Chapter 353: The Plan
Although I don't understand why the mysterious master who has high hopes doesn't even know a little bit of information about AI, in the conversation just now, both sides have already made it clear what should be communicated, and Xu Wanmeng can't choose to deliberately conceal information about AI at this time.
She lowered her head and was silent for a long time, as if she was organizing her words, and then with Lin Mo's patient waiting, she finally opened her mouth to tell all the information she knew.
However, what she said was not much different from the truth that her grandfather Xu Shiming told her, it was nothing more than using her own understanding to summarize the events that Xu Shiming had negotiated with AI in the past few years, and then point out some of her own views in it.
By the way, she also omitted some of the content that was "not enough for outsiders".
Lin Mo listened very carefully, and in the process of listening, he learned about the "hidden" plot that he had never been exposed to when he was playing the game, so he also sighed "interesting" from time to time.
In the game Cyberpunk 2077, although he had also seen some of the content of the setting set during the game and understood some of the "stories" behind the game, the information about this part of his brain was blank for the relevant deeds of Xu Shiming, the founder of Kangtao.
Now that he heard Xu Wanmeng personally say that her grandfather Xu Shiming had worked with AI, Lin Mo couldn't help but associate these deeds with some of the content in the game.
No wonder Ott once worked with Kangtao... It's no wonder that Kangtao has developed rapidly under such a competitive cyber worldview...
And in 2077, when the main plot in the game begins, there are not many plots related to Kangtao Company, but one thing is certain, that is, this company is still developing steadily in 2077, and there are no major problems.
In this way, even without his intervention, this data consciousness body originating from Xu Shiming still did not cause any waves?
Or is this AI Xu Shiming actually successful and completely took over all the affairs of Kangtao Company, so that Kangtao Company in 2077 has not been affected in any way... After all, this is only a change at the top of the power class, and it has little to do with the Night City branch.
However, in 2077, one of the branches of Kangtao Company, Qiantai Company, secretly recruited Herman, the director of the RELIC project of Arasaka Company, and RELIC is also born from the technology of the soul killer, will there be any secrets that have not yet been excavated?
Lin Mo pressed his fingers against his temples and fell into a silent thought.
Seeing that Lin Mo had remained silent after listening to his explanation, Xu Wanmeng stopped talking, giving the other party plenty of time to think.
"I really didn't expect it, this AI turned out to be a scourge caused by your grandfather... In this way, the whole thing is very clear, AI wants to make your family members in the 'reality' become the same kind as him, and live with him in the cyberspace in the future, and live forever together..."Lin Mo expressed his understanding.
"Well, that's part of the truth I've analyzed... In fact, we still don't know the full picture of the specific goals of AI. Xu Wanmeng said regretfully.
Lin Mo seems to be very indifferent, anyway, even if things develop to the most critical moment, AI Xu Shiming's main target will not be on him, he is now just a spoiler who suddenly broke into the chess game.
However, now that he finally knew who his enemy was, he felt a lot more relaxed, holding his hands on the back of his head and leaning back slightly, looking up at the starry sky.
After a long time, he said meaningfully:
"Whatever his ultimate goal is, he just wants to turn you and your brother into data consciousnesses right now, and as long as we have this information in hand, it will be enough for us."
Xu Wanmeng's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she inexplicably felt that Lin Mo's words were a little ill-intentioned, and there was a hint of bad premonition in her heart.
"Why did Mr. Mu say that?" She asked.
Lin Mo smiled lightly and said as a matter of course:
"Now that we know the other party's goal, can't we lure him out?"
"Mr. Mu... Do you want to..."The corners of Xu Wanmeng's mouth twitched, the expression on her face lost control for the first time, and she squinted her eyes and looked at Lin Mo a little wordlessly.
Under Xu Wanmeng's frightened gaze, Lin Mo said his plan very naturally:
"Actually, I've always liked to use simple and crude methods to deal with the enemy, and most of the time we don't need to rack our brains to come up with complex schemes."
"I believe that you should understand that an AI wandering in cyberspace is in a sense a ghost wandering in the online world, and it is no less difficult to find a trace of AI in that monotonous but complex and changeable world, otherwise it is impossible for hackers within your company to have no results so far."
Xu Wanmeng's eyes had become slightly cold, and there was a hint of danger in her slightly narrowed eyes.
"Does Mr. Mu want Wanmeng and Wanmeng's family to act as bait and then attract the appearance of AI?"
Syllable!
Lin Mo snapped his fingers, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he looked at Xu Wanmeng's eyes as if to say, "The child can be taught."
"You're right, that's how I planned it, isn't it easy? All I have to do is wait for that AI to be lured out, and my teammates and I will be able to attack it in groups, and I'm sure I'll be able to take out the AI in one fell swoop! He confidently stated his plan, as if it was quite clever, ignoring Xu Wanmeng's increasingly ugly expression.
"Mr. Mu... Are you really not kidding? Xu Wanmeng had a "defeated" expression, and she began to doubt Lin Mo's professional ability.
How can there be such a bastard plan to let the client/boss go out and act as bait!
With the current scale of power of Kangtao Company and Xu Wanmeng's status within the company, in ancient times, her power is definitely not inferior to that of a king.
Even if we look at the past, at most, only those loyal ministers who did not care for their lives dared to advise the emperor to let them go to the dangerous battlefield to boost the morale of the soldiers.
Even so, it is still possible to anger those emperors who have grown up in the deep palace since childhood and are not familiar with warfare.
Xu Wanmeng feels that she does not lack the courage to "drive the expedition", she has also had hacking skills since elementary school, and the education she has received since childhood also makes her definitely not inferior to any senior hacker, and she can also wrestle with the elite hackers in the company.
But now it's good...
I have heard of those who dare to admonish the emperor to "drive the imperial expedition in person", but I have not heard of those who dare to admonish the emperor "Your Majesty and be a bait, and the minister is bound to destroy the enemy army".
The so-called masters, is their thinking so strange?
Xu Wanmeng wanted to know if Lin Mo was joking when he said this.
