The End of Technology

During the ten minutes after the plane landed, Dominic Duncan was in a trance. He wanted to say something to Ning Zi, but with Zhai Qiuxian around, his rationality made him give up the discussion at this time until the plane successfully landed at the Beijing Airport.

He thought he would be able to discuss this issue with Ning Zi after returning to Ti University.

But after getting off the plane, Dominic Duncan was shocked to find that there was already a car parked under the plane.

After a simple welcome ceremony, Ning Zi was politely invited to the first car, and Zhai Qiuxian followed. And he was taken to the second car by the staff from the University of Sports.

Although the staff spoke very nicely this time, congratulating him one after another for winning the Fields Medal, they even smiled a lot more. But that's not what he wants. At this time, Dominette Duncan just wanted to have a good chat with Ning Zi.

After all, he is still young, only 26 years old. He didn't want to leave his life without a choice at this time.

But thinking about the review of the paper just now...

Dominette Duncan suddenly raised his hand and slapped himself hard.

The crisp sound stunned the staff responsible for welcoming him.

This is a young Fields Medal professor, a being who will be enshrined wherever he goes. How incomprehensible must he be to slap himself like this? Of course, he couldn't figure out that the young professor was annoyed that he had been staring at the paper just now...

He should have returned the computer to Ning Zi immediately after reading the review. Is that something he should have access to?

But it's too late to say anything at this time...

Suddenly, Dominette Duncan thought of someone.

Yes, that’s Conan Lamar.

At this time, looking around the entire university, this professor is probably the only one who can understand him.

…

Ning Zi was sitting in a car with a high-end interior, holding the kitten in her arms. Ning Zi didn't know the staff member who specially greeted him. But when he saw that Zhai Qiuxian checked the other party's ID before letting him get into the car, he naturally had no objection.

These are all things that have been expected. It would be abnormal if no one picked him up. There are always things that need to be communicated clearly.

Originally, Zhai Qiuxian was not included in the invitation, but after Ning Zi got in the car, she said, "Let's come together."

The staff member responsible for picking people up asked Zhai Qiuxian to get in the car.

After the car started, the staff gave a very warm and consoling sentence: "Congratulations on winning the Fields Medal in Mathematics, Professor Ning. Don't be nervous, I just invite you to have a talk."

Of course, Ning Zi responded appropriately: "I'm not a professor, and I'm not nervous either."

Forehead……

Then there's really nothing to talk about.

In fact, the receptionist really wanted to chat with Ning Zi for a few more words, but when he saw Ning Zi closing his eyes, he closed his mouth knowingly.

After all, the whole world now knows that the young man in front of him is awesome. This can no longer be concealed by keeping a low profile. When people react, they will soon find that none of the richest people on the Forbes list can compare with this young man.

Even the life and death of some of them were in Ning Zi's hands. To be honest, this is an ability that can only be mastered by many high-ranking people, but these high-ranking people are not as willful as Ning Zi and can play games without any scruples.

Just like the lecture that ended not long ago, it can be said that this year's World Congress of Mathematicians has been eclipsed after Ning Zi left. After all, after Ning Zi's report meeting, most people's attention at this time was no longer on pure mathematical research.

It can be seen with the naked eye that the number of downloads of the original test source code of the turbulence algorithm on the March forum is rising again. Apparently, many mathematicians have become interested in the mathematical structures introduced by Ning Zi at the report meeting, and are willing to spend double the membership fee just to download the source code and study it.

This shows that the attention of many mathematicians is actually very realistic.

At this time, if you can solve the mathematical puzzles that Ning Zi left in the source code, although no mathematics institute will offer a million-dollar bonus, the benefits that can be harvested are probably hundreds or even thousands of million-dollar bonuses.

From this point, we can probably see that the world has never lacked people who have no self-awareness. This is true in any field, even in the scientific field.

Of course, these are not things that Ning Zi is concerned about.

Since the source code is given, I am not afraid to study it.

If someone really researches something, the most likely possibility is that the university will have many senior mathematics professors.

This is March's principle of dealing with things. This kitten, who has always been strong in his life, can allow others not to lose, but he must win.

…

Soon the car drove into a building and stopped.

