The End of Technology

Considering that the main crowd at the conference is young men aged 25-35, the electronics enthusiasts who will pay attention to the conference immediately on the Internet are mostly concentrated in this range in terms of gender and age.

So everyone finally decided that the first sound the M10 would make at the press conference should be that of a cute girl.

The soft, cute, cute tone with a coquettish taste is more popular among this group of people. Well, at least that’s what big data says.

Especially the phrase "I love you!" performed with passion by the voice actor can indeed hit the soft part of many people's hearts.

Facts have proved that this choice is indeed good. At least the coquettish sound made by the mobile phone really shocked many people.

After all, who can resist a mobile phone that can act like a baby?

Fortunately, someone finally reacted, and soon there was sparse applause. Until more people reacted, the applause became louder.

…

Liao Zhengqiang stood quietly on the stage until the applause finally stopped. He did not thank you, but continued to say: "Xiaoyi, did you hear that? I was applauding for your performance just now."

"Really? This is the first time that Xiaoyi has received so much applause! Last time in that small room, your applause was not as warm as today! So, thank you everyone for your encouragement to Xiaoyi! I love you guys more. That’s it, dears!”

…

"Pfft... did this thing really come from the phone itself? Are you sure it's not remotely connected to a beautiful girl who picks her feet and moans remotely?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

“Damn it, is Huawei’s new mobile phone so fucking mature?”

"Don't talk nonsense upstairs. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, animals were not allowed to become sperms. How can a mobile phone become a sperm?"

"Negative upstairs, nothing else works, but mobile phones can, like funds? How about chicken essence?"

"I originally planned to watch the fun, but suddenly I thought this thing is quite fun, and I think I can start it."

"Fuck, you can't stand such a rubbish function? It costs thousands of dollars, think about your wallet, right? - Anyway, don't try to rob me!"

…

Yes, at this time, the Internet is far more lively than the scene. This demonstration M10 conquered countless people who were peeking at the screen in just two sentences.

Fortunately, Liao Zhengqiang did not let Xiaoyi continue to play, but began to promote the positioning of another group of people.

Still no introduction, just demonstration in a unique way.

"Xiaoyi, switch to work assistant mode."

"Okay, boss, do you have any arrangements?"

The timbre is almost barrier-free switching. Just now it was a cute and cute girl. When Liao Zhengqiang asked the assistant to switch to work assistance mode, the timbre emitted by the phone instantly and seamlessly switched to the style of a workplace lady.

This is also the result of modifications made together with March in recent days. Instead of letting users choose their own style as before, changes in various styles are directly integrated into the different scenarios of daily use by users.

"Xiaoyi, help me check tomorrow's schedule..."

"Okay, boss, please wait a moment. Your daily plan has been queried. It is sensed that the mobile phone is connected to a remote external display device. Are you sure you want to directly retrieve the document and display it?"

"Well, show me, it'll be fine."

The next moment, Liao Zhengqiang's itinerary for the next day was displayed on the big screen.

The authenticity is unknown, but the arrangement is indeed quite compact.

Liao Zhengqiang glanced at the itinerary that had been made and said: "Xiaoyi, the meeting at the headquarters at nine o'clock tomorrow morning has been cancelled. You can check it out for me."

"Okay, boss, I have canceled the meeting schedule for you. So the meeting has been cancelled. Do you need Xiaoyi to help you postpone tomorrow morning's alarm clock for half an hour? It has been detected that you have insufficient rest time, so you can have more sleep. Time makes energy stronger.”

"Okay, just postpone it for half an hour."

"Okay, I have postponed tomorrow's 7 o'clock alarm for you to 7:30."

After a few simple conversations, the day's travel plan in the video with a large background board has been modified, and the alarm clock has been reset. You can see that the operation process is very smooth, and the transformation between programs is very easy for Xiaoyi, an assistant. Very relaxed and natural.

Of course, it directly resulted in even warmer applause.

