Chapter 174: Thunderbolt Zero

With a bang, he put the thing wrapped in foam anti-collision material in his arms on the ground, Atletico turned around and closed the car door, and said to Lin Jiwu Fang Zhanping, who came to greet him: "The protagonist is always the last to appear, but fortunately he is not late." ”

"This is the robot, Thunderbolt Five?" Fang Zhanping looked at the tightly wrapped mass on the ground, and he really couldn't connect with the smart robot Thunderbolt 5 in the movie.

"Of course not, just a similar-looking replica. There's no real artificial intelligence yet," Atletico said, untying the plastic rope that was fixed on the outside, "and the current battery technology is also very scummy, so you can only let it run for a few hours before you have to recharge." ”

As the plastic rope was untied and the foam cloth wrapped around the outside slid off, the silver-gray metal body of the Thunderbolt 5 replica began to reveal little by little.

Fang Zhanping took half a step forward curiously, reached out and touched it and knocked it, and the muffled voice showed that it did not have a steel body.

Seeing his strange expression, Atletico explained: "Of course it's a plastic shell, painted with metallic paint. Thunderbolt Five's mantis-like body with tracks, all made of metal, how heavy would it be if it were all made of metal?"

"Lao Mei set the development of science and technology too high when she first filmed "Thunderbolt Five", and as a result, 20 years have passed until now, and she has not been able to make a real Thunderbolt Five. Although there are military robots now, they are basically remotely controlled for mine clearance and searching, and the weapon system will not choose lasers, because the battery cannot be moved. ”

Finding the hidden switch, Atletico pressed and activated the robot, only to see it straighten up from its bent arms, its iconic two metal eyebrows slightly upturned, and its nimble head turned around, looking like the robot in the movie, Thunderbolt Five.

Lin Jiwu stared at the "Thunderbolt No. 5 replica that was curiously looking around" for a long time, and muttered, "It doesn't feel right." ”

"It's kind of not like that. As soon as he said this, Fang Zhanping also responded, and the replica of Thunderbolt 5 in front of him did look very similar to the robot protagonist in the classic movie "Thunderbolt 5" at first glance, especially the silver-gray metallic shell and the two big eyes and two eyebrows, but looking down at many places, it was different.

"It has changed a lot of places, the mechanical arm has been changed to a hydraulic type with a simpler structure, the chassis with crawlers and steering wheels has been directly replaced with eight wheels, and the body is wider and taller than the original, so it is possible to stuff a larger capacity battery into it. ”

The place where the three of them are standing at the moment is in front of an Internet café called Space Station No. 1, which was brought by food and agriculture when they invested in Bee Technology, and is located near Ludao Railway Station, with a good flow of people.

On the premise that the food and agriculture side took the initiative to lower the requirements, the two sides quickly reached a shareholding agreement in early April, and Bee Technology used 30% of the shares to acquire the furniture factory in the industrial development zone and the medium-sized Internet café with 400 computers.

The furniture factory is still gradually renovating its workshop to make it a modern electronics factory, and this Internet café, which was originally in average business because of old machines, will reopen during the May Day Golden Week after half a month of renovation and rectification.

After the investment in food and agriculture, the future Jiajing company represented by Atletico Madrid still occupies an absolute controlling position with more than 60% of the shares, but the company has more Fang Zhanping, a shareholder representative, and some other personnel stationed in the food and agriculture side, and the overall control is still in the hands of Atletico Madrid.

The replica of the robot Thunderbolt 5 brought by Atletico Madrid today is for the performance of the opening ceremony that awaits us.

It climbed the stairs with ease under Atletico's remote command and entered the foyer of the Internet café, where the undercarriage on eight wheels performed quite well.

The half-human-tall robot entered the Internet café, and the buzzing sound of wheels immediately attracted a lot of attention.

"What is this?"

"Isn't this Thunderbolt Five?"

"It should be fake, right?"

"It looks so flexible. ”

"I remember that the Thunderbolt 5 should not be two big tracks, how did it become a wheel, the degree of restoration is not good!"

"That's right! I remember that Thunderbolt 5 had a rectangular cylinder on its back that was a laser, and what it had on its back looked like a bicycle suitcase!"

"Everyone, yes, I'm Thunderbolt, Zero!" the onlooker robot shook its metal eyebrows and uttered its first line of the day in a mechanical synth-style voice.

"Oh, can you talk, I don't know if you can talk?"

"You, think, know, what?"

"What will you do?"

"Run, recharge, deliver, punish, sin!" Robot Zero answered everyone's questions one by one.

"Hahaha, just your little body, hahaha, let me laugh a little longer!"

"I, yes, lasers, weapons, can, punish, crime!" With the voice, two green lasers suddenly shot out from Zero's shoulders and shone on the wall, showing two green peach heart patterns.

"Flutter! hahahaha!" At this moment, the onlookers couldn't hold back any longer, and they leaned back and fell back and fell back and forth by its serious behavior.

Unlike the original Thunderbolt Five, which usually had an upright "exit facing the sky" and needed to be raised to point it at the target in front of it, the laser in Zero's hand was pointed directly in front of it. Inside, there are actually two sets of green laser pointers, the power is quite small, even if it is directly into the eye, it will not cause harm to the eyes.