Ning Zi and Zhai Qiuxian were invited to wait in the reception room. Someone brought good tea. Another staff member told Ning Zi apologetically: "I'm sorry, Professor Ning, the boss is taking an unplanned phone call. Maybe he will." It will take about ten minutes.”

Ning Zi nodded.

He was too lazy to correct the title of professor.

Call me whatever you like.

Fortunately, it didn't take long before the staff came to pick up Ning Zi again.

Zhai Qiuxian couldn't follow this time, but she could help Ning Jue look after the kitten.

Although Ningji's cat really does not need someone to take care of it, this is obviously not a common understanding among everyone.

So the kitten passively fell into Zhai Qiuxian's arms. What was annoying was that the lively cat's face actually showed a look of despair.

Fortunately, Zhai Qiuxian couldn't see it, otherwise she might have chosen to throw it out directly.

…

Passing through a long corridor, in the office in a small courtyard at the end of the corridor, Ning Zi met the boss who specially invited him here today.

The boss who was exercising was very cute. He pointed to the sofa in the office and said, "Comrade Xiao Ning is here. Sit down. Sit down. What do you want to drink? Let Xiao Sun get it for you."

"Just keep it cool and it will be fine."

"You really don't want to drink some tea? I have some teas here that taste pretty good."

"I don't like tea, but we, Principal Chen, like it. I had to try it before. It didn't taste good."

"Haha, let's get some cold drinks. By the way, Xiao Sun, since Principal Chen also likes tea, remember to pick out two cans of good tea later and let Ning Zi take it back for him to try." The guy said with a smile.

"Okay, boss."

…

Yanbei Sports University, staff community, gate tower.

The entire entrance door has been transformed and becomes much more atmospheric.

The concierge's room on the left, which was only about 30 square meters, was demolished and rebuilt to nearly 100 square meters. The old gate that required the concierge to confirm opening with a remote control key was replaced this time with the latest fully automatic license plate recognition system.

Even the gate for people to pass through has been replaced with an intelligent system, and the security level is much stronger than before.

Not to mention that there is an additional guard box on the other side, with young guards standing guard every day.

Not to mention, just the renovation of the front of the community has at least improved the feeling of the community to a higher level.

Of course, for Lao Ning, life has not changed much.

It's just that fishing at work can be more upright.

Anyway, he doesn't need to do much work, and there are more people who can chat with him. When nothing happens, even if he goes for a walk, he still has someone to accompany him, which makes it more comfortable.

Not to mention that they now have a car specially arranged for the guard class, a Hongqi brand.

It is said to be a collective car for the community guard class, but the key is kept with him. Lao Ning needs to go somewhere far away. He can just ask someone to drive him there directly. It is convenient to go anywhere and it is quite fast. And there is no need to worry about odd and even number restrictions, it can be used at any time.

Lao Ning once asked this question in confusion, and the answer he received was that it was the company's car and it was fine.

Lao Ning accepted this explanation. After all, in his understanding, the units back then were almost invincible. However, Lao Ning didn't know that units were actually divided into three, six, and nine levels.

Anyway, life was better for Lao Ning.

At first he was too embarrassed to use the car, but later he found that people were actively urging him to use the car when he didn't need it, so he didn't bother to be reserved. Anyway, he knows very well that he is more valuable than his father and his son, and as long as it is not too much, he can probably deserve it.

So after getting a car, Lao Ning's range of activities became much wider.

It is more convenient to fish at night, and those young people will help him build a nest...

It was also more convenient to visit Ning's family. As long as Ning Yulin and Ning Xiao were there, he could visit anytime he wanted. He can often sneak to school and take Ning Yulin to have a big meal. I'm going to my brother's place for a drink in the evening and bragging. He wasn't afraid of delaying things, since there was always someone waiting to see him off.

Of course, Lao Ning also has that kind of arrogant temperament. He always believed that helping him drive was like asking for help, so he was naturally enthusiastic enough not to treat him badly, and he naturally had a good relationship with everyone in the class.

This also makes Lao Ning's job as a community concierge more and more fulfilling, and he feels as carefree as a god.

How should I put it? He is probably a low-class man who is less than half a century old. He has not had time to experience the sourness of this class at this age. As a result, his son suddenly becomes successful and directly completes the class jump and realizes a life of winning without hesitation. This can be found Who can reason?

However, this peaceful and beautiful life was finally broken today.