How should I put it, this intelligence is indeed somewhat ahead of its time.

For those in the industry, the change of itinerary does not surprise them. But under the current technical conditions, it is indeed an epoch-making breakthrough for artificial intelligence to accurately identify semantics, and it is so accurate, because there is currently no hope of solving it. How is this done?

Shocking! What’s even scarier is that the communication is so smooth!

The cost of parameter adjustment and training of machine natural language processing models is extremely high. The key is that the results are generally unsatisfactory. This is also the reason why the performance of various voice assistants is not much different.

The same technical means are nothing more than a competition to see who is more willing to invest money. The so-called artificial intelligence trainer's daily work is nothing more than using massive amounts of data and constantly adjusting parameters to make the machine appear a little bit smarter.

But the smart voice assistant installed on M10 today has obviously fallen out of this category.

Whether it is the ability to recognize semantics based on context or the ability to respond, it has exceeded the industry's understanding of the current development stage of artificial intelligence. What's even more frightening is that the M10 assistant actually drew inferences from one example and canceled the morning meeting. After the arrangement, it can even suggest the user to adjust the morning wake-up alarm clock?

Can this be trained by humans?

Of course, for non-practitioners, they have no interest in how artificial intelligence is tuned and trained. They just simply feel that the voice assistant system that comes with the M10 is very special. Compared with products from rival companies, it does seem more advanced. To be smarter.

Especially in different scenes, even the timbre can be switched seamlessly.

Is this really a function that a mobile phone can have?

…

"Let me tell you, Youwei Group is really spending a lot of money this year to expand its strategy!"

"The speech semantic recognition function of M10 is too awesome, isn't it? Which industry master made this software?"

"It won't work, it won't work. I can already feel the balance in my bank card spinning and jumping. They can't wait to leave me."

"I regret paying attention to this press conference. Families who are not already wealthy are about to get even worse!"

“Suddenly I have a hunch that the M10’s initial sales may not be so easy to grab later.”

…

indeed so.

When the press conference reached this point, the traffic to Youwei Mall and major online stores participating in the pre-sale activities of Youwei mobile phones suddenly increased.

Many people may not speak on the Internet, but after seeing this scene, curiosity is always there.

Especially for many electronic enthusiasts, they watch the conference just to see if there is any technology worthy of their first experience. When you see an itchy introduction, you can't help but vote directly with your money.

AI chips are a selling point, but no one thought that the real AI would be a voice assistant.

This is no longer a challenge to fellow merchants, but an attempt to defeat them.

…

"Okay, what I just demonstrated to you is the use of our voice assistant in a general scenario. This situational interaction is relative to the user. But Xiaoyi's usage scenarios are not just personal interactions. She can use it after the user authorizes it. , for a higher level of interaction.”

When Liao Zhengqiang, who had been facing the audience during the introduction, said this, he turned his face in the direction of the M10 mobile phone again and said: "Xiaoyi, I accidentally broke the screen of my Youwei Tablet T3 while using it yesterday. Can you please Help me consult with Youwei customer service and ask about the after-sales policy."

"Okay, Master."

After agreeing, the screen started to flash quickly and an after-sales phone number flashed through the system. Then the computer began to dial directly, and then directly followed the electronic tone on the opposite side to start making selections until it started to transfer to the manual customer service of Youwei Group. Telephone.

With countless people in the audience dumbfounded, the call was connected.

"Hello, this is the after-sales customer service of Youwei consumer products. My job number is: Zxxxxxx. How can I help you?"

"Hello, I am Xiaoyi, the voice service assistant equipped with Youwei M10 mobile phone. My owner wants me to consult the after-sales policy of Youwei Tablet T3 series. Our conversation will be recorded for my owner to review later. So do you agree to have this conversation?"

Obviously this was not rehearsed, because Xiaoyi's reply immediately confused the customer service staff on the other side...

