Hammer of Technology

So most of this money is the result of zero-sum or even negative-sum games.

After all, March doesn't have the patience to earn so-called shareholder dividends, nor will it hold a large number of certain stocks for a long time.Especially the futures market, in Ning Wei’s view, is an absolute negative-sum game. After all, if there are buyers in futures trading, there must be corresponding sellers. However, no matter how the market changes, when there are handling fees and various taxes and fees, both parties The sum of profit and loss must be less than zero.

It's a proper negative-sum game, so every penny earned in March is the flesh cut from others.

So with the money contributed by unknown good people to do things that can promote scientific progress, Ning Wei felt that he must have made money, just like Edwin George and Abel at this time also felt that they could make a lot of money... …

Using the gains in the negative-sum game to promote a win-win situation, in Ning Wei’s opinion, he won twice, CERN won once, and those who lost money only lost once, which is a proper positive feedback... …

Of course, being willing to ask for a high price directly also comes from Yu Ningwei’s rare experience of going abroad to attend conferences, especially the experience of staying in foreign hotels. As long as the tip is enough, the service attitude is also different.If the cooperation with CERN is successful this time, he plans to take Jiang to go there.

Student Jiang has no experience of going abroad, so it would be beneficial to take a walk around and have a look. It would be nice to give some more money and let his woman enjoy VIP services everywhere.

447 Ultra High Efficiency

The lively Olympic Games ushered in the closing ceremony.

Worldwide events have attracted the attention of countless people around the world, and left a deep impression on countless people, whether it is the opening ceremony or the closing ceremony.The game also caused a lot of controversy as in previous games, but these are all expected.

However, in the eyes of Chinese people, the fairness of the referees in this Olympic Games is commendable.After all, Huaxia's achievements in the Olympic Games this year, whether it is the number of gold medals or the number of medals, have reached new highs, especially the breakthroughs in some non-advantageous events have brought many surprises to many audiences who are concerned about the Olympics.Of course, there are also regrets for many people. For example, even though the referees are very good and the hosts have the advantage, the performance of the Huaxia men's football team is still as stable as before...

It is the women's football team that once again surprised the Chinese.

During the lively Olympic Games, many people ignored a lot of news.

For example, an aviation base in Huaxia was still working diligently during the Olympics, and launched two satellites into the sky. For example, the expansion design of the multi-chamber section of Huaxia Space Station came in handy. During the Olympics, a new cabin section was welcomed and successfully docked.

This cabin named "Wu Gang" is claimed to be a new scientific experiment cabin. Of course, Huaxia is not obliged to announce the specific experiments. You can use your own imagination to make guesses.

However, it is said that the newly launched cabin is of the [-]-ton class, while most of the other experimental cabins are of the [-]-ton class.

CNN reposted the calculation results of an expert on Facebook. Driven by more than [-] tons of fuel, it is enough for the space station to realize a strange idea of ​​helping every smoker proposed by a Chinese academician in a certain video. Yes, but this article was quickly taken down.

Fortunately, during that time period, most of everyone's attention was still on the lively Olympic Games, and not many people paid attention to this article.As we all know, in fact, popular science articles are not very popular on software such as Facebook and Twitter, unless the media can give this article a horrifying title, and then excerpt some arguments from the article to prove the title Really scary...

Facts have proved that the traffic that this method of operation can obtain is huge.

But probably during the Olympic Games, CNN felt that it should give face to the IOC and felt that it could not steal the traffic of the Olympic Games, so it took the initiative to withdraw the article. After all, as a foreign media, CNN will not inform Huaxia what they think, Huaxia It is estimated that no one would be so distressed as to ask a question.

Anyway, the world is still that world.

Apart from these things other than the Olympics, there are still surprises in this Olympics itself.

For example, the March Intelligent System was introduced to fully intervene in the game monitoring and playback system, allowing the whole world to witness the intelligence of March.In any game, when the referee needs to watch the video of the game to determine whether there is a foul, he only needs to pause and then walk to the screen, the system will automatically find the controversial part, and then play it repeatedly from multiple angles with the help of multiple cameras. What happened in an instant.

