“…… Of course, it is limited to the talent of writing code, after all, Dou Gong, our Dean Ning's talent is more in scientific research, and he often tells us that technology is actually different from science. Science can tell us what technology can think, and what technology is a fool's dream. Of course, technology is something we can make as long as we are willing to do it. ”

Dou Liao Zhen silently looked at Zhuo Ming on the other side and talked eloquently, probably able to judge why this Director Zhuo could have such a status in the base.

Most people who really know how to pat sycophants in any era will not suffer.

However, there was more disappointment in my heart, not disappointment in Zhuo Mingqian, but disappointment in Ning Xiao.

He thought that a young and talented scholar like Ning Xiao should be different, at least in terms of human weakness and different from those old people who have already achieved fame. But I didn't expect that Ning Xiao's side was still this kind of sycophant king who would be reused.

It's really disappointing.

So no matter how much Zhuo Mingqian said, he just smiled. But in the bottom of my heart, I was naturally unconvinced.

Once a stubborn technical talent like Dou Liaozhen has put a certain stamp on someone, it is difficult to change his opinion. Won't even care about showing it.

And a person like Zhuo Mingqian, who knows how to observe words and emotions the most, can naturally see the trace of contempt in Dou Liaozhen's eyes that he doesn't even disdain to hide, even if he just laughs, he doesn't talk nonsense.

Explanations are not necessary.

Everyone has their own code of conduct, and so does Zhuo Mingqian. If someone thinks that he is on the back of the ass, Zhuo Mingqian will only think that person is superficial.

Only those who have really stayed by Ning Xiao's side know that this young man is not so easy to be fooled.

This base seems to be very large, but what happens every day, Ning Xiao seems to know as long as he wants to know.

Thinking about this made Zhuo Mingqian feel shocked.

It was as if there was a pair of hidden eyes helping Ning Xiao pay attention to the every move of everyone in the base. Zhuo Mingqian knew these things because he was beaten by Ning Xiao a lot, and because he knew this, any of his decisions and codes of conduct would be strictly in accordance with the rules set by Ning Xiao, so he could have a status that everyone admired.

Some people know more, and they will lose ground. Some people know more and will use what they know to make themselves invincible.

Zhuo Mingqian belongs to the latter, he doesn't mind being in front of others, and he helps Ning Xiao bear all the notoriety and complaints, so that everyone's dissatisfaction is concentrated on him, to maintain the rules set by Ning Xiao. That's the key reason why he can be trusted all the time.

As for sycophancy......

Thinking of Zhuo Mingqian, he was depressed, if Ning Xiao really just liked to be praised without a trace, then he probably wouldn't have been left in the countryside for a whole year.

Of course, he didn't bother to explain these things to Dou Liaozhen.

After seeing that this self-conscious old man was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, he actually didn't bother to talk nonsense with the two of them anymore, and after a few words of greeting, he directly began to lead the way.

"Two, I'll take you to the parlor first. Today is a rare and lively day, and many friends have come over. By the way, Mr. Cook is also here, and I asked Mr. Ge just now. Zhuo Mingqian said to Ge Dongshu with a smile.

"Tim Cook is here too?"

"Isn't it, hey, Dean Ning also attaches great importance to this viewing event, and he began to post heroes last month and invited many people to come. Not only Mr. Cook, but also Mr. Robert Plett, CEO of Boston Dynamics, also came, and they all rested in the VIP room. ”

"What are you going to do with them? Could it be that Dean Ning is planning to divide the cake again? ”

"Haha, I don't know. However, Dean Ning said something before, saying that in the future, we will enter the era of the great universe, and we Chinese people are actually more suitable for Shoucheng, that is, staying in the old home of the solar system to open up wasteland and farm everywhere, and improve the survival resilience of the overall human civilization; The spirit in the bones of Western civilization is more suitable for pioneering, driving a spaceship to explore, and lighting up a new map. The division of labor and cooperation is the best, so we must maintain the way of communication at all times, and we can't hit people with one shot. ”

Zhuo Mingqian said while leading the way in front.

Ge Dongshu and Dou Liaozhen, who were following behind Zhuo Mingqian, glanced at each other, and the two of them had no objection to this assertion.

