Thunderbolt car was tested under the supervision of various institutions. The United States believed that the remote driving function of the Thunderbolt car was feasible in the United States.
Therefore, they specially sent a representative to talk to the president of Monster Industries, hoping to reach a consensus on the Thunderbolt car entering the United States.
And in the meeting, the United States was willing to cooperate with Monster Industries to build an energy service center, make practical efforts for the alternative energy vehicle industry, and set a new standard for the global alternative energy vehicle industry.
But …
Monster Industries, once again, refused the cooperation request.
"We do not know the motive of Monster Industries' refusal for the time being. But we, the United States, will continue to uphold the concept of cooperation between the two sides, at any time, under any background, we will always uphold it. So here, I also appeal to Monster Industries to let the Thunderbolt car out of Hua Xia and join the global family of smart cars. "
After the frowning spokesman finished reading the script, he excused himself from everyone and left the speaker's seat. He left many of the media alone in their seats in a mess.
Throw the blame to Monster Industries!
Anyway, what the spokesman said was not false.
After the test of the remote driving function was over, Tesla's chief executive, Martin, went to Shanghai in a low-key manner and had a 20-minute meeting with the president of Monster Industries.
It was true that Monster Industries had refused the cooperation plan, but there was no need to tell the public that this cooperation plan required Monster Industries to use the core technology of the plasma battery in exchange for the huge United States market.
"Monster Industries refused?
Then, will your Department of Commerce lower your posture and use more preferential policies to subsidize and pull Monster Industries back? "
"It must be the previous announcement of the Department of Commerce and the nonsense of Times Weekly that hurt Monster Industries. Otherwise, why would Monster Industries refuse?"
"Who knows whether it's true or not? As far as I know, Monster Industries' magic crystal phone has always been banned by the Department of Commerce. Who would be happy about this?"
"The spokesman's official language is nice to hear. Monster Industries, previously, very sincerely invited the United States representative to serve as a third-party supervisory agency. How could they be willing to give up the United States market? It must be the Department of Commerce that joined forces with those capitalists to secretly boycott Monster Industries. "
This time, the United States people did not want to do it.
According to them, Monster Industries, a technology company that had made outstanding contributions to the good life of mankind, even if they had to beg, they would ask to come to the United States.
As long as the Thunderbolt car could enter the United States, it would be fine to sell it to a small country.
Just like how Hua Xia had a large number of fans, in the United States, even if people had not used a Monster Industries product.
