Warship of Great Power

Chapter 1240 Traffic Accident

The number of cars in the United States is quite high. Everyone must have a driver's license after reaching the legal age, just like an ID card. After all, most people here live in scattered places. Even if you want to go to the supermarket, you can't just walk. To go there, you have to drive, which often takes half an hour. A car is like two legs of a person, indispensable.

This is considered by many to be a sign of American civilized society. In fact, it is just because there are few people and insufficient supporting resources. There is nothing to be proud of at all.

But Gao Qin likes it. She feels that the United States is the most developed country. After all, when she was in elementary school, when she heard that the parents of her classmates were working abroad, she was very envious. Moreover, they often showed off the things they brought back from abroad. For advanced things, I once brought back a calculator with many buttons on it that can perform various functions. My classmates also used it to play games.

I also want to study hard and strive to go abroad in the future!

Such a mark was left in Gao Qin's young mind.

Now, she finally came to the United States and had the opportunity to get a green card while still in school. She was very happy and drove her Golden Sun electric car all the way.

Suddenly, a dog jumped out of the intersection ahead and crossed the road. When she saw it, she wanted to quickly lift her foot and step on the brake. However, before she could step on it, the car started to brake automatically!

A sharp brake sound sounded, and Gao Qin felt his body jump forward, and then was tightly restrained by the seat belt.

This car can actually brake on its own?

At this moment, Gao Qin was shocked. She had just heard that this car had the ability to drive intelligently, but she didn't know how smart it was. She didn't expect that this car could actually brake on its own. It was so advanced! It was so advanced!

The dog was also startled and ran away quickly, and the car began to automatically resume its previous speed.

Gao Qin looked at the screen beside him. Various information was displayed on it, all with Chinese interfaces. It should be a version sold only in the East.

"Yes, this car is okay, but when I decipher the Beidou navigation information, I can develop a more advanced electric car! This intelligent driving technology will also be used in American cars, and it can be used in all kinds of cars , hum, this is not a patent for electric cars.”

Although her butt is crooked, Gao Qin is still very strong in the technical field. She can see the key to technology at a glance.

When many people talk about electric vehicles, they will talk about the automatic driving function of electric vehicles. In fact, what is automatic driving? Isn't it just the accelerator, steering wheel and brake? Electric vehicles can drive automatically, and gasoline vehicles still have this function. Just replace the brake with an electric brake.

But is this really any good? In later generations, there is a so-called cruise control that cannot be canceled and keeps driving at high speed on the highway. In fact, if the brake is a hydraulic brake with engine vacuum assist, you can completely depress the brake pedal and let the brake system compete with the engine system, directly turning the engine off. Suppress the fire, and the car will naturally stop under the influence of the brakes.

If the brake pedal is just an electrical signal, then nothing can be done. If the on-board computer crashes, the car will be completely out of control.

The car stopped downstairs in the dormitory. When Gao Qin returned to the dormitory, a familiar beep sounded from the computer. When she turned on the computer, it was her father's video connection request again.

"Dad, what's wrong? Aren't you at work?"

"I just want to see what you are doing. It's so late. You're a girl. You can't go out and run around. It's not safe in the United States."

Looking at the concerned eyes, Gao Qin only felt a little disgusted: "Dad, I am already an adult. Even if I go out at night and go to a bar to dance, that is my freedom. It is very safe here and there are no gangsters." I think it’s so unbearable, it’s all deliberate propaganda by the media, it’s great here!”

"Okay, it's good that Dad knows you are in the dormitory. You study hard there. When you finish your studies, you will return to China and use the knowledge you have learned to continue to build our motherland. Dad is proud of you!"

"Okay, I understand. Dad, are you okay? If not, I'll just hang up. I still have to study."

"Well, then you learn. When you are outside, you should never forget that you are a descendant of the Yanhuang people..." Before he could finish speaking, Gao Qin pressed the close button.

Old stubborn, what age are you in? Humph, you have been brainwashed since you were a child, but I have not. The world is so big and everyone is free!

With this thought, Gao Qin returned to bed. At this moment, someone from the same dormitory walked in. He was a tall black man with his hair combed into pigtails. Ever since Gao Qin became roommates with her, I had never seen her disassembled and washed, and there was a special smell there. However, Gao Qin did not dare to say anything. This black girl was on the school boxing team and could beat men to the ground.

"Gao, that beautiful car outside belongs to you?"

"Um."

"Give me the car keys!"

"This..." Gao Qin hesitated for a moment. If the car keys were given to this black man, she would probably occupy them in the future, and Gao Qin would not be able to get them back.

"This car is not mine."

"I know, wasn't it just Rambo who gave it to you?"

"Well, wherever you want to go, I'll drive you."

"Okay." The female black man nodded: "Let's go to the nearby Hook Bar and relax for a night. Gao, you should have gone to enjoy the nightlife with us long ago."