But listening to Ning Xiao's meaning, will he still have to provide a spaceship for the group of people in the west to sail far in the future?

And so on, the premise to be provided seems to be that it has to be there first.

Speaking of which, after the discovery of the negative mass matter, it was rumored that the base had been developing anti-gravity spacecraft.

It's just that I haven't heard of the progress of the development so far.

So Ge Dongshu subconsciously asked, "Dean Naning is entertaining those distinguished guests?" ”

Zhuo Mingqian smiled: "Haha, how is it possible?" Dean Ning went to the laboratory early this morning, and he hasn't come out yet. I guess I won't be able to come out to meet you until the time I booked. After all, there can be no flaws in today's display. Not only the future commercial operation, but also the mysterious big man who came to visit today. Zhuo Mingqian said mysteriously.

"How mysterious?" Dou Liao Zhen finally couldn't help but ask.

"Haha, mysterious, of course I can't say it, but his old man has actually entered the laboratory, and he should plan to go back first after reading it, so our Dean Ning is probably already demonstrating now."

Zhuo Mingqian smiled very arrogantly, Dou Liao really glared at this guy, but he was helpless.

However, if you think that Ning Xiao can personally let down a distinguished guest like Tim Cook and go to receive a big person, his status must be extremely high.

Of course, if the N1 robot can really meet the series of standards given by the previous R&D base, it is not too important to pay too much attention. After all, it's a game changer.

……

The huge underground laboratory test base, a robot with a silver metallic sheen all over is particularly eye-catching.

The robot is about two and a half meters tall and has a silvery sheen all around it.

It is said to be a humanoid robot, but it is similar to the body shape of a human, the head is square, the position of the human forehead, and there is a long opening, and the limbs are not the same as humans, this robot has four robotic arms, two on the left and right.

In addition to the two robotic arms on its shoulders, which are the same as those of humans, there are also two shorter robotic arms at the waist. The two extra robotic arms also mean that more and more complex engineering tasks can be completed. At this moment, after receiving the order, the robot also moved in an orderly manner.

First of all, the most basic construction task, I saw that the robot first came to the pile of materials, began to clean up the messy materials, it only took ten minutes, the stacked various wood and steel bars were sorted by the robot to clean up, the whole finishing process can even be described as pleasing to the eye.

"This seems to be just the simplest job, but in fact it is difficult to do this, the important thing is the coordination of the body and the dexterity of the joints, which require the cooperation of software and hardware, especially the cooperation of motion algorithms. In addition to this, there is the ability to understand instructions.

For example, tidying up seems to be a simple word, but maybe a five-year-old child can understand the meaning of tidying. But how to organize and to what extent the task is completed is a very subjective concept. Even everyone's concept is different. How to make the robot understand the standard of sorting is a very difficult learning process.

But as you can see now, our robots are very good at understanding and coordinating their movements. Not only can it understand and complete these instructions independently, but if it is given more detailed instructions, such as entering an architectural drawing, it can even complete more specific construction matters.

Its structure and surface plating are made of special protective materials. It can withstand space radiation, can ensure that it can withstand the temperature difference of 200 degrees, and the driving layer protected by the core can continue to work for 13 hours at a low temperature of 200 degrees. If our nuclear power miniaturization technology continues to develop in the future, and it can be equipped with a nuclear power supply system, the continuous working time will be calculated on an annual basis. ”

Outside the large venue, Ning Xiao, who had changed into a white uniform, was introducing the latest achievements of the base to the old people around him.

March stood at Ning Xiao's feet, staring at two kittens, and the head-brained robot under the viewer worked tirelessly there.

It turns out that by solving these problems with their balance of motion, these robots are capable of working far beyond that of humans.

"Well, yes, yes, so this robot is designed to replace manual engineering construction? Especially the construction of engineering in outer space? The old man nodded and asked.

"On the one hand, the N1 robot is actually a general-purpose robot, and what it is used for depends mainly on what kind of tools the robotic arm is equipped with. Its four robotic arms can be embedded with up to 157 different tools, and it will be the most reliable engineering construction personnel, and we have tested it to build a small wooden structure of about 100 square meters according to the design drawings in only 67 hours and 39 minutes.

