The Immortal Warrior: From Reverse Engineering to Forging Swords for the Country

Driving the H9 out of the exhibition hall, Zhang Zhipeng felt that the accelerator of this car seemed not so sensitive.

Generally speaking, shouldn't the motor react faster?
When you step on the accelerator, the motor should respond quickly and acceleration will occur immediately.

But that is clearly not the case now.

Zhang Zhipeng immediately told Yu Chengdong what he was thinking: "Chengdong, the responsiveness of this car's motor is not enough."

"Didn't you say that it only takes less than 3 seconds to accelerate from zero to kilometers?"

Yu Chengdong obviously knew that Zhang Zhipeng might ask such a question.

He smiled and said, "Boss, this is the genius of our car!"

"Think about it, the place we are in now is not suitable for speeding at all, right? If we drive too fast, we might crash."

"So, in this environment, the vehicle speed is controlled at a maximum of 60 kilometers per hour."

"Even if you step on the accelerator to the bottom, it won't explode into speed immediately!"

This function surprised Zhang Zhipeng a little.

Because, in his previous life, he had never heard of a smart car having such a function.

This is a manifestation of intelligence!

Zhang Zhipeng had no involvement in the field of smart cars at all.

Therefore, he really doesn’t know much about Huaxing Smart Car.

"You said that even if I step on the accelerator to the bottom, the car will not accelerate rapidly?" Zhang Zhipeng asked.

Yu Chengdong nodded and said, "Yes, it will respond to your action of stepping on the accelerator, but it won't suddenly burst out!"

Zhang Zhipeng said: "So I have to try it now!?"

Yu Chengdong smiled: "No problem! Just try it, boss!"

"There will definitely not be any accidents!"

When Zhang Zhipeng heard Yu Chengdong speak so confidently, he immediately stepped on the accelerator.

He stepped on the accelerator to the bottom.

The car's motor made a "humming" sound, and the speed was indeed much faster.

However, it is only about 50 kilometers per hour.

Zhang Zhipeng nodded and said, "This function is good. It shows that our intelligent car system is well made. It allows the car to control the speed according to the surrounding environment. This is really a great function."

Yu Chengdong said: "We also have a very powerful AEB emergency braking function."

“It can effectively prevent emergencies on the road.”

"You can also drive and test it yourself later."

Zhang Zhipeng nodded and said, "Well! Then I must give it a try!"

As they were talking, they arrived at the test track at the back.

Here, there are two cars circling.

It looks like the car is going quite fast.

As soon as Zhang Zhipeng came over, the two vehicles being tested stopped.

Zhang Zhipeng drove to the ring road.

"Boss, a dummy simulating a person crossing the road will suddenly appear in front of the car you are driving. I'm giving you a heads up."

Yu Chengdong said to Zhang Zhipeng.

Zhang Zhipeng nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

Zhang Zhipeng drove the car around in circles to test its performance.

On this 5-kilometer loop, Zhang Zhipeng discovered that the car's acceleration was indeed very impressive.

As soon as you step on the accelerator, the car will rush forward suddenly.

But you'd say it rushed forward very quickly?

In fact, it actually runs quite steadily.

In short, the handling performance of electric vehicles is indeed much better than that of gasoline vehicles.

"This car is really nice to drive." Zhang Zhipeng said to Yu Chengdong who was sitting in the passenger seat.

Yu Chengdong smiled and said, "Of course! Electric vehicles are more responsive and easier to make fully intelligent. This is an indisputable fact."

"Boss, you have to be careful."

As he was speaking, when Zhang Zhipeng was driving around a bend, suddenly, a dummy riding an electric skateboard jumped out from the side.

He was going to pass directly in front of the car driven by Zhang Zhipeng.

At that time, the dummy was about six or seven meters away from the front of the car.

The electric skateboard under its feet is not slow either.

Even when Zhang Zhipeng was driving around a corner, his speed was still around 70 kilometers per hour.

This means that the car will travel nearly 20 meters in one second!
Human reaction speed is obviously not that fast.

At this moment, the car's AEB came into play. It first braked suddenly, then turned right and drove past the dummy in a flash.

In other words, while emergency braking was in progress, the car also made an emergency evasive maneuver and avoided the danger!
This made Zhang Zhipeng a little excited.

"Fuck!"

"This, this is too fierce, right?"

"It can actually make an emergency evasive detour in such an emergency situation?!"

“This car is really smart!”

Zhang Zhipeng shouted a few times.

This was the first time in all these years that he had lost his composure.

It was also the first time that Yu Chengdong saw his boss making such a fuss.

He said, "So, boss, you approve of the active safety features of this car, right?"

Zhang Zhipeng nodded and said, "Satisfied! Very satisfied!"

“So, can I start trying autopilot now?”

Generally speaking, autonomous driving is divided into two technical routes.

One is the visual route and the other is the lidar route.

The visual route is to install a large number of cameras on the car to identify surrounding objects, and then add the data to the neural network for calculation, so as to guide the car to automatically avoid obstacles and achieve unmanned driving.

