Chapter 326: The First Experience of Flying for Office Workers
Zhao Jian works in a joint venture near the CBD, and the reason why he chose to buy a house in Yanjiao is simply to save some money.
The company clocks in at nine o'clock, he has to go out on time at half past seven every day, take a direct express bus of 38 yuan, after about an hour's drive, arrive at the station near the CBD, and then sweep a small bicycle, so that he basically arrives at the company more than ten minutes in advance every day.
But today Zhao Jian was a little unlucky, when he went out, he accidentally bumped into an old lady, and there was a little quarrel, and he finally solved the matter, and hurried to the station to run, but he still didn't catch the shuttle bus at about half past seven.
You know, this kind of express bus is generally about 20 minutes, if you miss this trip, you want to wait for the next trip at about 8 o'clock, so you will be late.
Zhao Jian's company has a good salary, but the attendance is also relatively strict, and if he is late for more than two times, basically this month's bonus will be in vain, which is a small 3,000 yuan, almost catching up with his half a month's mortgage!
Zhao Jian chased for a while, but he didn't catch up with the fast bus that was still in sight, he was in a hurry, he wanted to take a taxi, but it was so easy to get a taxi during this rush hour! After waiting for nearly ten minutes or so and still not getting a taxi, Zhao Jian was already desperate.
Thinking that because of this trivial matter, the bonus of 3,000 yuan would be wasted like this, Zhao Jian's heart hurt like a knife! It's not good to do something for 3,000 yuan, how much can you buy for your wife and children with some clothes and delicious food!
But no matter how distressed it is, the time of the fast bus is fixed, and he can't take a taxi, which means that he can only wait for eight o'clock, and it is already nine o'clock when he arrives at the CBD, and the bus station is still some distance from the company, riding a shared electric bicycle is the fastest way, and it takes twelve or three minutes, how to calculate the time is not enough!
Zhao Jian had already given up and walked towards the next express bus stop with his head down.
However, just when he was halfway there, he was surprised to find that a fenced construction site that he had seen before had actually removed the fence. When he saw the rows of flying cars exposed inside, his heart suddenly moved, and a bold idea came to him!
He looked at his watch, it was already 7:53 at the moment, even if he took the next express bus, it would definitely be late, so it was better to try the flying car!
Regarding the construction of a flying car parking airport nearby, he also found out during the chatting with the residents living in the community two days ago, but Zhao Jian didn't take this kind of thing that sounded like science fiction too seriously at first. In his world, let alone flying cars, even if it is a four-wheeled car running on the ground, it is 108,000 miles away from him.
Don't look at his current monthly income of more than 10,000 yuan, after deducting the mortgage and family expenses, there is basically no money left every month, even if it is the cheapest car, it will cost more than 10,000 yuan a year to maintain a car, not to mention that he has to run to the imperial capital every day, even if he buys a car, there is a more difficult lottery mark waiting for him. Besides, with the degree of traffic congestion in the imperial capital, it is estimated that it is useless to buy a car, and it will not bring any convenience to your travel.
Don't even dare to think about a car running on the ground, let alone a flying car that can fly into the sky? Zhao Jian is a very pragmatic person, and subconsciously he feels that this matter has nothing to do with him, it is high-tech, where can ordinary people have access to it?
But that's no longer the case. At this moment, this flying car, which seemed out of reach in Zhao Jian's eyes, had already intersected with his life! He wanted to salvage his 3,000 yuan full attendance award!
"I'm sorry~~I'm sorry, excuse me~~ Excuse me, may I ask, is this a new flying car of yours?"
Zhao Jian, who had just run over, was out of breath and said to Fang Qi, who was talking eloquently in front of the camera.
He could also see that the man in the overalls printed with the Sea King car looked like he was in charge here. At the moment, he was in a hurry to get to work, and he didn't care that the other party was being interviewed.
Fang Qi looked at the middle-aged man who suddenly ran over, and didn't blame him for disturbing the interview he was doing, but because the other party was asking about flying cars, he felt a little anticipation in his heart.
"That's right, these are the latest flying cars from our Neptunus Motors." Fang Qi smiled at this
A middle-aged man said.
"That~~ Is your car rented or sold?" Zhao Jian asked a little nervously.
Hearing his words, including Fang Qi, all the onlookers were happy.
Fang Qi laughed and said, "You haven't read our official website yet, these are shared cars, just like shared bicycles, you can use them by scanning the code."
Hearing Fang Qi's words, Zhao Jian's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked eagerly, "Really? So where can it go, and can I go to CBD if I want? How much does it cost?"
Fang Qi said with a smile: "Of course, the shared car here is flying CBD, and other stations will be opened in the future, the cost depends on how many people you take, if there is only one person, the one-way ticket price is 80 yuan, and if you are a double person, the more people you take, the lower the price of a single person, and you can ride together with up to four passengers."
