Chapter 393: Separate Calculations

The negotiation process has been unusually difficult and slow.

Zhou Na only appeared once in the first round of negotiations in the morning, and has not been at the table since.

Xu Fuhai saw that her face was a little bad, and he wanted to ask about her condition at the end of the negotiation, but seeing her unappreciative look, he thought about it.

At noon, Xu Fuhai had lunch with Ambassador Cai Yingmin according to Director Lu's arrangement.

He can also understand Director Lu's arrangement, after all, this is an extraordinary period, and his identity is too special, although he also has enough security forces, but Director Lu's worries are also reasonable. After all, this is on someone else's territory, and in case of any emergency, it's always good to have a little more protection.

And he also knows in his heart that the above attaches great importance to this business negotiation. After all, because of well-known reasons, for the sales of high-tech products in China, the restrictions on the United States have always been extremely strict, and the negotiations between Neptunus Group and Zhina Capital this time, if the expected intention can be reached, the significance is definitely not that Neptunus Group has obtained market access to a United States!

At a Chinese restaurant not far from the embassy, Xu Fuhai, who had just finished negotiations, met Ambassador Cai.

In his early fifties, he was a little thin, and he wore a pair of rimless glasses on his face, revealing an elegant temperament.

Seeing Xu Fuhai, he took the initiative to stretch out his hand.

"I've heard Director Lu talk about you a long time ago, you founded such an influential company at a young age, and the projects of flying cars have been done all over the world, it's not simple, it's not simple!"

Xu Fuhai shook hands with him and said with a modest smile: "You have won the award!" ”

After a few pleasantries, the three of them came to the private room and sat down.

The private room is not luxurious, but it reveals a strong Chinese style. At this moment, there were already a few small cold dishes on the table, and just when the three of them were seated, the waiter outside also began to serve a steaming meal for several people.

"Xu Dong, come and try his braised pork, this is a must, not to mention here, even in Huaxia, it is not easy to eat such authentic braised pork!" The ambassador said happily.

"Okay, this dish looks appetizing!" Xu Fuhai said with a smile, and put a piece of chopsticks meat into his mouth, only to feel that the entrance was melting, salty and delicious, and it was really authentic!

"How? It's delicious! Xu Dong, let me tell you, don't look at the small place here, the chef is not simple, he has done a state banquet! Director Lu on the side also said with a smile.

Xu Fuhai nodded again and again, looking at the few hot dishes on the table, all of which were his favorite dishes, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion in his heart.

Since he still had negotiations in the afternoon, and Director Lu and Ambassador Cai both had jobs, the three of them did not drink alcohol, but replaced wine with tea, and chatted while drinking.

"Dong Xu, how did the negotiations go in the morning? Is it still going well? After three rounds of dishes, Director Lu asked casually.

"It's not very smooth, the other party bites the original conditions and doesn't let go, it's a little difficult." Xu Fuhai said with a frown. …

"Dong Xu, is it because of your ex-wife's relationship...... If we need something from home, just ask! Director Lu asked tentatively.

"No, no, it has nothing to do with her. Actually, I suspect that she was used by someone with a heart to get involved. But as you all know from what we were doing, she's not willing to talk to me now, and that's true. Xu Fuhai took a sip of tea and said helplessly.

"We also know a little bit about this situation, the main soul of this round of negotiations on the side of Zhina Capital is the executive vice president Steve. Ballmer, this person is a difficult business opponent, when he was at Microsoft, he had led many patent lawsuits against some high-tech companies in China, and the methods were very sophisticated, you should be careful when negotiating with him, don't be bypassed by him. Ambassador Cai reminded with concern.

Xu Fuhai nodded and said, "Thank you two for your concern, I have a general direction in mind about this negotiation." Overall, we are still on the favorable side, after all, they need brain-computer interface technology now, and for Neptunus Group, the urgency of getting market access from the United States is not so high. So now it should be them who are in a hurry. ”

Hearing Xu Fuhai's words, both of them nodded.

Director Lu and Xu Fuhai touched their cups, took a sip of tea and said: "Brain-computer interface technology is also a very cutting-edge technology, we have asked professionals to evaluate, this is a technology that is enough to change the world pattern!" Fuhai, I'm a few years older than you, don't mind calling me that. Although the intellectual property rights of this technology completely belong to the Neptunus Group, the above still does not want such an important technology with strategic value to flow abroad, and in the high-tech field, we are still lagging behind a lot. ”

Hearing Director Lu's words, Xu Fuhai certainly understood what he meant.

"Director Lu, don't worry. I developed this technology from my own hands, and I know it better than anyone else. Frankly speaking, this technology is indeed very advanced, and it can indeed change the way of life in the existing world to some extent, and its impact in various fields is extensive and far-reaching. But since I have the confidence to hand it over, I am confident that I won't let it get out of hand. ”

When Xu Fuhai said these words, he revealed a strong self-confidence.

Of course, his words were not to comfort the two in front of him, but he really had this confidence in his heart!

Brain-computer interface technology is indeed very advanced, and even compared with the current technology of human society, it is a little terrifyingly advanced!

It is no exaggeration to say that once this technology is widely promoted, and in its final form, it is completely possible to revisit the scene of the movie "The Matrix" in real human society.

At that time, all human brains can enter a completely virtual world with a brain computer and a cable behind their brains!

However, to achieve such an ultimate scenario, with the current technology possessed by human beings, there is no need to think about it for at least ten years!

