Chapter 060: Serious Nonsense
Three days later.
The venue of the conference of the partners of Dao Technology Company.
Hundreds of reporters gathered in the venue, and among them, in addition to the black-haired and yellow-skinned Chinese, at least a third were blonde and blue-eyed foreigners.
As for these foreign counterparts, domestic reporters are also whispering.
"Brother Zhou, you have been following our domestic science and technology news for a long time, have you seen so many foreign reporters?"
A young reporter asked a senior next to him.
"Hey, don't say that there are so many foreign journalists, I haven't even seen foreign journalists."
The middle-aged reporter called Brother Zhou shook his head, "Don't look at the CEOs of those rice and wheat mobile phone companies now, one by one, they advertise themselves as the second Jobs, but abroad, their products can't even make waves, and they want to see foreign reporters at their press conference?" Let's go in the next life! ”
"Lao Zhou is right."
At this time, another reporter interjected, "Don't say that you have always talked to few foreign journalists in science and technology news, even I, who have been following current affairs news for a while, have never seen so many foreign reporters at provincial government press conferences." ”
"Really?"
The young reporter couldn't help but be stunned: "Could it be that this Xisheng translation software launched by Zhengdao Technology Company is so good?" ”
"Niu Niu B, it's not up to us to have the final say."
Lao Zhou patted the young reporter on the shoulder, "If you look at the big bosses sitting in the first row, you will know whether it is bull or not!" ”
The young reporter subconsciously glanced at the bigwigs who were sitting in the first row and talking to each other: the CEOs of the three major companies of BAT were all present at the scene, as well as Mr. Lei of Xiaomi Mobile, Mr. Ren of Huawei Company, and even the three major domestic operators Mobile Unicom Telecom have sent vice presidents......
In addition to these domestic bigwigs who can cause an earthquake in the industry by stomping their feet, there are several foreigners who are also eye-catching, namely the president of Google in China, the president of Microsoft in China, the president of Apple in China, and the overseas president of Facebook......
In addition to the bigwigs of these technology companies, there are also a large number of key leaders of major investment companies.
"This is really the Oscar of the IT industry......"
The young reporter couldn't help but sigh.
At this moment, the lights of the venue suddenly dimmed, and then the background screen on the rostrum lit up, and Wang Xiao walked up slowly from the side of the stage.
Wow~Wow~Wow~~!!
When Wang Xiao came to the center of the stage, before he could speak, the Chinese people in the audience spontaneously applauded for him!
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!"
Wang Xiao had a confident smile on his face, "I am very honored to thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend the first collaborator conference of Zhengdao Technology, I believe that this is the first time, but it is by no means the last." ”
Hearing this, everyone in the audience couldn't help laughing.
Wang Xiao also laughed and said: "Before I really want to introduce the content of this press conference, I want to talk to you about some gossip. ”
"I think all of you here must have heard of this theory, the 'Six Degrees of Connections Theory', which is very interesting, it basically says that all people on the earth can connect with anyone else through a chain of acquaintances within six layers."
"Or in layman's terms: you can't have more than six people between you and any stranger, that is, you can know any stranger with a maximum of six people."
"Interesting, isn't it?"
Wang Xiao looked at the vice president of Facebook and smiled: "I think Mr. Vaughan Smith must be very familiar with this theory, because your company was established based on this theory in the first place. ”
Hearing this, Vaughan Smith in the audience smiled and gave Wang Xiao a thumbs up.
"Now we all know the theory of the six degrees of connections, but what is the basis of the theory of the six degrees of connections?"
Wang Xiao suddenly asked.
After a pause, he asked himself: "I think it is based on the most basic human emotion - identity, and anyone living in this society will want to be recognized: children want to be praised by their parents, students want to be praised by teachers, and couples want to be loved by their other half......"
"Everyone wants to be recognized, so what can people do to be recognized?"
Wang Xiao's eyes were full of confidence: "After modern scientific research, I think it's communication!" ”
"Only through guò communication will parents know their children's wishes, teachers will know students' desires, and lovers will know the hearts of their other half."
"Communication is the most important thing in the world!"
