Chapter 18: This Is a War
"300 nanoseconds? What did you find? ”
At the communication meeting the next day, Professor Xu, Tang Xiaotang and his assistants were shocked and suspicious, and there was a breakthrough in one day?
"We found a way, me and Xia Ming, mainly due to Xia Ming."
Lin Cheng deliberately emphasized, Xia Ming put on a modest appearance that he didn't dare to be, but his heart echoed with pride, he was indeed a great contribution.
Yesterday, Xia Ming took Lin Cheng to meet with five shrimps, but he didn't expect the other party to be quite old, in his forties, and he looked quite unhappy as a small head of a department in an Internet company.
Wudao Shrimp didn't hide anything from Merkrit's technology, and poured out everything he knew, in his opinion, this is a brain hole that has long been eliminated by history, and it has little value. What he cares more about is knowing Lin Cheng Xia Ming.
After returning, Lin Cheng said that the direction of Merkrit technology is excellent, which is very consistent with the quaternary system of quantum computing, and can be implemented at the bottom level, but he can't think of a way to achieve it for a while. Lawrence does this in a simulated way, which is actually to shrink the block, and it is still a linear structure.
Xia Ming has understood the quaternary principle of quantum computing, because there is the principle of quantum inaccuracy, so quantum computing is based on two cross-referenced qubits, each qubit is two bits, which is the source of the quaternary system.
Therefore, Xia Ming proposed an idea, if the three data bits are defined as the XYZ axis of space, and the fourth data bit is defined as a standard size, such as the radius of a molecule, thus constituting a theoretical "virtual molecule". If the virtual molecules are described as closed in the cluster, then the virtual molecules cannot coincide with each other, and there are objects, and as for space, it is OK to zero the radius of the virtual molecules.
Lin Cheng tried it, and then he couldn't stop, and he was busy all night, perfecting Xia Ming's idea.
Lin Cheng rubbed his red and swollen eyes and said, "Give me another three days, let me optimize the analog instruction set, which can increase the speed to less than 100 nanoseconds." ”
"Xiao Xia, you are our lucky general!"
Professor Xu let out a sigh of relief, and his waist, which was originally straight, suddenly softened. Seeing him take off his glasses and wipe them with his head down, the three assistants all had embarrassed expressions.
This is a significant step forward, not only solving a major problem, but also saving almost a month!
Although Tang Xiaotang has found a fee and a partner, if there is no progress in the research, no one knows what the situation of the year-end research institute will be. Don't look at Professor Xu smiling all day long, everyone knows how much pressure he is carrying.
Tang Xiaotang looked at Xia Ming with a complicated gaze, and muttered, "Is there something in the dark that is bless us." ”
This made Xia Ming's neck cold, it is indeed blessed by R3AI, but it is not this R3AI called "Qianyan", but the R3AI in his head.
The eyes of the three assistants staring at Xia Ming were also very complicated, especially Hou Yunting, the light flashing in her eyes seemed to contain something unusual, Xia Ming couldn't understand it, and she didn't have the heart to look at it, so he looked at Tang Xiaotang and smiled.
Tang Xiaotang first smiled, then grinned, and then she clenched her fists, jumped up with a bang, and shouted like a singer digging a high note: "Turn on!" Three days later! ”
Out of the basement, Xia Ming felt that the floor seemed to be trembling with rhythm, he really didn't expect Tang Xiaotang's voice to be so penetrating.
So in the afternoon, the quarrel from the second floor immediately sounded that it was Tang Xiaotang.
Although I can't hear the follow-up, I should have closed the doors and windows, but this is not difficult for Xia Ming. He stared up at the ceiling, and instantly entered the management mode of R3AI, and the whole person seemed to be in a daze, and outsiders couldn't see anything unusual.
As soon as the thought moved, the movement in a certain office on the second floor jumped out from the countless information planes and was clearly displayed to Xia Ming. Then his consciousness shook and he almost quit the management mode, and the quarrel inside was related to him!
"Xia Ming entered the institute through formal procedures, if there is a problem, why didn't he bring it up a month ago?"
This is Professor Xu's voice, although it is very calm, but in Xia Ming's consciousness space, the abnormal fluctuation of the voiceprint shows that Professor Xu is trying his best to suppress his anger.
