Obviously, Lu Yuxin's decision was not what Wang Yufei expected, which made Wang Yufei a little unsure of how to deal with his girlfriend's sudden burst of self-motivation.

It's a bit of a bad time for me to be self-motivated.

Yes, undergraduate graduates, graduate students or something, how can there be a quantum brain project important.

In the next quantum research laboratory, Lu Yuxin is the most suitable partner.

It's not just a matter of competence, it's also a question of trust.

Say a thousand, say ten thousand, or Wang Yufei's social circle is too narrow, and there is no partner who can be trusted unconditionally.

The original talent gap can be solved through recruitment.

However, the level of secrecy set by Wang Yufei in his heart for the quantum brain project is very high, especially in the early process, the theories he analyzed, as well as those equations, may not be so easy for others to understand.

If this is also the reason why Wang Yufei did not plan to build a quantum intelligent brain directly in the quantum research institute.

This equipment is not the same as the Xin system.

He can design the kernel by himself, and after the underlying logic, he will directly hand over the rest of the work to Gu Bingjun's subordinates.

However, the production and manufacturing of Quantum Intelligence Brain requires him to work closely with the R&D team from beginning to end.

If you really invite those industry leaders, then the whole work process will probably be a million whys.

That would be a frustrating thing.

So whether it is Senior Brother Cao, the senior brothers and sisters of the Brain Machine Club who have a quiet personality after all, or Lu Yuxin are naturally the most suitable candidates. Their trust in Wang Yufei is naturally the highest, and they only need to listen to the command in all actions, and they can naturally complete Wang Yufei's ideas as quickly as possible.

Wang Yufei, the initial quantum brain, does not require much high performance, only needs to make this quantum brain run continuously like a classical electronic computer, and can solve general problems according to the algorithm, which proves that his thinking is completely correct, and then he can naturally rely on this achievement to directly recruit relevant talents.

At that time, there will be no more doubts, and everyone will upgrade the quantum intelligence brain step by step according to his ideas. He will only need to think about security, not trust.

Therefore, at the beginning of the construction of the quantum laboratory, the laboratory really needed Lu Yuxin.

......

So on the way back to the dormitory, Wang Yufei said to Lu Yuxin very seriously: "Yu Xin, have you ever considered that learning should be put aside first, and let's support the big project of quantum brain first? ”

"Are you really confident in the bet with Google?" Lu Yuxin did not directly answer Wang Yufei's question, but asked with his head sideways.

"Of course!" Wang Yufei said confidently.

This is the courage that the brain gave him. If you want to get close to the occult, it is probably an ability similar to prophecy, which makes Wang Yufei feel that if he does what he conceives, as long as he can work hard to solve the process problem, he will definitely create the most advanced quantum brain in the world.

If not, it must be that the manufacturing process is not up to the requirements, but according to his understanding of the performance of those high-end devices these days, the current process level is enough to support the Quantum Intelligence Project.

See, self-confidence is that simple.

Lu Yuxin continued to ask, "But there is still a shortage of people?"

Wang Yufei nodded, it is indeed a lack of people.

"What kind of people are missing?"

"Like Senior Brother Cao, he just likes to work hard and think on his own, although his personality looks a little wooden, but he has strong hands-on ability and can take charge of himself. Wang Yufei described it in detail.

"Oh, it's about the same as you?" Lu Yuxin nodded in understanding.

Wang Yufei didn't think this comment was right.

Wang Yufei felt that he was still very different from Senior Brother Cao. For example, the senior brother who is about to stand up for a long time doesn't dare to speak when he sees the girl he likes, but when he first saw Lu Yuxin, he already dared to ignore the attitude of rejecting people thousands of miles away, and immediately sat next to her.

But before Wang Yufei could open his mouth to argue about this issue, Lu Yuxin continued: "There is a top student in our class named Shi Xulin, I think he can perfectly meet your requirements. I'm not sure if you can convince him to join the project, though. ”

"Huh, he doesn't seem to have applied to join the Brain Machine Club before?"

