"A lifetime of use."

Everyone still didn't believe it, but seeing that Chi Mingyu said it so seriously, they were a little confused.

Could it be that this kid is really so powerful?

Thinking that Chi Mingyu usually doesn't like to joke, it has already reminded everyone twice at this time, and I can't help but be a little suspicious.

"Okay, okay, don't keep staring at Director Zhang, today I asked Director Zhang to come to visit our real room."

"Director Zhang, I'll introduce you."

As he spoke, Chi Mingyu gestured and made a gesture of please.

"Director Zhang, what we've been working on recently is a search engine. However, since the search engine is a relatively large program. Not only does he have strict requirements for the code, but also because the search engine is facing all the Internet sites in the world, he also has high requirements for all aspects of the server. You see, this is our beta version of the search engine, and we haven't named it for the time being......"

While walking, Chi Mingyu introduced Zhang Ning to him.

Zhang Ning walked to the computer, typed a few words casually, and tried it out.

"How?"

Ji Mingyu was looking forward to Zhang Ning's evaluation.

"It's not bad, at least it's not worse than easy search."

At present, there are two major search engines in China, one is Yishou, and the other is Baidu.

However, hearing this answer, Chi Mingyu didn't seem to be satisfied, "Yisou's engine technology is very average, I think, even if it is stronger than Yisou, it doesn't have much effect." I'm more optimistic about Baidu, and its founder, Robin Li, is very thoughtful and professional in search engine technology. At the same time, Baidu is said to be already working on fuzzy search. ”

"Baidu, I'm also very good-looking."

In later generations, Baidu was the largest search engine in China.

Although Baidu is not as good as Google, at least, in the Chinese market, Google is completely defeated by Baidu.

"Well, there seems to be a problem here."

Zhang Ning chatted while visiting.

Suddenly, after Zhang Ning used their search engine several times, Zhang Ning suddenly noticed a problem.

"There seems to be something wrong with this directory index."

Pointing to the searched web page, Zhang Ning said.

It's just that when Zhang Ning said this, Chi Mingyu was excited, and said with some excitement, "How do you know?" ”

If it weren't for the fact that Chi Mingyu really knew Zhang Ning just now, he really thought that Zhang Ning had read the source code of their search engine. But in fact, Zhang Ning only came here today, not to mention the source code, even if it is the interface system, Zhang Ning is also using it for the first time.

Of course, it was precisely because Zhang Ning came for the first time that Chi Mingyu was shocked again.

"Hehe, you see, the arrangement of the results you searched for must have a problem with the algorithm of the catalog index. If not, you won't be able to search for these jagged pages. ”

This question is too obvious, blurted out, Zhang Ning said.

It's just that Na Ning's sentence shocked Chi Mingyu even more.

Of course, it shocked the members of the real room on the side.

They had always sensed that the search engine they were studying had a problem with directory indexing. However, they have not solved this problem. Unexpectedly, Zhang Ning just looked at it casually, and only looked at the user interface, and he found the problem of their search engine's "catalog index".

I really don't know if this kid is a demon or if their search engine is too rubbish.

"Admire, admire, Director Zhang, I, Chi Mingyu, really admire you this time."

Although the short contact time was not long, in such a short period of time, Zhang Ning had already shaken Chi Mingyu.

Even if Chi Mingyu is a professor at Yan University, at this time, in addition to admiring Zhang Ning, he still admires it.

"Excuse me, I don't know if Director Zhang has a solution to this problem."

Just when everyone was surprised, a doctoral student with glasses and a little withdrawn looked at Zhang Ning and asked.

"You don't know, we've been struggling with this one directory indexing issue."

This doctoral student is called "Qi Fang", and when Chi Mingyu introduced Zhang Ning, Qi Fang kept staring at Zhang Ning.

Intuition told him that this young man must not be simple.

Sure enough, it was only a little later, as soon as Zhang Ning used their search engine, he found the problem.

Moreover, this problem is still under the fact that Zhang Ning did not look at their source code.

This kind of technology has exceeded their imagination.

I don't know why, Qi Fang stood up and asked about Zhang Ning.

"What's your name?"

Zhang Ning turned his head and looked at the somewhat withdrawn doctoral student.

"My name is Qi Fang."

Qi Fang is not good at words, and he is a little timid, and what he said just now is already his most daring action.

At this time, when I saw Zhang Ning looking over, I instinctively flinched.

Although Zhang Ning didn't have any idea to show his skills just now, at the same time, he didn't want to show anything. In his heart, he has always been like this, if others don't believe it, they won't believe it, what does it matter to him, he knows what he is, and it's okay. Therefore, even if everyone was suspicious, Zhang Ning was calm and didn't say anything at all. It's just that when he saw this doctoral student named Qi Fang, Zhang Ning saw a trace of respect and a trace of desire in his eyes, so he didn't think about it anymore, and said with a smile, "You asked the right person." ”

"I haven't looked at your code, but there must be something wrong with your indexing algorithm. If you don't bother me to look at your source code, I'd love to talk to you. ”

"This ......"

