Chapter 88 Cognitive Bias
Song Ren found out that the other party had recognized the wrong person and felt strange. In Pangu's video, he finally appeared in the camera.
But maybe the camera wasn't close enough to capture his close-up; or maybe everyone's attention was on the mecha at that time, and no one noticed that it was him who stepped forward to save people.
Later, Cui Yan quickly intercepted all the videos. Pangu people had no way to look back at it. It was normal for them not to recognize him based on their little memory at the time.
He calmly said nothing and looked towards Xie Bisheng.
Of course, Xie Bisheng preferred to obscure Lin Fan's existence and smiled at Song Ren. Song Ren knew what to do immediately.
"My body is fine. I suffered some minor injuries and am much better now." Song Ren answered the other party's question directly without saying that he was or wasn't.
Of course, I cannot tell the truth completely. It is impossible to say that I will not be injured after falling from such a height.
Telling a little lie can not only appease the other party, but also prevent further problems.
"Oh, that's good, that's good." As expected, the chief engineer did not continue to ask.
Seeing the eye contact between Xie Bisheng and Song Ren, he guessed that confidential information was involved and smiled tacitly. After a few more pleasantries, he went to work on his own.
The staff soon learned that the tall man carrying the equipment box was the driver who rescued Pangu last time.
"That is the captain and instructor of our reserve team. He is not ordinary..." Pilot Pangu was naturally very familiar with Song Ren and praised him to the others.
So Song Ren's identity was confirmed...
When everyone's eyes were focused on Song Ren, Li Chunhua was looking at Pangu attentively.
"It's so big..." He leaned closer to Lin Fan and muttered softly.
That is to say, Lin Fan's social distance has become smaller now, otherwise only Song Ren can hear his whispers.
In the open space, the most eye-catching thing is naturally Pangu, followed by the huge scaffolding-like equipment platform built around Pangu. The staff are busy on those platforms.
But now, most of them stopped what they were doing and leaned on the railing to watch Song Ren.
Pangu stood quietly not far ahead. With Lin Fan's height, he could clearly see Pangu's feet. The height of more than 70 meters is more than 20 stories high. The higher you go up, the harder it becomes to see clearly.
Lin Fan saw Pangu up close for the first time. Compared with the shock last time, he felt that something was missing...
Jin Sichen, on the contrary, had a lot of emotions...
Before meeting Pangu, he, like all the general public, thought that the space station being built in outer space was already at the highest level of technological development.
After meeting Pangu, he knew that he seemed to be wrong. The technological strength demonstrated by 800 far exceeds the current public awareness level.
When he came to the underground fortress today, he saw with his own eyes a variety of high-tech products that were higher than what the outside world recognized, and they were already in normal use here. This discovery once again shows that the outside world has a bias in positioning 800.
Do you think that’s all you see?
No!
You see only what they let you see.
800’s true technological strength is much higher than what he shows!
After seeing the piles and piles in the underground fortress, you will never be amazed by the various virtual high-tech in science fiction movies. Here, those things have become commonplace and ordinary things.
Jin Sichen had seen all kinds of strange people and things in special affairs, and at this moment he had to admit that he was ignorant.
Think about the row of brand new fighter jets on the tarmac when you passed by the flight base on the first day.
Nothing he saw looked familiar. I thought it was because he didn't know much about ordnance and equipment that he couldn't recognize the various models of fighter jets. But now that I think about it, those may be new models that have been developed...
The 800 is so well hidden!
The level of technological development is obviously so high, why should we hide it?
Several speculations flashed through Jin Sichen's mind.
“Tsk!” He chuckled and gasped.
He just said, how could he, an outsider of 800, be brought into such a confidential place so easily.
Hmph! Accompanying Lin Fan is secondly, Xie Bisheng is taking the opportunity to show him the strength of 800.
The power of technology...
What a pity... He signed a confidentiality agreement and couldn't say anything.
I can't say...
"Come up and have a look?" Xie Bisheng saw that Jin Sichen was staring at Pangu and seemed to be very interested, so he invited him politely.
