Super Invincible Battleship
Chapter 974

Chapter 974: Chapter 392 Connecting the World_3 Chapter 974: Chapter 392 Connecting the World_3 In just two short years, Dream Island, with its epoch-making products and services, had gathered a group of mutual beneficiaries around itself and established a solid alliance. This alliance reaped huge profits through collaboration with Dream Island and, in turn, provided various forms of support to it. They catered to each other's needs, developed together, and forged an unbreakable partnership.

The first day of operations at Dream Airport was an immense success. With the addition of the Artificial Intelligence “Dream” to the management and scheduling of airplane takeoffs and landings, the operations were flawless, without a single hitch. However, since it was the opening day, the number of people allowed onto the island was controlled, so there were only a little over a hundred flights and the total number of passengers transported did not exceed thirty thousand.

Once the teething phase was over and Dream Airport demonstrated its high efficiency advantages, the daily influx of people traveling to and from Dream Island via airplane would surpass 100,000. This scenario would take some time to materialize, for the current daily number of people commuting to and from the island had not yet reached that level. However, once Yan Fei's plan to attract population was halfway done, the daily traffic of people to and from Dream Island would be at least several hundred thousand.

The business collaborators of Dream Island came not only to show support for Yan Fei and Dream Island; they were also invited to attend a celebration held by Dream Island. They used this event to summarize the previous year's successful experiences and to outline sales plans for the current year. Not just that, they included the introduction of some new, interesting Dream Island products.

Lu Pingping was in charge of these routine business operations, while Yan Fei only attended the celebration on the first day and did not appear afterward.

Nevertheless, Yan Fei took the time to have detailed discussions with the Chinese Car Manufacturer about the joint production of self-driving cars.

Self-driving cars represent the direction of future development and mark the beginning of the next automotive revolution. The strength of domestic car factories hadn't seen significant development, so even though they recognized the importance of self-driving cars and invested heavily in R&D, their lack of core technology reserves meant their research had not made much progress. Consequently, they had no choice but to seek technical assistance overseas.

Born with a technological Achilles' heel, Chinese car manufacturers had no bargaining power in negotiations. As a result, if foreign carmakers participated in their research, Chinese manufacturers would lose project leadership and become sweatshops for others. Therefore, when Dream Island revealed its capability for self-driving car research, domestic car factories immediately sought collaboration with Dream Island.

Self-driving cars operate through the cooperation of Artificial Intelligence, computer vision, radar, surveillance devices, and global positioning systems, allowing the computer to control a vehicle autonomously and safely without any human intervention. The domestic manufacturers excel in hyping up concepts and assembling different components into complete cars; their strengths lie in production and sales, which makes them very weak in core technologies, not mastering any of the crucial techniques.

Dream Island stands apart from them. Recently, Dream Island Technology experienced a major technological surge, achieving huge breakthroughs in Artificial Intelligence, computer vision, radar, surveillance devices, global positioning systems, and even onboard computers, creating qualified prototypes.

Dream Island also had its shortcomings: it lacked enough production workers, sales outlets, and after-sales services, which is why Yan Fei wanted to cooperate with domestic auto factories. Each side would provide their strengths to collaboratively grow and strengthen the self-driving car market.
