Genius of the Rules-Style System

weekend.

The third graders of Zhengyang No. 13 Middle School are still having make-up classes as usual, and Zhao Yi is also studying in the classroom normally. It seems like a very ordinary day, but it is actually a big day.

"Zhao's Screening Method" was officially released and sold.

Capital Youth Publishing House also held a small sales meeting for this purpose, but neither the first author Zhao Yi nor the second author Xu Chao came. The sales meeting only briefly introduced the book.

There were only a few media reporters who came to chat, and even the onlookers only gathered in a small circle. There was no grand scene at all.

Judging from the scene at the book sale event, it seems that it will be a "blockbuster" book and it will be impossible to sell. The actual situation is completely opposite, because it is a professional book on computers and the group it faces is professionals. There is no need for a 'book fan meeting', the book release party is just a formality.

However, the launch was still a success.

The people who came to the sale event were all technicians from large companies and university librarians. They immediately ordered a large number of books. Each person bought more than ten books. Some came specifically to buy books and ordered them on the spot. Dozens or hundreds of books.

In just one hour, several large boxes of books prepared for the sale were sold out.

This is just the beginning.

Zhao Yi's 'Effective and Irrelevant Carry Screening' is so famous in academic circles and high-end computer research circles. Capital Youth Publishing House only carried out simple publicity, and a large number of books were ordered in advance. The advanced orders added up Just over 30,000 copies.

"Zhao's Selection Method" has been very popular since it first started selling. Many people went to major bookstores to buy books. Even major bookstores only bought a few boxes of books, resulting in books that were completely in short supply. On the first day of sale, , it’s almost sold out.

Most people are not surprised.

The Rubik's Cube Calculator and the 'Valid and Irrelevant Carry Screening' are both too famous. "Zhao's Screening Method" will disclose the core algorithm of the Rubik's Cube Calculator, and will also provide an analysis of the key steps, which will definitely interest many people, regardless of expertise. People, college students are a huge group.

There are too many students in computer-related majors in China. As long as a small number of students decide to buy, it is a very huge number.

In addition, some universities are waiting and watching.

Some universities have previously considered making the 'valid and irrelevant carry screening method' a separate elective course, or putting other content into computer textbooks, mainly because of the 'valid and irrelevant carry screening method'. The method is simple enough and does not involve advanced mathematics or computer knowledge. It is a pure computer algorithm.

They got stuck at the beginning.

The 'valid and irrelevant carry screening method' is very complicated. Not many people can understand it all, and it is not easy to find qualified teachers.

The current "Zhao's Screening Method" is simply good news. The core algorithm of the Rubik's Cube Calculator is second to none. The most important thing is that it is an application of the 'valid and irrelevant carry screening method', which can help people understand the 'valid and irrelevant carry screening method'. Law'.

In short, the market for books is huge.

Zhao Yi also learned the news quickly. He expected the book sales to be popular because the book has a "technical monopoly" and there are no other similar books on the market.

Monopoly can bring benefits.

Of course.

No one would associate "Zhao's Screening Method" with monopoly. On the contrary, they felt that Zhao Yi was so broad-minded that he would disclose the core source code of the Rubik's Cube computer in the form of a book for sale.

Think about it.

If Zhao Yi sells the source code of the Rubik's Cube computer to a company, only the senior management of the company's technology department can see the source code, and it is impossible for others to have access to it.

Now it is completely public.

Everyone only needs to spend a few dozen yuan to purchase a copy of "Zhao's Screening Method" to get the core code of the Rubik's Cube calculator and see explanations of the key steps.

Most people will naturally give it a thumbs up.

Zhao Yi received a large box of books, all of which were hardcover editions sent by Youth Publishing House. The market price was ninety-eight yuan.

This is given to book authors by publishers.

After the author publishes the book, the hardcover version he receives can be used to give away. Zhao Yi looked at a large box of books and just took out two books and put them on the bookshelf, but found that the rest were of no use.

"To whom?"

This is a professional book that most people cannot understand.

Zhao Yi thought about it carefully and simply found a notebook to make a list and write down the specific people he could give it to--

Professor Liu, Professor He, Qian Zhijin, Zhang Zhen...

etc.

