Chapter 1139 Capsule train, point-to-point travel

"For the future construction model of pipe bundle channels, Changtian Technology envisions a combination of main pipelines and branch pipelines. The main pipeline is generally the channel between cities, just like the aorta of the human body.

This area will operate at ultra-high speed, which will greatly shorten the time for everyone to travel far away. Those who live in the capital and the surrounding areas of Shanghai can go to these big cities to sleep more and not be so tired.

The branch pipeline model can generally be understood as the transportation network within the city, or the subdivided tube bundle channels centered on the station and radiating to the surroundings, just like the small blood vessels of the human body.

When everyone arrives in Beijing, do they still have to get off the car and find public transportation to go to their respective jobs?

Some people are in the east of the city, and some are in the west of the city.

Then a number of managed corridor lines are needed to transport people, just like the subway in the city, to solve the last mile problem.

On the other hand, Changtian Technology also has to consider some social issues.

As mentioned just now, if the pipe bundle reaches every village, then these branch pipes will radiate out from the site and extend to the village. Everyone can get on the bus at the entrance of the village and go to various places." Chen Xiao said this all at once.

A lot, but my mouth is a little dry. I made a strategic drinking arrangement to allow everyone to digest it well.

The Xia people were very moved, and the foreigners were very envious.

"Changtian Technology is really a company with great kindness. I cried to death. It has actually considered the travel problems in the vast rural areas. How can I do it? There are only a dozen people in our village, but it dares to make such a promise."

"The country has launched a village-to-village project, allowing every village to build cement roads, which is already a great merit. Now Changtian Technology actually wants to connect every village to the vacuum maglev train. It is really... worthy of the Ancestral Temple."

"Sincerely, I envy the people of the Xia Kingdom. Our big city here still has dirt roads. The people of the Xia Kingdom actually plan to connect the village with a train? Oh my god, is this any different from building an elevator between the earth and the moon?"

"It's all in a vacuum environment, maybe something will actually happen! Let's not talk about it, when will this project come to my country? Forget it, it seems that it is more realistic for me to go to Xia Country."

But soon someone discovered the problem and raised questions.

"If every village builds a station platform, how much will it cost?"

"Is Changtian Technology talking too much? Even if the cost is one-tenth of what it was in the past, there will be a large number of low-efficiency areas, which will pull down profits and increase costs infinitely."

"As much as I hope this is true, I can't think of a way to achieve this goal without losing money."

After online discussions began to increase, some noise also joined in. Many of them were made through mobile phone input, which means that the people who made these comments did not even have wearable devices, let alone

Biochip.

They could only watch the press conference, but they couldn't feel the speed.

To them, a train that travels thousands of miles in a blink of an eye is just a very fast train. In the absence of reference objects, they have no idea at all.

"Bragging, Changtian Technology is bragging again. They may be good at technology, but this is the scope of economic management, and this is obviously impossible to achieve."

"I hope Changtian Technology will not go back on its word, that would be too embarrassing."

"Don't take back what you boasted about Haikou, just wait for Changtian Technology to demolish the east wall to make up for the west wall. Don't be embarrassed, even if you regret it, you will understand, hahaha!"

These noises were quickly dismissed.

"Is there something wrong with talking about operations with Changtian Technology? It's as funny as a beggar talking to the world's richest man about how to do business!"

"Changtian Technology will definitely do what it says. After being slapped in the face so many times, you will only have one mouth left."

"Put those who express messy opinions directly on the blacklist. From now on, all Changtian Technology products will not be used!"

"If Changtian Technology demolishes the east wall to repair the west wall, it will be even more admirable. It itself takes care of ordinary people."

Chen Xiao has been watching the comments on the Internet, and she feels very comforted in her heart. She has done so much for the people, and has always been beneficial to the people. After all, she has been recognized by everyone, and those noises are nothing.

At this time, Chen Xiao spoke again: "Everyone! Let's continue. I also read some of the online comments just now. I thank everyone for your support, but did you make a mistake?"

This was said so nonsense that everyone was stunned and waited for the next sentence.

