The end of technology.

When Ning Zi asked this question, the office fell into an embarrassing silence.

In fact, the answer is undoubtedly yes, but Tim Cook obviously does not want Ning Zi to go his own way.Although the conflict between the two parties seems irreconcilable at present, there is still an extravagant hope that someone can take a step back before something irreversible happens.

It's just that Tim Cook hasn't figured out how to word it yet.

After all, this time Apple is also in the middle of a whirlpool.

So Ning Zi, who had obviously thought about it, said again: "Actually, I know that there is an insurmountable generation gap between us, so it is difficult for us to empathize. Our family used to be very poor, um, we can even use poverty to make up for it." Describe. So for a long time, I didn't know how to look at the problem from a macro perspective, and I liked to take the path of happiness and hatred.

But at the current position, I have learned a lot, and gradually, under the persuasion of many people, I try to look down on the problem from a high place.But the previous experience made my vision narrow, so my perception of the world is still very confused.So even now I still like to use the simplest and most direct way to solve problems.

For example, I always believe that for the vast majority of ordinary people, if they want to live a better life, all personal efforts are actually nothingness, and they actually rely on two points, one is technological progress, and the other is social production relations. progress.The former increases productivity, which is enough to ensure that the basic life of most people is getting better and better; the latter can make the way of exploitation more hidden, and make people feel more spiritually happy.

Moreover, these two points are complementary, and the progress of productivity can promote the progress of social production relations.Google's engineers can enjoy a strong cup of coffee during afternoon tea, and spend millions of dollars in annual salary thanks to the emergence of the Internet.Similarly, the emergence of the Internet has brought subversive changes to the effect of media communication and broadened the way for ordinary people to receive information, thereby changing the logic of life.

Now is the era of artificial intelligence. It just so happens that the key to the core technology is in my hands, or in this base.This is my confidence. The N1 robot and the upcoming anti-gravity spaceship represent a complete change in the operation logic of the future world. At least for now, this logic is in my hands, and this is my confidence.

It just so happens that I am only 23 years old this year according to the official calculation, and I am still very young, very young, so please help me with a very second sentence: If you don’t accept it, let’s fight!I like to be lively, and I like watching blood flow into rivers the most.Well, this question is over, you can talk about your purpose. "

……

Tim Cook stretches a little.

When he watched Ning Zi say "If you don't accept it, let's fight" in a flat tone, he knew that he had no part to persuade him today.

It is no exaggeration to say that Ning Zi has criminal records, and many of them.

This young man really doesn't care about the blood flowing in rivers.

The tragedy caused by the Turbulent Algorithm is still vivid in my mind, followed by the chain reaction of the entire virtual currency market, which caused chaos in places that many people did not see, and it has not even fully recovered until now.

He couldn't forget the scene he saw in the manor of Auberge du Pont that day.

When countless lightning falls from the sky around you, the experience of rolling thunder seems to be exploding in the ear, which is enough to make people fear the world.

Although Ning Zi did not admit that he did it.

But some things don't need to be admitted, everyone knows that he did it.This young man is crazy.

After careful consideration for a long time, Tim Cook decided not to consider these issues.

Ning Zi said that he just needs to bring a message, so he only needs to bring a message.In fact, this is a good thing for Apple. Being able to hear this decision from Ning Zi in advance is worth hundreds of billions to Apple.

But he still had to say what had to be said.

As for whether the other party listens or not, that is not his concern.

After hesitating for a long time, the big man who has been at the helm of Universe No. [-] Company for several years said carefully, "Ning, there is no need to be so fierce. Of course I believe that you and your base have this ability, but this world is not a hundred years old. That world is gone. In the face of technology, it has never been as vulnerable as it is today. As you said, we can resolve everything peacefully, in fact..."

Ning Zi looked at Tim Cook and smiled...

"Haha, Tim, you don't know what technology is at all, and I even suspect that you can't distinguish the boundary between science and technology. Come, let me explain to you..."

Speaking of Ning Zi, he stood up and walked to the window on the second floor. Tim Cook was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly followed Ning Zi and stood beside him.

Standing in front of the window, Ning Zi pointed out the window and asked, "What did you see?"

Tim Cook looked in the direction of Ning Zi's finger, well, it was actually a large lawn opposite the small building.

The ground part of the research base is mainly located in the Space Academy and the ten large test buildings. There are not many buildings on the surface deep in the base, and they are all small buildings distributed in the shade of trees.The main tests are all done underground.

For many high-precision instruments, it is also more suitable for working underground.Because very small vibrations may cause errors.

Therefore, the green coverage rate of the ground is very high. In other words, there are many lawns in this area.

Tim Cook had seen more than a dozen similar lawns before coming here. At least in his opinion, the lawn outside the window was no different from what he saw when he came.

"A piece of lawn...or can it be converted into a football field?" Tim Cook, who really didn't see anything special, replied uncertainly.

Ning Zi glanced at Tim Cook with a smile, nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, it can indeed be converted into a football field, but it may also be a take-off platform."

After finishing speaking, Ning Zi said casually: "Open the No. [-] launch base."

As Ning Zi's voice fell, Tim Cook saw a scene that he probably would never forget in his life. The middle part of the previous green lawn suddenly began to rise, and then split from the middle, facing east and west. The direction begins to shift until it reveals what appears to be a boat-like craft hidden under the lawn.

The reason why it is called an aircraft is because this thing is obviously suspended, and there are many people working there under it. From his current angle, he can even see the engineers in the base looking up into space.

Before Tim Cook came back to his senses, Ning Zi said again: "Please evacuate the staff, Dragon One, ready to start, lift ten meters into the air, take the left air passage, and go to my office in Building [-] Here."

