Xueba's computing system

Chapter 26 Successfully Collected Merchant Data
Since the computing system can accept unprocessed data, it means that as long as there is data, the form of the data is not important.

So, Lin Yuan realized: It seems that you can't expect the system to automatically obtain the data of the merchants at this location after specifying an address. This process is indeed a bit mysterious, and it is essentially relying on the system to have a third eye.

Lin Yuan then thought of a solution. He immediately took out his mobile phone, pointed it at the breakfast shop he had just visited, and turned on the camera.

After a short while, a video of about one minute was loaded from the mobile phone into the system.

The system then quickly gives the average time it takes for the merchant to pack a breakfast based on the video.

"Damn, it turns out that information can be extracted from video data."

Lin Yuan then turned around and went back to the breakfast shop.

"Young man, have you forgotten something?"

"No, give me another bowl of soy milk. I'm a little thirsty."

Taking the opportunity of sitting down to drink soy milk, Lin Yuan finally realized - damn, this breakfast shop is probably a small business, and there is not even a camera in the store.

Soon, Lin Yuan had a bold idea.

He left the half-full bowl of soy milk behind and walked quickly along the street, looking inside every restaurant he passed.

The only shop that opens early in the morning is a breakfast shop.

Finally, he found a breakfast shop that had cameras installed.

Lin Yuan ordered two more buns and a cup of soy milk and sat down.

[System, can you automatically obtain data from this camera? ]

[Don't say you can't do it, you are a system after all. ]

Lin Yuan suddenly felt dizzy, but fortunately the dizziness lasted only for a very short time.

After I calmed down, the system finally gave a prompt.

【Discover new rules.】

New rules? Just as Lin Yuan was puzzled, the system gave another prompt.

[New rules - obtaining data of a certain type through monitoring equipment.]

Lin Yuan's idea was finally confirmed. At this moment, a red aperture appeared on the camera in his eyes.

[Can you change it to the "F" key for me? ] Lin Yuan is still used to the F key icon guidance.

The system cooperated for once, and the red aperture on the camera was replaced by a floating "F" key icon.

Lin Yuan drew a line in the air with his finger, simulating pressing the "F" key.

[This monitoring device is not connected to the Internet! ]

Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment, then... [Shit! You are a system after all, can you not follow scientific laws from beginning to end?]

[You actually need an internet connection to get camera data? 】

Lin Yuan was so unlucky that the camera he found was one that cached data locally and was not connected to the external network.

Lin Yuan had to change breakfast shops again. He felt that he could even skip lunch. [After all this time, you can only use hacker tricks. You are the lowest system I have ever seen.]

【Access to monitoring equipment successful! 】

Lin Yuan burped as he walked out of the third breakfast shop. He finally figured out the routine of building the system data channel.

Simply put, from the perspective of the system, apples will still fall from the tree, don't expect apples to fly into the sky. The consistent characteristics of the system are still within the scope of scientific laws.

There is no need to say much about what happened next. Lin Yuan finally shamelessly stood at the door of each store, or through the glass door that had not yet been opened, and calibrated the system with each camera.

There are a few stores that don't have cameras or the cameras are too hidden to be found, or the cameras are not connected to the Internet at all, but these have little impact on the overall situation. Data collection only needs to complete most of the collection.

As long as the camera calibration of most of the stores in this area is completed, Lin Yuan can just be a hands-off manager and let the system automatically collect merchant data.

This is Lin Yuan’s second realization – the importance of direction.
-
In half a day, Lin Yuan swept several streets on his electric scooter.

Suddenly, another idea popped into his mind.

Since the system can obtain the video data of the camera after calibrating the camera, can I see the images of these cameras? Hehe!

However, Lin Yuan soon remembered that he had been forced to black out for two hours by the system because he tried to use the system to mine. So, forget it. He learned his lesson this time and did not dare to try to use the system to do something obviously dishonest.

Therefore, the video data from those cameras are collected by the system and will not be seen by Lin Yuan.

As it approached noon, the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and it was no longer possible to stay on the streets.

Lin Yuan looked at the road surface that looked a little distorted due to the sun, and he thought back to the days when he was delivering takeout.

After the comparison, he was a little dazed. For a few moments, he thought that he should find a way to improve the daily life of the delivery boys. He looked at his still dark arms, and the job of delivering food was really hard.

If I didn't get the system, I probably wouldn't be able to get into Zijin Aviation School. After all, who can guide me in my studies as carefully as the system?

Lin Yuan felt that among the delivery guys there must be quite a few lazy ones who were too lazy to use their brains, but there must also be quite a few unlucky ones who lacked guidance like himself before.

While he was thinking, a delivery electric scooter ran through a red light.

Lin Yuan knew very well why so many delivery guys did not obey traffic rules.

One of the reasons is the order dispatching and delivery mechanism of the platform. Another reason is the vicious competition among the delivery guys. Even if you don’t run a red light, you can’t stop others from running a red light. If you run a few red lights along the way, then others will be faster than you.

Lin Yuan doesn't want to blame the food delivery platform for its evil deeds like some people do. With a background in science and engineering, he is used to thinking about the reasons behind things.

To solve this problem, it is definitely not enough to rely on publicity and education. It is also not enough to rely on arrest and punishment, because you can't fine all the delivery guys who run red lights. Besides, they earn their money through hard work, so how can you punish them?

Therefore, the only way is to impose restrictions through the algorithm of the food delivery platform.

As long as the algorithm can detect the majority of delivery guys running red lights, this unfair competition can be curbed.

This is the power of technology. Using technology wisely can make the world a better place.

However, Lin Yuan needs to focus on solving the problem at hand first. He needs to make himself "successful" first so that he will have the energy to "help others" in the future.

We have found a way to collect data from merchants, and the only thing left is to spend time scanning the streets. The next step is to collect data from riders.

Lin Yuan had met many fellow riders when he was delivering food before, so he could chat with them and experiment with the "rider data collection plan" that he already had in mind.