"Only 80 bucks? Great, I'm going to sweep one, how do you get this?" Hearing Fang Qi's words, Zhao Jian was immediately overjoyed. He thought that such a high-tech thing would cost hundreds of dollars a single way, but he didn't expect it to be only 80 yuan! Although it is still a lot more expensive than Kuaibus, it is basically the same as taking a taxi. The most important thing is that you can save your 3,000 yuan bonus for 80 yuan, which is really cost-effective!
"By the way, how long does it take to get from here to CBD?" Zhao Jian, who was about to take out his mobile phone to scan the code, suddenly asked as if he remembered something.
If you take a express bus or taxi to the CBD, it will take at least an hour. It stands to reason that this flying car should definitely be faster than ground transportation, but after all, it is a new thing, Zhao Jian has never tried it, in case the time is about the same, then his money is not spent in vain?
Hearing Zhao Jian's question, Fang Qi quickly said: "This is 38 kilometers away from the CBD airport in a straight line, if you calculate from the take-off time, it will take about 8 minutes, depending on the weather conditions and air conditions, if everything is normal, the error will not exceed 30 seconds."
Hearing Fang Qi's words, not only Zhao Jian, but even the onlookers were all stunned!
8 minutes, from here to CBD, what is the concept?
Compared to traveling by express bus, the time is directly shortened to one-seventh of the original!
It's just too fast!
"Okay, okay, then I'll sweep one now!"
Zhao Jian said, took out his mobile phone and came to the nearest flying car, and scanned the QR code on it.
The next moment, a small program interface popped up on the phone.
Looking at the interface for filling in the information, Zhao Jian frowned and asked, "Is this complicated?"
If you still have to fill out the form for ten minutes, forget it.
Seeing Zhao Jian's hesitation, Fang Qi said with a smile: "It's not complicated at all, this information is mainly used to apply for compulsory insurance, and for each passenger, we will insure them with personal accident insurance of up to 6 million yuan."
While speaking, Fang Qi instructed Zhao Jian to fill in the personal information, and it was done in more than half a minute.
Zhao Jian took this small program and scanned the QR code on the flying car again, and this time, the door of the flying car slid open smoothly!
The curious crowd hurriedly gathered around, looking at each other and making a sound.
"It looks pretty advanced!"
"This interior is good, it smells of luxury PV!"
"Is this thing safe?"
"Why don't you try to take a ride?"
Listening to everyone's gossip, Zhao Jian, who was in a hurry to get into the car, hesitated at this moment.
This thing is going to fly into the sky!
Although a small amount of money of 3,000 yuan is very important, your own safety is even more important! This is a new product that has just come out, in case there is a failure, it is not as good as on the ground in the sky, and I still have a wife and children!
Fang Qi seemed to see Zhao Jian's hesitation, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, this product is very safe, we have flown hundreds of times during internal testing before, if you don't worry, let's sit together?" It just so happens that I'm going to the CBD side too
Look at the situation, if there are two people together, the ticket price can be lower."
Listening to Fang Qi's words and looking at his relaxed expression, Zhao Jian's worries suddenly decreased by more than half!
People have said so, what else do you have to be afraid of?
Gritting his teeth and stomping his feet, Zhao Jian lowered his head and sat in the driver's seat!
Seeing this scene, Qiu Mei, who was interviewing, suddenly asked a little anxiously, "Fang Gong, can we take the same car with you to experience it?"
Fang Qi smiled and said, "Of course, the four of us are exactly in a car, let's go."
Hearing his words, Qiu Mei was overjoyed. She just received a notice from the station, saying that the effect of this show is particularly good, and now the ratings have hit a new high of the year, and they are still rising, so she wants to continue to broadcast live! If Fang Qi is released at this time, there will be nothing to broadcast!
Qiu Mei greeted the camera brother, and the two of them sat in the back row, and after asking Fang Qi if he could shoot and broadcast live in the car, and got a positive answer, Qiu Mei immediately beckoned the camera brother to continue the live broadcast!
At the moment, her mood was both excited and nervous. Although it wasn't the first time she had flown on a plane, it was the first time she had flown in a flying car, and she was looking forward to the next experience!
"Click here, set your destination, and click Go." Fang Qi sat on the co-pilot and patiently guided.
The control logic of the flying car is very simple, even if you don't need to teach it, it is not difficult. Zhao Jian saw that the information of the four passengers on the screen had been displayed, and then set the flight destination and clicked "Go".
The next moment, he only felt a slight shock from the body under him, and before he could react, the ground in his field of vision was already rapidly moving away!
"It's really flying!" Sitting in the cabin, Zhao Jian couldn't help but let out an excited exclamation!
