The end of technology.

"...Of course it is limited to the talent of writing codes. After all, Mr. Dou, our Dean Ning's more talent is in scientific research. He often tells us that technology is actually different from science. What can science tell us about technology? I thought, what technology is just a dream. Of course, technology is something that we can make as long as we are willing to do it."

Dou Liaozhen silently looked at Zhuo Mingqian who was opposite him and talked eloquently, and he could probably figure out why this director Zhuo had such a status in the base.

People who really know how to flatter in any era will not suffer.

However, I was more disappointed, not with Zhuo Mingqian, but with Ning Zi.

He originally thought that a young and talented scholar like Ning Zi should be different, at least in terms of human weakness, different from those old men who have already achieved fame.But I didn't expect that such a flatterer would be reused by Ning Zi's side.

It was quite disappointing indeed.

So no matter how much Zhuo Mingqian said, he just smiled.But the bottom of my heart is naturally unconvinced.

For a stubborn technical talent like Dou Liaozhen, once he imprints a certain brand on someone, it is difficult to change his opinion.Wouldn't even care to show it.

And a person like Zhuo Mingqian who knows how to read words and expressions can naturally see the trace of contempt in Dou Liaozhen's eyes that he doesn't even bother to hide. Dang even just smiled and didn't say any more nonsense.

Explanation is unnecessary.

Everyone has their own code of conduct, and Zhuo Mingqian also has it.If someone thinks that he got to the top by flattering, Zhuo Mingqian will only think that person is superficial.

Only those who have really stayed by Ning Zi's side know that this young man is not so easy to be fooled.

This base seems to be very big, but Ning Zi seems to know what happens every day as long as he wants to know.

Thinking about this made Zhuo Mingqian feel shocked.

It was as if there was a pair of hidden eyes helping Ning Zi to watch every move of everyone in the base.Zhuo Mingqian knew this because he was often beaten by Ning Zi, and because he knew this, any decision-making and rules of conduct for him would be strictly in accordance with the rules set by Ning Zi, so he could have the admiration of everyone. status.

If someone knows too much, he will lose ground.Some people know more and will use the known information to make themselves invincible.

Zhuo Mingqian belonged to the latter, he didn't mind being in front of others, and helped Ning Zi bear all the bad reputation and complaints, so that everyone's dissatisfaction was concentrated on him to maintain the rules set by Ning Zi.This is the key reason why he can always be trusted.

As for flattering...

Thinking of Zhuo Mingqian made him feel depressed. If Ning Zi really just liked to be flattered about being fine, then probably he wouldn't be thrown to the countryside for a whole year.

Of course, he didn't bother to explain these things to Dou Liaozhen.

After seeing that this self-esteemed boss was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, he was actually too lazy to talk nonsense with the two of them. After exchanging a few words, he directly began to lead the way.

"You two, I'll take you to the living room first. It's a rare and lively day, and many friends have come. By the way, Mr. Cook is also here, and I asked Mr. Ge just now." Zhuo Mingqian smiled at Ge Dongshu said.

"Tim Cook is here too?"

"Isn't that right? Hey, Dean Ning also attaches great importance to this event. Last month, we began to spread hero posts and invited many people to come. Not only Mr. Cook, but also the CEO of Boston Dynamics." Mr. Robert Platt is also here, and they are all resting in the VIP room."

"What did you invite them for? Is your Dean Ning planning to share the cake again?"

"Haha, I don't know about that. However, Dean Ning said something like this before, saying that we will enter the era of the big universe in the future, and we Chinese people are actually more suitable for being conservative. We just stay in our hometown in the solar system to open up wasteland and farm. Improve the survival resilience of human civilization as a whole; the spirit in the bones of Western civilization is more suitable for pioneering, driving spaceships to explore, and lighting up new maps. The best division of labor and cooperation is the best way for everyone to maintain communication at all times. The pole hits people until they can’t get off the stage.”

Zhuo Mingqian said while leading the way.

Ge Dongshu and Dou Liaozhen, who were following Zhuo Mingqian, looked at each other, and they could not express any objection to this conclusion.

