Darkness is Coming

Chapter 531: probably so small

In the zero-one base, a short-haired and lame British gentleman walked through the grand avenue made up of super mainframes with the help of a little boy. He saw the flashing lights of the indicator lights connected into a bright galaxy, and the metal-colored cube racks The bridge to the future was so magnificent for him that he kept holding the thick-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his high nose with trembling fingers, trying to see more clearly.

"Mr. Finch, if you want to see more clearly, I can get you a better pair of glasses, and if it's not time-hungry, we can also give you an eye surgery with no side effects and no sequelae. In addition , We have very advanced means of transportation, since you have inconvenient legs and feet, why not try our new product, I believe it will give you a good experience." Liu Zhongqian is dressed in a neat suit, although he is a little boy, he has a graceful demeanor.

After Liu Zhongqian's voice fell, a self-driving elliptical-cylindrical machine beside him turned on the indicator light, and then electronic sounds came from the built-in speaker. This is Liu Zhongqian's translation machine. The corresponding language is automatically matched among the thousands of languages ​​including dialects built in the program, and converted into another language used by both sides of the dialogue, although it cannot always give letters and messages in a short time. , elegant translation, but there is absolutely no problem in showing the meaning of both sides, and most slang words, common sayings, and idioms can be translated.

The Zero One Base rarely welcomes visitors. The last time Liu Zhongqian personally served as a guide was Yang Xiaoqian and Yu Qian, the two most important figures in the awakening. However, Harold Finch is the creator of "machine". In other words, "Even in the United States, which is full of talents, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is a rare existence." To treat such an important guest, Zero One Base must not lose his courtesy, not to mention that Zero One Base still needs the help of Harold Finch.

"No, no. I'm used to my glasses, and I'm used to the feeling of walking on my own." Harold Finch noticed his gaffe, immediately retracted his gaze, shook his head reservedly, and praised, "I am in the country. The data center has seen such a host matrix, but I didn't expect that such a spectacular sight can be seen in China."

"Oh, sorry, I don't mean to offend. The speed of China's rise in recent years is obvious to all, and we all know that it is only a matter of time before China equals the gap with the United States. It is precisely because of this that the government of the United States will be furious, in order to maintain its dominance. Try to block the development of China's information technology." Harold Finch said with a grin, "You know, sometimes I sound like an anarchist, but in fact, I am like every citizen of the United States. I love my country so much, that's why I have devoted many years of hard work to create a 'machine' to protect my country and my fellow citizens from being invaded and harmed by terrorism. But on the issue of blocking technological development, I have always disagreed with the proposition of the U.S. federal government."

"I know that you gave the 'machine' to the U.S. federal government for a symbolic one dollar. I must say that this was a great and selfless decision." Liu Zhongqian tried his best to squeeze a smile, but his The face was as rigid as a plaster.

"No, this is not worth boasting about. I know that there is a hybrid rice expert in China who selflessly shared his research results with the world and saved many countries and peoples devastated by famine. That is a truly great and selfless decision. ." Harold Finch said admiringly.

"To defend you from your standpoint, sharing hybrid rice technology with the world can save the world, but sharing 'machines' with the world may only bring disaster and destruction." Liu Zhongqian shrugged and gave A turning point, "But I agree with you, Academician Yuan is greater than you in personality."

  Harold Finch first laughed at himself, and then the sneer on his face began to shift the target.

"It's funny, for thousands of years, famine has been raging on the territory of China, and until a few decades ago, China was synonymous with food shortages. When the first World Food Conference was held in Rome in 1974, representatives of various countries, especially the United States The federal representatives all believed that China would never be able to feed a billion people in the future. They swore that it was clear and unequivocal. Miracle, combined with the invention and application of hybrid rice, has fed 1.6 billion people."

"On the other hand, those bureaucrats in the Pentagon have racked their brains and tried their best to block China's development of information technology, not only prohibiting the export of high-tech trade, but also trying every means to prevent chips, accessories and even Chinese talents from flowing into China. They are also I vowed to say that the information technology of the United States will be ahead of China by at least 20 years, and China will never be able to cross this gap to catch up. The result? In the end, you not only caught up, but surpassed us.” Harold Finch When talking about excitement, he reached out and clapped his hands and cheered.

"No, there is still some distance to be exact. We have only made breakthroughs in some special and fine fields. Of course, it is only a matter of time before we can fully catch up, and it should be a small problem." Liu Zhongqian was pinched between his index finger and thumb. A piece with a small gap in the middle, and squinted and added, "It's probably that small."

After successfully laughing at Harold Finch, Liu Zhongqian withdrew his hand and said solemnly: "Mr. Finch, you have already visited the Zero One Base and seen our 'system'. Now we should talk about business, I think You should know why we brought you here?"

"I think so, I know, and I thank you so much for doing this, maybe I still don't get my true freedom in the end, but I can be with my true love again, and I don't have to worry about endless hunts, no I'm worried about disaster." Harold Finch nodded, "I just don't understand, you already have such advanced technology, why do you need me? If you want to improve storage efficiency, I can only provide you with new If you want to expand the monitoring area, then you have to make up for the defects in the hardware, I can't do anything about it. So, why do you need me?"

  Liu Zhongqian did not speak, and the translation machine automatically replied: "Because I am facing several questions, I look forward to your answers."

  Harold Finch made no fuss, turning to the translation machine and making a gesture of invitation.

"Excuse me."

   "Do Humans Need God?"

"Um?"
