112: The number one trending search?
Regardless of whether they believed it or not, the scene that unfolded below explained everything.
On the screen, the drone, which was suspended with twenty kilograms, was remotely controlled to fly upwards. This action happened almost instantaneously.
Then the drone quickly flew backward, the whirring wind deafening the ears of those watching the large screen.
Are Dragon Country's drones this advanced?
Everyone found it hard to believe, but after the drone dropped the satchel charge onto the pursuing soldiers, people had no choice but to believe it.
"Haha, we Blue Team won this military exercise!" A military officer stood up and shouted loudly after seeing the pursuing soldiers covered in blue powder from the explosion.
In this winter military exercise held by Great Bear Country in the mountains, with red and blue teams opposing each other, the Blue Team was the first to use the Xiaohang Drones issued by Headquarters, and after a week, they finally achieved victory.
The Captain in the command center praised the Xiaohang Drones profusely: "The Xiaohang Drones issued by Headquarters this time are fantastic! Although the manual states they are long-distance civilian drones for disaster relief, they are by no means inferior when used in a combat scenario. For a week, I remotely controlled it to communicate with my soldiers, deliver food to them, and scout enemy movements, without ever worrying about insufficient battery life."
While some cheered, others were dejected: "We should have won! We could always detect the Blue Team's movements with wireless trackers. Who would have thought we'd lose to a drone! A drone made in Dragon Country! Headquarters also issued us Xiaohang Drones, why didn't I use them!"
It was too late to regret it now.
"The most impressive thing about this military exercise was the Xiaohang Drones! It is truly the top-tier military drone currently available," the highest commander at Headquarters said with emotion.
"I suggest increasing the procurement of Xiaohang Drones and equipping every basic unit. Eighty thousand units aren't enough, one hundred fifty thousand should be about right," the commander said loudly, his voice impassioned and his expression exhilarated.
They didn't know that the footage they were watching had already been copied by spies and was starting to be played in military Headquarters around the world.
The whole world was searching for the manufacturer of the Xiaohang Drones.
At the same time, the Xiaohang Drones sold during the previous live broadcast were also going viral online.
Aerial photography enthusiasts posted their aerial shots from the Xiaohang Drones online, attracting tens of thousands of views.
A video of a drone enthusiast using a drone to buy breakfast also made everyone very interested in the Xiaohang Drones.
And the footage of the Great Bear Country military exercise that was circulated online shocked the entire internet.
...
How could Liu Xiaolin at this moment know about the earth-shattering changes happening in the outside world?
He was busy tallying the final order summaries at this moment.
"General Manager Liu, hurry and go online!" Rong Yiwang rushed back into the office and shouted loudly.
"Look at what?" Liu Xiaolin was startled.
"Our Xiaohang Drones are trending number one online!" Rong Yiwang said.
Liu Xiaolin opened his computer and was stunned by the posts under the number one trending topic.
"World-Class - Xiaohang Drones!"
"Civilian Drone? A Hundred Times More Powerful Than Military Drones!"
"Can't Believe Such a Magnificent Documentary Was Filmed With a Xiaohang Drone!"
"Obscure Xiaohang Drone? This Time It Should Be World Famous!"
...
Liu Xiaolin looked at the posts about the Xiaohang Drones, completely dumbfounded.
When he saw the footage of the Great Bear Country military exercise, he finally understood that it was they who had made the Xiaohang Drones a world-class drone!
But the Xiaohang Drones he produced were clearly civilian drones, so how did Great Bear Country end up using them as military drones?
Does this count as infringement?
"What's going on? The Xiaohang Drones we produce are civilian in nature!"
"How could they be used for military purposes?"
Liu Xiaolin felt very uneasy.
When he opened another video, the first image he saw was a line of text: Xiaohang Drones, currently the top-tier drone suitable for warfare.
"What's happening? Isn't this nonsense? The Xiaohang Drones we researched and manufactured are for civilian use! How can they disregard our product manual and arbitrarily change the use of our drones?" A chill ran down Liu Xiaolin's spine; he felt this was not a good thing.
When Liu Xiaolin finished watching the full military exercise video, he was stunned.
In the vast white snow, the drone dropped satchel charges onto the enemy's position, blowing them up and covering them in blue, resulting in their complete annihilation.
"My Xiaohang Drones were actually used by them like this?" Liu Xiaolin was very uneasy.
He was just an ordinary civilian drone manufacturer. If it got out that he was arbitrarily producing military drones, it would bring a lot of trouble to the Xiaohang Drones.
How could Great Bear Country buy his civilian drones and then change their intended use?
He also knew very well that his drone's capabilities were too powerful; whether it was flight speed, flight altitude, or endurance, they were all top-tier, and its load capacity was also unparalleled.
Great Bear Country actually used the load capacity of the Xiaohang Drones to remotely control satchel charges; this was too unexpected.
The Xiaohang Drones, which were obscure in Dragon Country, actually became famous worldwide!
Is this what they call "a flower blooming inside the wall smells fragrant outside"?
But this kind of 'fragrance' is a bit scary!
Although the reputation of the Xiaohang Drones has greatly increased, its intended use has been changed!
What should I do?
"This wasn't our original intention when developing the Xiaohang Drones, and what others do after purchasing them is none of my business," Liu Xiaolin told himself.
As long as he stuck to his development philosophy in Dragon Country, there shouldn't be any trouble.
At this moment, after the previous video finished playing, a new video automatically popped up.
It looked like a follow-up to the military exercise video.
In the video, a soldier with an excited expression on his face shouted loudly: "Thanks to the Xiaohang Drones, it saved my life, otherwise I would have frozen to death in the mountains."
"Yes, Dragon Country's Xiaohang Drones are really great!" another soldier said loudly, giving a thumbs-up.
"The Xiaohang Drone is the best drone in Dragon Country, a must-have military drone for the army!" a person who looked like a leader also shouted loudly.
After watching this video, Liu Xiaolin couldn't sit still. He jumped up and turned off the computer.
"These people are talking nonsense, utter nonsense!"
"Our Xiaohang Drones are clearly professional civilian drones for disaster relief!"
"What is Great Bear Country trying to do? If you keep talking nonsense, I'll refuse to sell you any more drones!"
Although the videos from Great Bear Country had brought huge attention to the Xiaohang Drones, he did not want the Xiaohang Drones to be repurposed as military drones.
After all, the drone market in Dragon Country was his target.
So, he immediately asked Shen Zhiyong to draft a statement, reiterating in the statement that the Xiaohang Drones are civilian drones!
However, the rumor that "Xiaohang is a military drone," which had been a trending topic online for a day, drowned out this statement.
Some people even mocked it in the comments below the statement.
"A civilian drone that can carry twenty kilograms of explosives? Do you think I'm stupid?"
"A civilian drone can cost fifteen thousand? Do you think I'm stupid?"
"You can say whatever you want, we won't believe it even if you talk until the sky falls!"
