Chapter 400 398, Utopian ideas, “racing” on the sea (4K)

After finishing this matter, Gao Haitao talked to Lin Chu and told him that perhaps he could wait for the possible call.

Hearing what he did, Lin Chu immediately approved and praised him for doing a good job.

I have to say that Lao Gao’s way of handling the matter was perfect, calm and benevolent.

However, workplace relationships that are too personal can easily lead to collusion of interests.

But workplace relationships without human touch are short-lived.

After all, Ma Teng is one of the founders of the security company and has made contributions to the company.

Even though he has made a mistake now, Gao Haitao has done his best. If he still does not repent, there is no need to save the situation.

As for regulating this matter from an institutional perspective, Lin Chu is already preparing to push forward with it.

But this matter really requires a suitable opportunity and a sufficiently suitable entry point.

……

After dealing with this matter, Lin Chu inspected the entire process of low-altitude aircraft support in the next few days.

From universities to laboratories to factories…

During these two years, we have created a complete model from scratch, either by purchasing, investing in, or developing on our own.

The current R&D progress, according to their internal control standards, is 91%.

The 9 percent difference is mainly reflected in the obstacle avoidance algorithm and high energy density battery.

The former requires more data feeding and better intelligent algorithms.

The latter requires revolutionary advances in basic science and technology.

The former is related to safety performance and can be improved through more simulation experiments.

The latter can be purchased. There are already excellent battery suppliers in China and the channels have already been opened.

In fact, strictly speaking, their own low-altitude aircraft products have already taken shape, and they have also conducted internal test flights, which were very successful.

But it’s still not 100% perfect.

The products we have now can only be considered as genuine products. Although there are many small highlights, they can still be considered to be on par with various manufacturers in the same field.

However, there is still some distance to go before we can achieve the “epoch-making product” announced by Lin Chu.

Lin Chu also has a clear understanding of this matter.

Now, the timing for the product to be launched on the market is still not mature, not only because of the product itself, but also because of the control of the entire transportation system and the opening of low-altitude permissions.

Just imagine……

The low-altitude aircraft in the sky, like today’s cars, fly in all directions on the ground…

It is definitely convenient. You can fly wherever you want without the trouble of traffic jams.

But behind the scenes, there needs to be a set of very complete and strict laws and air traffic regulations to support it, otherwise there will be chaos in the world.

This system has not yet been codified in any country in the world, but LC is qualified to be a participant, contribute its own data accumulation and provide corresponding suggestions.

But it will take longer to fully implement it.

In fact, when Lin Chu occasionally imagines the scene of the sky filled with flying cars, he feels a little bit of longing in his heart.

That is the future that humans can already foresee.

And I am one of the participants and creators of this future.

As for how much contribution it made, future generations and history will have to judge.

Of course, Lin Chu also knew that there were too many awesome people in this world. Even if he had money, connections, and had done so many things, he might not be the final winner in this race, and might not even be the winner.

Which awesome company didn’t emerge from a sea of ​​blood and corpses?
But it’s okay.

Success does not have to be mine.

Besides, he also had alternative plans. LC Investment’s tentacles had already been waving checkbooks all over the world, buying things everywhere.

Whether it is a traditional industry or an emerging industry, as long as there may be value, just invest in it first.

When capital develops to this level, it becomes a completely different game.

……

“Are you really planning on helping Misha build a city?”

During dinner in the evening, Rashid asked with great interest. Misha was not there, but she had obviously heard the news.

To be fair, this incident did cause a sensation within the royal family.

However, to some extent, they are a perfect match.

Misha’s branch is not the main branch of the heirs, and it is not even their turn in the queue. In the eyes of the interested creatures, it is naturally a good choice for marriage.

As for Rashid, he doesn’t care about these things at all. He is very relaxed and playful. On one side is his good friend, and on the other side is his sister. He doesn’t care how they develop, as long as he is happy.

“Haha, you really take a man’s sweet words seriously?”

Lin Chu casually complained with a smile.