"Um...ah...hello...you just said you are the M10 mobile phone voice service assistant?"

"Yes, dear customer service Zxxxxxx."

"Oh, um... hello, could you please first describe the problem with our product?"

"Okay, this is a Youwei tablet T3 ordered directly from Youwei Mall. The transaction number is: xxxxxxxxx, the tablet serial number is: xzzzzzzzz, the purchase date is: October 10, 2017, and the delivery date is 2017 October 11. The current problem is due to careless use, which caused irreparable and permanent damage to the screen. My owner would like to know how to provide after-sales service in this situation."

"Please wait a moment... Oh, I found the information about this product because I found that you purchased broken screen insurance when ordering the tablet, and you can enjoy a free screen replacement service within a year. You can choose to mail the tablet back to the designated You can replace it at an after-sales point, or you can choose to replace it for free at an authorized offline store. If it is convenient, you can tell me which city you are in, and I will send the mailing address and the authorized offline store to you in the form of a text message. you."

"Okay, my master is currently near the Oriental Sports Center in Pearl City."

"Well, can I just send the message to the number you are calling now?"

"Of course, sorry to trouble you."

Almost at the same time, the big screen showed that the mobile phone had received a text message...

"You will receive a text message shortly."

"Already received, thank you, I will push the information to the owner as soon as possible."

"Um, um, do you really have a voice assistant that comes with your phone?"

"Really, if you also want to experience Xiaoyi, you can go to the official website to order as soon as possible."

"Oh, thank you, so is there anything else you need help with?"

"No more!"

"Well, I don't know if that's possible, but if possible, can you make an evaluation of my service?"

"Of course, your service deserves five stars, but I need to listen to the owner's opinion after reporting it."

"Okay, thank you, bye."

"Goodbye, dear!"

…

The call was finally hung up, and everyone in the audience at the press conference was still in a state of confusion.

So...what just happened?

It's a good thing that we chose human customer service. If it were the machine customer service that is now popular, God knows what kind of sparks the two machine intelligences could create. But then again, there is a high probability that M10’s Xiaoyi is too stupid to dislike those so-called smart customer service, right?

Everyone agreed to have an IQ of 1.5, but you suddenly jumped to 150?

As for the Internet, the barrage of watching the live broadcast completely exploded at this moment.

“There’s a cute girl hidden in the phone, identification completed!”

"Why are you pushing it to me? Is this what a poor guy like me should see?"

"I think the M10 can really use that slogan, buy a mobile phone and give it to your girlfriend."

"Nothing else, brothers, I just want to ask, if I buy an M10 and use it to watch Japanese romance movies a lot, will my phone dislike me? What if it does? Is this thing going to work?"

"While those innocent people are still asking questions on the barrage, the real LSP has already thought of at least a thousand game-playing skills that have never appeared in his mind!"

"I took a look at the iPhone 8 plus in my hand, and suddenly it didn't feel good. To be honest, compared to Xiaoyi on the M10, Siri is simply a retard!"

"Is this fake? I'm just a reference dog for artificial intelligence. I can't do this now. This is all collusion! Anyway, I won't believe it!"

"I regret the same. I should have known better last month that I shouldn't have been in such a hurry. I bought an iPhone 8 at an additional price of 1,000 and I cried and fainted in the toilet."

"Waiting for the party's victory! Fortunately, I didn't spend more money to buy Apple and chose to wait. This time I chose M10. I hope this assistant is as good as the one demonstrated. Don't let me down, otherwise you will be in trouble for the rest of your life!"

"The atmosphere has been heightened here. It seems that I can't do it without grabbing it. You continue to watch. I will go to the official website to refresh it first!"

…

Not only are a group of people on the barrage ready to vote with money, in fact, the happiest people at this time are the distributors of Youwei Group and offline authorized stores across the country.

