422 stream-of-consciousness input

Two billion 8 billion!

Wang Yufei was surprised.

Of course, not because this price is expensive, but because it is too cheap.

The same can be used as a reference for the Microsoft headquarters building.

Construction began in 2008 with a total investment of about 2.8 billion yuan, covering an area of 11,600 square meters, with a height of 80 meters in the south and 18 floors above ground and 4 floors underground, and a 65-meter high building in the north, with 15 floors above ground and 4 floors underground.

Innovation Building is also located in the core business district of Huaguan Village in Beijing, China, with a straight-line distance of only a few hundred meters.

The only difference is that the Innovation Building is not a twin building, but it covers a total area of 13,200 square meters, and it is also designed with four underground floors, with an above-ground part of 88 meters high, and a total of 20 floors.

According to the data, the construction of this building began in 2003 and was topped out in 2007, and the construction lasted four years. Buying land and building combined, the investment cannot be less than Microsoft's. However, the price quoted by the other party is comparable to the cost of Microsoft's Asia-Pacific R&D building.

It's no longer a matter of sincerity, a clearly loss-making rhythm.

But it's obviously a good thing.

So Wang Yufei said without hesitation: "Then buy it." ”

Ge Lingyue hesitated for a moment and said, "There shouldn't be a problem with this price, right?"

Wang Yufei had some guesses in his heart, but he didn't say it explicitly, he believed that Ge Lingyue probably had similar guesses.

"As long as the formalities are fine. Even if our company is small, the legal department should have no problem reviewing the work, right? ”

"Okay! When the press conference is over, I will negotiate with Mr. Chen. ”

"Yes!"

......

Hanging up the phone to meet Lu Yuxin's puzzled eyes, Wang Yufei said: "The owner of the building rented by Changxiang Technology suddenly contacted Mr. Ge and was willing to sell the building to us. And the price is right. ”

Lu Yuxin blinked her eyes and said, "Because of the Xin system, this is an alternative subsidy?"

Wang Yufei thought for a while and replied: "It is very likely that even if Rongkang Group has a problem now, it should not be in a hurry to sell the property in the capital." ”

Lu Yuxin nodded and said with a smile: "Then it must be! Some people may also think that our company cannot be crowded together with other companies for a long time, which is not conducive to the implementation of the company's various confidentiality work." ”

"Don't worry about that yet. Anyway, it's a good thing, I'll try to see how everything needs to be presented at the next press conference is ready. ”

"Go ahead!"

......

The afternoon press conference has almost begun.

By the time Wang Yufei walked on stage, the audience was full again.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Yufei slowly walked to the center of the rostrum.

In the morning, we mainly introduced the Xin system, and the three software that build an ecology for the Xin system, including minimalist programming, national idols and entertainment translation machines, and macro languages that realize the functions of the Xin system and these software. ”

"During my lunch break, I looked through the statements of many netizens on the Internet, and found that many people were worried that the three software, minimalist programming, national idols and entertainment translators, might make many people unemployed. For example, minimalist programming may threaten the jobs of many programmers, make game companies go out of business, will national idols make the profession of artists gradually disappear, entertainment translators may subvert the entire entertainment industry, and so on, etc. ”

"So I'd like to give some personal thoughts before the official start of the afternoon conference. First of all, from the programmer's point of view, our macro language will provide both text and video versions of the macro language learning tutorial on the official website after today's press conference. In fact, the minimalist programming ecosystem not only has programs designed by our users, but also provides space for professional software developers to play. ”

"After carefully learning the macro language, the software designed through the programming environment of the macro language will have more complete performance and better stability than the software designed with minimalist programming, and there will also be a huge market. In the software market of Xin system in the future, the software designed and uploaded by users will be different from professional software, simply put, the profession of programmer will not disappear, but will be more high-end, and the technical requirements are also higher. ”

"The same is true for the gaming industry, where creativity is humanity's most valuable asset at this stage. The games developed by minimalist programming are only those game companies that completely rely on homogeneous content to fill useless souls. Companies that really do good games with heart, with the help of our macro language, huge material library and extremely complete game engine solutions, will definitely be able to launch more high-quality games. In the afternoon explanation, we will intersperse some excellent applications designed by our programmers through macro language to explain to you. ”

"In the same way, what will be eliminated by the national idol and entertainment translator is only the so-called idol that is produced. Artists who truly conquer people with their works will only be more valued, whether they are screenwriters, directors, actors, singers, talented and hard-working people, no matter how technology develops, they will eventually be able to go wider and wider. I've always believed in that. ”

The above is an official response to everyone's worries about the future, and then we will move on to the afternoon press conference. In the morning, we will mainly talk about the software carried by the Xin system. In the afternoon, first of all, we would like to introduce to you two hardware products developed for the Xin system. The first brain-controlled headset jointly developed by Huaqing Brain-Computer Laboratory and Changxiang Technology. ”

After speaking, Wang Yufei picked up a headset from the display table placed on the rostrum.