"In fact, he is not a member of any club for the time being, because he currently thinks that the club is very naïve. If you have that time, you might as well do the questions. ”

Lu Yuxin's words made Wang Yufei a little interested in this boy named Shi Xulin.

"Oh, how are you doing with him? Tell him to come out for a cup of tea?"

"I don't have a good relationship with my classmates, but if you really want to ask him out to talk about it, it's more likely that you will come out and ask him out. ”

"Why?"

"Because you proved the twin prime conjecture, he has always admired you. ”

"Then why didn't he join the Brain Machine Society?"

"Didn't he say that? because he thought the clubs were boring. Worshipping you and joining the Brain Machine Club are two completely different things in his opinion, just as worshipping you and accepting your leadership are two separate issues. So even if you come forward to invite him personally, he may not agree. But at least there is a chance. ”

Lu Yuxin explained in a good time.

This explanation made Wang Yufei feel very good.

I have the feeling that I adore you, but I have nothing to do with you.

"Do you have his phone? Now ask him out for a seat?"

"There is no phone, but WeChat has been added to the class, and I will push it to you. ”

"Good!"

......

Redmond, Washington, USA.

Located on the edge of the greater Seattle district, this city is known for its frequent bike races and is known as the cycling capital of the northwestern United States. Of course, the city is often mentioned because the headquarters of Microsoft and the headquarters of Nintendo in the United States are in this small city.

The fact that Microsoft chose to build its headquarters here, rather than being rooted in Silicon Valley like other large companies, is particularly historical.

For example, Microsoft's founders, Bill Gates and Paul Allen, are both Seattle-natives.

The 86-DOS operating system, the operating system that allowed Microsoft to take off, was also developed in Seattle.

In addition, although Microsoft's headquarters is in Redmond, when you zoom in to the entire Seattle area, there is also a lot of high-tech in this area. In addition to Microsoft, there are also Boeing, Amazon and other top technology companies are also rooted here, and the scientific research atmosphere is also strong.

And Microsoft has just spent billions of dollars renovating its entire headquarters.

Of course, the leap in modern technology has also allowed these large companies to communicate with each other as quickly as possible without having to get together.

Video calls are even faster than face-to-face calls, and can be made anytime, anywhere.

All in all, it was good to stay in Redmond.

But today, for the first time, Microsoft's executives decided that it would be nice if the company was headquartered in Silicon Valley.

If the natural physical distance could have been brought closer, the situation would not be so bad now.

It feels almost isolated.

Yes, there hasn't been any good news for Microsoft lately.

It is no exaggeration to say that any bit of progress made by Ge Lingyue in the international arena is rubbing salt in Microsoft's wounds.

On several occasions, the board of directors has not been able to negotiate measures that will actually come into play.

For the Xin system, it can only be on the defensive for now.

However, when Google, Apple, these traditional allies have joined the Xin System Alliance, this also means that Microsoft's natural allies will support the future layout of the Xin System outside the scope of China, which puts Microsoft in an extremely disadvantageous situation.

A special meeting was convened in such circumstances.

There are not many people, but the specifications are high.

In addition to the current Microsoft President Brad Smith and CEO Satya Nadella, there is also a legend, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, the former richest man in the world and the man who single-handedly created the Microsoft empire.

True, today's meeting even alarmed the spiritual leader of Microsoft.

From this, we can roughly judge Microsoft's worries or fears about the Xin system.

Of course, both Brad Smith and Satya Nadella are now facing an extremely complicated situation.

If the Xin system is just an open source system similar to Linux, everyone will stand on the same starting line and compete fairly, or it will not be as tricky as it is now.

But in this year, everything has gone too fast.

First, the brain-computer chip was born, followed by the Xin system that can perfectly fit the brain-computer chip.

The tech sector has always been a winner-takes-all situation.