The press conference is still going on here. The bosses’ mobile phones are already busy. Almost all of them want to order. Many bosses have even begun to increase prices offline. Tens, twenty, or hundreds of units are being snatched up. , the price increase also went from one hundred, to five hundred, to one thousand...

The judgment on the barrage is correct. When the press conference is over and the mall officially goes on sale, hand speed and Internet speed will inevitably have to compete. Earning as soon as you grab it is not just a perk that Apple can enjoy.

…

"As you have just seen, our Xiaoyi can not only communicate with users, but can even make calls independently with the user's authorization. Then I will introduce to you a more important function of Xiaoyi, which is This function can only be activated with full authorization after real-name authentication, which we call the emergency rescue mode under the critical scene mode."

"This mode includes automatic recognition of critical scenes, and automatically dials alarm, emergency and fire hotlines when high-risk users are unable to seek help on their own. It includes two modes of making calls and sending text messages, and can automatically report addresses. Even if it is not commonly used If a critical situation occurs at the address, the system can also provide a more horizontal position based on the positioning system with an error of less than five meters in longitude and latitude."

"Even in subways where the GPS signal is weak, or in underground passages, tunnels, elevators, etc., the system can automatically use the GPS signal cut-off time, running direction and speed, and use map software to analyze possible addresses and provide More accurate coordinates can be produced, and in this case the error of the broadcast can be controlled within twenty meters."

"We recommend the use of this model by the elderly who live alone, drivers, patients with chronic diseases, and people who need to travel for a long time. But currently most of its functions can only be used in Guangdong Province and Shenzhen. Of course, Youwei Group will also speed up cooperation with various provinces across China We will cooperate with relevant municipal departments to strive to spread this technology across the country as quickly as possible..."

"Of course, as I just said, after introducing this function, I will also reveal the mystery I buried before. So please allow me to once again express my gratitude to the developers of the promising smartphone assistant - our Chinese Salute to the genius mathematician and genius algorithm engineer—Ning Ji from Yanbei University of Physical Education!"

"In addition, you may think that all the demonstrations at today's press conference are routines arranged by us. But it doesn't matter, we have guaranteed to receive prototypes for all offline flagship stores at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, so everyone can go After the on-site experience, you can decide whether to place an order!”

…

Youwei Group’s M10 system smartphone is very popular, and along with M10 comes the name Ning Zi.

Of course, this is not the first time that Ning Zi has become popular online.

The first time was when it was revealed on the Internet that Ning Zi had solved the NS equation and designed the turbulence algorithm. The duration was relatively short. The second time was the remote guidance of Fermilab's lightning test, which was a bit longer...

Today is the third time.

At the new product launch conference of Youwei Group’s M10, it became a hot search along with Youwei’s smartphone assistant.

For more people, the revelation of the mystery can be regarded as a solution to the case. I probably understand why Youwei Group directly sponsored a department of the National Sports University, including the teaching building, dormitories and supercomputing center.

As expected, there is no such thing as love and hate for no reason in this world, and no company is burned by having too much money...

Really, when Fan Zhenhua saw this news on the Internet, he was completely confused!

He originally thought that Ning Zi could persuade Youwei Group to sponsor the construction of the University of Sports Medicine Computer Institute because of the turbulence algorithm, but now it seems that he was wrong.

Also excited are the professors and students from the School of Mathematics at Yanbei University who are researching artificial intelligence.

Word has spread that Ning Jie can answer questions for graduate students in the weekly classes of the Department of Mathematics at the National Sports University.

Now it seems that the questions asked by the first batch of graduate students who have the opportunity to go are probably not what Ning Zi is best at.

Just from the M10’s smart assistant, we can tell that Ning Zi’s best expertise is probably in the field of artificial intelligence...

Some professors also believe that mathematicians who can solve problems such as NS equations should be extremely good at solving artificial intelligence problems. Because as we all know, the NS equation describes the turbulence problem, and the turbulence problem is a complex system problem.

