Beyblade: You call this a four-wheel drive vehicle?

Chapter 273 Kazami Hayato
After Lin Che finished speaking, all the reporters present looked at the McLaren technical director who had been silent until then.

Under the gaze of everyone, McLaren's technical director displayed Muller's physical data during the game recorded by AI and the physical examination report issued by the team doctor after the game.

"Lin Che is right. Muller was indeed in a very dangerous state at the time. His body and mind could collapse at any time. The consequence would be either death from exhaustion on the spot or lying in bed for the rest of his life. Fortunately, Lin Che and Michael stopped him."

"Isn't it possible for AI to prevent this?" a reporter questioned. "According to the official GPX propaganda, isn't safety always emphasized by CF racing?"

"AI really can't stop this." Lin Che said truthfully, "Here are the physical data of Michael and I after we entered the Zero Realm."

After Lin Che presented the data, the reporters present found that the data provided by Lin Che and Michael were not much different from Muller before he lost control.

"This... why is this happening?" a reporter asked puzzled.

"In the state of Zero Realm, sublimation and collapse are only a thought away." Lin Che said, "and the current AI cannot judge this difference."

"So, are we going to let this kind of danger exist?" another reporter questioned, "This is inconsistent with the safety emphasized by GPX!"

"So, if you want to solve this kind of thing, the best way is to eliminate similar problems from the root. Therefore, I plan to make the training and precautions of the Zero Territory public among GPX riders, and I will design a suitable program to guide all riders who may enter the Zero Territory to explore it correctly."

"This is also the reason why I held this press conference together with Mercedes and McLaren," said Lin Che.

……

After the press conference, Lin Che went back to the hotel, said hello to his teammates, and then boarded a plane to Beijing.

After getting off the plane, Lin Che just went home to rest for a night, and rushed to Lin Technology's AI Technology Research Institute the next day.

When Lin Che arrived at a conference room in the research institute, it was already full of people.

After Lin Che walked into the meeting room, everyone who was originally busy suddenly quieted down.

"Why did they call us here suddenly? Is there something wrong with Silver or Magnum?" After Lin Che sat down, a man on Lin Che's right asked curiously.

"No, it's a problem in other areas." Lin Che said.

"Originally, I thought it would take some time for this problem to occur, but I didn't expect it to happen ahead of time." Lin Che said, "Dr. Kazami, do you remember what I told you about the Zero Domain?"

"So it's about this. So, was the driver of the McLaren team lost in the realm of zero yesterday?" The man who was touched by Lin Che showed an expression of understanding.

"That's right. So, I plan to implant the program I proposed some time ago to guide drivers into the zero zone into the AI. With the correct guidance, many risks in this regard can be reduced."

"After you made this request last time, Ming Yunzheng and I tried it together, but we encountered some problems." Hearing this, Feng Jianguang showed helplessness.

"Really? Then where are the others?" After hearing this, Lin Che glanced around the conference room, but found that the person Feng Jianguang mentioned did not show up.

"I don't know. After the quarrel that day, he didn't come to work the next day. When I went to look for him after get off work, I found that his residence was empty." said Hiroyuki Kazami.

"Fuck! He just ran away like that? The contract he signed with me hasn't expired yet!" Lin Che said in surprise.

"Is it still because of the previous problem?" Lin Che asked.

Feng Jianguang and Ming Yunzheng are both geniuses in the field of artificial intelligence that Lin Che met when he was studying for his doctorate. After they graduated, Lin Che decisively extended an olive branch and accepted them both into Lin Technology.

The AI ​​source code that Lin Che provided to the official GPX was written by the three of them. After Lin Che started racing, the two of them started a project called ASURADA with Lin Che's support.

However, there have always been considerable conflicts between the two of them in terms of philosophy.

