Rebirth 2010: I add some points to be a boss

Chapter 317 Me?Boss, you also want to build a car!

"Mr. Lei, if you don't rush back to the company, let's go upstairs to see Professor Strong's latest achievements?"

Chen Heyu took the initiative to invite, and said with a light smile.

"Can I? Would it be inconvenient?"

Rebs was slightly surprised.

"Everyone is their own person. Could it be that if you take a second look, you can still learn the core technology?"

Chen Heyu patted his shoulder and said with a smile.

"Boss, you are joking."

Rebs waved his hand awkwardly.

Looking back at the beginning, in order to compete with future technologies in the Ai voice system market, he spent a lot of money and manpower to set up the Rice Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, but in the end he didn't even produce a decent result, which really made people blush.

"Why are you standing there? Your kid is leading the way."

Chen Heyu urged Hong Jun on the side, seeing him standing like a wooden stake, he couldn't help kicking him.

"Hey, right now, I thought you knew the way!"

Hong Jun grinned, showing an expression of indifference, and moved his feet erratically, walking in the forefront, acting as a "tour guide" for the R&D center.

Seeing this, Lei Jun couldn't help asking curiously: "Boss, you seem to be very familiar with the R&D engineers in the company."

Rice is considered a subsidiary of Shanhai Capital, so he habitually calls Chen Heyu "Boss"!
"Boss Lei doesn't know something. The boss spent all day in the laboratory developing Xihe EDA software with us. It can be said that the boss made the greatest contribution to the birth of this product."

Hong Jun turned around and explained with a smile.

When Rebus heard this, a look of admiration flashed in his eyes.

In fact, his sensory impressions of Chen Heyu are extremely complicated. At first, he was full of hostility, and then when he encountered an acquisition, he became unwilling and resentful. Finally, with the help of future technology, he became the overlord of smartphone shipments in Dahua District.

The mood at this time is full of gratitude!

After all, Rice Technology is getting closer and closer to the threshold of the world's top [-] companies!
"Boss, Mr. Lei, this building is the research and development base of the brain-computer interface. It has a total of 8 floors. The office space of our project is currently limited to floors 1-3."

Hong Jun said.

This is because the number of engineers in Professor Strong's team is less than 1000, and at least 3000 more people need to be recruited to fill this research and development base.

The success of the non-interventional brain-computer interface allowed Chen Heyu to finally obtain the research qualification of the interventional brain-computer interface technology.

It is natural to be extremely cautious when it comes to high-risk surgical operations.

The personnel and headhunting channels are all working hard to find the world's top talents to join, so as to further promote the progress of brain-computer interface technology.

The required experts and scholars span multiple fields, such as:

Neuroscientists: They have a deep understanding of the structure and function of the brain, can help design and implement brain-computer interface experiments, and interpret brain electrophysiological signals and other neural related data.

Electronics Engineer: Responsible for the design and development of brain-computer interface devices, including biosensors, electrode arrays, signal amplifiers, and stimulation devices.

Computer scientists: develop data acquisition and processing software, write algorithms for signal analysis and pattern recognition, and design user interfaces and interactive systems.

VR technology expert: Mainly develop virtual environment and interactive system, master the application of Moss Ai special effects 3.0, and strengthen the real-time interaction between users and the virtual world.

Experienced surgeons: Interventional brain-computer interfaces require surgery to implant electrodes into specific brain regions, including the surgical path, method and depth of electrode implantation, and safety factors considered during surgery.

"The safety of implanted electrodes is difficult to control. Once drift, wear or failure occurs, it will cause infection, bleeding, inflammation and rejection. I hope to find a new type of material to completely solve this problem."

Chen Heyu said with emotion.

A group of people came to the second floor and walked into a spacious laboratory. An advanced computer workstation was placed in the center of the room, surrounded by multiple display screens and control terminals for various experimental equipment.

On the left is a fully equipped biological sensor and neural signal acquisition area, displaying various sensors, electrode arrays and biological signal amplifiers, used to observe the EEG, MEG and EMG signals of the subjects, and use The fine circuits are connected to a central computer workstation.

On the right, there is an area dedicated to stimulation and feedback.

There are a variety of brain-computer interface devices. Unlike the Moss AI glasses on the market, the devices in the laboratory are all simple engineering versions, with no aesthetics at all.

At the end of the room is a quiet data processing and analysis area.

This area has dedicated workbenches, high performance computers and data storage servers.

Computer experts and data processors use automated algorithmic software to analyze and interpret biosignal data collected from subjects and apply it to the development of brain-computer interface technology.

"Boss, you are here, Hong, you are in charge of the introduction."

Strong came over, holding several new products, which looked very similar to Moss Ai Glasses 1.0, except that the temples were made thicker and wider, as if loaded with sophisticated electronic components.

Chen Heyu reached out to pick up one, and put it on directly. It was obviously a little heavier than 1.0. There was no need to wake up the device, and the screen in front of him instantly activated.

