No. 013 Simple Wisdom

The next day, Wei Dongsheng followed Huo Yongshan to look at the house and found that this two-story building was actually the predecessor of an Internet café in his memory. In other words, in Wei Dongsheng's memory, there were a total of five Internet cafes centered on Wu Ping Yigao, two of which were newly opened in 2003. The two-story building that Wei Dongsheng is about to lease will be renovated into an Internet café in a few months if it were not disturbed by Wei Dongsheng's little butterfly. However, how to say it, the past life is the past life, the future is the future, and now this two-story building belongs to Wei Dongsheng's territory.

The two-story building has a total of six rooms, and if you pay another renovation fee, the landlord will also allow it to penetrate the downstairs compartment and decorate it into an Internet café layout. Wei Dongsheng had no intention of stepping into the Internet café industry, vetoed the proposal for renovation fees, replenished the mattress and wardrobe on the same day, and simply renovated this small building as a new home. With a place to live and broadband optical brazing being laid, the demand for computers and servers is more urgent.

The sales volume on September 19 was 69,000 yuan, the sales volume on September 20 was 88,000 yuan, the sales volume on September 21 was 101,000 yuan, and the sales volume on September 22 was 107,000 yuan, with a total sales of 365,000 yuan that week. On Saturday and Sunday, many local banks suspended remittance and transfer business, and the total sales were still able to maintain a positive growth rate, and the next day, Monday, September 23, unsurprisingly ushered in explosive growth, with sales as high as 205,000 on that day, almost twice as much as Sunday. In five days, the total sales were about 570,000 yuan, which was calculated with 60% dividends, which was a profit of 342,000 yuan.

In just five days after the game studio opened, it brought Wei Dongsheng 340,000 yuan in income, which is really an amazing profit.

After all, the first pot of gold is only the first pot of gold, and Wei Dongsheng can't stand still and eat his old book. On September 24, Wei Dongsheng borrowed 30% of Huo Yongshan's dividends to make 500,000 yuan, asked Huo Yongshan to borrow three vans, and led four tall student agents to Lutong City, the provincial capital. On the evening of September 26, Wei Dongsheng rushed back to the Internet café and was surprised to find a group of student agents celebrating happily: "What's the matter? ”

Huo Yongshan trembled and handed over three business lists:

On September 24, the sales volume was 336,000;

On September 25, the sales volume was 433,000;

On September 26, sales were 554,000.

The daily sales in the past few days have increased at an alarming rate, and on September 26, the circle money was 554,000, which made Huo Yongshan both surprised and harmed. Wei Dongsheng was also quite surprised, but if he thought about it carefully, such a miracle was a matter of course.

First of all, in the surrounding market environment of online games in 2002, the density of game studios was relatively sparse, and their profit methods were still at a low level of repetitive labor such as auxiliary plug-ins or gold coins, and they did not copy equipment as freely as Wei Dongsheng did. In addition, Legend is currently a point card timing online game, and the operator relies on the player's game online time to make money, deliberately adjusting the explosion rate of related weapons and equipment to a very low level, objectively causing a vast market demand.

According to the network search, the legendary operator Sheng Xingda's total monthly revenue in June 2002 was 3.7 million US dollars, equivalent to 30.62 million yuan, equivalent to daily sales of 1.02 million. At first glance, the game studio's daily sales have reached 554,000 yuan, and it still maintains a terrifying positive growth rate, isn't it possible to make more money than Sheng Xingda?

How is this possible!

However, nothing is impossible.

Wei Dongsheng's game studio is very similar in nature to a money-making mall for free-to-play games. No matter how rich a player is, if he wants to spend again, what he contributes to Shengxing is still a point card, and the few yuan calculated by online time is no different from that of a poor player; Under Wei Dongsheng's game studio model, a wealthy player who is willing to invest can generate tens of thousands of yuan or even hundreds of thousands of yuan in profits, which is more efficient than tens of millions of times that of the hourly payment model. It's no surprise that Wei Dongsheng's game studio grabbed the pockets of a handful of wealthy players and chased half or even the same amount of Shanda Day's sales.

Of course, Wei Dongsheng's game studio has no roots to make money. Legend is a product of Sheng Xingda, Shanda noticed the fluctuation of the number of equipment and began to track and investigate, or simply modify and improve the explosion rate of the corresponding equipment, or fill the backdoor loophole of the server, and the income of the game studio was instantly reduced to zero.

No matter how much money is made now, it can't change the fact that it can't last long.

Thinking of this, Wei Dongsheng dispersed the surprise and calmly praised it.

