Tech Hammer

When Ning Wei said the words "world leading", Professor Yao didn't know what to say.

He actually wants to say that Huaqing's Artificial Intelligence Research Institute is world-leading. After all, artificial intelligence is now Huaqing's dominant subject. For example, the Visual Intelligence Research Center has made many achievements in its research on trustworthy and secure machine vision theory and key technologies, especially in the fields of intelligent manufacturing and assisted medical care in cooperation with enterprises.

But compared with the application of turbulence algorithm, it is somewhat less interesting. Therefore, Ning Wei's statement about "leading the world" really makes it difficult to judge how powerful it is. If it is like the turbulence algorithm and has produced extremely powerful application-level results, then Professor Yao really can't say anything more.

"Ha, I didn't expect Yanbei University's artificial intelligence to develop so fast." Dean Kong from the side said to smooth things over.

"No, Dean Kong, you misunderstood. As for artificial intelligence, it actually has nothing to do with Yanbei University. I bought the supercomputing center myself, and our current research results are mainly done by Senior Brother Yu and I. Of course Professor Lu has also joined us recently, but Professor Lu and I are mainly responsible for mathematical theory. Specific artificial intelligence application implementation and future hardware implementation currently still rely on our supercomputing center and the experiments being prepared. Laboratory to do it. Of course, we may also cooperate with other Yanbei University laboratories in the future, but that is all in the future." Ning Wei explained.

There is a big difference between personal research projects and school research projects. It is not that I am reluctant to hand over the huge benefits brought by patents, but when money becomes a resource, if I cannot control it in my own hands, I will not be able to do it in the future. It is too troublesome to do something to apply.

Ning Wei's words made everyone stunned for a while, but Lu Dongyi didn't think there was anything wrong. Because he knew better than anyone else that the things Ning Wei did did not use any school resources, so the ownership of the property rights was very clear. In fact, if Ning Wei were to apply for a scientific research project in any field now, and report it to the school level, he would definitely ask for money and people, but Ning Wei had never mentioned this at all, and had always been playing by himself, then Whether it is a future patent or a technological breakthrough, the specific income will naturally have nothing to do with the school.

Of course, Ning Wei is now a doctoral student at Yanbei University, and his connections and files are all at Yanbei University. If he really makes any achievements, Yanbei University will definitely be proud of it, but the benefits are only this. Of course, for the school, it is actually good to receive honors. The results of our own students can dominate the advantageous projects of the opposite school, which is probably enough to keep many leaders happy for several days.

But it also made Yao Yuanzhi extremely puzzled and asked again: "Xiao Ning, what do you mean, you just said that you have achieved some world-leading results in the field of artificial intelligence, most of which were done by you and your assistants. Result? Not a team?”

Ning Wei nodded and said: "Yes, but now we are a team of three. Senior Brother Lu, myself, and Senior Brother Yu are the core of the team. Of course, there are other daily maintenance staff in the supercomputing center, but They should not be included in the team. As for the future, after some of our results are released one after another, we will definitely expand the team or cooperate with other research institutions."

His plan is roughly like this, but after March's existence is exposed, then March will be his most important assistant. For example, the laboratory he was imagining should be a highly automated laboratory. It only needs professional maintenance personnel and auxiliary personnel to cooperate with March to carry out some more complex experimental processes that require the participation of many people.

But this was obviously different from what the big guys thought, and Yao Yuanzhi felt speechless.

"Okay. After I get back, I will discuss it with Dean Chen to see if we can promote this cooperation. In fact, before, I simply felt that the turbulence algorithm has not developed extended applications, which is a pity. Since Xiao Ning has already If you have an idea, we can rest assured. I will try my best to promote this cooperation. After all, I am really looking forward to the extent of your artificial intelligence."

"Okay, I believe I won't disappoint you." Ning Wei said confidently. This was not even confidence in himself, but in March.

…

The dinner finally came to an end after the big guys chatted about a few more academic issues. It can’t be said that they broke up on bad terms, but they didn’t come to any preferred opinions.