The reason why the green laser pointer was chosen instead of the more common red laser is that green looks a little more "safe" than red, and on the other hand, because the green laser has better visibility.

When light passes through a transparent medium, such as air, it will be scattered by colliding with the air, with blue-green light being scattered the most and red scattering being the lightest.

The reason why the sky is blue is because sunlight is scattered by air molecules, and the air throughout the sky emits (in fact, reflects) blue-green light. The reason why the sunrise and sunset are red is because the other colors in the sunlight are scattered by air molecules and water molecules, and the red, orange, and yellow components that are not easily scattered in the light that shines on the clouds are the most.

Therefore, in daily life, the light emitted by the red light is the least likely to lose energy due to scattering and has the strongest penetrating power, while the green and blue light is easier to scatter and can be used to show the optical path of the laser. Many optical experiments choose to use green lasers because they leave an optical path in the air due to Rayleigh scattering for easy observation.

Atletico looked up at some customers sitting in the Internet café that had opened for trial operation, turned his head and asked Lin Jiwu, "How is it?"

Lin Jiwu nodded excitedly and said, "Very good! Many customers were stunned! Some people complained that the price was too high." ”

"The price must not be reduced, and it is better to give free experience cards and send points lottery gifts than to reduce the price. Whether our No. 1 Internet café can become famous depends on the price and configuration of the first in the country. ”

"You, you!" Fang Zhanping was speechless when he heard it beside him, Atletico Madrid is good at everything, but he is a little too picky, not that he is reluctant to spend money, he always tries to choose a more cost-effective plan.

For example, the Thunderbolt Zero he built, the visual cost is definitely tens of thousands, or even 100,000 is possible, just the cost of the bunch of fine transmission mechanisms above can drive a QQ car back, but he didn't think about saving money on this.

After the redecoration, the No. 1 Internet café of the space station not only replaced all the computers with the network computer system provided by Bee Technology, but also overturned and redid the entire decoration style. The outside hasn't changed much, except for a large sci-fi-style space station on the exterior wall. Originally, Atletico Madrid planned to hang a model of the space station on the roof or wall as a signboard, but Fang Zhanping vetoed it three or two times, and there was a typhoon on Ludao Island in summer.

The new design uses a large number of metal and sound-absorbing and fireproof materials, and the ubiquitous LED lights and display screens make the color of the Internet café not too monotonous white, and at the same time full of technology.

The space station Internet café implements a membership system, and the membership card uses an inductive IC card, which stores the membership number, password, name, photo, ID number, recharge balance, membership points and other content.

Many merchants provide a membership point system, but unlike those merchants who spend a few hundred yuan to give away points that are only enough to change a towel, the membership points of the space station Internet café are definitely the most affordable. This is actually a compromise measure.

Atletico Madrid's purpose is very clear, to build the space station Internet café into the country's first-class Internet café, equipment and hardware Atletico Madrid has complete confidence can be said to be the country's first-class, but in terms of software, the business atmosphere can not be 100% certain, after all, the atmosphere is mainly determined by the customer.

On the one hand, the Internet café has also carried out hardware construction, installed a high-power air filtration system, and divided the smoking area separately, and at the same time, the goods sold in the snack area are specially selected, and the goods that are easy to leave pollutants such as cigarettes, melon seeds, betel nuts, and chewing gum are not sold.

On the other hand, they have also introduced a system of rewards and punishments for customers, and Atletico Madrid originally planned to cooperate with the urban management and city appearance department to fine uncivilized such as spitting and throwing garbage. But this "naïve idea" was quickly criticized for being incomplete, and finally had to compromise and become a point system.

Although the points come from consumption, they belong to the space station Internet café, and the Internet café has complete autonomy to give or deduct user points in accordance with the user agreement.

There are three eye-catching prompts at the door of the Internet café:

1. Landing on space requires good health, and minors, drunk and other people with abnormal behavior will not be accepted.

Second, the cost of space tourism is high, and the consumption of this Internet café is 10 yuan to 30 yuan per hour.

3. This Internet café is equipped with network monitoring, please pay attention to the civility and law-abiding words and deeds.

Originally, Atletico also planned to hang a portrait of Stalin on the door, and write the sentence "Big Brother is watching you!" (from the novel "1984"), but this brain-opening idea was also cut off, and finally became a very soft sentence "Please pay attention to your words and deeds, be civilized and law-abiding." ”

Different from the price of other Internet cafes for more than three yuan, the basic price of one hour of Internet access in the space station Internet café is as high as 10 yuan, and users can also "safely overclock", independently adjust the configuration of the client, and get a more enjoyable game experience, of course, the price will increase accordingly.

For clients that are essentially virtual machines, the performance of their emulated hardware depends entirely on how many server resources the server administrator puts to the virtual machines. Theoretically, the performance of the client can soar to the same height as the server in the computer room, of course, at this time, all other clients will be stuck, so the maximum "overclocking" of the client can be "overclocked" by 200%. In fact, because the initial configuration is already a luxury configuration that only has 10,000 yuan brand machines on the market: 3GHz dual-core processor, 2G memory, 800MHz+256MB graphics card, plus the high price, it is expected that there will not be too many customers who are really "overclocked".

