Xia Ming rushed to the research institute early in the morning, and the beautiful woman named Tangtang was a little surprised.

After staring at him for a long time, the beauty shook her head: "You really dare to come......"

Xia Ming's heart jumped, was discovered?

He came to the institute after a struggle of ideas, what is the full name of R3AI? "Human Self-Evolution Project Experiments with Type 3 Artificial Intelligence"! If it wasn't produced by this artificial intelligence research institute, where else could it be?

Originally, he thought that this was stealing someone's baby, and maybe he would be dissected, so it was better to escape as far as he could.

Later, he changed his mind, this R3AI is completely black technology, and the country must have strict security measures for such a bullish scientific research project. He, a college student who can't even touch the doorway of a neighborhood-level social vitality organization, can escape under the state's net? Do you want to go home and affect your parents and fellow villagers?

Besides, he didn't mean to steal, and strictly speaking he was still a victim, so why couldn't he talk to the institute in a dignified manner? At worst, it is just a subject of study. As for what ** anatomy, there are such rumors on the Internet, but they are just nonsense rumors. He studied journalism, and he still has a discernment in this regard.

Of course, the institute didn't find it any better. In this way, he changed from a pre-news dog of a third-rate university to a pre-scientist, which is simply a steady progress, and his life has turned to a golden avenue.

With a bit of luck and three points of apprehension, Xia Ming still came.

The beauty said: "Yesterday, your shouting scared my mother enough, and when we came out, you disappeared again, and I thought you were too scared to come." ”

Hey, didn't notice? Xia Ming breathed a sigh of relief, as for yesterday, he was scared enough by his aunt that he ran away on the spot. That fat aunt's surname is Pang? Really...... It's worth this surname.

Talking nonsense to deal with the past, Xia Ming still wanted to say a few words of greeting, ask for a name or something, but the other party didn't give him a chance, and took him straight into the building, explaining the precautions as he walked: "The third floor is the data area, the second floor is the office area, and the door over there is the basement, none of which you can go to, of course, it is superfluous to say this......"

Fifth wheel? Xia Ming didn't quite understand, and followed the beauty into a door.

The space inside the door was originally large, and it is estimated that two or even three classrooms were connected after they were opened. Four rows of racks occupied the wall and the center, so all Xia Ming could see was two narrow passages.

The rack was full of machines, Xia Ming didn't bother to take a closer look, the room was filled with the smell of burnt and electronics, which made his sense of smell, which had been ravaged yesterday cry bitter again.

"Woods! People come and see if they can be used. ”

The beauty greeted, and a lion's head stretched out at the end of the passage, startling Xia Ming. When the other party got closer, he saw clearly that it was a guy with unkempt hair. He was tall and thin, his beard was unshaved, and he looked like a vagabond, but his eyes were extraordinarily bright.

"See what it's for, and only know ...... when you use it"

The lion's head muttered with an unlit cigarette in his mouth, staring at Xia Ming not like looking at a person, but more like a ......

"Use it now, I'll return it as soon as it doesn't light up."

The beauty's words confirmed Xia Ming's guess, these two people were looking at him as a CPU or graphics card.

At this time, Xia Ming was still cowardly: "I'm familiar with DIY, I haven't touched the server, I have to train before I take up the post, right?" ”

"DIY and server are not opposing concepts", the lion head said while tinkering on the rack, Xia Ming was about to explain that the DIY he said was a personal computer, and the lion head said: "The server here, the CPU is not Xeon and Power, the memory is not ECC, the hard disk is not enterprise, all the servers here are ......"

The lion's head waved his hand, as if to introduce his kingdom: "It's all DIY with a personal computer." ”

I'll you......

Only then did Xia Ming notice that the four rows of shelves in front of him were not racks at all, but more like shelves, with various chassis on them, not servers with uniform specifications. Roughly calculated, there are at least 1,000 computers in this computer room. This research institute actually uses thousands of personal computers to DIY servers!

"It's really ......" Xia Ming almost spit out the word "shabby", his brain was excited, and he immediately changed his words: "It's like the earliest Google." ”

Xia Ming was keen on playing games when he first entered college, not only learned to install computers, but also mixed in card bars for a long time, and had at least a superficial understanding of the computer and Internet industries.

The lion's head was a little happy: "It seems that you know more than just screwing and jumpers, then you don't need training!" ”

Without waiting for Xia Ming to express his opinion, the lion's head handed him a piece of the motherboard that had been removed: "Yesterday, the monitoring server and switch in the computer room were all broken, and the computers didn't know how much they were broken, so I could only check which computers were good one by one, which ones only broke the power supply, and which ones broke other parts, and I was busy all night to check a small half of the ......."

Xia Ming took over the motherboard that seemed to be fine, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.

Sure enough, the lion's head pointed to the shelves against the wall and said, "That row will be handed over to you, and we will try to clean up this mess before dinner." ”

Xia Ming's heart trembled, there are more than 200 computers, and the installers in the computer city are not so hard!

If you do the math, the working time is 8 hours, 480 minutes. The number of computers on that row of shelves is counted as 240, which means that the time he takes to determine whether a computer is good or bad, and where it is bad, is only two minutes, which is a bit exaggerated.

