PCMagazine is a well-known IT magazine in the United States, known for its product and technology reviews. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info It has the largest evaluation laboratory in IT media at present, and conducts comparative evaluation of nearly 30 products every year, including notebooks, desktops, monitors, scanners, printers, switches, servers and other IT products, ranging from 10 to 40 products each time.

In addition, it conducts an average of about 30 individual product reviews per month. Its column "Opinions" also gathers a group of senior critics in the industry. Many individuals and small and medium-sized enterprises in Europe and the United States are purchasing hardware based on the evaluation results of this magazine.

Unlike the physical version, which is mainly based on hardware products, its online electronic version greatly increases the evaluation of popular software. On Monday morning, local time in New York, USA, the online version of "PCMagazine" published an online version of "China's Attack on Software?! published a special issue on the translation software of small cards.

The magazine compared the small card software with similar software on the market from many aspects, and interviewed several experts and professors in the field of artificial intelligence and machine translation, and came to the conclusion that the existing version of the small card translation software is ahead of the times. If the new version maintains the same level of functionality, it is almost certain that it will witness the birth of a new IT giant.

At the end of the article, the author writes, not without concern:

In the past ten years, we have had to reluctantly accept the reality that the price of any type of product, as long as there is the participation of Chinese companies, will soon fall to the bottom, and Chinese companies will occupy this market with incredibly low prices. Previously, we turned a blind eye because we firmly believed that the most high-end, and at the same time, the most profitable products, Chinese companies could not make them. And the software industry, like that, should be the world of our American companies. Now, a Chinese software company has come with a software that is ahead of its time, and although his roar to the world is still immature, it cannot be ignored.

With the influence of "PCMagazine" in the industry, the publication of this article immediately added fuel to the fire of an already hot topic, and the range of people participating in the discussion became larger and larger.

This article and related discussions were transferred to major domestic websites almost simultaneously. In the past, if domestic netizens wanted to read the latest hot articles abroad, they always had to wait for the media or foreign language experts to translate them into Chinese every two or three days before they could see it. Nowadays, with Xiaoka translation software, you can forward it back with the movement of the mouse, and it is more convenient to disseminate it. The vast majority of netizens who really care about this kind of news are users of Xiaoka Translation.

This kind of article has always had a hot basis: wow, Lao Mei is praising our country's software, and is worried that the software created by our country will attack them...... As a result, the pride of most enthusiastic netizens was fanned to the fullest, and as a result, a new wave of domestic speculation was set off.

The soul of gossip in the media has long been burning. A number of domestic Internet media, comprehensive newspapers, and magazines have sent reporters to the office of Infinite Future, and vowed not to give up until they dig up a front-page news.

As a result, Jin Wei was "besieged" by more than 40 reporters since he went to work on Monday, and the entrance of the company was surrounded by water, and then reporters came one after another, which finally alarmed the software park officials. Lu Wenqiang, the boss of the software park management committee, personally came forward to help organize and coordinate the evacuation of visiting reporters to the conference hall of the park.

"What about you Mr. Chen? With so many media, what a good publicity opportunity, please talk to Mr. Chen and reporters. After a busy conversation, Lu Wenqiang found that Chen Wenhao was not at the scene, so he grabbed Jin Wei and asked. The last time he came to visit, he met Jin Wei and knew that he was the head of the marketing department.

"Mr. Chen called me early this morning, saying that he had not entered the company for the past two days." Jin Wei was so busy that he was sweating, and it happened that Fang Yuxin went out this morning to talk about the office decoration, and he was a management cadre in the company, who was responsible for receiving visiting reporters throughout the process. Not to mention, he couldn't answer many technical questions. As for more reporters' requests for an exclusive interview with Chen Wenhao, he could only drag it out first.

"Do you think you should call Mr. Chen and tell him about the current situation?"

"It should be busy, no one answers."

……

At this time, Chen Wenhao was actually less than three kilometers away from the software park. This is a village on the outskirts of Jianghai City, and like all large urban suburban villages, agriculture is no longer the main business of local households, and more income comes from land and factory rents.

Now a young villager surnamed Xiong took him through the narrow and winding village road to the factory area near the village head, and walked to an iron gate with a single courtyard.

"The factory is in this yard, and I have written the details on the Internet." The young villager took out the key and opened the iron gate, which was a medium-sized yard that could accommodate four or five cars, and the yard was obviously uncleaned for some days, and some sundries and wind-blown garbage were everywhere. Facing the iron gate is a steel structure workshop, Chen Wenhao went in to take a look, the 1000 square meters of the plant is empty, it looks even more empty.

