Among all modern modes of transportation, Lu Zhengkang likes sky rails the most. But he is not a fan of sky rails and cannot tell the development history and classic models of sky rails. His preference is just to use them as his first choice for travel. A kind of
If a vehicle carries someone's childhood memories, it will always be special in their heart. If a person is dazzling in other people's childhood, then he is definitely special to that person.
Lu Zhengkang, Zhang Yingxuan, Su Xiangli and Qiu Qiongzhu, the same names, different people. The chairs with backrests sitting opposite each other were lined up on both sides. The male students and the female students looked at each other across from each other. The atmosphere was somehow dull.
Zou Xiagu put on VR glasses and played a mobile game, and intense game sound effects came from the headphone jack. Jiang Jin lowered his head and wrung his hands. In addition to being introverted and serious as before, he was more shy and anxious.
Su Xiangli stared straight at Lu Zhengkang, winking constantly, while Lu Zhengkang kept tapping his thigh with his fingers, his eyes wandering. Zhang Yingxuan pretended to watch the video, but his mind was not settled. The progress bar had ended, and he was still motionless.
Among these people, only Qiu Qiongzhu seemed to be the most relaxed. She started eating chewing gum as soon as she got on the rail. She stuffed five or six pieces in a row and chewed them together, making her mouth bulging. She sat in the middle, looking left and right, taking in all their expressions. It seemed that
I wanted to say something, but still didn't speak.
The group got off at Binhai Wetland Park Station, which was still two kilometers away from their destination. This section of the road can be reached in a short time by public electric vehicles.
Lu Zhengkang suggested that he would come to the park for a relaxing tour after finishing his business. Jiang Jin mustered up the courage and said, "You go ahead, I'll wait for you in the park."
"Wow, you Jiang Jin, you actually want to be a deserter!" Zou Xiagu kindly found a way for her.
"No, I won't go. I can't afford the cost of making the memory." Jiang Jin took a deep breath, "I checked and it's not a small amount of money. I won't pay for such a dispensable virtual service.
.I don’t want others to spend money on my behalf.”
Every child with ordinary family conditions has learned early to refuse, refuse worthless enjoyment, refuse large amounts of consumption, and refuse to make financial sacrifices for the sake of being gregarious. This is a good skill that can help people in difficulty survive.
Going down can also help confused people find a suitable way out.
Jiang Jin is a girl with character. Everyone is well aware of many realistic things. In order to take care of the dignity of her companions, they will never be brought to the table. But Jiang Jin is not afraid of claiming that she is poor. This should not be hers.
Mistake, all the ridicule and criticism that came from it should not hurt her.
Everyone was at a loss for a while. To persuade someone like Jiang Jin could not be done with a few white lies or sweet words.
Among this group of students, the only one who truly understands Jiang Jin is Lu Zhengkang, who has lived in two lifetimes.
Su Xiangli suddenly came to the rescue: "This is part of the work of the society. All expenses should be counted among the collective and regarded as public investment."
Zhang Yingxuan nodded quickly, "Yes, this money will be calculated into the club's account. When our project becomes profitable, we can make up for these expenses."
Zou Xiagu patted his belly and looked very cheerful, "That's what I'm saying. We are not doing this for fun, we are all doing this for our career. Why does it look like we died before we left the battlefield?"
Jiang Jin's expression changed, he lowered his head and no longer objected.
This group of students waited all morning for vocabulary reading disks and finally got the disks that stored their memories. Lu Zhengkang collected these disks and prepared to go back and use AI to create avatars. After lunch, everyone wandered around the Wetland Park.
With a student ID card, you can play for free.
Similar to the attractions at the beginning of the century, various consumer goods in the park have serious price premiums. Fortunately, the vending machines here also provide free supplies, including oatmeal cookies with added dietary fiber, zero-sugar buns, assorted fruit hard candies, and
Small whistle, small water gun, drum trumpet, thumb paint cannon, colorful flag windmill and 25ml bottle of bubble water.
Friends who are short of money or don’t want to pay the IQ tax in scenic spots will choose these free toys.
All of you here are mature and stable high school students. These gadgets are too childish for them, but a group of college students in the park had a great time playing them.
The Wetland Park occupies a vast area and is not comparable to those cramped small flower beds in ordinary cities. As we walked, we dispersed and agreed to meet at the south exit of the park at 3:30 pm.
Lu Zhengkang and Su Xiangli were always inseparable from each other, but this time Su Xiangli took the initiative to leave Lu Zhengkang behind. She noticed Qiu Qiongzhu going to the forest greenhouse exhibition hall alone, so she followed quietly.
