Technological Hegemony

If there was a crack in the ground right now, Zhang Qimin would have burrowed straight in and sealed the crack with cement, that would be better than being slapped in the face by An Ran mercilessly.

It's a pity that this is a five-star hotel, the ground is very flat and there are no seams, so Zhang Qimin can only bite the bullet, and is madly attacked by An Ran, a hardcore straight man.

"It's true that I haven't written code, because I don't need it. The company has Li Moran and more than 16,000 colleagues in the software center. Writing code is their job, but just because I don't write code doesn't mean I don't understand code. "An Ran finally concluded.

At this moment, Zhang Qimin's face turned from red to purple, and then from purple to white, it was extremely ugly.

He hated An Ran to death in his heart, but he was helpless, because An Ran really had something in his stomach, and he was not afraid to fight anyone.

There was no way to stay in this damn place, Zhang Qimin stood up in embarrassment, bid farewell to Luo Jia and Professor Ouyang, and disappeared at the end of the coffee shop.

"You guy." Luo Jia muttered, "Keep a thread in everything, so we can meet each other in the future, and there is no deep hatred, so why not save any face."

An Ran curled her lips, and said disapprovingly, "I want to save face for him, but I'm more afraid of being dragged into the Putian hospital by their self-driving car and losing my life."

Both Luo Jia and Professor Ouyang laughed. Sure enough, it is best not to do evil in this life. It is easy to do evil, but once you leave the impression of evil to everyone, it is difficult to clean up.

Although Baidu's search engine has been destroyed by Xingchen Technology, Anran still has not forgotten the bad things they did back then, and for a long time to come, Baidu will still have to pay the price for what they did back then.

Professor Ouyang couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I've seen how powerful you guys are. An Ran, who came from a hardware background, can make a software guy speechless. I'm so glad that you are a Chinese company, not a Chinese rival. .”

The time was almost up, and the three of them didn't pay much attention to Zhang Qimin's matter. They walked into the venue together and began to persuade the transportation department to grant road testing permission to automobile companies.

And Zhang Qimin, who left the Great Wall Hotel, returned to the headquarters of Baidu Group almost at the speed of escape.

With the fiasco of the search engine, Baidu Group has carried out four consecutive rounds of major layoffs. The total number of employees is only one-fifth of the heyday. It has been reduced from the three major Internet giants to a medium-sized IT company.

Boss Li was thinking about it in his office, Zhang Qimin came back so soon, which surprised him very much.

"After you left, I thought about it carefully. It's really not possible. It's okay to sell the Apollo project to Xingchen Technology. Although Apollo is the heart and hope of our group, if we can exchange the Apollo project for the group's urgent needs for development I’m still willing to bear the pain to part with the funds.”

"Of course, Star Technology's bid must be appropriate. We have been doing this for so long and have accumulated millions of kilometers of driving data. These data cannot be cheap for them."

"Huh? Why don't you talk?" Boss Li asked.

Zhang Qimin's head was buzzing, he wanted to talk, but what should he say?

Can't it be cheaper than Star Technology?

People didn't take a fancy to the Apollo system at all! ?

 …

The four-day new energy summit has finally come to an end.

During the four days, Xingchen Science and Technology soldiers divided into several groups, met with too many partners and related companies, and visited many higher-level authorities. Not only Luo Jia, but every brother who came to Beijing this time was very tired.

After all, the company is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more things, and as long as people live in this world, they can never avoid the word relationship.

Especially when dealing with the competent authorities, Luo Jia can send his subordinates, but that doesn't seem to be enough attention.

Take the application for a test license in the transportation department as an example. The bosses of the three major automobile groups and Luo Jia, the super luxury lineup went to the transportation department for a stop,

Immediately, the aura changed. The Ministry of Communications made a decision on the spot to allow them to test the autonomous driving system on a large scale across the country after the Spring Festival.

In any case, the things to be done were finally done, and the Chinese New Year would be a week away. It was the peak season of Spring Festival travel, so Luo Jia called China Eastern Airlines and booked a flight ticket from Beijing to Shanghai through the back door.

With his current status in the arena, the air ticket is just a trivial matter, and everyone is willing to sell the face of Xingchen Technology.

Taking advantage of the last time, Luo Jia visited the old general and gave him some Spring Festival gifts.

