"Professor, we don’t have much ti left. If we start over, it will take several more months, seriously delaying the project. Let us try again."
When Professor Xiang also supported Li Xiang’s idea, Su Bohai got anxious. He wanted to persuade him further, after all, this program was the result of two months of hard work. Just abandoning it was really heart-wrenching.
A program he developed was like his child. Now that the child was sick, his first thought was to rescue it.
"It won’t take several months. If you give it to , I can finish it within a week."
At this point, Li Xiang stood out. He really had the ability to complete it within a week, or even faster. With Xiao Mu’s help, he alone was more powerful than an entire technical team. Moreover, Li Xiang noticed that part of Xiao Mu’s core calculation code could be directly used. This way, the completed program would see significant improvents in both image quality and speed.
"Really?"
Hearing Li Xiang’s bold claim that he could complete the program redevelopnt within a week, Xiang Hui was clearly surprised.
"Professor, don’t listen to his nonsense," said Su Bohai, reprimanding Li Xiang. "I know you’re exceptional in Skull Restoration Technique, but do you have any idea about software developnt? With such a work volu, saying you can complete it in a week? Do you know it took our team two months to make this program? If you don’t understand, don’t speak randomly."
Qian Zhaoping saw that Li Xiang openly offended Su Bohai and felt a bit nervous for him, knowing that Su Bohai was notoriously hot-tempered.
Just now, he had quarreled with another manager about this matter, and now Li Xiang stood out as well.
Now, Su Bohai directed all his anger toward Li Xiang.
Even more defiantly, Li Xiang handed over his ignorance like a weapon.
The program, developed by a group of twenty people over two months, was dismissed by Li Xiang as sothing he could do in one week, inviting criticism.
"Just because others can’t do it doesn’t an I can’t."
Li Xiang ignored Su Bohai and looked at Xiang Hui, saying, "Professor Xiang, if you trust , just give a week, and you’ll see the results. They can restart too. At that ti, we’ll see which side completes more effectively, and we’ll use whichever is better. It won’t delay the developnt process anyway, but I have a small request."
"What request?"
Xiang Hui thought briefly and found Li Xiang’s suggestion reasonable. He couldn’t put such an important project all in one basket and decided to hear him out.
"I want to apply for access to the supercomputer."
"This..."
Upon hearing Li Xiang’s request, Xiang Hui hesitated. The use and managent of supercomputers were very strict. Even their institute had access due to being directly under the provincial governnt, which was very difficult to obtain.
If this privilege was given to Li Xiang, who would take responsibility if sothing went wrong?
"Who do you think you are? Supercomputers can’t be used just like that! If there’s a problem with a supercomputer worth over a billion, who will take responsibility? Our institute struggled hard to get this access. Every use must be applied for in advance to avoid resource occupation. There’s no way you’ll get to use it."
A supercomputer can’t be used by just one entity; nurous research institutions have to apply based on their needs and use it within the allocated ti to avoid overlap.
If a unit’s use of the supercomputer infects it with a virus, the losses would include not just the supercomputer itself but also the progress of countless other research projects.
"Are you confident?"
Xiang Hui also felt troubled. Li Xiang did have technical skills, possibly second only to himself among those present. Most importantly, from what he knew about Li Xiang, he wasn’t soone who liked to boast. He was quite reliable, and while his claims sounded extravagant, Xiang Hui believed Li Xiang wasn’t shooting off aimlessly.
He was even eager to see how Li Xiang planned to complete the core program developnt in one week.
"I’m eighty percent sure."
"Alright, I agree."
Seeing Li Xiang’s confidence, Xiang Hui gritted his teeth and granted his request, deciding he would take responsibility if sothing happened later.
He thought, nothing bad should happen.
"Professor?"
"You don’t need to say more. If sothing happens, I’ll take the bla."
Su Bohai was stunned. He didn’t expect that Li Xiang had gone mad, and the professor was following him.
"Hmph, fine, I want to see how you develop the Skull Digital Restoration Model core program in a week."
Seeing Xiang Hui not taking his side, he sat down angrily, no longer paying attention to Li Xiang and the others. He wanted to see what Li Xiang would present a week later and how he would explain it to everyone then.
"Thank you, Professor Xiang, for your trust. I won’t let you down."
With his goal achieved, Li Xiang was overjoyed.
With the computational power of the supercomputer, Xiao Mu would certainly be able to complete the calculation of the stock model.
Many there believed, like Su Bohai, that Xiang Hui had gone mad. They didn’t know Li Xiang’s true capability. Among them, only Xiang Hui vaguely guessed that Li Xiang’s capability might not be much inferior to his own.