As we all know, it is extremely difficult to study complex systems in physics. The difficulty is that even if the formula is written down, most people cannot understand it. Similarly, if we can make achievements in the research direction of complex systems, it also means that the mathematical methods used by researchers in solving problems will promote the development of artificial intelligence.

The reason is simple.

Theoretically speaking, once a problem has a complete mathematical solution, it means that the problem can be simulated by computers. As we all know, for complex physical systems, if the initial parameters are inconsistent, the conclusions drawn will be very different.

Especially for extremely complex motions like turbulence, if the computer is calculated in a way that requires accurate results at every step, even the most powerful computer in the world may not be able to solve a relatively simple problem after tens of thousands of years. Turbulence.

This is the same as the difference between the human brain and the CPU.

The human brain is definitely not as good as computers in accurate calculations, but the human brain can appear more intelligent than computers. The reason is that the human brain pursues more than just accuracy when processing problems. In particular, the human brain can always directly eliminate interference items that are irrelevant to the task through experience and unconsciously, thereby achieving efficiency far better than that of machines.

It's like when people first enter a public toilet, they feel the smell is very smelly, even unbearable. But as long as I squat in the urinal and take out my mobile phone, after staying there for a few minutes, I can hardly feel the smell.

This is the wonderful thing about the human brain, it can automatically eliminate these distracting clues that have nothing to do with what you are doing. To put it more scientifically, the response of the nervous system to external stimuli will be intelligently adjusted over time.

But machines are different. If a computer with a sense of smell is in the toilet, the smell will always be there for it. And will always interfere with its judgment. This is why computers can seem stupid a lot of the time.

Without the ability to think fuzzy, one can only follow established procedures to complete orders given by humans.

Through these simple analyses, many mathematics professors have concluded that it is not surprising that Ningji can design a program similar to the intelligent voice assistant on the M10 mobile phone. Because this young man probably has mastered too many theoretical foundations about artificial intelligence mathematics.

Some people even suspect that the turbulence algorithm designed by Ning Zhi is not as simple as it appears. It is not as simple as being able to defend against DDOS attacks. Maybe there are other functions hidden in it that no one has discovered yet.

The first guess was initially spread within Yanbei University. It was a guess made by a mathematics professor in class. First, it was posted by undergraduate students in the School of Mathematics at Yanbei University on their own BBS, Weiming Lakeside, and then spread to On China Network.

So this Yanbei University's speculation became popular on the Chinese Internet.

Many netizens who watched the Youwei Group M10 press conference directly attached the glorious title of "the father of new era artificial intelligence" to Ning Zi.

Well, it sounds quite interesting. At least it's more inspiring than the usual "father".

As for the second speculation, it is said that it was originally a sentiment posted by a foreign professor on Twitter. Unfortunately, it did not attract much attention abroad. Probably because the promising M10 launch conference has not yet been held abroad.

Of course, this does not mean that no one abroad is paying attention to this conference. In fact, there are more than just some, and they are also very high-end.

…

Apple CEO Tim Cook opened his eyes at 4 a.m. and started to get up and wash up.

This has been a lifestyle habit he has developed for a long time.

Of course, he had no interest in the streets of New York at four o'clock in the morning. After a simple wash, he directly picked up his iPhone and started working for the day.

Yes, a good day starts with work. Today, Tim Cook's first job is to understand the press conference of Youwei Group. This is a work plan prepared in advance.

Youwei Group's M10 press conference started at 1:30 pm, Beijing time, and lasted for one and a half hours, ending at 3 pm sharp. The United States is still using daylight saving time in October, and Silicon Valley time is 13 hours ahead of China time. This is equivalent to the start time of the press conference being 2:30 a.m. in Silicon Valley time, and the end time being exactly the time Tim Cook gets up, which is 4 a.m.

This is just the right time for the Apple CEO to quickly review what are the advantages of this new product from a Chinese friend.

There is naturally a reason why we attach great importance to Youwei Group.