The lidar route, on the other hand, is to achieve perception of the surrounding environment by combining multiple layers of technologies such as lidar, millimeter-wave radar, ultrasonic sensors, and cameras.

Obviously, the lidar route is more sensitive and has a longer scanning range.

LiDAR routing also allows for light-free driving, as it relies on “sensing” road conditions to move along the road rather than necessarily seeing them.

Huaxing adopts the laser radar route.

Yu Chengdong said: "Of course!"

"Boss, you just need to tell the car, 'Xiaohong, please turn on the autopilot function'."

Xiaohong is a voice assistant developed by Huaxing Company. This voice assistant was developed not long ago and was originally intended to be used on mobile phones first.

But now it is first used in Huaxing smart cars.

Zhang Zhipeng said as Yu Chengdong said: "Xiaohong, please turn on the automatic driving function!"

In its previous life, Apple officially launched the intelligent voice assistant Siri in 2016.

After the launch of this voice assistant, it immediately caused a sensation around the world and became another major selling point for Apple.

In this life, smartphones were first launched by Huaxing Company, and Apple missed the opportunity to subvert and lead the mobile phone industry.

To be honest, smart phones have only been launched for a year, and the first generation of smart phones are still selling well. In fact, there is no need for smart phone technology to iterate too quickly.

Zhang Zhipeng thinks that if voice assistants are used in smart cars and can defeat the luxury car giants, the cost-effectiveness may be higher.

"The intelligent driving system has been turned on! Next, the system will take over driving!"

"Xiaohong is here to remind you: Please be ready to take over the steering wheel at any time according to the reminder. I wish you a safe trip and worry-free smart driving!"

After the voice assistant finished responding, Zhang Zhipeng carefully let go of the steering wheel.

At the same time, he released his foot from the accelerator pedal.

The car started to move automatically.

At the beginning, Zhang Zhipeng was a little worried that something might go wrong.

However, he soon put his heart at ease.

Because this car's automatic driving system is just like an experienced driver, its response is really good.

Zhang Zhipeng asked Yu Chengdong: "Is it possible to use the autonomous driving function throughout the country according to the guidance of the navigation map?"

Yu Chengdong responded with a smile: "At present, there should be no problems in major cities, highways and major national roads across the country, and autonomous driving can be used."

"With the help of accurate navigation maps, there will be no problem with autonomous driving."

"Of course, we will definitely launch map-free autonomous driving in the future."

“Throw the map aside, you can achieve true autonomous driving no matter where you are!”

"When that time comes, it will be considered as truly intelligent autonomous driving."

Yu Chengdong explained to Zhang Zhipeng, who nodded as he listened.

He was very satisfied: even without his personal supervision, Huaxing's intelligent driving could still produce such high-quality products.

"very good!"

"So, when are you going to start bringing this car to market?"

Yu Chengdong said: "Do you have any instructions?"

Zhang Zhipeng smiled and said, "I don't need to give any instructions now. You can do it on your own and see how you can arrange it."

"We are preparing to launch our smart car at the Beijing Autumn Auto Show," Yu Chengdong said.

"In addition, we will increase publicity efforts during the auto show to promote the concept of intelligent driving and let bloggers publish their own insights on Huaxing's intelligent cars, thereby creating a dissemination effect in society."

Zhang Zhipeng nodded and said, "Very good!"

"Just do it as planned! If you need my support in the future, just submit a report to the internal management system and I will review and approve it!"

"Well! We need to make the system smoother and more user-friendly, and we also need to consider anti-theft functions. People always think that too many smart systems are not safe and stable. We must try our best to avoid bugs and eliminate the places that make customers feel bad. We must strive for perfection!"

Zhang Zhipeng still gave some suggestions.

However, he knew that what he said was just old stuff.

I guess Yu Chengdong should have already considered all of this and will definitely be working on improving it seriously.

Yu Chengdong himself is a perfectionist!

Yu Chengdong said: "Boss, please rest assured that we will work hard to make it a perfect smart car!"

Zhang Zhipeng nodded and said, "Yes! I hope you can bring me more surprises!"

……

Although Huaxing Smart Car has not yet been officially launched on the market, the legend about it has never stopped in the world.

There are always some well-informed people releasing some gossips.

Moreover, every piece of gossip can cause a stir on China's online platforms.

After all, Huaxing Automobile has become a giant today.

It almost monopolizes the global automobile market below the B-segment.

The once invincible foot basin car has now been beaten to pieces by it.

The decline and failure of Jiaoben Automobile also caused the entire Jiaoben to sink, and even their GDP began to decline sharply.

It looks like there is a high chance that China will fall into the ranks of developing countries in the first decade of the 21st century.

This is unbearable for the foot basin.

The people in Jiaoben are now thinking about it day and night, and all they think about is reviving their automobile industry.

They also know that if they want to revive their automobile industry, they must have a completely new technological route and must have unique features to attract consumers!

