Chapter 3 Make a Bet, Senior Sister
Xia Ming rushed to the institute early in the morning, and the beauty named Tangtang was a little surprised.
After staring at him for a while, the beauty shook her head: "You really dare to come..."
Xia Ming's heart skipped a beat, was he discovered?
He came to the institute after a ideological struggle. What is the full name of R3AI? "Human Self-Evolution Project Experimental Type 3 Artificial Intelligence"! What else can it be if it is not produced by this artificial intelligence institute?
Originally, he thought that this was stealing someone’s baby, and maybe he would be dissected in vivo, so he would be better off as far as possible.
Later he changed his mind. This R3AI is completely a black technology. Such a great scientific research project, the country must have strict security measures. A college student who cannot even find any social vitality organization at the block level can escape under the national net of heaven and earth? Will he still have to go home to implicate his parents and fellow villagers?
Besides, he was not intentionally stealing things. Strictly speaking, he was still a victim, so why can’t he talk to the institute upright? The worst case is just a subject of research. As for vivo dissection, there are such rumors on the Internet, but they are just nonsense. He is a journalist and still has discernment in this regard.
Of course, the institute did not find this better. I changed from a third-rate university to a preparation journalist, which was simply a rise in life and a golden road.
Holding a little luck and three points of nervousness, Xia Ming still came.
The beauty said: "Your yelling yesterday scared Aunt Pang very much. When we came out, you disappeared again. I thought you were brave enough to get burned by electric power."
Hey, didn't notice it? Xia Ming breathed a sigh of relief. As for yesterday, he was so scared by the aunt and ran away on the spot. The fat aunt's surname is Pang? It's really... worthy of this surname.
She was so stupid that Xia Ming wanted to exchange a few greetings and ask for a name or something, but the other party didn't give him a chance and took him into the building. He explained the precautions while walking: "The third floor is the data area, the second floor is the office area, and the door over there is the basement, which is not something you can go to. Of course, it is unnecessary to say these..."
What was unnecessary? Xia Ming didn't quite understand, so he followed the beauty into a door.
The space in the door was originally very large, and it was probably connected after two or even three classrooms were opened. Four rows of racks occupied the wall and the center, so what Xia Ming saw was only two narrow passages.
The rack was filled with machines, and Xia Ming didn't have to take a closer look. The room was filled with burnt smell and electronic odor, which made his sense of smell that was ravaged yesterday sound bitter again.
"Linzi! People are here, see if they can be used."
The beauty greeted her and a lion's head stretched out from the end of the passage, which scared Xia Ming. When the other party approached, she saw clearly that it was a guy with a messy hair. He was tall and thin, and his beard was not shaved. He looked like a homeless man, but his eyes were particularly energetic.
"See what it is useful, you will know after using it..."
The lion's head muttered with an unlit cigarette in his head, staring at Xia Ming not like looking at someone, but more like...
"I'll use it now, I'll return the product immediately if it doesn't light it up."
The beauty's words confirmed Xia Ming's guess. These two people regarded him as a CPU or graphics card.
At this time, Xia Ming was still timid: "I am familiar with DIY. I have never touched the server. I have to train first before taking the job, right?"
"DIY and servers are not opposite concepts." Lion Head said while tinkering on the rack. Xia Ming was about to explain that the DIY he said was a personal computer. Lion Head said again: "The server here, the CPU is not Xeon and Power, the memory is not ECC, and the hard disk is not enterprise-level. All the servers here..."
The lion's head waved his hand as if introducing his kingdom: "It's all DIYed on a personal computer."
What the hell……
Only then did Xia Ming notice that the four rows of racks in front of him were not racks at all, but rather shelves. The chassis placed on them were all kinds, not servers with uniform specifications. A brief calculation shows that there are at least thousands of computers in this computer room. This research institute actually uses thousands of personal computers to DIY the server!
"It's really..." Xia Ming almost spit out the word "shrimp". He shuddered and immediately changed his words: "It's like the earliest Google."
When Xia Ming first entered university, he was keen on playing games. He not only learned to install computers, but also had a long time to get involved in the card. He had at least a skin-based understanding of computers and the Internet industries.
The Lion Head was a little happy: "It seems that you know more than just screwing screws and connecting jumpers, so there is no need for training!"
Before Xia Ming could express his opinion, Lion Head handed him a piece of the removed motherboard: "Yesterday, the monitoring server and switch in the computer room were all broken, and I don't know how much the computer was broken. I could only check which computers were good, which only broke the power supply, and which broke other components. I worked all night and checked a little half..."
Xia Ming took over the motherboard that looked like there was nothing wrong, and a premonition arose in his heart.
Sure enough, the lion's head pointed to the shelf against the wall and said, "I'll leave that row to you. We will try to clean up this mess before dinner."
Xia Ming's heart trembled. There were more than 200 computers. The installers in the computer city were not so hard!
After all, the working time is 8 hours and 480 minutes. The computers on that row of shelves are calculated as 240, which means that it only takes two minutes to determine whether a computer is good or bad. If it is bad, it will be bad.