Especially for this Olympic Games, the photography equipment of all photographers is specially prepared, and it is also connected to the March intelligent system, which allows the referees to obtain more accurate information, and even some actions that are very obvious whether there is a foul, March It can also give its own suggestions directly on the screen according to the rules of the game it understands. Of course, whether the referee adopts it is the referee's business.

But the fact is that for all the events of this Olympic Games, including various collective ball games, 428 penalty suggestions were given through this system in March, and 427 of them were adopted by the on-site referees, with an acceptance rate of 99.77%. .

After all, this is a very new topic, and it has been widely discussed by many viewers. Therefore, when there is a dispute, most of the TV stations in the world that have the right to broadcast will cut the live broadcast footage to the suggestion given by the March intelligent system to the referee.

The only time it was not adopted was in a football match, probably because the referee felt that a certain team had already lost badly anyway, and there was no need to give a very threatening frontcourt free kick to the winner who had already won three goals. Ball, after all, as an on-site referee, still has to give the host country a little face.Anyway, this ball that can be judged or not has not caused any controversy.

This operation can be regarded as showing March's face in front of people all over the world, and it has once again proved that Huaxia artificial intelligence is an era ahead of the world. It can not only understand natural language, communicate without barriers, but also understand rules. very powerful.

Of course, it's not just understanding the rules that makes March show up.

After the closing ceremony, the chief director of the Olympic Games, Chen Yanwen, was interviewed by the official media and talked about the story behind the opening ceremony.Because Ning Wei didn't want Chen Jianwen to mention his name in the interview, the director focused on thanking Zhang Dingxi and March when introducing his ideas, especially how to combine elements of space and technology.

Thanks to the former, of course, because after staying up for several nights, the suspended [-]D display plan was finally decided, and the production company was rushed to complete the work, which made the Olympic opening ceremony more exciting; as for the thanks to March, the director revealed that the whole The ignition process is completely controlled by this manual system.

This is an official certification of the capabilities of the huge March computing platform.

As a result, the talk show, which was supposed to arouse repercussions in the entertainment industry, directly shocked the entire academic and technological circles.

Many technology companies have begun to re-evaluate the role of the March Intelligent Computing Platform in promoting technological development, which has also attracted more well-known universities around the world.After the broadcast of this episode of interviews, some Ivy League universities in the United States have already applied to the International Mathematics Research Center of Yanbei University, hoping to connect to the March Intelligent Computing Platform for some data analysis.

However, at present, most of the applications submitted are marginal projects in the theoretical field.

Of course, this is also understandable. Everyone is still a little worried about data security, especially some large-scale projects invested by funders.Connecting to the system for calculation means that laboratory data can be obtained at will. For some important or economically beneficial projects, it is obviously not reassuring to sign a privacy agreement.

Not to mention that the first article of the privacy agreement provided by March stipulates that the laboratory data will be incorporated into the March database. Although it will not be directly shared with member units, March can use these data to provide mathematical modeling for all member units A series of services such as reasonable advice.

However, regarding the fact that there are no key project applications, the March Journal Committee, which is responsible for receiving these applications, has an indifferent attitude.

Yong Ningwei's suggestion is that, anyway, as long as the application letter is written with sincerity and is willing to access the platform, instead of giving some data analysis like squeezing toothpaste, then agree.The high-sounding reason is that for the well-being of the people of the world, it is necessary to share intelligent computing power, but in private, everyone knows that Ning Wei is not such a generous person, mainly through these theoretical researches to expand the March database.

Maybe these data can be used in the projects of my own laboratory, which can save a lot of detours and save a lot of money and time.

From this point, it can be seen that the concerns of many foreign universities and key laboratories are not unreasonable.Their general judgment on Ning Wei was actually correct.But in Ning Wei's view, this is a normal thing.

It costs money to build so many supercomputing centers and computer rooms for March, but currently providing computing power services to these foreign friends is free.We all know that there is no such thing as a free lunch, and the extended point of view is that free and useful things are often the most expensive.

