Chapter 116 Confused Rebus, do you call this 1.0?

"Oh? A new car?"

Chen Heyu walked out of the community, looked at the luxury car in front of him, and asked Zhang Nan with a smile.

"I specially ordered it for you at the auto show last month. I just got the car yesterday. Didn't you consider going to see Mr. Lei today? You can't let the driver drive that crappy business car."

Zhang Nan smiled and said.

The low-key temperament of my boss is extremely rare among Internet tycoons.

After other company bosses make money, they are busy buying villas, buying luxury cars, spending money on entertainment, and organizing yachts and private jets.

Where is Chen Heyu?

I always travel in a black Bilco GL8, with a retail price of less than 600,000, a car that even some second-rate stars can’t stand.

But it can invest a large amount of money into the AI ​​Research Institute to improve the salaries and additional benefits of engineers and researchers. It is even more ruthless when it comes to poaching cutting-edge talents, and dares to compete with competitors such as first-class universities, Gugou Labs, and Weisoft Research Institute.

Call directly.

If Moss AI International Edition hadn't successfully achieved profitability in overseas markets, Future Technology would really not be able to support so many technical personnel.

Zhang Nan quietly looked at Chen Heyu with admiration. It is inevitable that China's most advanced artificial intelligence will be born in future technology.

"What happened to the broken business? My first car cost just over a hundred thousand yuan."

Chen Heyu shook his head and smiled softly. He had been driving the Xiaoju for more than a year and it was economical and affordable.

"Ordering another car like this is a reward for you. As the CEO of Future Technology, you can't be looked down upon when you go out to discuss business."

He pointed at the Maybach Pullman Z560 and said calmly.

With the company's revenue level, purchasing a batch of luxury cars will not only facilitate travel, but also provide tax deductions. Why not?

"Boss, I'm sorry, I can't accept it.

The treatment given to me by the company is generous enough. If I use the same car as you, what will the people below think of me?"

Zhang Nan quickly shook his head with a firm attitude.

"Then let's downgrade it to a level of 2 million. That's it. Don't refuse anymore."

Chen Heyu said solemnly and waved his hands, not giving Zhang Nan a chance to argue.

Originally, the focus of future technology development was on software research and development, and there was no need for communication channels or business negotiations, but now the Moss voice version has been released.

His industrial tentacles must enter the physical industry. Luxury cars and high-end dresses are status symbols, and some superficial skills must also be done.

Zhang Nan hesitated to speak. Seeing that he acted arbitrarily, he did not dare to speak anymore.

Chen Heyu got into the car and sat in the back seat. He waited for her to catch up and then motioned to the driver to drive.

This Maybach is a customized model for the auto show, with a total price of 4.98 million. The body is 6.5 meters long. It has a V12 twin-turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 530 horsepower. It only takes 5 seconds to accelerate from static to 100 kilometers per hour.

The back row is equipped with a small tabletop, remote control, and independent audio and video system. The space is spacious enough for Chen Heyu to stretch his legs leisurely.

The car flew smoothly on the elevated road and headed towards the headquarters of the rice company.

Anding Road Rice Technology Park.

"Cheng Xi, help me postpone the morning meeting. You accompany me to meet someone."

Rebus took a sip of coffee and then spoke.

"Okay, Mr. Lei, I'll take care of it right away."

The female assistant Cheng Xi has followed Lao Lei for several years and knows his temper very well. She can make Rebus refuse regular meetings, and her status is definitely not low.

Without the other party's instructions, she booked the most luxurious conference room.

…

"Mr. Lei, I'm sorry to bother you. I heard that Rice Technology's coffee is good. I came here to taste it."

After Chen Heyu got out of the car, he saw Rebus waiting in front of the gate. He immediately ran over and held his hand.

Lei Jun is a veteran in the Internet industry. When the other party gives him face, he naturally wants to show respect. He looks like a little fanboy and just shouts "Are you ok".

"Did you hear that, Cheng Xi? Mr. Chen wants to have coffee, so why don't you make arrangements?"

Lei Jun smiled slightly, gave instructions to his assistant, and then led the way, introducing the layout of the rice office building and the core values ​​of each department.

Someone's mobile phone is a catfish, which makes everyone uneasy.

Wouldn’t it be nice to have fun and make money together?

If we insist on engaging in a price war, we will raise the price of smartphones to 1,999 yuan, which will kill a wave of rivals.

But this original intention did not last for a few years. After improving product performance and functions, the price of each new generation of rice products became more and more expensive.

Before its rebirth, the selling price of rice ultra13 was as high as 5,999 yuan, which was almost the same as Apple.

Therefore, the fundamental reason for the decline in smartphone prices is that technology and hardware costs are declining, and rice has acted as a promoter and beneficiary.