“Whether they are supporters or opponents, they all feel that Changtian Technology will definitely lose money by doing this, and they all feel that Changtian Technology cannot cover the vast rural areas without losing money, and they even think that Changtian Technology will have to use money from other sources to fill the gap.

Why do you think so? Is there really no way to make a profit?"

Chen Xiao started to sell things, and everyone's brains started to work quickly, but even the CPUs were burned out and they couldn't think of a way to avoid losing money.

The development of the entire Xia Kingdom is extremely uneven. This has nothing to do with policy but geography.

The east is high and the west is low. The natural conditions in the west are poor, while the natural conditions in the east are superior. People will naturally go to the east to develop, which has led to the population being crowded in the eastern coastal areas.

People are also concentrated in six or seven provinces in the central part of Xia Kingdom, but unfortunately the western region is too big! Xinjiang Province alone accounts for one-eighth of the country's area. Even express delivery does not include free shipping. How can you make money?

"Anyway, I can't think of a way! Mr. Chen, please reveal the secret!"

"If Chen Xiao can figure out a way, I will chop him live!"

"I live broadcast eating food! Although I also hope this is true."

"I pee upside down!"

"Locate the IPs of these guys! I will bring people to the door to block them in a moment! Mr. Chen must have a way!"

Chen Xiao was very satisfied with the level of participation, and he spoke, full of Versailles: "I originally wanted to keep it a secret from you, for fear of scaring you, but now I have no choice but to show my cards.

Changtian Technology is currently conducting a research, which has not yet entered into experiments, but related equipment has already begun to be manufactured. That is the capsule train project."

"What kind of naan? The kind from Xinjiang Province?"

"What kind of glue? The kind made from donkey skin?"

"No kidding, what is a capsule train?"

The screen was filled with question marks and I couldn't see anything clearly.

At this time, Chen Xiao used biochips to construct pictures and gave a detailed explanation.

"The capsule train is actually a train that looks like a capsule, and the technology used is still superconducting magnetic levitation.

It is smaller and shorter than the train, but faster. If there are ten people at a time, they will leave. The destination of the ten people can be at any seat on the official website. The system will automatically assign train operations and staggered trajectories.

I know what everyone is thinking, even if you want to do this, you can’t reduce the cost, right?”

Everyone nodded subconsciously. There were only ten people at a time. This passage would not be able to return to its original position until it started to rub and catch fire.

Chen Xiao smiled slightly at this time: "What if multiple capsule trains can run in a pipeline at the same time?"

While talking, Chen Xiao showed off the imaginary picture.

"There are currently several ideas. One is to build a special channel specifically for capsule trains to travel together. One channel can run multiple capsule trains at the same time. As can be seen from the picture, the capsule trains run against the four sides of the tube bundle channel, and the rails are established.

Around the tube channel. From a strength perspective, we can do it."

"I'll go, I have an idea!"

"One pipeline can carry multiple trains at the same time, which maximizes the use of space. It's okay!"

"In this case, it seems that it will work."

At this time, the photo changed, and this photo became more reasonable. There was a special tube train running on the ground, and capsule trains were on the surrounding walls. It looked like silkworm babies lying on the wall.

"This method is also good. It can achieve compatibility in multiple ways without having to specially build multiple types of pipelines."

“Changtian Technology has really great ideas!”

"In this way, everyone can go about their own business without affecting each other. All we need to do is repair the pipelines and make full use of the space."

Chen Xiao spoke at this time: "There are currently two ideas. I personally prefer the second one, because the tube channel cannot be built out of thin air and needs to rely on the existing rail system.

So for operation, one idea is that the main pipeline is still a dedicated tube train, and then the branch pipelines use capsule trains, so that the cost, speed and number of travelers can be taken into consideration."

There are fewer people traveling on the branch pipelines, and rides are scattered. However, there are more people traveling on the main pipelines, which can guarantee the time and frequency of train departures. After combining the two, the cost can be minimized and the largest number of people can be catered for.

"These are preliminary ideas, and we will not aim too high. We will solve the commuting problem in big cities first, but this does not hinder my imagination of the future! In fact, in my mind, the final scene must be for everyone to go out and take capsules directly.

