Coin Jackpot After Divorce

Artificial Intelligence Lee Soo-rin

First business in San Francisco.

The day the Sourcecoin project opened was bright.

“Myungwoo, how are you?”

“feel so good. It’s the feeling of winning 10 consecutive Ranked Games and landing in gold.”

I went to work together at the company and finished the final inspection with the employees.

A screen was attached to the wall, showing the number of Miners of Source Coin.

[0 miners]

There is a separate management program that tells you detailed resources or usage, but it allows you to see the current status intuitively.

The number of miners will be an approximate measure of box office success.

“How are you feeling?”

Ahead of the start, Seong Ho-jin responded calmly to PD’s question.

“I am struggling with which pizza to eat.”

“Aren’t you nervous?”

“Because this will definitely work.”

11 am.

The time for the final opening of Source Coin has arrived.

A filming team from Korea was filming here and there in the company.

In addition to the three cameramen, the photographers also took pictures with small cameras so as not to miss the current scene.

“Now, everyone… … .”

Pizza and Coke were prepared, and about a hundred employees prepared to shout bravo.

The goal was to exceed 1,000 miners within 3 minutes of starting.

After that, I had a plan to spread my fame by contracting with companies and starting to make minimal sales.

“Hmm. No matter how much you talk about Korea, you don’t know very well.”

Oh Myung-woo was expecting 10,000 people to log in unconditionally with his arms crossed.

As I looked around the coin bulletin board, I was of the same opinion to some extent.

A few days ago, there were already a lot of users asking about mining methods.

“5!”

“4!”

“3!”

“2!”

“One!”

Zero seconds finally reached, and it was 11 o’clock.

The eyes of the staff all turned to the screen hanging on the wall. And at that moment, the number changed on the screen.

[3,621 people mined]

It surpassed 3,000 in 1 second.

“Whoa.”

“Isn’t something wrong?”

“A system error occurred as soon as the service started?”

Employees at Earth Resources were bewildered by the unexpectedly high numbers.

Meanwhile, the number of screens has steadily increased.

[Mining 5,181 people]

[Number of miners: 9,391]

[13,196 people mined]

[17,338 people mined]

[20,560 miners]

The number exceeded 20,000 within 30 seconds.

The programmers hurriedly put down their pizzas and sat down in their chairs.

“What happened.”

“A simple error? hacking?”

I started checking the system by tapping the keyboard, but it was confirmed that it was actually connected to computers around the world.

The data of the pre-determined program was being shared, and calculations were in progress.

“Is this a possible number?”

“The number of miners was real.”

“But more than 95% of the connections are from Korea!”

If there were 20,000 people connected, it could produce the calculation power of a supercomputer.

Just because it’s an expensive supercomputer doesn’t mean it’s good.

As the CPU advances every year, the supercomputers of 20 years ago were inferior to the mobile processors used in mobile phones today.

In 10 years in the world of supercomputers, a performance improvement of about 1,000 times has been achieved.

You have to purchase it at a cost of tens of billions of dollars, build a separate building to install the supercomputer, and pay huge electricity bills.

In just 4 or 5 years, it has become obsolete, and the scrap metal price does not come out properly.

Source Coin uses computing power that surpasses supercomputers without hardware equipment based on distributed processing and high-speed communication technology.

“The IP addresses are similar.”

“There are many computers with the same location. However, the performance is excellent, and the data transfer speed is fast. Is it difficult to understand?”

Programmers were in doubt.

Myungwoo Oh and I knew the answer.

“It’s a PC room.”

“Well. If it is 1 source coin in 2 hours, it is worth mobilizing for mining rather than leaving an empty computer as it is.”

On the first day of opening, it was decided to pay 1 source coin every 2 hours based on personal high-end computers.

A business that earns about 1,150 won in 2 hours if you consider it in dollars.

There is no big merit considering the electricity bill, but it can be better than playing with an empty computer as it is because there are no customers due to the corona.

[50,000 miners]

In just 3 minutes, the mining limit of 50,000 was reached.

The mining limit is temporarily set, and will increase as computer resources are used.

The payment reward of Source Coin will decrease slightly as the number of miners is full.

Although Korea’s share was over 90%, it was rather encouraging that other regions accounted for 10%.

It meant that the whole world was paying attention, albeit little by little.

‘Am I spending $25,000 every hour?’

I have to earn money now, and I have taken the first steps very successfully, though.

“Let’s eat pizza and hamburgers to our heart’s content!”

“Good!”

Morale among Earth Resources employees was high. And I contacted the person who was waiting for me via KakaoTalk.

―Kim Shin: As soon as it is ready, you can start calculating artificial intelligence.

-Lee Ho-yeon: Thank you.

After 30 minutes, BioLife began to utilize the system’s computing power.

Professor Paul Lesser of Johns Hopkins University came to Korea with a staff of 20, composed of his students and infectious disease experts.

The first thing they saw was a huge construction site outside Bio Life.

Prefabricated container houses were piled up, and a research complex was built on the outskirts.

I passed through the cluttered surroundings and entered the research building.

“Hoyeon!”

“Paul, are you here?”

Professor Paul exchanged a light fist fight with Dr. Lee Ho-yeon, who had an emaciated face.

“Your face is speechless. Are you getting some sleep?”

“You are getting enough sleep.”

Looking closely at Dr. Lee Ho-yeon’s face, her eyes were watery as if she had been crying.

It was the first time I saw him since I knew him.

If there was anyone who thought that she wouldn’t cry as if her emotions were dry, it was Lee Ho-yeon.