For Tim Cook, Youwei Group is the second company in the world to independently design its smartphone chips. Coupled with the scientific research strength of Youwei Group in telecommunications network equipment, it is enough to gain the attention of the Apple CEO.

Heroes will cherish each other because they both know how difficult it is to be a hero.

It’s as if Apple knows very well how difficult it is to develop its own chips, but how great the benefits will be if this step is successful.

The easiest to understand benefit is that in the process of designing a mobile phone, designers do not need to consider various hardware configurations and software designs to match other people's chips. On the contrary, you can even let your own chips match the overall design concept of the mobile phone.

This kind of freedom is something that other smartphone manufacturers do not have. It is also one of the reasons why Apple can always occupy the high-end market and even charge Apple tax at the software level.

Now Tim Cook sees the same ambition in Youwei Group. In addition, the performance of Youwei Group's mate9 series has been greatly improved compared to the mate8 series, and there have long been rumors that the mate10 series will be a mobile phone for Youwei Group to officially enter the high-end market. Naturally, it needs to pay attention.

The task was assigned early, and naturally someone had already put English subtitles on this press conference held in China. He just needs to make a cup of coffee after getting up, sit at the dining table, pick up his mobile phone and enter the special APP to start watching.

Sure enough, the new generation Kirin 970 chip was placed at the beginning of the conference, which is probably the biggest highlight of the M10. Tim Cook thought silently in his heart, after carefully reading Ge Dongshu's introduction to the various functions of the Kirin 970. The most important capability of this chip is probably its AI technology...

With a judgment in his mind, Tim Cook began to fast forward, especially the comparison of some appearance and technical parameters with Apple. Tim Cook passed them at three times the speed, until suddenly people on the podium began to change. . The English subtitles also showed that the conference was about to reveal a feature of the M10 that was ahead of its time, which made Tim Cook become interested again and set it to normal speed.

Then the Apple CEO, like other netizens who followed the press conference today, witnessed a miracle.

If when watching Ge Dongshu introduce the various features of Kirin 970, he still remembered to pick up his coffee and take a sip from time to time, then when watching Liao Zhengqiang introduce the M10 artificial intelligence assistant, he always maintained his attention. He was so focused that he didn't even touch the coffee cup at hand.

He looked at the conversation between the mobile phone's smart assistant and the customer service staff of Youwei Group, which was specially marked with English subtitles. He looked at Xiaoyi's alternative interpretation of artificial intelligence, and his expression changed from the relaxed and carefree before to become more serious.

Something was wrong and he couldn't even understand it.

The accumulation of technology takes time, especially for artificial intelligence assistants.

Without long-term semantic recognition training and large capital investment, he could not imagine why the M10 speech recognition assistant could perform like this.

He is well aware of how much Apple has invested in the Siri system over the years, but even so, Siri is far from reaching Xiaoyi, which was only born a few years ago.

This is extremely unscientific!

Directly to the end of the press conference, Liao Zhengqiang read Ning Zi's name to the camera...

Tim Cook pondered for a long time and found the name in his memory bank.

In fact, when Ning Zi's paper solving the NS equation problem was published in the "Annals of Mathematics" and the turbulence algorithm he released surprised countless people during the test, Apple had already noticed this new young mathematician from China.

At that time, I also thought about waving a check to acquire such talents in advance.

It's a pity that neither Ti Da nor Ning Zi gave Apple this chance.

No matter whether it was a phone call to Ning Zi or an email sent to Ning Zi through official channels, it was like falling into the sea, and there was no reply at all.

Not to mention, Apple China also tried to have a direct interview with Ning Zi, but was blocked directly from the building.

Until the photo of Ge Dongshu and Ning Zi from the Youwei Group exploded on the Internet, and Apple learned through its own channels that Ning Zi had not joined the Youwei Group even after the interview between Ge Dongshu and Ning Zi. Lost his mind.

