Xiaomi Heavy Industry, its first entrepreneurial venture!

Chapter 348 The Real Uses of Drones! (Third Update!)

After hurling insults, Jiang Daqiao felt increasingly uneasy, because it was the TV station that was taking the initiative and causing trouble, and it had nothing to do with him.

But the words had already been spoken, and he couldn't take them back.

Thinking of this, he made another call to Qin Chao.

When Qin Chao's voice came, he immediately added:
"Call the leaders in the province and explain the whole story."

"I'll go there myself later."

"Also, I did you a huge favor this time, what are you going to give me in return?"

"I'll treat you to a meal!" Qin Chao replied quickly, hanging up the phone before Jiang Daqiao could respond.

Holding his phone, Jiang Daqiao chuckled and called his secretary over:
"Make preparations for tomorrow. Go to Suzhou and meet with Mr. Lin from Xiaomi Heavy Industry."

“Ask him, we’re all brother cities, we’re all family, how can you show favoritism?”

"After you meet with Mr. Lin, please also visit Qin Chao. I'll prepare a gift later, and you can deliver it to him for me."

Knowing the feud between Qin Chao and Jiang Daqiao, the secretary didn't say much, but quietly asked for more details and what to say when she saw Lin Yi.

After instructing his secretary, Jiang Daqiao tidied up again, picked up his driver, and drove to the provincial government.

Suzhou.

Qin Chao put down the phone, turned around and looked at the people behind him, especially the female host Xia Mengxuan standing in the middle.

He smiled and nodded at the other person, then spoke calmly:
"Hello Ms. Xia, I am here on behalf of Jinling TV to convey the results of our investigation into your case."

"You and the photographer next to you are fired."

"Next, officers from the National Security Bureau will come in to investigate you. If you pass the investigation, you will still be free."

"If the review fails, then congratulations, you can go to Longchang to seek enlightenment."

The sudden news struck Xia Mengxuan like a thunderbolt. She stumbled back a few steps until she bumped into the sofa, which helped her stop falling and regain her balance.

He opened his mouth and murmured a few times, trying to speak, but couldn't utter a single word.

She couldn't believe that the TV station director would risk a drop in ratings by firing her, the station's mainstay.

But the person in front of me is Qin Chao.

The Party Secretary of Suzhou City.

Throughout Jiangsu Province, he is a big shot who can influence people with a single word, even across cities.

He has no reason to lie to himself!
Upon realizing that this was true, Xia Mengxuan clutched her head and let out a sharp, piercing scream, making Qin Chao's already small office feel even more cramped.

Seeing the person screaming, Qin Chao couldn't help but sigh. But there was nothing he could do. Lin Yi was the hope of Gusu. Anyone who wanted to touch him was going against Gusu.

We must not tolerate this.

We are in the early stages now. Only by setting a good example and making an example of someone can we prevent more trouble from happening.

He thought he could offer some words of comfort once the other side calmed down, but after waiting for a long time, Xia Mengxuan was still able to let out sharp screams. Under the influence of these sharp sounds, Qin Chao also lost his patience.

He pointed at Xia Mengxuan and said to Xiao He, "Go and call two people. Also, contact the Public Security Bureau and tell them to send someone over as soon as possible to take her away."

"His screams are even worse than a pig being slaughtered!"

He had just finished speaking when Bai Fang, who had been standing to the side watching everything from an observer's perspective, suddenly leaned closer:

"Just to correct you, the screaming of a pig during slaughter doesn't last that long!"

In short, Xia Mengxuan, who had been screaming, stopped. Xiao He, who was about to call for help, froze. Qin Chao was stuck. The photographer, who had been acting as a background figure, didn't know what to say.

Qin Chao was stuck for a long time before the CPU finally started, and he belatedly said:

"It seems...it seems that the screaming of a pig during slaughter really doesn't last that long."

After speaking, he realized he had been led astray, shook his head, and continued speaking to Xiao He:
"Go quickly and get him out of my office."

Xiao He acted quickly. He didn't wait for the police to arrive, but instead called a few security guards to take the person away first.

Once everyone left, the office became completely quiet.