Following Ning Zi's random order, Tim Cook saw the engineering staff below start to move in an orderly manner. Everyone retreated beyond the red line below, and then Tim Cook saw that the ship began to slow down. It rose slowly until it was at the level of his line of sight, and then continued to rise a little bit, and then the position of the bow slowly turned, towards the small building where he and Ning Zi were.

A huge sense of oppression struck instantly.

It doesn't feel like a long-distance view, but when the aircraft is heading towards the small building, you can feel how huge it is.

Tim Cook unconsciously lowered his breath until the ship covered the sun and stopped in the air less than one meter away from the small building.

At this moment, he could no longer see the whole picture of the aircraft, he could only look up at its huge silvery belly...

"Long Xing series anti-gravity spaceship, this is the first generation prototype, um, basically we built it for fun, it has no function, it can fly and transport things. But the material of this thing is not easy to control, because Another characteristic of negative mass matter is that it can filter and absorb electromagnetic waves. Really, if it is mixed in the clouds to turn off the transponder, we can't find it ourselves. So it can't even be put into the civilian field.

In order to make its safety factor higher, at least in the case of a problem with the transponder, it can still be recognized by the air command system, we have to change the material of the airframe.However, this unexpected discovery gave our aerospace aircraft carrier an extra layer of protection.Speaking of aerospace aircraft carriers, Mr. Xu who visited the N1 robot with you today should have almost built it in the base.

The reason why he came to watch the performance of our N1 robot is that the cooperation of the robot is needed when the aerospace aircraft carrier goes to the sky.After all, normal people can't work normally at an altitude of [-] to [-] meters without protection, but robots just can.Our people only need to remotely manage these robots in the tower of the aircraft carrier, and then they can command the aircraft in the hangar to take off and land.

Well, there are some small stories in it. Originally, we also designed to open the throughput device under the aerospace carrier, drop the aircraft directly, and then start it in the air, but this is too demanding for the pilot, so the first aerospace carrier In the end, I chose to cooperate with the robot to take off and land on the deck, which is simpler.

However, we still haven't given up the dumpling-style startup method, but it is for specially designed drones.Probably the next generation of aerospace aircraft carriers will use it.We are still considering how to incorporate negative mass materials into the N1 robot. In this case, we are equivalent to giving the N1 robot more ways to play.

So, what you see now is serious technology.As for this dragon series prototype, we plan to use waste, make some modifications to its main part, so that it can easily adapt to the outer space, and then be responsible for cleaning up the space junk that wraps the earth.Of course, this will be a fee-based service in the future. At that time, all countries and institutions with space navigation should pay, isn't it too much?
We have calculated that this extremely simple-to-manufacture Dragon Series spaceship needs about [-] ships, and can clean up the sky garbage that wraps the earth within two years.At the same time, the Longxing series of spacecraft can also undertake the business of space tourism, watch the International Space Station, satellites, and even touch the James Webb telescope.

In addition, we are still developing the Fengming series of civilian anti-gravity aircraft.This is an anti-gravity aircraft with a higher safety factor. After all, it is more convenient to take off and land, and it will not even be affected by extreme weather and the wake of large aircraft. Its stability and some special physical characteristics allow them to shuttle unscathed in the storm.

We can even install lasers on the fuselage to artificially attract lightning, creating a visual feast for the passengers on board to attract thunder in the clouds.See, this is the power of technology.But in fact, what you see and hear now is not the point.Not even a high level of threat to you.What's really scary is what you can't see! "

Hearing Ning Zi's last words, Tim Cook, who was so shocked that he didn't know what to say, asked subconsciously, "What can't you see?"

Ning Zi picked up the kitten lying on the ground as if invisible and yawning boredly with one hand, then held up the kitten and shook it in front of the inexplicable Tim Cook before replying with a smile: "It's artificial." Intelligence! You still don't know what kind of artificial intelligence exists, and you don't even know what is happening now. Even if it is a top-secret network.

Believe it or not, C5ISR is a joke in my opinion. Is HAIPE device communication really so efficient and safe?Even if the three systems are completely isolated from each other on the hardware, can the communication be completely confidential?You may not believe it, as long as there is a step of network key exchange, all encryption in front of artificial intelligence is a joke.So know what their biggest mistake was? "

Tim Cook took a deep breath, looked out the window at the toy that made him unable to speak, and asked cooperatively: "What is it?"

Ning Zi looked at Cook, hugged the kitten, and said seriously: "That year when the Mathematicians Conference was in Rio, I shouldn't be allowed to return to China alive. It's too late now, and it's useless even if I die. No matter you Believe it or not, everything has been arranged. The world will operate according to the program that has been designed, and no opposition of any kind will be accepted. Abandoning the petty profits in front of you and looking to resources beyond the earth is the only way out , any decision that goes against this process will be—pressed to death.”

Silence, still silence.

Ning Zi didn't say anything more, just waved his hand, and after a while, the huge hull outside the window moved again, first retreated slowly, then rose a bit, then turned around again, and returned to the previous base , and then began to descend.

After being stably suspended in the ground, the lawn moved again, raised, and then closed.

When everything returned to calm, Tim Cook saw that only then did the staff in the base begin to trim the joints of the lawn. Soon, everything returned to its original appearance, as if nothing had happened just now.

"If necessary, you can ask Director Zhuo for some videos of the daily experiments in the base when you go back. As I said just now, there are actually no secrets here. You can't touch the real secrets. And don't play tricks anymore. , Youwei Group and us are just the simplest technical cooperation, what you can't see, they can't touch."