Qi Fang couldn't be the master, and looked at Chi Mingyu.

Chi Mingyu said briskly, "Hehe, it's just a small search engine source code, what can't you see." ”

This is just for Zhang Ning.

Because Chi Mingyu thinks that with Zhang Ning's technology, will he still steal your source code program?

I'm afraid that, in his eyes, the source code written by his group seems to have been written by kindergarten children.

Of course, if someone else, or another company, says anything, Chi Mingyu will not let others watch the source code.

This is not stingy, but the source code of a software is equal to the process of making a software.

If the source code is shown to others, then others can copy an identical piece of software.

The answer to why Microsoft's operating system has not been open to the public is that after it is disclosed, Microsoft may go bankrupt directly.

Chi Mingyu commanded, and let one of them open the search engine code program they had been writing.

Zhang Ning looked at it, and in less than a minute, he pointed to the 17th line of code and said.

"There's a problem with the number here, there's an extra value, you can remove it and take a look."

As a result, when Chi Mingyu was removed and realized again, a miracle occurred.

The directory index, which had always been problematic, became no longer a problem after removing a value.

The rest of the matter becomes simpler.

When Zhang Ning showed his hand, the entire real room boiled.

It turned out that they still didn't believe it, and even had a trace of suspicion about Zhang Ning. However, in the past few minutes, everything has disappeared. They really know that they have met a genius. Yes, geniuses who are more geniuses than them.

"Director Zhang, may I ask, how to solve this problem."

"Coach Zhang, when the search engine includes major websites, what do you think?"

"Coach Zhang......"

As soon as the visit ended, it ended under the continuous consultation of everyone.

It wasn't until 8 o'clock in the evening that Zhang Ning got out.

"Professor Chi, I didn't expect that you guys are also working on a search engine, do you want to launch your own search engine?"

"No, we're just doing technical research. Besides, we don't understand the operation of the Internet. The best thing to do is to be able to work with Internet companies. However, we now have a lot of problems, one is the technical aspect of artificial intelligence, and the other is the problem of funding. ”

Artificial intelligence technology, Zhang Ning expressed his understanding.

The program he wrote actually used artificial intelligence, of course, it was only semi-intelligent, or even semi-intelligent. However, even semi-intelligent technology is among the world's top technologies in this era. If semi-intelligent search is used in search engines, then he can definitely get rid of other search engines completely. Just like fuzzy search, without a semi-intelligent search engine, he can't complete fuzzy search. Without fuzzy search, he greatly discounted the efficiency of the search engine.

It is a pity that computers started late in China, not to mention artificial intelligence technology, which few people have mastered in China.

It's just that there is a problem with technology, and Zhang Ning still understands it a little, but Zhang Ning can't figure it out about funding.

"Professor Chi, you are doing research at Yan University, are you not enough to fund?"

"Haha, classmate Zhang, Yan University has so many real rooms, this one needs to be studied, and that one needs to be developed. Although Yan University has a relatively large amount of R&D funds every year, it is not much if each real room is divided into one point. What's more, now that the Internet is so low, the school has not given us too much funding. ”

"Oh, I see."

Hearing this, Zhang Ning couldn't help but have some intentions.

Zhang Ning has always had the idea of entering the search engine market before, but the reason why he didn't enter. In addition to the lack of time, there is also a key reason why search engines in particular need technology. Don't underestimate that a search engine seems to be a website, you search for it, and it will reflect a lot of content for you. In fact, many of his programs, many of his calculations, are in the search engine company's servers, and he is in the background. That said, this again involves cloud computing. As for the fuzzy search function mastered by Zhang Ning, this is just a relatively cutting-edge technology in the search engine, and there are many, many more than fuzzy search.

With such a huge search engine, it is impossible for Zhang Ning to complete it alone.

At this time, when Chi Mingyu said that there was a problem with funds, Zhang Ning secretly thought, "If you invest in Chi Mingyu's real room by yourself, this is an opportunity to enter the search engine market." ”

Thinking about it, Zhang Ning asked, "I don't know, how much does it cost to develop a search engine." ”

"Most of our search engine has been developed, of course, most of it, but this half is the easiest. The latter will involve artificial intelligence, and the requirements for servers are relatively large. Previously, we applied for a research fee of 30 million, but it ran out quickly. Later, I estimated that it would take about 100 million yuan for us to truly complete a semi-intelligent search engine. ”

"100 million RMB?"

Zhang Ning couldn't help but be dumbfounded, "Nima, this research fund is too much." ”

Although I have more than 100 million yuan of my funds on hand, this is through Penguin Technology.

It's just that I thought if I missed this one opportunity. Although Zhang Ning also has a plan to enter the search engine market later, even if it is later, Zhang Ning also has a way to fight with Baidu. But if it is at that time, I am afraid that the invested funds will not be a small 100 million yuan, even if it is 1 billion yuan, it will not be enough.

Without thinking about it anymore, Zhang Ning asked directly, "Professor Chi, what do you think if it is funded by Penguin Technology?" ”
