From small town academic to chief scientist

As everyone walked, Liu Qingfeng said:

"Half a month ago, we asked our people to work overtime to make a set of matching furniture, from doors to indoor furniture."

Zhou Yi and others suddenly realized it and said:

"No wonder it happened so quickly. It turned out that we had made preparations in advance and were just waiting for the final system. It is very efficient."

Liu Qingfeng said:

"I've been waiting for this day for a long time."

Liu Qingfeng said as he walked.

Not long after, they came to a house of 120 square meters.

The first thing everyone sees is the door of the house.

Liu Qingfeng said:

"This door can be opened in many ways. First, the face will be recognized. If the unlocking conditions are met, we only need to say open the door. The door will open automatically.

But we have to record the voice in advance, and it can be in Mandarin, dialects, and various accents. "

Zhou Yi and others nodded, then looked at Liu Qingfeng, who said in dialect:

"Xiao Ling, open the door."

After a while, under the eyes of everyone, the door opened automatically.

"Welcome home master."

A sister Zhiling's voice sounded.

Although Zhou Yi was confused as to why it was Sister Zhiling's voice, thinking about Liu Qingfeng's obsession with Sister Zhiling at the ICCM conference last year, he seemed to understand something.

Men know everything. Zhou Yi and others did not expose it directly.

Liu Qingfeng said:

"Now you can close it, or in Mandarin, open the door."

Liu Qingfeng tried again under the eyes of everyone, but the result was still the same.

Zhou Yi frowned and said:

"Can't you open the door without facial recognition? What if you have something in your hand and want to open the door in advance?"

Liu Qingfeng said:

"Yes, our system can accurately recognize the owner's voice. Even if you shout from a distance, it can also recognize the voice of the owner of the house and open the door."

Zhouyi said:

"Give it a try."

Not long after, Liu Qingfeng stood thirty meters away and shouted loudly:

"Xiao Ling, open the door."

This time, the device on the door did not scan Liu Qingfeng's face, and the door opened directly.

Sister Zhiling's voice sounded again,

"Welcome home master."

Not long after, Liu Qingfeng came back and said:

“In fact, we not only have facial recognition, but also multiple unlocking methods such as pupil membrane, fingerprint, password, and key. We have everything that traditional industries have.

The main reason for adding facial recognition and pupil recognition is to prevent someone from using the owner's voice to directly open the house, causing economic losses. "

Zhouyi said:

"That's okay. At least our system is fine. Can we use English?"

Liu Qingfeng said:

"Of course, but German, French and other languages ​​​​from other countries in the world have not yet had time to be entered into the program. We dare not ask for the program on the scientific research assistant."

Zhou Yi nodded and said:

"What about the various dialects in the country?"

"This is no problem. We have done it before, but it is still not as perfect as the scientific research assistant."

Liu Qingfeng said.

Zhou Yi nodded and said:

“It’s good that the first step is successful. Anyway, you have the most talent reserves in the country. If our system can accurately recognize speech, then it’s OK.

The sound can be heard thirty meters away, so there shouldn't be much of a problem inside the house. Mr. Liu, please take us into the house to experience it. "

After entering the house, the lights automatically turned on, and the voice of Sister Zhiling sounded in the house.

"Welcome home, Master. May I ask if you have any instructions?"

Liu Qingfeng said in the dialect of his hometown:

"Not yet, open the windows, curtains, and turn on the air conditioner."

It was mid-September, and I was still a little tired. With the large number of people, I had been walking for a while, and everyone was sweating slightly.

"May I ask which room the master turns on the air conditioner in, and what temperature is it set at?"

Liu Qingfeng said in English:

"The air conditioner in the lobby has a temperature of 23 degrees."

"Good master, I have opened the air conditioner, windows, and curtains for you."

Zhou Yi and others nodded. It seemed that the voice system was very successful and was no longer controlled by others.

After Liu Qingfeng finished speaking to the smart home, he continued:

“There is a voice recognizer in the house, which connects all the home appliances and is attached to our system, so wireless communication technology is required.

As for turning lights on and off and adjusting brightness, they are all available. In addition to voice control, the light at the entrance door is also controlled according to the brightness in the room, which is automatic. "

Zhouyi said:

"Well, try it."

Liu Qingfeng first said in dialect:

"Xiao Ling, turn on the lights in the living room at 50% brightness."

After a while, the whole room was shining with light.

