Chapter 34: Next Steps
In the Q group called "Kaba Sanxian Gay Friends Group", Xia Ming was speechless for a long time after leaving the stage.
Xia Ming had already given the advisory group a lot of excitement. After Cicada Dong came into contact with Google, the war almost stopped. Although everyone already knew that Cicada Dong had reached this point, Prometheus was able to pull Google out to provide a guarantee, which exceeded everyone's most optimistic expectations, but now when he heard Xia Ming say sorry, the hundreds of people in the advisory group still felt uncomfortable.
After a while, the member with ID "superficial" said: "I have an idea."
I immediately spoke to a bunch of speeches below.
[I also have an idea. Prometheus's philosophy cannot be pushed by cicadas alone, as the pressure is too great.]
[I think it's meaningless to just slap teeth in Q group.]
【That's what we mean! What should we do!】
[It is not convenient to go to Q group. There are too many people and too many people. If you talk about it, it is easy to be penetrated and controlled by people.]
[How about setting up a forum to bring your own people together.]
"It's not enough forums, let's build a website similar to Guoke."
Everyone agreed and turned to what name to choose.
【Anti-Capitalist!】
【Peanut shell? Melon seed shell?】
[Call the Hammer Internet Cafe, smash the shackles and give me freedom!]
[Do you want to add a sickle? You're going to have a hammer...]
There were many people and mixed opinions. After sending the message "as if it is wrong", the group was silent for a moment and they all agreed.
[How about it? People like us are like cactus.]
At this time, Xia Ming didn't know that because of his words "I'm sorry", the future "technical criminal forces" of the people took root and sprouted.
At the end of the press conference, another place was over. There were crowds in the lobby, and Xia Ming and Zhang Zhicheng could only hide in the corner to chat.
Zhang Zhicheng smiled and said, "Now Mengzhen Magic Mirror dares not make too many small moves. You kid makes the mobile phone and APP circle complain. "
The admiration in his words was sincere: "I really didn't expect that Google would have to admit that you could have such a big article in Android."
The technology-based person has never understood how Prometheus got the system management rights. As soon as Google came forward, it roughly had a direction. It must be an Android vulnerability, and it was not an ordinary vulnerability. It is reasonable for Zhang Zhicheng to guess this.
Xia Ming did not deny: "It's not my credit, but my senior brother."
Zhang Zhicheng's heart trembled. As expected, there was a big shot who was even better than Xia Ming. It was natural for Prometheus to create this situation.
He asked tentatively: "Google spent a lot of money to clean up this stall. At least it had to make up for your losses. Prometheus was at least hundreds of millions of dollars."
"No way, Google doesn't make money on Android, let alone we are taking advantage of loopholes, it's good to help us with the bottom line," Xia Ming sighed: "It's only a few million US dollars. We are doing this, which is also a subsidy institute. I never thought of making a lot of money."
For urgent matters, I created a counter-cracking technology that I still cannot crack. This time, in order to subsidize the research institute, it suddenly shocked the entire Android industry. If you do something next time, is this earth dangerous?
Zhang Zhicheng thought so, but he couldn't help asking: "Are there any plans for the future? For example... the anti-cracking technology will be considered commercial next year? Xiaoxia, we are not outsiders anymore. If you can use me, don't forget me if you have the opportunity to get rich. I am just a vulgar person. There is nothing technically except the Dream Magic Mirror. Experience in the mall is still useful to you."
Xia Ming thanked Zhang Zhicheng for recommending You Kuang's favor and said: "The anti-cracking is not ready to be commercialized. Without hardware support, that method is useless to take it out alone. By next year, the Dream Magic Mirror will gain a foothold. It is best to change the current anti-cracking technology. If someone gets the right idea, it will be easier than cracking the existing confidentiality methods."
Zhang Zhicheng nodded. He himself had some considerations in this regard. Now that Xia Ming said this, he had to prepare in advance.
"We are really working on something, which is also related to Mr. Zhang. If we have any questions, we will look for Mr. Zhang." Xia Ming revealed some inside information again. Zhang Zhicheng's dream magic mirror is indeed related to his next plan.
