- "There is always someone who can complete it, and this person may not be me, Li Zhuang!" Someone's persistence or stubbornness is beyond the reach of ordinary people, although Xia Yuande, who knew the inside story, persuaded him more than once.
"Are masters born?" Li Zhuang asked.
"Okay, keep thinking about it, and don't forget to find a girlfriend."
Handsome guy Xia Yuande had no shortage of girlfriends before he got married, but Li Zhuang had no luck with women. He is unkempt and stays in workshops, laboratories, design studios, libraries, bookstores and universities.
This senior mechanic who always smells of engine oil makes many beauties run away. He is not a cheerful person with an ordinary appearance. He doesn't talk much, which makes him feel unapproachable.
There is no doubt that it is difficult to create a new language. So many masters cannot complete it. Li Zhuang is not arrogant enough to think that he can be better than everyone.
"Only the right ones are useful, and there is no need to compare functions and ease of use with other languages." This is the principle Li Zhuang has set for himself.
There are dozens of computer languages, commonly used ones such as c, c++, java, vb, etc. However, the languages ??used in the automation field are different from those in the PC field. The most commonly used are vhdl, c and assembly. Each language has different security, functionality, portability, and work goals. There is no language that can be ported to all platforms without affecting security and program execution efficiency.
Li Zhuang doesn¡¯t like PLC now. The embedded control module programs he designs for factories in his circle are all described in vhdl or c language, and assembly is often used. It¡¯s not because he likes it, but because he wants to save money. He felt as if he had a talent. The difficult compilation was like a family member to him. After reading it for less than a month, he became very proficient.
"nnd, is Brother Fei a robot? Why do you like compilation so much?" Li Zhuang didn't know why this happened. He could only explain it as talent and preference. Programs written in assembly are very efficient in execution and very concise, but one big weakness is that they have extremely poor portability, so Li Zhuang, who likes to be lazy, will only use them in small situations where efficient execution is needed.
There are many computer languages, dozens of them, but there are not many commonly used languages ??related to artificial intelligence. Lisp, prolog, and smalltalk are the focus of his analysis. Li Zhuang is familiar with C++, but he doesn¡¯t like it very much. He thinks it is too complicated and has loopholes. A lot.
The goal of the new language is excellent cross-platform portability. He has already thought of a name, called vai, which is a virtual artificial intelligence language. After VAI is perfected, it will be used to write the operating system of artificial neural network computers to meet the complex interconnection between various modules.
Summarizing the strengths and weaknesses of various languages, then raising them to a theoretical level and redesigning a framework is an idea he has considered before. If you follow other people's ideas, you will easily be limited by the overall architecture design. At most, you will be considered a senior repairman and will not achieve outstanding achievements. Even if humans train using the most scientific methods, they will never be stronger than adult elephants.
Li Zhuang doesn¡¯t like to write large databases. He thinks it¡¯s easy to have loopholes and is very time-consuming. The databases he designs are basically not large, and have the same characteristics as before, small and efficient, focusing on the data management model. He has studied the commonly used database languages ????such as SQL, Sybase, Oracle, etc., but rarely mixes his own private research into the outsourced software he undertakes.
As for the von Neumann computer system, Li Zhuang plans to use software to improve the level of intelligence as much as possible. The chess-playing examination system has too little room for expansion and is of low practicality.
"Does something that can only exist in the laboratory make sense? At most, I can make a fool-proof drone for fun." Li Zhuang doesn't buy into the media's propaganda. What he wants to do is to make a fake drone that can be directly used on the automated system. Artificial intelligence, not boring tools that only play so-called IQ games. Of course, he knew the habits of the Yankees. Although they liked to show off, they were very insidious. Everything they put out lagged behind the research progress. Although this happened everywhere, only the Yankees liked to show off so much.
The plan started in the third year after arriving in Hangzhou. Li Zhuang was promoted to supervisor. He was relatively free and had a good relationship with Director Yang. His time arrangement was much easier. The nickname "Senior Repairman" is not for nothing. In order to get enough study time, he brought several apprentices to the factory for free, who could help him maintain the equipment. If there was a big problem, he would work overtime overnight to fix it. Director Yang was very satisfied with this, so he no longer cared about him always running away.
With the gradual completion of various language parsing, Li Zhuang began to feel confident. His level of computational mathematics was gradually improving, and his research on data structures and algorithms became more and more in-depth.
¡°Putting what you learn into practice¡± is the principle that Li Zhuang believes in. After his level improved, he improved the control software of the company's equipment many times. Some of the software he thought was terrible simply rewrote the entire software and modified the equipment, which improved production efficiency and significantly reduced the failure rate. Chairman Yang was greatly surprised. , the year-end red envelopes are getting better every yearWhen you are older, your salary basically needs to be increased every few months.
With a high income, there are a lot of girls, but unfortunately most of them are dinosaurs. How can people like Li Zhuang like them? Li Zhuang didn't know what Zhao Qinyin was thinking at the time. Maybe it was because she broke the Jetta that she thought highly of herself. After all, not many people at the age of 25 could buy a car based on their own ability, let alone an orphan who came up from the bottom of the labor force. Guys, you still have to pay for your sister¡¯s expenses.
