Mixed In the United States As a Local Tyrant

  Chapter 336 Xiaobai's new toy

According to Anfeng's prediction on the life cycle of electronic products, it can be popular for about three to four generations. GP's current technology is very novel and advanced, but when users hold the first, second or third generation phones and reach aesthetic fatigue, it cannot Innovate and decline.

  An Feng's goal is straightforward: wait until the most profitable peak period, he must have reaped enough profits, and then cash out Joanna's 30% share. This will be a long-term operation, because it often takes half a year or even more time for the stock market to digest it for major shareholders to cash out.

The profit from profit to stock cashing may bring about 50 billion U.S. dollars in profit. If it develops better, for example, if the market value of Burger Company is 300 billion, a 30% share means 90 billion. Adding operating profit, a proper It is more than 100 billion, and the future is very bright.

  An Feng's real idea is to inflate the brand value and sell it slowly at the high point of the stock price. As for making money from selling mobile phones, to be honest, it is really not as profitable as selling shares. The intentions are sinister, but the words are the same, the stock market is risky. After the press conference, they went to Oxfordshire to pick up people.

  Joanna's former housekeeper, Mr. Arthur Brandon decided to come out to help them deal with the current "mess". Joanna intentionally made a terrible statement about her life. After gaining sympathy, even the coldest ice cubes will melt, let alone this enthusiastic old man.

   For a real top professional butler, the annual salary of one million pounds is certain, even if other people ask for one million pounds, the old man is not interested. This time it was very face-saving, and the old man also said that in addition to choosing qualified servants, he would also help them train their successor housekeepers.

  Brandon is old and will have to retire sooner or later. Training qualified butlers for them is his current idea. An Feng knows very little about this, and he still has a lot to learn. As a "noble teacher", the purpose of the British butler's existence is to make the master look like a three-generation nobleman.

  With the change of An Feng's status, he does not require himself to be like a traditional British nobleman—too rigid and boring, but in terms of behavior, he must at least conform to his identity. So he needs a teacher like Brandon to perfect all his shortcomings.

  …

  Back to California, Brandon began to preside over the work.

  Wu Qian didn't reject this, on the contrary, she wanted to ask Brandon for advice. In the industry, it is very rare to meet a real top butler, especially in a place like the United States, where it is almost impossible. And if the family is large, both a butler and a housekeeper are needed.

Brandon began to get acquainted with every aspect of Anfeng's life, including his residence, habits, and the status and social status of his guests... The final result is very satisfactory. Anfeng's circle of friends is concentrated in the upper class, and there are even some affected Nobles who are sealed are not boring.

   An Feng, who has no worries, continues to work.

  The research and development of the robot company has two focuses: humanoid machines and biological machines.

  The humanoid machine is nicknamed "Terminator" by everyone. It is very vivid, but it is not as powerful as in the movie, invulnerable to fire and water. The current experimental model has an attack capability beyond ordinary people, but it is also very fragile. Once the circuit board is damaged, it will lose control.

  Hoffman's group is considering simplifying or putting the protection circuit, such as building the circuit into the bone, or reducing the core of the mechanical drive, and adopting a modular design for easy replacement. It needs to be done step by step, thankfully, the conditions are good enough for them to play.

  Biological machines, to put it bluntly, are parts other than humanoid machines.

For example, the mechanical dog that An Feng saw last time, don’t look at it can only be cute and coquettish, and is harmless to humans and animals. Just replace the chip for it, so that when it runs the program of a tiger, it will face a dog made of exoskeleton and titanium alloy. machine, it will be the nightmare of many carbon-based organisms.

The research and development of biological machines is faster than humanoid machines, because it is relatively simple. At present, chips that store species information can be implanted into biological bodies, and use the best battery sold by GP Energy, and the battery life of a simulated medium-sized pet dog Around five to six hours.

   It seems very short, but it is impossible for a real pet to play with you for five or six hours without getting tired. During the intermission, you can charge it. Graphene batteries have one property: fast! Using a special high-voltage charger, it can be charged to 70% in five minutes and fully charged in ten minutes.

  When An Feng was teasing the dog in the laboratory, he suddenly thought of a good idea.

   Make one yourself.

   The idea has been there before, but not as well developed as it is now. Now that the technology is mature and there are 3D printers, he is fully qualified to create a unique robot pet. In terms of proficiency, he is the most powerful technical man in the world - just impatient.

As long as he has a goal, he is very motivated. Now it’s time to find a little partner for Xiaobai. It has never had a suitable opponent. It is impossible for people to play with it. It is difficult to meet ferocious beasts in places like the United States. , In the end, only oneself can create the conditions.

   Do it as soon as you think of it, procrastination is not good. An Feng went to draw first, he needed a body length of 120 cm, a weight of about 100 kg, fast speed, strong attack power, and he had to withstand the impact. Be Xiaobai's friend at ordinary times, and can take care of the nursing home when necessary.

  After thinking about it, the figure of the leopard appeared in his mind. No matter in size, speed, or attack ability, it was in line with An Feng's imagination. He drew the design in his mind, then called in helpers and asked to make it a holographic three-dimensional map.

