How should I proceed now?
After the authentication was completed, an older man from the polar bear village asked again.
"Cloud chariot has two driving modes, one is manual driving, the other is automatic intelligent driving. Since Mr. Tuo Hai has not yet undergone training for manual operation, he can directly start the intelligent driving mode."
In the face of the inquiry, the guard did not keep any secrets and replied slowly according to the rules arranged in advance.
"Intelligent driving?"
Hearing these words, the members of the Polar Bear Village in attendance all had a stir in their hearts.
That's another new term!
Not exactly, more precisely speaking, this is not new either. The concept of intelligent driving was proposed decades ago and its appearance time is even earlier than that of computers!
But so far, no village or enterprise has been able to realize the so-called intelligent driving.
Now, it seems that Long Village has actually managed to develop the technology from this concept.
......
Under the watching eyes of the audience, following the guidance of the guard, Mr. Tuo Hai got into the cloud carriage's cockpit.
Tuo Hua's physique is large.
His height is nearly two meters!
It is not an exaggeration to describe him as broad shoulders and a thick waist.
Relatively speaking, the cloud carriage was designed by Su Heng based on his own physical standards.
Although Su Heng is not thin or short, his height is only about 1.8 meters tall, and his figure is only a healthy body shape of a normal adult male, which is completely unrelated to broad shoulders and a thick waist.
As a result, the cockpit of the cloud carriage was a bit crowded in comparison to Tuo Hai.
This made Tuo Hua feel somewhat uncomfortable.
However, considering that he is now here to verify the magnetic levitation flight capabilities of the cloud carriage, Tuo Hai did not say much despite feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
Soon, the cockpit cover of the cloud carriage closed again.
Then, under the gaze of many, the cloud carriage, which was stationary on the floor of the reception hall, trembled slightly and rose smoothly from the ground.
In just a few seconds, the cloud carriage had risen to a height of about one meter above the ground again.
At the sight of this, the eyes of the polar bear members flickered slightly.
Korinovsky's face was expressionless, but he felt somewhat heavy in his heart.
Although he hasn't seen the performance of the cloud carriage as described by Wang Weimin yet, it is clear that those are likely true!
After all, Wang Weimin has already publicly brought out the cloud carriage and let them experience it themselves!
The thought of the authenticity of magnetic levitation technology and micro-nuclear power technology made Korinovsky's mood increasingly heavy.
From his perspective, he almost immediately placed these two technologies in the military domain.
That Long Village has been able to use magnetic levitation technology in this seemingly civilian field means something.
It means that this technology is likely to be extremely mature in Long Village!
It also suggests that the military of Long Village must have mastered even more advanced technology in this area!
Imagine if this technology is applied to military aircraft.
Whether it is installed on fighter jets, transport planes, or helicopters, it would be a groundbreaking technological innovation!
Especially for the first two, half a century ago, Niuniu Village developed a vertical take-off and landing fighter jet.
This caused widespread attention around the world at that time.
Black and White Owl Village directly purchased this technology and then invested a large amount of manpower and material resources in upgrading the technology.
Now, they have even developed a vertical take-off and landing stealth fighter jet through this technology!
Internationally, there have always been people who call this technology the future direction for fighter jets.
In fact, this vertical take-off and landing technology does indeed have a very broad development prospect.
After all, in battle, no one can guarantee that their airport will always be safe. Conventional fighter jets require airports of sufficient scale to complete takeoff and landing missions, whereas vertical take-off and landing fighter jets are different; they can reduce the conditions for takeoff and landing to the maximum extent.
Even if the airport is destroyed, as long as there is a flat area capable of parking fighter jets, these planes can take off and land and then carry out combat missions.
The advantage is obviously obvious.
However, this technology has a significant drawback: it consumes too much energy!
Even for the vertical take-off and landing Lightning Stealth Fighter Jet, which Black and White Owl Village has not yet disclosed, its vertical take-off function cannot avoid this drawback.
Lightning fighters can take off and land vertically, but each vertical take-off and landing requires a lot of fuel consumption. The fighter's combat radius will even be halved due to this!
