Thirty minutes later, the convoy finally arrived at the Hilton Universal Los Angeles Hotel. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Info is located in the Hollywood Hills, a short walk from the Hollywood Walk of Fame and Studios.

Today, Wu Tao and Tao Wenwen will spend the night repairing here, and tomorrow they will rush to Silicon Valley in the San Francisco Bay Area.

As it was awards season, the hotel rooms were already full. The Ghost Messenger crew was given special care by the organizers this time, and the North American branch specially booked enough suites in advance.

Throw a brick here, and you can hit a star above the second line. It is difficult for a star with a slightly lower value to be eligible to participate in an award ceremony of such specifications.

Tao Wenwen looked around as she walked, if it weren't for Wu Tao's expression that had always been very serious, she would have run out and pulled the stars she recognized to sign and take a group photo.

Back in the suite, after Wu Tao and Tao Wenwen decided on tomorrow's itinerary and arrangements, they waved their hands and let each other leave.

Seeing this, Tao Wenwen shouted: "Long live Mr. Wu!" "Then I ran out in a puff of smoke, took my iPhone and looked around for celebrities to ask for a group photo and ask for an autograph."

Wu Tao was alone in the suite, opened the call program on his mobile phone and said, "Xixi, call Xixi." ”

Xi Xi quickly responded: "Master, what do you command?" ”

"Immediately collect Tesla's driverless technical data, especially the all-round information that led to the first few car crashes and fatalities. In addition, with regard to autonomous driving technology, we will find out which other manufacturers are actively involved in the development of autonomous driving technology. ”

"Yes, master."

While waiting for Xixi's feedback, Wu Tao called out Wangcaidao: "When I was scanning Tesla's latest car just now, did you find any abnormalities in its driverless technology?" ”

"According to my preliminary judgment, the driverless technology of this car should not be complete. At least in terms of the configuration structure of its sensors, it is lacking. As for the performance of the control chip and the reliability of the unmanned coding in it, further in-depth testing is needed to determine. ”

Wu Tao muttered: "The incomplete sensor information means that there must be a flaw in the unmanned driving technology. It seems that Tesla Motors, I am afraid, has not fundamentally solved the potential safety hazards when the car is driverless. ”

Soon, the news of artificial intelligence was fed back.

"Master, this is information about the accident of Tesla's first-generation driverless car. Vehicle damage is severe, and it is difficult to determine the root cause of its failure. And the latest Tesla cars, in terms of unmanned driving technology, the only improvement is the control chip and driving algorithm. ”

"In addition, well-known car brands Mercedes-Benz, BMW and other manufacturers have successively cooperated with Intel to jointly develop driverless technology with Mobileye on the basis of the control chip provided by the latter."

"In addition, Google is also continuing to tackle unmanned driving technology, and the current progress is slow, and no scientific and technological achievements have been achieved."

Seeing this, Wu Tao had an idea, and his inner thoughts suddenly changed. As soon as he came into contact with Tesla cars from the airport, his first idea was to establish an electric vehicle company along the high-energy battery industry line. With high-energy batteries, super control chips, and artificial intelligence systems as the foundation, the final electric car product surpasses Tesla, which is just a matter of course.

However, according to the information collected by Xixi, the cruel competition in this field in the future is almost foreseeable. Traditional automobile manufacturers, with their unique brand advantages, will have a great impact on emerging electric vehicle manufacturers.

Generally speaking, there are far more electric vehicle manufacturers in the world than Tesla Motors, at least in China, there are many government-funded electric vehicle manufacturers such as BYD.

However, the only one that has really achieved market profitability is Tesla Motors, which has just turned around.

The risks involved can be imagined, coupled with the introduction and improvement of the entire automobile production line, which will bring great uncertainty to the promotion of electric vehicles.

On the contrary, if Tianyu comes up with a complete unmanned driving technology and achieves direct and indirect profits by directly binding the sales of super control chips, not only the risk is controllable, but the profit scale is likely to exceed the direct sales of its own brand of electric vehicles.

Thinking of this, Wu Tao stood up and said: "Wangcai, let's go and see Tesla's unmanned driving technology together." ”

Calling Shang Yong and a few security guards, Wu Tao came to the garage, drove a Tesla, and left the hotel.

Half an hour later, the convoy came to a suitable section of the road. After Wu Tao got out of the car and observed, he told Fang Yong about his plan.

Hearing Wu Tao's plan, Fang Yong shook his head like a rattle and said, "Boss, are you crazy?" Today's driverless technology is far from reaching the point of maturity, and although Tesla is famous for its innovation, it has also had many accidents. As a lesson from the past, it's better not to try this function.

Wu Tao insisted: "Fang Yong, it is precisely because I suspect that Tesla's driverless technology is still flawed, so I must try it." Tesla's products are selling so well, if such hidden dangers are not exposed in time, there will be people who cause the tragedy of car destruction and death. ”

"That's not going to work either!" Fang Yong said categorically: "As the captain of security, I can't watch you get into danger. The only possibility is that I will test you out. ”

Wu Tao secretly communicated with Wangcai, and then said helplessly: "Okay, just according to what you say." ”

will test the process of unmanned driving, and Fang Yong made a detailed explanation. Then Fang Yong sat in the driver's seat with a righteous and awe-inspiring face, and said with the tragic feeling that the strong man would never return: "Boss, in case I have a three-long and two-short, please take care of my sister." ”

"you, you can't think of something good?"

"You have to promise me, boss."

"Okay, I promise you."

Although Wu Tao himself did not get into the car, Wangcai was in the car, and at the same time hacked the on-board control chip to monitor the performance of its unmanned driving function. In this way, it is conducive to discovering its hidden dangers, and secondly, at the critical moment, it can ensure Fang Yong's safety.

Just as the test was about to begin, Wu Tao's mobile phone suddenly rang.

When I heard it, it was Tao Wenwen's anxious voice.

"Boss, no. Intel just called and said they weren't willing to accept a one-time buyout of the technology we offered. The other party's attitude was a little negative, saying that only the model of sharing according to the sales volume of chips would consider continuing the cooperation between the two sides. ”

Wu Tao couldn't help laughing, "It's okay, it depends on their cooperation method, but the proportion of monolithic commission should be higher." Play this trick with me, and I'll make them pay!" ”
