Artificial intelligence, I believe this term is not unfamiliar to anyone who has been exposed to the Internet. In a dazzling array of Hollywood science fiction blockbusters, artificial intelligence often plays the role of villain, aiming to replace humans and become the master of the planet, and is ultimately defeated by the protagonist who has the aura of the protagonist.
It can be seen from the values exposed in mainstream film and television works that humans are suspicious and afraid of the existence of artificial intelligence.
A being that can exist without relying on a physical body, eternal and wise. There is no reason why such a "god" would succumb to human urges; it is entirely logical to assume so.
However, people's exploration of artificial intelligence has never stopped. Since the imagination of artificial intelligence in Alan Turing's "Computers and Intelligence" published in the 1950s, the atson designed by IM can now design its own recipes, participate in quizzes and other creative projects. It can be said that in just 60 years, artificial intelligence has achieved rapid progress.
So what about another 60 years
But it doesn't take 60 years anymore. In terms of artificial intelligence, Chinese netizens are lucky enough to have a taste of it.
A little-known software, as if it had been planned for a long time, has successively landed on major download platforms such as the Android market, 361 mobile market, and A-store. It is expanding at an almost exponential rate. With 1 million downloads in a single day on the tenth day, it broke the record of 600,000 downloads in a single day set by line.
It was nothing short of a miracle.
Logically speaking, the aroma of wine is also afraid of the depth of the alley. If you don’t put enough effort into marketing planning, even if the software you create is on N, it will take a while for everyone to become familiar with it. Looking at the Futureman Technology Co., Ltd. again, it was a name I had never heard of.
AI? Change the operation logic to triple the performance of mobile phones? Energy consumption reduced by two times? Automatically compatible with software on both Android and iOS platforms? Are you kidding me? Are all users idiots
Damn it, is it really artificial intelligence that can talk? That kind of parroting "siri" is so weak!
Damn it, it really can improve the performance of mobile phones by three times! You can play high-end mobile games on the wire hanging machine, and there are no lags? !
Damn it, it really can reduce energy consumption by twice. Brother, when will my Huawei 6 be able to stand by for two days? !
Damn...
...
A series of explosive responses naturally brought about a series of explosive downloads. The rave reviews made those people who were still skeptical to wait and see click the download with a try mentality, and then joined the Amway A camp amid the astonishment.
Future Man 1.0 has officially entered all eyes.

Inside the headquarters of 361 Company.
"I want to know who the developer of this software is, and what the hell the Futureman Technology Company is. I don't care what method you use, I want a complete report to be on my desktop in two hours. " Zhou Hongwei, the chairman of 361 Company, sat at his desk, rubbed his tired brow, and gave instructions to Zhang Jianfeng, the manager of the 361 Mobile Assistant Project Department.
"Yes." The middle-aged man nodded and quickly left the office.
"Boss, is that Future Man 1.0 really as scary as you said?" The secretary standing aside saw the silent expression on the boss's face and couldn't help but ask.
"Do you know what artificial intelligence and liberating mobile phone performance mean?" Zhou Hongwei raised his eyebrows, snorted and laughed.
"But considering user stickiness and... "
"Don't mention those gadgets. Those are only suitable when the software quality is similar." Zhou Hongwei rudely rejected the secretary's point of view, "Will you insist on using clamshell antiques after the emergence of smart phones?"
The young secretary couldn't help but be speechless. The point put forward by her boss made her irrefutable. Even if it was slightly different from the data argument in the book, the reality was here.
"The promotion of touch screen technology has liberated the extra 15 physical keys, but this Future Man 1.0 has directly liberated users' fingers. It has tripled the performance of mobile phones and has broken through the software technology that currently restricts the development of mobile games. Bottleneck. Moreover, these two epoch-making technological revolutions are actually concentrated on the same software. It's a pity... Even one of the functions, if it were born in our 361 company, I would totally Confidence can replace Penguin and become the new overlord of the Internet."
When he thought of the disastrous defeat in the last 3Q battle, he became very angry.
Zhou Hongwei tapped his fingers on the table. The secretary standing next to him swallowed and fell into silence with his boss.
Not even half an hour later, the door was pushed open.
Zhang Jianfeng didn't bother to knock on the door and walked quickly to the boss.
"The information is ready."
"Very good." Zhou Hongwei immediately reached out and picked up the information on the table. Instead of blaming Zhang Jianfeng for his rudeness, he praised his work efficiency.
After frowning and reviewing the materials repeatedly, Zhou Hongwei quickly gave instructions to the secretary beside him.