"Boss, we implanted capacitors in the nose pads, which can identify whether the product is worn by someone, eliminating the design of mechanical buttons and voice switches."

Hong Jun said sternly, when it came to work, he immediately restrained his smile and looked serious.

"Do you still have samples? Take a pair and give Mr. Lei a try."

Chen Heyu ordered.

"no problem."

Strong took out another pair of new Ai glasses from the experimental table behind him, and handed it to Rebus.

"Thank you."

Lei Jun took it with a smile. He had used version 1.0, but he didn't know anything about the version 2.0 that hadn't been released yet.

"Boss, Mr. Lei, close your eyes and feel it."

Hong Jun reminded.

Chen Heyu nodded slightly, and then lost all color in his sight, leaving only the lonely and helpless black.

The camera at the front of the lens started to work, converting the scene in front of him into an analog light signal and sending it to his brain.

Gradually, the black slowly dissipated, and the figures of Rebs, Hong Jun, and Strong appeared in his mind.

The clothes on his body could not be seen clearly, and the appearance of his face could not be seen clearly. The surrounding walls were obviously white, but it was light gray when it was fed back to his brain.

The only advantage that can be praised is that all kinds of equipment, equipment, and workbenches have a vague outline.

Chen Heyu tried to walk around, and even though his eyes were closed, he was still able to walk unimpeded in obstacles.

As he gradually became familiar with him, and he was not born blind, he soon established a cognition of colors and objects.

The white smooth area is the wall, which is the test bench; the black area is the people, which are various instruments; the green area is the vegetation; the yellow area is the garbage bin...

He picked up the signature pen on the table, except for the words "unclear" on the label, the general shape, color, and what the object is can still be judged.

When he wants to know the specific content on the label, the camera sends the picture to the chip, converts it into text information, and then converts it into voice information, which is synchronously sent to him through the speaker.

Rebs on the side also had a great time.

ten minutes later.

Chen Heyu took off his glasses, and asked Professor Strong: "Is there any room for improvement? Although blind people can walk normally, the perception deviation of objects and colors is still too large to be the same as that of normal people."

The overall feeling is like a myopic patient with 200-300 degrees, whose perception of the whole world is blurred.

Detailed information can only be improved through text and voice descriptions.

"This is the limitation of the non-invasive brain-computer interface. Unless the sensor technology makes a leap forward, otherwise, bioelectrodes must be implanted to better collect and feed back optical signals."

Professor Strong shook his head, spread his hands and said that there was nothing he could do.

"Boss, in fact, after long-term training, as long as blind people establish a stimulus recognition system, such as associating colors with stimulus signals, and objects with stimulus signals, the use effect can be increased by more than 3 times."

Hong Jun added.

"Put it in the summer new product launch list. Only large-scale commercial application can promote the rapid progress of a technology."

Chen Heyu thought for a while and said.

There are about 4000-5000 million blind people in the world, and the market prospect is very broad!
"Boss, if an ultrasonic motor-driven contact array is added to the screen of the mobile phone, blind people can play smartphones."

Hong Jun said with a smile.

The principle is that when the finger of a blind person touches a certain area on the screen, the voice will tell him that this is a game, Weibo or WeChat app. Combined with Moss Ai glasses and Ai intelligent voice assistant, it can make people Blind people easily operate a smartphone.

"Is Mr. Lei interested? Can I ask the company to provide technical support and cooperate with Rice to produce a smartphone for the blind?"

Chen Heyu turned around and asked Rebus.

"How long will the development cycle take?"

Rebs asked back.

The proportion of blind people in the world is less than 1%. If the development cycle is too long and the research and development funds are too high, it will be a thankless task.

"Most domestic screen panel factories have mastered this technology, and only need to develop a suitable software."

Hong Jun replied.

"Oh, I see."

Lei Jun nodded. Since the cost is not high, launching a customized mobile phone can also reap the favor of users, so why not do it?
The two stayed in the laboratory for a while before leaving the R&D building and walking towards Planet 1 in the central area.

"Boss, compared to this building, the rice headquarters is simply too low."

Rebus admired it again, still with a look of surprise on his face, and flattered him silently.

"The design fee is not cheap, well, let's not talk about it, how is the development of rice in the first half of the year?"

Chen Heyu asked casually.

"The rice 5 has been launched for one month, and domestic sales have exceeded 300 million units, and its overseas performance is also good, especially in Europe, with shipments as high as 180 million units.

I am confident that if I give me another half a year, I will be able to overtake Huayao and become the third largest mobile phone brand in the world. "

Lei Jun said confidently, with a look on his face.

He is very clear that Chen Heyu participates in rice technology's weekly financial meeting and business meeting through video. Naturally, he wants to learn about some new opportunities and changes.

"Is it equipped with Snapdragon 820? Shanhai Microelectronics needs to continue to work hard and come up with a high-quality product as soon as possible."

Chen Heyu said with full expectation.