Zhang Zhicheng felt relieved and smiled and said, "Stop being irreversible, call me Lao Zhang."
The two shook hands and said goodbye. When they passed by the lobby, Xia Ming almost ran into two well-dressed people. The other party should not have attended the Cicada Movement press conference and did not know Xia Ming. Their nagging clearly entered Xia Ming's consciousness space.
"When will Panwang Daguan become a vegetable market? Anyone can come in."
"I was attending the mobile phone press conference just now. That circle is just a vegetable market, and everyone has it."
"Mobile phone? Haha, no matter how lively it is, it's just a show at the front desk."
"Yes, our chipmakers have become the heroes behind the scenes over the years, and even the media has not paid much attention to it."
"Cloud computing, big data, Internet of Things, and artificial intelligence rely on us, so it's great to make these clowns funny on the stage."
The sense of superiority and discrimination are indeed everywhere...
Xia Ming sighed, when he went out, he looked at the conference sign. In addition to the cicadas, there was also an Intel press conference.
"Naruko, we cicadas have nothing to do?"
Before returning to the office, Li Diluo couldn't help asking anxiously. Xiaohuan and Gu Mingli were not in a very high mood, and they didn't participate in the negotiations with Google. Now they know that Prometheus's stall was being bought by Google.
Xia Ming glanced at Li Diluo: "You think beautifully..."
The most things are that starting tomorrow, the developer version will increase the price to $69 per set, and will be sold as a value-added kit on the Android developer support platform. Cicada provides technical support and after-sales service. The free version also needs to be developed, and Prometheus's signature has been launched. You can develop some things, such as mobile phone housekeepers, and you can make some money.
What's more, Xia Ming's next plan also needs to be based on cicada movement.
He told me: "You can pick up Xiaohuan and Xiao Gu first, I'll pick up someone at the airport."
"Who?" Li Diluo asked ambiguously.
Hey, this guy got it? Xia Ming was a little strange.
Lidi Rodser said: "In the past, your computer desktop was all science fiction themes such as EVE. Now it's changed to lily, gladiolus, etc., which means blessings and peace. I have carefully studied Huayu."
This kid is actually smart sometimes...
"You guessed the beginning, but didn't guess the ending."
Too lazy to talk to him, Xia Ming drove away.
"Mr. Li, Mr. Xia has a girlfriend?"
On the way back to the company, Gu Mingli couldn't help asking.
Li Diluo shrugged: "How can a person like Naruto have no girlfriend? But I don't know who is the sacred person."
Xiaohuan asked: "What kind of person is Xia Ming? I don't think I can understand it."
"Awesome, don't you all know?" Li Diluo thought for a while and added: "When speaking personality, he doesn't like to talk, has a good temper, often talks to himself, is very arrogant in his bones, and sometimes he is two more than me to be honest."
Both girls giggled. It was really fun to hear one of them say that they were two.
When she was smiling, Xiaohuan's bright eyes were much dimmed a lot, but Gu Mingli turned her eyes, not knowing what she was calculating.
If Xia Ming knew Li Diluo’s evaluation, he would definitely nod and look at Li Diluo with a different look. Sometimes he is really good-looking, just like now, if someone doesn’t want him to pick him up, he insists on going there. The reason is that time is limited, and he doesn’t want the other party to continue to hesitate and procrastinate.
He was not going to pick up Tang Xiaotang, who had already gone to Europe. When she was in the United States, she successfully persuaded Yan University to find relationships and postpone the time for the cancellation of the institute until next Spring Festival. However, the search for a new source of artificial synapses has not been fully implemented, so she must go to several European laboratories to check out.
The person he picked up today was Matthew Lawrence, the developer of Mekrit technology, which is exactly the next plan he is starting to make.
Lawrence was very unhappy and kept complaining in the car, either complaining about the road being too congested or laughing at how comfortable this copycat Hummer is.
Originally, Xia Ming also invited Lawrence to attend the press conference. He deliberately arrived late and avoided the press conference. He tactfully told Xia Ming in this way that this was just a limited contact and should not have too much expectations for this matter before.
