Haitian Technology was looking to collaborate with dostic computer laboratories.
So national and provincial key laboratories had really strong capabilities, but finding a key laboratory for joint R&D was not an easy task, and it wasn’t because the research funding could not be financed.
The key factor was... finding the right person!
Zhou Kai, the manager of Haitian Technology’s technology developnt departnt, happened to make acquaintance with Zeng Wenjun from the Computer Application Research Institute. When Zeng Wenjun learned about the technology problems that Zhou Kai’s company needed to tackle, he offered that the Computer Application Research Institute could take over the developnt.
Zhou Kai agreed.
First, the Computer Application Research Institute was a provincially emphasized computer laboratory; with this reputation, its competence was likely not to be disappointing.
Second, Zeng Wenjun didn’t ask for a high paynt, just an initial cost of two million.
If they could acquire the technology for dynamic image analysis identification, besides the initial two million Renminbi, even if it cost ten or twenty tis more, it would still be absolutely worthwhile.
Haitian Technology could rely on it to continually receive orders.
Until now.
The Computer Application Research Institute had made no progress in research and developnt for dynamic image analysis. Not to ntion identifying objects, it couldn’t even distinguish colors.
Zhou Kai also knew that the investnt was a total loss.
The Computer Application Research Institute might not think it’s a big deal, as they are a national departnt laboratory, and failed research just hurt their reputation, and the actual impact was not significant.
But the impact on Zhou Kai was trendous.
He was only the manager of the R&D departnt. The decision to spend two million without getting anything in return was obviously an issue within the company.
Now.
Zhou Kai saw a glimr of hope. "If I can get hold of this technology and help the company establish a technical advantage in the industry, then what’s a loss of two million?"
...
The first test of the robot shopping system was successful, providing ’R&D team’ (mainly Xu Chao, the leading coding officer) with huge motivation.
The next day, Xu Chao continued to work, preparing to input each item into the database, write execution codes, and develop a system that can recognize a large number of items.
In the anti, he also did so research on path-finding code, and recalling past research, he ca up with improvent and modification suggestions.
"Zhao Yi, I thought about it. Robot can add code to judge whether obstacles are moving, and there’s a thod that can reduce computation size. Even with this function, it won’t add too much..."
"Right, if we only calculate the speed of special objects, it will be very easy, like cars, bicycles, and other transportation tools."
"People can be considered as obstacles but can also be upgraded to interactive objects, which could add features to our product..."
Xu Chao kept poking his head out of the studio, suddenly bursting out sentences.
Zhao Yi’s responses were always, "um."
"Sure."
"You can test it!"
"Keep going!"
Initially, Xu Chao thought that Zhao Yi agreed with him, and he worked with great enthusiasm. However, when he ca out for the third ti, he realized it was not what he thought. He saw the girl who ca to their house, feeding Zhao Yi a nut.
Zhao Yi was enjoying the nut, and even peeled one for the girl.
The girl’s na was... Lin Xiaoqing?
Xu Chao suddenly realized why Zhao Yi always responded so simply. Probably because Zhao Yi wasn’t listening to his questions at all. He suddenly felt like he was like a Golden Retriever...
Constantly wagging his tail begging for food, hoping for the master to give sothing to eat, but the master was too busy showing affection with the girl to pay attention to him.
"This..."
Xu Chao quickly shook his head and went back to work.
Of course, Zhao Yi noticed Xu Chao, but Zhao Yi and Xu Chao were different. Computer code related issues, Zhao Yi could solve what took Xu Chao a full day, within an hour.
So...
Why should he spend more ti?
Whatever Xu Chao wanted to design or add was fine. When he was free, he could give so guidance.
He was studying mathematics with Lin Xiaoqing.
Lin Xiaoqing was doing difficult mathematics exercises while he was tackling complex function problems. After Lin Xiaoqing finished, he would help her to check the answers and guide her where she made mistakes.
Zhao Yi was the best ’test grading’ teacher.
He just needed to read the problems, glance at Lin Xiaoqing’s answers, and he could directly point out the errors.
Naturally.
He earned the admiring eyes of Lin Xiaoqing.