Then Liu Qingfeng conducted another experiment in Mandarin and English and showed it to Zhou Yi.

Chen Danqi said:

“The original system of smart home appliances was already excellent. After our current voice system was installed, it became even more suitable and seemed to have taken on a new life.

With the addition of dialects from all over the world, once entered, it will be available to the whole world. "

Principal Bao and Academician Ma on the side were moved when they heard this. How much money is there?

If all the home appliances around the world are equipped with this speech recognition system, they will probably make a fortune.

"I'm afraid there are a lot of financial benefits in this, right?"

Principal Bao said with great emotion,

Science and technology are the primary productive forces. This is not wrong at all.

Liu Qingfeng said:

"This speech recognition machine is a chip developed by our country, so there is no need to buy foreign chips.

However, the control systems and drive systems of these home appliances are both domestic and foreign.

We only have the best voice system. "

Zhouyi said:

"This one is enough. Turn on the TV and let's see if we can do it and amplify the noise. We will verify the computer and other furniture later."

Liu Qingfeng heard this and said:

"Xiao Ling, please play the music and turn on the TV."

After a while, sister Zhiling's music was turned on.

Chen Danqi and Zheng Keyu could not hold back their chuckles, while Zhou Yi held back his laughter but did not laugh.

It can be seen that Liu Qingfeng is a true fan of sister Zhiling.

After a while, a TV series started to play on the TV. Zhou Yi didn't know the name of the TV series, but it looked quite bloody.

The sound of the music was so loud at this moment that it almost drowned out the original sound of the TV.

Liu Qingfeng said:

"Next, it's time to witness the miracle. Let's change the channel. I want to watch CV TV."

Not long after, the TV switched directly to the channel Liu Qingfeng was talking about.

The speech recognizer successfully captured Liu Qingfeng's voice amid the noisy music, which made Zhou Yi very satisfied and also surprised several people who accompanied the visitors.

Academician Ma said:

"This is probably the world's most advanced voice technology. It can accurately capture all this."

Liu Qingfeng said:

"It's not over yet, Xiaoling, Xiaoling. Turn up the brightness of the lights, turn on the range hood in the kitchen, turn on the projector, and play Zhiling's movie."

At this time, the noise became louder,

Liu Qingfeng said in dialect:

"Change the program to Yuzhou TV Station."

The voice recognizer still accurately recognized and changed the TV station.

"Mr. Liu, that's it."

After Zhou Yi had almost experienced it, he said to Liu Qingfeng.

Liu Qingfeng said in dialect again:

"Turn off the TV, music, range hood, and projector."

After a while, the four pieces of furniture were turned off almost at the same time, even if Liu Qingfeng said the TV first, at least it sounded that way to human ears.

Chen Danqi said:

"We can't get involved with these original systems, but our voice system will become the best in the world."

Principal Bao on the side saw the clue and said:

“Whether you use a mobile phone, a tablet, a smart watch or a computer, I don’t think it is as convenient as voice. As long as all smart devices are connected to the Internet,

Maybe those control things will be eliminated. "

Zhou Yi and others also know what the elimination here means. It is the elimination of control methods, not the elimination of these things.

No matter which scientific research institution in the world, including MIT, or any top formula, it is impossible to eliminate this.

Zhouyi said:

"It's really perfect. Why don't Principal Bao and Academician Ma also experience it?"

"Ah ha? Yes, we want to try it too. You can control it just by talking. It's very convenient."

Principal Bao said.

After a while, the speech recognition machine remembered Principal Bao's voice, and Principal Bao had a great time.

"Hey, can you also adjust the temperature of the refrigerator through voice?"

Principal Bao was as surprised as a child,

"The range hood in the kitchen can also switch between different modes through voice, and the washing machine can also be operated by voice without manually pressing the instruction buttons. It is still our local dialect.

You can speak English too, with a Cockney accent. "

Chen Danqi followed Zhou Yi and explained:

"Xiaomi in China cannot unlock the door by voice, but it can be unlocked using Apple. Xiaomi knows that it cannot link multiple devices, so it directly connects to Apple.

The door lock used to be from Xiaomi. To unlock it by voice, you had to use an Apple phone. But now, you can use the system we made without taking out your phone. "

Zhouyi said:

"Then let's just finish this project here. The follow-up work should be very quick. I'm thinking that the first model can be launched in China before the National Day?"

Liu Qingfeng said:

"certainly."

"Then try to become famous immediately."

Zhou Yi said.

