Chapter 15 Toast without eating and punishing wine

After all, this level cannot be escaped, although it is two days late.

On the third day after the end of the forum in Panwang Daguan, it was the time for the official launch of the "Dream True Magic Mirror", Zhang Zhicheng also invited Xia Ming to the press conference to help stand on the platform, of course Xia Ming didn't have time to go, he was under the triage of three halls.

"The problem of funding is solved......"

In Professor Xu's office on the second floor, Xia Ming was surrounded by Professor Xu, Tang Xiaotang and Lin Cheng. Of course, it is not affection, but incomprehension and suspicion.

"I also want to write 'proficient in computer software and hardware, programming master, English although I have only passed the fourth level but have a professional level of eight levels' into my resume, but someone has to believe it."

Xia Ming's strategy to cover up the existence of R3AI is very simple: we are self-taught, believe it or not, anyway, I just said so.

Of course, the actual rhetoric still has to be polished, so his explanation is still quite convincing, Yanhua University majored in journalism, claiming to be a programming master, such a contrast can not be cute, who looks at the resume, the first impression is "this kid can really blow".

Professor Xu put down the materials in his hand and looked very serious: "The political review report of the school security office was given to me yesterday, Xiaoxia, your family, your learning experience, there is no problem, the problem is ......"

Xia Ming's heart jumped, political trial! I really went to check my own family.

"The problem is conduct! The research of the institute is only theoretical, not very sensitive, and we never care about academic spies. In fact, there are academic spies, and it shows that we are taken seriously. Just like this time, if it weren't for Xiao Xia's cooperation with Mengzhen Company, our research institute would not be able to enter the eyes of those people. ”

Professor Xu's face was dissatisfied with hatred of iron and steel: "Xiao Xia, what ability do you have, you can make it clear when you enter the research institute, what are you doing to hide it?" Isn't this plain to make people doubt you? No matter how much you help, how can everyone always believe in you? ”

Professor Xu's question was straight to the heart, and Xia Ming didn't know how to answer.

"Xiao Xia's thoughts must be concealed, otherwise people will laugh at them, which is also human nature."

Lin Cheng was helping Xia Ming speak, but the sudden chill on his neck made Xia Ming feel that he was not helping him, but pit him.

It won't work if you don't open the ultimate, Xia Ming's heart was crossed: "Professor, I remember that I actually wanted to leave that day, didn't Uncle Tang not want to keep me at first?" ”

Professor Xu looked at Tang Xiaotang, his gaze was quite meaningful, Tang Xiaotang looked at the ceiling, but the faint flush on her cheeks revealed her lack of heart.

"Professor, you see, I didn't deliberately hide it from everyone, senior brother, senior uncle, I'm working hard", and then Xia Ming began to ask for credit, and Professor Xu and Tang Xiaotang both nodded subconsciously.

This really can't be denied, Xia Ming and Lin Cheng stayed up for five days last week, and the first two days were also so busy that they reversed day and night, and completed the structural transformation of the peripheral computer room in advance, which is what everyone in the research institute sees. At the Panwang Daguan meeting, Xia Ming made a great contribution, not only solving the problem of funding, but also finding an academic cooperation unit.

Seeing that the atmosphere was relaxed, Xia Ming struck while the iron was hot: "The affairs of Mengzhen Company really rely on the inspiration of the research institute and the guidance of my senior brother, I am too selfish in this." Professor, if you think it's inappropriate, I'll go to the agreement with Mr. Zhang, and the proceeds will go to the institute! ”

Professor Xu shook his hand repeatedly, and Tang Xiaotang glanced at him fiercely: "I still want you to be ashamed, I still want it, I made it very clear in front of so many people that night, so the institute will not be greedy for your money!" It's Lin Zi, I think you have to pay someone a consultant! ”

Lin Cheng also shook his hand: "I'm embarrassed to take this money." ”

There is no need to take this money, because there is other money to take. Xia Ming and he are already partners, and after polishing and encrypting the power-saving APP, it was handed over to Li Diluo to operate. Although he didn't know Li Diluo's ability, Xia Ming found the advisory group, and with the help of those people, it should be no problem to earn 1.8 million.

Lin Cheng and Xia Ming have a tacit understanding about this, and the technology has nothing to do with the research of the research institute, so there is no need to talk about it here. From the perspective of Hou Zhuge , it is not Xia Ming who dragged Lin Cheng into the water and formed a key move for the Xia Lin Group in the research institute.