However, Ning Wei did not feel that the March Smart Platform must be promoted. In fact, various universities in Huaxia and the laboratories of the Chinese Academy of Sciences can provide a lot of experimental data every year. How should I put it? Much to Ning Wei's surprise.At this time, the advantage of a large number of people is reflected. God knows that graduate students and doctoral students are soaking in the laboratory every day to output various data.

This even made Ning Wei start to believe in a popular joke in the academic circle.

It is said that there is a synthetic coating material abroad, which is very expensive to sell to Huaxia, so Huaxia decided to develop it by itself, and the specific tasks were assigned to several qualified laboratories.When foreign companies knew that Huaxia was going to do this, they laughed proudly. It is impossible for Huaxia to produce similar coating materials within ten years.

However, the final result is that in less than half a year, similar materials have been developed in China.In an interview, a relevant laboratory staff gave an explanation very calmly.

That's right, the composition of this synthetic coating material is very complicated, but with so many elements, we use the method of permutation and combination, and use 0.5% as the gear ratio to carry out the synthesis ratio in the laboratory. All participants in the project The laboratories cooperated with each other. In five months, everyone worked overtime and conducted more than 8000 tests, and then successfully found a formula with the same performance, which broke the foreign monopoly.

This is probably a miracle with great efforts, and a simple manual brute force cracking. Of course, this also explains from the side the current living environment of Huaxia Materials Science and Biology majors.

Of course, now with the March intelligent system, the member units connected can greatly reduce such repetitive tests, which can not only reduce the loss of materials, but also save the time of countless scientific researchers.

But for Ning Wei, these things are actually floating clouds.

I specifically told Chen Yanwen not to mention him in the interview, which has already explained Ningwei's mentality now, he really doesn't want to make trouble.People probably only have fantasies about becoming famous when they are not famous.Now Ning Wei just thinks that it is good to live a peaceful life.No matter how peaceful your mind is, being nagged about by people every day will make you feel tired.

But recently Ning Wei is very happy.

Because CERN approved his request to rent those high-energy physics equipment for experiments almost at the speed of light.The only problem is that before connecting to the March system to collect data, he needs to go through a data security review. He needs to come forward to accept some questions or inquiries. Of course, this inquiry can be done remotely.

For this reason, Edwin George also called him specifically and explained to him for about half an hour why this link was set up.Although it took a long time, it probably meant that the safety inquiry meeting was just a formality. He had already arranged the specific process and passed the approval.Ning Wei can pass the test as long as he doesn't talk nonsense and gives guarantees when he is questioned.

How should I put it, this phone call is like passing the retest line for the postgraduate entrance examination. The tutor takes the initiative to call and tell you what questions will be asked in the retest, and how should you answer to satisfy everyone. Of course, even if you talk nonsense, I will do my best Make sure you get ashore.

At the same time, this statement once again made Ning Wei feel that his billion dollars was too worthwhile.Stimulated by money, a large and bloated scientific research unit not only showed super high efficiency, but also allowed the director of this institution to help him complete his conception as a servant.

I won't be able to...

This also proves once again that money is indeed a good thing, and anyone who says money is not a good thing is not a good thing.

Of course, Ningwei paid a price for being so cooperative. For example, the 2.5 million U.S. dollars in advance deposit has been deposited into the designated account according to the request of a man named Abel.Of this, $5000 million went to an account at CERN, and the other $[-] million went to a lab account Ning Wei had never heard of.

After so many years, Ning Wei finally enjoyed the fun of throwing money.

Facts have also proved that Edwin George did not deceive him. The so-called remote interrogation is only a few trivial questions, such as asking him to verbally promise that he will not guarantee that he will not use this access data collection to illegally collect CERN history. The accumulated test data.

Ning Wei, of course, flatly denied this attempt, saying that his study of physics is just for fun, and he has no interest in the data accumulated by CERN for more than ten years. Of course, he would not think about stealing it, and then he praised CERN a few words The achievements made in high-energy physics in recent years, such as 90.00% of the papers on high-energy physics in the world every year, are sent from CERN...

So the other party believed his words.

Of course, this is not the truth. Ning Wei still really wants the data that CERN has accumulated over the years.Although some data can be found from the papers, most of the laboratory data are still on their hard drives.

If you have these data, you may be able to analyze many things in March...

