He frowned and looked in the direction of the sound.
As the car was supposed to be going around the obstacle, it suddenly accelerated and smashed into the obstacle made of water buckets.
Upon seeing this, the bodyguard at the finish line's expression changed slightly.
But when he thought of He Qi's orders, he stood firmly in place.
The second-to-last obstacle is the same.
The car still didn't give way, but continued to accelerate.
Before long, the car was already traveling at a speed of 60.
In the blink of an eye, it crashed into the next obstacle.
Several sand buckets shattered, sending dust and sand flying everywhere!
Exclamations rose and fell across the scene as everyone stood up in alarm, staring at the end of the track.
He Qi also stood up in disbelief, grabbed the railing, and looked over there.
"How can this be?"
He muttered to himself.
But the chaotic end clearly reminded him that all of this was real!
Chapter 382: An Unexpected Turn of Events in the Experiment
There were no more obstacles in front of the car, leaving only a hundred meters between it and the bodyguard.
For a car traveling at speeds exceeding 80 mph, those 100 meters are just a breath away.
The bodyguard finally wavered. He Qi's orders were important, but not worth risking his life to carry them out.
Without hesitation, he rushed to the side.
But the car seemed to have eyes, and it turned and rammed into him.
Through the large screen, people could clearly see the safety officer in the passenger seat frantically pressing the backup brake, but to no avail.
Autonomous driving has taken over the entire vehicle.
Until a loud bang.
"Oh!"
There was total silence.
All the cameras and eyes were fixed on the end of the runway.
The car crashed into the wall.
And in front of the car was He Qi's bodyguard!
However, his body had already been smashed into the wall by the car.
His mouth was slightly open, as if he was calling for help, but no sound came out, only blood kept flowing.
A moment later, the bodyguard stopped breathing.
Seeing this sudden scene, everyone was deeply moved.
They came to witness the debut of the world's first L4 autonomous vehicle, but unexpectedly, they witnessed a car accident.
Even on the big screen, the safety officer sitting in the passenger seat was lying in a pool of blood.
The scene was deathly silent, as if frozen in time.
He Qi trembled all over, his face filled with horror.
At that moment, he had only one thought in his mind, not saving people.
Instead, he's finished!
"Jingle Bell!"
The phone rang suddenly.
Lin Wan'er picked up the phone and handed it to He Qinzhou.
He Qinzhou leaned back leisurely in his recliner, playing with Li Qingqing's hair with one hand while taking the phone with the other.
After the call connected, He Qinzhou remained indifferent upon hearing the voice on the other end.
"How many died?"
He Qinzhou's unexpected appearance drew the attention of all the women.
After hearing the reply, He Qinzhou hung up the phone with satisfaction.
He glanced at Lin Wan'er and gave her a look.
The other party immediately understood and contacted someone on the computer.
A few minutes later, a trending topic appeared directly on Weibo's headlines.
At the World Trade Center! During the testing of a new car by the He family, the vehicle suddenly went out of control, killing two test personnel on the spot!
This trending topic has garnered tens of millions of views.
But when you click on it, there isn't a single comment, which is obviously because someone paid to push it up.
However, after refreshing the page, the number of comments suddenly skyrocketed.
Most people know about the He family because of its listing on the stock exchange, which attracted a large number of shareholders, coupled with the family's mysterious background.
Many more people were drawn to He Yingying as their idol and He Qinzhou's past reputation.
Upon hearing that something had happened to the He family, He Yingying's fans immediately flocked to the scene.
In less than five minutes, the number of views doubled to tens of millions.
Comments and shares also exceeded 10,000 each.
The women watched from the sidelines, their hearts filled with unease.
Only then did they realize that He Qinzhou was manipulating something.
But what exactly is being controlled?
She doesn't know yet.
I just feel that it's vaguely related to the He family!
Test site.
Everyone was panicked.
The media personnel, on the other hand, were running around doing everything they could, enjoying themselves immensely, believing they had finally caught the headlines.