But no matter how you say it, you can't deny Rebus' contribution to the mobile phone industry. With rice, the average price of smartphones has been lowered.

Therefore, Chen Heyu still has a good impression of this big boss. After the Moss audio version was launched, the first partner he thought of was Lei Jun.

"The cooperation model between Rice and Kangaroo Express is very successful. In the past four months, distribution efficiency has increased by 130% and sales have increased by 12%. Mr. Chen, I want to thank you very much for this."

Rebus said with a smile.

"The main thing is that rice phones are competitive enough. What Kangaroo can do is just the icing on the cake."

Chen Heyu said modestly.

In 2013, rice production capacity was still insufficient, and fanatical fans needed to snap up purchases to get a new mobile phone.

The cooperation between the two platforms can only be said to be mutually beneficial, and it cannot be said that one relies on the other.

"Mr. Chen, this cooperation has allowed me to see the huge potential of the offline market. If I open a rice direct-sales store, will it be successful?"

Rebus humbly asked for advice.

"The idea is good, but it requires a rich product line. As far as I know, rice currently only has mobile phones."

Chen Heyu replied.

In this year, Daimi was still a company that only made machines. It did not sell sweepers or washing machines, and it was not even called a "grocery store."

"To be honest, I recently found a foundry to make my own power bank and continue to expand the product ecology."

Lei Jun said calmly, and then talked about his power bank plan.

From industrial design to shell UI, Rebus explained everything in an orderly manner, as if he was an expert in the field.

Only then did Chen Heyu understand that in the business world, no matter how talented he is, they are all a group of energetic doers.

The two walked into the conference room together. The assistant had already made two cups of hot coffee.

"Mr. Chen, try it first to see if it tastes good to you?"

Lei Jun sat down and said with a smile. He glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw that the object in Zhang Nan's hand was a yellow kraft paper bag. From its appearance, it was hard to guess what it was.

Chen Heyu picked up the cup, and a nutty and dark flavor hit his nostrils. He took a sip, and the taste was very rich. He knew that Lei Jun had definitely brought out his own treasure to entertain him.

"Mr. Lei, please be careful."

He nodded and smiled.

"Cheng Xi, help Mr. Chen get two bags of beans to take away later. Good things must be shared."

Lei Jun smiled slightly and said that he usually likes to drink coffee. Friends bring it to him and he sends it out again. Every time he comes back, he has a few more business partners.

"Then I won't be polite."

Chen Heyu readily accepted it.

"Mr. Chen, what project do you want to talk about today?"

After the pleasantries were over, Lei Jun went straight to the topic.

Chen Heyu didn't say anything clearly before he came to visit, but he believed that as the other party's identity, he went there in person and it was impossible to use small business to make fun of him.

"Mr. Zhang, please come and demonstrate."

Chen Heyu said to Zhang Nan, continuing to play riddles, making jokes with Rebus, and commenting on the flavor of the coffee.

Hearing this, Zhang Nan stood up and asked Cheng Xi for the WiFi password of the conference room. Then he opened the leather bag and took out a white rectangular cube. After completing the startup settings on his mobile phone, he introduced to Lei Jun:

"Mr. Lei, this is the first generation of voice smart speakers from Future Technology, referred to as Moss Voice Version 1.0.

With excellent machine recognition and voice interaction functions!

First, users can request songs through voice. We have reached cooperation with TT Music and Brown Bear FM, and have massive music resources and 1 million high-quality audio programs;

Second, the introduction of 14 million entries from Qiandu Encyclopedia can answer users’ common sense questions;

Third, it supports weather query, math problem calculation, stock market query, currency exchange rate calculation, memo, countdown and other practical functions;

Fourth, it can control smart home appliances through the network, truly realizing the vision of the fifth generation of housing;

…

The above are only the most basic functions of Moss Voice. Its core value is that through continuous training, you can become an expert in a field.

For example, by transmitting a large amount of primary and secondary school knowledge and simulated test questions to it, Moss can achieve a score of more than 700 on a college entrance examination paper after studying..."

Zhang Nan was talking eloquently, completely unaware of Lei Jun's and Cheng Xi's widened eyes, as well as their chins that were about to drop.

"This...impossible!"

After Zhang Nan finished narrating, Lei Jun suddenly stood up and said that he was a programmer by birth and knew how to write code.

By calling a search engine and using sensing technology, it is possible to realize the function of a voice encyclopedia, but the latter sentence, that the system can learn independently and obtain expert-level knowledge reserves, is completely fantasy in his opinion!

Clown tricks to defraud investors!

If it were anyone else, Lei Jun would definitely kick him out!

"Moss, please have a chat with Mr. Lei for a while."

Zhang Nan smiled and didn't take it seriously. Before Moss came out, she was also full of doubts about this product.

"Okay, Mr. Lei, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Moss spoke a wooden and mechanical language through the speaker.

