Chapter 55 World Uproar!
The official signing of the $54 billion flying car order has had a huge impact worldwide!
After the signing of the contract, Emerald Island and the five heads of state in the Middle East officially held a press conference at the newly built flying car manufacturing plant. All major media from the world were present and participated in the live broadcast of the event.
Within one year, the Emerald Isle will deliver a total of 600,000 shape-shifting flying cars to the five countries!
It can be said that this is a world-class contract!
In addition, the unit price of 900,000 dollars is enough to match the world-class super luxury car!
In this regard, the world's major media have also paid enough attention to this conference, and they have published reports and expert analysis of this event on the front page headlines.
"Heavy! Five countries including UAE, Saudi Arabia and Emerald Island have reached an order cooperation, and the world's first commercial flying car is about to be born!" - "The Sun"
"The commercial use of flying cars marks that human beings have officially entered the era of flying traffic!" - "The Wall Street Journal"
"Behind the $54 billion order, it shows Emerald Island's ambition and strong scientific research capabilities!" - "Asahi Shimbun"
In this way, under the attention of the world's major media, the news of this big order signing has been widely spread in the world at an extremely fast speed, and has had a far-reaching impact!
This impact is even comparable to the birth of the world's first airliner!
However, for ordinary people, what they are most concerned about is not the amount of this order, but the real use of flying cars and whether it can be as safe, stable and fast as in the Emerald Isle.
And this question was quickly answered.
On the third day after the press conference, three 12-ton giant freighters slowly left the port of Laputa, crossed the South China Sea all the way, and headed towards the Middle East.
On the freighter, it is full of 5,000 flying cars!
And this is also the sample delivered by Emerald Island in advance, which is used for a series of flight trials in the five Middle East countries and helps them formulate specific traffic guidelines.
What I have to sigh is that these local tyrants are not only rich, but also have executive power that is difficult for other countries to have. After the freighter just docked, these flying cars were delivered to the first batch of customers.
Of course, these customers are either rich or expensive, including princes from major royal families, as well as some national dignitaries and business leaders. In short, these flying cars have been snapped up before they landed.
Then, the next day, a series of photos showing off their wealth appeared on the Internet.
The princes of the major royal families have posted photos of themselves driving their newly acquired flying cars in the sky, and these photos have spread all over the world at an extremely fast speed, causing extensive discussions in the international community.
"Mama, the local tyrants in the Middle East are really rich. The unit price of a flying car is as high as 900,000 US dollars. To them, it is like a drizzle."
"Damn, I suddenly want to go to the Middle East to pick up junk, and by the way, I can also watch the air show of flying cars!"
"I'm so envious, when can I have a flying car?"
"What if you have it? Our country hasn't formulated relevant policies yet? Fuck it!"
"Hey...our country can't keep up with the heat even if we eat shit! Those worms in the country eat and drink faster than anyone else, but to formulate and implement relevant systems is like constipation, wait, it's not necessarily ten or eight years! "
"Yeah, it's been two hours since I got off work, and I'm still stuck in traffic! Imperial Capital, you're still so congested, when can we introduce flying cars in our country??"
"Agree upstairs, my second-tier cities are about to be blocked! I hope the country will speed up the pace of policy formulation and solve the problem of traffic congestion."
"agree!"
"+1"
"+2"
...
"+10086"
Obviously, the formal commercial use of flying cars will have an extremely far-reaching impact!
Traffic congestion has become a problem encountered by all cities in all countries in the world, and it is extremely difficult to solve. Whether it is expansion of roads, number restrictions, and various traffic controls, this problem cannot be solved.
As soon as the rush hour arrives, a beautiful landscape will appear in the city.
As for planning ahead and expanding roads, it will greatly waste the precious land of the city!
Because, the essence of the congestion problem is not the narrow roads, but the living pace of the urban population.
Everyone goes to work during work hours, gets off work during get off work hours, and rests during rest time. Therefore, traffic congestion has almost become an unavoidable problem.
However, the emergence of flying cars has allowed the world to see a once and for all solution.
The three-dimensionality of space is destined to be more spatial than the two-dimensionality of the ground, which also makes the passage of cars more flexible.
In the space, the possibility of two vehicles meeting head-on is almost zero, which means that the problem of traffic congestion will no longer exist. Of course, the premise is that there must be a series of matching spatial traffic rules.
Otherwise, the severity of the accident is unmatched by ground traffic.
Of course, as long as mature air control measures are in place, this problem is also easy to solve, which can be seen from the rare occurrence of passenger plane collisions in the world.
Presumably, countries also know this point. The only problem is that the management difficulty of the transportation departments of various countries has greatly increased. Therefore, this is also one of the main reasons why countries are currently hesitating whether to introduce flying cars.
And for a big country like China, it is even more so.
The population far exceeds the average size, which makes it extremely difficult to manage traffic. Therefore, although people in the country are petitioning the political axe, the upper levels are still closely watching.
However, as upper-level managers, they cannot completely ignore the voices of the people. Therefore, in the past few days, the national transportation authority has frequently held various seminars and consultations, and convened a group of domestic automobile production leaders. Let them have an opinion.
After all, the introduction of flying cars is not just about convenient transportation, but more importantly, it is a huge change in technology. In this change, whoever can seize the opportunity at the fastest speed means that they can catch up with the times The convenience car has taken the lead from now on.
And once this opportunity is missed, it will be abandoned by the times.
They know this very well, so even if they are observant about the introduction of flying cars, it does not prevent them from wanting to introduce this technology, because the birth of flying cars must be accompanied by many high-tech technologies, and the impact of these technologies, Even farther than flying cars!
Therefore, they do not want to miss this rare opportunity to overtake on a corner!
