Chapter Seventy-Six: A Thousand Faces II and the Day of Confession

"If you are willing to come, of course we are very welcome, but Legend Mutual Entertainment will not let you go easily, right?"

In the northwest of Xiangshan, a place that was once an abandoned factory has now become a noisy construction site. The huge chimney, which was only half-built, was enclosed by walls and barbed wire, and it looked like it had been completed.

Under the chimney, Xia Ming stepped on the weeds that had not yet had time to be leveled, and asked Tian Chong and Hang to the north.

Now he knows that the W project of Legend Interactive Entertainment is actually a copycat "Minecraft", and the test of "Phantom Galaxy" directly ruined the future of this game. In this world, in this era, no one can know everything.

Xia Ming felt that he really did whichever line of work, he would follow which line he did. If Legend Mutual Entertainment's W project moves faster, "Phantom Galaxy" will have to tear up the legend head-on. Fortunately, my side is a little faster.

However, Tian Hang and the two turned against each other, which made things go in that direction again.

He genuinely welcomes these two people, and Illusion is desperately short of people, and Wu Sihao's development team is barely able to keep up with the progress of the editor, and the work of enriching the gameplay is not taken care of at all. He also expects the team to move on to the Terminator neuronal chip development language and compiler, and to prepare for the further development of the game with a separate team.

These two people can bring a team to come, which is a relief in disguise.

But what is the attitude of Legend Entertainment?

Tian Zhong and Hang Xiangbei looked at this place curiously and in awe, this is just the central laboratory of the "Yan Quantum Neural Research Institute" and the "Xu's Artificial Intelligence Research Institute", and the two large and one small three workshops next to it have not yet been sorted out.

It can be seen that this side of the laboratory is all in a hurry, except for the road leading to the chimney, the rest of the place is still weedy. The guard room at the entrance of the laboratory and the research room around the chimney are all transformed by placing containers directly on the steel frame. The steel frame and the container are painted with matt iron gray paint, revealing a solemn and neat look up.

The two of them were stunned for a while, and You Kuang, who had communicated with them, replied: "They are only in charge of the W project in the legend, and this project is obviously going to be canceled, so there is no big trouble." The agreement re-signed by Legend Hetian is to come and go freely, and there is a non-compete agreement in Hang Xiangbei, which will involve the issue of compensation, as for the development team, ......"

Hang Xiangbei said: "Because of secrecy, that team has nothing to do with Legend Entertainment, and Legend doesn't know much about the team's situation." If Project W is cancelled, that team will definitely be disbanded, and there will be no problem in pulling it over. ”

Tian nodded: "If there is a problem, it is estimated that only face will remain, but this industry is like this, and the legend himself has done a lot of this kind of thing." ”

Xia Ming thought for a while and said to the two: "Since you took the initiative to come, whether it is face or other beginnings and tails, the responsibility is on our side." ”

He explained to You Kuang: "Lao You communicated with the legend, and said that we are willing to make compensation, in addition to non-compete compensation, we can license the alfalfa engine to them for free." ”

The two of them were agitated in their hearts, Xia Ming paid a lot of money, they had considered using the Alfalfa engine to transform the game, but at that time they felt that this technology was too new, although the 0.7% licensing fee was low, it was also a block cost, according to the total income of 1 billion, it was also 7 million, and finally gave up.

Xia Ming gave up this income for them, if the legend fully switched to the alfalfa engine in the future, the annual licensing fee would be tens of millions.

Tian Zhong and Hang Xiangbei were a little frightened, and were about to speak, Xia Ming waved his hand and said: "This is also to promote the cooperation between the legend and us, so don't care." ”

It's really a win-win, no, win-win-win move. Tian Chong was relieved, Hang Xiangbei told him about organizing the MC private service to serve the master before, and seeing that Xia Ming didn't care at all, he also let go of a matter of concern.

"Lao Tian has international experience, let's go to the United States first to set up the American cicadas, and Hangzhou will go north...... That's a good name, first take over the refinement of the gameplay of Galaxy of Illusions in Yandu, and the team will be integrated by you. ”

Xia Ming assigned the job on the spot, gave Tian Chong the position of vice president of Cicada and general manager of Cicada Movement, and asked him to go to the United States to solve Lawrence's complaints. Hang Xiangbei is the project director of the fantasy game department.

Xia Ming said again: "After the game develops to a certain scale, it should be independent, and the time is very fast, so fast that you feel that you can't keep up." ”

Looking at this place, where they heard that it was just ruins more than a month ago, Tian Hang and the others are full of expectations for the future.

It's been a week since the last interview, and the test of "Phantom Galaxy" is progressing step by step, Xia Ming's focus has been on the laboratory, and today Qianyan II will have its first test run.

After talking about the game side, Tian Hang and the two were about to leave, and a convoy happened to drive in.

Seeing that the convoy was all painted with military camouflage, and the leader of the platoon turned out to be an armored vehicle driving the road, the two were shocked.

A group of heavily armed soldiers got out of the car, and the leading lieutenant muttered to Xia Ming for a while, beckoning the soldiers to unload. The last two figures who got down from the armored car made the two even more dumbfounded.

Filled with metallic joints and armor, slightly mechanical movements when walking, and muffled motor sounds with action, it is like a mecha warrior jumping out of a science fiction game.