Rashid shrugged. “Well, I just think it’s fun. In fact, the new city of Dubai was also built from scratch. This is a feat of the previous generation. Didn’t you also build a magnificent city in your country? I think it will be a fun thing…”

“If we are going to build one, we will build a city of the future. It will be designed with three floors: one floor on the ground, the second floor in the air, and the third floor in the sky… We will build the entire city into a huge amusement park. We can even set the rules for the aircraft ourselves.”

“Of course, if you want to introduce more variables, then add civilians, businessmen, and people like us.”

“This is not only a scientific experiment, but also a sociological experiment… If you think about it, it feels very utopian.”

Rashid talked freely.

Dubai is not enough for him to play anymore, and neither are most places in the world. He still wants to play somewhere bigger… Although we’re just chatting now, that’s what I mean.

Lin Chu licked his lips and looked at him with a slightly frown.

Cyber ​​City?

What a crazy idea.

But why am I feeling a little moved?

Looking at it from another perspective, according to the existing urban planning, if we want to accumulate enough low-altitude aircraft experimental samples, it must be compatible with the existing transportation system.

And this compatibility process is bound to have bugs, it is impossible to have none.

If it is possible to build a city from scratch, following a completely intelligent plan from the beginning, with aircraft flying in the sky, cars running on the ground, yachts in the water… all seamlessly connected from the beginning of the design, then such an attempt, even if it fails, will probably become a “holy land” for the entire low-altitude flight industry.

A man-made wonder.

“You can try to do it. I will attract investment for you. I will definitely give you as much money as you want.”

Lin Chu looked at him and said with a hint of sarcasm.

This plan is too big.

It also has a very futuristic feel, and has a strong impact on both society and business, but the imagination is also unlimited.

In fact, humans have been transforming the earth.

From steam to electricity, from cattle and horses to cars and airplanes, from thatched huts to high-rise buildings…from the perspective of a person’s long river of time, one may not feel anything at all due to the subtle changes.

Take myself as an example. When I was a child, I had no idea what mobile phones and cars were. I just saw them from rich people.

And now…I have become someone who can create the wind.

It is an honor and a responsibility.

The values ​​and aesthetic orientation, as well as the level of ability of the elite group, will naturally guide the development path of the entire ethnic group.

After the same 30 years of development, in some places, the shitholes are still shitholes, but in other places, they have been transformed and are changing with each passing day.

“Hey, I just said it casually. If you don’t do it, I definitely won’t do it.”

Rashid waved his hand and smiled playfully. As a noble prince, there was no way he could personally work hard for such a thing. He just wanted to be responsible and enjoy himself.

Lin Chu glared at him, feeling a little amused.

What the hell are you talking about if you don’t want to work?

I don’t want to do it either.

“Well, we can start from my small islands…”

Lin Chu’s heart moved and he uttered a few words slowly.

On several islands, the construction of infrastructure has already been completed, leaving large blank areas.

The waterways between islands are not far away and are very suitable for low-altitude aircraft operations.

At the same time, in terms of geographical location, although the island is rented by themselves and does not belong to the country, there is almost no security issue as it is within the coverage of the guns of justice.

The only risks to consider are hurricanes, high waves, and island subsidence.

However, this kind of engineering problem is actually not very big. Compared with the trouble of doing this elsewhere, it is the smallest.

“Okay!”

“I approve with both hands!”

Rashid didn’t expect Lin Chu’s tone to change suddenly, and he immediately became interested again.

Lin Chu glared at him, then waved his hand with a smile.

……

a few days later.

The first batch of twelve low-altitude aircraft used for experiments have returned to Daber Island with Lin Chu.

The 1.0 version of the product developed by LC Group looks similar to a car, has 6 seats, and is powered by a hybrid rotor. It can reach a maximum speed of 300 kilometers per hour and a maximum range of 420 kilometers. It can be driven manually and has intelligent assistance throughout the journey.

