Chapter 591: The Contradiction Between the Old and the New
With shock and a stomach problem, Jiang Nan and his entourage followed Wu Hao to an intelligent regional unmanned delivery center located not far from the company.
This intelligent regional unmanned drop center is actually not large, it is an independent three-story building. It can be seen that at this moment, on the roof of this three-story building, there is a black medium-sized drone taking off and landing from time to time.
The appearance of this drone is similar to the air alert patrol drone that Wu Hao and they unveiled at the Zhuhai Air Show before, the only difference is that a cargo compartment is installed under the belly of the drone to transport all kinds of goods.
"Mr. Wu!" The technicians of this intelligent regional unmanned delivery center saw Wu Hao and them coming, and hurriedly greeted them.
Wu Hao nodded and smiled: "I'll just come over and take a look, you continue to be busy with yours." Jiaming, you left me to introduce the situation. ”
Okay, this young man is Lin Jiaming, the first technician to follow them in the research and development of cluster array technology.
The research and development of this intelligent regional unmanned delivery system project is mainly responsible for the implementation of him.
He nodded at the technicians who followed him, signaling them to continue their work. Then he smiled at Wu Hao and said, "Mr. Wu, why are you free to come over today." ”
Wu Hao glanced at Jiang Nan with a smile, and then said: "Didn't I just buy a cup of coffee with your system, the experience was not bad, it just so happened that Reporter Jiang was interested, so we came over to take a look."
How's it going, it's getting to that stage now? ”
Lin Jiaming glanced at Jiang Nan and the two cameras that were facing them and some other people, then nodded and smiled: "Welcome, welcome to reporter Jiang, I am Lin Jiaming, deputy chief engineer of the intelligent regional unmanned delivery system project, welcome to you." ”
"Thanks, forester, excuse me." Jiang Nan hurriedly shook Lin Jiaming's hand, and then said apologetically.
"Don't bother, don't bother." Lin Jiaming shook his head, and then smiled at Wu Hao and Jiang Nan and introduced: "Now this intelligent regional unmanned delivery system has entered the actual operation test stage, and we have accumulated very rich data.
Next, we will improve and optimize these data and the exposed problems, and strive to complete the next stage of testing as soon as possible.
Of course, we also gained a lot during the testing period. From the very beginning, we went to merchants for cooperation, and now many merchants have taken the initiative to find us, hoping to join the test link of this system.
And we have more and more registered users for this test system, from less than 30 test users to thousands of active users.
Now we have to process tens of thousands of orders every day, and 85% of them can be delivered within 15 minutes, and customer satisfaction is very high. ”
Wu Hao and Jiang Nan nodded when they heard this, they were able to accumulate so many test users in the test link, and they could reach tens of thousands of orders per day, which showed that this system had been very successful.
"Is there any problem or difficulty?" Wu Hao then asked.
Lin Jiaming glanced at the camera, then nodded at him and said, "There are many problems, and there are many difficulties."
The first is that we have encountered a very difficult problem, that is, someone is maliciously sabotaging our drones and unmanned vehicles. ”
"Well, what's going on?" Although Wu Hao had a rough guess in his heart, he was still stable.
Lin Jiaming shook his head with a wry smile and said: "In addition to some curious and deliberately troublemakers, there is also the behavior of a takeaway brother who secretly destroys unmanned vehicles.
Of course, these have been captured by our surveillance cameras set up on drones and unmanned vehicles, and the relevant personnel have also been handed over to the police for processing.
But the problems exposed are still worthy of our attention, after all, if we want to promote this system, such things may be encountered often. ”
Jiang Nan nodded when he heard this, indeed, this is a tricky question. This intelligent regional unmanned delivery system can be regarded as robbing the courier and the takeaway brother of the job, so the takeaway brother will destroy their equipment.
It sounds very reasonable, and even many people sympathize with the plight of the courier and the delivery boy. But no matter what happens, it is not a reason for them to maliciously damage other people's devices.
Wu Hao didn't rush to speak, but looked at Lin Jiaming and asked, "What do you think, is there any good solution?" ”
Lin Jiaming shook his head and said, "This is an irreconcilable contradiction, and it is impossible to completely solve it.
So we can only start from other aspects, on the one hand, to strengthen the anti-vandalism of our own equipment. In particular, unmanned vehicles that are easily damaged will be strengthened in the subsequent improvement, optimization and upgrading of the equipment.
Secondly, it is to add relevant warning words to the system. For example, when someone maliciously damages the device, our device will be recorded for forensics. On the other hand, warning voices and words are sounded to warn the other party not to continue to destroy.
In the end, it is to strengthen relevant publicity efforts and gradually alleviate the contradictions between the two sides. ”
Wu Hao nodded when he heard this: "These methods are not bad, so let's implement them according to this."
It is normal that the creation of new things will inevitably be strongly blocked by old things. However, from the point of view of development, the new will eventually replace the old.
So, you have to make this clear to everyone. Not only our own researchers, but also the public, as well as these food delivery guys and couriers.
Of course, this process of replacing the old with the new cannot be too fast, and it requires a gradual evolutionary process.
So we can't rush it, we have to take it slowly. If the development is too fast, the contradictions aroused will become more and more acute, which is not in our interests and is still less conducive to our development.
Secondly, our system still has its own big defects, it can not completely replace labor, but needs to be supplemented by labor.
For example, some oversized and overweight express shipments are not suitable for this system to transport and deliver. Another example is that some services are involved in take-out, such as self-service hot pot, which our equipment cannot do.
Therefore, as you proceed, you also have to gradually lead these people to these transformations.
Finally, the scope of this intelligent regional unmanned delivery system is relatively limited at this stage, and it is now suitable for high-end communities, high-end business districts, and some communities with relatively complete base equipment.
And like some urban villages in the city, remote suburbs, and some old towns and villages with poor traffic and security, this still needs to be delivered manually. ”
