Chapter 882

At the same time, Tony Bloom took the team to Brazil; they were about to set foot on the Amazon jungle known as the lungs of the earth. It must be a difficult journey as they need to keep going. While testing the driving conditions of the car on the muddy road, the communication system should also be tested in an all-round way.

The Amazon rainforest is located in the Amazon Plain of South America, covering an area of 5.5 million square kilometers. The rainforest spans 8 countries: Brazil, Colombia, Peru, Venezuela, Ecuador, Bolivia, Guyana, and Suriname, occupying half of the world's rainforest area and 20% of the global forest area. It is the largest tropical rainforest with the most species in the world. The Amazon rainforest is known as the "lungs of the earth" and the "green heart".

Among the 441 new species discovered by the Amazon expedition were: 258 plants, 84 fish, 58 amphibians, 22 reptiles, 18 birds and one mammal.

The Amazon rainforest contains the richest and most diverse biological resources in the world, with millions of species of insects, plants, birds and other creatures, many of which have not been scientifically documented yet. Among the lush vegetation are a variety of tree species, including myrtle, laurel, palm, acacia, cocobolo, brazil, and rubber. Mahogany and Amazonian cedar are excellent woods. The main wild animals are jaguars, manatees, tapirs, red deer, capybaras and many rodents, as well as a variety of monkeys, known as the "Kingdom of Animals and Plants in the World".

It can be said that this is a mysterious place, and few car factories dare to come here to test new cars. Only Bao Zixuan has such boldness, I don't know if it's a tiger or just overconfidence. In short, under his order, Motorola communications engineer Tony Bloom and his team are feeding mosquitoes in the Amazon jungle.

Yes, it is to feed mosquitoes, and it is still a mosquito with a size beyond imagination.

In fact, before entering the Amazon jungle, Tony - Bloom felt that the task should be easy.

Li Changjin, head of Heiyun Auto Brazil, greeted them personally and received instructions from the group headquarters; the highest standards met the testers, even though most of them were from Motorola.

Li Changjin was born in Hong Kong and entered Bentley after graduating from Cambridge University in the UK. After ten years of working at Bentley, he has reached the ceiling of Chinese migrant workers. After Heiyun knew about this time, he reported the matter to Bao Zixuan.

Knowing the whole story, the richest man Bao came forward to chat with him in person. At that time, two places were given for him to choose, Black Cloud Auto Brazil or the head of the Huaxia region. Unexpectedly, he actually chose Brazil, which many people could not understand at the time.

Everyone knows that Bao Zixuan values the Chinese market, and he will definitely have a promising position in the future. It was not until everyone learned about Li Changjin's true thoughts that they had to admire his choice.

In Li Changjin's view, although the group and the boss of Heiyun Automobile Huaxia Branch value it more. But it is difficult to do much in a short period of time, after all, China's economy is not very ideal. In addition to policy restrictions, it is impossible to plan factories according to their own ideas.

Brazil does not have these problems, Emperor Tiangao is far from saying. And it is mainly aimed at the European market, which makes Li Changjin, who has worked at Bentley for more than ten years, very handy.

The group may least value the Brazilian factory, but it is the factory to build it up. To the extent that Bao Zixuan recognizes it, is there anything more fulfilling than this!

Li Changjin gave full support in Brazil, but these are not enough for inexperienced engineers. The climate of the Amazon jungle is too changeable, and many animals in it are not so friendly to humans.

And unlike Saudi Arabia, the Brazilian government is not so enthusiastic about the new Black Cloud military vehicles. Even if they can't afford it, it is better to negotiate the contract of retired military vehicles. In saying that this is a customized product for the US military, the Brazilians are trying to avoid suspicion. There is actually no indication, it can be seen that Laomei is still very influential in Brazil.

Li Changjin arranged for a local guide in Brazil to say to Tony Blom: "Dr. Blom, it's now 120 kilometers deep into the Amazon jungle. It's dangerous to walk inside. I don't know what you are thinking."

In fact, the guide wanted them to go inside, so that he would be paid more handsomely. But there is a limit to everything, and things that are life-threatening can't be done.