  After the hologram is formed, precision components can be manufactured with a 3D printer, which is much more costly than traditional subtractive manufacturing methods, but since there are high technologies, he will not consider anything else. In terms of appearance, considering frequent biting and collisions, An Feng uses some tough but not hard synthetics.

   It took a few days to complete the conception. The interior of the robot pet is mainly made of titanium alloy, which is strong enough, let alone a tiger bite, even a bomb may not be able to destroy it. For the skin part, a soft but not easily damaged material is used in order to avoid damage to the tiger's teeth.

  …

a week later.

  An Feng's plane returned to the vineyard from San Jose and brought a mysterious gift.

He got off the plane, followed by a pet with a gray-gold leopard print. Anyone who looked at it knew it was an adult-sized leopard, but in the details such as eyes and walking, he could feel the mechanization, and if If you touch it, you can feel the coldness.

   "Honey, come here!" An Feng said impatiently as soon as he entered the room.

   "What is it?" She came out, her eyes swept over the leopard behind An Feng, "A leopard? Where did you bring it back?"

   "It's called 'Xiaohua', Xiaobai's new friend." An Feng knelt down and rubbed the mechanical leopard's head, no matter how vulgar the name was, he called it by the way.

   "Can they live in peace?" Joanna walked over. Although she didn't know what An Feng was doing, she felt that the leopards were not hostile.

   "Of course." An Feng said with certainty, "Of course they will fight too. I brought Xiaohua back to relieve Xiaobai's boredom."

   "Isn't it proportional?" Joanna sat down and looked at the unblinking leopard, feeling that its eyes were dull and lifeless... It seemed that it was not breathing.

  An Feng said with a smile: "If it is true, the leopard will definitely lose to the tiger, but haven't you found out yet?"

  Joanna stretched out her hand towards the leopard, and seeing that An Feng didn't intend to warn, she felt relieved to touch the leopard's head.

  It is very docile, but the coldness and sluggishness reminded Joanna, she said in surprise: "Is it a robot?"

   "It's a mechanical creature!" An Feng corrected, "Right, Xiao Hua?"

  The mechanical leopard shook its bionic tail, and arched its head towards Joanna's palm. The leopard print is soft and comfortable, but it feels weird.

An Feng introduced: "There are pet dog programs in its chip, as well as hunting dogs and leopard programs. The conventional programs are not aggressive to humans. But when I use the remote control to put it into defense or attack state, the marked target will be It will become the target of its attack. There is also a safety insurance, start it, and the machine will stop running immediately. After testing, the probability of its failure is very low.”

   "It's unbelievable!" Joanna looked at the leopard.

   "There are so many magical places." An Feng said with a smile, "Let's go and call Xiaobai here, let them get to know each other, and they will be good girlfriends in the future."

   "Haha!" Joanna laughed at his strange way of addressing him.

Later, Xiaobai and Xiaohua met in the garden. Out of biological alertness, Xiaobai immediately felt that Xiaohua was abnormal—although it had the appearance of a creature, it did not have any biological characteristics, including smell, breath and momentum. . Xiaobai is particularly sensitive to these.

  Xiao Bai looked at Xiao Hua very vigilantly, all the muscles in his body were tense, as long as the master gave an order, it could rush over and tear this uncertain thing apart. But An Feng gave it a very friendly command, squatted down to comfort it, and Xiao Hua followed the animal procedure to contact Xiao Bai.

  Animals are animals after all, and after getting acquainted with one another, they become partners.

   "Smart enough?" An Feng looked back at the surprised Joanna.

  Joanna nodded.

"If I want it to be smarter, I can connect it to the computer in my office, give it faster calculation speed, make more agile judgments, and help correct program errors." An Feng introduced that the performance of the built-in chip core is limited. , use the cloud network to connect the minicomputer, it will be more "normal".

  Afterwards, the fight between dragons and tigers that An Feng was looking forward to was also staged. They are also fierce beasts. Xiaobai and Xiaohua cannot coexist peacefully like little white rabbits. They will target each other and constantly practice their culling skills to bite or avoid opponents. Train skills in real combat.

Although Xiaobai's body is a bit larger than Xiaohua's, Xiaohua is a mechanical creature with an exoskeleton and powerful power. It is completely evenly matched. Xiaobai can slap it to the corner, and Xiaohua can also bounce it quickly. Pressed to the ground and bit his throat.

   Under the normal procedure, Xiaohua has no lethality. Its attack is limited. Its mouth has no teeth. It just makes Xiaobai feel nervous and his own mistakes, so as to alert it. Its four metal canines are only exposed when Xiaohua enters the hunting state.

Xiaobai knew that this was his friend—although the ability to resist attacks was too strong, he didn't really bite when biting. An Feng checked the bitten parts of Xiaohua several times, and there were only faint marks. Take a bite and it will leave a deep bite mark.

   It can be seen that Xiaobai likes his new partner very much.

An Feng is also satisfied. He has been worrying about how to train Xiaobai. The United States naturally does not have the environment of the African savannah, but it is not good for Xiaobai to live a lazy life. Now that he has a new toy, he plays a game every day. Persevere, sooner or later it will be able to dominate the grassland.