"Wow, wow, wow, severing all ties, abandoning husband and son." Lu Zhengkang stayed where he was and said a few nonsense words, muttering to himself and squatting on the side of the road instead of wandering around, concentrating on waiting for news about Su Xiangli.
Others looked at it and said: "That man looks like a dog squatting on the roadside."
Female high school student Jiang Jin came to feed the stray dogs, "Would you like some water?"
Lu Zhengkang looked up and saw Jiang Jin handing over a can of sea salt soda. Her petite figure blocked the afternoon sun, and the outline of her cheeks was as white as silver. She was like every male student's fantasy, taking them out of their boring lives.
Just like the beautiful miracle that was saved here.
"Drink, definitely drink." Lu Zhengkang showed a rogue smile, "How can you not drink if you give it to me for free!"
Jiang Jin also squatted down on the roadside and adjusted her long skirt to prevent it from being exposed, but she could still see her plain and slender calves. Her skin was dry and pale, like birch wood cores displayed in the open air. The white cotton socks at her ankles were light and
They are thin, like all old socks, with loose and pleated edges, like the skirt of white fungus.
Lu Zhengkang took out the parasol from his backpack and handed it to Jiang Jin, "No." He put the soda water to his lips, but there was a warm smile in his eyes.
Jiang Jin hesitated and opened the umbrella. They hid under the shade of the umbrella, like two little people hiding under a mushroom cap to avoid the rain.
We have not yet entered the hot world, and the early summer in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is quite gentle, but it is still different from the cloudy sky in Jiangnan in Lu Zhengkang’s memory. The hardened roads in the city have a profound impact on the natural water cycle, reducing water vapor evaporation, and the hills
It was largely flattened and opened up, which also reduced local updrafts. Because cloud formation became more difficult, the sky at the end of the century was actually bluer and clearer.
"Are you always looking at the sky?" Jiang Jin said this as if he had nothing to say.
"Yes, I am a child of the sky, and I am looking at my hometown." Lu Zhengkang said the second line in a calm tone.
"What's in the sky? Apart from clouds, there are no cities." Jiang Jin actually followed his words.
"If the city in the sky was so easy to be discovered, the ancients would have written it down in books long ago." Lu Zhengkang shrugged, "Actually, I have never seen it, but I know that one day, I will return to the sky and board the
throne."
Jiang Jin couldn't hold it any longer, she pursed her lips and smiled, "Okay, don't forget your old classmates then."
"It's terrible."
"What?"
"Some people you know will disappear in your life for no apparent reason. Everyone will discuss it at first, but as time goes by, no one will mention the disappeared person anymore, as if that person never appeared."
"What's more terrible than death is oblivion. That's true."
"That transfer student, her name is Qiu Qiongzhu. When I, Su Xiangli, and Zhang Yingxuan were in kindergarten, we had a classmate, a good friend, with the same name as her and a very similar appearance. After finishing kindergarten, Qiu Qiongzhu
Left Jiangzhe City."
"That's the transfer student?"
"No. Although the three of us all think she is, she doesn't admit it herself. It might just be a coincidence." Lu Zhengkang touched the data disk in his pocket, "The truth will come out soon."
Jiang Jin seemed to have noticed. She has always been straightforward. She either doesn't say anything or won't hide it if she does. "Can you really convert memory into digital life? There is no such technology on the market for the time being. I only found a lot of top publications.
Papers all say that this technology is not yet mature."
"You think of me as a virtual God? I'm still a digital life. I'm not going to be a planetary propulsion machine, so I don't need that high-end technology. I'm just a strong intelligent AI at best." Lu Zheng was happy, but his words were just prevaricating.
Perfunctory.
Jiang Jin avoided his hateful smile, lowered his head, and sighed softly, "For a genius like you, life must be easy, right? This world is just like your playground."
"I don't think so. If this world is a playground, then it is also a paradise that the whole society strives to create for students. I don't think my life is very carefree. At school, it depends on the teacher's face, and at home, it depends on the parents' face.
, I have to take care of my classmates and Su Xiangli outside. Sometimes I really want to leave everything here, travel alone, go to a world where no one knows me, participate in an adventure, and then die as a hero in a foreign land."
"No wonder you always look so indifferent. Do you want to be Nietzsche's sun?"
"Everyone fantasizes about saving the world, but Nietzsche died of a mental breakdown." Lu Zhengkang became irritated, "The last glimmer of personal heroism has disappeared in the First World War of the last century. All philosophers who tried to save the world must die.