Yes, when Lao Ning saw Luo Weimin coming to him with two bottles of good wine and a good cigarette, he felt that something was wrong.

Facts also proved his judgment.

Luo Weimin just put down the gift, and when he sat there, he couldn't wait to congratulate: "Old Ning, good news, you have been rated as an outstanding security guard in the community, and you have been favored by the superiors. The next step is to be promoted. I promise to go there this time. It’s a great place, and it definitely doesn’t crowd out anyone’s place, and it won’t make it difficult for your family to live alone. Congratulations!”

Lao Ning curled his lips and said, "Come on, Leader Luo, who are you trying to fool? Is it because our Ning Zi won another award from the Philippines?"

Yes, although Lao Ning has a smartphone, he mainly uses it to make payments and watch operas. He is still not used to surfing the Internet. As for knowing that Ning Zi had won the award, it was because Ti Da's banners were hanging everywhere, including one at the door of the community.

So he really didn't know that after Ning Zi won the Fields Medal, he would intimidate most of the world at a report conference and like to mention the world's invisible richest man.

Luo Weimin could only smile bitterly.

He didn't even know how to explain Ning Zi's achievements to Lao Ning.

But there is no way, now Lao Ning is really not suitable to stay as a concierge at the gate of the community. With Ning Jie's status, Luo Weimin wanted to give Lao Ning up and continue to let him stay at the gate of the community. If he happened to come across him, he really couldn't bear that responsibility.

After thinking about it, he simply took out his mobile phone and followed the strategy he had just thought of to find an article he saw on the Internet, then handed it over and said, "Old Ning, I know you don't want to take advantage of Ning Zi. But Ning Zi is now almost the richest man in the world. It doesn’t matter to you that you are a concierge here, but think about it, what will other people think of Ning Zi every time they pass by?"

Lao Ning was stunned and took Luo Weimin's cell phone with a suspicious look on his face. He really couldn't understand how Ning Zi could become the richest man in the world just by going to another country to win a prize... But he also believed that Luo Weimin would not make nonsense to deceive him. He just read the beginning of the article and was about to turn the page. By the time, it was gone...

"What is this? Doesn't it just mean that he went to attend a meeting? He disappeared after that. Why is he the richest man but not the richest man?"

"Ah?" Luo Weimin was stunned. He took his cell phone from Lao Ning and looked at it. He immediately understood that the article had been deleted.

Okay, maybe this article is too exaggerated. In fact, Luo Weimin also feels that some of the content in it is exaggerated. I originally thought that exaggerating it would help Lao Ning understand how promising his son was, but it was deleted.

"Wait a minute, there may be something wrong with the system. I'm looking for you. Hey, Old Ning, you really don't know how successful Ning Zi is now. Let's put it this way, he developed a program before, It is for use on the Internet. Now people all over the world have to buy it from him. If you don’t buy it, you won’t be able to use the Internet properly in the future, just like you can’t listen to things you usually listen to on your mobile phone, and you can’t pay with your mobile phone. How profitable do you think this is?"

Luo Weimin struggled to explain while typing the word Ningji into the browser, but before he could finish his work, Lao Ning's cell phone rang first.

Seeing that the call was from his eldest brother, Lao Ning was too lazy to be polite to Luo Weimin and said, "Please answer my brother's call first."

Luo Weimin said quickly: "It's okay, it's okay, I just have to look for you here."

Lao Ning answered the phone with peace of mind.

When the call was connected, Ning Jian's voice was filled with excitement and a hint of worry: "Ning Kang, have you heard? Xiaojie did something big again. He said he invented some kind of turbulence algorithm before. There seemed to be some problems before. Big companies don't follow martial ethics and just used it without giving them money. As a result, something went wrong now and they have to beg for help. And they have to continue to give money in the future. I heard that this matter was a big deal and many people were taken away. Even the big shots can’t deal with it.”

"What? What do you mean you can't deal with big shots?"

"No one knows how to deal with this matter right now. Some departments that need to deal with the outside world are said to have been working overtime in the past two days. I don't know very well. I heard it from my colleagues. I don't know how well-informed they are. Oh, by the way, this happened yesterday, but Ning Zi hadn’t come back yet, so she didn’t dare to mention it to me for fear of any accident. Now she dares to tell me after Ning Zi comes back safely.”