It's like Microsoft in the past, by always making a lot of money one step ahead of others, and then on the basis of winning, it continued to invest in research and development to have everything it has now. Although in the era of mobile Internet, it was overtaken by Apple and Google, but this could not shake the status of the PC boss, and even the current cloud services and servers are still doing well.

Because of this, the emergence of Changxiang technology makes him more vigilant.

Because even Brad Smith, who is not technically savvy, sees the report from the technical department and is aware of the situation that Microsoft is facing.

If it could, Microsoft would even be willing to give up the entire Chinese market, in exchange for enjoying technology and not coveting markets outside China. But now the situation is obvious, Ge Lingyue took the initiative to attack, starting from Korea Island to Europe and the United States, it is said that he will go to Japan Island on the return trip, and visit the semiconductor companies on Japan Island to seek the possibility of cooperation, which also means that in the near future, Microsoft will face off with Xin System in its main battlefield.

This is the last thing Microsoft wants to see at the moment.

If it is destined for a decisive battle, it will have to wait at least a year later.

At this time, the right time, place, and people are not on their side, and this battle cannot be fought.

......

The closed-door meeting of the three of them began very dullly.

After a brief greeting, Satya gave Bill Gates a report on the Xin system made by the technical department, along with a report on the Chinese market and a user survey report commissioned by a third-party company.

All three reports are not encouraging.

In fact, if you have to find fault, Microsoft still has some ways to deal with the Xin system.

For example, patents.

It can be seen from the report of the technical department that Xin System actually plagiarized many patents of Windows.

For example, double-click the mouse to open the program.

Yes, it is such a small operation, Microsoft has also applied for a patent, patent number 6727830, specifically described as: "the method of making an application run through hardware buttons within a certain period of time, including clicking, double-clicking or dragging, etc." ”

Of course, in fact, Microsoft's patent layout naturally cannot be so superficial.

The patents of the real operating system core layout are the most deadly.

But the problem now in front of Microsoft is that the kernel of the Xin system is not exactly the same as those patents that Microsoft has laid out before, such as the patent sequence is 13/685018, a patent that uses hashed names to quickly find file names.

It stands to reason that as long as the operating system can't get around this patent, even the Android operating system.

But another filename retrieval service that Xin makes use of through the macro language is embarrassing for Microsoft.

According to the preliminary report of the technical department, for the time being, there is no questionable problem in the kernel part, and it can only be defended by operational methods, and if all American technology companies are on the side in the past, Microsoft can also use this to block the attack of the Xin system.

But now that Apple and Google are on the side of the Xin system, this trick is not very good.

Bill Gates looked at the documents carefully, but his expression was relatively relaxed.

After half an hour, the founder put aside a stack of screened documents, rubbed his eyes and asked, "You know? Actually, I tried the Xin system before I came, and although I didn't speak English very well, it did have a new feeling of using it." In particular, the entertainment translator is simply fantastic, I used this software to translate a short segment of "The Great Gatsby", you know? Our computer translation content is not the same as the director's filming, there is an absurd and thought-provoking flavor. ”

Hearing this, Brad and Satya glanced at each other, and then duly remained silent.

"Okay, are our allies just falling into the trap? If I were you, we'd have to reconsider our relationship with Google and Intel. Bill Gates asked, shrugging his shoulders.

"Actually, we can't get them right now. We are also working together to develop a new generation of our brain-computer chips, which is a difficult task that requires unity, and we need this technology even more than Intel now. Only then will we be able to make the next generation of products work perfectly with this new hardware. Google also helped us by opening up a lot of code and patent libraries. These will help us make the next generation of products even better. Satya said.

Indeed, although the technology companies in Silicon Valley do not seem to be doing very well at the moment, they are sparing no effort in supporting the technology.

This also made Brad and Satya hate these so-called ally companies, but they had to accept each other's kindness.

Of course, this is also devastating.

Look, brother, it's not that we don't help you, but we've all been so partial to you, and you still can't help you, so you can't blame us!
