"The magic mirror technology is used to achieve the effect of virtual surface coverage, with several preset animal appearance modes, and at the same time, it supports projection virtual screens, with a fidelity of more than 95% ......"

Chen Peng fumbled with his hands on the all-in-one machine for a while, and then pressed a rather secret button, and a virtual screen of about 21 inches of liquid immediately appeared above the all-in-one machine, except for the bezel being somewhat translucent, there was no difference between the other and the normal LCD display.

"This hemispherical sensor button can freely adjust the position, size, brightness, bezel blur and other items of the virtual screen, up to 32 inches, and if multiple such all-in-one machines work together, they can be combined to form a giant screen ......"

After a few demonstrations, Chen Peng handed over control to Vanessa. I saw that under her hands, the screen went up and down, small and large, wide and narrow, and sometimes twisted and flipped, which was very interesting.

"Very good, this is a good selling point." Studying the new generation of all-in-one machines in front of her with great interest, Vanessa's face was full of surprise, "So what about the software and hardware?" ”

"In terms of software, it is basically no different from other host computers, and the mainstream operating system and most application software can run normally, and it can also provide the function of running software on a cross-platform simulation. However, since it is not proprietary, the mainstream operating system on the market does not fully exert the performance of the all-in-one machine, if possible, I still think that it is best for us to develop our own exclusive operating system, which can optimize the system resources to the greatest extent. Of course, this is a matter for the future, and now using these is basically enough to meet the needs.

As for the hardware, I have set three grades of basic level, mainstream level and ash level, respectively, against the current three mainstream models on the market, there will be no obvious generation difference in performance. In addition, it provides international standard USB and wireless Bluetooth interfaces, which can be connected to external peripherals such as mice, keyboards, printers, etc., and can be seamlessly connected with various existing peripherals. The Sage Controller can replace input devices such as the mouse and keyboard, and the Lingyu headset can provide a specially programmed set of voice commands to assist in control, and there is also special optimization support for the VR effects provided by the Phantom World Glasses. ”

"I've said it many times, but I'm going to say it again, Leon, you're a genius, a genius in every bit." Vanessa exclaimed sincerely.

"Thanks for the compliment, I'm just putting together what I already have and getting a new package." Chen Peng said modestly.

"No, no, no." Vanessa shook her head, "What I praise is your kind of combined thinking, not ambitious, quick success, every step is very solid, every new technology and every new product can complement each other, influence each other, and have been following a steady spiral development trend......"

"Okay, okay, you've been the president for a long time, why have even the words of praise become so official?" Chen Peng smiled and waved his hand, interrupting Vanessa's praise, "Why don't you praise me when I'm done introducing all the remaining new features?" ”

"Hehe, you continue." Vanessa laughed and slapped him.

"The next thing to talk about is related to the weight of this all-in-one machine. You should have noticed that these all-in-one samples are almost between one kilogram and one hundred and fifty kilograms, although compared to the general sense of the computer host, the Star Ring all-in-one is simply as light as a swallow, but compared to those thin and light tablets, it is much heavier, so in order to make up for this defect, I designed a very special way to carry......"

Chen Peng casually picked up the koala image all-in-one machine at his feet, and then put it on his shoulder, and saw that the limbs of the all-in-one machine immediately hugged his shoulder, and his head leaned on the side of his neck, as if he was really carrying a koala.

"In addition, I have installed three sensors in each mechanical leg, which can ensure that I can climb firmly without hurting the human body, even if I run fast or jump violently......"

While speaking, Chen Peng stood up and quickly twisted his body and shook his hands, only to see that the "koala" was still firmly holding his shoulder, and he did not look like he was shaken off at all.

After watching Chen Peng's demonstration, Vanessa's eyes lit up. Obviously, Chen Peng's design not only makes up for the original weight defects, but also becomes an extremely eye-catching selling point, coupled with the pioneering and unique product design concept, the attraction of young people as the mainstream consumer group of electronic products can be imagined.

"Not only shoulders, but also arms, legs, ankles and other parts can be determined, which is completely up to the consumer according to their own preferences, of course, it is also a good choice to close it and throw it in the backpack." Chen Peng shrugged his shoulders and patted the "koala" on his shoulder, and its limbs were slowly released, and then Chen Peng took it into his hand.