Jin Sichen looked at the towering equipment platforms, frowned slightly, and asked Lin Fan: "Do you want to go up and take a look?"
"Go, go, go!" Li Chunhua was afraid that Lin Fan would not agree, and a Chanting vigorously.
This little plum... Lin Fan had no choice but to follow him. She had become accustomed to Li Chunhua's smiling expression recently, and she didn't want to be glared at by him resentfully anymore.
She nodded.
Li Chunhua jumped up with joy. At the same time, he made fists with both hands and made a successful move. Then he quickly reacted, straightened his expression, and walked seriously.
Song Ren took a quick look at Xie Bisheng and was secretly relieved when he saw that he didn't notice him and was concentrating on leading the way.
Is Li Chunhua a little too arrogant recently? I need to give him a lesson tonight.
Xie Bisheng took the four people into the elevator.
During the ascent, Pangu appeared in front of several people bit by bit from feet to head. Just like the slow motion of a movie, Li Chunhua feasted his eyes and couldn't get enough of it.
The elevator stopped at Pangu’s head.
“Here, let’s take you into the cab and have a look.” Xie Bisheng always smiled easily when facing Lin Fan, like an amiable elder.
“Thank you, deputy director.”
"Hello, Deputy Director Xie."
......
The staff on this floor greeted Xie Bisheng one after another and took a peek at Song Ren. Xie Bisheng nodded all the way, Jin Sichen smiled brightly, Lin Fan didn't care, Song Ren didn't squint, and Li Chunhua was dazzled.
A few people walked quickly to the back of Pangu’s head. A door opened there, leading to the cab at the head.
After taking a few steps in, there are still several staff members in the cab. Seeing Xie Bisheng come in, they all stood up and said hello.
"You are busy, we will leave soon." Xie Bisheng reassured.
"It's not busy, it's not busy. We can come in later." Although the staff didn't know why Xie Bisheng came, it was obvious that it would be better for them to avoid it, and they quickly left.
“Come and take a look, Pangu’s cab looks like this.” Xie Bisheng proudly showed it to several people.
The cab is very large and contains a lot of advanced electronic equipment.
"There are three doors..." Li Chunhua noticed that there were several thick metal doors at the entrance.
“Yes, there are three layers of protection, and there is an escape hatch on the top.” Xie Bisheng pointed to the top of the cab, “The driver can eject from there after being wrapped in the escape capsule.”
The four of them looked up in unison.
There is a spiral circular pattern on the top, which may be the location of the escape hatch. There are three pipelines hanging down from the outside of the circle, connected to something like a hanging chair. There are also many pipelines hanging next to the hanging chair.
“This is the driver’s position.” Xie Bisheng pointed at the thing like a hanging chair and introduced.
Li Chunhua ran over to take a look and found that it was really a half-suspended suspended chair, a bit like a swing for children in the park.
“Why is it a suspended seat?” Li Chunhua asked in confusion, “How to control this?”
In the past, mechanical controls were controlled by sitting on the seat and pressing buttons or rockers. .
“Pangu uses the latest intelligent control system, which combines commands with real-person dynamics. The driver wears special clothing and is connected to these lines. When he moves his body, Pangu will make corresponding actions.”< br>
Xie Bisheng looked at the seat proudly, "The seat only plays the role of fixing the core, restricting the driver to the absolute driving position, and ensuring that he will not fall out of the driving area when his center of gravity changes."
That is to say, it is used to fix the driver. The upper and lower space allows the driver to move his hands and feet widely. Lin Fan understood it himself.
"Is this also an escape cabin?" Song Ren guessed after taking a few glances.
“Yes, it is an escape cabin, and the lines above are connected around the escape hatch. Once a dangerous situation occurs, the seat pops out of the escape cabin and wraps the driver, and these lines will become guide rails. The three lines on the seat At the same time, the line will exert an ejection force to eject the escape capsule." Xie Bisheng knew that he could not hide it from Song Ren, after all, he almost became the Pangu pilot at that time.