What made Ningwei even more happy was that he saw his passport again.

Seriously, haven't seen this thing in years...

Looking at his only three trips abroad in his passport, he has mixed feelings.

When I traveled to Thailand, I felt that I was either in the car or on the road every day. The other two times I remember only the content of the activities in the hotel. This country is really lonely.

Of course, what made him even more happy was that this time he was able to walk with classmate Jiang instead of the slightly puzzled Senior Brother Yu.

It can be said that winning is numb!

448 The underlying logic of worship

Ning Wei still remembers the first time he went abroad to participate in a high-end computer conference, queuing up to apply for a visa gave him a bad feeling. For this reason, he also made a wish to Yu Xingwei to make China a world science and technology center in the future, so that foreign Those bigwigs in science and technology honestly go to the Chinese embassy or consulate to queue up for visas.

But this time he found that maybe his thinking at the time was biased, because this time he didn't go in line at all, and the visa was processed.Even the last chapter was specially sent by the embassy to Yanbei University to help him and classmate Jiang cover it...

Although the headquarters of CERN is on the border between Switzerland and France, fortunately both countries are Schengen countries, so Ning Wei and Jiang only applied for a visit visa to Switzerland.

Yes, after a period of coordination and consideration, Ning Wei still decided to go to Switzerland to personally preside over the entire experiment process.In any case, it cost a billion dollars, and I still feel relieved by watching it myself.

For this reason, Liu Wei has been quite busy during this period. After all, he is the first person responsible for the safety of this trip. He has to formulate various travel safety plans, determine the members of the security team, and contact the embassy of the target country. Communicate well and formulate various safety plans.

After all, this time he was going to someone else's territory, and Ning Wei's current identity was very sensitive, so the security work had to be done meticulously, or in all aspects.Ning Wei felt a little dumbfounded when he saw it.

"No, Brother Liu, I can understand everything else, but what the hell is it that Jiang and I have to take two separate flights? More than ten hours..."

Liu Wei replied with an unchanged expression: "This is also just in case. You have also seen that in order to ensure the absolute safety of this trip, a total of three special planes have been arranged and the routes have been applied for. Let's talk about the speed of the special plane. Soon, it will be there in 12 hours, you are also old couples, you can't bear not seeing each other for 12 hours, right?"

Ning Wei frowned: "It's really necessary."

Liu Wei nodded and said: "This is also for Ning Ke's consideration. Considering your temperament of attracting hatred, if there is any problem, at least her mother is still there. But don't worry, I will take the same plane as you. Don't worry, The crew members of the three planes are not only excellent pilots, but also have a wealth of skydiving experience, in case of an emergency, they can guarantee the safety of you and Xiaojiang to the greatest extent."

Hearing this answer, Ning Wei lost his temper completely.This is probably the distress of being a celebrity.

Although I still feel that Liu Wei is a little overwhelmed, it would be a bit selfish if I still object, so let's separate, safety first, at least there is nothing wrong with thinking that the entire army will not be wiped out...

"Well, can you arrange a few more scenic spots to visit? Student Jiang hasn't been abroad yet, so I still want to take this opportunity to show her around."

"This shouldn't be a big problem. You can go and make a decision based on the schedule. In fact, you have to understand that in order to ensure nothing goes wrong, the safety preparations we discussed have designed enough safety redundancy to ensure that proper adjustments to the itinerary will not occur. For any security issues, please trust our expertise in this regard.”

This sentence convinced Ning Wei.

Indeed, you have to trust the professional.

……

The confirmed itinerary was set for September [-]rd, the day when the freshmen of Yanbei University finished their military training and officially started their classes.

Whether it is intentional to delay until this time, the main thing is the beginning of the new semester, there will always be more things. The class of 2028 has welcomed 26 new students. Although the interview is in advance, as the spiritual belief and signboard of the class, even if the school is no longer arranging for Ning Wei to take classes in the undergraduate stage of the class, it still needs to talk to the freshmen. Let's meet each other and let's beat the chicken blood by the way.