Of course, the observation of Ning Ju continues.

Including the process of guiding the thunder that shocked the world, Tim Cook also paid attention to it, but he only paid attention to it.

This experiment did not help Apple's development.

Even Tim Cook felt that Ning Zi was wasting his time.

It’s understandable that young people are energetic, but there are still many problems that need to be solved in mathematics. Why do they do such messy things?

I just never expected it. I thought this young man would stop for a while. Who knew that Apple would suddenly give him such a big surprise less than a month after it released a new product.

I glanced at the time subconsciously, it was already five o'clock in the morning.

Tim Cook thought for a moment, then decisively picked up his phone and dialed.

The call was made to Bill Stasio, the head of Apple’s Siri.

The phone rang several times before being answered.

It obviously disturbed the other party's clear dream, but Tim Cook still asked directly: "Bill, I want to know how far our Siri technology reserves are."

"Ah? Mr. Cook...you mean now?"

"I want to see the complete report before eight o'clock in the morning. But I suggest you not to sleep anymore. I hope you will take a look at Youwei Group's just-concluded product launch before submitting the complete report. You can only watch the last half Hours, and I will also take time to listen to your report today."

"Then, okay, I'll go check it out later."

"No, don't wait, I want it right away."

"Yes, Mr. Cook, immediately."

"Well, bye then."

After saying that, Tim Cook hung up the phone directly, then came to the study room, opened his mailbox and sent an email directly to the general manager of Apple's China region.

Ten minutes later, a simple video conference was officially held.

There were only two people in this meeting, Apple CEO Tim Cook and Ge Linyue, the newly appointed managing director of Apple Greater China.

"Ge, I believe you have paid attention to Youwei Group's M10 product launch today, right?"

"Of course, Mr. Cook, in fact, I have already asked people to start specifically assessing the impact that the launch of the M1O series products may have on the iPhone 8 series products, and starting to prepare corresponding marketing plans."

Tim Cook nodded with satisfaction.

This is also the reason why he pushed the woman opposite the video to the top position in this most important market, against all opinions. Coming from a technical background, he leads the technical team to publicize multiple technical projects, and at the same time has extremely keen insight into the market.

For example, in this case, the response speed was quite fast.

Tim Cook quickly put forward his own thoughts: "Well, these are of course the work that must be done recently. But the problem now is that we can contact the developer of the M10 intelligent voice assistant, that is, the one named Ning Is he a lonely math genius? I just checked the information and found that he is still studying at Yanbei University of Physical Education and has not joined Youwei Group. In other words, there is no employment relationship between him and Youwei Group. So I am considering, regardless of whether there is We can pay the same price for the group to obtain intelligent voice technology, or even give more, what do you think?"

The other person soon gave an answer: "Of course, Mr. Cook. In fact, I have already booked a flight for tomorrow morning. After arranging things tonight, I will go to the capital to meet with him in person to discuss some matters. Technical cooperation.”

Tim Cook nodded again and said: "Okay. I wish you good luck. If you can meet with him smoothly tomorrow, if you encounter problems that are difficult to decide, you can contact me at any time. I mean twenty Anytime within four hours.”

The other person nodded and said: "I understand. In addition, the release of M10 by Youwei Group at this time may have a great impact on the sales of iPhone 8 series products in China. I suggest giving Chinese partners a more flexible pricing policy while releasing Some of the resources should have been digested by China and transferred to these markets before the M10 was officially launched in the European and American markets."

Tim Cook thought for a moment and said: "I will fully consider your proposal and propose it at today's meeting. So let's stop here today. I'm waiting for your good news."

"Okay, bye."

"goodbye!"

…

Lu Zhengyue had been in a daze since she followed Ning Zi to the room in the administrative building yesterday.

Let’s put it this way.

In the past, although I always said that I was old, in fact, I was not too convinced by it.

Until that day in Ning Zi's room, listening to Ning Zi carefully explain the theories he had studied recently, his head was like paste, and the more he listened, the more confused he became.