However, after reporting back to his superior, he discovered that someone had already posted the message a long time ago.
The others, however, dared not remain and quickly left.
Some reporters, having had their chance to make headlines snatched away, could only target He Qi, and one reporter, accompanied by a photographer, jogged up to him.
"Mr. He, there are problems with the testing of the He family's new car. Were you aware of this beforehand, or was it that you specially produced a half-finished car that had not undergone testing and verification in order to cope with the World Trade Conference?"
"Mr. He, could you please share your thoughts on this matter?"
"Many people are paying attention to the He family's new car. Now that a safety issue has arisen, how do you plan to handle it? Please give a direct answer."
Faced with a barrage of microphones, He Qi was somewhat at a loss, still reeling from the shock.
In the end, it was Michiko who stepped forward and stopped the reporter.
But Tori, who was standing to the side, suddenly stood up: "Hmph!"
"Mr. He, is this the guarantee your He family has given to the Nov family?"
"To manipulate the He family's stock, they're treating human lives like this. Those were two precious lives, Amen."
"Mr. Nov, I will handle this matter well, please rest assured!"
With so many cameras watching, He Qi immediately stood up when he saw Tori.
But Tori shook off He Qi's hand: "We need strong partners. The Nov family values integrity most in business. What the He family did is simply unforgivable!"
"On behalf of the Nov family, I announce the termination of our cooperation with the He family!"
Upon hearing this, He Qi was deeply shaken.
A trillion-dollar partnership seems incredibly tempting.
But for the He family, it won't have much of an impact.
The problem is that the media is right there, recording everything with cameras.
At this point, Tolly announced the termination of the contract, which was extremely detrimental to the He family!
"Mr. Nov, our cooperation is protected by law. If you terminate the cooperation at will, you will face hefty penalties for breach of contract!"
He Qi knew that persuasion was useless, so he directly threatened him.
But Tolly just sneered, "Mr. He, as the CEO of the He family, I hope you take some time to carefully review the contract you personally signed. The contract stipulates that if either party is involved in deception, they can unilaterally terminate the contract!"
"what?"
He Qi gritted his teeth and looked at Michiko with disbelief.
But the other party nodded helplessly.
Anger surged within He Qi.
These Russians flock to us when there's profit to be made, but now that they sense danger, they're eager to distance themselves.
He is He Qi!
The future head of the He family will not tolerate this!
"Mr. Nov, your actions are kicking someone when they're down. Are you sure the Nov family has the power to offend the He family?"
He Qi gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.
"Are you threatening me?"
Tori's eyes turned cold as he looked at He Qi.
Feeling the other person's gaze, He Qi's heart trembled slightly.
If we're comparing them, Tolly's age isn't much different from his father's.
The other party has certainly seen more storms than him.
That kind of temperament is naturally inferior to theirs.
"You were the one who started by kicking the He family when they were down!"
He Qi replied.
But the tone of his voice sounded more like an explanation born of fear.
Tori chuckled and said dismissively, "You're overthinking it. I'm just kicking you when you're down. And you'd better understand that the struggle for the He family's heir is not over yet, and you don't represent the He family."
Tolly snorted and led his men away.
He Qi was left standing there, gritting his teeth.
But because of the media, he could only suppress his anger.
This guy is clearly humiliating me!
He cannot represent the He family?
Now, who in the He family can rival him?
Chapter 383: The Couple Meets
Jiang Suyue's car arrived at Dingjun Mountain.
She already knew about what He Lintian had gone through before, and that he was now living a leisurely life here, "picking chrysanthemums by the eastern fence and gazing at the southern mountains."
She got out of the car and went straight into a simple thatched hut.
Inside the room, only He Lintian and Huang Bushou sat facing each other, drinking tea and making merry.
Upon seeing someone approach, Huang Bushou stood up in astonishment. He only recognized He Qinzhou and had never met Jiang Suyue before.