Listening to the subtle sounds around him, Qin Chao felt his ears were exceptionally clear and he felt that the quiet of life was so beautiful.

After sitting there for about 10 minutes, he took out his phone again and dialed Lin Yi's number.

As soon as the voice from the other end came through, he quickly said:
"The matter has already been dealt with in Jinling. The reporter has been dismissed and handed over to the National Security Bureau."

"If she has no problems, she can continue to be a free person; if she has problems, then she can go to Longchang to seek enlightenment."

"If you encounter something like this again, contact me immediately and I will handle it."

"Even if I can't handle it, I can find someone else to handle it, understand?"

Xiaomi Heavy Industry.

Hearing Qin Chao's voice on the phone, Lin Yi felt a warmth from the corpse. Indeed, people still have to be useful.

Unlike my past life.

After calming himself down, he gave a soft "hmm" in response. Qin Chao then gave him a few more instructions before hanging up the phone.

Putting the phone away, Lin Yi looked at Mao Xiaofei and the others in front of him:
"Done?"

Mao Xiaofei pointed to the pickup truck next to him: "The stuff is all loaded. Now we need to find a remote place with a weak signal to test it."

A more remote place?

Lin Yi rested his chin on his right hand and began searching his mind for places that were a bit remote and had a weak signal.

After much thought, a name quietly surfaced in his mind.

Xishan Island.

Or rather, the surface of Taihu Lake.

In the past, besides testing drones, it was also a good opportunity to check on the progress of preliminary preparations in Xishan Island Town, killing two birds with one stone.

He waved his hand: "Let's go, Xishan Island!"

Having determined their destination, the group climbed into the car and sped off towards Xishan Island.

Lin Yi's co-pilot was Fahbad.

This Arab from Iraq, after several months of hard work and experience, has shed the naivety he showed when we first met and gained a more mature demeanor.

Looking at the scenery rushing past the window, he suddenly asked:
"Mr. Lin, do you think there will ever be a day when we Iraqis truly take control of Iraq and establish our own country?"

Upon hearing Fahbad's question, Lin Yi, the driver, kept his gaze fixed straight ahead and calmly replied:
"As long as you keep fighting, sooner or later you will build your own Iraq, instead of a puppet Iraq."

"If you don't know what to do, you can look into our history."

“Your history…” Fahbad lowered his head and murmured, then raised his head again, forcing a smile:

“I only realized I didn’t know what to do after I looked through your history.”

"In the history I have seen, in the last 100 years, you have indeed suffered a lot of humiliation, and you have also broken those shackles with your own fists."

“But going back 5000 years, you have stood on this land in East Asia.”

"The Hungarians have always claimed that their ancestor Attila was driven westward by you."

"The Turks mentioned in the Turkic identity that Turkey's first president, Kemal Atatürk, always emphasized were the ones you defeated." "The Mongol Empire, which once unified Central Asia and wielded its whip to the Mediterranean, was also destroyed by you."

"At any time, in any place, whenever your people are in danger of dying, countless heroes will appear to save your people from this peril."

"Ultimately, we will move towards unification."

"But we are different!"

"Religious beliefs, sects, families, all sorts of problems are involved. Everyone is like a pile of loose sand. Whether you fight to the death or not has nothing to do with me. If you win, I'll shout a couple of times. If you lose, I'll still shout a couple of times."

"It is precisely because I have seen these things that I do not know what to do."

Seeing the young man growing increasingly frustrated, Lin Yi slowed down the car and turned his head slightly to comfort him:

"You're still young, you still have a chance to try."

"More than 100 years ago, there was a man in our country who, like everyone else, tried to save the country by various means."

"He considered reform, he considered seeking external help, he even considered the mafia. He joined various political parties, he tried everything, and it took him decades, but he never gave up."

"As long as we keep fighting, there will be hope."

"Moreover, Israel and America, who have been interfering with you, cannot remain powerful indefinitely."

"This is the law of how the world works, and no country can resist it."

"Okay, we're here."

"Wipe away your tears, let's watch something fun!"

The convoy stopped on a mountain road. Under Fahbad's curious gaze, Mao Xiaofei jumped out of the vehicle, lifted the tarpaulin from the back of the pickup truck, and with the help of others, dragged the equipment off the truck.

