Monster Factory - Chapter 744: Outstanding ride experience.
The remote drive function has started and entered a 60-second countdown. At this time, countless netizens were squatting their computers and cell phones, constantly updating all the reports related to the remote driving feature. At this moment, I don’t know how many Shi Lei car owners in the Shanghai area, hooking their fingers on the gray [Enable] icon, were waiting for the countdown to end.
Yan Xiao Li set the car’s air conditioning to 18 degrees; otherwise, he would feel he would sweat profusely.
There were ten seconds left in the countdown, Yan Xiao Li moved his fingers quickly because according to his gaming experience when a hit game was just released, the invitation code was stolen within seconds. The remote driving function, all of China is paying attention to it, and now is the first opening moment, it will definitely be more difficult to grasp than the game invitation code.
There were three seconds left in the countdown, and Yan Xiao Li took a deep breath, placed his index finger and thumbs on the icons, and moved his jaw back and forth at maximum speed.
When the countdown disappeared, Yan Xiao Li watched helplessly, and a count bar that should have been a quota was emptied in an instant. He was about to cry in despair when a line of words suddenly appeared on the central control screen.
Connecting, please wait…
After a few seconds, an ethereal electronic sound came out of the speaker: “Remote drive connection successful, please leave the driver’s seat.”
Yan Xiao Li hastily opened the door and ran to the co-pilot position.
“Driver’s seat protection mode is about to start.”
As the electronic sound subsided, the power-adjustable driver’s seat slowly moved forward. Electrically adjustable seats have now become popular in mid- to high-end cars, and a variety of electrically adjustable seats can also be seen in cars produced in countries that emphasize versatility.
However, even with millions of imported luxury cars, the adjustable angle of the power seat cannot be compared with the low-end version of the Shi Lei car.
The snug power-adjustable seat simply blocked major control structures such as the steering wheel, throttle, and brake, and also prevented the possibility of limbs sitting in the driver’s seat.
“The car operating system was supported remotely. Passengers are prompted to set the destination on the navigation or complete the positioning via the smart assistant.”
“Xiao Xue, let’s go to the North Gate of Song Liang Park.”
Yan Xiao Li sat down in the co-pilot’s seat, feeling uneasy, waiting for the car to start automatically.
“Master, positioning is complete, please fasten your seatbelt,”
Xiao Xue, a court girl, was already sitting behind the wheel of the Shi Lei virtual car on the central control screen.
“Master, we are leaving,”
As soon as the assistant Xiao Xue finished speaking, the Shi Lei car under Yan Xiao Li’s buttocks emitted the unique engine start sound of new energy vehicles. The daytime running lights turned on and became a single green spotlight in a remote driving mode. Then, in perfect reverse action, the rapidly thundering car pulled out of the crowded parking space and headed down the road to merge into traffic. Sitting in the passenger seat, Yan Xiao Li opened his mouth as wide as a hippo waiting for a tooth to be pulled.
Is this remote driving?
Yan Xiao Li felt he was riding in the Bentley belonging to the boss of his company, and the boss’s professional driver was sitting next to him and driving. He has nothing to say about the car reversing just now and didn’t notice the stopping feel of the brakes at all.
And the smooth running process is much smoother than when he was in driving school. The coach brought showy performance skills. Now the Shi Lei car is on the main road. From the moment the first red light in front was turned on, to the moment Shi Lei’s car stopped a meter away from the car in front, Yan Xiao Li really felt a stable and stable feeling as if he was sitting on his couch.
Then… the owner of a Volkswagen waiting for the turn on his left corner rolled down the window and almost raised his owl eyes, and when the green light came on, Yan Xiao Li felt that the car Shi Lei under him was completely tied to the car in front. As soon as the car in front moved, he had no delay, and his car moved with it, accurately saving all the time that could be.
……
Twenty minutes later, the Shi Lei car took Yan Xiao Li to the north gate of Song Liang Park. Then he felt his world become bright and dazzling. Because since the last class reunion, the person of secret love whom he hasn’t seen for more than two years, was standing under Song Liang’s park gate at the moment. The breeze was blowing lightly, and the girl’s long hair and long skirt dancing with the wind made her feel it was the most beautiful picture of her heart.
As for the friend next to Zhang Rui Yu who wanted to experience the remote driving function, Yan Xiao Li automatically ignored her; he didn’t even notice she was holding a camera with a handmade tripod and a sun hat with Shanghai TV LOGO on the head.
“Young master, we arrived at the north gate of Song Liang Park. This time, we spent 3.5 Yuan on remote driving. Do you want me to find you a place in the parking lot?”
“I want to go somewhere else, let’s go later.”
What a joke, at noon the remote driving quota was instantly withdrawn. Yan Xiao Li thought the cost of 3.5 Yuan was so cheap it would be no problem for him to run until the next day, and he asked the little helper to drive the car alongside Zhang Rui Yu, then got out of the car and showed the warmest smile to the goddess of his spirit.
“Yan Xiao Li?”
Zhang Rui Yu quickly recognized him. After all, they were both classmates, even though Yan Xiao Li was unexceptional in school. He was an old classmate who hadn’t seen her for a long time and felt she was more beautiful and moving than when she was at school. The years have taken away some of her greenness and added some of the most seductive charms of her age. I don’t know if it was an illusion or not, but he felt that many people walking in and out of the park around him were shooting at him and her with burning eyes.