"You go contact Gu Cheng from the technical department, and I grant him the right to transfer technicians from all the company's projects. I only have one request, and that is to see a cracked version of Future Man 1.0 within a week."
"Yes." The secretary nodded and walked quickly out the door.
Then, Zhou Hongwei gave instructions to his capable general Zhang Jianfeng.
"Zhang Jianfeng, please contact Jiang Chen, the owner of Futureman Technology, and discuss with him the acquisition-related matters. It would be best if we can acquire it. If his asking price is within 2 billion yuan, I will approve it and you will agree directly. At the same time, , please ask him if he is interested in working in our 361 company."
"Yes." Zhang Jianfeng nodded. He did not feel that the boss's asking price was too high at all. As the person in charge of the 361 Mobile Assistant project department, he knows the value of this software.
Not to mention 2 billion yuan, even 2 billion US dollars is not high. The only thing Zhang Jianfeng hopes now is that the "rookie" named Jiang Chen still doesn't know the value of his software and is directly frightened by the astronomical price.
But is this possible? Jiang Chen estimates the market value of his company to be in the trillions.
Still US dollars.
At the same time, the scene that happened in 361 Company was also staged at the headquarters of Baidu and QQ Group. Even overseas high-tech industry giants such as Samsung, Microsoft, and Apple have developed a strong interest in this gadget born in China.
Acquisition, cracking, exploring cooperation possibilities... A series of meetings were held around the "blockbuster" Futureman 1.0.

"The total investment in marketing and promotion is 590,000 yuan, which includes hiring online trolls to create hot news, renting promotion platforms such as Baidu, Webo, WeChat, and QQ, as well as advertising spaces in other channels..."
Xia Shiyu has recovered from her cold. She is currently wearing smart business attire, standing in front of Jiang Chen's desk and reporting to him concisely.
Originally, office work could be carried out at Xia Shiyu's home as usual. However, for some reason, this girl suddenly objected strongly to this matter, and insisted on changing the office location here on the grounds that the office decoration was completed and the company should get back on track as soon as possible.
This girl was so "heartless", which made Jiang Chen, who stayed with her all night when she was ill, feel very "hurt".
"How many downloads are there?" Jiang Chen leaned on the boss's chair and asked lazily.
Seemingly accustomed to his lazy attitude towards work, Xia Shiyu did not have any dissatisfaction. She skillfully took out another report and continued, "The total downloads of Future Man 1.0 have reached 20 million. After the tenth day, it continuously set new highs in single-day download records... "
"Only 20 million?" Jiang Chen frowned and said slightly dissatisfied.
"It's already pretty good, okay?" Xia Shiyu rolled her eyes at Jiang Chen. Ever since the first time she woke up from a serious illness and found Jiang Chen by her side, she had somehow become a little unclear in her attitude towards him.
"China has 500 million smartphone users, and this is just a conservative value. I only account for 20 million of such a huge market, so why is it so much?" Jiang Chen smacked his lips greedily.
"It is expected that the number of users will exceed 100 million by the end of August. After all, our user base is still too small, and it is already very good to achieve such results..." Xia Shiyu flipped through the documents and explained quickly.
"No need to explain so nervously, I'm sure of your ability to work, Ms. CEO." Jiang Chen smiled.
"How can I be nervous!" Xia Shiyu retorted.
But she seemed to realize that it was pointless to argue with the shameless Jiang Chen, so she took a deep breath and brought the topic back on track: "At present, twelve companies have come to discuss cooperation and acquisitions with us. related business."
"You are welcome to cooperate. Please help me arrange a timetable. I will discuss it with them personally. As for the acquisition proposal, you can just reject it." Jiang Chen stretched his waist and said.
"Oh? IM made an acquisition proposal of US$1.3 billion." Xia Shiyu raised her eyebrows, handed the acquisition intention letter into Jiang Chen's arms, and smiled deliberately.
"Haha, I won't sell it for 13 billion U.S. dollars. You're telling me 1.3 billion? I'm dreaming." Jiang Chen took the acquisition intention letter and threw it directly into the trash can without even scanning it.
Seeing Jiang Chen's actions, Xia Shiyu unconsciously raised the corners of her mouth slightly. As far as the value of this software is concerned, she and Jiang Chen have the same idea.
Suddenly Xia Shiyu seemed to remember something again. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "By the way, Chairman, there is one more thing I want to confirm with you about this software."
"What's the matter? You don't need to call me Chairman, just Jiang Chen." Jiang Chen waved his hand.