To some extent, this technology is still a burden.
However, the magnetic levitation technology demonstrated by Long Village is different.
If this technology is really mature enough to be widely used in civil applications, then the military applications must have already been implemented!
In other words, Long Village could easily transfer this technology to fighter jets, allowing their own fighters to take off and land anytime and anywhere!
The same is true for the mini-nuclear power reactor technology. If Long Village is able to shrink the nuclear power reactor to such an extent and use it for civilian purposes, it is almost certain that the Long Village military will have mastered this technology.
Similarly, if this technology can be used for civilian purposes, its cost must have already reached an astonishing and controllable standard!
This means that Long Village could easily apply this power source to military fighter jets, converting them all into nuclear-powered aircraft!
Similarly, for transport planes, according to Wang Weimin just now, Long Village's space elevator has a maximum load capacity of up to 2000 tons and a maximum speed of up to 5 times the speed of sound!
What does this mean?
It means that if all this is true, Long Village could potentially use the same technology to build super transport planes with a payload of over a thousand tons!
Or even - super bombers!!
At the thought of these, Korinovsky's heart tightened involuntarily, and his throat felt dry as if he couldn't control it.
Vertical take-off and landing fighter jets, vertical take-off and landing super transport planes, nuclear-powered fighter jets...
One after another, thoughts kept appearing in Korinovsky's mind.
Along with these thoughts, Korinovsky's other ideas were quietly dispelled...
.........
As Korinovsky's thoughts were agitated, Tuo Hai was already flying outside the foreign affairs building with the guard's guidance, driving the cloud carriage.
Seeing this, Korinovsky and others also did not continue to sit idly, but quickly composed themselves and stood up to follow.
Not long after, the group followed the slowly flying cloud carriage to arrive outside the foreign affairs building.
Later, under the gaze of everyone, the slowly flying cloud carriage gradually accelerated and rose.
Not long after, the cloud carriage had risen to a height of over a hundred meters!
Immediately thereafter, a similar exhaust port to an engine at the back of the cloud carriage quietly emitted a ring of azure light.
With the emergence of this azure light ring, the cloud carriage in mid-air accelerated!
Whoosh!
In a blink of an eye, the speed of the cloud carriage had skyrocketed from a pace that could be followed by walking to an astonishing level.
The cloud carriage itself, under the terrifying speed, was flying out over a hundred meters in a blink of an eye!
Then, under the gaze of many eyes, the cloud carriage zoomed through the square outside the foreign affairs building at high speed.
"What is that thing?"
"Look at the sky!"
"I'm gonna rush over! What is that? An alien spacecraft?"
"What a speed! I'm super! Could it really be that extraterrestrials have shown up?"
"Call the police quickly!"
With the flight of the cloud carriage, people playing on the square outside the foreign affairs building were all noticed by the cloud carriage. As expected, chaos quickly spread on the square.
Some people holding phones were quick to pick them up and start taking photos of the sky, even directly calling the police with their phones.
"Dawali, do you really need to keep it a secret?"
Watching the increasing crowd and exclamations on the square, Korinovsky asked with profound implications.
"Secret?" Wang Weimin slightly shook his head. "Mr. Korinovsky, the cloud carriage is not some secretive technology. We have made relevant plans to launch magnetic levitation-powered cars throughout Long Village in the next few years. By then, people from all over the country will be able to get close to, drive, or even ride magnetic levitation cars..."
Comprehensive promotion?
Hearing Wang Weimin's response, Korinovsky's pupils constricted.
The hands at his sides also involuntarily tightened.
Wang Weimin's casual words were like a heavy bomb to Korinovsky.
At this moment, Korinovsky's heart was involuntarily stirred up by the tidal wave.
.........
Two hours later, Korinovsky left the foreign affairs building with a calm smile on his face.
"Tsallofski, what do you think?"
Returning to the hotel, Korinovsky immediately called all the polar bear core administrators who had followed him into the suite.
Facing the inquiry, the burly man in front of Korinovsky fell silent.
Not only the burly man, but also the other several polar bear core administrators, all fell into the same silence.