After everything was put away, Fahbad realized that in addition to the four drones, Mao Xiaofei and his team had also towed something that looked like a control terminal.

The control terminal and the drone are powered on and begin searching for signals to connect to satellites.

In less than 10 seconds, both devices emitted sound simultaneously.

"Satellite connection successful. Current number of low-Earth orbit satellite connections: 3. Current number of geostationary orbit satellite connections: 1."

After working for a while next to the control terminal, Mao Xiaofei looked up:
"Boss, the parameters are set."

Lin Yi nodded: "Let's begin the test!"

Having received permission, Mao Xiaofei turned to look at the two security guards beside him:
"rush!"

At a command, the two security guards exchanged a glance and disappeared into the roadside bushes in the blink of an eye.

If it weren't for the grass they trampled still swaying, no one would have noticed that there were people here.

After the two disappeared into the bushes, Mao Xiaofei took out his watch and silently counted the time. Ten minutes later, he turned to look at the person next to the control terminal:
"Start the drone."

Four drones took off and moved along the bushes where the two people disappeared. After searching around, they did not see anyone on the camera.

Mao Xiaofei turned around unhurriedly: "Switch to infrared mode."

The staff at the control terminal received the instruction to switch the optical lens carried by the drone to an infrared lens.

As soon as the switch was made, the content displayed on the control terminal screen changed.

Because it was under the blazing sun, the view was very bright, but among these bright spots, two red figures could still be seen hiding in the grass.

are people.

It was well hidden.

The operator tapped twice on the screen, and the two drones descended, each landing on top of a person's head.

The other two drones switched their infrared lenses to optical lenses and aimed them again at the location where the people were hiding.

The people in front of the screen stared at the camera for a while, but still couldn't find the two people. Finally, Mao Xiaofei used a walkie-talkie to call them out.

The bushes suddenly came to life, and Fahbad's eyelids twitched when he saw them.

I wanted to say something, but I didn't know what to say, so I could only pretend to be busy and keep pacing around and looking at the screen.

After testing the infrared camera for a while, Mao Xiaofei picked up the walkie-talkie again:

"Start terrain scanning and 3D modeling!"

At a command, the staff member next to the control terminal tapped the screen several times, and under his control, the drone rose in altitude and took several photos of the ground.

The staff then selected an area from the photo and clicked confirm.

These are a few houses at the foot of the mountain ahead.

Upon receiving the instruction, the four drones flew towards the houses ahead, arrived over the target area, and began taking pictures from different angles, activating laser rangefinding.

As the drone flew overhead, a gray 3D map model slowly appeared on the control terminal screen.

A few minutes later, the 3D model on the control terminal was completely completed.

After inspecting the model, the staff member stood up and handed over control of the terminal to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi sat down in front of the control terminal and pulled Fahbad over:
"Come here. If I give you this thing and let you take command, what are your chances of winning?"

Looking at the screen, Fahbad realized that this was not a simple 3D model.

Instead, it was a 3D demonstration with a slight delay.

In the gray model, you can see a faint red flashing at the window.

That's a person.

In addition to the model itself, two strings of data are displayed on the left side of the terminal.

The first set of data consists of the distance from the terminal to the target model area, wind direction, wind speed, and air humidity.

The second set of data includes the target area bunker type, target distance, gun barrel angle, correction direction, wind speed, and ammunition type.

After staring at the second string of data for a long time, Fahbad slowly raised his head, pointed to the string of data, and asked:

"Is this data used by the artillery?"

"This data must be from artillery, right?"

"Wait, aren't your drones for committing suicide? Why are you making this kind of thing?"

"What did we buy before?"

Fahbad became increasingly agitated as he spoke, and Lin Yi brought his right index finger to his lips:

"Shh!"

"Keep your voice down!"

"Suicide drones are just a small, albeit cheap and effective, use of drones."

"But besides this use, drones have many, many other uses."

"Our current drones are equipped with reconnaissance, mapping, and firing data annotation functions."

"With this, we can get information ahead of others on the battlefield."

"I'm just asking you, is it working or not!"