The all-black design looks bigger than the average earphone.

Then the headphone cable of the earphone is also obviously thicker than the normal headphone cable.

Compared with ordinary headphones, there is also an extra wire box. Three wires were separated from the cable box, terminated by two USB connectors and a standard TRRS four-piece stereo plug.

After showing the appearance to everyone, Wang Yufei said: "Next, I will show you the functions of this brain-controlled headset." ”

After speaking, Wang Yufei directly plugged the two USB ports into the notebook, then plugged in the headphone parts, and put the earphones on his head, and began to adjust the size at the same time.

"Just like the name of this headset, Brain Control is an external device developed with the brain-computer chip and our Xin system, its biggest function is to realize the direct control of the brain to the computer using the Xin system, to a certain extent, to replace the role of the mouse and keyboard. This includes, but is not limited to, opening and closing the software, using search engines, and text input. ”

There was a burst of exclamations from the scene.

Although when Wang Yufei said the name of this bulky earphone, many people already had similar speculations.

But when Wang Yufei really described it, it still made everyone exclaim involuntarily.

In fact, for many people who pay attention to the cutting-edge information of science and technology, they are no strangers to brain text input technology.

There have been many stories about similar research before.

There's even a special brain text input speed and accuracy competition.

At the World Robot Conference held in Beijing last year, a BCI brain-controlled robot competition and the third China brain-computer interface competition were held. It is to ask people to bring a non-invasive brain-computer interface device called EEG cap, and cooperate with the brain-computer interface algorithm to input ideas.

The winner of the contest will be able to input nearly 700 bits of content per minute, which translates into nearly 50 Chinese characters.

However, those who have followed this game know that it is said to be the input of ideas, but in fact, it is not the same as imagining the input of Chinese characters directly in the brain, but with the help of a paradigm called SSVEP.

Under this paradigm, the characters that appear on the computer screen are encoded at different frequencies, and when the contestant wears an EEG hat to look at the flashing characters on the screen, different frequencies bring different visual stimuli to the vision, thus generating different brainwave signals.

After the brain-computer interface device captures the brainwave signal and recognizes it, it outputs the target character to the screen.

To put it bluntly, this is through a special technical means to enter the prescribed characters.

Immediately followed by the P45 press conference for Huawei, the brain-computer chip launched by Changxiang Technology and Huaqing Brain-Computer Laboratory was launched, which pushed the brainwave output technology forward a big step forward, and at that press conference, Wang Yufei demonstrated the direct use of brain control to input numbers, as well as silent alarm and other technologies.

How long has it been since the hardware that supports the input of Chinese characters was directly released at this press conference?

Even if the hardware looks bigger, it is not convenient to carry, and it must be cooperated with the Xin system, but if you really have a headset to directly control the computer, it still breaks through the imagination of countless people.

Isn't it said in the news that humanity is ten years away from realizing this technology?

Is this a reduction from ten years to half a year?

In the exclamation, Wang Yufei had already put on the brain-controlled headset and woke up the computer equipped with the Xin system.

"Now I will open the Changyou browser officially developed by Xin System. ”

Wang Yufei propped his hands on the display table, put on headphones, looked at the monitor, and the next moment the browser opened automatically.

"Now I'm going to type Xin system into the info bar of my browser. ”

This time there was a little accident, the information bar did not directly appear Xin system three words, but appeared a selection button, 1, Xin system, 2, new system.

"As you can see, our device is not perfect, and a similar situation can occur when entering short words. In addition to determining the text entered by the brain, the system will also match the data in the database, and if there are multiple similar phrases in the database and the system cannot determine them, it will give a choice. ”

"But it doesn't actually take much time, and in general, a person's reaction can be processed in half a second. ”

The voice fell, and the Xin system had appeared in the information bar, and then the browser automatically began to enter the search state, and all kinds of news about the Xin system were neatly arranged.

During the whole process, Wang Yufei did not touch the mobile phone, let alone the keyboard.

Countless people froze, and the expressions of the bigwigs invited below became more serious.