As one of the technical leaders of Microsoft's DX department, he had no idea about the Mekrit technology he had come up with ten years ago. He even was anxious about whoever mentioned it. Who didn't have the time to be frivolous when he was young? Looking back now, where did he get the courage at that time? He actually dared to challenge the entire display technology!?
Just for this idea, he spent less than ten years of time. If he hadn't been so independent at the beginning, why would he be in his fifties and still work for a general manager of a department? The brothers at the same time all had success in their careers, either the CEO of this company or the CTO of that company, which was just two lines of blood and tears...
Unexpectedly, Wu Sihao, an old subordinate in China, strongly invited him to come ten years ago, saying that it was about the cooperation of Mekrit technology, not if Wu Sihao threatened to say that he could not come. If the other party did it himself, he would have nothing to do with him. He didn't want to come at all.
Even after coming, Lawrence didn't want to be led by the other party, but unexpectedly, this young man named Xia Ming did not give him the opportunity to vain or shirke him, and directly intercepted him at the airport gate.
Wu Sihao around him kept saying good things, Lawrence thought that after this trip, his relationship with this old subordinate was completely amazing.
"Artificial Intelligence Research? What does it have to do with graphics and image technology?"
When I arrived at Yanda University, in front of the small building of the institute, looking at the English on the sign, Lawrence had already exhausted his patience on the road, because of this doubt, barely squeezed out a little.
Then another young man who greeted him introduced himself and said that he was from Caltech. His patience was squeezed out a little more, and the other party was not fooling him. Of course, it was impossible for him to take this matter seriously by relying on these alone. Graphics and image technology has developed to this point, so how could he go back to the first floor?
When a confidentiality agreement was placed in front of him, Lawrence bit his lip. This matter... became more and more evil!
"Mr. Lawrence, the basis of current graphics and image technology is to simulate visual effects by relying on plane dot matrix pixels, which does not conform to the future development direction. In the future, display technology not only needs to solve the problem of more detailed plane display, but also needs to solve the problem of more realistic three-dimensional display. Everything is based on existing technology. Is it reasonable?"
"I believe you have a deep understanding of this. This is also the fundamental concept of Mekrit technology, right? Think about it, if the future three-dimensional display is still simulated by a polygon model composed of point and surfaces, how much limitation will this be on our pursuit of real reproduction? Mekrit technology solves this problem in terms of mechanism, and it is a real reproduction! I believe that even if we cannot replace the existing display technology now, we will seize the future."
Xia Ming's talk seemed emotionally insufficient because of his stuttering English, and the effect was not good. After all, he practiced speaking temporarily in the consciousness space.
"I know you are very confused. Why do we find you when doing artificial intelligence research? The reason is very simple. Research on artificial intelligence involves the presentation of graphic images. The existing display technology cannot meet our needs. After all, the existing technology is just simulation, not reproducing reality."
"If you want to make further explanations, it involves some details in our research, so you are asked to sign this agreement. This is from the most cutting-edge technology's examination of existing technologies. If an expert like you is leading this direction, we will have a greater chance of success."
While Xia Ming was fooling him, he was very glad that the sign of the institute was still there, otherwise Lawrence would not have been able to bid him.
Lawrence's attitude finally loosened: "I need to see something first, something to convince me to continue to go deeper into this."
Xia Ming looked at Lin Cheng, and Lin Cheng nodded, indicating that it was done.
"no problem!"
Xia Ming signaled Lin Cheng to take over. Lin Cheng led Lawrence to the computer room on the first floor, while he looked at Wu Sihao and asked, "Brother Xia, have you considered it?"
Wu Sihao was Wudaozhai who had provided Mekrit technology clues to Xia Ming before, and said hesitantly: "Don't you wait for him to make a decision?"
Xia Ming said: "We are in a hurry. The sooner this matter is, the better if someone takes over it."
He looked at Wu Sihao and said with a pun: "If your ideal is still there, you will definitely agree." Mobile phone users please visit http://m.piaotian.net
