"Please demonstrate," Ye Lingchen checked out the car in front of him and requested calmly.

The car's exterior looked no different from a regular car. However, it had an extra function added to the basic functions.

Self-driving technology was considered the very peak of technology. Ye Lingchen's proficiency in Technology was almost maxed out. Even with it maxed out, it was not something that he could make happen just like that as there would be a difference on paper compared to actually implementing it.

He feared that it would require him to upgrade the skill after maxing out the proficiency for Technology before he could achieve a breakthrough.

Therefore, he planned to start by designing small portions of intelligent systems. He would first add the function to help detect danger automatically. Baby steps.

Vroom!

Right then, the simulation started. The car drove forward slowly. Along the way, a barrier appeared suddenly. Surprisingly, the moving car was able to bring itself to a stop within a second!

Such an effect would greatly reduce the chances of an accident regardless of it being caused by a careless driver or unexpected incidents.

Next was the second test.

This time, the car's speed was a lot faster. Even the driving distance was lengthened. When the barrier appeared, the tires gave out an ear-piercing screech. Following that, the entire system went nuts and finally ran into the barrier.

"President Ye, we've tried it many times. This system can only function when the speed is less than 50mph. Once it exceeds that speed, it would be very difficult to bring it to a stop," Ouyang Qing explained helplessly.

They have thought of many solutions but were still unable to make any improvements.

If nothing changes, then the system would be rather useless. It was impractical to have people keep driving at low speeds.

"With our current technology, it's almost impossible to achieve a full evasion rate." Ye Lingchen rubbed his nose, not dwelling on that point. "You've run into a dead end. You don't have put such a situation into consideration. Whatever the technology, it's impossible to perfectly avoid something unexpected."

"All we need to do is to avoid accidents happening under regular driving circumstances."

If something popped out from the road, especially when one was driving on the highway, even god won't be able to help them avoid it. That was just unrealistic.

"Let me have a look at the backend programming," Ye Lingchen instructed.

He gave it a look and made some changes to the programming. "The highest speed limit on the highway is 120mph. We will set 130mph as the limit. Use this speed as the standard and adjust the maximum distance for the safe braking distance."

The so-called safe braking distance referred to the braking distance that would not bring harm to the driver while not running into the vehicle in front of it.

Once within that distance and the driver was unable to apply the brakes, the car would then automatically reduce its speed.

"Test it on 130mph," Ye Lingchen instructed.

Vroom!

The car started once more with the barrier placed sufficiently far away from it.

At 130mph, the car turned into a blur. After that, without applying any mechanism, the car automatically reduced in speed and finally stopped half a meter before the barrier!

"This will do."

Ouyang Qing smiled. Although they had only added a compulsory safety feature, she believed that this feature will surely be well received. After all, under certain circumstances, that feature can save lives!

Nobody could guarantee they could stay fully alert all the time while driving. Should one miss a pedestrian or car in front of them, that would be a major accident!

"That's not enough." Ye Lingchen shook his head. "The situation on the road is unpredictable. Most of the time it's not stationary objects, but moving cars instead. We need to continue adding improvements based on this foundation."

Predictably, once this technology matures, it would be celebrated by many. Any normal person would place their safety first and install this system on their car.

When that time comes, he would be able to make money and earn a round of popularity points. What a bargain.

Ye Lingchen was celebrating internally.

Very soon, Ouyang Qing began to take the reins of the project and immediately started a meeting to go through all the possible situations and ways to prevent them. Meanwhile, Ye Lingchen took out his phone and started to check out the trending news.

Within that time, Ouyang Qing shot a few glares at Ye Lingchen. However, he was the boss and she could do nothing about it.

Staring at his phone, Ye Lingchen frowned. He did not expect the news he read about the Stick Nation that morning would gain so much traction.

With Hyun-Min Kim ranting after returning to the Stick Nation, along with the celebrity restriction order on them, the few big-shot local celebrities from Hyun-Min Kim's entertainment company banded together to make a statement expressing their anger regarding Hyun-Min Kim's mistreatment!

Add to that the Stick Nation's media adding oil to fire, it triggered the hornet's nest. Many of Stick Nation's fans immediately went berserk, getting more triggered as time passed. The incident of Stick Nation's celebrity being plotted against was blown out of proportion and immediately made it to the local headlines! After which it extended its reach overseas.

Moreover, because Miracle Doctor Y's rabies cure was recognized by the International Medical Association, the people of Stick Nation grew even more frantic.

[Everyone should be treated as equals. Why aren't you letting us have the cure to rabies? We're not convinced and strongly disagree!]

[It's too dark. This is bullying. Not only are you plotting behind the scenes, but you're also now banning access to medication?!]

[The rabies cure is obviously our national inheritance. It belongs to our country. You thief!]

[Our country is placed at the top ten of the world's rabies cases. Miracle Doctor Y, you're an executioner, you cold-blooded killer!]

[Injustice! We want the rest of the world to be the judge!]

…

Ye Lingchen scoffed. These people are growing frantic. After seeing Miracle Doctor Y being firm, they started to twist the truth and win the sympathy of the world to reach their own goals.

'Such an unrepentant bunch. Is it that hard to admit a mistake? Now you're trying these despicable means. What a joke.'

Moreover, the news spread extremely quickly, with the potential to make it become world news.

Ouyang Qing finally could not resist it any longer and leaned over. She frowned and stated, "This data seems abnormal."

"I noticed it this morning. A lot of foreign IPs rushed in, the majority of them belonging to the Stick Nation," One of the employees of Wanrong Technology interjected. There were all internet experts.

"The number is even greater than this morning. It's already over 100 thousand IPs by now. Terrifying!" stated a person sitting in front of the computer with a serious expression.

"With so many random IPs, something will surely go wrong," Ouyang Qing stated. After that, she gloatingly shot a look at Ye Lingchen. "President Ye, you need to be careful from now on. The Stick Nation's people hate you with a passion now. They might just come for your life."
