After two classes, Du Ruo and the others changed classrooms to the laboratory building to continue the class. The net is worth your collection
When she passed the corridor with her schoolbag on her back, she saw Jing Ming.
He stood next to the safety door in the stairwell and said, "Come here." He went to the other end of the corridor.
Du Ruo wrinkled her nose, grabbed the strap of her schoolbag, and followed slowly.
In the stairwell, a classmate passed by going up and down the stairs, and the two distanced themselves from each other without looking at each other or speaking.
On the last day of May, outside the window is the grand summer, the hot sun shines, and the skin is slightly sweaty.
When the students are gone,
"What's the matter..." she asked, clenched her fingers subconsciously, looked outside, and said, "I'm going to class soon."
He leaned on the handrail of the stairs and said, "If you are interested, you can join Prime."
Du Ruo was stunned, looked up at him, then looked away in a second, lowered his eyes and thought for a while, and said the same sentence: "No."
Jingming frowned. Rejected again, already upset: "Reason?... Don't tell me about orbit. You are just an assistant, you have no contact with core projects, there is no confidentiality clause, and there is no problem in the process."
"I know. But..."
But what, she couldn't tell.
He didn't want to talk nonsense with her, so he asked directly, "Have you been on bbs?"
"...No." She lied.
He was slightly annoyed: "Go up and watch now."
"..." She bravely turned on her phone, went to the forum, and opened up the content she had read yesterday.
"Du Ruochun, I smashed things in front of so many people, and I told the teacher, just to rob people. The whole school knew about it. It turned out to be a good thing. If you don't show up, where can I put my face?"
Du Ruo was startled, not expecting this influence.
If she doesn't go, this incident may turn into lace or jokes. Both her and Jingming's situation will become embarrassing.
Why is it suddenly hard to get off the tiger
He saw that she was struggling, and sneered sarcastically: "I kindly want to vent your anger on you, and you're going to cheat me like this!"
"I..." She bowed her head and remained silent for a long time, her thin eyebrows were furrowed, and she was at war with heaven and man in her heart.
"I'll show you something else." He took out his mobile phone, sent her a link, glanced at the time, and said, "Go to class. Give me an answer within today."
After finishing speaking, I put my phone in my pocket and went downstairs.
As soon as he leaves.
Her shoulders unconsciously relaxed, and the inexplicable pressure on her body was instantly removed.
She stayed in place for a few seconds before suddenly remembering that she was going to class, and hurried across the midsummer campus to the laboratory building.
She was serious about class, and didn't pay attention to the link sent by Jingming on her mobile phone. She didn't think of watching it until she returned to the dormitory after lunch. It was a concept promotional video.
The background music is magnificent, the light and shadow are gorgeous, the text and the picture are switched,
"15 countries"
"24 participating teams"
The screen flashed a racing car with exquisite curves and the smiling faces of young people.
Suddenly, the music became intense, and the racing cars galloped on the track,
"Cutting-edge technology"
"Cutting-Edge Science"
Blue sky, blue sea, loud voices,
Colorful flags are waving, and a car crosses the finish line.
The world turned black, the music disappeared, and in the silence, two lines of words appeared on the screen:
—
The first global college student unmanned racing competition
Shenzhen, China
August 2017
—
Such a top game!
She had heard a few months ago that the World Unmanned Car Racing Competition would be held in Shenzhen this summer.
Unexpectedly, Prime is also one of the participating teams.
There is no class in the afternoon, and the weather is too hot at noon. She originally wanted to take a nap, but the smiling faces of those young people and the racing cars were swaying in her mind. Her heart was pounding and tossing, and she couldn't fall asleep at all.
I clicked on the concept promotional video and watched it several times. I was really greedy, so I sent Jingming a message:
"If I join, will the other members agree?"
Soon, a message came back from there: "After the two-month probationary period, we will talk about it."
Du Ruo: "..."
That's not what it said in the morning.
Besides, she is not that weak!
Another message came over there: "Shares are divided according to ability and contribution. Prime refuses to eat and drink for nothing."
Du Ruo was so stimulated by these words that he sat up from the bed all of a sudden: "Give me more, but I don't want it!"
That end didn't make sense.
She held the phone and waited for a while, but there was no reply, and she fell back on the bed again.
The sun was scorching outside the window, and it was a bit stuffy inside.
She frowned, a little tangled, a little melancholy, and a little apprehensive.
The phone rang again, and the message came from Jing Ming: "Come to the lab if you don't have class. Be conscious."
She was taken aback, and immediately climbed out of bed, changed her clothes and washed her face, put on her schoolbag and ran to the prime laboratory.
When she reached the door, she carefully knocked on the door, pushed it open a crack, and took a look with her head.
Wan Ziang was the first to see her, and said with a smile, "The newcomer is here."
As soon as this was said, the busy boys all looked over. Although they all knew each other, their expressions were fresh, and their young faces were full of joy and kindness.
"You're finally here. Fresh blood! I'm tired of seeing this group of people face to face all day long!" The voice came from behind a computer. It was He Wang, a boy in Xia Nan's class, a computer genius in their college.