"Actually, I would prefer this thing to be lighter and thinner, preferably like a watch, a necklace, and a brooch, but obviously there is no such technical condition now, but it can be used as a future development direction. Okay, now for the last feature that I think is very good, visual calling, which here is not providing a flat image, but a real real-time 3D holographic panoramic projection. ”

As he spoke, Chen Peng wiped hard in the middle of the all-in-one machine, and a moving plate was pushed open, revealing several card slots, and then he took out a metal card-like thing from his coat pocket and inserted it into one of the card slots, and then restored the moving plate to its original state.

"Because of the cost problem, I made this video call function into an epitaxial detachable part, which can be activated by inserting a chip card, and I can decide whether to buy this function according to my own needs. In addition, I have left a few more slots, and I can also develop the epitaxial function of our Transwarp all-in-one machine in the future. ”

While explaining, Chen Peng took out another watch and put it on his wrist. It is said to be a watch, but it is actually similar in appearance, the surface is a whole square pure black flat crystal plate, and there is no time display or anything else on a normal watch.

"It's a matching display platform."

A light curtain lights up from the surface, and then a three-dimensional projection resembles a mobile phone screen. Chen Peng opened the address book and selected a dial, and a call prompt appeared on the virtual screen in front of Vanessa, and after choosing to accept, he saw that the eyes of this kiki-shaped all-in-one machine shot out a pale yellow light, forming a pyramid-shaped light mask, enveloping her inside.

At the same time, Vanessa's figure appeared on Chen Peng's watch-style display platform, with the same appearance and demeanor, and it changed in real time with her movements.

"This reticle is the visual range, and only in this area will the scene be captured and transmitted. The size and color of the reticle can be adjusted, and the display can also be canceled, and the projection on the display platform can also be enlarged and reduced, and the position can be moved, and the maximum scale can be ...... to the real person"

Chen Peng pointed the surface in front of him with his wrist horizontally, adjusted it a few times, and saw that the projection on the display platform moved to a place about a meter in front of him and magnified to a real scale.

"Actually, there is nothing special about calls, I just further optimized the transmission speed and clarity. The most important thing is this visual holographic projection, now the military or other super technology companies may have similar technology, but it does not have the conditions for complete marketization, and with the technical support of Hyster 3D, I have been able to fully meet the market demand, and it can be seamlessly connected with the fantasy space, using the illusory background of various characteristics in the fantasy space, and finally, the communication object is not limited to human beings. ”

"For example?"

"For example, AI." Chen Peng blinked meaningfully.

After being slightly stunned, Vanessa reacted, and suddenly couldn't cry or laugh. I also praised him for being knowledgeable, not stubborn, and knowing how to adapt according to the actual situation.

She didn't have to look at the next demo to fully imagine that she was replacing her projection in the video call with an AI with a specific person. How different can this be from the previous Shirmel Melia? Isn't it just a roundabout way? There is also the difference between one that can be touched and one that cannot be touched.

"You did it on purpose, didn't you?"

In the face of Vanessa's questioning, Chen Peng just smiled and did not answer.

"Forget it, I should be able to think of it, how can you compromise so easily? But it does make it a little more acceptable for you to do so. Vanessa smiled wryly and shook her head. Starting from AI that is highly intelligent and can interact with humans without hindrance, Lingyu headset that builds a bridge of language communication between AI and AI, mirage series software that breaks through visual barriers, and creates a new virtual world of fantasy space, and finally to the present, this all-in-one machine allows AI to enter the real world, and she has long been psychologically prepared for the current situation by paying attention to a series of development trajectories of her relatives.

She is not worried about whether the product will cause controversy at all, whether it will have a negative impact on the company, in fact, this can only further enhance the reputation of Transwarp Technology, controversy is a good thing, what she is worried about is that as the creator of the product, Chen Peng may be attacked by some people and the media because of this.

"Don't worry, it's okay." Chen Peng patted Vanessa's hand, as if she knew him, he also thought of his loved ones in front of him.

"Okay, if you want to do it, you can do it, there won't be more surprises in the future, right?"