Seeing that he didn't react, the beauty said, "Scared? You can choose not to do it. ”

Xia Ming scratched his head: "It's indeed a bit ......"

Then he shook his head: "It's just hard work, I'll do it." ”

He just hesitated to finish it before dinner, and then thought about it, it was a big deal to work overtime, or even stay up all night. For Xia Ming, who has been accustomed to self-reliance since childhood, this bit of hardship is nothing.

The corners of the beauty's mouth twitched slightly: "Strength work? When you think the research institute is a place to move bricks, huh? ”

She pointed to the row of shelves and said, "If you calculate that you have to check a computer in an average of two minutes, give you a grace limit of three minutes, there are twenty of them, I will watch here, if you can't finish it in an hour, or if there is a mistake, you will leave." ”

Xia Ming was stunned for a moment and left?

Two minutes is just a theoretical average, and relaxing to three minutes is of little practical significance. If the computer is good, it will light up at one point, plus check the network interface and other components, and it will be done within half a minute, but as long as you encounter a broken one, you have to use tools such as multimeter Debug card to determine where the problem is, and it will not take two or three minutes but ten minutes.

Xia Ming understood what she meant by "redundant" before, which was deliberately difficult.

The lion's head coughed: "Little sugar, don't be so strict, there is a shortage of people now." ”

The beauty said very seriously: "I know that there is a shortage of people now, but the more times like this, the more you can't relax the standards, otherwise it will be those rats who are greedy for life and afraid of death yesterday!" From now on, even if it is an aunt who sweeps the floor, you can't fool around. Imagine being dirty today, writing one less comment on the code tomorrow, and debugging the program the day after tomorrow......"

The lion's head raised his hand in surrender: "I didn't say anything. ”

Xia Ming frowned, this beauty is beautiful, but her heart is small enough......

However, he is not without eyesight, although the beauty is young, her status is not ordinary, she should be a graduate student led by Professor Xu, and she is considered a "true disciple" in the research institute, and her posture as a "junior disciple of the outer door" should be lowered.

Xia Ming suppressed his anger and politely reminded the other party: "I remember that Professor Xu said yesterday ......"

"Now I'm up to it", the beauty waved her hand, as if the name was a gas: "Professor Xu is Professor Xu, I am me!" ”

Xia Ming couldn't help it, and asked seriously: "Classmate, do I have any personal grudges with you?" ”

In fact, what he wants to ask is, just because I am from a third-rate university, you can't get used to me, so you have to let me go?

The beauty's eyes flashed, she shook her head and said, "No, I just can't get used to you." ”

Well, women are really unreasonable......

"If there is no problem with attitude and ability, it is not that I can't stay, I am a person with a clear distinction between public and private", the beautiful woman said the words that made Xia Ming feel that she had learned the language in vain, and then looked at her watch and issued an ultimatum: "Now you only have 58 minutes." ”

She folded her arms and raised her eyebrows like a queen: "Again, you can choose not to do it." ”

If it had been before, Xia Ming might have really turned his head and left, after all, he was a young man with strong blood, how could he be willing to suffer this kind of anger.

Now Xia Ming is angry, but he didn't let his emotions affect him, since the goal is to enter the research institute, if there are difficulties, overcome them, and can't give up easily.

Xia Ming shook his head again: "I'll do it." ”

Of course, he is not a person who swallows his anger: "If I finish it, I can stay, right?" ”

The beauty nodded: "Of course." ”

Xia Ming asked again: "When other interns come in, do they also have to do such a test?" ”

The other party was silent, and his eyes turned away.

Xia Ming smiled: "It's not fair......"

On the other hand, the lion's head also muttered, "yes, it's not fair." ”

The beauty glared at the lion's head and scratched her head, and then said to Xia Ming: "You can really do it, that is, I am gone, and I apologize to you." ”

That's it? Is it that you don't even bother to apologize and say sorry?

Xia Ming couldn't help but squeeze and said: "There is no need to apologize, there are still so many machines here, and when the time comes, ...... Senior sister also shares a hundred and eighty units? ”

"Senior sister......" The beauty said with a smile: "No problem! ”

The agreement that was almost a bet was established, Xia Ming took the tools and came to the shelf, thinking about how to start.

The first step is to determine how many units are good. Connect the tablet in your hand to the computer, turn it on, it's OK if it's on, and it's bad if it's not on.

It took nearly ten minutes to check the whole thing, and if all the twenty were good, then Xia Ming's luck would be against the sky, and he would win the bet. But Xia Ming is a non-mention life in this life, and only six out of twenty are good.

Now, he only had forty minutes left to figure out the specific problems with the remaining fourteen computers, which was obviously an impossible task.

The lion head sighed in the back: "Little Sugar ......"

The beautiful woman waved her hand to stop the lion's head and whispered: "It doesn't have to be 100% for him to do it, it depends on his attitude." If God helps him and he doesn't give up, it's not impossible to be worse. But it seems that God didn't give him a chance, and he coerced himself, you see, he will be thinking about what excuse to find. ”

Xia Ming was staring up at the ceiling, stunned.
