After leaving the hotel, Joseph and others arrived at the Institute of Automation of the Chinese Academy of Sciences by car and began to have a meeting with Fang Jinhong and others to exchange views.

On the first day, there were nearly five hours of meetings, all about artificial intelligence and robotics.

On the second and third days, under the leadership of Zhou Yi and accompanied by Fang Jinhong, Joseph and others visited the laboratory of the Institute of Automation, and then went to the Institute of High Energy Physics, the Institute of Optoelectronic Technology, the Nanoscience Center, the Institute of Microelectronics, and the dust-free workshop of Huajia Innovation Company and other scientific research institutions, laboratories, and factories.

In the afternoon of the third day, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Science and Technology, and Yanjing SW came to visit for some time with Joseph and other experts.

After the visit, Zhang Hanwei, a bigwig of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said with a smile: "This Zhou Yi is good, he is neither humble nor arrogant, and he is quite organized in handling things, he is a good seedling." ”

When Fang Jinhong heard this, his face trembled slightly, and he coughed lightly and said to Zhang Hanwei: "Zhang Bu, I'm afraid you misunderstood." ”

"Misunderstanding, how do you say that?" Zhang Hanwei said with a smile.

"That, in fact, Zhou Yi is not a human ......"

"It's not just Zhang Hanwei, but several other bigwigs are also confused, looking like you're teasing me, what is he not human?"

In order to keep it secret, only a few people from Tan Jianhua and the House of Elders knew about Zhou Yi and others being the team leaders this time, and these bigwigs didn't know about it.

The boss of the Ministry of Science and Technology laughed: "Academician Fang, you are laughing, Zhou Yi is not a person, so what else can he be?"

"Zhou Yi is a robot ......," Fang Jinhong replied.

"Huh?" the bigwigs looked stunned.

Zhang Hanwei's eyes showed a glint of excitement, and he hurriedly said: "Robot!Academician Fang, this, this is true?"

Fang Jinhong nodded and said, "Yes, it's true, in front of you, I don't dare to joke, right?"

The boss of the Ministry of Science and Technology said: "We believe in you, but, how is this possible, the tone and demeanor of the young man Zhou Yi when he spoke were clearly humans, how could it be robots, this is incredible......

I remember half a month ago, I read a research report on your robots, but didn't it say that the accuracy of the parts was not enough, and even the basic robots could not be built?

Why is it that only half a month has passed, and this kind of robot that is exactly the same as a human has been created, is it because the content of the report is wrong?"

Fang Jinhong replied with a wry smile: "There is no mistake, the robot we are studying has indeed encountered a bottleneck, but the bionic robot like Zhou Yi is not developed by us, but a black bone ......."

"Black bones? I guess there was a lot of excitement about this last year. ”

"The fullerene device is indeed the signature of the Black Bone Company, but their AI technology is the real leader in the world. Fang Jinhong admired from the bottom of his heart.

The boss of the Ministry of Science and Technology nodded and said: "According to what you say, Academician Fang, then this is really a great enterprise, first there are fullerene devices, and now there are AI and robots, which is really giving us a long face! ”

After saying a few words about topics related to the Black Bone Company, the bigwigs of the Ministry of Science and Technology and SW left away, but Zhang Hanwei of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stayed behind and asked Fang Jinhong:

"Academician Fang, the experts of the five countries, they haven't had trouble so far, right?"

Zhang Hanwei is one of the responsible persons for the visit of the expert group of the five countries to China, although he has no director, he has been paying attention to the situation in this regard, and at the same time, he also knows that the other party is not good at coming this time.

Fang Jinhong replied: "Not yet." ”

Zhang Hanwei: "It's the third day, and the places that should be visited have been visited, and they haven't made a big deal yet...... It should be impossible to give up against us, only to show that they have a bigger plan than we imagined. ”

Fang Jinhong smiled: "There will be a meeting tomorrow, and the news media people from various countries will come to attend, I guess they should want to make a fuss in the conference room."

If we had put it before, we would inevitably have panicked emotions, but now with the existence of bionic robots such as Zhou Yi, no matter how they plan, they are just clowns jumping and can't be put on the stage. ”

"Also, Zhou Yi, such a young man with such a voice is actually a robot, if it weren't for knowing Academician Fang, you wouldn't lie, and you wouldn't joke about such things, I wouldn't believe it anyway. ”

When Zhang Hanwei thought of Zhou Yi, he settled down a little and smiled with emotion.

……

After today's trip, the tour basically ends here.

After the expert group of the five countries returned to their residence, Joseph immediately asked a conference room to be prepared and invited the leaders of the experts from the other four countries to come and gather.

The expert of the Japanese team leader was named Takeo Murakami, the expert of the German team was Minsky, the British team was George, and the French team was called Alfrey.

All four of Murakami's students studied in the United States and speak English, so even if there was no interpreter present, there was no difficulty in communicating.

In the conference room, several people greeted each other and sat around the table.

The French expert Alfre, who appeared impatient, could not wait to express his opinion:

"Let me start with my opinion. I remember that more than a year ago, the matter of AI was in an uproar, and I could often see news about Huaxiaqiang's AI technology breakthrough in news reports.

But after coming to China this time, we have traveled all the way to many places, but we have never seen any amazing strong artificial intelligence technology and achievements. ”

George, a British expert, took over and said, "That's right, what Professor Alfrey mentioned is exactly what I am concerned about. ”

Japan's Takeo Murakami said: "I have a different opinion from the two professors, Huaxia's attainments in strong AI software technology are leading the world, there is nothing to doubt about this, from the game "Girlfriend" launched by Black Bones, you can know a thing or two. ”

Alfrey frowned when he heard this, and said in an unkind tone: "Professor Murakami, are you helping the Huaxia people to speak? Don't forget the goal of our trip." ”

Takeo Murakami chuckled: "I'm not helping the Chinese people to speak, I'm just stating a well-known fact, when we talk about certain issues, we will always only look at its disadvantages and ignore its advantages."

But personally, I don't think that's a good thing.

It is obvious to all that the Chinese people's attainments in strong AI software technology surpass the world, and we don't need to avoid this issue, because we can't avoid it. ”