"The Shanhai M2 chip is excellent in adapting to mid-range mobile phones. I don't think it will be long before Rice can use the domestically-developed high-end chip processor."

Lei Jun said cheerfully.

Chen Heyu forced Rice to purchase Shanhai M1 and Shanhai M2 chips. He was a little resistant at first, but after the market test, the effect was amazing.

After all, the high price of Xiaolong processors purchased by Haotong will lead to weak net profits of rice.

If all the self-developed chips of Shanhai Microelectronics are used, the production cost will be greatly reduced, thereby increasing the group's net profit margin.

"It's still early, go to my office to have a cup of tea first, I came here today, and I didn't even look at it myself."

Chen Heyu suggested.

"my pleasure."

Rebus laughed.

The two walked into the lobby on the first floor side by side, took the elevator to the top floor, and came to a chairman's office of more than 200 square meters.

Desks, bookcases, tea bars, sofas, small conference tables, etc., all kinds of facilities are available.

Chen Heyu glanced at the doorknob hidden behind the bookshelf, and immediately guessed that Zhang Nan had even bought him a bedroom to rest in.

"It's a waste. In the past two years, I have spent less and less time in Yancheng."

He sighed with a smile.

"What kind of tea does the boss want to drink? I'll make it."

Lei Jun came to the tea bar familiarly and asked attentively.

"Huang Ya, be lighter."

Chen Heyu went to the sofa and sat down, took out his mobile phone, checked the new news, turned to a few cool pictures, and smiled knowingly.

"Don't make trouble, go back to Shanghai in a few days."

Send a short message.

"Boss, you said that future mobile phones will still exist?"

Lei Jun was holding a tea tray, put it on the tea table, sat opposite Chen Heyu and asked.

The Moss Ai glasses have given him a great impact. Perhaps with the advancement of brain-computer interfaces in the future, human beings can realize global barrier-free communication as long as they use biochips to connect to satellite networks.

"It's not that easy! The kind you mentioned can only exist in science fiction movies."

Chen Heyu denied that before he was reborn in his last life, he had never seen such a surreal technology.

"Haha, think boldly."

Lei Jun laughed, changed the subject, and chatted about interesting things in the circle.

"...Wang Xin's shared financial platform is developing well. Last time I met him, he wanted my foundation to invest, but I didn't agree on the spot."

Lei Jun said with a smile.

"Why didn't you agree? Don't worry about me."

Chen Heyu smiled.

What industry does not do, but to do shared finance, Lao Wang, he was frustrated and confused by him.

"Sharing mode, I don't think there is a chance at all."

Lei Jun said firmly.

"Oh? Talk about it."

Chen Heyu picked up the teapot, poured two cups of fragrant tea, and asked slowly.

"Because of you, Mr. Chen! None of the family voted!"

Lei Jun speaks concisely and to the point.

"Are you using me as a guiding light?"

Chen Heyu said angrily.

"Haha, no one in the circle knows the boss's investment talent, it's just that I observe it more carefully."

Lei Jun spoke sincerely.

In fact, it was not that he was not tempted, but had investigated it in private.

Good guy!
What a f*cking fake loan contract!

How can there be so many borrowers? It is nothing more than a left-handed game. According to the development trajectory, this model will completely collapse in less than a year.

"I don't want to step on this kind of thunder."

Chen Heyu said in a deep voice.

Lei Jun was silent, he didn't foolishly ask why Chen Heyu didn't warn the top management and remind those "poor people" who invested in the platform.

Sometimes, this group of people will not wake up until they reach a desperate situation.

"Doesn't Mr. Jia from Lelisi want Shanhai Capital to invest in Faraday?"

Lei Jun paused and asked.

"What do you think?"

Chen Heyu couldn't deny it, and said with a smile.

"This man is full of words and is not trustworthy."

Lei Jun commented.

He knew Jia Ting's character very well. He said what he said was three parts true and seven parts false. He invested money in Lelisi's car-making plan, and most likely it would be in vain.

Therefore, he intentionally brought up this topic and wanted to remind Chen Heyu.

"No personal grievances involved?"

Chen Heyu joked.

"Including personal grievances, I'm even less optimistic about him. A person who doesn't even bother to design a mobile phone can be expected to build a car?"

Lei Jun said disdainfully.

Lelisi's super mobile phone sold 1000 million units in the first half of the year, making a sudden loss. For a domestic mobile phone manufacturer that has been established for less than two years, this is a terrifying figure.

If you want to lose money, no one will stop you!
But Jobs's Lelis mobile phone, in terms of UI and appearance of the mobile phone, even the shape of the screw is designed according to the design of rice, directly plagiarized, he was naturally annoyed, and even called names on Weibo.

"Don't worry, if I have money, I will also vote for rice. I will be more confident if you are in charge of building the car."

Chen Heyu said leisurely.

"Me? Boss, you also want to build a car!"

Lei Jun was puzzled.