Chen Peng smiled and said: "That's all, I don't have a pocket to another dimension, I can't change it out of thin air, these are all combined after continuous accumulation of technology, and it is only after a certain period of dù that it is combined." ”

"And what about the plants and poor little animals in the hallway outside?" Vanessa glanced at him and said with a smirk, "You don't want to turn them into electronic accessories or metal machines, do you?" ”

"Why not?" Chen Peng spread his hands and said with a smile: "Just kidding, just expand the research field to see if you can inspire inspiration from the collision of different fields, and many fields are actually the same, as long as you use a reasonable combination, sometimes you will get unexpected surprises." The real yàn room where the animals and plants outside are located is very special, and it is an environment similar to space radiation that I have simulated with various instruments. ”

"Like a space seed?"

"It's not too much." Chen Peng nodded, "I call it extroverted active gene mutation induction. ”

"What?"

"The main method I am taking now is to use gamma rays and high-energy protons to mix in various proportions, and then mix a certain proportion of charged high-energy subatomic particles to continuously bombard the cell core of the real thing, and guide the mutant gene impregnation effect......"

After stopping Chen Pengyun's misty explanation, Vanessa couldn't help but hold her forehead with her right hand, and said a little depressedly: "Leon, don't use such a professional term, it will only make me feel that my years in school have been wasted, and it will also make you look more and more like Frankenstein." ”

"Hey, that's not what you said some time ago when you used me as a shield for you and Kolo to deal with the media." Chen Peng complained unconvinced.

"I'm sorry, but don't you think it's a lady's prerogative?"

"As you said, it's a lady's prerogative." Chen Peng shrugged his shoulders and accentuated his tone on the word lady.

"Huh?" Vanessa squinted her eyes and exuded a dangerous aura, "Can I think you're discriminating against me?" ”

"Okay, okay, I'm sorry, it's me who didn't do it." Chen Peng's "undisciplined" immediately changed his attitude, smiled and raised his hands, and made a surrender gesture.

The two looked at each other for a while, and laughed out loud in tacit understanding, just as the two of them joked too much when they were children, and Chen Peng always gave in first. The laughter stopped for a while, and the two of them each picked up the cup in front of them and toasted.

For a while, both of them drank their drinks quietly, enjoying the tranquility of this moment, and seemed to be immersed in their respective thoughts.

After a long time, Vanessa put down the cup, looked at Chen Peng seriously, her expression became solemn, and she took the lead in breaking the silence: "Leon, I have a question for you, please answer me honestly." ”

Facing such Vanessa, Chen Peng also sat up straight: "Okay." ”

"From the point of view of a businessman or a scientist, you are proud of what you have achieved so far, and you are now living a semi-secluded life, without contact with the outside world, surrounded by such a labyrinth of real rooms. In terms of money, as long as you are willing to sell those shares in your hand, tens of billions of people will rush to ask for them, and in a few years, they will bring you hundreds of billions or even more wealth; Although I don't understand your research, I believe that if you are willing to publish a paper, it will definitely cause huge waves in the world, and it will even be a matter of time before you win the Nobel Prize and receive a medal.

With such honor and wealth at your fingertips, you have no enjoyment or entertainment, only this more like a prison residence and all sorts of mysterious realities, Leon, what do you want?! ”

Vanessa looked him straight in the eye and said word by word the most troubled questions of this time.

"Papers? Nobel Prize? Vanessa, just as you reminded me, I really have a suitable paper to publish, which will definitely cause a sensation. Chen Peng said thoughtfully, and after a while, he showed a sunny smile, "Okay, no kidding, what I want is actually very simple, that is, I want everyone to be better." ”

"That's too broad." Vanessa shook her head and said, "And from the perspective of a businessman and from the perspective of a scientist, the results of the so-called better are completely different, and you have both identities, except that you will never put on an armor and go out to be a superhero, I may not be able to guess the rest." ”

Chen Peng said: "It's very simple, it's nothing more than using the identity of a businessman to make money so that we have better material conditions, and then using the identity of a scientist to let us occupy a better position in the evolution of life." ”

"Evolution? What do you mean? Vanessa wondered.

Chen Peng did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "What do you think human beings are?" ”

"Leon, I don't want to guess riddles with you right now." Vanessa accentuated her tone, expressing her dissatisfaction with Chen Peng's not-so-clever Gu Zuo.

"It's not a riddle, my answer is inside."