Hiroyuki Kazami believes that an AI that continuously learns, grows with drivers, and develops tacit understanding with them will be the best assistant for drivers, but Ming Yunzheng stubbornly believes that these processes are dispensable. AI can easily calculate the optimal solution, and drivers only need to cooperate with AI. In general, one person's philosophy is that AI cooperates with humans, and the other person's philosophy is that humans should adapt to AI. Regarding this issue, Lin Che and the two have been arguing since they first met. However, the AI ​​technology at the time could not achieve any of the situations they mentioned, so after Lin Che joined, this concept was suppressed by Lin Che's issue of innovating technology first.

However, after Silver finished, Lin Che started racing, and the two of them launched the ASURADA project, this conflict of ideas once again came to the fore.

"That's right." Hiroyuki Kazami shook his head helplessly. "Last time, when you brought up the topic of AI guiding drivers into the Zero Domain, he thought that we only needed to set up a set of standard procedures, and under the guidance of AI, qualified drivers could naturally enter this domain. However, I felt that this approach was too aggressive. It would be safer to have an AI that could adjust the guidance plan in real time according to the specific situation of the driver. We had a big argument over this."

"You're right." Lin Che said, "If it's just about bringing the driver into the realm of zero, then his plan is not a problem. However, it can easily put people in the same situation as the kid in McLaren yesterday. After all, not everyone can control that kind of desire."

"Oh, I hope he can figure it out sooner." Hiroyuki Kazami said after sighing.

"So, has the plan you mentioned come to fruition?" Lin Che asked.

"The specific structure is almost done, but it will take some time to adjust some details. Those are your areas of expertise," said Hiroyuki Kazami.

"Okay, then, I'll stay here for a few more days and try to finish this procedure as soon as possible." Lin Che nodded, and then began to arrange the specific work.

……

"It finally succeeded. Now, all we have to do is test it." Hiroyuki Kazami smiled as he looked at the program running normally. "The selection of the testers will have to be left to you. After all, I'm not very familiar with you racers."

"Don't worry about that. We have a ready-made candidate for the test, Ferrari." Lin Che said, "With that guy's qualifications, he should have been able to enter the Zero Realm a long time ago, but he has been a little too lax over the years, so he is a step behind."

"Really? I'm glad you know." Feng Jianguang nodded, then showed a bit of embarrassment, "Also..."

"What's wrong? Not enough funding? I remember that our institute has always had sufficient funding." Lin Che looked at his expression and was also a little curious.

"It's not about this, it's about something personal." Hiroyuki Kazami said, "After hearing that I work for you, my son has been clamoring to meet you."

"Do you know me?" Lin Che was a little puzzled. Feng Jianguang had been in China for several years, but he had never made such a request before.

"My son has recently become fascinated with mini racing..." said Hiroyuki Kazami. Lin Che understood immediately. Although he had retired for a long time, his legend was still circulating in the mini racing world.

"Okay, then how about having dinner together tonight? At my house, and you can pick up your son later?" Lin Che said with a smile.

"Thank you for your help." said Hiroyuki Kazami.

"Hey, I just don't like you Japanese people being so polite." Lin Che said, "Isn't it just that my nephew wants to meet his idol? It's not a big deal."

That night, at Lin Che's own residence in the western suburbs of the capital, Feng Jianguang arrived on time to keep the appointment, and with him was a chubby-looking little boy.

"Dr. Lin, this is my son, Hayato Kazami." Hiroyuki Kazami said, pulling out the little boy who was hiding behind his father because he was a little shy.

"Hayato, say hello to Uncle Lin. Isn't it you who want to see Uncle Lin the most?"

The little boy who was pushed out by his father looked up at Lin Che, then lowered his head shyly, and then said, "Hello, Uncle Lin."

Lin Che was amused when he saw this. It turned out that this future GPX legendary rider was so cute when he was a child.

At the same time, Lin Che also noticed the mini racing car in Hayato's arms. It was a racing car modified based on the Lightspeed War Dragon. After Lin Che retired, the World Mini Racing Association also sold the racing car that Lin Che had used in his career as a limited edition. Lin Che also made a considerable income from this. However, this kind of car only has an appearance, and it certainly does not have the fancy functions of the real War Dragon.

Seeing this, Lin Che also smiled and squatted down in front of the little Hayato.