But according to what Ning Zi said, would he still provide spaceships capable of long-distance voyages for those people in the west?
Wait, the premise to be provided seems to be there first.

Speaking of which, after the discovery of negative mass matter, the outside world has been rumored that the base has been developing anti-gravity spacecraft.

It's just that so far I haven't heard where the development progress is.

So Ge Dongshu asked subconsciously: "Then Dean Ning is entertaining those distinguished guests?"

Zhuo Mingqian smiled: "Haha, how is it possible? Dean Ning went to the laboratory early this morning and hasn't come out yet. I guess he won't come out to meet you until the scheduled time. After all, today There must be no flaws in the display. Not only the future commercial operation, but also the mysterious big shots who came to visit today." Zhuo Mingqian said mysteriously.

"How mysterious?" Dou Liaozhen finally couldn't help asking.

"Haha, it's mysterious, of course I can't say it, but the old man has actually entered the laboratory, and he probably plans to go back after watching it, so our Dean Ning has probably already demonstrated it now."

Zhuo Mingqian laughed arrogantly, Dou Liaozhen gave this guy a look, but there was nothing he could do.

However, I think that the important person who can make Ning Zi put down a distinguished guest like Tim Cook in person must have a very high status.

Of course, if the N1 robot can really meet the series of standards set by the previous research and development base, it cannot be overemphasized.After all, it was a product that changed the world.

……

In the huge underground laboratory test base, a robot with silver metallic luster is particularly eye-catching.

The robot is about two and a half meters tall, with a silvery luster all over its body.

It is said to be a humanoid robot, but it is similar in size to a human. The head is square, and the position of the human forehead has a long opening. The limbs are also different from those of humans. This robot has four mechanical Arms, two on each side.

In addition to the two robotic arms at the shoulders like humans, there are also two shorter robotic arms at its waist.The two extra robotic arms also mean that more and more complex engineering tasks can be completed.At this moment, after receiving the order, the robot also moved in an orderly manner.

First, the most basic construction tasks. I saw that the robot first came to the piled materials and began to clean up the messy materials. It only took more than ten minutes, and the stacked various wood and steel bars were cleaned by the robot. It can be described as pleasing to the eye.

"This seems to be the simplest job, but it is actually very difficult to do this. The important thing is the coordination of the body and the dexterity of the joints. These require the cooperation of software and hardware, especially the cooperation of motion algorithms. Except In addition, there is the ability to understand instructions.

For example, tidying up seems to be a simple word, and maybe five-year-old children can understand the meaning of tidying up.But how to organize and to what extent the task is completed is a very subjective concept.Even everyone's concept is different.How to make the robot understand the standard of sorting is a very difficult learning process.

But as you can see now, our robot is very strong in both understanding and motor coordination.Not only can it understand and complete these instructions independently, but if it is given more detailed instructions, such as inputting an architectural drawing, it can even complete more specific construction matters.

Its structure and surface plating are made of special protective materials.It can withstand space radiation, can withstand a temperature difference of two hundred degrees, and the driving layer protected by the core can work continuously for thirteen hours at a low temperature of 200 degrees.If our nuclear power miniaturization technology continues to develop in the future, and it is equipped with a nuclear power supply system, the continuous working time will be calculated on an annual basis. "

Outside the large venue, Ning Zi, who had changed into a white uniform, was introducing the latest achievements of the base to the elderly around him.

Sanyue stood at Ning Zi's feet, her two little cat's eyes widened, and the square-headed robot under the viewers was working tirelessly there.

Facts have proved that after solving the problems of its movement balance, these robots can explode far beyond human working ability.

"Well, yes, yes, so this robot is mainly designed to replace humans in engineering construction? Especially in outer space engineering construction?" The old man nodded and asked.

"On the one hand, the N1 robot is actually a general-purpose robot. What it is used for mainly depends on what kind of tools are equipped with the robotic arms. Its four robotic arms can embed up to 157 different tools, which are artificially used for construction. , it will be the most reliable engineering construction personnel. We have tested that it only took 67 hours and 39 minutes to build a small wooden structure house of about [-] square meters according to the design drawing.