I have become crazy, or become a vassal or a clown. I don’t want to be anyone’s sun, as long as I can take care of the people around me, or just take care of my memories.”
"You lied."
Jiang Jin was shocked by Lu Zhengkang's fierce statement, but she quickly came to her senses.
"I'm not lying. I'm an ordinary student. Isn't it normal for me to have such naive wishes?"
"You are not an ordinary student, you are a child of the sky." Jiang Jin replied seriously.
Now Lu Zhengkang couldn't hold himself any longer, "You're really good." He raised his hands in surrender. The soda water flew out of the bottle and poured onto Jiang Jin's clothes.
"It's okay." Jiang Jin wiped it briefly, "Your girlfriend is here."
Lu Zhengkang poked his head out from under the parasol and waved to Su Xiangli.
Su Xiangli raised his eyebrows and ran over quickly.
Jiang Jin originally thought that Su Xiangli would be angry and get into trouble with Lu Zhengkang, so she was ready to apologize. But when Su Xiangli came over, he just got under the umbrella with a smile and said comfortably: "Wow, you guys can take shelter here.
Ah. Add me."
Lu Zhengkang adjusted the umbrella surface to be larger, closer to the large parasols used at fruit stalls in summer, and then took the handle of the umbrella to prevent the wind from blowing and making the delicate and frail Jiang Jin unable to hold it.
"Did you ask anything?" Lu Zhengkang asked agent Su Xiangli about the situation.
"She's not the one we know, and she doesn't have twin sisters. But she's pretty nice."
The person is not bad, which means his attitude is neither cold nor indifferent.
Lu Zhengkang nodded, "Even if you are not the same person as before, it doesn't prevent you from making friends."
Su Xiangli was noncommittal and buried her face in Lu Zhengkang's arms. Jiang Jin turned away and looked at the forest greenhouse exhibition hall with sparse traffic.
That night, Lu Zhengkang started a new construction project. The knowledge he learned from the system was very solid, and some of the content was beyond the times. Because of this, sometimes he could create things in simple conditions like a citizen scientist in a science fiction movie.
It has technological products that cannot be matched even by advanced research institutes.
He first used his own personality memory as a prototype to create a virtual AI. After completing the Turing test, he named it Mechanical Deer.
Lu Zhengkang had his first conversation with his virtual copy.
The camera was pointed at him and he sat upright.
"Hello." Lu Zhengkang approached the microphone and waved to the camera.
[Hello ( ̄▽ ̄)] A line of text appears on the display.
"Introduce yourself."
[My name is Mechanical Deer, and I am the avatar of Lu Zhengkang. I know a little bit of all the skills he is good at. If you ask about him, I can answer as appropriate.]
Lu Zhengkang Yile, "Who is your favorite person in the world?"
[This is a secret that cannot be told. Please don’t ask a male high school student about his thoughts, especially when he has a shy old man’s heart, and he won’t take hard or soft words.]
"Then what is Lu Zhengkang's favorite food?"
[He doesn’t have a favorite food, only the food he hates the most, which is eggs.]
Lu Zhengkang nodded, quite satisfied.
Mother Sun Hui knocked on the door outside, "Kangkang, go to bed early tonight. Who are you talking to?"
"Talk to yourself!"
The two younger sisters came to ask their mother what happened to their brother. Sun Hui thought for a moment and replied: "He's gone crazy."
Lu Zhengkang stayed up all night, and the second avatar he made was Su Xiangli, named Su Lizi. These names were discussed by everyone on the way home this afternoon, and were not randomly chosen by Lu Zhengkang.
"Hello, I am Lu Zhengkang."
[Ha, I recognize you, bad guy! q(≧▽≦q)]
Lu Zhengkang was embarrassed and said, "Introduce yourself."
[My name is Su Lizi, and I am the avatar of Su Xiangli. I am as cute as she is, but don’t love me, it won’t work.]
Lu Zhengkang coughed twice, put his mouth on the microphone furtively, and lowered his voice: "Who is Su Xiangli's favorite person?"
[It’s you.(○` 3′○)]
"Hehehe, I knew it."
[This is not a secret. Even if you ask a thousand times, she will still say this. So you are really boring.]
"Okay, okay, we'll talk to you later."
Lu Zhengkang was extremely satisfied.
Strike while the iron is hot, write Qiu Qiongzhu’s personality program before noon, and run it into the Fautude framework.
One thing that worries Lu Zhengkang is that Qiu Qiongzhu's memory data is less than others, and it is about 5 terabytes less. Either she has experienced amnesia, or her disk has been edited.