"Please keep the distinction between public and private affairs, Mr. Chairman." Xia Shiyu responded skillfully, and then returned to the topic, "As for the quality of the Futureman 1.0 software, it is already impeccable. But regarding confidentiality. .. ...Is it really not necessary to register a patent?”
"Confidentiality? Is there any patent for software like this in China?" Jiang Chen asked with a smile.
Xia Shiyu was slightly speechless, but she still put forward her own opinions.
"At least this puts us in a good legal position. If another company uses the relevant technology without our permission, we can file an appeal request with the patent office."
"Registering a patent means giving a detailed explanation of the technology. To be honest, I can't believe it." Jiang Chen said simply, "Besides, I am sure that within fifty years, absolutely no one will be able to crack the Futureman 1.0 software. . What’s more, maybe within a few years, I will have invented Future Man 2.0. As long as we stay ahead of the curve, we don’t need any patents at all.”
The essence of a patent is to exchange publicity for protection (monopoly rights within a certain period of time). To meet the grant conditions, the patent text must "fully disclose" the technical solution, that is, to the extent that a person skilled in the art can repeat the disclosed solution.
However, this is something he is unwilling to do anyway. What good will it do to him to make D++ public? He's not that selfless.
Xia Shiyu fell silent after hearing this. She didn't know where Jiang Chen got his confidence and what kind of arguments he used to reach the conclusion of the so-called 50 years. But to her own surprise, she no longer insisted, but chose to believe.
"Okay, now that the major shareholders have made a decision, let's temporarily treat Future Man 1.0's core technology as a trade secret. I'll ask you to negotiate with the actual developers of the software to keep it confidential."
Nominally, he is the chief designer of this software, but this is just a false title. The public setting is that Future Man 1.0 was developed by a research and development team that exists somewhere abroad. His identity is only on the surface. agent on. Just like how he deceived Zhao Chenwu, this time he deceived the whole world.
Want to find the team that actually develops the software? Go and be in another world.
Jiang Chen smiled when he heard this and didn't say much, just nodded in agreement.
Just kidding, the D++ language that only appeared after more than a hundred years would be really crazy if these computer "experts" who "didn't even touch the door" crack it. It's like if someone who has never learned C language asks you to crack a technology written and encrypted in C language. Even if the code is thrown to you without encryption, you still have to be able to understand it, right? Unless you can learn a language that is more logical than C language just by guessing.
"On the other hand, considering the rising popularity of Future People Technology, after contacting the school and student organizations of Wanghai University, I applied to adjust the recruitment time and change the original recruitment location." Xia Shiyu said.
"Oh? You don't need to report such trivial matters to me. Just leave the schedule in my hands. I will make time to do the important things." Jiang Chen shrugged.
"It is not a trivial matter. Talent selection is a major event that is directly related to the future development of the company, especially the first batch of employees recruited. They will definitely be the backbone of the company in the future. Both their character and professional knowledge need to be rigorously assessed. Can."
"OKOK, because I believe in your ability, I entrust you with this important task."
Xia Shiyu's cheeks felt a little hot under Jiang Chen's "hot" gaze. Of course, because she wore light makeup and her facial expressions were not very expressive, Jiang Chen did not notice anything "abnormal" about her.
"Okay." Although he wanted to blame Jiang Chen, the chairman, for preparing for that important job fair, for some reason, all the words came to his mouth were reduced to one word.
"Then it's such a happy decision." Jiang Chen laughed, then stood up from the boss's chair and walked to the door behind Xia Shiyu, "If you need anything, call me. If the phone is not in the service area, you can call me first. Send me a text message and I will definitely call you back when I see it.”
After saying that, Jiang Chen left the company, leaving behind Xia Shiyu who was stunned.
Is there such an irresponsible chairman
Xia Shiyu held her forehead and smiled bitterly.
In fact, there is one thing she has not reported yet, that is, 7 companies have extended an olive branch to her, the second shareholder (5%) and CEO of Futureman Technology, including many well-known Internet giants. Being able to work in these companies is the dream of almost all graduates.
In the past, she might have paid attention to these solicitation messages, but this time she threw them into the shredder without even looking at them. Even she was surprised that she made such a decision without hesitation.
That's right... With the potential of Future Man 1.0, there is no need to consider working for Internet companies that are facing a "shuffle". Chairman... Jiang Chen should be working hard where he can't see it, otherwise this Future Man 1.0 wouldn't be able to fall out of thin air, right
Xia Shiyu gave her a reasonable reason.
Glancing at the messy piles of documents on her desk, she sighed at Jiang Chen's "working habits."
She walked forward and put them all in order, then she exited the chairman's office and closed the door gently.