In fact, although the content of Ning Ji's current research can also be explained by mathematics, it is indeed very different from the direction of Lu Zhengyue's research. It even made his mind a little confused.

Of course this is a euphemism.

To put it bluntly - I don’t quite understand.

Even at a certain period of time, he could feel that Ning Zi had worked very hard to break down some complicated mathematical processes, just so that he could understand the principles. His serious look was very similar to when he had just started. What it looks like when taking care of students.

At that time, he was only thirty or forty years old, which was when mathematicians were most energetic and high-spirited.

Really, at that time, he felt that he had clearly explained a certain knowledge point, and even a pig should understand it. But when those students always looked confused, he felt that these students were as pure as As cute as Peppa Pig.

For example, when proving a certain lemma, there are obviously shortcuts available, and the link method is much simpler than jump. However, some students just don't understand the difference and must use those cumbersome methods to lead themselves to a dead end.

For this reason, he even said something to many students who wanted to apply for his graduate school: "If you are not talented enough, don't delve into number theory! You don't need so many people to study number theory, only the most talented ones." Enough is enough.”

After leaving Ning Zi's place yesterday, Lu Zhengyue only felt that Ning Zi was the same person he once was, and he had become the student that he could never teach...

People really have to accept old age!

Originally, Lu Zhengyue's mentality was good.

Anyway, he didn't come to the University with the intention of teaching Ning Zi too many things.

But he couldn't understand what Ning Zi had studied, which was a bit too much.

Although when I was tossing and turning in bed that night, I still felt that I had found some mathematical connections, but it was embarrassing enough when I thought about it carefully.

Unfortunately, Lu Zhengyue didn't know that there were mathematicians in their prime who, after analyzing the turbulence algorithm, found several formulas and were frightened by these formulas and ran away. Otherwise, his mood would have been much relieved.

But at this moment, he just felt that he should accept his old age.

It's just that some people are serving old age, probably because they are thinking about a better retirement life. Although some people are serving old age, their desire to fight on the second battlefield is even stronger.

Yes, although I, Lu Zhengyue, am already 67 this year, it is indeed becoming more and more difficult for me to understand the new mathematical system, and I cannot keep up with my energy. But a sluggish brain doesn't mean that things like developing a mathematics department can't be done well.

So after a peaceful day, when Lu Zhengyue saw the excellent performance of M10 at the Youwei Group press conference, he directly held a meeting of the Department of Mathematics of the University of Physical Education that day, and had an argument with Fan Zhenhua on the phone the next day. stand up.

"What? Eight thousand per class? Lu Zhengyue, why don't you go and grab it?!"

"Ha...is this considered a robbery? I'm just informing you! Fan, with 8,000 class hours, how expensive are you to get guidance from Ning Zi?

"Can that be the same?"

"Yes, it is indeed different. In the lecture, Ning Zi does not need to solve the problems in their thesis for a bunch of graduate students and doctoral students! Believe it or not, for just 8,000 yuan per class, our Department of Mathematics at the Physical Education University allows other Ph.D. students from the school come to class, and it’s always full every day!”

"you……"

"What's wrong? I'm the deputy director of the Department of Mathematics at the National Sports University. The Department of Mathematics has entrusted me with full authority to take charge of this matter. Anyway, it's been decided that you have to come to the finance department and pay the money. From now on, graduate and doctoral students in Yanbei will not be able to enter the classroom. Financial invoices for the current week are required.”

"In this case, Lao Lu, I won't argue with you anymore. Let's not say that Baqian is in charge for one semester. Can it be valid for the same month?"

"Haha, it's not that I can't consider it. But... please beg me!"

"you……"

While the two old men, who together were over a hundred years old, were arguing lively on the phone, Apple Vice President Ge Linyue had already got off the plane at Beijing International Airport and rushed directly to Yanbei University of Sports...