After looking at Chen Peng for a while and confirming that he was not joking, Vanessa thought for a while, and then said: "Human beings are individual beings, the only intelligent life on earth, the most successfully evolved primates, the lamb of the Lord, and the original sin of nature......"

Chen Peng clapped his hands and said: "Very good, what you said covers philosophy, biology and theology, which is quite comprehensive, and my opinion is that human beings are a formula, human beings are equal to genes plus souls."

What are genes? It is the foundation of life on earth. It is simple, because its only will is to desperately copy and reproduce, and by extension, to survive and reproduce; It is also very complicated, in order to be able to successfully complete the only task, it has created a shell with various abilities that can carry its body as a tool to achieve its purpose, or can fly, or swim, or run fast, etc., etc., etc., and we are the most exquisite and successful shell that the gene has created so far, if other creatures are small cars that reduce emissions, then we humans are luxury supercars.

Of course, there is nothing to be proud of at this point, whether he is a Lamborghini or a Sail, he can do the same under the crappy program control of genes, and no matter how good the performance is, he can't play it. But at some point, there was a sudden and interesting cognitive shift in our simple reflex nervous system, and something more than all the material materials that made up human beings themselves. The extra thing is intangible and cannot be found, but it is the existence zài, which is called the self, the consciousness, and the soul.

So the shell with the name of the man has a driver, and he controls this delicate tool to break away from the original silly simple commands, and start to try more complex and creative tasks, this new combination is human. ”

Listening to Chen Peng's words, Vanessa showed a thoughtful expression.

Without waiting for Vanessa to answer, he continued: "But refinement often means fragility, and a wire, a stone, or a piece of wood can destroy the body, and our soul is even weaker than the external material existence, because the body can still function as a shield to some extent, but the soul has nothing. And being a driver is always tiring, and that's when the genetic will will take over and turn into primitive* slaves. ”

"Primitive* slaves? I don't like it, but I have to say it's interesting. Vanessa said with interest, "Can you tell me more about it?" ”

"Absolutely." Chen Peng smiled and continued: "Genes are very short-sighted things, for it, no matter how delicate the shell is, it is just a low-grade consumer product, it can only see the fastest and most efficient way of reproduction in front of it, so when its will dominates, human beings will be driven by *, completely emotional, and lose their normal intelligent behavior, no different from beasts." Look at the history of our human race, what is alive is a history of genetic competition, countless wars, endless blood, endless slogans or endless fighting, in fact, the final result has fallen back to the competition and possession of survival resources and excellent opposite sex, this is the most primitive instinct brought to us by genes, which is essentially a game dominated by genes.

On the contrary, human beings' great inventions, creations, sciences and arts are all intelligent behaviors that can only be embodied by the soul when they get rid of the control of genes, so the acquisition of wisdom and the development of civilization by human beings are actually fighting against our genes, and if we want to gain liberation and freedom, we must get rid of the control of genetic instinct. ”

"So when you say to get better, you mean taming the instincts of genes?"

"Let's just put it that way." Chen Peng stretched his waist against the sofa, crossed his legs and changed to a more comfortable sitting position, and said casually: "In fact, this is also the main reason why human beings have always been wary of AI. At this point, AI is the opposite of us, and even under the premise of sufficient information, it can also grasp the human situation in turn, if AI is equipped with a solid metal body, then even the material existence of human beings is at an absolute disadvantage, which is why human beings always fantasize that they will be destroyed by the created machine.

In fact, what humans are really wary of is not AI, but themselves. But if we can overcome the instinct of genes and overcome our natural weaknesses, do we still need to be wary of the AI created by us? ”

Vanessa nodded in agreement and said, "One of my professors said something similar before, and I was impressed. He believes that the future evolutionary direction of human beings is elitism, and elitism refers to optimizing the gene chain of human beings, prolonging lifespan, enabling us to get rid of or weaken the natural inferiority in genes, and correct the negative emotions that are not conducive to social development, such as violence, jealousy, and destruction. ”

"Your professor is an amazing man, and I'd like to talk to him when I get a chance." Chen Peng said thoughtfully: "I don't think as far as him, what I want to do is controllable quality." ”

"Controllable premiumization?" Hearing that what her brother was about to say was obviously a new idea, Vanessa's beautiful big eyes widened slightly, and she listened to his words. (To be continued.) )