All professionals who know and are familiar with it can send a copy by mail, but the number of people is still relatively small, and it is useless to keep the book at home, because the publisher said that a better version will be released in the future.

Zhao Yi thought about it and simply logged into the enterprise account and sent a message to the 'Computer Technology Exchange Group', ""Zhao's Screening Method", hardcover edition, does anyone want it? Write the address and I will send it to you. Each person is limited to one copy. "

The group suddenly became lively--

Safe every day Meng Ruohao: "I want it!"

Neo-Confucian missionary Ma Xiaojun: “I want it too!”

The dream of creating a human being Gao Jixian: "Same as above!"

Mechanical Signal Liu Chengwu: "Give me a copy, thank you to the mathematician Zhao Da!"

To Sister Qian Hong: "Don't you feel disgusted that you are all grown men and shouting 'want, want, want'? Zhao Yi, give it to me quickly, sister, I want it, the address is as follows!"

Meng Ruohao: "Give it to Sister Li!"

Ma Xiaojun: "Give it to Sister Li!"

Gao Jixian: "Give it to Sister Li!"

Liu Chengwu: "Awesome..."

Zhao Yi took a breath while looking at the messages in the group. The free stuff was really attractive. Qian Hong really didn't even care about moral integrity. He quickly added, ""Zhao's Screening Method", hardcover edition, original price is 98 yuan. The courier fee is 20 yuan, and the middleman makes the difference of 100 yuan. Each person pays 218 yuan, so there is no need to transfer a bank card, and you can directly recharge Penguin coins to my account."

"..."

"Sure enough, a profiteer!"

"Profiteer!"

"Profiteer!"

A lot of complaints followed.

Of course Zhao Yi was just joking. He wrote down his name, address, and phone number, and then simply printed out a form. He would go to the courier point at the gate of the community tomorrow and ask the staff to help fill it out. It didn't take much time.

In this way, a dozen copies will be sent out, and the rest will be piled in boxes first.

…

Zhao Yi went to school as usual the next day. When he was sitting in the classroom, Wang Chengmin and Li Lisheng came over.

Wang Chengmin walked over with enthusiasm and asked, "Zhao Yi, do you know where I can buy the book on screening methods you published?"

"You want to buy?"

"No." Wang Chengmin shook his head and said, "The school wants to buy it. Our school also has a library. Buy a few books and put them in."

The students nearby were stunned.

"library?"

"Have it?"

"There seems to be a library in the far south. It's just a small room with some books stacked in it. It's basically not open to the public..."

"Ahem."

Wang Chengmin coughed in embarrassment and continued, "Zhao Yi, you are the best student in the history of our school. The school must collect the books you wrote, but Teacher Li and I went to Xinhua Bookstore together. Only then did I realize that they were all sold out, and the people inside said that the new batch would be a week away, and they had been ordered out early.”

He came over and said excitedly, "You don't know how popular your books are in Zhengyang. It is said that Zhengyang University has ordered two hundred copies, which are included in various libraries, and some high schools have also bought them. For example, Zheng Yang grabbed a few copies as soon as he hit the mark, and I don’t know what they used them for..."

Wang Chengmin was very dissatisfied at the end.

Behind him, Wang Jian whispered, "Because Zhengyang No. 1 Middle School has an open library."

Wang Chengmin glared at him fiercely.

Zhao Yi understood and said simply, "I received the hardcover version of the book. When I come tomorrow, I will bring a few copies with me."

"Okay, okay, okay."

Wang Chengmin immediately said happily, "The hardcover is good. How much does it cost? The school will buy it at the original price."

"Need not……"

As soon as Zhao Yicai opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Wang Chengmin, "It's as much as you want. The school can't take advantage of you. By the way, just sign the book you brought. It's also a book signed by the original author."

"good."

Zhao Yi agreed.

Li Lisheng followed Wang Chengmin out and asked with some confusion, "Why do you want to buy that kind of book? Can't students read it?"

"what do you know!"