But it is also a mobile scientific research platform that can replace humans to do some high-risk laboratory work.For example, high-risk geological exploration, deep well collection, diving exploration, etc. are all competent.At the same time, it can replace human beings to carry out various experiments in the field of chemical engineering, especially in the field of biochemical ring materials, it is more efficient and accurate to replace human beings to carry out various repetitive experiments.

The base has popularized this N1SDP experimental robot in several key laboratories, and with the assistance of our researchers, we have jointly completed various tasks such as protein synthesis, gene editing, catalyst synthesis, testing, new material preparation, gene sequencing research, etc. Different types of trials.

At the same time, we are already cooperating with the Geological Research Institute of Huaxia Nuclear Industry Group. Exploration robots have been sent to Huaxia No Man’s Land together with their engineers to carry out geological exploration tasks. However, the current feedback data is not enough. Field exploration The homework needs to solve more problems, especially in complex terrain conditions, and the robot's balance algorithm is also more complicated. "

While introducing, Ning Zi turned on the big screen of the viewing platform and began to play the video recording of the operation of the N1 robot as a scientific research platform.In the video, the robot, which is almost the same as the one in front of it, is completing various high-precision experimental work in a laboratory environment.

It must be admitted that the stability of the robotic arm is unmatched by humans.

Especially for various operations that require extremely high precision, captured by multiple high-definition and macro cameras, the test process of these robots is full of beauty.

"Yo, this is really a general-purpose robot! It seems to be able to do anything." The old man looked at the picture recorded in the video, smiled, and commented.

Ning Zi shrugged and said: "It is true in theory, but the adaptation of the supporting algorithm is a big trouble. We specially designed a huge database for the N1 robot to select the adaptive algorithm. The current defect is that each Each switching algorithm involves high-quality data transmission. On the other hand, the collaborative ability of N1 robots still needs to be adapted and cannot be fully automated.”

"what do you mean?"

"The reliability of the robot, especially the safety redundancy design, needs to be optimized and upgraded. Especially if the robot is to be equipped with weapons, the corresponding algorithms must be enriched."

"Hahaha, you mean our N1 robot will appear in military parades in the future?"

"Well, at least for now, if a new engineering force is formed, I think the N1 robot is definitely the best choice. Because there are extremely rich corresponding algorithms in the database. Especially when the Huaxia Nuclear Industry Group Geological Research Institute gives After we have enough feedback data, we will further upgrade its working algorithm in the complex environment in the wild.”

"Oh, what is the output of this robot now?"

"If several industrial groups can reach an agreement as soon as possible, they should be able to achieve the monthly assembly capacity of 1 N[-]-type robots within half a year. However, to further expand production capacity, we need to introduce more partners. At present, the main limitation The output of hundreds of high-precision parts at the joint. However, we still have a simplified version of the design that can be put into the production of high-precision parts. If all goes well, the monthly output is expected to double in one year."

"Oh? Why hasn't an agreement been reached yet?"

Ning Zi glanced at the old man, thought for a while, and explained: "It's mainly because of some supporting problems. Simply put, they all want to follow their own supporting standards. The N1 robot itself has a weak power reserve, which leads to some problems. The problem of battery life, in addition, a series of supporting standardized vehicles are required for the transportation of outer space, and there are ready-made optimization solutions, but if it is mass-produced, although the functions realized are different, the various peripherals must have a unified standard.

Only by determining whose standards are used can the relevant production lines be laid on a large scale, and it may save hundreds of billions of extra profits for the family in the next few years.So everyone is fighting, as the test base, they are all our partners, and we can’t forcefully stipulate who’s to use, let alone directly set a new standard, because that will waste more resources, so we can only wait. Let them come up with a feasible plan. "

"Oh, that's really difficult." The old man nodded, and then asked, "Are there any other troubles?"

"Actually, there are still many troublesome things, but the technical difficulties have almost been overcome. We already have a production line in our base, but it can only satisfy experimental robots for the time being. By the way, you are here, why don't you go and see Look at the development progress of another good thing."

"Is there anything else good?"

"Whether it's a good thing or not, you'll know when you see it." Ning Zi said with a smile.
