Under Qin Tairan's deliberate request for a low-key approach, the Duke kidnapping case ended quietly with Jack's arrest and the FBI continuing to pursue the three Pitt in a low-key manner, without even a short news message, as if the kidnapping case had never happened at all.

But for Shu Ya, this is an unforgettable thing. When Duke returned to Boston unharmed, Shu Ya reappeared, and Shu Ya, who was relaxed, finally couldn't support it and couldn't afford to get sick.

So Duke was not at all easy during this time, on the one hand, he had to deal with a bunch of affairs in the MI company left by Shuya's illness, although most of the affairs were assigned to Clement, Suzanne and Selena to handle the specific affairs, but some decision-making matters were really inconvenient to handle.

On the other hand, Duke has to go to the hospital to take care of Shu Ya as soon as he has time, Shu Ya is haggard and weak, although it is not a serious illness, but now he has problems even standing, so the doctor still requires hospitalization for a period of time.

That's all there is to it, anyway, Duke likes to stay with Shuya, and now that he has the opportunity to be justified, he is naturally happy, but he is followed by a new tail, which greatly reduces this originally very warm scene.

Originally, I felt that Duke was still a student, and this security issue in the United States should not be big, but who knew that there was a matter of Jack, Qin Tairan suddenly felt that Duke's security issue had to be upgraded. Therefore, it is good to persuade Duke to hire security guards in the name of MI Company. There is no way, if you arrange your own people to follow in the United States, it will be a lot of inconvenience.

However, it doesn't feel very appropriate to equip Duke alone, so the senior core members of the MI company are each equipped with a personal bodyguard, Duke is followed by a sturdy black man, who is 1.85 meters tall, and his name is quite tiger, called Kobe, which happens to have the same name as the NBA superstar, it is said that he was a retired from the Marine Corps, and his skills have been interviewed by professionals invited by Qin Tairan, and he is not weak in hand-to-hand combat or light weapons.

And Shu Ya and the three girls, one of them is equipped with a white female bodyguard from a police officer, Shu Ya's female bodyguard is called Catherine, and she looks more delicate, but Duke knows that she wears a Glock 17 all year round, which is small and lightweight, has a large magazine capacity, and the 50-meter rapid fire pistol score is not lower than 95 rings. In addition, it is equipped with an ordinary fixed front sight and notched illuminator, and there are large tritium luminous spots on the reticle and notched illuminator, which are used for night shooting, so it is very suitable for day and night use.

After being equipped with bodyguards in this way, it was naturally not suitable to live in the school dormitory, so Duke rented a two-story house more than ten kilometers away from the school. Four bedrooms, three living rooms and three bathrooms, as well as a large garage large enough to park two cars, as well as a large lawn and swimming pool, although the rent is a little higher, but on the one hand, it is close to the school, on the other hand, the surrounding facilities are complete, and the security measures of the community are also good.

But with bodyguards, the original Bumblebee was difficult to use, so the company bought several Mercedes-Benz S300s and BMW 740s, one for each executive. Let Duke's life suddenly enter the era of full-time drivers, if there is not a tail to follow all the time, Duke will be more satisfied with all this in front of him, which is a bit like living the life of a rich man.

As for the brothers in China, after Duke came back safely, they reported the situation, and everyone was very surprised, although they felt that this was not the case on the mainland, Cai Siqiang still replaced the security guard of the SAL company with a soldier who had retired from the armed police special service brigade or field troops.

It doesn't cost much more to change the security guard, and it's a lot more practical to go out to run errands, as for the family, it's free, the house that the three of them are buying now is in a community, which belongs to the upstairs and downstairs together, and the three big men really don't believe that anything will happen.

After all, they just heard Duke say it so lightly afterwards, and they didn't experience those more than 60 hours of difficult time, so they didn't have a deep understanding of it, and Duke was helpless.

The aftermath of the kidnapping case faded as Shu Ya recovered. If anything, it was for safety reasons, Shuya agreed to move out and "live together" with Duke, although he lived in a room with Duke, Duke still seemed a little excited.

In fact, after this turmoil, the two have made a heart-to-heart promise, but in this last step, Duke has not yet found an opportunity to break through.

In terms of work, the progress is quite satisfactory, the Duke laboratory in the United States has created a shelf, Boston is backed by the two top universities of MIT and Harvard, and it is relatively easy to recruit people, and Duke promises that if all research results are converted into products, the R&D team will be rewarded with 20% of the profits of the product; If the results are significant and it is necessary to set up an independent company to operate, you can also get shares in the new company.

With this favorable condition, coupled with the annual salary guarantee that is almost the same as that of large companies, it is obviously a good way for those masters and doctors who are not willing to start a business and find a job, choosing to join the Duke Lab. In particular, students who are interested in studying speech recognition and artificial intelligence decided the starting point of their careers in the direction of Duke.

In order to ensure that the research system can be shared across regions, Duke remembered a crowdsourcing company at the time of the startup competition, and their cloud-managed R&D platform was very distinctive, very Duke's global R&D center, so Duke came to the door and bought a controlling stake of 51% at a valuation of $30 million and $15.1 million.

Duke obtained the source code of this cloud management platform, and through Kerry's custom development, after strengthening the security attributes for enterprise applications, Duke's R&D center R&D management was carried out based on this platform. Let two R&D labs in China and the United States work on the same platform.

Inadvertently, Duke opened up a whole new business area for this crowdsourcing company, and when they launched a virtual R&D management platform desktop for outsourcing companies, they unexpectedly won the praise of many small and medium-sized outsourcing companies, making the company go from burning money to making money in one fell swoop.

With this lab, Duke improved the speech recognition SDK library and consciously guided the development team to develop two new killer applications, a Chinese-English automatic translator and an enterprise-level AI-powered automatic speech response center. An MP3-sized box with an Andriod system and a speech recognition engine makes communication between Chinese and English, which is extremely difficult, a simple matter.

The prototype and core module of this product were proposed by Duke, and researchers recruited by Duke Labs refined and designed them. It is conceivable that when this product is officially launched, it will inevitably be another sensational product.