"Hello, little Hayato, how old are you?"

"Five years old!" said little Hayato.

"Is this your car?" Lin Che pointed at the Lightspeed War Dragon in Hayato's arms and said, "What's its name?"

"It's called Storm Dragon!" When talking about the car, Hayato's eyes were full of pride. This look was exactly the same as those of Lin Che's old friends when they were children. "I modified this myself!"

"Really?" Lin Che said with a smile, "How about a competition?"

"Huh?" Hayato was stunned after hearing this.

Afterwards, Lin Che brought little Hayato to the basement specially reserved by Lin Che. In the basement were stored all the racing cars that Lin Che had used in his mini racing career, as well as all the trophies and medals he had won. The golden gear cup representing the honor of the WGP champion was placed in the most conspicuous place by Lin Che.

At the same time, there is a running track in the basement, which is not easy to run. After retiring, Lin Che would occasionally let his old friends come out to relax and run a few laps, so this track has always been cleaned by someone specially assigned to do so.

After Lin Che took the Lightspeed War Dragon out of the glass cabinet, he said to Hayato, "Come and give it a try. If you win, I can give it to you."

"Really?" Hayato's eyes lit up, but he lowered his head the next second, "I can't win, after all, uncle, you are the world champion."

"How can a racer say such discouraging words that he can't win before even racing!" Lin Che patted Hayato's head, "Go ahead! Let me see the strength of you and your car!"

"Okay!" Hayato cheered up, "I will!"

"That's more like it." Lin Che nodded, "Wait a moment!"

After Lin Che removed the GP chip of the Lightspeed War Dragon, he replaced it with a standard motor and gears. He couldn't really use a super racing car to bully a child, so Hayato also took this time to adjust his own car.

After making all the preparations, the two, one big and one small, placed their cars on the track. Lin Che also turned on the timer. After the countdown ended, the two cars sped out together.

After the two cars started, their speeds were almost the same.

"Not bad." Lin Che's eyes lit up. The speed of little Hayato's car was almost as fast as Xiao Hao's peak speed during his Charge God of War period. He could adjust the speed of the car to such a fast speed at such a young age. This kid's talent was evident.

After entering the curve, the speed of the Storm Dragon did not slow down at all. The curves of this track are very difficult. Rapid continuous serpentine bends, sharp turns after straight-line acceleration, and inclined bends constantly appear in front of the two cars.

However, the Storm Dragon passes through these corners very smoothly, and its skills also have a bit of the shadow of the Rapid Axe.

"Is your strong point racing on curves?" Lin Che said.

"That's right!" Little Hayato laughed, "I have carefully polished every guide wheel of the Storm Dragon, so that it can go faster when it turns!"

"Well done, but I have to get serious about it." Lin Che said, and after the warm-up, the light-speed war dragon also started the light-speed propulsion mode, and its speed increased dramatically in the blink of an eye.

"Is this the real Lightspeed Dragon's thruster?" Hayato's eyes lit up, "It's so fast!"

"Very impressive, isn't it?" Lin Che said with a smile.

"But I won't lose either! Go! Storm Dragon!" Little Hayabusa shouted, and the speed of the Storm Dragon began to increase rapidly, chasing after the Light Speed ​​Dragon. At the same time, Lin Che also saw that behind Little Hayabusa, a young Pegasus spread its tender wings and ran forward vigorously.

"Has the car soul awakened at such a young age?" Lin Che was a little surprised. Although the car soul of little Hayato was immature, Lin Che could clearly feel the potential contained in it.

The lap ended quickly, and the Light Speed ​​War Dragon reached the finish line first, and Lin Che also stopped it.

"It's still a little short." Little Hayato also stopped his car. Not being able to win the game, the child looked a little depressed.

"You did a great job." Lin Che smiled and touched the little Hayato's head. "When I was your age, I wasn't as good as you. This is for you."

Lin Che handed the Lightspeed War Dragon to Hayato, and then said, "However, I hope that you can make your own car in the future. When the time comes, you can return it to me."