The sausages poured by my mother, the walnuts and dried sweet potatoes from my hometown are not worth two hundred yuan in total, but at the level of the old general, they are already detached from the world. to his appetite.

Picking up a dried sweet potato covered with hoarfrost, he smashed it in his mouth a few times.

The general talked about how he gnawed on this stuff a lot when he was fighting, but unfortunately he lost his teeth, so he can't gnaw anymore, but the taste is always memorable.

Luo Jia sincerely wished his parents a hundred years of life, the longer the better, after all, this is his biggest backer, with the full support of the general, the relationship between Luo Jia and the military is quite close.

As a gift in return, Luo Jia got a box of Moutai exclusively for the military. The packaging was actually the same, except that the words of the General Logistics Department were printed on the box.

Open it and take a look, okay, the 53-degree Feitian produced in 1997 is worth a lot of money now, half a sack of dried sweet potatoes can be exchanged for a box of this thing, Luo Jia has made a lot of money.

Save it for Comrade Luo Ning's treats. If you can drink this wine during the Chinese New Year, uncles, uncles, and cousins ​​at home will definitely be crazy about it.

Although money can buy Moutai in 1997, the box of ordinary Moutai does not have the military standard on it. It is a big face to be able to take out this thing.

Saying goodbye to the general, when the group returned from the capital, relatives from their hometown had already arrived in Shanghai as in previous years.

The twice-yearly family reunion is about to start again, and this is also the happiest time for Comrade Luo Ning and his mother.

The two of them accompanied Luo Jia in Shanghai, far away from their hometown and relatives. In fact, they were quite lonely.

Luo Jia was not in a hurry to go home and continued to work overtime in the company.

Now that the automobile war has progressed, it is almost time to clear the field. Ultrasonic motors and automatic driving will make up for the last shortcomings of China's three major automobile groups.

In fact, the short board will always exist.

For example, the audio produced by Huaxia is not high-grade. It cannot produce the low frequency of Harman Kardon, the transparency of the sound of Berlin, the simplicity of BOSE, and the sweetness of the human voice cannot catch up with Dynaudio.

But these are not the core competitiveness of an electric car. No matter how strong Xingchen Technology is, it is impossible to use scientific research strength to develop audio, which is putting the cart before the horse.

The so-called hard-core enterprise means that Star Technology handles all the most difficult subsystems on electric vehicles, and the remaining small optimizations and small designs are left to the partners to worry about.

Before I knew it, it was the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, and the Xingchen Technology headquarters, which had been busy for a whole year, was finally clean.

Luo Jia stood outside the company door, glanced at the huge enterprise he had built with his own hands, then opened the car door and sat in.

Music came from the radio, an old fashioned style these days.

With the development of the economy, Chinese culture has gradually shown signs of recovery, especially the box office frenzy caused by The Wandering Earth, which has made countless sci-fi fans excited.

In Luo Jia's view, the historical significance of the movie The Wandering Earth far exceeds the box office he finally reaped.

The author Liu Cixin once said that science fiction is the standard for a powerful country!

Science fiction rose with the rise of the British Empire and prospered with the prosperity of North America. Now it is very likely that it will be revived with the revival of China.

Only countries that can represent all mankind in terms of technology and military affairs can create science fiction that will be recognized by all consumer groups, and the three views that accompany the output of science fiction will also be convincing.

Only when the Chinese national team decides to build a space station, it is called science fiction. If the Qing Dynasty wants to build a space station, it can only belong to magic.

American emperors fighting aliens is called science fiction, and neon fighting alien monsters is Ultraman, which can only be classified as children's films.

I believe that the vast majority of viewers will not feel the power of the so-called Yamato when they watch the movie about saving the earth, Space Battleship Yamato, made by Neon, they will only feel very disobedient.

Because in the eyes of Chinese people, no matter how nonsensical the future is, it will not be the turn of a group of Japanese-speaking guys to save the earth.

However, why can we accept a group of English-speaking, or Chinese-speaking people to save the world?

Because that is the real future!

If Chinese people work hard enough, the future earth may speak Chinese, if not, it may speak English in the future, but no matter what, the future earth will never speak Japanese.

This is the confidence that only a big country can have!

Luo Jia was driving the car on the way home for the New Year.

The road home has an end, but the road of Star Technology is endless. The Spring Festival holiday is not the end of everything, but a new beginning.