Liu Qingfeng said:

"What about the contract issue?"

Zhouyi said:

"Do you have a draft? Show it to me."

Liu Qingfeng said:

"have."

The assistant on the side immediately took out a piece of information from the folder, and Zhou Yi read it.

Liu Qingfeng on the side said:

"I originally wanted to send you an electronic version, but I think the paper version is more solemn."

Zhou Yi hummed and looked at it.

There were many contracts, but Zhou Yi quickly grasped the key information,

Zhou Yi found it a bit incredible that his team actually took 80% of the net profit, and said:

"I take 80%?"

Liu Qingfeng said:

"The ideas and methods are all coming from you, Professor Zhou. We are just applying them. It can be done by another team, so we actually didn't put in much effort, and we learned a lot from this process, so we feel that we can use Not that many shares.”

Chen Danqi said:

"We all feel a lot if we take 10%."

Zhouyi said:

"Let's see, your team has quite a lot of people, and Mr. Liu is also responsible for various trivial matters and follow-up work, so 25% shouldn't be too much.

My four apprentices, Professor Chen and you three will get 35% together, and each of you will get 5%.

After all, Mr. Liu still has the entire company, and the people involved are far more than us. Coupled with the operations and early efforts, I think it is so appropriate. "

Liu Qingfeng said:

"Isn't this too much? Professor Zhou, you only got 40%."

Zhouyi said:

"This is our first cooperation. I'll give you Professor Chen a meeting gift. In addition, Mr. Liu, you have done a lot of work, so you deserve so much. As for my four students, they also deserve so much."

For a moment, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Zhou Yi, and they took half the money away.

This is not tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, nor is it millions.

But tens of billions, or even tens of billions.

If you send it out without blinking an eye, your fiancée will kill you if she finds out.

Yuzhou girls are known to be fierce and have great control over the family's finances and status.

Zhou Yi looked at them and looked at him, Zhou Yi explained:

"You are worth it. Money is only an external thing, just use it as long as it is enough. Contributing to the country and the people is my original intention in establishing the Yuzhou Institute of Advanced Studies, and it is also the goal that our scientific researchers strive for.

I also hope that my students will not only do artificial intelligence for money, but also have a sense of family and country and be able to contribute to the people and the country. "

At this moment, everyone was moved by Zhou Yi's spirit.

"Professor Zhou, you are the person I admire most. You truly treat money like dirt."

Liu Qingfeng said.

Chen Danqi also said:

"Professor Zhou's spirit has really infected me, haha. I will definitely emulate Professor Zhou's spirit."

As for Zhou Yi's students, although they are all students, Zhou Yi also planted a seed in their hearts.

Zhouyi said:

"By the way, the taxes that should be paid should be paid directly. I don't need to build some fancy things. I'm not short of money."

Zhou Yi remembered that a lot of taxes could be avoided by doing some fancy things, but Zhou Yi didn't think it was necessary.

Liu Qingfeng said:

"Okay, we will allocate a person to be responsible for this."

Zhouyi said:

"Taxes are still paid in Yuzhou. In addition, my undergraduate classmate Tian Yiguang seems to be pretty good. He is currently studying in Shuimu. I can let him do some things in this area."

Liu Qingfeng said:

"Okay, Professor Zhou. Don't worry."

Zhouyi said:

"My four students will stay here with you to complete the last trivial matters with you. I'm going to find Academician Pan."

After Zhou Yi, Principal Bao and Academician Ma left.

Liu Qingfeng said:

"There are really people in this world who don't love money. I remember Professor Zhou's eyes almost fell into money."

"Everyone will change. Professor Zhou was born in poverty. After becoming rich, he can still care about the world and his hometown. He is truly a role model for our generation."

Chen Danqi had a hint of wonder in his eyes.

Liu Qingfeng said:

"When Professor Zhou was poor, he really didn't rely on loans to study. He truly realized that if you are poor, you can benefit yourself, and if you are successful, you can help the world."

Chen Danqi said:

"I'm suddenly glad that the three of us chose to return to China and do scientific research with Professor Zhou. At least Professor Zhou is very generous to his own people. And I think Professor Zhou's spirit is very pure."

Liu Qingfeng said:

"Let's get busy too."

Several students of Zhouyi were also deeply touched.

"Teaching through words and deeds, Teacher Zhou at least truly achieves the unity of knowledge and action."

After paying taxes truthfully, Zhou Yi finally got not 40%, but only 22%.
