Chapter 264: Rejected design

浩 Li Hao reviews the projects applied by the company's scientific researchers in the office.
For some expensive projects, the laboratory director cannot decide for himself. You must apply for Li Hao's approval.
This is also part of his daily work, except that he used to use parrots for preliminary screening. His job is much easier.
Today, he focused his efforts on re-screening the parrot screening project.
Li Hao did this because he and Zhou Yunsheng visited the Xiong'an New District yesterday, and his heart was stimulated.
He thought that the company's development has now been counted as an internationally renowned technology company.
But when he visited the National Laboratory in Xiong'an New District, he had a feeling of Liu Ye entering the Grand View Garden.
The gap between your company and the national formal laboratory is really too big. Now we must work hard to catch up, while trying to tap the subjective initiative of scientific researchers.
After all, the resources held by their company and the resources held by national research institutes are quite different.
Li Hao briefly checked that the parrot's artificial intelligence was still very good. He did not find valuable technology in the unsuccessful projects.
When he heard footsteps outside his office door, he stopped working and looked out.
Li Hao saw the chief designer of the smart car, Lu Hong, holding a folder and walking towards his office.
Li Hao saw that Lu Hong looked somewhat restrained. With a smile, he invited Lu Hong to sit opposite him and asked him, "Designer Lu, do you have anything to do with me this time?"
Lu Hong handed the documents in his hand to Li Hao: "General Manager Li, this is a brief design plan for the smart car that our team has worked hard for. Please review it."
Li Hao took over the document from Lu Hong. Instead of looking directly at the document, he placed it on a piece of glass under his desk.
I only saw the glass sheet glow immediately after passing through this document. There is a virtual light curtain slowly unfolding.
This file also emits a faint fluorescence after being irradiated.
From this phenomenon, it can be seen that this file is not made of ordinary paper, but is a file compiled by a certain method through glass fiber filaments.
It does not mainly look at the content above with the eyes, but functions like a QR code or a key. For identification by virtual reality imaging equipment.
Li Hao saw the smart car design model displayed by the light curtain in front of him. The smart car is also remarked with various data marked by the scientific research assistance system.
He first saw the shape of the smart car. The appearance coating was silver-gray, which was normal painting.
The car is a bit slender as a whole, and its design looks elegant. It's a bit flexible.
Thinking of this car's shape was designed by An Bingning, Li Hao understood the design. After all, design schemes come with designer preferences.
Seeing the information given by the scientific research auxiliary system, this aerodynamic shape is more labor-saving and can also exert a part of the pressure on the car downwards. Increase the friction between the car and the ground, and reduce the phenomenon of uncontrolled slippage caused by slippery weather.
When Li Hao saw it, he praised: "The aerodynamic shape designed by An Bingning is very good. This shape is one of the alternatives. You can design a few more shapes, which will also give you more choices when producing cars . "
After he had spoken, he looked inside the car again. Just looking at the simple parts, Li Hao frowned.
It also carefully looked at the parts that it thought were important. The more Li Hao saw the smile on his face.
Seeing Li Hao's situation, Lu Hong already mentioned his throat. The car plan that the team worked hard for is probably not in line with the chairman's mind.
After looking at Li Hao, he shook his head slightly and said, "This car design plan failed, and you go back and redesign it."
Lu Hong did not expect that the design of their team was completely rejected. He asked scrupulously: "Please ask President Li to point out what is not qualified, so we can make targeted improvements."
Li Hao stood up and glanced at the car model floating in the air. He zoomed in on the virtual light curtain with both hands to make it show the scene inside the car.
He pointed to the steering wheel of the car and said to Lu Hong, "This is the biggest problem. Can you think of the mistake you made."
Lu Hong looked at their well-designed steering wheels, which have international standards. Even novice design will not have serious deviations.
Moreover, their team also takes into account every issue, and strives to make every detail perfect.
He said in confusion: "I feel this steering wheel is well designed, I really can't find out what is wrong with it."
Li Hao knocked on the table and said, "The steering wheel is well designed, and I didn't say there was something wrong with this.
But we are developing smart cars. What is intelligent is all cars that use autonomous driving. The whole car does not have a steering wheel, and people operate the car in another way.
You don't need to know this method for the time being, it only needs a simple plug-in to implement it. You don't need to leave the interface intentionally.
With this in mind, our cars don't need a steering wheel. "
Lu Hong made a note of it, and murmured in his heart, "You don't say that you have requirements, you only say vague requirements. How can our team know your thoughts? This is really impossible to guess."
Li Hao also pointed out that this car has a second major flaw.
"I looked at this car for a long time and did not find it to have a mechanical forced stop function.
This is a major loophole. You should know that now major auto manufacturers can directly control the car ’s operating system through the cloud platform ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The permissions obtained by the manufacturers are even higher than the owner of the car.
We don't care about the company of others, but since our company is intelligent driving, he must communicate with the company's server.
Although our company's cyber defense capabilities are very advanced, if a hacker fiddles directly on a sold vehicle.
For example, a simple signal disguiser is installed on the circuit of a smart car. Then it is entirely possible for him to bypass our software defense and launch a cyber attack directly on the smart car.
If the hacker has complete control of the smart car and the owner does not have any countermeasures, this will cause great risks.
Due to the possibility of this risk, I require that our smart cars must have a mechanical stop.
Of course, this device can also prevent our automotive electronic system from malfunctioning, and it is used for emergency braking to protect the safety of the vehicle.
This device uses purely mechanical drive to enable smart cars to complete automatic braking in a short time. "
Lu Hong humbly asked for advice: "General Manager Li, we have recorded these. In the next design work, we will make targeted improvements. Do you have any other ideas?"
Li Hao waved his hand and said, "There are still some minor issues that are not very important. As long as these two major issues are resolved, then optimization will be performed one by one."
He saw Lu Hong leave his office respectfully. This person is still very interesting and can listen to others' opinions. Li Hao is also assured of his research on smart cars.