"Li Wei, your class flower is here." This is Tu Zhiyuan, the automation genius in He Huanhuan's class.
Li Wei smiled: "It's the team flower now, right Xiaocao?"
Du Ruo was embarrassed: "What did you call me?"
"Don't your roommates call you Xiaocao? Haha. Xiaocao is so cute."
"Du Ruo sounds so nice, why is it called Xiaocao?" He Wang didn't understand, "If you want to call it, you should call it Xiaohua'er. People like Jingming are grass."
"Are you done with all this nonsense?" Jing Ming walked over.
"Don't you welcome new members? Welcome, Du Ruo." He Wang raised his eyebrows at her, and after finishing speaking, he calmed down and continued with the matter at hand.
After the others greeted each other, they were also busy.
Jingming walked up to Du Ruo, glanced at her: "Here?"
"Hmm." She rubbed her hands uncomfortably. She was sweating from running over just now.
"Is it hot outside?"
"Um."
He picked up a bottle of water, unscrewed it and handed it to her, and she quickly took it: "Thank you."
"Take a look with you." Jing Ming walked a few steps, didn't hear the footsteps behind him, looked back, she was drinking water, saw him looking at her, quickly put down the bottle, screwed on the cap, and coughed lightly.
Jing Ming: "Follow me."
"Oh." She hurriedly followed him and walked around the laboratory.
He walked ahead with his pockets in his pocket, his voice was not loud, but very clear:
"In the end, driverless cars are not cars, but robots."
Du Ruo: "A robot that looks like a car. Transformers?"
He glanced at her sideways and continued: "In simple terms, it is the same as all other simple and complex robots—sensors receive information, pass it on to the computer for processing, the computer analyzes the information and issues execution commands, and the motors receive the commands and perform operations. "
There are ten people in the laboratory, if Du joins, there will be eleven people. At present, it is divided into sensing group, control group and execution group.
The sensing group studies ultrasonic radar, gps, acceleration sensor, imu and other sensors to accurately observe road conditions and vehicle conditions, make "eyes" and "skin" for vehicles, and transmit external information to computers.
The control group researches the computer processing system to provide a "brain" for the vehicle, receives information from the sensor system, judges and analyzes it, makes instructions, and communicates them to the execution system.
The execution group studies the steering wheel, accelerator and brake, etc., and acts as "hands and feet" to strictly implement the instructions conveyed by the "mind".
Jing Ming looked at her: "Do you know where you are?"
Du Ruo nodded, she will join the first link of this chain: "Sensing group."
"You are the eyes." Jing Ming said, "Remember, this is a very important part."
At this moment, he is not the boy who laughed at him back then, nor the benefactor who helped her out yesterday, but the captain of Prime, who is serious, firm, and responsible for everything in this laboratory.
"Remember." She nodded emphatically, inexplicably, for a moment, she was responsible and honored.
Eye.
She is the eyes.
A year ago, she sat in the classroom, confused because she didn't understand "sensing and control", and wondered why she chose this unfamiliar major, and fell into long-term anxiety and distress.
Looking back now, on the road of life, you don't have to be depressed because you don't have lofty ideals and goals for a while, and there are not so many just destiny waiting for you. Only when you pass by do you encounter them.
Du Ruo stayed in the laboratory all afternoon, learning about the development history and current progress of the prime unmanned driving project, as well as the achievements of the sensing team and the problems to be solved.
The more I look at it, the more I feel that this team is amazing.
Jing Ming said that she and the team are allowed to have a period of running-in. After the racing competition, if she performs well, prime will keep her.
And she decided to accept the challenge.
…
In the evening, the people in the team went out for dinner as usual.
In a high-end Chinese restaurant near the school, the boxes with floor-to-ceiling windows are hung with Chinese red silk ribbons on three sides, and the green rockery in the courtyard can be seen on one side. There is a huge mahogany round table in the center of the box. Plates, cutlery, and display work are neat and tidy.
After Jing Ming entered the box, he looked back and saw Du Ruo coming. She was still going in, but he pulled a chair out of her way, she was stunned for a moment, but sat down anyway.
After she sat down, he sat next to her, leisurely removed the napkin and spread it in front of him.
Du Ruo peeked at him, and spread the napkin imitatively. She thought it was spread on the table before.
The waiter brought four or five menus, and everyone gathered in a small group to order.
Jing Ming opened the menu, flipped through a few pages, and asked in a low voice, "What do you want to eat?"
Du Ruo heard him talking to herself, turned around and said, "Anything is fine."
He turned a page or two and said, "No 'would do.'"
Du Ruo: "..."
He handed the menu in front of her: "Order two."
Du Ruo looked at it for a while and said, "Stir-fried shrimp and boiled fish."
The waiter came to order, and everyone in the team ordered the same, and when they arrived at Jingming's place: "Stir-fried shrimp, boiled fish." Closed the menu and returned it to the waiter.
Waiter: "What would you like to drink?"
He Wang: "Here's a case of beer first, wait a minute, can you return the unfinished ones?"
"OK."
"OK."
Jing Ming didn't drink, but asked for a pot of Longjing, and turned to Du Ruo, "What do you drink?"