The scenes that occurred in the foreign affairs hall kept passing through their minds.
Along with these scenes, countless derived thoughts and guesses were also flashing through their minds.
After what seemed like an eternity, a voice finally echoed in the suite:
"Sir, I think we can accept Long Village's conditions. The times have changed. If we don't catch up with Long Village's fast train, we might only end up being eliminated by the times!"
Turning his gaze, the speaker was none other than the burly man who had been questioned earlier.
Upon hearing this, the people present exchanged looks.
Some people were about to say something subconsciously.
But in the end, when the words were on the verge of being spoken, they still couldn't say anything.
They really wanted to talk about the glory and status of the Polar Bears they once had.
But now saying these things is of no use.
Today's experience has shattered their glory completely!
"Mr. Petrovich, what's your opinion?"
Looking around at the administrators who wanted to say something but couldn't, Korinovsky turned his gaze towards the old man whose eyes were focused nowhere and still immersed in thought.
However, it seemed that he was too immersed, so Korinovsky's voice did not elicit a response.
It was not until Korinovsky called out again that the old man finally came to his senses.
"I'm sorry, I was thinking about the cloud carriage and space elevator just now, and didn't hear your question, Mr. Korinovsky. What did you ask?"
Coming back to his senses, the elderly man looked at Korinovsky in front of him and asked.
Faced with the question of this top scientist from the Polar Bears village, Korinovsky did not get angry and said again:
"Peterovych, I would like to know your opinion on the technologies that Long Village has presented this time. In addition, I also want to hear your thoughts on whether we should engage in deep cooperation with Long Village."
Upon hearing this, the old man fell silent.
After a long time, he said, "Mr. Korinovsky, I believe we must do everything in our power to obtain the technology of the cloud carriage and the space elevator!"
"?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????" This statement was stunning, and both Korinovsky and the other Polar Bear village administrators were directly stunned.
At this moment, the old man continued:
"Although I have not seen the space elevator and cannot confirm its authenticity, aside from that, the nuclear power technology and magnetic levitation technology of the cloud carriage alone are absolutely capable of leading or even creating a new era!"
"You have also seen the value of these technologies. Even aside from their military value, in the civilian sector alone, these technologies are capable of changing the world's geopolitical landscape!"
"Imagine what would happen if the cloud carriage were to be launched. How would all vehicles in the world face such a situation?"
"Whether it's cars or helicopters, these would be directly eliminated! It's like comparing cars with horse-drawn carriages. In the face of Long Village's technology, those traditional technologies would have no competitiveness at all!"
"The economic value contained within this is something I believe Mr. Korinovsky and the other Polar Bear village administrators should be more aware of than me!"
Upon hearing this, Korinovsky fell silent.
The other Polar Bear administrators exchanged glances with each other and also fell silent.
Seeing this, Peterovych continued:
"The military aspect is something I don't need to say. I can boldly claim that if Long Village truly applies these technologies to military use, then the gap between these technologies and us, and even the whole world, will be much greater than the gap between civil vehicles!"
"Even more so, if we were to face it on the battlefield, what we might encounter could be an unprecedented crushing!"
"It's like when the Bull Village conquered the land where the Black and White Eagle Village is now, and its crushing of those native people!"
"And I have reason to suspect that Long Village definitely has even more advanced technology than this. According to my understanding of them, they would never easily reveal their top-tier technology!"
"In other words, the gap between us and them will only be even greater than what we see now!"
Peterovych's voice was unwavering in determination.
By the time he finished, Peterovych couldn't help but sigh.
After hearing Peterovych's words, Korinovsky and the others looked at each other and fell silent once more.
Long Village!
Black and White Eagle Village!
Cloud carriage!
Space elevator!
And the countless cutting-edge technologies unveiled by Long Village, including "Sword Twenty-One" and power armor, etc.……
One thought after another kept flashing through the minds of Korinovsky and others.
After what seemed like an eternity, a voice finally echoed in the suite:
"Mr. Korinovsky, the times have changed, and I believe we should, and must, engage in deep cooperation with Long Village..."