Tony Bloom also knew that except for the German woman and Bao Zixuan's own test, the other three parties were more dangerous. You should still take care of him, knowing that the Arctic climate is much harsher than the Amazon. So he said very seriously: "Compared with the purpose of our visit, you know that we must obtain real data in the most extreme environment."

"So I hope you can answer seriously, what is the farthest distance you have traveled before."

The guide knew that this was a real move, thinking of a generous income. So he said without hesitation: "480 kilometers, this is the farthest distance I have ever detected; because the logistical supplies did not keep up, I withdrew it."

In fact, the guide told a lie, he was not the one who probed 480 kilometers. It was his elder brother, but at this time his elder brother was not alive. His reputation is more due to his brother, and his own abilities still have many deficiencies.

Tony Bloom thought that even if he didn't reach 480 kilometers, 300 kilometers would be no problem. The ability to communicate 300 kilometers into the Amazon jungle is also a remarkable achievement.

So he made a decision that he regretted his whole life and continued to move forward to 300 kilometers. Although there are many Heiyun employees, they have already received orders before they come. As long as Tony Bloom does not violate the cooperation agreement and does not leak military vehicle technology to the outside world, they must unconditionally implement their decisions.

So the team continued to move forward, but the more wrong they found. It is obvious that the water volume has increased, and the nearby river has become turbulent accordingly. And this increase is a geometric multiple, which makes the engineering team feel very abnormal.

Under the repeated assurance of the guide, the team continued to move forward.

In fact, this is also related to the inexperience of the guide. The seasonal rainfall of the Amazon River causes the Amazon River and its tributaries to frequently flood. In the rainy season, the average depth of the river is 40 meters, and the width is 38 kilometers on average. It starts to rise from November until the next year. June, and then fall back to October. Its tributary, the Negro River, does not fluctuate at the same time as the main stream. The rainy season starts in February or March and rises to June and begins to fall back with the main stream. Another tributary, the Madeira, ebbs and flows two months earlier than the mainstream.

During the rainy season, the Amazon floods hundreds of thousands of square kilometers, and the flood depth is in some places 12-15 meters higher than the lowest water level in the dry season, 6 meters in the vicinity of Iquitos and 15 meters in the vicinity of Tefu; It is 11 meters near Obidos and 4 meters in the Parra River.

If you are an experienced guide, you would not dare to set out with an engineer who has not undergone any professional training. Especially in this season; know that the physical fitness of engineers can't keep up with ordinary people; entering is equivalent to dying. At this time, the economic situation in Brazil was very bad, and the guide did not care about it for the money. It was this kind of thinking that finally killed the members of the Heiyun military vehicle experimental team.

Sure enough, an accident happened 180 kilometers deep into the Amazon jungle. It was raining heavily in the sky, and it was still getting bigger and bigger, and it felt like there was no trend to stop at all.

Tony Bloom quickly ordered to rest on the spot, if an experienced guide would definitely come forward to stop it. But this one is good, and also rests with him.

At this time, the convoy was parked in a low-lying place, and this place itself is the only place where the river must pass during the flood season.

Fortunately, Tony Bloom slipped his mind and put two new military vehicles on a high place; it was also the most correct decision on his trip.

In the evening, the rain is getting heavier and heavier. Engineers living in the inner road of the United States may have never seen such heavy rain~www.mtlnovel.com~ It feels the same as the effect of opening the water pipe at home, which brings a strong sense of fear. .

At this point, there was already stagnant water in the camp, and Tony Bloom just didn't know what was going on in the Amazon, and he knew that it wasn't appropriate to stay here for a long time.

Many times, it is not so easy to go, and the material and equipment have been submerged. Fortunately, the accompanying security personnel played a role and ran quickly towards the George Button military vehicle with two test drivers.

The test driver drove two new cars to meet them, but at this time an accident happened; the people in a tent in the low-lying area did not evacuate. By the time the other personnel ran to the heights, they were already flooded.

The two lives left like this, and it may be difficult for even the corpse to find that kind.

After settling in again, Tony Bloom questioned the guide: "Have you never been here before, it's good for you to answer truthfully."

Looking at the terrifying eyes, the guide felt a little flustered. There have been too many mistakes along the way, and it is impossible to hide them.