Director Wang, who was in charge of administration, said in an official tone: "The adjustment was also decided by the school last week, Lao Xu, the institute is still a graduate student base after all, and if you want to enter graduate school, you can only compress interns." Xia Ming is in the research institute, with the lowest academic qualifications, and the school is also the worst, who will he adjust if he doesn't adjust? ”
Tang Xiaotang suppressed his voice and said, "Xia Ming is now a member of the core group!" ”
Director Wang said: "Core group? Isn't that even worse, isn't it stipulated in the agreement between the institute and the school that the change of important personnel must be approved by the school? ”
Professor Xu's anger could no longer be suppressed: "The school has already conducted a political trial on Xia Ming!" How to arrange it is my business! ”
"The core group of the institute is a secret-related unit, and the general political review is not enough", Director Wang sighed: "There are imperfections in the agreement, but it is not a reason not to abide by it, Lao Xu, don't leave a handle on the school side......
Professor Xu slapped the table: "Is this the attitude of the school, or your attitude?" Any grievances, they are all coming at me! What is Natsu doing with it!? He is still a simple student, you will make a fuss about him, Wang Haosheng, do you still have a conscience!? ”
This was the first time that Xia Ming had experienced Professor Xu's straightforwardness, and in his indignant words, there was not only extreme dissatisfaction with Wang Haosheng, but also indignation at Xia Ming being involved, which moved him quite a lot.
"Xu Ping! Don't treat business as a personal grudge! Wang Haosheng was a little embarrassed, and said stiffly: "The school has been decided, that's all!" ”
It's decided!?
Xia Ming's heart was cold, his dream of being a scientist was so inexplicably shattered? This shot is really unjust......
Wait, I'm afraid this is not a lying gun, but someone has been shot black!
In the consciousness space, Xia Ming's thinking was extremely clear, and a scene jumped out. On that day, he got out of the luxury car with the mussel shell spirit logo on the front of the car, his face was gloomy, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, it seemed that it was not pretending to be calm, but premeditated.
Yang Shengtang......
He is definitely behind the scenes!
But how do we get through this hurdle now? Is there really no way to save it?
Xia Ming calculated, in the consciousness space, countless planes rotated like vortices, and at this moment, in the office on the second floor, Tang Xiaotang's voice sounded, very calm, it was the kind of "discrimination" posture when she usually spoke.
"There's no decision that can't be changed, it's just a matter of weight. Wang Haosheng, you have a choice......"
Tang Xiaotang's words gave Xia Ming a feeling of going back in time, but it was not herself who faced her, but Wang Haosheng.
"Either tell the president the news that I am willing to teach at Yan University immediately, so as to invite merit, be promoted to an official and a half-position, and get out of here by myself!" Either do nothing, wait an hour and tell the principal about it, and get kicked out! ”
"Xiaotang!"
"What!? Would you like to enter Yan University!? ”
Professor Xu and Wang Haosheng were shocked, in addition to this, Professor Xu also had the taste of regret, but Wang Haosheng was happy, and he didn't care about Tang Xiaotang's attitude towards him.
"It's only an hour! Professor, let's go! ”
Tang Xiaotang pulled Professor Xu out of the office, and in the aisle, the whispers of the two were still clearly heard by Xia Ming.
"Xiaotang, what's the ...... about this?"
"Lest he still shit and pee in the research institute when he gets out, he has been waiting for this credit for a long time."
"I'm not talking about this, you entered Yan University, Elliello ...... there"
"I don't care, Professor, aren't you the same?"
"Alas......"
Xia Ming quit the management mode, thought about it, and asked Lin Cheng: "Why doesn't Xiaotang enter Yan University to teach?" ”
Lin Cheng's mind was full of code, and he replied casually: "Xiaotang is the director of Ellio and an expert in bioengineering, and the company was afraid that she would join Yanda to help conduct research related to the company's business, so it signed an agreement. If Xiaotang joins Yan University to teach, her voting rights on the board of directors will be revoked. ”
Xia Ming's heart was agitated, although he didn't understand it very well, but relying on the superficial knowledge he gained in film and television dramas, he also knew that the price Tang Xiaotang paid was huge.
He entered the management mode again, paying attention to the movements of Wang Haosheng's office on the second floor.
Wang Haosheng happily informed the principal of the good news, and it could be heard that the principal had been looking forward to it for a long time. As for Wang Haosheng taking the credit on himself, as Tang Xiaotang said, why waste his feelings on this bureaucratic dog and just kick out of the institute.
It's just that...... It's unpleasant, thinking that Tang Xiaotang will enter the public eye after taking up the teaching position, which will attract more troubles that she is very resistant to, Xia Ming is angry.