Li Zhuang shook his head habitually to put away all kinds of distracting thoughts. The Elta matter cost him a lot of energy, but what he got was far away. The rewards are not without, the alien¡¯s super travel notes plus the exotic jade ball.
"Hey, can anyone get this kind of rare item? Even if the Imperial Green is a scumbag in front of it, it only cost me tens of thousands of yuan. It's a great deal." Li Zhuang comforted himself after being disappointed. You can't say he's wrong. The jade ball is good for practicing martial arts. Although there are similar items that can be used for concentration, it's estimated that you can't buy them for tens of thousands of dollars.
Since Elta is gone, we can¡¯t find him out and beat him up. If he can be found out, Li Zhuang feels that he is also a god-level figure.
"An interesting adventure, it can be used as a family heirloom. The one my mother gave me is too low." Li Zhuang told the truth.
Guys who like to talk to themselves can make people feel very scary. Li Zhuang is self-aware. He just wants to relieve the pressure of long-term research alone. Four years of continuous research is not something ordinary people can do. More than 14 hours of high-intensity mental work every day makes him look a bit mature.
With Alta¡¯s affairs over, apart from waiting for the titanium alloy necklace from the jewelry store, Li Zhuang continued to improve the already prototyped vai language.
In early April, the spring was bright and sunny, neither cold nor hot, and Li Zhuang unexpectedly received a call from his master Liang Can. He and Liang Can had met once in ten years. Liang Can was very busy, and so was he, but they kept in touch by email. Most of the phone calls were from Taiwan because it was cheaper there. Li Zhuang basically sends some gifts every year, mainly to his master's wife and his junior brothers and sisters.
"Azhuang, our family is traveling to Hangzhou the day after tomorrow. Are you free?"
"Yes, I'm free even if I don't have time. I'm free now. I don't have a fixed job. I'm welcome at any time." Li Zhuang was a little happy. He really wanted to see Liang Can. Master is different from other people. The trouble with staying in this corner of Hangzhou is that there are many people coming to visit and socializing frequently. Fortunately, Li Zhuang doesn't have many friends and only receives them six or seven times a year.
Li Zhuang hung up the phone, looking forward to it. Liang Can has a son and a daughter. The daughter is the eldest, named Liang Sihan, and the son is named Liang Siming. Li Zhuang didn't know what he meant by naming him like this, but he thought it was a bit weird. He once jokingly asked him if his first love's name contained these two characters.
He just took it for granted because he had encountered disgusting precedents before. At that time, he felt that there were really all kinds of people in this world. Unexpectedly, Liang Can was surprised on the phone and asked Li Zhuang how he knew. These words made Li Zhuang feel dizzy, but the real reason was very common and can be seen in society. Liang Can's wife is his first love's sister, whom he knew very well before. He married her sister after his first love had a car accident.
Li Zhuang read a report a few years ago, saying that the number of car accidents and drowning deaths in mainland China every year is more than 100,000. No matter when, it will not be wrong to add 20% to 100% to the official bad records. His older brother was one of tens of thousands of children who drowned every year.
In addition to his family, Liang Can¡¯s tour group also includes five friends. Li Zhuang saw him from afar and was a little surprised. Master used to be a handsome guy, how come he has become Maitreya Buddha now? The face that was originally thin is now plump. Even at the same height of 1.77 meters, he still can't pull his fat body into a slim shape. His nose is red. Have you been drinking frequently in the past few years?
"Master, I'm here." Li Zhuang stayed at a hotel by the lake, which he had made an appointment with Liang Can. The specialties here were of a very high standard.
"Come on, Azhuang, let me introduce you to him." Liang Can was very enthusiastic.
Li Zhuang has met Liang Can¡¯s family first. He has seen photos and knows their names, but he has never met them face to face. Mrs. Liang, Mrs. Liang, is a kind, middle-aged woman, fair and slightly plump.
Liang Sihan is a delicate and slender girl with an oval face and a ponytail. She is 19 years old this year. Li Zhuang made a visual inspection and found that it was about 1.65 meters tall. His junior brother Liang Siming, whom he called several times, is still in junior high school. He seems to be in the third year of junior high here in mainland China. He is not tall and is growing taller.
"Azhuang, do you still know me?" A middle-aged bald man greeted him.
Li Zhuang took a closer look and said, "Hey, it's Boss Wang. I remember, hello, hello." Wang Shuangcheng, the technical manager, had covered Li Zhuang at the motherboard factory for half a year. Li Zhuang would never forget this strong and old-fashioned person, and besides, he had a very good memory.
The people next to me were happy when they heard it.
? ???A Cheng, why did he call you Boss Wang? "Liang Can was a little curious. This was what he called him after he left. He used to be very polite.
"I'm used to him screaming. Besides, don't you think this title is very imposing?" Wang Shuangcheng was a little embarrassed but did not forget to explain.
