When Wu Zhe stood up, only Professor Chen and himself were left in the classroom. He smiled at the professor and was about to leave, but was stopped: "It seems that the sales pitch of our class flower has failed." β
Wu Zhe was stunned for a moment, did not admit it, and did not deny it.
"You're the first person I've ever seen who isn't interested in hibernation," people of this era, no matter what kind of work they do, are much younger than Wu Zhe's impression, Professor Chen looks like he is only in his early thirties, if it weren't for his old-fashioned manners, he looks about the same age as them, "from the last century?" β
"Yes."
"Maybe you don't know, your application for auditing was only approved by me," Professor Chen said, picking up the book on the economics of hibernation, which he himself wrote 20 years ago and is also today's textbook. β
Wu Zhe listened to Professor Chen in class, talked about his intuitive feelings about hibernation, and knew that he was also from the last century, and when Wu Zhe was risked by his parents to hibernate, Professor Chen's father had just been born. According to Professor Chen's own words, when he was engaged in the study of hibernation economics in college, the original intention was to point out that after the hibernation behavior was not controlled, it would inevitably lead to the bad consequences of hibernation - the wonderful thing is that the conclusion of the study was the opposite, and this conclusion also made him the earliest authority in China to study the economy of hibernation.
"I just think my life is good now," Mr. Wu said, "maybe there will be a better future, but I don't want to wait." β
"It's a naΓ―ve idea, the same as when I was younger," Professor Chan said, "but it seems to have proved me wrong." β
Wu Zhe didn't speak, his thoughts were very simple and simple, as long as he was willing, right or wrong didn't matter.
ββI may regret it later, but who knows when it comes to the future.
"What Lu Jingwen sells, if you are not particularly financially tight, you should buy one, it may not be useful now, but sooner or later it will be used."
Wu Zhe was a little puzzled, even if the classmates were selling things among themselves, why did the professor join in.
"Professor Chen, did you buy it too?"
Professor Chen nodded: "As far as I know, most people in this school have bought one. Maybe more in society, especially those like you who have jobs. β
Wu Zhe was a little surprised-Lu Jingwen quietly told him to keep it secret just now.
"There are provisions in our contract," Wu Zhe was still impressed by this clause in the contract, "It is that we cannot replace our work with anything." β
"It's just a company regulation," Professor Chen was a little disdainful, "this is the trend of the future, not to mention a regulation, even if it is a law, it can't stop it." β
"What the hell is it?" Professor Chen's tone of voice now was similar to that carved out of Lu Jingwen's mold just now, with a deliberate, cautious, and mysterious caution, as if the object of their description was a ghost or god, and any direct description of the language was an offense to it, and this caution made Wu Zhe feel a little uncomfortable - just like the previous speeches of Dr. Mei and Manager Li, this vague language seemed to imply Wu Zhe's ignorance.
Professor Chen did not answer directly, but changed the subject: "I have read your class schedule and am interested in computer languages?" β
"I learned this before I hibernated, and now I don't have anything to do, so I just learn to watch."
"I guess the class hasn't started yet."
"Yes, it's going to take two months." Because the professor in charge of teaching computer science is now hibernating, and in two months, one professor will wake up - this is the case in many other classes in universities, especially those famous teachers, where students wait for them to wake up to class, not as in the past, when the teacher is on time and the students don't come to see the mood.
Wu Zhe just watched a movie the other day, which talks about an entertainment star who announced their hibernation plan - and as a result, their fans went to hibernate with them. The movie was a comedy, but by extension, there has been a profound change between the entire hibernation era and the civilization of the past - people can now arrange their own future, or rather, human civilization has lost time.
"When Professor 6 starts the class, you will understand a little more, he is an expert in this area."
"Is it a full professor of the sixth?" Wu Zhe has seen the name of the other party on his class schedule.
"Yes, you've heard of him, too?"
"Not very specific, but knowing that he is famous." 6 He is also a star scholar of his time, and he is famous for a recent Turing Award, in which he is said to have created computer intelligence -- intelligence, not just life.
"Lu Jingwen is the doctoral student he bringed."
Wu Zhe subconsciously wanted to ask, why does a doctoral student come to take the basic course of his freshman year, but he quickly figured out the doubt just now: "You mean that the software is an aI?" β
"I don't know, and I'm not an expert on this handy," Professor Chan said, "I can only say that this is the closest thing I've ever seen to aI." Although before I came into contact with it, I didn't know what an aI was. β
Wu Zhe suddenly thought of the news that helped the author write the book, and then looked at Professor Chen in front of him: "He can help you work?" β
"It's impossible to completely replace it, but it can help a lot," Professor Chen did not shy away from this topic, "I used to make the videos of the previous classes for students, and now, I can use it, maybe one day, it can completely replace me." β
Professor Chen smiled a little bitterly: "That day may not be too far away. β
"I remember you mentioned that sooner or later human beings will go from exploiting people to exploiting people, which is progress."
"It is objective progress, but it is not necessarily the progress of human civilization...... Forget it, don't talk about this. Professor Chen said, took out his mobile phone, and sent a text to Wu Zhe.
"What is this?" Wu Zhe opened it and looked at it, it seemed to be some information, and the content seemed to be related to the economics of hibernation.
"I know you're not a student here, and maybe you're just here because you're interested," Professor Chan said, "but I treat every student here the same." If you're really interested in my class, think it's an assignment. I actually heard it all just now, your wake time will be very long, and in a little more than a month, I will go to hibernation, which is some of the dissertation directions that I am interested in, if you are also interested, you can take the time to drill in the future. β
"How long are you going to hibernate?"
"I don't know, maybe a few years, maybe decades, maybe longer," Professor Chen said easily, "My awakening conditions are rather vague. β
Wu Zhe took a serious look at his own article, which mentioned all the things related to hibernation theory, including many different directions and angles, such as studying the proportion of hibernation, studying the impact of technology on hibernation, and specializing in the study of new laws and new morals produced by hibernation society......
"Hibernation is the biggest social adventure ever undertaken by mankind, and every detail is worth digging into and studying. A person's space and time are too limited. It's just some of the directions I've personally given you, not a task, and you don't have to feel pressured. If you don't want to do it in the future, you can give it to someone else, or go to the Internet to make it public. I just want to see that when I wake up, someone has looked into it. β
Wu Zhe understood a little: "You must not give me more than one task." β
"I've given it to every student, and I can't control how much you can produce, but I hope that what you will research at that time will be more in-depth than what I have given."
Wu Zhe nodded: "I can't guarantee anything, but if I do it, I will leave a copy of the results to your mailbox." β
"That's enough, thank you."
"You're welcome."
