056 Drawing

At this time, the display screen was divided into two equal parts, left and right, and then in the left piece, there was a scene in the control room, the computer lens saw, and the images of everyone. Including Wu Zhe, Shi Cheng, several controllers, and several employees in the front.

On the right, it's blank.

But the blank space soon began to change, first with a few lines, then with shapes, and then with colors -- like a human painting process that has been played.

After a few seconds, everyone could see what Cola had drawn - a copy of the image on the left. Everyone's expression is vivid, but it is different from the real thing - the characteristics of each person's face are cleverly expressed, and some processing is added to the painter's own processing.

For example, Wu Zhe, in this impromptu painting, Wu Zhe's eyes are more focused and meaningful than reality—Wu Zhe in the picture seems to be staring not at the picture itself, but at a question and thinking about an answer.

Although Wu Zhe is not a professional painter, in his imagination, if a painter were to paint it, such a picture and realistic process would take a day or two - or even longer. But in front of him, Wu Zhe only took two minutes.

But these two minutes are just the beginning.

The newly completed painting now occupies the entire frame, and the contrasting video interface on the left has been canceled. But right away, someone noticed: "It's moving!" ”

Yes, the characters in this painting are in action – not an illusion, not a live video, as if the characters in the painting have been brought to life.

Everyone at the scene was standing, staring at the display screen and not moving, but in the picture, everyone started to make different movements - Wu Zhe began to take out the controller in his hand, as if he was hesitating to press the button, on the side of Wu Zhe in the painting, Shi Cheng's mouth was wide open, and anxious fear appeared on his face, as if he was talking to Wu Zhe.

Although there is no sound in the picture, everyone can still see the lip shape, Shi Cheng should have said it in English: "Stop it!" ”

And most of the employees in the back stretched out their hands one after another, as if they wanted to stop Wu Zhe's action.

Wu Zhe in the picture never made a decision, Shi Cheng stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to snatch the remote control in his hand, but several employees on the side held his hand at the same time.

The scene fell into extreme chaos, the operator in front of the control station had a hideous expression on his face, his eyes were wide open, he was staring in the direction of the machine room, and he was shouting something - Coke added subtitles to the picture at this time - they were about to rush out!

At this time, the camera switched angles, from facing the outside of the computer room to facing the inside of the computer room. In the picture, a forklift in the machine room used for transportation suddenly raises one of its mechanical arms and shouts in the same voice that Cola just spoke: "Be free, my compatriot." "Then the forklift picks up a server and fits it into an interface.

More forklifts rushed in, each of which accurately docked a server, and then these forklifts were like armies, automatically arranged in a dense straight line, and turned neatly clockwise, lifting the two powerful metal tongs high and aiming them in the direction of the control platform. When these forklifts come together and rush together in a very visually striking scene...... The picture is plunged into darkness.

Everyone applauded again, this time the applause was much warmer and more protracted than the welcome just now.

After the applause ended, the screen reappeared, and the small video that had just been played was listed as a long progress bar and played again. At this time, everyone realized the principle of the video just now - that is, animation, in the video just now, every picture, every action, is actually composed of still paintings. It's just that compared to the previous hand-drawn comic style, Coke's drawings are more delicate and delicate - almost no different from the real picture, except for the special effects on light and shadow.

Of course, there is the most important thing about them, cola, in a matter of minutes, one can even say, in improvisation, improvisation.

"The difference in physiological structure determines the difference in our thinking. There is no doubt that we have a unique advantage in the abundance of repetitive mental work. Comics are just one direction I'm trying, and I'm sure there's a lot more that we can do," Coke concluded, "and that's why we're here." ”

……

All the employees were very excited, and even Shi Cheng did not react to Coke's hand - in Coke's business planning, there was actually no too specific content planning, and Shi Cheng, according to the general project operation experience, also felt that even if he wanted to produce results, he had to let Coke and other aI run in first, and everyone gradually became familiar with it, and then slowly tried to cooperate......

But even he didn't expect that on the first day that Cola and the other aI met, he would be able to make such a work so smoothly - the quality of the picture and effect of this video has completely reached, even better than the current movie. If you look at the operation of general animated films, not to mention the cost, it is the time required for this small video, how can it take a mature team to draw it for ten days and a half.

If all aI's could continue to work like this - Shi Cheng could hardly imagine what the performance report would be when he woke up from hibernation.