But now, the high-tech development of foot basins has long been shattered.

They were once a chip manufacturing powerhouse and almost owned the entire industrial chain of the chip industry.

However, unfortunately, they are a semi-colony, and with just one word from Trump, their chip industry chain was dismantled and the backbone of their development was broken.

Even if the people in Jiaoben want to focus on smart cars, they don’t have any technical accumulation.

Without technology, it is obviously impossible to make a breakthrough in a short period of time.

Unless there is a shortcut.

So, the foot basin man came up with a devilish idea.

They wanted to use some means to commit theft. If they could get all of Huaxing's smart car technology, wouldn't that mean they could also start to accelerate the development of smart cars?
Li Li is such a commercial spy.

She serves the foot basin.

But she is Chinese.

She graduated from university in China and then went to Jiaoben to study for a master's degree.

While studying for her master's degree, she was developed by her supervisor into an intelligence specialist.

She has a crazy liking for foot basins in her bones.

She is the legendary spiritual person.

After further training, Li Li naturally became more loyal to the foot basin.

Li Li stayed in Jiaoben for two years. After graduating from graduate school, she returned to China two years ago.

She began to follow her mentor's arrangements, hoping to be able to enter one of China's top companies as an undercover agent.

However, what frustrates Li Li is that although she is a graduate student from Dongjing University, it is not easy for her to enter one of the top companies in China.

Li Li discovered that China's top companies actually prefer students who graduated from prestigious universities in the country.

This made Li Li feel a little depressed.

Li Li has worked in Shenzhen for two years.

By the way, the company she works for is Penguin.

Li Li knew that Penguin was also a Huaxing company.

She stayed at Penguin with the goal of entering Warwick or Huaxing.

She hopes that she can get into these two giant companies as soon as possible, preferably to become a senior executive.

In this way, she can have high authority to see technical secrets.

She can then steal as she pleases.

Li Li has just received a task: to obtain the complete set of information of Huaxing Intelligent Automobile as soon as possible, scan it, and send it back through secret channels.

After receiving this task, Li Li felt a little overwhelmed.

Because, even if she is in Penguin Company now, she is just a little Karami!

Want her to get the complete set of information about Huaxing Smart Car as soon as possible?

That's not realistic...

Her rank was so low that she had no access to any highly confidential information.

She tried her best to use her beauty to climb up the social ladder.

Unexpectedly, no boss dared to accept her sex-bomb bribe.

Because Penguin's monitoring is too strict.

You don't have enough talent, and if you want to get ahead by relying on your body, it's impossible!

Li Li was very anxious after receiving the task.

Because the time required for the task was too tight, she had to make up her mind to take a risk in order to complete the task!
Her so-called desperate move was actually just to try her luck at the Huaxing Group headquarters. What if she could be appreciated by Yu Chengdong?

If I could get Yu Chengdong's appreciation, I would be very rich.

Thinking this, Li Li asked for leave from her unit.

Then she boarded the flight to Chang'an.

Li Li has already made up her mind. She will apply for experience learning at Huaxing Automobile headquarters as an employee of Penguin Company, hoping to improve herself through learning.

Because, within Huaxing Group, there is a rule that all employees within the group can apply to other units for exchanges and learning.

Li Li decided to take advantage of this loophole.

However, she was not sure whether Huaxing Automobile would accept her if she rushed over on her own.

Li Li thought, it would be great if I could meet Yu Chengdong the first time I arrived at Huaxing Automobile.

Maybe, with my looks, I can capture him.

What does this mean?
This shows that many women have no self-awareness!

They think highly of themselves, but regard men as fools who can be played with at will. Or, they always think that rich men are sex-hungry ghosts who are hungry for sex and they can easily get a super rich man with just a flick of their fingers.

Just like that, Li Li got on the plane with all sorts of thoughts in her mind.

What she didn't expect was that her neighbor was a young man with red lips, white teeth, and a handsome appearance.

This man is so handsome.

Li Li felt that even Lu Yi was not as handsome as him!
Lu Yi was the most popular male star in China at that time, and he was also a handsome guy.

When Li Li saw this man, she liked him very much.

As I said before: In fact, women are more lustful than men! Women are almost immune to the best handsome men!
After Li Li sat down, her heart started beating wildly.

Later, during the journey, this extremely handsome guy was very gentle and elegant, and he actually took the initiative to talk a lot to Li Li.

Every gesture and movement of his was truly filled with infinite charm.

Sometimes Li Li couldn't help but want to rush over and kiss him.

The two chatted enthusiastically, and soon, they became affectionate.

Of course, during this period, Li Li was more proactive.

Especially when Li Li heard that the man was Zhang Zhipeng's cousin and currently worked in the public relations department of Huaxing Group, she became even more enthusiastic and tried her best to charm the man.

As for the man, he was always indifferent and maintained a calm attitude.

However, the man still accepted Li Li's attempt to throw herself into his arms.

Along the way, Li Li felt that she was extremely lucky... (End of this chapter)