Yan Xiao Li tried his best to maintain his demeanor, and then opened the back seat door and invited Zhang Rui Yu and the friend he didn’t even want to get into the car.
He originally planned to sit as the co-pilot, but the girl who introduced herself as Liu Fei, a girl who worked in a TV station, took the initiative to sit as the co-pilot, claiming that from this post she could better capture the performance of the car Shi Lei when driving from a distance, then Yan Xiao Li was generous and sat down with the goddess of her secret love.
……
The goddesses are also human, often beautiful females, and very curious.
……
It was the first time Zhang Rui Yu and Liu Fei rode in a Shi Lei car, and they posed a hundred thousand what. The two of them said left and right what that button was for then said: “Wow, this car is so good, it can really drive ‘unmanned’.”
When Shi Lei’s car drove the 1st kilometer, and according to Yan Xiao Li’s request, when they started heading towards the FX area, the two girls were almost on the verge of saying “I’m counting on ~ I press ~”.
What type of remote driving is it?
Zhang Rui Yu, who has seen big scenes and ridden in most big-brand luxury cars, said that if she doesn’t consider the luxury of the car’s interior, just from the perspective of the smooth driving experience, Yan Xiao Li’s Shi Lei car is better than his uncle’s Rolls-Royce to be equally comfortable.
With the help of supercomputers, this Shi Lei car can accurately drive along the road planning line, and can accurately calculate the distance of each traffic light, to ensure passengers can arrive at each traffic light intersection with maximum comfort. To complicate things, the Shi Lei car can roughly judge the duration of the next green light based on the status of the upcoming light and then drive fast or slow and try to meet the green light when it reached the intersection.
This function, although not easy to achieve in urban areas with a lot of traffic. Because there are always motorists who are in a hurry and don’t know what to do, they keep trying to catch the light, even if it’s a red light, they have to press the accelerator to catch it, then brake hard, and wait a minute or two.
But the FX area is a suburb, it is close to the sea, and the urban structure is mainly villages, with wide roads and large green areas. Therefore, as the traffic flow decreases, Shi Lei’s intelligent green light function becomes more and more extraordinary. At each intersection, there are almost always green lights, and it detects no braking sensation. Sometimes the speed slows down because it makes no sense to accelerate along a hundred meters and find yourself in front of a red and brake sharply.
There was also Xiao Xue, an intelligent assistant. Along the way, Liu Fei almost chatted with Xiao Xue to become best friends. The small camera used for the shooting was put on Xiao Xue for a third of the time.
Unknowingly, Yan Xiao Li and Zhang Rui Yu chatted more and more happily, and the two even took the initiative to exchange WeChat. Although Lui didn’t dare to have bold ideas in his heart, he couldn’t say he didn’t have them at all.
When Shi Lei’s car approached Zhou Lu Village, the green trees swaying on the side of the road and the vast and beautiful countryside made Zhang Rui Yu smile charmingly. She simply asked Yan Xiao Li to open the car window and sunroof, get out of the sunroof and use her cell phone to take a picture of her with her cell phone. The phone she was using was Meitu T8, and Yan Xiao Li took the opportunity to show her his Magic Crystal mobile phone and then told her that the 3D camera effect of this phone is very amazing and it is the best of all cell phones.
“The best camera effect is not the Magic Crystal mobile phone,” Liu Fei, who worked at the TV station, criticized and added with a smile, “You don’t know, a lot of girls are now waiting for the Huge Industrial Monster launches this kind of little flying dolphin, that’s the real selfie artifact.”
The slow-moving Shi Lei car just hit the breeze, and the wind blew Zhang Rui Yu’s long hair, allowing her delicate face to shine in Yan Xiao Li’s drunken eyes. On the wide asphalt road, just as the three of them were intoxicated with this beautiful atmosphere, there was a sudden roar of an engine behind them. A Land Rover Discovery 4 caught up with them from behind.
“I rely on ~”
“I’m counting on ~ I’m counting on ~ I’m counting on ~”
The Land Rover also had all the windows down, and a few young guys their age stuck their heads out and stared at the thunderous car next to them like hell. Shi Lei’s car window was rolled down, and the people inside were enjoying the natural wind, and the scene where there was no one in the natural driving seat was also seen by them.
“Dude, beauties, please don’t scare me, why don’t you have a driver in this car?”
“Ha ha ~ I’m dumbfounded, it’s a super-fast car that can be driven remotely,” Liu Fei laughed at them triumphantly: “Now there are only less than 1,000 cars in experience in the city of Shanghai. You are lucky to meet one of them!”
Then there were puffs of funny bullshit. The Land Rover followed for more than ten minutes. The guys in the car also invited them to play at a golf course a few miles away saying the golf course is theirs and they don’t need any money to play there.
How fun can it be to play in a Shi Lei car?
Liu Fei and Zhang Rui Yu immediately refused, and the two cars separated at the red light in Zhou Lu Village, and after driving a little further, they reached the seaside. As a result, the Shi Lei car passed the next green light and an electric car rushed from the zebra crossing to the other side.
“Beep ~ beep ~” Before the three people in the car could react, a fast-moving heavyweight hissed frantically.
Accompanied by the harsh honking of the heavy truck’s horn, there was also the stinging sound of the heavy truck’s brakes.