Seeing that he didn't respond, the beauty said, "I was scared? You can choose not to do it."
Xia Ming scratched his head: "It's indeed a bit..."
Then he shook his head: "It's just a strength to work, I'll do it."
He just hesitated whether he could finish it before dinner, and thought again, at worst he could work overtime or even stay up all night. For Xia Ming, who had been accustomed to self-reliance since childhood, this little bit of hardship is nothing.
The beauty twitched slightly: "Strong work? Do you think the institute is a place to move bricks?"
She pointed to the shelves and said, "Think about it, you have to check a computer in two minutes on average, and give you a grace limit of three minutes. There are twenty ones there. I'll watch here. If you can't finish it within an hour, or if there is any error, you can leave."
Xia Ming was stunned and left?
Two minutes is just the theoretical average, and it doesn't make any sense to relax until three minutes. If the computer is good, it will light up at a moment. Add to check the network interface and other components to get it done within half a minute. However, as long as you encounter a broken one, you have to use tools such as multimeter Debug card to determine where the problem is. It will not start for two or three minutes but ten minutes.
Xia Ming understood what she meant when she said "ultrasound" before, and she was deliberately making things difficult for her.
Lion Head coughed: "Xiaotang, don't be so strict, there is a shortage of people now."
The beauty said seriously: "I know there is a shortage of people now, but the more I am at this time, the more I cannot relax the standards. Otherwise, those who came in would be those rats who were greedy and afraid of death yesterday! From now on, even the aunts who were recruiting the floor to sweep the floor can not fool them casually. Just imagine that the floor can be a little dirty today, the code can be written less comment tomorrow, and the program can be debugged less the day after tomorrow..."
The lion's head raised his hand and surrendered: "I said nothing."
Xia Ming frowned. This beauty is beautiful, but she is small enough...
However, he is not without eyesight. Although the beauty is young, her status is not ordinary. She should be a graduate student led by Professor Xu. She is considered a "true disciple" in the research institute. As a "outer junior brother", she should still lower her attitude.
Xia Ming suppressed his anger and politely reminded the other party: "I remember Professor Xu said yesterday..."
"Now I have the final say," the beauty waved her hand, as if the name was a gas: "Professor Xu is Professor Xu, I am me!"
Xia Ming couldn't help but ask seriously: "Classmate, do I have any personal grudges with you?"
Actually, what he wanted to ask is that because I was from a third-rate university, you can't stand me and insist on getting out of here?
The beauty's eyes flashed, she shook her head and said, "No, she just can't stand you."
Well, women are indeed unreasonable...
"If your attitude and ability are fine, you can't stay. I am a clear person." The beauty said, making Xia Ming feel that he had learned Chinese in vain. He looked at his watch and issued an ultimatum: "You only have 58 minutes now."
She picked up her arms and raised her eyebrows like a queen: "Say again, you can choose not to do it."
If it were the past, Xia Ming might have turned around and left. After all, he was a young man with strong energy, so how could he be willing to suffer such anger?
Now Xia Ming's energy is gone, but his emotions have not affected himself. Since his goal is to enter the research institute, he will overcome the difficulties and cannot give up easily.
Xia Ming shook his head again: "I'll do it."
Of course he wasn't the one who swallowed his anger: "If I finish, I can stay, right?"
The beauty nodded: "Of course."
Xia Ming asked again: "When other interns come in, do you also have to do such a test?"
The other party was silent and his eyes turned away.
Xia Ming smiled and said, "It's not fair..."
On the one hand, the lion head muttered, "Yes, it's not fair."
The beauty stared at the lion's head and then said to Xia Ming: "You can really do it, that's because I've left my eyes and I apologized to you."
That's it? Will you even be too lazy to say Apologize and just dump Sorry?
Xia Ming couldn't help but squeeze and said, "There is no need to apologize. There are so many machines here. At that time... the senior sister will share a hundred and eighty units?"
"Senior Sister..." The beauty said with a smile: "No problem!"
The almost bet agreement was established, so Xia Ming took the tools and came to the shelf, thinking about how to start.
The first step is easier to do. First, determine how many good ones are. Connect the tablet in your hand to the computer, turn on it, it will be OK when it is on, and it will be broken if it is not on.
It took nearly ten minutes to check it all. If all twenty units are good, Xia Ming's luck would be amazing and he would win the bet. But Xia Ming was a life of tying in this life, and only six of the twenty units are good.
Now, he only has more than forty minutes left to find out the specific problems of the remaining fourteen computers, which is obviously an impossible task.
The lion head behind sighed: "Little Candy..."
The beauty waved her hand to stop the lion's head and whispered: "It's not that he has to deal with it 100% of the time. It's still his attitude. If God helps him and he doesn't give up, it's not impossible to be a little worse. But it seems that God didn't give him a chance, and he was also timid. Look, he is thinking about making excuses."
Xia Ming was staring at the ceiling, staring blankly. Mobile phone users should visit http://m.piaotian.net
