Chapter 49: The first generation of underwater drones
"Mr. John, come and try this Mengding tea." In the top-floor office of Blue Ocean Technology, Su Chen made a cup of tea and handed it to the foreign old man next to him.
Su Chen had just come back from Dubai when he heard that there was a crooked nut waiting for him, and he got to know him, this old man's name was John Augustine, a wealthy British man, and he heard that he owned a lot of industries in London.
John, who has gray temples, is about sixty years old, and he is very stylish in a suit, and the gentleman picks up the teacup and takes a sip: "The taste is fresh, rich and sweet, good tea." Eyes narrowed in enjoyment.
Su Chen took a sip of tea: "The authentic Mengding mountain tea was a tribute to the royal family back then. ”
"The Chinese tea culture really lives up to its name." John praised.
Su Chen smiled lightly, it has been five thousand years in China, and it is not only the tea culture that is famous.
"Boss Su, I'm here to auction the shipwreck this time, I don't know if you can let me take a look at it first." John said with some excitement that he has been obsessed with shipwrecks in recent years, and has always wanted to collect one, but unfortunately there is no suitable target, and when he heard that there was an auction in Huaxia, he immediately flew over.
Su Chen frowned, shook his head and said, "Mr. John, I'm afraid this is not in accordance with the rules." "I haven't heard of a lot before an auction.
"Boss Su misunderstood, I'm only interested in shipwrecks, I don't want treasures or anything." John hurriedly waved his hand to explain.
Ha? Su Chen looked at John suspiciously, he didn't want treasure, just the shipwreck, what did he want it to do with this rusty thing.
"Mr. John, I'm sorry, I can only wait until the auction day to watch it." Just kidding, if you were to see it first, what would others think.
"Then I'll just wait a few more days." John didn't leave the company until he finished his tea.
After sending John Suchen to the eighteenth floor, he took the elevator to the eighteenth floor, and as soon as he stepped out of the elevator, he saw the hanging sign next to him 'Blue Ocean Intelligent Voice Assistant Operation Team'.
"Not bad." Almost a week after leaving, Xi Yi also successfully formed a software operation team.
Most of the software is managed by Beibei, so the number of people needed to operate is not large, only fifteen.
is also composed of a group of energetic young people, I don't know if Xi Yi did it deliberately or what, the whole team is all girls, and it is also a women's army.
Su Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly, if this momentum continues, the company will sooner or later flourish and the sun will decline, don't let the male compatriots have no heart to work.
The team leader is a bespectacled girl with a double ponytail, named Ren Nian. Seeing Su Chen, the little girl shook her double ponytail and ran over: "Hello boss." ”
"Well, how are the preparations?"
"The major app stores have been edited, and you can start the internal test at any time, and then put it on the shelves." Ren Nian held the briefcase and looked at Su Chen with big eyes and cuteness, with a face full of admiration.
Su Chen's face turned red when he was seen: "Then start the internal test in three days, in addition to the one thousand in the comment area, nine thousand will be randomly distributed." ”
"Don't forget the propaganda work, do a good job, and strive to be on the public beta on the National Day."
After explaining, Su Chen turned around and left, came to the nineteenth floor, and gathered the four team leaders for a small meeting.
"Let's talk about where we are." Su Chen sat at the head and knocked on the table, and said lightly, without much expectation in his heart.
The four people who sat down were full of excitement, and Ma Gao couldn't help it first, and said happily: "Boss, we have researched it." ”
Su Chen was stunned, and the hand that knocked on the table seemed to be pressed by a big stone, and he couldn't lift it.
looked at Ma Gao in surprise and said incredulously: "So fast? ”
Even if there is a complete technology, it is very difficult to develop it in a week.
Ma Gao scratched his head: "In fact, it is not a successful research and development, this is just a first-generation product, and there are many loopholes." ”
Yan Yu took out a white sample from the R&D room, which was different from the drone flying in the sky.
The power is four small propellers at the four corners responsible for the ascent and dive, and then there are two barrel-shaped propellers behind the butt, which look like an airplane engine.
The camera is a simple probe, with 12 million pixels, only to find out after asking, it is actually a monitoring modification, which can be rotated up and down, left and right, and then there are LED lights on both sides of the probe.
The entire underwater drone rack is made of special plastic, which is very rounded, in order to better avoid water resistance.
The weight is not light, more than 30 catties, and the body shape is about the same size as an ordinary remote-controlled steamer.
Su Chen was not disappointed, and happily encouraged everyone: "Although there are many loopholes, being able to do this within a week is enough to prove your strength." ”
"The drone also needs to be transformed, and the power setting has great defects, if the power switch is not timely, the drone will roll in the water, and this isolation net, it is easy to get caught in the aquatic weeds."
"The camera can be changed to a dual probe, one above the rack and one below, both of which require translational rotation, so that you can observe the entire underwater environment, and when the time comes, it will be perfect with VR rotation."
"Also, the frame design is too simple, the underwater drone will definitely dive very deep in the future, you can't stop the pressure, you can try to change to alloy materials."
"Also, what type of battery is it?" Su Chen raised a lot of loopholes and problems that needed to be improved in one go.
Everyone is not discouraged, after all, the time is too short, only a week.
Ma Gaoying, who was in charge of the power, said: "The lead-acid battery can be used for three hours for the drone. ”
"That's not good, it's too bad, don't care about the cost, you want the quality, give me a better one." Lead-acid batteries are all old batteries, the danger factor is too high, and the weight is heavy.
After a pause, after everyone finished digesting it, Su Chen said again: "Upgrade these problems first, and I'll bring you chips in a few days." ”
"Also, the recent news that the company is going to test artificial intelligence internally, do you know?"
Ximenjing, who had a sad face, said lightly: "I know some." "Everybody is busy researching these days, and his task is heavier, which is to ask for a VR camera. I only know a little bit about the news about artificial intelligence, and I still hear it from the mouths of the beauties downstairs when I commute to work.
Su Chen touched his chin: "I plan to change the artificial intelligence, and then install a copy on the underwater drone." ”
Artificial intelligence is suitable for a variety of fields, air conditioners and refrigerators can be installed, why not change it to install a copy of the underwater drone.
In this way, the intelligent underwater drone can be piloted autonomously, and it can automatically turn when it encounters obstacles, just like Su Chen's submarine.
"Oh~" Ximenjing has no strength to say, and he still doesn't have a thorough understanding of the company's artificial intelligence.
Su Chen smiled and said: "Okay, the bonus will be doubled this month, you continue to study, and I'll go to the factory to have a look." ”