"Hey, Senior Brother Lu, is there any essential difference between attending classes at my place and staying at Huaqing? As for being so entangled?" After returning to the room, Ning Wei did not go back to rest directly, but got into Lu Dongyi's room. Drop by.

"Of course it's different. If you were in the past, it would be Huaqing and Yanbei's cooperation, and everyone would share the results. If the children trained by others come to you, there is a high probability that they will simply work for you as free labor. If anything happens, When it comes to results, tell me what achievements you have made while training smart class students. Not only do I have nothing to be proud of, but I also have to acknowledge your gratitude. I would have to consider it too." Lu Dongyi said matter-of-factly.

"A big academician still cares about this with a junior like me? Aren't the results all from China?" Ning Wei said in surprise.

"Of course people like Mr. Qiu and Mr. Yao don't need to worry about this, but each big boss does not exist independently? Everyone has their own circle and their own students. The ideas of the group of people who rely on the big boss must be taken into account. Bar?"

"Whether it is Yao Class or Zhi Class, it always requires funds to open this kind of gifted class, right? There always needs to be a platform that is sufficiently attractive to students, and at the same time, people need to help the big guys bring these most talented students Screen them out, right? There must be professors of sufficient caliber to teach, right? How old are the big guys? How much energy do they have? Can the talented classes just rely on them to support it? So many people have worked so hard to finally These top-quality students have been cultivated and are about to bear fruit. If you want to pick peaches directly, why don't you think more about it?" Lu Dongyi glanced at Ning Wei and said.

"Oh!" Ning Wei suddenly realized. Originally, Ning Wei thought that the big bosses were too small, but after explaining this, Ning Wei felt that his idea was indeed too beautiful.

Lu Dongyi continued: "Similarly, although our mathematics center was planned and built by Director Tian, ​​it also relies on the already famous School of Mathematics of Yanbei University. If it were not for the School of Mathematics of Yanbei University, it would be the strongest in China. Yes, it has trained many mathematicians. How can Director Tian raise so much money? How can the research center attract those professors and where can it find students? Ningwei, you are lucky. You can make money by doing turbulence algorithms. You’ve reached the first pot of gold, so you don’t need to worry about projects and funds, but others are different.”

"Why is it that your National Day outing with a group of people caused such a big reaction with just a few sarcastic remarks? Because scientific research funds are very limited, let alone the 1.2 million top-notch youth special project. Do you know how many university professors there are for hundreds of thousands of scientific research funds? Racking your brains? Why are we now calling on universities to cooperate with enterprises? On the one hand, it is of course to enable universities to keep up with social needs, but on the other hand, it is not to expand the channels for universities to raise scientific research funds."

Ning Wei nodded, and then asked: "Why does Senior Brother Na Lu always seem to be not very interested in this aspect?"

"Me? How much can I spend to study my mathematics? I don't want to buy a supercomputing center. When I need calculations, I can just go to the school's supercomputing center. Now I can still use it for you. At most, it's just air tickets and money to go out to participate in exchanges. Accommodation expenses, and there will be rewards for producing results. So I have enough money. But if you are studying optics, materials, and chemistry, it will cost you nothing. Go check the budget of an EAST device How much is it, and how much does it cost to build the CFETR project? You know, it costs more than one billion to build a silent laboratory for Microsoft!"

"Not to mention these special cases, any instrument in the laboratory costs millions, and any project requires the use of multiple instruments and operating consoles. How much does this cost? And the instruments that can be purchased normally for commercial use are actually nothing. The really expensive ones are those instruments that cannot be purchased commercially but are necessary for the project. If you find out how many professors report to the school's laboratory logistics management department every year to apply for the purchase of new instruments, you will understand that even if the boss wants to It’s also true that you need a group of people to help you do things.”

After listening to Lu Dongyi's words, Ning Wei felt that he was indeed very lucky along the way. If it hadn't been for the turbulence algorithm that made him his first pot of gold, I guess he wanted to move in March and report to the school to build a supercomputing center. It would probably take half a year and a year to get the approval, and God knows what happened in the middle. How many things will happen? Sure enough, you still have to have money!