After Wang Haosheng finished talking to the principal, he was silent for a while, and then dialed another phone.
"Things have changed, Tang Xiaotang has protected this person, and of course she has also paid the price. Yes, she agreed to enter Yan University, which is a great thing for your company, me? I can't help anymore, and I guess I will go to which department to be the head of the department in a few days...... Hey, hey? ”
The other party hung up the phone very rudely, and Wang Haosheng scolded: "What a thing! Don't bump into my students in the future......"
Sure enough, it's Yang Shengtang, I really underestimated your shamelessness!
It was the first time in his life that Xia Ming had such a strong hatred, but in the space of consciousness, he found that this hatred was actually not aimed at Yang Shengtang, but at himself.
"I'm too weak, too weak......"
Guilt and unwillingness to roll up a storm on every level of consciousness, but they didn't let Xia Ming withdraw, and reason showed him a clearer and more urgent way forward.
In a high-rise building in Xiaguang CBD, Yang Shengtang slammed his fist on the desk and spilled tea on the table. The secretary looked over, and he roared, "Get out! ”
After a long breath, he dialed the phone: "Remember the person I asked you to check before?" That's right, find someone to get him into the bureau! Find the origin of the relationship between men and women! What the? My father? ”
After hanging up the phone, Yang Shengtang turned on a machine with the "CISCO" logo on his desk, and the words "Confidential video conferencing system activated" were projected on the wall.
After more than ten seconds, the standby scene changes to an old man, bareheaded, with a gray-white goatee that has been extremely trimmed, and his gaze is hidden behind thick spectacle lenses.
The old man said coldly: "I'm waiting for your call, so there is no need to report Tang Xiaotang's matter." ”
Yang Shengtang showed a helpless wry smile, and then said in a hopeful tone: "Father, I am going to solve a person by some small means. ”
"Well, if you can say this to me, it means that you are still a little sane, but ......"
The old man's expression became sharp, almost the same as the change in Yang Shengtang's expression when facing Xia Ming before: "You are still so unsuccessful!" It doesn't matter if you want to continue playing children's emotional games, but you're like a mouse, burrowing into a stinky ditch to chase a bed bug! You are really the face of the Changyang family! ”
"I ......" Facing his father Yang Yuanchang, Yang Shengtang was really like a mouse seeing a cat, and he couldn't say a word of rebuttal.
"Let you stare at Xu Ping's research, you always stare at Tang Xiaotang, if they make progress, voting rights are a fart! Elliello is a piece of! ”
Yang Yuanchang said impatiently: "You don't have to worry about the rest of the matter!" ”
Yang Shengtang finally mustered up the courage at this time: "Father, I don't care about other things, Xiaotang ......"
"You had to look up to her ten years ago, and now you think you're qualified to be her equal? She is our opponent! We are fighting a war! When will you let go of your unrealistic fantasies, I will let you face everything I am facing now! ”
After speaking, Yang Yuanchang interrupted the call, Yang Shengtang stared at the wall for a long time, and said hatefully: "I'm not qualified? Could that bed bug be eligible!? ”
"Don't look at me like that, it's already like this......"
Three days later, in the laboratory, Tang Xiaotang said to everyone casually. Then she looked at Xia Ming, the light in her eyes made Xia Ming's heart tremble, is she looking for someone to be responsible?
"Remember, I spent a lot of money to keep you by Qianyan's side."
Tang Xiaotang joked, and after everyone laughed, they were ready to go.
Now that he heard this name, Xia Ming's mood didn't fluctuate much, but he still felt that Tang Xiaotang's tone when he mentioned this name was a little strange.
It should be that there are too many expectations placed on this Qianyan......
Through the glass window of the control room, the "Qianyan" in the laboratory was already in standby, and a faint mist diffused from the green lacquered steel shell, Xia Ming suddenly felt that in a sense, this Qianyan was also like an extension of that Qianyan, guiding him to a new life.
"The starter is installed......"
"Potential Error Correction Completed......"
"The synaptic activity of the artificial nerve has been tested, and everything is normal."
"The quantum computing shell is loaded, and the echo is normal!"
"Real-time depiction of system testing...... Normal! ”
The scene was like a command center at a rocket launch site, and the atmosphere became tense a little bit. Xia Ming, who was only qualified to be a spectator, shrank into the corner of the control room, not daring to disturb everyone's work.
After all the preparations were completed, everyone looked at Professor Xu, and the old man took a deep breath and waved his hand: "Start!" ”
