Chapter 731: The question of fear.
The applause went on for a long time, and many media reporters who had previously reported negative news about the remote driving function couldn't help but close their eyes and applaud with all their might. A great product was born, and they can't deny it.
…….
Throwing dirty water on this product will only show how ignorant and ridiculous I am.
…….
The boiling applause was transmitted from the live broadcast room to the Internet, and it also attracted countless viewers who were watching the live broadcast at the time, to feel that thousands of soldiers were galloping in their hearts. The applause lasted for a full minute before gradually fading, but the eyes of the people on the stage looking at Shi Lei's car became like looking at an idol.
"It is a miracle of technology, before announcing the Shi Lei car has passed this test task. First, let me tell you a few things; it is not difficult to know who is behind this score," director Duan Shuang Qing kept waving his hands, to signal everyone to relax first: "Everyone knows that in the process of driving, the driver has a very small chance to encounter various accidents. Most of them are minor and controllable accidents. However, once a major uncontrollable accident occurs, it often leads to harmful accidents. According to our previous tests and analysis of results, when a driver encounters an accident, it typically takes 0.5 seconds to determine whether to slow down, brake, or steer."
"That 0.5 seconds is our brain's reaction time. When our brain makes a judgment and then applies the vehicle's brake, it takes an average of 0.35 seconds. In total, the average driver's braking time is about 0.85 seconds All types of family cars have been tested At 100 kilometers per hour, the average braking stopping distance is 35 meters At 100 kilometers per hour, the car travels 28 meters in 1 second. From the moment you realize you need to brake, then apply the brakes, this time, the car has already traveled more than 20 meters, plus the braking distance of 35 meters. This is the safety distance ultimate in the event of an accident."
"Whether..."
"What about the Shi Lei car?"
Director Duan Shuang Qing's eyes were full of longing: "I think everyone can easily find the answer."
The people present nodded involuntarily.
"If it was a Shi Lei car, it would enter the braking procedure after one meter, which is tens of times shorter than the distance traveled by human beings. In addition, the 100-kilometer stopping distance of the Shi Lei car is also far less than the average stopping distance of 35 meters that we measured based on a large number of family cars. It only needs a distance of 27 meters to come to a complete stop."
It was an exclamation, then the applause sounded again, and everyone's eyes were close to frenzy, and after director Duan Shuang Qing's explanation, everyone understood more intuitively, what precisely the Shi Lei car behind is that perfect score?
Although there were still many tests to be done in the sequel, with this one the Shi Lei car was able to eclipse the crowd and overwhelm any model of the same price. Even in some material parameters, the million-dollar luxury car is incomparable to the Shi Lei car. Especially in front of United States representatives and a large group of foreign journalists, they used the most scientific method to test the extraordinary characteristics of the Shi Lei car.
This strong feeling of pride made the public present particularly warm.
"Wait a minute!"
Just as Director Duan Shuang Qing was about to begin the next stage of testing, United States Representative Jayne and senior Tesla technicians to her left and right stood up.
"What's wrong..."
Director Duan Shuang Qing looked at them puzzled.
"For the sake of justice, we want to ask to see the photos of the traffic signs captured by the Shi Lei car during the previous test," Jayne looked around and looked at the excited crowd with a little contempt: "During the previous test, we noticed a more professional detail, and this detail is actually related to the majority of journalists and guests."
The techs next to Jayne didn't speak. They just silently took out their iPhones, one turned on the fill light and the other turned on the camera function, aiming the fill light to take pictures. Their actions left reporters at the scene very perplexed. Where does this detail come from and how does it have anything to do with them?
The mystery was quickly revealed; the iPhone took several photos, but none of them were clearly visible, all with dazzling overexposed apertures.
Reporters were stunned for a few seconds, and then suddenly realized. Before, under the leadership of the American reporter, everyone followed the wind and ran to the front of the car to take a front shot of the Shi Lei car. At that time, flashing lights flashed like the Oscars. Thinking about this, everyone was worried and quickly turned their attention to the Huge Industrial Monster.
"Let's take a picture of this cell phone and compare it with the Shi Lei car. Do you think it's ridiculous?"
Before Kong Tao could get up, Master Craftsman stood up first, with undisguised disdain in his eyes, and asked: "Have you ever driven a car?"
Jayne nodded and immediately asked her: "Did I drive a car at night?"
"Since you drove a car at night, were you dazzled by the high beams?" Master Craftsman paused: "You may have come across a car with xenon headlights on it at night, but you've never driven a Shi Lei car. So you don't know the Shi Lei car has a mode driving at night, and she's unafraid of high beams."
Master Craftsman shrugged. Under the gaze of hundreds of media, his eyes do not disdain. In his eyes, there was no country at all, only the boss. The American side only represents the American side, and most people's faces have become ugly. Too bad they have ignored it since the beginning of the tests.
"Do you still want to see this photo?"
The United States Representative's face grew even uglier. Jayne looked around and saw the media's eyes were full of bad encouragement: "You need pictures fast."
It wasn't too big to watch the excitement. The Huge Industrial Monster said the Shi Lei car wasn't afraid of any strong light. That's why the media were full of curiosity and want to see how fearless he is.
"No...I don't want to watch." The tech next to Jayne gritted his teeth and continued to wink at her.
"Since the United States representative has doubts, let's show it properly," director Duan Shuang Qing was also a person who didn't think it was a big deal. After speaking, he winked at Jayne, and then added: "After all, it's fair and just. That's the heart of our test."
In this test, the data was uploaded and received by the Shi Lei car, and they all have backups here. Coincidentally, there was another big screen here. The staff next to them performed quick operations on the keyboard, and after a while, the photo appeared on the big screen. Each photo was marked with the time and number, and starting from the 50th number, the color brightness of the photo became noticeably higher. It was this lightning color that made the road sign in the middle even clearer, and even the peeling paint on it was even more visible.
The technical personnel represented by the United States turned red and became extremely hot.
"I see." Jayne took a deep breath and brushed the embarrassment off her face. Whatever, it doesn't matter, she had a killer mace.
"Also, we have one more question here. During the one-hour period of the previous test, we detected a total of nine network fluctuations, of which seven were small fluctuations and two were large fluctuations. These two large fluctuations let our instrument be disconnected twice, and the first time lasted 1.2 seconds, the second time lasted 3 seconds," Jayne underlined her tone and pointed out: "I would like to invite the representatives of the Huge Industrial Monster, to explain to me why Shi Lei's car was not affected in any way during these two network fluctuations?"
The noisy test center suddenly went quiet, and suspicious glances swirled between the representatives of the American side and the representatives of the Huge Industrial Monster.
Some knowledge does not need popular science, especially for journalists, they can understand. In particular, these reporters are inseparable from the Internet at all times of their work.
The United States side didn't just talk about it, and they quickly printed out a graph of the network's fluctuations. On this chart, there were two large lattice fluctuations that broke the red interval line, and the atmosphere, with the appearance of this chart, became quieter and quieter.
A very serious problem has occurred. These reporters understand that no matter how the Shi Lei car has optimized the network, it is impossible to maintain a connection with the Shanghai city control center without a 4G signal. Like the most fuel-efficient car, it is impossible to drive without fuel.
The signal strength of the network was then by the state of the nearby base stations, could it be that the Huge Industrial Monster and the test center were something hidden... The reporters thought of a possibility.
This kind of guesswork has made most reporters in China cold and fearful. In the end, they could only ask for help, looking at the representative of the Huge Industrial Monster.