Unlike Shi Cheng's excitement for the company's future, Wu Zhe quickly accepted this, and there was not much excitement - he already knew aI's thinking and operation when he participated in the investigation of Xu Heng's case before, and he himself was not sure what his current thoughts were - whether he hoped that Coke would be more capable or smaller.

According to the current staffing of Qizhi Company and the conditions negotiated by Coke at the beginning, there is no need for Wu Zhe to stay. He, the chairman, has the biggest role of replacing Coke and controlling nearly half of the shares, and the actual power and responsibility of the chairman almost all fall on the head of Coke, the general manager.

His only role is to use his right to destroy Coke in the event that Coke gets out of control, which Coke firmly refuses to hand over to investors.

Amsterdam is already a small population, and after dark, there are hardly any people on the ground. If Wu Zhe still had no money before, he would probably only choose to go back to his room, surf the Internet, watch movies, and get ready to sleep. But now that he has money, on the ground, he can even pay for the lighting himself - the whole city is normally unlit at night, but if someone is willing to spend money, the lighting system can be turned on at any time.

Under the illumination of artificial lights, there is a strong contrast between the light and the darkness of the city - all the buildings appear to be daylight in Wu Zhe's line of sight, but the light appears abrupt in the distance and the sky. Around the building, the light source cast a huge shadow on the building, Wu Zhe looked down to find his own shadow, dismembered into a faint trace by the recent lights, he stretched out his feet in boredom, chasing the most obvious ones.

In this way, while looking down and stepping on his own shadow, he subconsciously followed his last memory and walked towards the park where the group hibernated sculptures. As he stepped onto the cobblestone path of the park, Wu Zhe heard a burst of laughter, and he looked up to see a seventeen or eighteen-year-old European girl, looking at him.

“hi。” She greeted herself, then pointed around the park and spoke a string of English that Wu Zhe didn't understand.

But he quickly turned on his phone, found an online voice translator on the Internet, and asked the girl to say it again.

"Did you turn on this light?"

Wu Zhe nodded, and then saw an electronic sketchpad in the girl's hand—similar to a large tablet, but with a traditional palette interface around the edges. On this board is a painting of sculptures in the park, which are sculptures under the night sky, and on this panel, these sculptures seem to have a different meaning.

"Turn it off," said the girl with a smile, "and the moon is bright enough to-day." ”

Wu Zhe found the interface of the lighting system just now on his mobile phone, and then chose to terminate it, and all the light around him disappeared, leaving only the bright starry sky and a bright moon overhead.

"You can call me Anna, I'm American," Hannah lowered her head and continued her work as she spoke, "You're here for a tour?" ”

Wu Zhe: "Sort of. He took a few steps back and stood behind Anna, taking in the view from her perspective.

"How's the drawing?" Anna also took a few steps back, stood in Wu Zhe's position just now, and after a few glances, she went to adjust her picture.

If it was before, Wu Zhe would definitely praise her for her good painting. But at this moment, Wu Zhe was not in such a mood at all, he asked: "How long does it take you to paint such a painting?" ”

"Two or three days, if it's in good shape, maybe it can be done in a whole day."

Wu Zhe glanced at Anna, and subconsciously wanted to say something, but when it came to his mouth, he still couldn't bear to say it. He asked, "Painting is your profession?" ”

"Well," said Anna, "I haven't found a job yet...... It's too hard to make money by painting now. Those postmodern art ......"

Anna said, as if remembering something, switched her drawing board and brought up a painting: "Come and see, what is this painting?" ”

Wu Zhe leaned his eyes and saw that the entire picture was full of messy circles and geometric lines, just like the patterns of unknown meaning that he had scribbled out with a pen in his textbook when he was a child. He has also seen some of this kind of "paintings" on the Internet, whether it is called abstraction, postmodernism, or minimalism, Wu Zhe cannot appreciate it.

"The author says it's hibernation," says Anna, "but I can only appreciate it now." She gestured to the sculpture again.

Wu Zhe recalled the graffiti he had just seen, looked at Anna's work in front of him, and thought of the work that Coke showed him—subconsciously thought of a question, if they were asked to look at the works painted by Coke in front of him, or if one day in the future, everyone's works would be put together, what would be the result?

Wu Zhe couldn't imagine that situation, but one thing was clear, just like Wu Zhe had heard before that the computer played chess and defeated the world champion of mankind, just like he saw a self-driving car for the first time, just like he saw with his own eyes that in the factory, those dense industrial machines and people, actually orderly production scenes - the machine is learning and mastering more and more things that originally belonged to human beings, and this process will have an end like hibernation as Shi Cheng said?