Just trains. At that time, the network of controlled channels was like a spider web. You could go wherever you wanted, and everyone could be taken care of.

Today's transportation is indeed very convenient. High-speed trains and planes are available in almost all big cities. But it is actually inconvenient. Wherever we go, we must first integrate into the large transportation network, such as going to airports, high-speed rail stations, and automobile centers. This requires

Drive or take a ride there.

After arriving in another city, you can then find other means of transportation to slowly get to your destination, perhaps a bus or a shared car. But this is not convenient enough. A lot of time is wasted in the middle, waiting for transportation.

The time is very long.

Once the capsule train network is implemented, it will really be point-to-point transportation.

From a certain community in the city, you can go directly to a rural area without having to crowd with others or wait for a long time. Everything is planned by the server.

This is called cyclically across the entire network. When transporting people, the next person's need to get on the bus at the next stop will also be taken into consideration. Make a reservation in advance and arrive in time, and there will not even be a collision.

To achieve this goal, Changtian Technology has a long way to go, and I hope everyone can work together to create this perfect prospect!"

At this point, the capsule train operation demonstration began, and Chen Xiao projected all the thoughts in his mind.

In the picture, countless capsule trains shuttle through it, so fast that it is dizzying. The best thing is that the number of people and the departure are very reasonable, there is no waste of capacity, and there is no shortage of capacity. The controlled trains are speeding past the main pipeline at the same time.

, solves the problem of concentrated travel. Capsule trains effectively supplement the needs of sporadic travel.

For example, if people from far away places come to university towns, amusement parks, and tourist attractions, they must rely on controlled trains for centralized transportation, right?

The demonstration is very detailed. Following the first-person perspective of the virtual character, everyone can truly experience a person's work, life, entertainment, and going home to visit relatives in a big city.

Virtual characters only need to purchase tickets directly on their mobile phones, or even through biochips, to know when the next capsule train will arrive, and the waiting time will not exceed ten minutes.

Even if you use it in urban areas and often stop and go, the speed is fast enough so that it won't feel too long.

It is approved to carry dozens of guests and is designed very reasonably.

Even if it delays time, it only delays the time of these ten people.

Unlike the previous buses and subways, if they are slow, it will consume the time of dozens, hundreds or even hundreds of people.

This is equivalent to dispersing everyone's anxiety. After all, even if I get off last, there are nine people and nine stations in front of me, so it won't be too uncomfortable.

Everyone looked and marveled.

"It's cool! It's so cool. If we do this in the city, there will be no traffic jams at all!"

"I can finally go home every year to celebrate the New Year, no! I even have to go home every day, even if my hometown is a thousand kilometers away. I have missed too many things!"

"If it is established, I will go home and harvest wheat!"

"I want to go out for a walk, wherever I can. I don't even have time to visit this city!"

The leaders of the transportation system and the CEOs of related engineering companies are already conceiving the construction cost of such a line, but no matter how you calculate it, the cost is definitely much lower than it is now.

As for the concept of profit, they didn't have it from the beginning.

This kind of public facility has never been intended to make a profit, because it really can't be done. This is just a luxury.

They were surprised to find that as long as they continued to invest the money they saved, it would be enough to build such a large and complete road network. Changtian Technology's operation method indeed has a high probability of being profitable. In this way, the country will have more

If the money is invested elsewhere, the welfare of the people will continue to improve.

Chen Xiao continued to explain at this time: "I believe everyone can see that the more people there are, the healthier this model will be. I hope everyone can use it more and participate more in the future. Here I announce that as long as the country allows it, Changtian Technology

We can pilot the construction of a capsule commuting network to solve the commuting problem in urban areas!"

As soon as the news was announced, everyone was excited.

For Xia people, this capsule commute is even more meaningful than controlled trains. After all, the vast majority of people work in small places and do not often travel far. That is, people who work in several places in the capital and Shanghai go to work every day.

It's equivalent to a medium-to-long-distance trip, and trains especially need to be controlled.