‘what? Has artificial intelligence failed?’

Professor Paul Lesser had a bad feeling.

Artificial intelligence may have been quite underdeveloped for analysis and prediction even a couple of years ago.

“You have come at a good time. Come follow me.”

Following Dr. Lee Ho-yeon, we passed the culture room and laboratory, and headed to the laboratory.

Artificial intelligence that uses deep learning to analyze the structure of viruses and test compounds that can exert an effect.

Researchers were manipulating something in front of multiple monitors.

I saw the graphs soaring rapidly.

“The artificial intelligence is named Surin.”

“If it’s Surin… … Is it a person’s name?”

“That’s my sister’s name.”

An artificial intelligence named after the sister who died of the disease analyzed the virus of Corona 19 and searched for compounds that could have an effect on it.

“Surin is… … It’s running. I made mistakes sometimes, but I was only getting about 26% of the speed I originally aimed for.”

“Is it?”

“yes. The rest is solved by the power of the computer.”

Connected to Earth Resource’s mining system, 50,000 computing resources were drawn and used.

Surprising computational power surpassing that of a supercomputer was utilized, and all of BioLife’s researchers were ecstatic.

“At this rate, we should be able to find the right compound in three months.”

“We succeeded.”

At that time, Lee Ho-yeon said that he sent KakaoTalk even though he thought it was a group of people.

―Lee Ho-yeon: I have no shame, but could I use a little more computer resources?

―Lee Ho-yeon: I couldn’t create a perfect Surin because I was lacking. Investing more computational resources can speed up finding compounds.

Although it was a desperate wish, I thought it would be difficult to expect a positive ending.

I was already paying a huge hourly fee, and I was just so grateful that they were still providing me with this kind of support.

The answer came quickly.

―Kim Shin: Of course I will. 50,000 is the first test. Soon we will increase the number of miners to 100,000, and then to 500,000.

―Kim Shin: All 500,000 computers will be invested in Bio Life rather than allocated to other companies.

-Lee Ho-yeon: Yes?

―Kim Shin: You have done a great job with artificial intelligence running successfully. From now on, we will destroy COVID-19 with computer technology and money.

“ah… … .”

Tears came out of Lee Ho-yeon.

I tried to do everything on my own while carrying a heavy burden, but there were researchers and reliable supporters who worked hard together with great aspirations.

Han Chae-won sent dozens of text messages.

-Han Chae-won: When I came to Korea, I’m sorry I couldn’t go to the dinner table. We were a little busy, but we wanted to meet each other in a better atmosphere. I heard good news today.

-Han Chae-won: I feel good too. Even though we loved each other… … .

―Han Chae-won: You haven’t forgotten all the memories of that time, have you?

Korea was excited about Kim Shin.

A rich man with a lot of money.

Every time I saw an article about making a lot of money, every time a video of my daily life was uploaded to YouTube, I sent a text message, but there was no reply.

I ended up calling in the middle of the night.

[Could not connect.]

[Could not connect.]

[Could not connect.]

It seemed like it was blocked.

‘Did you block my number?’

Kim Shin said that as he left the company, but I didn’t think I could really block him.

He was a person who endured no matter how much he suffered.

In my relationship with him, I was always on top.

‘I live like this. Being rich and living well alone? When I was very poor with nothing, I lived with you. If you have that much money, you can give tens of billions to your ex-wife, right?’

If I could go back 3 years, I would never have divorced.

If I had known he would succeed like this, I wouldn’t have let go of Kim Shin.

I paid the consultation fee out of resentment and went to the lawyer’s office.

“A lawsuit against Kim Shin? Is this the Kim Shin I know?”

“yes. I am his ex-wife.”

The lawyer smiled at the thought that it was a big deal, but his expression hardened little by little as he talked with Han Chae-won.

“Is Kim Shin domestic violence?”

“There hasn’t been a day that hasn’t hit me every day.”

“Do you have any proof? Did you ever testify to domestic violence at the time of your divorce?”

“I never testified.”

“Recordings, recordings, hospital medical records, or statements of reflection from the person concerned.”

“There is no such thing. I think my colleagues at the company can testify.”

“Did you see Kim Shin use violence?”

“I know because the company told me.”

“A part injured by colleagues. Have you ever shown any bruising on your body?”

“I never had that.”

As a lawyer, there were all kinds of stories when I was in a trial involving a couple.

Ordinary people take on and solve once-in-a-lifetime tasks they’ve never heard of.

The adultery with his sister-in-law is to the extent that he is classified as a popular lawyer only if he takes charge of it once a month.

It was common for wives to falsely accuse their husbands.

“It seems that there is no direct evidence.”

“yes. For now.”

“If I file a complaint, the other party will hire the best law firm in the country.”

“Is it like all courtesy?”

“There may be something like that. If the evidence is weak, even if it actually happened, it will be a really hard fight to win.”

You may have to fight several years of difficult court battles.

The lawyer was looking at Han Chae-won with cold eyes.

Just looking at your clothes, I don’t think you’ll make much money. While fighting in court, I wondered how much I could rip off.

Han Chae-won said desperately.

“Then what about property division?”

“Yes?”

“I want to get a division of property. Kim Shin is incredibly rich.”

“Isn’t it all sorted out when you get a divorce? Even if there is anything left, if three years have passed, the claim is already overdue.”

“ah… … .”

Watching Han Chae-won make a desperate expression, the lawyer shook his head.

I thought it was an incredibly big deal, but it seemed like there was nothing to be saved besides the consultation fee.