Yes, there are fewer and fewer students enrolled in Ningban now.Although it is said that there are talents from Jiang’s previous generation, the enrollment of the Ning class has been too ruthless in recent years. Many freshmen who showed high talent and learning ability in the first and second stages of high school have been squeezed away early, so now the enrollment is also very high. It's getting harder and harder.In addition, Ningwei wants to maintain standards, mainly to avoid recruiting people, and after discovering that there are some things that he can't learn at all, he doubts his IQ, so there are only 26 people left in Ning's class this year.

Moreover, the Ningban is different from other leading programs, and it does not fully guarantee the guarantee of graduate studies. There are not many tutors who are qualified to lead graduate students in this direction, so the students in the Ningban are still facing sophomores and juniors who are diverted because their grades do not meet the standards. In case of senior year, the number of people who can successfully graduate and graduate school is only in the single digits, and everyone's face will be ugly, which reflects the necessity of fighting chicken blood.

The travel time was set at nine o'clock in the evening on September [-]rd.The two families have already helped prepare the luggage early. Although it is not particularly necessary, food and drink are guaranteed, and you can buy anything you need, but anyway, there is a special plane and there are many people accompanying it, so Ning Wei is very happy Accepted the deep love from the blood.

The most commendable person in the whole process is probably Xiao Ningke.Generally, children know that their dear parents are about to travel for a while, and there is a high probability that they will cry and want to follow. Therefore, both Ning's father and Ning's mother and Jiang's mother feel that this should not be let Ning Ke's children know in advance, lest the two of them have to go. When walking, the little guy does not stop.

But both Ning Wei and Jiang obviously felt that this was not good.

According to the two, if they would rather wake up and find that mom and dad are not at home without notifying her, it would be the greatest harm to the child.So Ning Wei had a formal discussion with Ning Ke in his study early on.

The first step is to hold Xiao Ning Ke and sit on her special chair, while I sit on my usual office chair, just like chatting with students, and communicate with Ning Ke as an adult who can communicate. In other words, at least the sense of ritual is directly filled.

"Coco, Dad has something very important to discuss with you formally today, and I hope to get your consent."

Ning Ke rubbed her white and tender fingers, and looked at the opposite father suspiciously, probably in her memory, Ning Wei had never been so serious as today.

"You have to talk, Coco."

"Huh? Hey, Dad, that's right, what is a formal talk?"

"This, just like now, we sit face to face and talk."

"Oh!" The little girl nodded suddenly, then took her little finger out of her mouth, looked at it reluctantly, and then sat up a little more upright according to her mother's usual request, her little face also appeared serious Looking at Ning Wei, he said to Ning Wei: "Okay, Dad, you are formal, um, let's talk formally."

Seeing Ning Ke's performance, Ning Wei is still very satisfied. A three-year-old child can have this kind of comprehension ability, so he must follow him.

So I continued to ask seriously: "The thing is like this, Dad and Mom have some important things to do recently, and they have to go out for a while. If everything goes well, they will be back in less than a month, so during this time you wake up every day. You won’t be able to see your parents anymore, and only your grandparents, grandma, your aunt and the aunts in the kindergarten are with you at home, can you promise to listen to the elders obediently every day?”

The little girl blinked blankly, and then asked, "How long is a month?"

"Well, it's 30 days..."

"30 days..." Ning Ke stretched out both hands, started gesticulating, and then gave up, because a sentence came from the opposite side: "Actually, it didn't take long, probably after you spent four weekends, Mom and Dad came back."

"Four weekends?" Ning Ke nodded ignorantly, and then thought of another question: "That is, father and mother have to go to work, and then they can't stay at home, and can't come back at night?"

"Correct!"

"But grandma said that my little brother and little sister are in my mother's belly, so it's best not to run around..."

"Grandma is right, but that's because when your little brother and little sister first moved in. Later, my parents went to ask the doctor, and the doctor told us that after three months, they had already adapted to the small house. It's very safe, and it won't affect you when you go to work."

"That's it..." Ning Ke nodded half-understanding, put her little finger into her mouth unconsciously, frowned, and after thinking carefully for a long time, she asked again: "Then mom won't be able to sleep with me that night. , what about the baby?"

"I have grandma to sleep with you!"

"Oh, what about grandpa?"