"Huh, Ning Zi has come back? That's good, but is this a good thing or a bad thing?"

"Hey, what can I say? I saw people on the Internet saying that our little kid is going to become the invisible richest man in the world. What happened...I called you because I wanted you to find a chance to talk to the little kid. What I fear most is that a young man will become complacent and lose his sense of proportion. Especially at times like this, I thought it would be better to keep a low profile and be steady. Money is a good thing. But if you have too much, you may not be able to succeed. Trouble. You have to be more careful with your words and actions."

Although Lao Ning did not turn on the speakerphone, the two Ning brothers both had loud voices, and the air-conditioned concierge was quite quiet even with the doors and windows closed. Luo Weimin could basically hear the conversation between the two clearly, so he stopped. Made the move in his hand.

Really, Luo Weimin was quite grateful to Ning Ju's uncle. It's much better to have this person explain it than him.

Speaking of which, he really admired the two Ning brothers.

If his son could achieve such an achievement, he would probably be so beautiful at this time, how could he think so much?

But soon Luo Weimin was diverted by Lao Ning's words.

"Yes, yes, I think that's the case. But this kid should be measured. You also know that this kid has his own opinions since he was young. There are some things I can't say. But he listens to you. I'll take him later. Help me talk to him about your meal. By the way, brother, our leader Luo came to me again and said that I have to change places this time. What do you think? "

Luo Weimin looked at Lao Ning's phone call eagerly, praying secretly in his heart that it would be best if the elder brother opposite him could understand this matter.

The concierge is very awesome, so it's okay to put it in the story. But for an uncle who is so awesome, it doesn’t matter if no one knows about it. It’s extremely stressful to know who is the direct leader.

Not only is he under a lot of pressure, the security departments around him will go crazy after a while.

"How can this be seen? Now and then, don't embarrass other leaders. You live comfortably in that concierge every day. Other leaders have headaches every day and don't know what to do with you. It's just a community. The security system will have to put a lot of people in for you, which will make things difficult for others. You should just listen to others' arrangements. If that doesn't work, let Ning Zi buy you a house near the park, and you can retire early. In the past, you raised a child Jie, it is only natural and right for him to support you now."

Really, after hearing Ning Kang's words, Luo Weimin was so moved that he almost shed tears.

This is what makes people understand everything.

This eldest brother is able to do a great job in the union, and everyone is willing to talk to him about everything. Sure enough, there is a reason.

Luo Weimin knows the people in the agency very well. If he really doesn't want to make friends with a certain outsider who lands in the air, but this person has a very deep background, there may be a lot of flattery in daily life, and all superficial relationships can be maintained. Excellent. But the really useful news will definitely not reach the ears of such an outsider.

"This...then that's okay, I listen to my brother. Hey...I'm just thinking about it, it doesn't seem to be good for this kid to be too promising."

"Okay, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. We have a meeting later. When the child is free, bring him to my place for dinner. Notify me in advance and I will ask Ning Xiao to bring Yulin over."

"Okay, I'll ask him later."

"Well, it's hung up."

"Bye."

Lao Ning hung up the phone, sighed deeply, then looked at Luo Weimin, put the phone on the table, and said, "Okay, Leader Luo, you just said you would change my unit. Where did you change it to?"

"Oh, Lao Ning, what kind of leader doesn't lead? Didn't we agree last time that we can just call me Xiao Luo? Come on, come on, take a look, you can arrange the units and positions on this list, whatever you like Tell me, don't be in a hurry, take your time and choose. Don't be embarrassed, people sent these to me on their own initiative, and they all rushed to let me put them in the front row."

With that said, Luo Weimin took out a stack of A4 paper that had already been printed from his bag and handed it over. The unit, positions provided, and benefits were all clearly listed.

Lao Ning took the document handed over by Luo Weimin in astonishment, glanced at it, and said to Luo Weimin: "Okay, Leader Luo, I'd like to trouble you first. Where are the cutoff points for those units rushing to be in front of the queue? Help me draw them." come out."

"Ah? Why?" Luo Weimin was stunned and asked.

"Hehe..." Lao Ning smiled slyly and said: "I don't have much ability, and people are trying to get me, so why don't you want to go to Ning Jie to deal with something? If you can avoid the trap, avoid it in advance. I am I simply don’t want to sit around at home every day, and besides, I don’t have to live on that salary in the future, right?”