The helmet mask of a mecha warrior was opened, and it was Yi Liqing, who shouted at Xia Ming: "Now we are in a military restricted area!" ”

The other mechwarrior was a little slower, he didn't open his mask, and the old voice was amplified by the horn on the helmet, sounding more like a non-human: "So many people? Do they all have access to Class II secrets? ”

You Kuang smiled at Tian Hang: "We have to leave, this is a secret related to the military." ”

The two nodded without representing, followed You Kuang out, and Hang Xiangbei whispered: "That's power armor, the military ......"

You Kuang raised his hand and signaled to shut up: "You didn't see anything. ”

The two of them glanced at each other, and they both smiled slightly, and they had no doubts about the future.

Xia Ming smiled at Yi Liqing and said, "You guys are really good at picking time." ”

"The queen has an order, and she doesn't dare to disobey."

Yi Liqing shrugged, and it seemed a little ridiculous for the power armor to make this action.

Now facing Tang Xiaotang, Yi Liqing is extremely obedient and does not dare to show a trace of obscenity.

When he first met Tang Xiaotang, he thought he was an intern at the research institute, and he played with Xiao Huan like "teasing" Xiao Huan. As a result, Tang Xiaotang broke his fetish syndrome with one word, and then severely criticized the postmodern decadent consciousness of "Humanoid Computer Angel Heart", and he couldn't raise his head since.

Xiaotang also has a heart......

Xia Ming secretly praised that XGPA already had two prototypes, and after Shang Weidong came to the research institute to see it, he praised it and urged the military to add this plan to the bidding range. Because next month there will be a summary discussion of the plan, the XGPA project is also listed as a military secret, and the military will send personnel to guard it.

Xiaotang took the opportunity of today's trial operation of Qianyan II to move the test site of XGPA, and added a warning net to Qianyan II through XGPA.

The soldiers carried the equipment to the "container house" behind the chimney, and then separated the area from barbed wire, creating a military secret area in this area. The gate is also guarded, and the entire laboratory is quite secure.

Two power armor stomped into the house, followed by two people out. Behind Yi Liqing turned out to be Lao Hong, on crutches, and his figure was a little rickety, which was in stark contrast to the heroic posture of wearing power armor just now.

Lao Hong reluctantly looked back as he walked, and then said to the soldier with a calm face: "Cheer up!" To be a soldier, you have to be a soldier! ”

Xia Ming smiled, just because of the power armor, Lao Hong had a second spring.

With the joining of Tian Hang and the others, he is even less worried about "Phantom Galaxy". On the power armor side, Lin Cheng has already figured out the intelligent framework and data model, and the subsequent tests and improvements are all mechanical and electrical, and Yi Liqing can take it all on.

For the next period of time, he can focus on Thousand Faces II.

Inside the chimney, it was as if you were in a cyberpunk world, with a steel frame supporting a round tower, twelve or thirteen meters high and about seven or eight meters thick, much like a coiled serpent. It is made of steel pipes with a diameter of about one meter stacked in a circle, and in the steel pipe is a new generation of artificial nerve synapses, and the slightest mist is diffused on the surface of the steel pipe, and liquid nitrogen has been injected, and various preparations are being made before starting.

In the laboratory, plus Xia Ming, there are six people in total.

In addition to Xia Ming, Xiaotang and Lin Cheng, He Xinghui and Hu Jun, two former assistants of Professor Xu, were also recruited back by Xiaotang, and another French woman named Lillo-Lafontaine was poached by Xiaotang from a research institute of Ellio in the United Kingdom. Said to be a medical genius, he has two doctorates in brain science and neuroscience. Of course, it can't be compared to a genius like Xiaotang, this Liluo is almost thirty years old.

Lilo-La Fontaine has only been here for a few days, and Xia Ming was not very relieved about this foreigner, but the person was pulled by Xiaotang, and he could only trust Xiaotang's eyes to see people.

Trust is only a stance and academic, and in other aspects, this Liluo makes Xia Ming a little troubled.

Unlike the Aryan race, who is marked by blonde hair and blue eyes, but ages quickly, this Frenchwoman with chestnut curly hair and turquoise eyes looks to be in her early twenties, much like Sophie Masu, who was very popular in the previous generation.

The problem is that this Lilo seems innocent, but in fact she is unrestrained. On the first day, he was entangled with Xia Ming, asking Xia Ming various details of his life in very strange French English, and kept sending benefits.

Xia Ming asked Xiaotang for help, but Xiaotang smiled and said that he was amorous, and Liluo purely regarded other people as existing or potential research subjects. Of course, she didn't forget to warn Xia Ming, don't think that the pair of meat balls that are one size bigger than Xiao Huan is a convenient door, Liluo is also her best friend, she can't spare anyone if she dares to think about anything.

It is a bit difficult for him to be comfortable with Lilo's harassment, but not to be calm about welfare. Xia Ming couldn't help but joke, it's better for you to send some benefits, so that you will definitely be able to withstand the temptation.

As a result, Xiaotang ignored him all day, and his face was cold when he saw it today.

"Still thinking about other people's welfare? Don't forget, you'll have to give me an account today. ”

Xia Ming looked at Liluo, who was busy on the computer with his back to him, and was distracted, a cup of coffee was handed to him, and then Xiaotang's low words.

took the coffee and took a sip, there was no sugar or milk, so bitter that Xia Ming's face wrinkled. Looking at Xiaotang innocently, she sipped her coffee elegantly as if nothing had happened.

No sugar and no milk......

Xia Ming felt that he understood something.

Tasting the bitter taste, Xia Ming sighed: "Okay, get ready." ”

[This week, for the time being, there will be a daily change, and everyone will slowly save up to see it. 】