He was too close to her, and her breathing was slightly stagnant: "Huh?"
He Wang asked, "Does Xiaocao drink?"
Du Ruo waved his hand: "I won't drink."
"Freshly squeezed corn juice." Jing Ming said to the waiter.
The waiter finished reporting the menu and left.
Let's chat.
Although Du Ruo is a newcomer, he knows all the boys in the team and is of the same age, so they are very comfortable getting along together. Although the content of everyone's conversation is related to the research project of the laboratory, she is no stranger to it, so she has the right to learn more about it.
"On the way here, I received a call from Mr. Liang Wenbang," Li Weidao, "saying that the school intends to recommend our project to the Ministry of Science and Technology. After the initial research and development is completed, we may get support from the state."
Du Ruo was very surprised, not wanting everyone to be calm, as if this was expected.
Tu Zhiyuan asked: "What about the materials collected at the entrepreneurial project exhibition? There are quite a lot of companies that want to invest and cooperate with us?"
Li Wei: "More than half of them passed directly. The conditions are very poor, and they are putting on airs. Maybe they don't believe that we can succeed."
While speaking, the restaurant has begun to serve food one after another.
The taste of the dishes is really good, Du Ruo has a great appetite, and listens carefully to everyone's speech while burying her head in the food.
Li Wei continued what he said just now: "After screening for a few days, all small companies and small investors were selected. The remaining six are more reliable."
They are the leading domestic Internet operation company, automobile manufacturing company, two famous investment companies, a foreign Internet giant company and a well-known investor.
Zhu Tao said, "Sounds very good."
Jing Ming said, "I personally prefer not to cooperate with big companies."
"Why?"
"Large companies and large companies already have their main camps and strong projects, especially their traditional profit areas, which will always be the core. Unmanned driving will be reduced to the edge. Someday the leadership will change, or the results will not be significant within a few years. Shareholders Once they vote, they can easily cut off or sell the project. Now it seems that so many companies are chasing us, just wanting to extend their tentacles to more fields, and it is still just a gimmick.”
Du Ruo drank the corn juice, nodded in admiration, and glanced at him subconsciously.
He Wang agreed: "Yes, that's what I'm worried about too."
Tu Zhiyuan said: "I also think it's better to set up your own business and find investors."
Li Wei sighed softly: "Let's find an investor. The conditions are good, but the requirements are correspondingly much harsher. Like equity, how many years must be profitable, what activities must be participated in and so on."
Jing Ming took a sip of the tea in his cup, remained silent for a while, and suddenly said: "On the day of the exhibition, Yan Ruoyu came to our exhibition area."
Everyone at the table was stunned: "Old Yan?"
"right."
Yan Ruoyu was born in a famous family and is a famous mechanical engineering expert. He was also the first group of scientists in China to study unmanned driving decades ago. Unfortunately, due to various reasons such as the times, technology, and conditions, he failed.
And he has devoted his life to cultivating and supporting promising young people in China to start high-tech entrepreneurship, and is determined to build a local technology brand with strong international competitiveness. Entrepreneurial groups and large companies that grew up from his investment have spread all over China.
He Wang said pleasantly: "Fuck, he won't be interested in our project, right?"
"Don't get excited." Jing Ming poured cold water on him, "He didn't contact us."
He Wang sighed.
Wan Ziang also sighed: "I heard that there are nearly a thousand project proposals sent to Yan Lao's desk every year. Maybe he chose someone else."
Jing Ming said: "Don't even think about it, just work hard on the project. As for who to cooperate with, we will talk about it later. The most important thing at the moment is not cooperation, let alone cashing out, but doing things well."
"Of course!" Everyone laughed and nodded in unison. Every smiling face has no heart, clean and pure.
Du Ruo bit his ribs and nodded seriously involuntarily.
The turntable in the middle of the table was turning, and she saw the shrimp turning around at a glance, and stretched out her chopsticks to pick it up, but today there were more dishes, and the shrimp was placed in the center, so she couldn't reach it with short hands.
Seeing that the turntable was about to turn away, Jing Ming put down the teacup, took a spoonful of shrimp and put it on her plate.
"..." She was stunned for a moment, then whispered, "Thank you."
Fortunately, people around did not care.
He was just taking care of the team members, she silently ate the Q-bombed shrimp, and heard Zhu Tao joke: "Jingming, why don't you ask your dad to invest."
"Come on." Jing Ming groaned, and said with disgust, "I can't stand his flirtatious behavior."
Everyone: "..."
Who is that cool
When he was almost done eating, Jing Ming got up to pay the bill, went to the front desk and swiped his card to come back, and met Li Wei.
Li Wei stepped forward and hooked his neck, pulling him aside.
"what?"
"Hey, are you interested in her?" Li Wei asked.
Jing Ming paused for a second, and naturally knew who the "she" he was talking about was: "What's wrong?"
"you answer me first."
"You want to take care of it?" He wanted to lift his hand,
Li Wei didn't let her go, and tightened his grip: "Du Ruo is a pretty good girl. I'm a good friend with her. I don't want to see her get hurt. If you don't like her very much, don't provoke her."
Jing Ming: "Can you control my affairs?"