"Uh..." Luo Weimin suddenly felt that there was too much nonsense just now.

…

USA, Silicon Valley, Cisco headquarters.

It was already late at night, but the lights in the large conference room of the building were still bright.

If you open the door of the conference room at this time, you can see and hear more than a dozen gentlemen arguing loudly with red faces and thick necks.

But sadly, no one paid attention at this time. Three seats were temporarily vacant in front of the large oval conference table that could accommodate all members of the board of directors. No one would even mention that the three people sitting here were their companions.

It was probably because the only spot on the left hand side was vacant that the argument got so out of control.

No way, Chamberson Carey, who has passed away, was not only the CEO of Cisco, but also the chairman of Cisco.

"Okay, gentlemen, please be quiet..."

Finally, Nicholas Harold, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help it and said loudly.

As the vice chairman of Cisco, he was actually supposed to sit in Chamberson Carey's position, but he refused. Not only did he refuse, but in fact when Cisco lost its leader, the shareholders' meeting reacted immediately, hoping to find someone immediately who could turn the tide.

But obviously, such a person has not yet been found. Or it's hard to find.

There were many people who coveted Chamberson's position before, but now those who coveted it are no longer interested. After all, facing the current situation, no one knows how long the Cisco ship can sail.

The issue that the board of directors is debating at this time is whether the company should apply for bankruptcy directly to the court or apply for bankruptcy protection.

It is no exaggeration to say that Cisco, a telecommunications network equipment company, is insolvent. This is no exaggeration. The extreme expansion of the business line last year brought huge cash flow to the company, almost all of which was used to expand and upgrade production lines, as well as the upgrading of the global industrial chain...

Obviously, this is the choice to maximize capital interests.

Facing a huge blue ocean market, no one can say that this choice is wrong when their own equipment is still receiving rave reviews after being launched on the market for more than half a year.

In fact, not only them, but also most companies such as Ericsson and Samsung Semiconductor do this.

Not to mention the compensation proposed by Party A, just recalling all the problematic equipment and then refunding it will directly kill this leading company. Not to mention there are countless orders that Cisco will have to break. Yes, Cisco is no longer able to produce products certified with activation codes.

Because all the activation code generators on the forum in March have expired.

According to the explanation of the announcement, activation code authentication is now only open to merchants that have not infringed before. For merchants who have infringed upon the infringement, they need to coordinate the infringement compensation before they will consider opening the activation code authentication service to them. Therefore, the public activation code authentication tool has been temporarily invalidated.

In other words, currently only two Chinese network equipment manufacturers can continue to produce various types of network equipment with genuine turbulence algorithms.

This is a really fucked up thing.

But there is nothing we can do.

Even the company's legal department can't do anything about this situation.

At least for now, there is almost no law to help them. In fact, this has never been the case in patent cases around the world.

The other party has not applied for a patent, but so far, no one has been able to crack this new defense method.

In fact, even if someone cracks it now, no one would dare to use it. What if there are still holes in it?

Of course, Cisco can also immediately find a way to restore all installed products from now on. But for one thing, the inventory that currently does not have turbulence chips installed is insufficient. Within a year, those products that were lagging behind an era have been sold at low prices to poor countries that do not have such high requirements for network security.

Secondly, even if it can be restored to its original state, not only will it cost a lot more, but the Internet in these areas will also be exposed to the risk of DDOS attacks again.

Before, it didn’t matter that the whole world was plagued by DDOS attacks, but this year, Youwei Group and CEFC have been deeply exploring the Chinese market. Including China's three major telecom operators, as well as countless important websites, industries, and cloud service providers, all have been updated to the latest turbulence defense mode, which also means that China's internal network is basically equipped with the ability to perfectly resist DDOS attacks.

So assuming that the global bandwidth available for DDOS attacks has not decreased, but a super cyber power has become completely immune to this attack mode, how much will the risk of other regions and key industries facing DDOS attacks increase?

After all, it is impossible for such a huge black industry to keep its eyes on that poor place in Africa.

If China goes a little further and uses lower prices to arm those third world countries that it has good relations with, it will be a lot of fun.

After going around and around, there is no solution.

But this happens to be the reason why some people believe that Cisco can still exist, because the entire Western world still needs Cisco.

