Time Travel: 2014

At 10:30 am on the 20th in Massachusetts (corresponding to 11:30 pm on the 20th BJ time), Eve Carly had already made the "LIN HUI Generative Text Summarization Algorithm" based on previous research content. "Feasibility Report", although the name of the report is "Feasibility Report", in fact, Eve Carly spent almost the entire report saying that it is not feasible to follow up on the LINHUI algorithm in a short time.

Although it is a bit tiring to give in before the corresponding technical follow-up has been officially carried out, Eve Carly firmly believes that "giving in" is the wisest choice now.

However, when she took the report into the office of Ewald Cherry, head of the Natural Language Processing Research Program at MIT, and submitted the report.

Ewald Cherry only briefly looked through it and placed the report on the left side of the desk.

Eve Carly has submitted a lot of messy reports. She understands Ewald Cherry's habits and knows that putting the report on the left basically means that the matter will be put on hold temporarily.

Why should such a harmless plan be shelved?

Eve Carly was a little puzzled.

Ewald Cherry is the director of the Natural Language Processing Research Center at MIT.

But in fact, Ewald Cherry is only responsible for the handover between the MIT Natural Language Processing Center and Google/Google.

Eve Carley and Ewald Cherry do not have a clear reporting relationship.

Therefore, Eve Carly had nothing to be taboo about and asked directly:

"Excuse me, do you think my report is unreasonable? Why do you want to shelve this plan?

You must know that my suggestion to Google to acquire this algorithm in a timely manner was carefully considered.

Even though it will cost Google/Google some money to purchase this algorithm, it will definitely be worth it.

Considering the expensive research and development expenses and various miscellaneous expenses in the United States.

Even if we know the technical route.

The actual implementation is likely to cost more than directly purchasing the technology of the Chinese team.

The most important thing is that it will take a lot of time for us to carry out technical follow-up.

But now Chinese developers have moved ahead of us.

If we cannot master this patent as soon as possible, even if we can eventually break down the technical barriers, we will still face market barriers from competitors.

You have to understand that market barriers are sometimes even more disappointing than technical barriers. "

Ewald Cherry: "Dear Ms. Eve Carly, I understand your eagerness. I would like to ask, are you really sure that the technology proposed by LINHUI is so excellent?"

Eve Carly: “Of course I’m sure, are you questioning my professional ability?

Even if you can question my own abilities, you can't question our team.

You must know that the report I submitted to you is the crystallization of the wisdom of our entire text summarization algorithm team.

Although we lost to Chinese developers in past algorithm competitions.

However, we know the value of generative text summarization algorithms better than anyone in the world except LINHUI.

It is no exaggeration to say that this algorithm is of epoch-making significance for text summarization..."

Ewald Cherry: "Ms. Eve Carly, please don't get excited. Of course I believe in the ability of you and your team. I am also a researcher in natural language processing, and I am also eager to learn about generative expressions. The summary algorithm is an extremely magical algorithm. Get a glimpse of it as soon as possible.

But we don’t have to rely on buying and selling to acquire technology. Use your sharp mind and think about it. In fact, we have a better idea! "

Eve Carley: “Oh my God, it’s civilized times now.

Are you going to use the tricks of early Silicon Valley?

It’s okay that I didn’t know about this. I know that I absolutely cannot tolerate this happening.

You must not trample on other people's intellectual property rights in such a flagrant and wanton manner. "
