Chapter 1024: The ever-changing city of Koro
Returning to the beautiful island of Koro, the scenery here is a little more sci-fi than half a month ago. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
After getting off the plane, on the way out of the airport, Jiang Chen noticed several hovercars whizzing past the six-lane road not far from the airport. Foreigners who have just come to this place have exclaimed in surprise and taken out their mobile phones and digital cameras to take pictures, while the locals are accustomed to it and calmly face all this.
This calmness is reflected not only in the flying cars, but also in the foreigners who are surprised.
The business of taxis parked in front of the airport was particularly brisk, and they were among the first to switch to maglev cars. In order to experience this novel means of transportation, many international friends even took the initiative to propose a long detour to the driver, and only then turned to the ordinary road to go to the hotel after running the whole road of maglev highway.
Jiang Chen was also slightly surprised by the changes in Koro Island, but his surprise was quite limited. After all, he had brought the technology from the Sixth Block, and he wasn't too surprised by the novelty of the vehicle itself.
It's just that seeing these things that will only exist in the future in this world makes him feel a little emotional for a while, and the changes of this era are too fast.
Walking into the parking lot outside the airport, Jiang Chen bypassed the taxi stop area surrounded by foreigners and walked straight to the corner of the parking lot. There was a red sedan parked there, and a beautiful and familiar figure stood at the door. The noble and cold temperament and the aura that no one should enter, blocked all the men who had the idea of accosting themselves from ten meters away.
However, when she saw Jiang Chen, her expression suddenly melted like ice and snow, and a smile bloomed.
"You're finally back. How's it going, have fun in Moscow? ”
"What do you mean by playing, I have something to do, okay?" Jiang Chen rolled his eyes and said.
"I heard you went for a walk outside the border?"
"Well, that's a special case." Jiang Chen didn't meet the sharp gaze, and laughed and confused this matter.
Fortunately, Xia Shiyu didn't ask, he hadn't thought about how to confess Natasha to her yet.
opened the trunk for Jiang Chen, Xia Shiyu watched him put the suitcase in, smiled slightly and invited him into the co-pilot's position, leaving Aisha alone in the back seat, sitting in the driver's seat by herself, and starting the car on the road.
Watching the ground outside the window gradually move away, Jiang Chen's hand involuntarily grabbed the armrest next to the car door, and his facial muscles were tense, almost white.
Looking at Jiang Chen's nervous appearance, Xia Shiyu, who was holding the steering wheel, couldn't help but sneer and skillfully entered the acceleration lane. When the speed of the car reached its maximum, it also rose to the top of the track, reached out and clicked on the automatic cruise mode, and her hand was off the steering wheel.
Aisha looked around curiously, although she had heard Jiang Chen talk about the future, it was the first time she had seen this novel means of transportation with her own eyes.
"Look at what scares you, I also rely on my strength to rely on the new maglev car driver's license, okay?" Xia Shiyu glanced at Jiang Chen, shook the driver's license in his hand ostentatiously, and then threw it into the shelf under the car platform.
"Your new car?"
Jiang Chen diverted the topic, in fact, he was not afraid of the maglev car, but because it was a female driver sitting in the driver's seat.
"Of course, the maglev car will only be available in the middle of this month. The model of this car is called Rourka EML-A1, and EML is an abbreviation for magnetic levitation. What do you think? Do you like it? Xia Shiyu bent the corners of her mouth and said.
"The shape is pretty good, I'll buy one another day."
The hand holding the car door finally let go, and Jiang Chen gave a pertinent evaluation.
In automatic cruise mode, the car reached a terrifying speed of one hundred and fifty kilometers per hour. The scenery outside the window recedes like a shuttle, and it's hard to imagine that this is in the heart of the city. After leaving the city, Xia Shiyu ended the automatic cruise, drove the car into the buffer lane, slowed down and slowly lowered the altitude.
The wheels touched the road lightly, the body sank by inertia, and Jiang Chen's hanging heart was completely relaxed. He knows that at the moment he's. The Rourka EML under the ground is finally back on the surface.
"The Q1'19 earnings report is out." Skillfully switched to the road driving mode, Xia Shiyu said casually.
"Oh."
"Don't you wonder which department has the most eye-catching financial reports?" Xia Shiyu glanced at him curiously.
"Do you still need to guess? The first is the future of science and technology, and the second is the future of heavy industry. Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile.
Since the establishment of the new Fed, he has become less and less sensitive to the long list of astronomical figures in the earnings report. Especially after the news that the Singapore dollar was used as the only settlement currency for space trade last time to roll up $943.1 billion in the foreign exchange market, now for the Future People Group, no amount of money is just a number.
Of course, this is not to say that the money is useless, but the goal of his struggle is no longer just those few bills. The lunar colony has only begun to turn a profit this year, and the rate of return is less than one-tenth of the future technology virtual reality project, but he is willing to burn money on the lunar colonization project.
"On the contrary, the future people of heavy industry first, the future of science and technology second." Xia Shiyu bent the corners of her mouth proudly.
"Oh? Can you make more money than the Internet in business? Wait a minute...... I seem to know why. A hint of interest appeared on Jiang Chen's face, but it quickly turned into a suddenness.
After Transwarp promulgated the "2019 Transwarp Trade Outer Space Resources Development Plan", nine asteroids were contracted to many countries for mining, which gave birth to a large number of foreign-funded enterprises to invest in Transwarp, and orders for external space stations from Future Human Heavy Industries were even more snowflakes.
The price of a space station is between one billion and ten billion US dollars, although there are now many space station customization companies in Silicon Valley in the United States, Cambridge in the United Kingdom, Singapore in Asia and other places, but neither the quality nor the reputation can be compared with the future of the heavy industry, can only pick up the future of the heavy industry to eat the leftover soup to drink.
The huge profits of the production space station, Jiang Chen forgot about it. Not to mention that it is surpassing Future People Technology, I am afraid of this quarter's financial report, and Future People Heavy Industry has to get rid of Future People Technology, which has been the leader of performance for several years.
"By the way, there's another thing, someone from Huaguo."
"Let me guess, I'm here to ask about weapons in outer space?"
"You guessed wrong again," Xia Shiyu blinked, this playful action had a contrasting and cute feeling on her, "It's the Minister of Transportation of Huaguo, and the CEO of Huaguo FAW." ”
"Oh? Are they interested in maglev cars? An interested expression appeared on Jiang Chen's face.
"When they heard about the concept of maglev vehicles and three-dimensional highway transportation," Xia Shiyu curled the corners of her mouth, "especially after learning that maglev vehicles can effectively alleviate the problem of urban traffic congestion." (To be continued.) )