Wang Xiao waved his hand vigorously and said, "Without communication, our entire society will no longer exist!" ”
Speaking of this, Wang Xiao's tone suddenly changed: "I think there must be people below who are dissatisfied with my remarks, 'Oh, what are you talking about, it's the Internet era now, we can connect with people on the other side of the world through guò broadband in an instant'...... Someone must be thinking that, right? ”
However, the people who have these ideas are definitely young people, because they have grown up with the Internet, and they have been exposed to the Internet early, know a lot, and are familiar with the use of the Internet...... But what about the elderly, the old people who don't even know how to use their mobile phones? How do you get them to connect with someone on the other side of the world in an instant? ”
Wang Xiao asked aggressively: "They don't know the Internet, they don't know the computer, and the mobile phone is just a big watch for them, ...... And how do you communicate with other people? ”
Hearing Wang Xiao's question, everyone in the audience fell into deep thought.
Wang Xiao first picked up the water cup and took a sip of water, and then said loudly: "Language, it is language that allows them to communicate with other people!" With the exception of those who are unable to speak because of their physical disabilities, the way everyone communicates with everyone else is through the medium of guò language! ”
"You may not be able to access the Internet, you may not be able to use a computer, you may not be able to operate a mobile phone, but you will definitely use the language!"
"But...... Is that all it takes? ”
Wang Xiao once again threw out a question, "Do you know how to use language to be able to communicate with other people without barriers?" No, obviously not, because 90% of the world's people can only communicate with other people in one language throughout their lives, and they can only smile when facing foreign friends. ”
Saying that, Wang Xiao made a stupid smile on the stage, which made everyone in the audience laugh.
After everyone finished laughing, Wang Xiao raised his voice fiercely: "But now it's different!" ”
"It's completely different with the Hope software!"
Wang Xiao said in an impassioned tone: "With the Cyscent software that can support more than 18 languages around the world, you can communicate with more than 80% of the world's people without barriers!" ”
"Yes, trust me, we can do it!"
Wang Xiao pointed to his chest and said: "We can do it with Dao Technology Company, and Xisheng Software can do it!" ”
"Good!"
"That's great!"
"Well said!"
Hearing Wang Xiao's resounding words, everyone in the audience couldn't help but cheer for Wang Xiao.
After the cheers gradually subsided, Wang Xiao said: "I think everyone must be a little skeptical, why can you do it, why can a game company of yours make such a perfect translation software?" ”
"Of course, this issue involves our company's highest level of confidentiality, so I can't tell you everything, but I can reveal some ...... to you."
Hearing Wang Xiao say this, everyone's ears in the audience pricked up, and they looked at Wang Xiao with expectant eyes.
As Wang Xiao said, any company in the world is puzzled that Daodao Technology can launch such a perfect translation software.
Seeing everyone's eager eyes, Wang Xiao's stomach was about to burst with laughter, where he had any secrets, all of them were controlled by the incarnation outside his body, but Wang Xiao must not say this.
Therefore, he said in a serious way: "In fact, our translation software is so perfect mainly due to two things. ”
Wang Xiao stretched out a finger: "First, our company has developed a new type of search engine, whose only role is to automatically and continuously scan different languages on various websites around the world and classify them statistically. ”
Immediately afterwards, Wang Xiao stretched out a second finger: "And the second reason, and the main reason, is that we have invented a new algorithm!" ”
"A whole new algorithm?"
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
"Yes, a completely new algorithm that is perfectly suited to parsing languages!"
Wang Xiao said nonsense with a stern face: "This algorithm can find the rules in the large number of languages, and then distinguish the best semantic explanation, and use the results of search engines to translate them perfectly!" ”
In fact, strictly speaking, what Wang Xiao said is not nonsense, because language is a kind of science, different words, different sounds will make people have different fantasies, activate different cells of the human brain, and produce different nerve conduction, which are all regular to follow.
Moreover, in the sea of inheritance, Wang Xiao once learned that in fact, there is really such a universal language translator in the universe, when wearing this universal language translator, don't speak the different languages of intelligent life such as human beings, even with animals, you can communicate without barriers!
However, compared with this almost fantasy explanation, it is obvious that people nowadays are more willing to believe in the explanation of the new algorithm mentioned by Wang Xiao, because in reality, some scientific research institutions have explored and studied this, but there are no results yet.
"Okay, after all this gossip, I won't delay everyone's time anymore, now, let's move on to the first topic of the conference!"
Wang Xiao saw the sudden expressions on everyone's faces, and said with a smile.
