Cyber Heroes

For Xiang Shan, buying shares of the game company Action Master can use the prestige and channels accumulated by the game company to strengthen the influence of Superman Enterprises, promote a series of cognitive scientific research related to games, and even free AM. The player's computing resources.

Compared with the expensive construction and maintenance costs of supercomputers, the money to acquire this bit of stock is not that expensive.

And if necessary (for example, if there is no shortage of computing resources one day), the stock can be sold again.

As for losing money... ahem, at this level, Xiang Shan doesn't need to worry about this problem at all. If Xiang Shan praises a company in public, the company's stock price may jump up a little.

In the eyes of wealthy people, which company's stock is acquired by this upstart technology company means that the company has great potential in this era.

Xiang Shan spread his hands: "Coach Norwich, how about this game?"

The Norwich coach found it very incredible: "The most professional training software in the future will actually be a video game?"

"You can also think of it as a video game that comes with a professional training mod." Xiang Shan waved his hand, "This is not important. We have also made a lot of efforts to consider those groups who do not have advanced equipment. For example, it It is a game that is interoperable across all platforms and is compatible with various AR and VR devices. If you add two cheap sensor bracelets, you can also save the process of camera capturing and recognizing actions. In addition..."

Xiangshan waved his fingers in the void a few times, and then, the "sparring robot" in the eyes of the Norwich coach quickly became rough.

In professional terms, it means "the number of polygon faces has decreased."

Soon it was transformed into the kind of polygonal human body commonly seen in late-twentieth-century video games.

"Under this image quality, the computing power of the smart glasses can complete the task. It is really impossible to use the Bluetooth function to connect to a mobile phone. It can be completed with a few hundred dollars." Xiang Shan said: "If you even save this little money for the equipment, There is no room for them, so with all due respect, it is better for such people not to think about becoming boxers. After they learn the skills, they will be more likely to get involved in illegal competitions, right?"

The Norwich coach nodded.

What Xiang Shan said is also true. It is indeed easy for children from poor families to take risks and participate in informal competitions.

"By the way..." Xiang Yatou waved again. Then, the sparring robot in Norwich's eyes suddenly changed and turned into one that could almost look real...

"Tyson?" Norwich's eyes widened.

"Hmm." Xiang Shan said: "It's also authorized. But this time I paid. I think the business model of FIFA video games is good, so I came up with this idea. You can buy famous boxers for the training robot skin... I’m even considering bundling the AI ​​trained with that fighter’s data in the pro version.”

Norwich said: "What's the point... No..."

This makes sense.

A lot of boxers have a habit. They will hire a sparring partner whose physical data and technical style are similar to their opponent's for training before the game.

If you can buy an AI trained on opponent data, it will be relatively cheaper.

This is not unsportsmanlike. Because at this point, all boxers are equal.

"The first step is to find retired boxers like Tyson, sell their skins and then give them dividends. The better the performance of the boxers, the higher the share ratio - anyway, you can find professionals for the specific implementation." Xiang Shan said, "I want to hear Listen to the pros. What do you think? Coach Norwich."

Norwich thought for a moment and said: "This may change the training method of the entire fighting world."

Xiang Shan gave a high-five: "That's good."

Xiang Shan promoted this matter, on the one hand, for publicity, and on the other hand, he also hoped that small studios that could produce third-party prosthetics would emerge to lay out the product ecology in advance.

Those boxing gyms, clubs, and training camps that purchase sparring robots often don’t just buy one. If they buy it, they will use it. The operation of such machines will cause losses.

If there is wear and tear, there will be a need to replace parts.

Selling "AI trained on a specific boxer's data" will also create additional demand, that is, in order to better simulate enemies of different heights and arm lengths, different hands and feet need to be purchased.

These sparring robots are made using prosthetic technology. The limbs that can support the operation of this kind of robot can also be used as prosthetics (at most, they have no touch), and many things in Superman Enterprises are licensed for free and are open source.

There may be some third-party manufacturers that will start producing replacement parts.

And these things pave the way for the industrial production of prosthetics.

If a sufficiently intelligent third-party designer emerges, Superman Enterprises can also come forward to recruit them.

Of course, compared to the overall strategy of Superman Enterprises, this is just a casual move.

There are many similar layouts.

What Xiangshan wants to do is change the world.

The world is changing.

At this time, the Norwich coach had reorganized his thoughts. He said: "We can discuss those commercial issues later. Before that, I have another question." He pointed at Lu Xuanyu: "Lu Xuanyu is still wearing thick warm clothes. How to train."

Xiangshan stood up straight from his desk and walked towards the door: "This question can be answered when I take you to visit this 'inner area'. Come with me."

Open the door to the mountain.

Norwich's head coach's office is located on the second floor of the Sports Science Research Center. One wall is a glass curtain wall, and the entire public training area can be seen. The Norwich coach can see the training situation below at any time.

And outside the door of this office is the stairwell.

All the way down to the mountain.

"Further up are some of the more confidential scientific research areas, which are temporarily closed to the public." Xiang Shan said: "The training venues and functional areas on the first floor are open to all athletes, but I do not recommend Lu Xuanyu to use many of the equipment - Lao Lu Remember, especially the ice bath equipment over there."

Modern athletes train a lot. After completing a day's training, the muscle damage is serious, and an inflammatory reaction may even occur, leading to further aggravation of the damage.

Hypothermia therapy can relieve muscle inflammation.

At the same time, low temperature promotes vasoconstriction, which can accelerate the discharge of lactic acid to a certain extent.

"Basic humans are more resistant to damage than Homo sapiens, but they are not resistant to freezing. If you lose temperature quickly, you may need first aid. Those things are prepared for sparring partners. Without these conditions, it is really difficult to recruit high-level sparring partners. "Xiang Shan said, "The underground is your special rest area. Of course, after the game, it will also be open to reporters - so I put something suitable for display."