Jin Sichen nodded aside, as he thought.
Li Chunhua also nodded confusedly, "Can the current control system achieve the level of mimicry?"
"It is currently achievable, but it is not perfect yet. It is being adjusted and improved." Xie Bisheng said truthfully, "There are still many areas to debug in the system and control. The last accident is the biggest lesson."
Pangu almost had a tragic accident during his first test run. All the staff of Pangu Cave have learned from this and are constantly improving and debugging.
"Scientific development cannot always avoid various situations, and there will also be a process of failure. We can only try our best to reduce this probability." Xie Bisheng sighed, "If it hadn't been for Lin last time..."< br>
He talked about Lin Fan, and when he looked around, he found that she was standing in front of the window without saying a word.
Xie Bisheng walked over and asked without knowing what was going on: "What are you looking at?"
"This place is different from what I thought." Lin Fan was confused.
Pangu's eyes, also known as transparent windows, are rectangular arcs with a wide angle of nearly 140 degrees. It also occupies a large area in the spacious cockpit.
She originally thought that the transparent window should be as clear as glass, allowing her to directly see the outside scene, but she didn't expect that it was gray with tiny grainy lines on it.
Looking out from the inside, you can see nothing but blurry light and shadow. The huge windows serve no other purpose than letting in a little light from the outside.
"Haha, did you originally think that this location was filled with glass?" Xie Bisheng laughed, "Ordinary tempered glass cannot be used here."
He didn't know where he pressed, and the dim screen suddenly brightened, a circle of red light lit up around the edge, and the blurry light and shadow became clear, and the busy staff outside were suddenly displayed in front of everyone's eyes.
There are a lot of incomprehensible data scrolling around the screen, and there are some magnified images from various angles on both sides.
"Deputy Xie, did you activate the window?" A question came from outside.
It turns out that once the window is activated, Pangu's eyes will turn red. The staff outside noticed it immediately and hurriedly confirmed it.
"Yes, I will turn it off later." Xie Bisheng's response reassured the staff who came in for inspection.
"You can just turn it on. There is no need to turn it off. We were originally planning to open the window later for data collection, but now is the time." The other party said with a smile and quickly exited.
He quickly appeared in the side window, returned to the control position not far away, and got busy with other colleagues.
"This is not glass, it is made of special materials... Well, you can think of it as a display screen." Xie Bisheng introduced it generally, "It will only display after it is turned on, otherwise it will That’s what you saw just now.”
He didn’t say much about the details.
Confidentiality is definitely required. But even if it wasn't kept secret, these people might not understand the professional terms he spoke.
"These data..." Li Chunhua wanted to ask curiously, but felt it was inappropriate and quickly stopped.
Xie Bisheng said nonchalantly: "It's program instructions and some data. If the driver gets on the plane, his body-related data will be displayed on it. The screen content is the same as the big screen in the control room. Synchronization. We can see this in the control room to help the pilot control the mecha." "Can it be controlled from the background?" Jin Sichen asked. A mecha that can be controlled in the background, isn’t that a drone?
“The background can be controlled, but the flexibility and maneuverability are not as good as the driver’s own control. Coupled with remote control, there are still some problems such as signal stability and transmission delay. Therefore, background control is only used as a supplementary means. , Normally it is controlled by the driver himself," Xie Bisheng replied seriously.
Jin Sichen nodded. He saw Lin Fan staring outside for a while without moving, and followed her gaze downwards.
On the ground, tiny figures like worker ants shuttled back and forth, busy.
Just as he was about to ask, he heard a vague sigh coming from Lin Fan's mouth:
"Humans... are so insignificant..."
Starting next month , I will change it to 2,000 words per chapter, 2 chapters sooner or later, okay? In this way, everyone can read a thousand more words every day, okay? Hahaha, actually I want to earn the 20% cash back, and I don’t mind a dollar or two, hehehehehe. Votes are encouraged.