The young villager stood at the door of the factory, saw Chen Wenhao after reading it, and introduced, "There are not many factories in the village with independent courtyards like me. My old man originally opened a machinery factory and signed a 10-year contract with the village, but he couldn't do it for the past two years, so he planned to rent it out. ”

In terms of rent, the young villagers said that the minimum unit price was 0.7 yuan per square meter per day. Taking advantage of the fact that both sides have brought the relevant licenses and standard contracts, they immediately signed a two-year lease contract on the spot.

Chen Wenhao called Jiang Hong to inform him of the online bank transfer, and within a few minutes, the mobile phone of the villager surnamed Xiong prompted that the money had arrived, and he happily left the key and left first.

Chen Wenhao closed the iron gate of the courtyard, closed the electric switch of the factory, and after confirming that no one was there, he came to a socket in the corner of the factory. He said to the watch in his hand, "It's time to eat!" I saw that the AppleWatch-style watch on my wrist began to dissolve and deform automatically, and the surveyor turned into a black metal liquid, which plunged into the socket jack.

This is the main reason why Chen Wenhao rented this factory.

Two days ago, he learned from his daily communication with Xiaoka that although the surveyor could not recover its flight power by charging alone, it could restore its own basic manufacturing capacity. It turns out that in order to allow the surveyor to cope with extreme situations, the alien race has built-in basic manufacturing and production capabilities, as long as there are raw materials and energy, they can manufacture corresponding accessories for self-repair.

At first, Chen Wenhao didn't care, and it was useless to have the accessories of the surveyor, but now the key is that there is no suitable energy source. But Xiaoka's subsequent explanation made him moved. It turns out that as long as the small card cooperates with the control, any accessories can be produced. Of course, large accessories can't be done, after all, the surveyor is limited in size, and it is only a basic manufacturing capacity.

"The concept of foundation is too vague, can you give an example?"

[The mainstream manufacturing process of your human semiconductor chips is 14nm, and the smaller the size, the higher the accuracy, and the more difficult the process. The surveyor can achieve 1FM, and the conversion relationship between the two is 1nm=1000000FM. 】

Chen Wenhao is not an expert in electronic chips, but it is enough for him to understand that this so-called basic manufacturing capacity has greatly exceeded the current level of the earth.

Previously, he tried charging the surveyor with a civilian power grid at home, and the fuse burned in less than 10 seconds. Now the power distribution capacity of this industrial plant is 1000KVA, which should be able to meet the load of the surveyor when charging. He pulled out his phone, which had been set to silent, and asked, "How long does it take to recharge it to restore manufacturing functionality?" ”

The phone screen flashed, and a 48-hour countdown appeared.

Chen Wenhao observed for a few more minutes and found that the surveyor was still quietly hiding in the socket to charge. Unless you're looking for it, no one notices the black in the jack. He locked the gate as it was, and prepared to come back in two days to retrieve the surveyor.

probably knew that he had just called Jiang Hong, and Jin Wei's call had also come. Knowing that the company was surrounded by a group of reporters, Chen Wenhao was too lazy to go back to deal with it and dispelled the idea of joining the company.

"Jin Wei, I will send you a detailed introduction to the new version and new features later, and you can send it to reporters. As for the interview, the entrepreneurial process or something has been pushed. ”

"Mr. Chen, many reporters are asking about the exact time when the new version will be launched."

"Oh, that's for Wednesday. I originally wanted to build up the momentum and go online again, but the reaction on the Internet in the past two days is enough. ”

Jin Wei, who put down the phone, couldn't cry or laugh, so many media came to interview, what a good publicity opportunity, other startups couldn't think of it, but they didn't want to change it to their own boss. However, thinking about which start-up company's products can attract the world's attention like Xiaoka Translation, Jin Wei was relieved, and turned his head to deal with a bunch of reporters.

In the afternoon of the same day, a countdown clock appeared on the official website of Xiaoka translation software, and the accompanying text at the bottom read: "At 10 o'clock in the morning on Wednesday, Xiaoka translation software 2.0 is newly unveiled!" ”

At this time, many media who went to Infinite Future Company in the morning have begun to publish interview reports quickly, which further fuels the flames and triggers various discussions and expectations on the Internet.

More discussions and analyses finally turned into questions and expectations: Is a new era of interconnectedness with language without borders and barrier-free communication coming?