Otherwise, the entire market will give its hands to companies like Youwei and Huaxin? This is obviously something no one wants to see.

Not to mention that the people who made wrong decisions in the company have already jumped off the building, and Cisco has paid a heavy price, so many people think that it is the best time for Cisco to file for bankruptcy.

However, those who oppose it believe that they can obtain the qualifications to produce genuine turbulence algorithm equipment by compromising with China. If this matter can be resolved within half a month, with the current production capacity of Cisco's global layout, all previous orders can be given to Done, maybe Cisco can be saved.

After all, once it enters the bankruptcy liquidation process, for those board members whose entire net worth is in the company, it basically means that they will lose everything. Judging from the current situation, Cisco is already seriously insolvent, so they are more inclined to compromise with Ningji. As long as they can resume production, they may be able to introduce funds to support strategic development, so at least the stock will not be worthless.

Yes, to put it bluntly, the root cause of this debate is that some directors dare to bet. Taking into account the overall interests, the real big guys dare not let Cisco go bankrupt; If they lose, they will probably have no choice but to jump from the roof.

You must know that Cisco's stock price was doing very well because of its outstanding financial report last year. Every one of these people in the conference room is a theoretical billionaire, but as we all know, most theoretical billionaires are in debt. of.

If the value of these stocks returns to zero, it not only means that these people may become paupers, but may even be saddled with liabilities ranging from hundreds to tens of millions. For such a major shareholder, who dares to take a crazy gamble?

If I lose the bet, I probably have no choice but to jump off a building.

Arguments are inevitable, and even fights are possible.

So Nicholas Harold's words, which were not loud, were collectively ignored. The gentlemen were still debating and arguing, loosening their ties, unbuttoning their suits, and spitting, such as FUCK and Bull shut. The speeches are endless...

"I've said enough, gentlemen, stop arguing!" Nicholas Harold said louder this time, and it finally had some effect.

The noisy sounds finally stopped...

Nicholas Harold glanced at everyone in the conference room expressionlessly, and said directly: "Then, let's vote by a show of hands now..."

“Raise your hands if you are in favor of filing for bankruptcy immediately.”

…

Qualcomm is not far from the Cisco headquarters building.

The board of directors is also being held at this moment.

Compared to the chaos of Cisco's demons, this place is relatively peaceful.

For Qualcomm, pure network equipment production is not their biggest business.

Of course, this incident has also been greatly affected, but it will not reach the point of facing insolvency.

However, if it is not handled well, a lot of lawsuits will be inevitable, and the losses will also be heavy.

Of course, even if it loses the lawsuit, Qualcomm can still find a company that provides ultimate network security to defend its rights again.

But everyone knows that the leather bag company can’t squeeze out any profit at all, and the most valuable patent for the ultimate network security algorithm has become a joke. Not to mention that the company now even has no boss.

No one wants to face huge losses.

Of course, if Ning Zi showed mercy to Qualcomm, this loss could be avoided for Qualcomm.

Both Youwei Group and Huaxin Communications need to use Qualcomm's patents. This also means that as long as Qualcomm is given some time, they can even find a way to obtain a certain batch of customs clearance licenses from these two companies as quickly as possible to solve the pain points of those customers.

Maybe you can even take this opportunity to make a fortune.

It's just Ning Zi's request...

"Actually, I think the most important thing about Boston Dynamics is not the data accumulated by R\u0026D, and some data are actually not that important. We can talk to SoftBank. I believe SoftBank should understand this."

Yes, although Qualcomm has taken a stake in Boston Dynamics, after all, Boston Dynamics has been acquired by SoftBank of Japan. ARM, a subsidiary of SoftBank, is a partner with Qualcomm. Maybe there is a way to make the other party compromise.

Minimizing losses is always their goal.

Not to mention that Boston Dynamics currently does not show extremely strong profitability and is still in the pure investment stage. Even the direction of the legged robot it develops is not necessarily correct.

Although it is indeed a leader in the field of legged robots, the design is complex and the industrial and software levels are extremely high, resulting in high prices and unclear dedicated uses. At least at present, the prospects for commercialization are extremely low.

"Yes, Rishima's exchange has also introduced Cisco's switching equipment. It was just upgraded not long ago. I think they will be more anxious than us."