So Lin Cheng consciously fulfilled the duties of the party and said something that surprised Xia Ming a little, but was also looking forward to it: "I think Naruko should be transferred to the core research group, with him, the progress in software can be accelerated a lot." ”

Professor Xu and Tang Xiaotang were silent, and Lin Cheng accentuated his tone: "I need an assistant like Naruko!" ”

Professor Xu said, "Let's think about it. ”

When Lin Cheng and Xia Ming came out of the office, Professor Xu asked Tang Xiaotang, "What do you see?" ”

Tang Xiaotang still didn't speak, and Professor Xu said again: "At first, he couldn't get into the interview list, but you insisted on him." What do you think, I don't want to ask, if you have any decisions, I will persuade you as an uncle, and wait, Xia Ming, this kid, people can't see clearly. ”

Tang Xiaotang said with a smile: "Professor, what are you thinking, I'm not ......"

She sighed again: "His entry into the core group is indeed helpful for research, and I have no objection to it." ”

Today, Xia Ming got off work early, and he received a notice to enter the core research group, which made him more happy than Zhang Zhicheng spending another two million to buy the authorization not to provide the same encryption services to the public in the second half of the year, which means that he has officially stepped into the palace of scientific research, and he can straighten up in front of Li Diluo and say: "My ideals have changed, I am a man who wants to be a great scientist!" Because now I'm a scientist! ”

Xia Ming trotted all the way out of the campus, he has been insisting on running, and originally wanted to figure out something related to running and even exercising on R3AI, but he was too busy to care about it during this time. However, this time it is a simple run, and it seems that there have been some changes, at least the lung capacity has increased a lot.

As soon as he got out of the school, he was stopped by two people wearing sunglasses and suits, and behind the two was an elongated luxury car.

The car door opened, and there was a person in the car who Xia Ming had only seen three times, but was already very familiar, Yang Shengtang!

Yang Shengtang beckoned to him, Xia Ming thought about it, and still got into the car.

Yang Shengtang handed over a glass of champagne: "I apologize for the rudeness in the Panwang Grand View that day......"

Xia Ming took the wine, but he didn't drink it, so he said lightly: "It's easy to say." ”

"Afraid of alcohol?" A touch of disdain slipped through Yang Shengtang's eyes: "My vision is sometimes not accurate, but my brain is fine." ”

That is, rectifying such a small role as me is not worth the fishiness of a noble person like you.

Xia Ming said in a sassy tone that a hillbilly had bought a city hukou: "There's no need to go around in circles with me to engage in scientific research, just say anything directly." ”

The corners of Yang Shengtang's eyes jumped, he took a deep breath, and said his intention: "Since you are Xiaotang's assistant, you should know the relationship between me and Xiaotang, and frankly...... There are some problems between me and her, and I am looking for you today, in addition to apologizing, I also hope that you can help me. ”

Yang Shengtang's low posture surprised Xia Ming, it seems that this person's double business can still be saved.

"Xiaotang is indeed a genius, but she is a woman after all, strictly speaking, she is still just a child, and she does not realize that in addition to hobbies, there are responsibilities. Speaking of which, it's a pity, do you know that Xiaotang's parents died last year because of an accident? ”

Yang Shengtang was a little sad, and Xia Ming's heart sank, as if he had heard someone say this.

"Xiaotang's father, my father, and Professor Xu are not only classmates and friends, but also like-minded partners, and in their careers, Ellillo is just a small role in the front desk. After Xiaotang's father died, the position was left to her, she was excellent from a young age, and we all believe that she can take on such a responsibility. ”

Yang Shengtang turned his wine glass and looked directly at Xia Ming, Xia Ming didn't speak, only nodded and signaled to continue.

But she focused on unbridled scientific research to create a living artificial intelligence? This kind of nonsense is only believed by those science fiction fans! But it's not her fault, she's just bewitched by Professor Xu. Professor Xu has gone mad and knows why he doesn't do research in the United States, where conditions are better? Because his research is not only supported by us, but also by the academic community over there, he came here. ”

Listening to Yang Shengtang talk about Professor Xu and the institute, Xia Ming felt that he should make a statement: "Mr. Yang, as a member of the institute, I have heard enough of the layman's arguments like you. ”

"Layman? Ha ......" Yang Shengtang argued: "I am indeed a layman, but so many scientists and geniuses in the United States, they are also laymen? ”

"The setting of the ultimate goal and the actual research are two different things, of course, the direction is the same", Xia Ming only issued a statement, too lazy to do popular science.