This time, Lin Chu came with a luxurious and large team, including various researchers, engineers, intelligent control personnel, security personnel, representatives of the design and construction parties… and so on.

It was a pretty crazy decision for everyone, but it was also very exciting.

Build a city of the future!
Although the building density and conditions on the island are now similar to those of a small town, it is still a valuable experimental site.

Besides…the boss is willing to invest money.

I would rather share my private island.

on site.

On the blue sea, Lin Chu sat in the driver’s seat and opened the window. The blue aircraft maintained an altitude of nearly thirty meters and was already speeding.

It’s a completely different experience.

Apart from the sound of the wind, there is almost no other resistance, as if it can break through the limit speed and bring a thrill of being out of control.

But the pedals under your feet and the round rudder in your hands also give you a sense of control and security.

After flying around, the speed slowly decreased and it landed smoothly. A crowd quickly approached. Lin Chu lowered the window and shouted with a smile: “Come on, some people, fly with me, let’s go for a spin.”

crowd:……

There is naturally no problem with racing.

There is no obstacle in this vast space, so you can just drive freely.

Even if something goes wrong, even if the aircraft falls into the sea, there will be an underwater airbag device. When the airbag explodes, it will instantly turn into a water device. Although the power system can no longer be used, it will never sink.

This is one of the biggest highlights of our own aircraft products.

Amphibious on land, sea and air.

After hearing Lin Chu’s words, several people followed him up. In the sky, several aircraft suddenly started to soar, leaving behind a series of speeding tails.

The obstacle avoidance system is of the highest level, and there is no need to worry about a “crash” at all. When a collision is likely to occur, the system will automatically intervene.

In the intercom system.

Lin Chu laughed and shouted, “Come on! Drive to the sky! Let’s see who vomits first!”

The central control screen currently displays four aircrafts around, namely Wang Zhefei, Hu Ping’an, Rashid, and Misha.

The current scene, between heaven and earth, above the sea, is like a large amusement park. Lin Chu feels that his childishness, which has been dormant for a long time, has been aroused.

This thing…

Although it doesn’t fly as high as an airplane, nor does it have as much lethality as a missile, in terms of practicality, it is likely to be surpassed by a helicopter…

But to be honest, the driving experience is really great.

Achieve a perfect balance between speed, flight and human control.

It is the joy of technology that ordinary people can experience, and it is also the field closest to flying.

“Go! I’m not afraid of you! Whoever brakes first is a dog!”

“I’m going to do a Cobra maneuver in the air!”

“I’ve never flown a fighter jet before, but this thing is so easy to use!”

Wang Zhefei shouted loudly, even opening the video chat system and giving a middle finger.

Just two words – exciting!

What kind of amusement park can produce such an effect?
Misha smiled helplessly and said, “The normal flight altitude of this aircraft is less than one thousand meters, and the maximum flight altitude can reach four thousand meters… Flying upwards is not fun, but you can experience the return trip.”

As one of the designers, she is naturally very clear about the various performance parameters.

That’s the extent of it at best.

The higher you fly, the higher the risk factor, and it must be compatible with the current mainstream urban airspace system.

“Brother Chu, that’s not right. This thing has a bug! If this thing is equipped with hot weapons, it will be like a high-speed moving gunpowder barrel. I can’t imagine how many people will die in the future. So many people die in traffic accidents every year. A group of road killers will create a group of airspace killers. Hiss… F*ck!”

This was the first time Hu Ping’an experienced this thing, and his perspective was still that of an ordinary person. After imagining the scene, he felt a little dry in the mouth and sweated all over.

“This is not something you should worry about… So the mainstream idea of ​​low-altitude aircraft is to use public transportation first. You have to go through security checks before getting on the train, just like airplanes and subways.”

“As for this thing now, we are all internal test players, just play your game first and don’t worry about it!”

Lin Chu shouted with a smile.

There will definitely be problems, including technical problems as well as legal and regulatory problems. These are inevitable, but there are always ways to solve them.

Anything new must advance through twists and turns.