Wang Chengmin explained disdainfully, "This book was published when Zhao Yi was in his third year of high school. Remember, it was 'when he was in his third year of high school.' When we do publicity in the future, we can say, 'Our school's quality education allows students to be able to Publish a book, will parents not take a high look at the school?"

"It makes sense! It makes sense!"

Li Lisheng immediately gave a thumbs up, "The principal sees far and comprehensively."

Wang Chengmin smiled so hard that his chin was raised.

In classrooms.

Several students were surrounding Zhao Yi and asked, "Are the books selling well? How much did they sell specifically?"

"Make a lot of money, right?"

"Why did you publish the book? Did you cooperate with the publishing house? Or did you print it yourself and sell it?"

Most people don't understand this.

Zhao Yi gave a simple explanation and dispelled everyone's curiosity, and finally felt a lot more relaxed.

Lin Xiaoqing turned around and lay on the table, looked at Zhao Yi and asked, "Do you make money selling books?"

"Make money."

"How much did you earn?"

When Zhao Yi was about to speak, he noticed that Lin Xiaoqing's expression was a little cute, and he immediately reached out and touched the little nose on the table.

Lin Xiaoqing sat upright with a red face and glared at him.

Zhao Yicai smiled and said, "You can't make much money selling books. You lose money by selling them."

"Yeah?"

"Um."

"Why don't I believe what you said!" Lin Xiaoqing said disdainfully, "Are you afraid of a treat?"

Zhao Yi suddenly came closer and whispered, "It doesn't matter if I invite you every day. Otherwise, from today on, you will live in my house and I will provide you with three meals a day, free of charge."

"cut!"

Lin Xiaoqing blushed and turned around, then suddenly turned around and said, "I don't need you to support me!"

[Flirting with girls, target: Lin Xiaoqing, learning coin +1. 】

"oh?"

Zhao Yi was a little confused.

He thought about the process just now, and suddenly found a pattern.

The system’s ‘flirtation coins’ prompt is probably related to the inner activities of the person being flirted with, right? It was probably because of his words that Lin Xiaoqing made up something in her mind that would bring 'girl flirting coins'.

This girl...

The brainstorming is a bit powerful!

…

The release of "Zhao's Screening Method" has not affected Zhao Yi's life. He is still busy at school and at home, and he doesn't even care much about the sales of the books.

There was one person who cared more than him.

Xu Chao.

Since the release of "Zhao's Screening Method", he often checks the emails sent by the Youth Publishing House. Because the books are selling very hotly, the person in charge of the publishing house will send an email every two days to explain the sales of some books. general situation.

Xu Chao was very excited to see it.

One is that the books are basically written by Xu Chao, and Zhao Yi only explained the content that he didn't understand.

The second is also related to interests.

Another reason why Zhao Yi doesn't care too much is that selling books takes a long time. Sales are booming in one or two days, and there will be no specific number of copies sold. The English version of the book has not been released, and the income it brings will not be too high.

certainly.

The 'too high' here is relative to Zhao Yi.

Incomes of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands are all within the plan, or even far lower than planned.

Zhao Yi hopes to see a surprise, but there is no surprise for the time being.

Xu Chao is different.

Now Xu Chao only earns a monthly salary of 10,000, and even the insurance has to be paid by himself. His life is far from embarrassment, but it is not that rich. After all, he is thirty years old, and it is time to consider falling in love, getting married, and living a happy life. Within a few years there will be pressure from family.

Xu Chao's desire to make money is much more urgent.

"Zhao's Screening Method" has just become a hit, but he gets a five-point 'commission'. Zhao Yi signed a fifteen-point contract. Each book sells for about fifty, and fifteen points is seven Block five.

He accounted for five points, which is thirty-seven cents and five cents.

This number doesn't sound like much, but multiply it by tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, and the number becomes quite impressive.

Xu Chao became very motivated at work when he thought about getting a large share of royalties. He would not leave the office until eleven o'clock every day.

Zhao Yi was worried about him, "Brother Chao, you must pay attention to your health. The work is almost over, right?"

"It will take another week, probably!"