But it is also a mobile scientific research platform that can replace humans to do some high-risk laboratory work. For example, high-risk geological exploration, deep well collection, diving exploration and other work can be competent. At the same time, it can also replace humans to carry out various tests in the chemical field, especially in the field of biochemical ring materials, and it is more efficient and accurate to replace humans to carry out various repetitive tests.

The base has popularized this N1SDP experimental robot in several key laboratories, and with the assistance of our researchers, we have jointly completed many different types of experiments such as protein synthesis, gene editing, catalyst synthesis, testing, new material preparation, gene sequencing research, etc.

At the same time, we have also been cooperating with the Institute of Geology under the Huaxia Nuclear Industry Group, and the exploration robot has been sent to the uninhabited area of China with their engineers to carry out geological exploration tasks, but the current feedback data is not enough, and the field exploration operation needs to solve more problems, especially in the case of complex terrain, the balance algorithm of the robot is also more complex. ”

Ning Xiao opened the large screen of the viewing platform while introducing, and began to play the video recording of the operation of the N1 robot as a scientific research platform. In the video, the robot that is almost the same as the one in front of you is completing various high-precision tests in a laboratory environment.

It must be admitted that the stability of the robotic arm is incomparable to that of humans.

In particular, a variety of operations that require extreme precision, captured by multiple high-definition and macro cameras, make the testing process of these robots full of beauty.

"Young, this is really a general-purpose robot! It seems that you can do anything. The old man looked at the footage recorded in the video, smiled, and commented.

Ning Xiao shrugged his shoulders and said, "Theoretically, this is true, but the adaptation of the supporting algorithm is a big trouble." We have designed a huge database for the N1 robot to select adaptive algorithms, and the current flaw is that each switching algorithm involves high-quality data transmission. On the other hand, the collaborative ability of the N1 robot also needs to be adapted to complete automation. ”

"What do you mean?"

"The reliability of the robot, especially the safety redundancy design, needs to be optimized and upgraded. Especially if you want to equip this robot with weapons, you also need to enrich the corresponding algorithms. ”

"Hahaha, you mean that our N1 robot will appear at military parades in the future?"

"Well, at least for now, if a new engineering force is formed, I think the N1 robot is definitely the best choice. Because the database has a very rich corresponding algorithm. In particular, after the Institute of Geology of Huaxia Nuclear Industry Group gives us enough feedback data, we will further upgrade its working algorithm in the complex environment in the field. ”

"Oh, so what's the yield of this robot now?"

"If several industrial groups can reach an agreement as soon as possible, they should be able to assemble 300 N1 robots per month within half a year. However, in order to further expand the production capacity, more partners need to be introduced. At present, it is mainly limited by the output of hundreds of high-precision parts at the joint. However, we also have a simplified version of the design that can be used to produce high-precision parts, and if all goes well, we expect to double the monthly production in a year. ”

"Oh? Why hasn't an agreement been reached yet? ”

Ning Xiao glanced at the old man, thought about it, and explained: "It's mainly because of some supporting problems. To put it simply, they want to according to their own supporting standards, the N1 robot itself is not strong in power reserve, which leads to the problem of battery life, and a series of supporting standardized vehicles are needed for the delivery of outer space, so there is a ready-made optimization scheme, but if it is mass-produced, although the functions are different, but various peripherals must be unified standards.

Determine whose standard to use, in order to lay the relevant production line in a large area, and may be able to save hundreds of billions of additional profits for whoever in the next few years. Therefore, everyone is fighting, as a test base, they are all our partners, and we are not good at using strong regulations, let alone directly stipulating a new standard, because that will waste more resources, so we can only wait for them to compete for a feasible plan. ”

"Oh, that's a lot of work." The old man nodded, and then asked, "Are there any other troubles?" ”

"There are still a lot of troubles, but the technical difficulties have almost been overcome. We already have a production line in our base, but for the time being, we can only meet the needs of experimental robots. By the way, you're here, why don't you go and see the progress of the development of another good thing. ”

"And the good stuff?"

"Whether it's a good thing or not, you'll know when you go see it." Ning Xiao said with a smile.