"Play me a song, "Thank you for your love 1999"."

Lei Jun asked, intending to try the quality of this product.

"Okay, Mr. Lei, I'll play it for you right away."

Moss has a strong voice recognition ability and responded quickly. He called up the resources of the song in the music library and played it through the speakers.

Listening to this familiar song, Lei Jun was stunned for a moment, this system is awesome!

"Moss, please pause and answer a question for me. What is 123 times 654?"

Lei Jun's curiosity was aroused, so he left the others aside and started playing happily.

"The answer is 80442."

Moss replied.

Lei Jun took out his rice phone and immediately verified that it was exactly the same as the correct answer.

"Moss, what will the weather be like in Yancheng tomorrow?"

Lei Jun continued to ask.

"Tomorrow's maximum temperature will be 27 degrees Celsius, and the minimum temperature will be 16 degrees Celsius. The weather will be sunny and southwesterly wind."

Moss paused for two seconds and then quickly gave his answer.

"Mr. Lei, you can't test the most powerful side of Moss's voice like this. Let me do it."

Chen Heyu interrupted him. Lei Jun's three questions seemed complicated, but they were actually very simple.

"Moss, switch to the e-commerce operation role and help me write an event plan."

He opened his mouth with an unbearable S-level problem, which made Lei Jun and Cheng Xi look at each other in disbelief.

Can a speaker still do this job?

"Okay, here is an activity plan.

Event theme: Summer is hot, everyone is shopping

Event time: September 17-September 23, 2013

Target audience: All registered users of the APP

Purpose of activity:...

Event products:…

Activity content:…

Activity resource arrangement:…”

This time, Moss responded fifteen seconds later and spoke out an activity plan slowly.

Lei Jun was immediately stunned!

The system actually did this!

Although the gameplay and design concept of the activity plan are relatively simple, it is more clear and logical. A college student who has just left school would not be able to write it down.

"Moss, switch author roles and write a fairy tale for me, within 100 words."

Chen Heyu glanced at the shocked Rebus, smiled casually, and continued to ask Moss questions.

"Okay, Moss would be honored to write a fairy tale for you.

The little rabbit was lost. She was thirsty, hungry, and exhausted. Fortunately, she met a magical carrot. This carrot actually had magic. It allowed her to fly into the sky, dive into the water, and even defeat evil dragons..."

Moss replied.

Lei Jun has been completely petrified! He is a Muggle!

After a long time, he came back to his senses and murmured: "You call this version 1.0?"

"Yes, Mr. Lei, to be honest, Moss's intelligence is only equivalent to that of a seven or eight-year-old child. You are surprised because it is artificial intelligence and the brain can store more information, making it appear knowledgeable."

"In my conception, only when Moss understands human emotions can he truly realize artificial intelligence."

Chen Heyu put down the coffee cup in his hand and said calmly.

"Aren't you afraid of opening Pandora's box?"

Science fiction movies such as "District 9", "Terminator" and "Super Intelligence" appeared in Lei Jun's mind.

"Mr. Lei, it's just an artificial intelligence system. Artificial intelligence comes first, intelligence comes last. Human beings will always control the tools, rather than being used by them."

Chen Heyu shrugged and explained.

"How many career roles does Moss currently have loaded?"

Lei Jun's face turned pale as he thought of another, more terrifying possibility.

"There are only sixteen types now, and most of them are auxiliary roles in the liberal arts."

Chen Heyu replied that Moss's understanding ability in the fields of engineering and science is still like that of a toddler. A slightly more complex question will cause it to fall into a self-contradictory situation.

"If you make something like this, do you know how many people will lose their jobs?"

After Lei Jun reacted, he shouted angrily.

He switched from the Internet to the real industry. The first purpose was to revitalize China's mobile phone industry, and the other purpose was to create employment.

Chen Heyu's behavior is completely contrary to his behavior!

"Mr. Lei, I don't agree with your point of view. If the future technology does not develop artificial intelligence, will Gugou Research Institute give up? Will WeiSoft AI Lab take the initiative to shut down? As a human being, you cannot hide your ears and deceive others."

Chen Heyu directly retorted and continued: "When foreign technology in the field of artificial intelligence matures, and then enters China, who will fight against it at that time?"

"In the future, science and technology will be the leader. We don't want to destroy everyone's jobs. Instead, we need to go overseas as soon as possible and use technology monopoly to make money while promoting industrial upgrading. In this way, you and I will not be passive in the future."

Thinking back to the last life, after Oppe Ai released 5.0, how many people were panicked and how many industries were fearful.

After hearing this, Lei Jun lost most of his anger instantly. He knew that he was overreacting, so he apologized and said: "Mr. Chen, I'm sorry, I took the problem too extreme."

Yes, if you cover your ears and steal the bell, isn’t that deceiving yourself and others?