When everyone heard this, they were dumbfounded. Wang Shuangcheng was always very serious, but he could also be childish at times.
"Ah Shuang, this is a rising star in the automation industry. My apprentice. I used to ask you for advice for him. You can communicate with me when you have time." Liang Can introduced his friend Cai Shuang to Li Zhuang, who works at an automation research institute.
The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Liang Can introduced the other people who came with him.
After a lively lunch, Lizhuang paid the bill, and then everyone went to visit the West Lake where Lizhuang was tired of visiting. Liang Sihan didn't talk much, but Li Zhuang and Liang Siming, the chubby little guy, had a great time chatting.
The West Lake scenic area is very large. After walking for an hour, we found a pavilion to rest.
"Azhuang, you spent a lot of money today. Why are prices so high in mainland China now?" Liang Can asked.
"It's not caused by random issuance of banknotes. Everyone knows this." Someone next to him took over. It was Mr. Mei, whom Li Zhuang had just met. According to Liang Can, he was a university teacher.
When Mr. Mei saw everyone staring at him, he explained: "Economics issues are very complex, and it is difficult to say who is right and who is wrong, but the reality cannot be concealed."
"From 1944 to this year, the U.S. dollar has depreciated nearly eight times. The actual number is estimated to be known only to the Federal Reserve. The depreciation of banknotes in other countries does not correspond. Many chaotic countries use the depreciation of the U.S. dollar as an excuse to issue banknotes indiscriminately. Making inflation more serious. Abandoning the gold standard is a last resort, because the mining volume of gold cannot keep up with the development of the economy, and the distribution of reserves is uneven. But in any case, inflation is not just a monetary phenomenon."
All the technicians here looked at him in confusion. Mr. Mei was helpless. Knowing that these people couldn't understand, he changed to a simpler explanation.
"Everyone knows that ordinary people like gold more than paper money. Paper money is worthless and is a pure national credit. But why do big forces push paper money?"
"Economic development and gold reserves are both excuses. Although this excuse is very powerful, you only need to look at who will benefit. The inflation in these decades has been more violent than in previous centuries. Those who like paper money most are the ruling forces. And those who play finance, ordinary people have to work and cannot keep an eye on their bank deposits all day long, but some people will keep an eye on this money, and their only job is to be thieves, or wrongly, big thieves."
¡°The monetary system is an extremely complex issue, and there is still no very complete theory. In fact, the theories in the economic field are all flawed, and no one can completely understand it.¡±
¡°Forget it, I won¡¯t tell you anymore, it¡¯s all in vain.¡± Mr. Mei has been studying this issue for nearly 20 years, and he still has a headache on this issue.
"Paper currency is a road of no return. It would be great if there would be enough gold sometime to return to the gold standard of the global system. Alas, so what if it is a gold standard? Who can tell whether it is right or wrong? In the final analysis, it is still It is human problems that make this uncomplicated issue extremely complicated.¡±
Listening to Mr. Mei¡¯s soliloquy, Li Zhuang¡¯s heart moved. He has been worried about his savings over the years. He does not have enough money to buy a house. As a foreigner and with low education, it is not easy to get a loan. Besides, he does not want to get a loan.
"I like gold!" Li Zhuang made no secret of his desire for money. Of course, he only talked about it in his heart and occasionally chatted with a few friends.
He has read articles about gold and the monetary system. Although he doesn¡¯t know much about it, he knows that the amount of gold mining and the distribution of reserves are important reasons for the collapse of the gold standard. After the collapse of the gold standard, hyperinflation became a very common phenomenon. In some countries, it was so serious that all the money in people's pockets was turned into waste paper. Financial crises occurred one after another, and those financial giants stirred up troubles in it. hateful.
The tour lasted for two days. Before leaving, Liang Can asked about Li Zhuang's current situation in the hotel. Although he knew everything about it, he was still very concerned about Li Zhuang's personal problems.
"Azhuang, why aren't you married yet?"
"Oh, Master, I don't have a house. Besides, you know that I need money to do research, and it's not just a little money. It's more than the cost of a house. How about you fund me with a ton of gold. I like gold best, and the Taiwan dollar is No more." Li Zhuang and Liang Can joked casually.
Liang Can laughed loudly and said: "If I had a ton of gold, I would change my place to live immediately. There have been frequent earthquakes in Taiwan in the past few years, and I am a little scared. But to be honest, you are not a young man. It is time to get married. How about I marry your junior sister?" you?"
Li Zhuang knew he was joking. He was a very sensitive person and knew that Liang Sihan could not fall in love with someone like him, who had almost nothing. Besides, the regional issue is very serious. This college student might be a bit discriminatory against the mainland. You can feel it from the words she occasionally opens her mouth.
¡°If you have time to travel to Taiwan, it¡¯s best to come early, otherwise I¡¯ll worry about whether Sun Moon Lake is still there.¡± Liang Can said.
"Oh, I see."
Li Zhuang waved goodbye to the tour group, and then returned to his residence to continue his research. This thing is so difficult.
