Song Jinning had no idea that Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi would come so late and ask about his father Song Haichuan, who had passed away nineteen years ago.
Her gestures slowed down, she slowly put down the small red clay teapot in her hand, and looked at Huo Shaoheng thoughtfully: "Why do you ask that?"
"It's impossible for my grandfather to be the director of the Institute of High Energy Physics right after graduation, right?" Huo Shaoheng pointed to the screenshot on his mobile phone and said, "Have you ever written code?"
Song Jinning frowned, "What code?"
She looked at the screenshot of the email that Huo Shaoheng showed her, and was very surprised: "What's going on? What game source code?"
"Not only the game source code, but also this Swiss bank account number." Huo Shaoheng was very familiar with Swiss banks. He had already asked someone to check the bank account number, "...it proved to be that it was left by a person named Song Haichuan."
This bank account is the account used by ourLife, a large online game company, for regular bank transfers.
"And a Swiss bank account number?" Lu Yuan was also interested. After thinking for a while, he said: "The Director Song I know is a very knowledgeable and wise man. He only has experimental research in his heart. It's not like he secretly opened a bank account for himself." Someone with an overseas bank account.”
"Is he the same person as my father?" Gu Nianzhi couldn't help but ask, "A genius, but not worldly?"
"No, Director Song is very approachable and treats everyone equally. Not only everyone in the institute likes to respect him, but even people at all levels of the military who worked with him at that time also praised him highly." Lu Yuan was the person who collaborated with Song Haichuan the most back then, which is why Huo Shaoheng did not avoid him.
He needed Lu Yuan to provide more information for research and judgment.
Gu Nianzhi's eyes widened in surprise, "It's completely different from my father..."
"That's not surprising. There is not just one type of genius." Lu Yuan smiled, "However, they also have things in common, such as enthusiasm for their research careers, rigorous academic attitudes, and tireless work. Style, with these things, they can make contributions that others cannot."
Gu Nianzhi nodded with emotion, "That means he is smarter than you and works harder than you, right?!"
Lu Yuan smiled, "It's okay for you to think so."
Gu Nianzhi and Lu Yuan were talking next to each other, sketching out a general image of Song Haichuan. Song Jinning couldn't calm down when he recalled his father.
She stood up, walked back and forth in the room, folded her arms, and muttered: "My father never considered himself a genius. He always said, 'There are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world.' He is also very open-minded. But he is willing to cooperate with geniuses, because this can generate more sparks of ideas and promote technological progress."
"Then what's going on with this source code?" Gu Nianzhi tapped the phone screen with his slender finger, "This document shows that the author of this source code is Song Haichuan. Although there is no other evidence, it just so happens that your father is also named Song Haichuan, if the two are not the same person, this coincidence is really a coincidence. - Whether you believe it or not, I don’t believe this is a coincidence."
"I don't believe it either." Huo Shaoheng frowned, "But if it was really my grandfather, when did he write this source code, and why did he give it to a game company to develop the game?"
On that document, they could see the date of the signing, but they couldn't know the motivation behind it.
Song Jinning looked at the document again and suddenly said, "Is there that source code? I want to see it."
Huo Shaoheng looked at Gu Nianzhi, "Can you get it?"
Gu Nianzhi said hurriedly: "I'll go ask."
She and Lu Jin once hacked into that online game's server, but didn't get much information.
According to their inference, there should be a difference between an internal network and an external network.
Important information is placed on the internal network, and the online game structure is on the external network. They hacked the external network server, but they were unable to access the information content on the internal network.
But this time Vladimir and the others sent people to the Cayman Islands, and they should be able to break through the internal network.
She sent Vladimir a text message asking him for the source code.
Vladimir immediately contacted Peter and Lina and asked them to find the original source code, which was said to be only twenty-five lines, and send it over.
Peter and Linna downloaded all the folders in the intranet server and searched for the source code.
Seeing Vladimir's request, they quickly sent it over in encrypted files.
Vladimir didn't waste a minute and immediately sent it to Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi drank a cup of tea and had already received the source code. She hurriedly showed it to Song Jinning and asked excitedly: "... Did you remember anything?"
Song Jinning also has some computer skills, and the source code is originally a text file for people to read.
She looked at it for a while, still confused, and asked Gu Nianzhi: "Do you know what this source code can do?"
Gu Nianzhi hurriedly explained: "There is a large online game called ourLife. It is said that this online game is based on this source code."
"Large-scale online games?" Song Jinning asked again: "Can you tell me more carefully?"
"To put it simply, this game is about recreating the scene. You can choose some settings to complete a task, or in other words, some of your staged life goals."
"For example, if I want to get promoted, I can choose my major, work experience, company, and game among colleagues. It's like a life scene. Every choice you make here points to your future. Whether the goal is achieved. If you succeed, you pass. If you fail, your life is over."
"These scenes can overlap with other players. If everyone chooses related settings, for example, if everyone chooses the same company, then they are players' competitors."
"To put it simply, that's it." Gu Nianzhi thought for a moment and then added: "This game scene is very realistic, so realistic that it is almost like reality, and it is originally a VirtualRealit, a virtual reality game."
Huo Shaoheng also played this game with Gu Nianzhi. Later, he went there several times for Zuo Qinghong, and continued: "It is said that the realism of the game scenes has a lot to do with the source code. The more realistic the scenes, the more The more code there is, the greater the demands on the server.”
"Just like those photos with higher and higher resolutions, they require more and more memory."
"But this game doesn't seem to have this problem. It has been online for several years, and it has almost never crashed."
Gu Nianzhi looked at the twenty-five lines of source code and was amazed: "If only these twenty-five lines of source code could generate so many executable programs, that would be really amazing!"
Even if her father is nearby, he may not have such ability to write code...
After hearing what Gu Nianzhi said, Song Jinning suddenly realized.
She walked to her seat and sat down, tilted her head and looked at Gu Nianzhi's cell phone, and said thoughtfully, "You said that, but I remembered it."
"When my dad was young, the only thing he did related to computer programming was that he used a computer to simulate a scene in order to study magnetic resonance. He named it lator."
"Lator? Simulator?" Huo Shaoheng leaned forward slightly with a solemn expression, "As far as I know, lator is used most often in nuclear physics. Has my grandfather studied nuclear physics before?"