When she got off the dormitory building, Gao Qin discovered that there were two people waiting next to the car. When she pressed the remote control key, several people got in, talking, laughing, smoking and spitting. It was very disgusting at first sight, but , Gao Qin didn't dare to say anything, he could only drive the car, wait for these people to be sent to the bar, and then come back!

The car got on the road again and sped forward. With the experience just now, Gao Qin also had full trust in the car. He could stop a dog suddenly jumping out in front. He was so smart, there was nothing to worry about.

It’s better to send these people away quickly! Let them go to the bar and have fun!

At this time, Gao Qin didn't know that this time he was really sent to heaven, but he was just sent to the west.

A bridge appeared ahead.

The Los Angeles River flows through the entire city of Los Angeles. The entire city is nourished by this river. Silicon Valley needs a lot of fresh water, which is also obtained from the Los Angeles River. At the same time, for the development of the city, there are many bridges on the river, making travel very convenient.

The Golden Sun electric car drives towards the bridge. When it reaches the bridge, there are guardrails made of concrete on both sides, which are very strong. Only the approach distance from the land to the bridge uses ordinary wooden guardrails, which have gone through history. Over time, the wood has become mottled.

Suddenly, the scenery on both sides retreated faster!

Gao Qin didn't think anything was wrong. She thought it was her imagination, but several people in the car cheered.

"Gao, this is driving!" the female black man said excitedly, and then looked at the big screen.

This electric car is different from ordinary cars. There are no instruments under the steering wheel. There is only a large screen in the center, so the co-pilot can also see it.

I saw that the numbers above were increasing rapidly.

Originally it was only fifty, but when the big guy felt it, it was already eighty, and when the black man shouted, it was already one hundred and two!

Instead, this number is still rising crazily, one hundred and five, one hundred and eighty!

The electric motor has its own characteristics: high torque, so an ordinary electric car can easily beat the starting performance of a sports car. However, electric motorcycles also have shortcomings. Generally, electric cars do not have a gearbox. The electric motor directly drives the motor through a reduction gear. This means that it is impossible to always find the optimal engine speed range by shifting gears, and to increase the top speed by shifting gears, like a gasoline car.

The top speed of electric vehicles is generally not high. After all, to take into account the starting performance, the reduction gear ratio cannot be too small, and this will obviously affect the top speed performance of electric vehicles. The maximum speed of the electric motor is only 10,000 rpm. Te also only increased the speed to 19,000, which is almost the limit.

Therefore, in order to meet the needs of use under different working conditions, some electric vehicle companies have also begun to play with gearboxes. Initially, they were two-speed gearboxes, which added high and low speeds. Later, many even had four-speed gearboxes. However, this went back to .

In the beginning, electric vehicles were built to avoid various technical patents on internal combustion engines, especially those on automatic transmissions. Now, in pursuit of performance, they are equipped with a transmission?

Of course Golden Sun Electric Vehicle Company will not do this. They are engaged in motors and are the strongest in this field. Therefore, on this Golden Sun Electric Vehicle, they are specially equipped with a maximum speed of 25,000 rpm. High-speed motor, the maximum speed can exceed 300 kilometers per hour.

In fact, the maximum speed is of no use. Apart from racing on the track, there are no ordinary roads for it to use. It is like some people who can't afford a luxury car and feel unhappy, so they say sourly: What's so great about a luxury car? No matter how big the engine is, If you're not the fastest, you can only run 120 seconds?

It is true that the fastest car can only go so far. However, luxury cars start quickly and pick up speed quickly, making it easy to overtake. Those small-displacement self-priming engines have to slow down to speed up, while large-displacement luxury cars only need to step on the accelerator. things.

This is especially true for electric cars. If you want to speed up, you just need to press the switch.

It only took two or three seconds to accelerate from 50 to 180. The sunspots in the car felt the surge of adrenaline and cheered one after another. They liked this feeling of speed. If the lid above their heads could be opened, Even better! A convertible is cool enough.

"No!"

Gao Qin let out an exclamation. Her foot had stepped on the brake, but the car showed no intention of stopping and continued to speed up. She had never driven so fast before and she couldn't control the car at all!

The next second, the car started to turn.

Gao Qin was even more frightened. She clearly didn't turn the steering wheel, but the car left its original track!

At this moment, other people in the car also realized that something was wrong and started shouting in horror.

"No!"

Boom!

The front of the car hit the wooden guardrail, and then drew a graceful curve in the sky, as if it was taking off.

Can cars fly?

Of course not!

The arc began to curve downward, taking on the shape of a parabola due to air resistance, and then, poof!

The car fell into the water!

"Quick, open the door quickly!"

While shouting, the female black man used her hands to pull the door armrest and push it outward, but the door did not move at all!

Once it enters the water, the car door cannot be opened. Because of the external water pressure, the car door cannot be opened at all. Even if it only sinks ten meters, the external water pressure is equivalent to one atmospheric pressure!

"Drive the window, drive the window!" Heizi from behind shouted.