Yang Shengtang did not continue on this topic: "Even if it is meaningful, it is not worthy of Xiaotang at all." Her genius, her beauty, shouldn't there be a broader stage? ”

Yang Shengtang's words were a little sincere: "She is still young, and she is still very rebellious in her bones, and she doesn't like to listen to me anymore." You are about the same age as Xiaotang, she should be able to listen to your words. I hope you can let her see more of the outside world, so that she understands how wonderful the outside world is. Horse racing, yachting, culture and philanthropy, there are so many things that can make her show her talent and brilliance, I will arrange specific things, and you will persuade her to get used to these lives little by little. ”

"This is also good for you, I know that you have made a lot of money from dreams, but for our world, it is status that brings money, and such a status is not something that money can exchange, let alone your money......"

Yang Shengtang said in a sarcastic tone: "You should know that Persson is the guy who made the game "Minecraft". He sold the game to Microsoft, was worth more than a billion dollars, and could buy a Beverly Hills mansion at will, but he wasn't happy at all, because he couldn't squeeze into our world, and he was always a hillbilly in front of us. ”

He looked at Xia Ming, and his words were deep: "In Plato's ideal country, it is the philosopher king who rules the world, and in reality, it is people like us who rule the world, scientists? He has always been a servant, and can only kneel at our feet, chasing the apples we throw out. ”

Xia Ming was silent for a while before speaking: "I thought about what kind of person she is just now, and then I realized that she is the most beautiful only when she talks about science, research, the nature of this world, and how to transform this world. ”

He looked at Yang Shengtang with pity: "People like you may still rule the world, but you don't hear the ...... outside the window."

The words were interrupted by the ringtone of the mobile phone, Xia Ming saw that it was Zhang Zhicheng, and ignored Yang Shengtang, and went straight. In the next second, he kept taking the mobile phone from his ear, and Zhang Zhicheng's roar shook his eardrums.

"For three hours, the Android and iOS paid charts were the first place! Xiao Xia, we succeeded! ”

The reason why Zhang Zhicheng brought Xia Ming on was not because Xia Ming worked overtime to get him the anti-cracking protective case for Android and iOS, but because the Mengzhen propaganda team used the gimmick created in Panwang Daguan to directly use the "uncrackable black technology" as the propaganda point, not only earned enough eyeballs, but also listened to Zhang Zhicheng's excitement and earned enough real money It is an established fact.

Turning off his mobile phone, Xia Ming continued: "You didn't hear the wind and rain outside the window, the world is about to change, people like Xiaotang are holding the rope, waiting to ring the death knell of the old era."

Xia Ming's tone was very sincere: "You also know that there is a problem in the relationship with Xiaotang, but you don't know where the problem is, let me tell you......"

He looked directly at Yang Shengtang, and suddenly felt that the "discrimination" in Tang Xiaotang's dictionary had also been included in his own dictionary, and now he was discriminating against Yang Shengtang. In a sense, people like Yang Shengtang are like ants in front of him and Tang Xiaotang.

His words made Yang Shengtang's expression instantly collapse: "You never realized how humble a mortal like you is in front of Xiaotang. ”

"Queen...... Xiaotang ......"

Yang Shengtang muttered for a while, and his eyes became sharp again: "I really didn't expect that you are still such a person who doesn't know the height of the sky!" Xiaotang is what you can call, is it what you are qualified to pursue? ”

This one...... You really misunderstood me, Xia Ming smiled bitterly, but he didn't want to explain, and he had no obligation to explain to Yang Shengtang.

Yang Shengtang could no longer maintain his gentlemanly demeanor, and said with a blue face: "Don't eat the toast, eat the wine with an iron heart?" Do you think that if you hide in the research institute and hide behind Xiaotang, you can ......"

Before he finished speaking, Xia Ming took a sip of the previous glass of champagne, and then sipped it, as if he had just heard Yang Shengtang's words, scratched his head and said, "I'm thirsty, I'm sorry, I didn't mean that." ”

What does that mean?

Of course, there was no way to continue the conversation, got out of the car, and watched the extended car go away, Xia Ming still had a little regret, he should ask Yang Shengtang, what brand is this clam shell essence logo......