This is understandable. After all, everyone has secrets. You can delete the parts you don’t want to be exposed through the memory. Lu Zhengkang also explained it in advance. There is no need to provide too much information. Everyone comes up with the most representative ones.
Just some memories.
Strong intelligence will automatically fill in the deleted information, just like adding flesh and blood to the skeleton, making the memory more vivid and ensuring the personality of the virtual body.
"Hello, I am Lu Zhengkang."
[Humph, the most beautiful cyber girl in the universe, Qiu Hongye, has arrived! ( ̄︶ ̄)]
"Introduce yourself."
[My name is Qiu Hongye, and I am the clone of Qiu Qiongzhu’s personality. But let me tell you quietly, I am more than 10,000 times cooler than Qiu Qiongzhu!]
"Do you know me?"
[I know Lu Zhengkang, a high school classmate. He is a mysterious guy, and he has evil plans against Qiu Qiongzhu!]
"Don't talk nonsense. Do you still remember where Qiu Qiongzhu went to kindergarten?"
[The data has been deleted. But if you really want to know, you can try to recall it.]
"What happened in Qiu Qiongzhu's junior high school?"
[She is studying in Beijing-Hebei City and can’t make friends. Oh, how pitiful she is.]
"What happened in her third year of junior high school?"
[Data has been deleted. Why are you asking so many questions? In order to protect Qiu Qiongzhu’s privacy, I refuse to answer your questions!]
"The last question. Just the last one. Look at this photo, does it look familiar?" Lu Zhengkang held up a photo of the four little ones in kindergarten to show Qiu Hongye.
[Looks familiar. But they won’t tell you why.]
Lu Zhengkang looked at the text on the screen, remained silent for a long time, and slowly revealed a sly smile.
"The fox's tail is finally revealed."
School started on Monday, and during lunch time, the team that loved the madness spread tablecloths in the corner of the playground and started having a dinner together.
Lu Zhengkang took out a bag of data chips and announced that the work of making virtual AI was completed. The efficiency was amazing. It's a pity that the high school students here were ignorant and didn't understand the level of the virtual consciousness created by Lu Zhengkang.
A technology product of the times, he had no reaction other than a smile and refused to even give him a cheer.
"Tsk, the world is deteriorating, and people's hearts are not as old as they used to be!" Lu Zhengkang cried miserably. He distributed the storage chips to these white-eyed wolves.
"Handsome!" Zou Xiagu clapped violently and directly inserted the chip into the mobile phone port, "Oh, here we go, this feels almost like a mobile phone os (operating system)."
[Holy shit, don’t treat me like an impersonal thing like OS, okay? I’m Gu Xia, your virtual copy. If you continue to slander me, believe it or not, I’ll be the first to kill you when an omnic crisis breaks out in the future?
]
Zou Xiagu's body trembled, "Brother, I was wrong, there were so many people outside just now..." But this was said to Lu Zhengkang.
"Humph, the wisdom of mortals. Let's study it slowly. In the afternoon club activity class, everyone will discuss what to do with these AIs. We must make a lot of money!"
"Be bigger and stronger." Zou Xiagu said with a solemn face, "Brother, you are my guiding light. Let's try to open a company the day after tomorrow and list it on NASDAQ the day after tomorrow. Xuan, you will ring the bell then."
Zhang Yingxuan was also shocked by his own clone [An Xuan], and immediately patted Lu Zhengkang on the shoulder, "No problem, it's a bit late to go on sale the day after tomorrow. Let's go there on Saturday during the holiday."
These boys were looking forward to the future like idiots, while Jiang Jin and Qiu Qiongzhu were muttering to the side.
Jiang Jin suddenly asked Lu Zhengkang, "After you made this virtual AI, did you ask about our memories?"
Lu Zhengkang shrugged, "It was briefly tested, but don't worry, these AIs have a strong sense of privacy protection."
Qiu Qiongzhu fanned the flames at the right time, "Really or not? Although I don't mind you peeping, but you have to tell the truth. Have you ever inquired about girls' little secrets?"
"Wow, you actually doubt my integrity and trustworthiness! It's really heartbreaking. But don't worry, these AIs are really smart. They will never say anything they shouldn't. They would rather erase data than leak privacy.
"
The suspicious blush on Jiang Jin's face dissipated, but Qiu Qiongzhu narrowed her eyes.
Lu Zhengkang continued to talk to the boys, and at a certain moment he turned his head and blinked at Qiu Qiongzhu. The emotions in his eyes were extremely complicated. After Qiu Qiongzhu returned, he thought about it all night, but she still didn't understand what he was expressing.