"There are also customers who say if they can reduce the configuration and then reduce the price. Lin Jiwu continued.

"What did you say?"

"According to the rules of the Internet café, I told him that everyone is responsible for supporting energy conservation and environmental protection, and the Internet café will give him points. ”

"Yes, it is better to give free experience cards and give points lottery gifts than to reduce the price. This time, it was Fang Zhanping who repeated what Atletico had just said.

Atletico Madrid, who is less than 20 years old, can understand the truth, how can he not see that he is good after a long time in business?

Originally, he was a little worried about Atletico Madrid's concept of setting the price at 10 yuan and building the country's most high-end Internet café, but after the new computer system of the Internet café was installed in place, he became confident after using it himself.

Thinking of this, Fang Zhanping turned his head to Atletico and said, "Atletico Madrid, your appearance recharge system is fine, right? Don't make jokes at that time, but it will be embarrassing." ”

"This is something that I have been experimenting with at Egret University for more than half a year, and it is very mature, and it is reasonable to ensure scientific guarantees. ”

Fearing that the overpriced price would lead to a lack of customers at the beginning and the opening would be too sluggish, Atletico Madrid prepared a lot of opening events to gather popularity.

Wait for the opening ceremony of the leader ~ guide speech is one, although the leader ~ guide speech can not attract popularity, but the speech of the tourism bureau leader ~ guide nodded but can let the tour guides of Ludao and tourists mention the space station No. 1, the country's best Internet café.

Then there's the public performance of the robot Thunderbolt Zero, which will attract popularity and highlight the high-tech positioning of the space station's Internet café.

Then there are all kinds of long-term discounts, such as the "face recharge, face online" activity, they have specially divided the activity area next to the bar, customers only need to stand in front of the "beauty recharge machine" for three seconds, and the system will score their appearance (minimum 60 points, full score of 100 points), and then each point is equal to 0. The proportion of 1 yuan is recharged to the customer's membership account, and you can "recharge with your face" once a day, and you can get a minimum of 6 yuan for Internet access, and a maximum of 10 yuan.

In fact, this is essentially the same as other Internet cafes arranging one or two hours of free membership in the free time in the morning every day, compared to the space station Internet café is even more picky, even if it is a big beauty and a handsome guy, you can only get a gift of up to ten yuan. The only good thing is that the credit is valid for up to one week and can be used cumulatively.

This "beauty recharge machine" itself is an all-in-one computer with a touch screen, equipped with a high-resolution camera, as well as Atletico Madrid's specially created face recognition software, which can automatically identify the identity of members, and members can handle some personal business by themselves in the robot. The appearance scoring function is actually just the entertainment function that comes with it, and the first thing to put out is to set off the popularity, and the second is to further test the effect of face recognition software, after all, he conducted an experiment on the Luda "Face King" website before, and most of the participants are school students, and the age distribution is too single.

"Science, not necessarily, I've seen 65 or 66 a few times this morning. ”

"Isn't this a six-six shun?" Atletico sneered, of course the algorithm of the software is no problem, but in order to highlight the entertainment effect and avoid hurting some people's glass hearts, the system has been specially adjusted, the scale is obviously relaxed, and at the same time, the actual score of users below 64 points, the displayed score is actually "60 + original score / 10" and then rounded, so that many people who look average can get a score of 65 or 66. The miserable 60 points have not yet appeared, and in fact, Atletico Madrid themselves have never seen a peerless ugly person who can be judged by the system to be in the tenth or twenty points. But he did see it through software simulation, and then he locked it at 60-90 points.

When the belated leaders~ directors finished their speeches and were invited to the hotel for a working meal by Fang Zhanping, Atletico Madrid controlled his Thunderbolt Zero and walked onto the stage outside the Internet café.

Naturally, Thunderbolt Zero can't perform war skills like the Thunderbolt robots in the movie, and its lasers don't have that ability, so Atletico Madrid has prepared a dance project for it. Zero first turned around on the stage, made an appearance, and then said: "Everyone, okay, I am, Thunderbolt, Zero, civil, Thunderbolt, series, machine, man, today, I perform, dance, someone, willing, come up, dance with me, a song, a song?"

As soon as the voice fell, the beautiful female dancer who had been prepared for a long time walked up to the stage, reached out to hold Zero's mechanical hand, and danced with it to the sound of music. Because of its height and weight, it can only make some simple movements such as reaching out and turning in circles, and complex dance postures cannot be done at all. But even so, their dance still attracted a lot of applause.

After the dance, Zero clumsily bent down to thank the beautiful women who danced together, and then said: "Come down, I, will, for, everyone, send, drink, welcome, come, my home, as a guest!"

Its "home" is naturally the "Space Station No. 1" Internet café behind it, so after getting the drink that the robot Zero "hands" received from the cold drink machine, many people choose to take a few more steps to this Internet café that is claimed to be ten to thirty yuan an hour to have a look.