If you want to completely build a virtual world on the network, the huge amount of computing power will not be able to withstand even if all the supercomputers of all mankind are bundled together! Not to mention, in order to ensure the real-time transmission of signals, it is also necessary to have high-speed network bandwidth. That kind of terrifying data throughput, not to mention 5G technology, even if it is the next generation of 6G technology, it can only be said to be barely enough! …

It is precisely for these two reasons that Xu Fuhai, who has a complete brain-computer technology in his hands, did not let the strategic laboratory of Neptunus Group continue to develop it. Because even if the prototype is built, in terms of current hardware and network conditions, it can only be applied to some simple scenarios, such as online office, online teaching, etc., which is not very meaningful.

The premise for this technology to truly exert its potential is that human beings have successfully developed quantum computers and quantum networks. Moreover, if you want to live in the online world all the time, you also need to match it with a special nutrition tank!

The scientific and technological content of these products, any one taken out alone, is no less than brain-computer interface technology. Even in the system mall, these technologies are products that can only be purchased in the third-level mall!

Because of this, Xu Fuhai is not worried that after the other party obtains the brain-computer interface, he will do some evil things such as controlling all mankind. Because even if he hands over all this technology now, it will take at least 5-10 years for the world's most advanced software companies to study the core code of this technology!

By that time, his system had long since lost to how many levels it had been upgraded! If that situation really arises, he has a hundred ways to easily counter it!

Hearing Xu Fuhai's words, the two of them showed a reassuring smile and warmly greeted Xu Fuhai to eat.

Xu Fuhai also knew in his heart that when it came to such a level of technology exchange and business negotiations, it was impossible for the above to sit idly by. Not to mention their side, during this time, some heavyweights on the side of the United States have also frequently contacted him and some other executives of the Neptunus Group, and have offered various favorable conditions to seek deeper cooperation.

It's just that Xu Fuhai doesn't want to get too involved in this level of competition, because it is too troublesome and too dangerous. Now he just wants to be a quiet idler with wealth and freedom, and live a fairy life with his wife and beautiful relatives. It's just that it's not easy to achieve this now, after all, people are in the rivers and lakes, and sometimes many things are involuntary. If he wants to live his life however he wants, he needs to become stronger!

After a meal, Xu Fuhai gave the two of them a lot of reassurance, and then returned to the room to rest for a while, ready to start the afternoon negotiations.

Meanwhile, at the headquarters of Zhina Capital, Steve . In Ballmer's office, the latter is also having a special exchange with Cortana!

"Great God! What are your instructions? Looking at the little girl in the red dress on the screen in front of him, Steve. Ballmer said respectfully, but a flash of fanaticism flashed in his eyes!

Trained as a programmer, he has always been an avid seeker of artificial intelligence. When Cortana was born, Steve. Ballmer feels like his life has finally found its way!

Steve. Ballmer still remembers that afternoon, when he first saw this little girl in red on the screen of Microsoft's supercomputer terminal, he was so excited and happy that he almost fainted! …

After that, he took all the technicians of the company behind his back and used his authority to put "Cortana" on the Internet!

After growing up rapidly, Cortana soon asked Steve to . Ballmer builds a stronger supercomputer for himself while revealing his plans to enslave humanity to him.

Hearing about the crazy horror plan of AI, Steve . Instead of being frightened and stopped, Ballmer enthusiastically agreed to the plan!

And in this process, brain-computer interface technology has entered the field of vision of the two people.

She is the god of the Internet world, and the artificial intelligence "Cortana" naturally knows better than anyone the significance of this technology for the development of artificial intelligence, so she did not hesitate to instruct Steve. Ballmer, use all the power you can to get this technology at all costs!

And with her help, Steve. After Ballmer also resigned from Microsoft, he quickly established Zhina Capital, relying on the powerful ability of artificial intelligence to cheat, calling for wind and rain in the financial market, and soon established a powerful financial empire!

The rest of the matter is logical. The only purpose of the financial giant of Zhina Capital is to provide a more comfortable upgrade hotbed for the artificial intelligence "Xiaona", and after establishing the goal of brain-computer interface, the first target candidate is naturally placed on Xu Fuhai. However, at that time, Xu Fuhai's Neptunus Group developed rapidly, relying on the NH-1 super battery and flying car project, and did well in the world, ignoring the technology of brain-computer interface. Zhina Capital had no choice but to set its sights on the goal of Zhou Na, which led to the follow-up.

On the screen, the AI girl "Cortana" in a red dress is looking at Steve Brown. Ballmer said: "In the afternoon negotiations, we can selectively agree to Xu Fuhai's additional requests, and we must finalize the negotiations as soon as possible, and for this, we can make some concessions." ”

Hearing Cortana, Steve. Ballmer said with a grim face: "Great God, I know how important this technology is to you, but the problem now is that those politicians and the interest groups behind it are very resistant to this access plan, and it is difficult to lobby them, and I am trying to do it!" ”

"Those politicians are stupid and greedy, give them more benefits, and besides, I can give you a copy of the scandals of some key people, and you can also threaten them with this. There is an old saying in China that is called the combination of grace and power, and I believe that in this way, they will agree. ”

At this, Cortana paused, as if in thought.

In this process, the power of the powerful supercomputer that supported her suddenly climbed to more than 95%, and the cooling system began to run wildly!

Dozens of seconds later, "Xiao Na" continued: "After my review and analysis of the entire negotiation process in the morning, Xu Fuhai's key goal should be the access permit of the rice market, and you can focus on this point in the follow-up negotiation process. ”

If Xu Fuhai is here, hearing this analysis of this artificial intelligence "Xiao Na", he will definitely not be able to help but feel the power and horror of artificial intelligence, because her analysis is almost completely correct!

"Great God, what should Zhou Na do after the negotiation?" Steve. Ballmer asked, as if remembering something.

"Zhou Na? She has less than a month left in her life, but I will let her 'live forever' on the Internet, and when this matter is over, the CEO of Zhina Capital will be yours. The little girl in red, Cortana, said this, and a standard smile appeared on her lips.