Both of their interactions were actually only about studying. Even peeling nuts for each other was just a joke. Zhao Yi’s heart was mainly focused on studying and didn’t have further thoughts to influence Lin Xiaoqing.
Xu Chao was the one who was ignored.
Xu Chao felt that his spirit had been severely tortured and he didn’t feel like working when he went back to his room, so he decided to go downstairs to the supermarket to find Sun Liang.
He felt that when it ca to mocking Zhao Yi, they could find common ground.
When they reached the entrance of the supermarket, the mont Xu Chao saw the figure of Sun Liang, he felt sothing was amiss. There was also a girl standing next to Sun Liang, showing him sothing and saying, "Look at this sausage."
"Red packaging. Like you said, so foods can’t directly define their color, but the shape can..."
"Long, oval, has both ends..."
"Just take a picture first."
"Here you go."
The girl handed the sausage to Sun Liang, naturally revealing a sweet smile as she did.
Her smile was so warm!
In an instant.
Xu Chao was once again shot through the throat by an arrow, not an arrow shot by Cupid, but a rusty one, it pierced his throat directly, leaving him speechless.
The Fat Boss hollered, "Why are you standing there? Co in!"
Xu Chao, suppressing his disappointnt, waved his hand absentmindedly, "Forget it, I suddenly rembered there’s sothing I haven’t finished yet."
After saying that he left the supermarket with a heavy heart.
"Should I get a girlfriend too?"
Xu Chao wondered.
Zhao Yi and Sun Liang, two eighteen years old boys, were both showing off their affection with a girlfriend, while he, a diligent and patient thirty years old, was always busy working.
His life was such a failure!
...
Monday ca around.
School day.
Zhao Yi and Lin Xiaoqing went to school together to continue experiencing their intense high school life.
Of course, only he seed to enjoy it.
It was just over three months until the College Entrance Examination. The atmosphere of the senior year was very tense. An electronic board was placed right in the center of the hall on the third floor, displaying ’College Entrance Exam Countdown: 96 days.’
If it was three months, it didn’t seem like a big deal. However, it felt completely different when converted into days.
A day can easily pass.
Converting it into days made it feel like the ti was flying by, giving the students a strong sense of urgency about the College Entrance Exam.
The elite class was even more pressing.
Lin Xiaoqing and Zhao Linlin were studying all day long. Hu Tianyan on the left seed very conscientious, at least she was serious during class. Only Wang Jian at the back was calm and composed.
Compared to studying hard for the College Entrance Exam, Wang Jian was obviously more fond of gambling.
Wang Jian was fooled by Zhao Yi’s ’coin toss,’ he had been studying how to toss the coin to get the desired result. He finally grasped the ’sense of touch’; he could toss the coin with his right hand, letting it spin up to four tis in the air before catching it with the sa face. Naturally, he could also control it to show the opposite face.
Zhao Yi was quite surprised. He was also very skilled at flipping coins, but he could only control it to spin two or three tis.
Wang Jian clearly had more talent.
"Can you try it again?" Zhao Yi had Wang Jian try it several more tis, and only once did he fail. The coin seed to be tossed normally, making it seem like it fell randomly.
"Impressive!"
Zhao Yi nearly gave him a thumbs up.
Wang Jian said with a proud tone, "That’s nothing. I recently learned a new trick. Wait till I show you this magic trick!"
"How do you play it?"
Wang Jian checked the ti, took out a deck of cards from the drawer, and showed Zhao Yi a card trick, and Sowhere in this process, he said, ’Is this the card!’"
"In your sleeve!"
Zhao Yi correctly guessed the answer.
Wang Jian was stunned for quite so ti. He said with so disbelief, "Did you already know? Look at this!"
He perford another magic trick, accurately finding the card that Zhao Yi had randomly chosen from the deck. But Zhao Yi imdiately discovered his trick, "Your hands are indeed quick, but hiding the card in your palm..."
"..."
Wang Jian started to lose his confidence.
During the next class, Wang Jian was not focused at all.
After class, he imdiately turned around and perford the magic card trick for others. Amid the astonished inquiries of ’how did you do that’ from a large crowd, he regained his confidence.
But...
Why did Zhao Yi always know? Has he studied magic tricks too?