After celebrating with Huo Yongshan for more than ten minutes, Wei Dongsheng said: "Do you remember the customized multi-layer bed iron frame two days ago?" Today, they left work early and helped me move the iron shelves and the computer I bought to the second-story building. ”

Huo Yongshan remembered the reason why Wei Dongsheng was running around in the past few days: "I bought the computer? ”

Wei Dongsheng: "I bought it." ”

Huo Yongshan: "How many did you buy?" ”

Wei Dongsheng: "Wutai." ”

Huo Yongshan looked at Wei Dongsheng in embarrassment: "You borrowed three cars and traveled thousands of miles to the provincial capital, so you bought five computers?" ”

Wei Dongsheng: "There are three more servers. ”

Huo Yongshan sighed and expressed his understanding: "The iron shelf has been transported to the outside of the two-story building, I don't know how you laid it out, so I didn't move into the house." I called them to help move the iron shelves and computers. ”

The three vans had limited capacity and could not fit too many students. Wei Dongsheng supervised the three vans back to the second-floor building, and Huo Yongshan led more than 20 students to arrive by other means of transportation. This group of students, including the first year of high school, the second and third year of high school, although they are not young and strong, they are also superior to the crowd. In less than half an hour, the bed-type iron shelves filled the two rooms on the second floor according to Wei Dongsheng's idea. Wei Dongsheng checked and determined that there was no problem, and issued a new order: "There is a room with an iron frame bed, and there is a server in each room; Three computers and another server were moved to a vacant room, and the other two computers were placed in the lobby on the first floor. ”

The student lacked computer literacy, so Wei Dongsheng returned to the van and explained in detail which server was the server and which house to move to. Huo Yongshan saw the true faces of the three servers, and said in surprise: "It's not big?" ”

Wei Dongsheng was at a loss: "What's not big?" ”

Huo Yongshan: "I bought five computers and three servers for three vans, I thought the servers were big." Lo and behold, a van was loaded. ”

Wei Dongsheng was embarrassed: "It's not that you haven't seen the server of the Internet café, the size of the Internet café server is not large, how can the server I bought be large." ”

Huo Yongshan: "I'm just wondering, one van can fit it, why do you insist on borrowing three." ”

Wei Dongsheng opened the second van: "In addition to servers and computers, there are other accessories." Fifty sets of motherboards, CPUs, memory modules, hard drives, power supplies and fans, etc., these accessories will be built into 50 simple computers in the future to be used with servers. ”

Huo Yongshan was stunned: "Simple computer? ”

Wei Dongsheng explained simply: "A simple computer is the most basic computer without a display, no keyboard and mouse, no chassis graphics card. ”

Huo Yongshan was even more confused: "There is no keyboard and mouse, and there is no display screen, can this computer play?" ”

Wei Dongsheng didn't say why he didn't need keyboards and mice and other equipment, and simply answered Huo Yongshan's question: "The gameplay is just different." But don't worry, one of the five full-fledged computers is for you, so don't be afraid of not having a keyboard and mouse. ”

Wei Dongsheng didn't explain in detail, and Huo Yongshan didn't ask anymore, because he was just curious. If Wei Dongsheng really explained in detail the usefulness of simple computers, the setting up of servers, and the construction of local area networks, Huo Yongshan would definitely be confused and unable to understand quickly, and then the more he listened, the more boring he became.

The assembly process of a simple computer is very simple, it is nothing more than plugging in the head and screwing in order. Wei Dongsheng first assembled a number of machines, and several students with strong hands-on ability quickly learned to assist Wei Dongsheng to get 50 simple computers, and arranged the lines under the guidance of Wei Dongsheng. By less than 10 p.m., the two-storey building had been renovated, especially the three houses on the second floor, showing a peculiar technology workshop style. After checking the power and confirming that there were no obvious problems, Wei Dongsheng announced the end of the task and invited more than 20 students to eat and drink at night.

After eating, Wei Dongsheng returned to the house, lying on the bed for a while and found that he was not sleepy, and went back to the computer. Activating two of the three computers, Wei Dongsheng set out to assemble a simple smart program that had been hovering in his mind for days. The Simple Wisdom Program, a high-tech program from the Empire of Shadows, reinterprets life in a new way.

What is life?

In other words, to what extent does computer intelligence develop to be considered intelligent?

Some people look up to the work of programmers, believing that computer intelligence can optimize itself and innovate program code to be considered truly intelligent; Some people think highly of human emotions and think that computer intelligence can understand what feelings are and what love is, and they can be regarded as truly intelligent. Movies in popular culture are obviously more inclined to the second setting, Westworld and countless other stories, when fantasizing about the conflict between robots and humans, they all take emotions very seriously, as if love and hate are the basis of robot awakening.

However, the shadow enemy nation does not think so.

From the perspective of the Shadow Empire, love and hatred, especially the idea that love and wisdom are bound together, can only highlight the ego and arrogance of the human beings on Earth.

Human beings are intelligent life, but intelligent life is not limited to human beings. In addition to life in human form, there are many non-human carbon-based life forms in the universe, and there are many various intelligent life forms that are not carbon-based life. The civilizations of the universe have their own characteristics, such as the Shadow Empire, they do not have the concept of marriage and childbearing, because they are hermaphroditic, and the reproductive practice is self-dividing to achieve an increase in the number of races. The citizens of the Shadow Empire are obviously intelligent beings, but they have no concept of marriage, naturally they have no concept of love, and they will never seek death for love.

The citizens of the Shadow Empire have the cultural customs and moral system of the Shadow Empire, don't expect them to worship divine love like in the movie fantasy story.