"Liability for breach of contract is marked at US$80 billion. SoftBank only spent more than US$100 million to acquire Boston Dynamics from Google last year. If SoftBank does not agree, we can even find a way to acquire Boston!"

"Well, since everyone thinks it is feasible, we must put some appropriate pressure on our partners. Neville, leave this matter to you. We can give some of the information we have to the Chinese first. As for an artificial Magnetic Laboratory, okay, I have to call Mr. Cook again. Everyone, take action!" After considering the opinions of most people, CEO Job Gage made a decision.

…

At the same time, Texas.

Neeson Mountbatten walked out of the building behind him with a proud look on his face.

As he expected, although his hands were cuffed and twisted into the building behind him, in the end the person in charge personally sent him out.

He is now the Patriarch of hundreds of thousands of Illuminati believers, and is a guest of the governor. Not to mention that when he sold Nissenwell, it was completely in compliance with local laws, and no one could find out his mistakes.

The most important thing is that he can feel that those people have begun to fear the god behind him.

This is a great start, because perhaps in the future there will be followers of his in the building behind him.

At this time, Nissen Mountbatten's self-confidence had reached its peak.

Especially when he stood on the steps of the building and saw that the entire street was blocked, and the believers could not see the edge at a glance, the feeling that everything was under control made him feel so excited that he almost couldn't control himself.

You must know that a year ago, he was just a small fortune. In the eyes of a group of real big shots, he was like a cockroach who could be manipulated at will. But today he is already the man closest to God in the eyes of hundreds of thousands of believers.

When he saw him walking out of the building, Obote Lelo, who had changed into a robe, came to his side, bowed respectfully and saluted, and handed a trumpet to Nissen Mountbatten's hand.

Yes, as the Patriarch at this time, he must say something.

After taking over the trumpet, Nissen Mountbatten put away his proud mood and his expression became serious and sacred: "I hope you will always remember today and what you saw! Yes, today's victory belongs to you. , and glory to the children of light!”

After saying this, the die-hard stickman suddenly raised his voice: "May the Son of Light protect you forever!"

The slogans began to echo along the street, starting from the nearest believers, and then began to pass backwards until the entire street was filled with everyone's shouts...

"May the Son of Light always protect you!"

The man who escorted Nissen Mountbatten out of the building frowned subconsciously and looked at this scene with disgust, but in the end he didn't say much. At this time, it’s good to be safe. Let’s get over today first...

…

In China, the conversation between Ning Zi and the old man continues.

"The phone call I just answered was actually because of your math report. You gave us a difficult problem. It was a good problem, and it also allowed us to understand how to solve the problem when this advantage is entirely mine. Go deal with those people." The old man explained his point of view with a smile.

Ning Zi nodded and made no comment.

"But to be honest, we don't know the specific situation. Can you give me a general outline?"

Ning Zi thought for a while and said: "The simplest explanation is that those products are now in a superposition state of usability and downtime. Any accident may cause large-scale downtime."

"What about the information stored on the server?"

"I'm not interested in that information."

"Oh why?"

"Because most of the information is actually useless. Compared to the research plan I want to plan?"

"Oh? Tell me, what kind of research do you want to do next?"

"Currently, the most important directions are robotics, heterogeneous general-purpose chips, and controllable nuclear fusion theory and phased research. After the chip laboratory invested by Apple is fully completed, relevant research will be done. I earn from turbulence algorithms The money will be invested in two other research directions."

"Robots, chips and controllable nuclear fusion?"

The old man blinked and probably didn't know what to say for a while.

"Yes, this is the short-term plan."

"Is this just a short-term plan?" the old man asked with a smile, "What about the long-term plan?"

"Land and develop the moon, accumulate experience in extraterrestrial construction and transformation. Then find a way to blow up the rings of Saturn, push the solid water in the rings to Mars, and change the Martian environment. In the process, we will open up a fast route to Mars and study how to adapt to the outside world. space navigation vehicles, and investing in the construction of robots to improve the Martian environment, build cities, and study interstellar immigration. In the process, we are looking for evidence of the theoretical interaction between the universe and civilization... as well as resource stars in the solar system. For the time being, this is probably the only step. I haven’t thought about it further.”

Ning Zi very seriously counted out the things she had to do in the future one by one.

It can be seen that this child is very simple and down-to-earth when considering problems, and has never thought about things outside the solar system.