Xu Chao was a little unsure, and immediately asked a key question, "Our hardware should be upgraded, especially the battery. The shopping system is fine, but the battery won't run for long at all..."

He said to himself, "But it doesn't matter. It's mainly about dynamic image recognition. The shopping system is..."

"It's crucial!"

Zhao Yi followed closely and said.

Of course he knows that it doesn't matter whether the robot can complete shopping, but it is only compared to technology sales. Smart shopping like humans has no market significance at all.

But...the mission requires it!

The shopping robot tested in the small supermarket downstairs could not complete the task. He had to really improve the shopping system to allow the robot to perform normal shopping.

Zhao Yi also thought about the battery problem.

In terms of the robot's battery, it is impossible to complete shopping normally. To achieve this, you must replace the battery with a larger capacity. You can buy batteries on the market with several times the capacity, but large capacities may not necessarily allow you to complete shopping. To be suitable for robots, the voltage, current and size must match.

At this time, you will know the usefulness of the laboratory.

For example, Yanhua University's Intelligence and Automation Laboratory has many top-notch accessories piled in the warehouse, and there are many types of batteries for machinery. Because they have relevant manufacturer partners, they can let manufacturers customize them accordingly.

You can solve software problems by yourself, but there is really nothing you can do about hardware problems. No matter how effective the designed code is, it is impossible to manually make a battery.

This is just the beginning.

As long as it involves high-end development of computers, hardware will definitely be designed.

For example, mobile phone manufacturers.

No matter what kind of technology is implemented on the mobile phone, it is impossible to achieve it with software alone. It must be matched with hardware. The role of software and algorithms is generally to maximize the performance of the hardware.

Zhao Yi stared at the robot carefully, looked up and down, and found that there were many things that should be replaced in the robot. Except for the two mechanical arms, which were pretty good, the rest, whether it was the screen, CPU, hard drive, etc., could be said to be substandard. Only by replacing hardware with higher performance can the robot's performance be greatly improved.

so……

"Looking for laboratory cooperation? Or attracting investors?"

Zhao Yi thought about it carefully and immediately ruled out investors. No matter how rich the investor was, it would be impossible for him to fund the establishment of a laboratory. Only a developed laboratory can have many cooperative institutions. When there is a need, he can Get resolved quickly.

He immediately thought of Qian Zhijin.

Penguin.

chat.

"Professor Qian, Professor Qian!" Zhao Yi called Qian Zhijin and sent a video of the robot briefly identifying the apple and then cutting the apple into four pieces with a hand-controlled fruit knife.

Half a minute later.

Qian Zhijin sent out a row of exclamation points and said in surprise, "This is what you are studying? Dynamic image recognition, and precise analysis...it must also include some other things, right? How did you do it?"

Zhao Yi sent over with a smile.

Qian Zhijin immediately replied, "You just want to show off your skills, right? What's the matter? Just tell me. What's our relationship?"

This is relationship building.

Zhao Yi thought for a moment and sent a long message, "Xu Chao and I have discussed it and plan to cooperate with your laboratory. You will provide everything needed for research and find a few people to help us improve the procedures."

Qian Zhijin replied, "What then?"

Zhao Yi continued typing, "The core technology may be transferred out, and some insignificant marginal results will be given to you. The project can be named 'Intelligent and Automation Laboratory', but the ownership belongs only to me."

Qian Zhijin replied, "What you are saying is that our lab has people working for you for free, and we have to do our best to provide support in terms of hardware and other aspects. What we gain are only marginal results and a useless reputation, right?"

"Yes."

Zhao Yi replied affirmatively.

Qian Zhijin sank for a while and continued typing a series of words, "I think this is an insult to Yanhua University and the Intelligence and Automation Laboratory. We are the top computer laboratory in the country and have the ability to catch up with the world." technology, and is also responsible for key national projects. Our researchers have won numerous awards and have trained a large number of outstanding doctoral and graduate students.”

Zhao Yi replied: "What then?"

Qian Zhijin quickly added, "On behalf of the Intelligence and Automation Laboratory, I can only agree to your request for cooperation."

“Happy to work with!”

“Happy to work with!”