If the car door cannot be opened, then open the window. As long as the outside water flows in and the internal and external pressures are balanced, they can climb out of the car window without opening the door.

Different races have different sports that they are good at. Heizi are good at running. In marathons and the like, they almost always come first. However, heisi are not good at swimming. This is determined by body density and other reasons.

However, you have to swim even if you are not good at it. If you stay in the car, you will be waiting for death!

So, the gangsters pressed the window lift button again, but no matter how hard they pressed, the window would not move.

Gao Qin looked at the display on the screen and suddenly understood something. It was like falling into an ice cave, her body was shaking, her face was pale, and sweat was pouring out. She knew that her life was about to end here.

The sudden acceleration, swerving, falling into the river, and closing the car doors and windows were all done intentionally by the other party! Just after the car took off, a line of words briefly appeared on the screen: Remote control data is being deleted.

Although it only flashed by, she, who had been learning square characters since she was a child, could see it clearly.

All of this is remotely operated by the outside world!

This is a highly intelligent vehicle. Everything in the car is controlled by a computer, and the system can also be upgraded remotely. Naturally, it can also be controlled remotely.

Who did it?

It's not Lambo and the others. After all, if they want to use themselves, it can only be done by the developers of this kind of car. Only they have the ability to remotely control. In other words, they are...

Boom, boom, boom! Someone was already smashing the glass. Gao Qin reacted and quickly smashed the glass with his own hands, shouting in despair.

"No, no, I was wrong, I was wrong, you can't do this..."

For traitors and traitors, they will never wake up. Even if they admit their mistakes, they will have no choice but to admit their mistakes just to reduce the punishment they were sentenced to. But now, no matter how much Gao Qin shouts, no one hears him.

River water will isolate all electromagnetic waves.

At the same time, a certain villa.

"What's going on? We monitored that the car fell into the river!"

"Quick, report to Mr. Turano immediately!"

"Quickly, call for rescue immediately and get that car out. God, I hope they are still alive."

A few minutes later, sirens roared, police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, and various vehicles drove towards the river, and even helicopters took off. This was definitely their most efficient dispatch!

However, it was night time after all, and rescue was not convenient. The car was not salvaged until midnight. At this time, three hours had passed since the car fell into the river. There was no way anyone was alive inside, and they would have died of suffocation if they didn't fall to death.

Looking at the salvaged car, Turano's face was full of gloom.

"Except for Gao Qin, Alice, her roommate in the dormitory, and two of Alice's friends are all dead." There was no trace of grief on Rambo's face, as if the two had never been in love. Same.

"cause of death?"

"We won't know until after the autopsy, but from visual inspection, it should be water in the alveoli."

People have to breathe. If there is no air, then they will breathe sea water. Although they did not smash the car doors and glass, the car is not completely sealed. There will always be river water getting in through various gaps, especially the air inlet of the air conditioner. , and eventually the car will be filled with water, and people will naturally drown in it, with their lungs filled with water.

"Cause of the accident?"

"Driving too fast, he hit the guardrail and fell into the river."

"Is it because Gao Qin can't drive?"

"have no idea."

The cause of the accident can only be analyzed here. The speed of the car was too fast. As for why the speed of the car was too fast, there are various circumstances.

Did the driver drink or even take something that made him high that day? Or was there a mechanical failure in the car, or was the driver unfamiliar with the vehicle's performance?

Electric cars are so powerful that if you push the switch to the bottom, the car may fly up. Therefore, if you have never driven an electric car and get started rashly, you may not be able to handle it.

Gao Qin just took over this electric car. It is possible that the vehicle lost control due to unfamiliarity. However, the people present were all experienced people, and they would never think so simply.

Gao Qin had just accepted their mission to decipher the Beidou navigation system for them. At this juncture, something happened to Gao Qin. Who did it?

"Is there already an spy from Dongfang among us?"

"This really needs to be investigated carefully. It may be due to personnel or technical means. Our villa may no longer be safe. We should find another place to work."

The personnel need to conduct a thorough investigation, and at the same time, they must also pay attention to technology. After all, Dongfang's electronic technology is too advanced. Maybe they have quietly entered their own network and stolen relevant information?

Anyway, I’ll be busy next time.

"However, on the surface, this is just an ordinary traffic accident. I'm afraid we can't use it as an excuse, let alone retaliate." Rambo said.

They were about to get the secrets of the Beidou navigation system, but they missed it because of Gao Qin's death. What should they do? Do you just admit it?

"Yeah, we can't retaliate against them, but even if it's a traffic accident, we can still make a fuss about it. Dongfang's Golden Sun electric cars are unsafe, especially since they are also vigorously developing intelligent driving technology. These are extremely unsafe. of!"

Since we can’t do anything else, we can only use this opportunity to discredit Dongfang Electric Vehicle.

“Well, OK, let’s arrange it immediately.”

Rambo is not the college student he appears to be. He is also an important intelligence officer and an academic spy talent. Now, it is easy for him to discredit Golden Sun Electric Vehicle.