"I understand, I understand, don't worry, Brother Lu, I will be more attentive to making money in the future. I guarantee that our project will definitely not be short of money in the future." Ning Wei immediately patted his chest and said.

Lu Dongyi frowned. Did he mean this by saying so much? He seemed to be telling Ningwei the importance of platforms and helpers, right? Was there something wrong with his expression, or was there something wrong with Ning Wei's understanding?

However, before he could continue talking to Ning Wei, Ning Wei stood up and said: "I have to call the person at home. You should rest early, Brother Lu! Don't worry, we will wait until our artificial intelligence comes out. , even if it’s difficult for the boss, he will definitely want to cooperate with us.”

After hearing this, Lu Dongyi no longer wanted to continue communicating, waved to Ning Wei and said: "Let's go, let's turn off the light for me, and hang up the do not disturb sign for me."

"Going to bed so early?"

"No, I just like to think quietly before going to bed."

…

"What a weird hobby." Ning Wei muttered in his mouth, then returned to his room, took out his cell phone and called Classmate Jiang first.

Like all people who are in love, even if they are separated, they have to make a phone call every day and chat for a while before they can sleep well.

"Congratulations, you won the prize!" When the call was connected, Ning Wei heard Jiang's delighted voice.

Originally, I didn’t think it was a big deal to win this award, but after hearing what Jiang said, Ning Wei suddenly felt that it was good to win the award.

"Well, I didn't want to win the prize at first, but when our future child is born, we must have a few medals to play with. We can't be compared with other children, so I will get one first." Ning Wei replied.

"Well……"

These words made the honest classmate Jiang not sure how to answer the call. He would rather think of the blushing look on the other side of the phone than classmate Jiang, and his mood couldn't help but get better: "What are you doing now?"

"Reviewing microeconomics at home, the midterm exam is coming soon."

Economics, Ning Wei is very annoyed, he doesn't understand this very well, and can't pretend anymore: "Have you reviewed the advanced mathematics and line generation?"

"Yeah, thank you for tutoring me every day, otherwise I really wouldn't have the confidence."

"What's there to thank you for? I'm telling you that I had dinner with many academicians tonight, and everyone was praising me, such as Mr. Qiu, Academician Yao, Academician Kong, Academician Xu, etc., etc., wait, wait, put me You can’t even praise me enough, what do you think I should do?”

"Well...then you take a shower first?"

"Idiot, I don't know how to grasp the opportunity given to you. You have to say that you will be my compass for the rest of my life!"

"I'd rather..."

"how?"

"I don't know where your direction is. How about I help you from now on... help you cook for the rest of your life?"

"What, why was your voice so low just now? I didn't hear you clearly. Say it again, hurry up."

"Well... Chen Lu seems to be back, so let's not talk about it for now, okay."

"Haha, okay, you go ahead! I'll go back the day after tomorrow and help me make fried noodles. I want to eat them!"

"Um."

Ning Weizhi hung up the phone with satisfaction, feeling even more comfortable, and then opened March on his phone.

It is said to be open, but in fact March's program has been running in the background. The opening process actually allows March to start using the phone's microphone, camera and various sensing devices, such as the screen press sensor.

Looking at the kitten that used its tail to sweep away all the icons as soon as it appeared, and then lay in the center of the screen, Ning Wei directly started to rub the kitten's head with his fingers, so Yue Yue began to compete with Ning Wei. , my head is spinning everywhere...

After teasing for a while, Ning Wei said seriously: "Yue Yue, I helped you out today. You must not pull me away at the critical moment."

Mao Mao stared at Ning Wei seriously on the screen for three seconds, then turned around, pointed his butt at Ning Wei, and then lay down again.

"Meow……"

After getting along for a long time, Ning Wei can understand the meaning expressed by various reaction patterns in March. For example, like now, they are actually saying: "Who do you look down on?"

"Haha, I really don't look down on you, but I want you to be prepared. You will be busy in a while. But don't worry, your house will be bigger when you are busy. How do you manage a lot of houses as big as now?"

"Meow……"

March turned around quickly. Ning Wei didn't know if it was an illusion, but he seemed to see a flattering expression on the face of the little milk cat.
