Klee drove through the speed measuring area and the measured speed was 301 kilometers per hour!
Shen Qin stared at the Brightcrown vehicle, closely to see what she would do next.
"Next are the four consecutive right-angle turns..." Klee muttered to herself, her eyes fixed on the front. When she reached the right position, she released half of the accelerator, moved half of her foot to the brake and stepped on it with all her strength, while turning the steering wheel to the lower left. After the front of the car turned sixty degrees, she immediately turned the steering wheel to the upper right.
The huge vehicle was seen drifting into the first turn with a flexibility beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. The key point was that the speed did not decrease much!
Then, almost like copying and pasting, it passed the remaining three right-angle turns in the same standard drifting posture.
Shen Qin, who witnessed all this, widened his eyes. He had never taught Sucrose how to drift, and she had been driving in a very standard way during practice yesterday. Could it be that Klee... had learned it on her own?
"Amazing! Such a humongous vehicle, yet it moves so nimbly!"
"By Barbatos' Grace, what did I see? How did it overcome the speed limitation on turning?"
Although the people of Teyvat did not know the difficulty of drifting, they also knew that it was difficult for any object to turn when moving at high speed - animal-drawn vehicles traveling at high speeds would often overturn due to sharp turns.
Next, Klee did not disappoint Shen Qin. She completed all the events perfectly in order, including mountain trekking, wading, single-sided bridge, extreme braking distance... her performance was even more perfect than Sucrose.
Shareholders and customers kept their eyes on the Ming Guan. Every time it showed strong performance, they cheered and applauded excitedly. When the Ming Guan returned to the finish line - not far in front of them, they all applauded and walked quickly towards it.
Sucrose and Jean, who had already run back here, stared at the Mingguan in amazement. They couldn't believe that the perfect display just now was done by Klee.
Albedo and Diluc both breathed a sigh of relief, and the expressions on Sucrose and Jean's faces also eased.
Shen Qin glanced at Jean's face and felt relieved for Klee. Although she would still be punished, it would at least not be too severe.
"Klee's performance this time was really good..." He smiled, looking at the Brightcrown that Klee's driving.
Albeit, the next moment his expression completely froze up, because the Brightcrown started again and ran straight out of the exhibition area. It soon climbed over a small hill and disappeared on the other side of the hill.
Shen Qin: Huh??? No... Klee, where are you going?
Jean's face turned from gloomy to stormy in an instant. She immediately called Klee using her smart bracelet, but Klee didn't answer.
Sucrose also sent a message to the Brightcrown: "Klee! Where are you going? Come back here!"
Shen Qin realized that this girl was probably having too much fun, so he immediately stepped on the flying hoverboard said, "Diluc, I leave this to you. I'll go get her back!"
But Sucrose stopped him halfway, and said expressionlessly: "I didn't take good care of her. I'll go."
She was even angrier than Jean now. After all, it was because of her negligence and failure to keep an eye on Klee that she drove the Brightcrown, and finally caused trouble. Fortunately, the demonstration of the vehicle's performance was successfully completed in the end.
The farce should have ended here, but perhaps Klee felt that she had not been beaten enough, so she drove away without permission...
Looking at Sucrose's expression, Shen Qin just wanted to mourn for her in silence.
Sucrose rode Shen Qin's hoverboard to chase Klee. Jean wanted to follow, but Albedo held her back: "You represent the Knights, so it's better for you to stay here. I'll take care of Klee."
Jean nodded grimly at Albedo, feeling helpless.
Shen Qin explained to the puzzled customers: "Our drivers are quite strong-willed. As a young man, it's understandable that they enjoy driving. Don't worry about her. Next, I'll take you to see the performance of the Dawn and Cider Lake..."
Compared with the Brightcrown's performance, the Dawn and Ciderlake ships is more mediocre, but most people are still more interested in these two models - the Brightcrown is too expensive after all, and it is not suitable for small-scale cargo transportation. There are also not many forces that can use it.
After watching the display of three transport vehicles, everyone came indoors.
The staff distributed relevant information to everyone, so that they could have a deeper understanding of the transport vehicles. The information also included detailed information such as quotation, delivery time, and cooperation method.
Before the press conference, Shen Qin held several meetings with all shareholders to discuss the commercial operation model of these large-scale construction machinery.
Some people suggested not to sell any construction machinery to the outside world. Akademiya City would set up its own engineering team and contract out construction projects. It would also only supply its own transport fleet with transport vehicles and provide transportation services to customers.
But to be honest, doing so would be a bit ugly, as it would basically completely monopolize the entire market. Other transport teams and construction teams could be disbanded on the spot, or become outsourced personnel for Academy City-related businesses.
Is it really a good thing for Akademiya City to be the only dominant city?
Forces such as the Dawn Winery, Snezhnaya, and the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce are indeed very powerful, but there are forces in the entire Teyvat that can contend with them. Anyway, the Akademiya City is still too weak now. If it arouses public anger and is boycotted by a coalition, then the situation will be extremely difficult.
Therefore, the business operation model finally decided by Shen Qin and Diluc is to open up most of the construction machinery for sale to the public without affecting the construction of the Akademiya City, and provide paid worker training services. Only those who pass the assessment and obtain the corresponding construction machinery operation license can officially take up their posts.
Academy City will also have its own engineering and transportation teams, but in the early stages they will definitely all be devoted to the construction of Akademiya City, and in the later stages they may go out to contract business.
Another benefit of opening up the sale of construction machinery is that it allows funds to be recovered as quickly as possible.
Anyway, Akademiya City has been burning money so far, and no benefits have been seen from the start. The construction of the city in the future will also be a money-burning project.
Only by continuously launching new products to recover profits and maintain a balance between income and expenditure can the scale of Academy City continue to expand.
However, because of its exclusive technology, Academy City's quote for construction machinery is still slightly high.
The market price of the Cider Lake small transport truck is 700,000 Mora, the Dawn medium transport truck is 2 million Mora, and if the cargo compartment is replaced with a passenger compartment, it will cost 2.2 million Mora. The Bright Crown large transport truck is 20 million Mora, and the selling prices of other construction machinery range from 300,000 to 5 million Mora.
If you place an order for more than ten machines at the same time, you can enjoy a 50% discount.
The prices of all the construction machinery seem very high, but Akademiya City is the only city in Teyvat that can provide them, so customers who intend to buy have no other choice.
They also understand that the construction machinery is a never-before seen attack on traditional manual working methods. Whether it is work efficiency or work accuracy, machinery has the upper hand.
Unless its Morax who will personally takes charge of the infrastructure construction.
