    Li Zhuang felt very distressed when he saw the old man who was dragged back and had changed beyond recognition.  This is his first car. Although it is not beautiful, it has been used for many years and is very sentimental.  When he first bought a car, he bought a Jetta without thinking about it. It was not very sturdy, after all, it was an old design from many years ago, but it was durable and easy to maintain. It was just the little donkey he needed.

    Went to the repair shop for evaluation and they suggested scrapping it as it would not be cost-effective to repair it.  Li Zhuang had no choice but to apply for scrapping and watched the tow truck take away the old man. He stood at the door and felt as if he had lost a relative.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????:  He traveled a lot now and couldn't live without a car. Fortunately, Xia Yuande's Passat was still in good condition, so he ignored what he said before and took it over as a new mount.

    The incident about the little beauty greatly stimulated Li Zhuang. During this period, she called and apologized. Li Zhuang's attitude was very cold, and the two had no contact after that.  As for the university, Li Zhuang doesn't need to go now. No one can answer his questions.

    At the beginning of June, Li Zhuang went back to his hometown because of work issues.

    Director Yang¡¯s investment was quickly received, and the construction speed of light steel structure factories is not comparable to that of frame structures.  The equipment was all newly purchased, and 20 lines were purchased at one time. The management staff were transferred from the old factory, and ordinary workers were recruited from the local area.  The person in charge of production and technology here is Lu Xian, an old acquaintance of Li Zhuang, the general manager is the vice president of Hangcheng General Factory, and sales are still managed by Xia Yuande.

    The ERP system was provided by a well-known company, but after purchasing the product, Li Zhuang unlocked the source code and made some modifications to the entire system to adapt to the new management model.  His changes were very successful. Everyone felt that it was much more convenient to use than before, and data management and encryption were also improved by more than one level.

    New workers need training. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Zhuang led a group of technicians to modify the equipment.  Perhaps due to his study of the underlying hardware during this period, his technical level has obviously improved a lot, the wiring is more reasonable, and the compatibility of the production management system is higher.  With more and more parameters that can be controlled, data redundancy is always maintained at an appropriate level, and improvements in distributed parallel computing make workshop management easier.

    Lu Xian has made rapid progress during this period, and Li Zhuang¡¯s requirements are very demanding.  Lu Xian still maintained enough respect for his former master and did not feel complacent or arrogant because he became the second-in-command of such a large factory.

    Looking at Li Zhuang¡¯s somewhat mature face, he remembered the past stories.  Thinking back to the beginning, if Li Zhuang had agreed, the company's current management structure might be completely different, although he also felt that the boss's eldest daughter was not suitable for Li Zhuang.

    After nearly a year of running-in, the workshop management and technical staff are very familiar with Lizhuang¡¯s system. Lizhuang¡¯s upgrade is very linear and there are no major changes to the operating mode.  This modification was very efficient. It only took a month to install so much equipment.

    During this month, old classmate Xiao Xin came many times, and the two kept in touch after the class reunion.  Xiao Xin works in a steel factory near the provincial capital. Li Zhuang admires his knowledge of materials. He is very solid and there are many talents in state-owned enterprises. Xiao Xin is amazed by Li Zhuang's superb level of automation. He knows that even if  Even if I study for another twenty years, I may not be able to reach Li Zhuang's current level.

    When he was in high school, Xiao Xin and Li Zhuang had a very good relationship because they had similar personalities and were in the same row. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they were very close friends.  It was only later that the two of them became far apart, Li Zhuang was in a bad mood, Xiao Xin was busy studying, and communication was not convenient, so the contact was cut off.

    This time the two met again, mentioning the innocent and non-utilitarian relationship in the past, and thinking about the fierce battle within the unit now, Xiao Xin sighed for a while.  He asked about the entrepreneurial issue that Li Zhuang mentioned at the party: "Zhuangzi, is there any clue what you said last time? If it works, I plan to come over and work with you."

    Zhuangzi, one of Li Zhuang¡¯s nicknames in high school, was Muzi Zhuang. As for the nickname of ¡°Zhuangzi¡± he was looking forward to, it was obvious that others would not take advantage of him so easily.

    "Axin, do you want me to tell you the truth?" Li Zhuang asked.  Xiao Xinben has a hilarious nickname called "Girl". The reason is that this guy is not tall, very thin, soft-spoken, fair, and likes to wear red clothes. People often misunderstand that he is a  Girl.  Nowadays, no one dares to call it, so friends use the coastal name for reference.

    "You said, based on the relationship between us, there is nothing taboo," Xiao Xindao.  As once very good friends, the two of them knew each other very well.  In high school, there was basically no disguise. The meanings of some of the other's little moves are still fresh in the minds of both parties. This is something that is difficult to figure out after entering society.

    "I suggest you stay in your current unit first. We need a lot of help here.??'s high-quality steel products, and the steel industry is now regulated. I think if you can get up in the workplace, you will be of greater help to us.  When the time is right, you can come over and I will keep your share of the shares for you anyway," Li Zhuang said.

    "Okay, we can discuss the details later, but you have to help me with automation, so that I can be promoted faster."

    Communication between smart people is easy. Xiao Xin is not a newbie who has just entered the society. He has been married for a long time and his child will be born soon.  He knew that Li Zhuang must have concerns, but he was unwilling to lie to him.  This is how it should be among friends. You don't have to say anything and others won't blame you, but don't lie, otherwise the friendship will be easily ruined.

    "Xiao Xin is a very pure technician at heart. He wants to make some achievements, but the complicated personnel within the state-owned enterprise makes him uncomfortable.

    After the equipment modification of the new factory was completed, Li Zhuang conducted a full system test. The results were slightly better than expected, which may be related to the improvement of his technical level.  Declining Li Hui's invitation to go out for a few days, Li Zhuang set out for the provincial capital and visited Xiao Xin's home.

    The social life between the two parties was very simple. They are both technical people. After finishing the hasty matters, they started to work hard.  Xiao Xin's postgraduate degree in materials science was studied at a very high-level research institute in China. Until now, his current employer is a postgraduate student in automation at a local university.  He did not continue to study for a Ph.D., and his major in materials science was average.

    The two studied together and exchanged some opinions and ideas. Xiao Xin even took the risk to use the tools provided by Li Zhuang to download many experimental records of the group's research institute, and also used connections to take Li Zhuang to visit various workshops.  After the whole process, Li Zhuang had a very intuitive understanding of the production of the steel industry.  Xiao Xin himself works in the group's research institute. He is very familiar with some possible changes and countermeasures during the production process, equipment models and accuracy, material crystal structure, heat treatment, etc., and can provide detailed parameters to Lizhuang.

    It is easy to handle if you have parameters, understand the process, and it is not difficult for Li Zhuang to design a suitable model.  With Xiao Xin's help, he completed several of Xiao Xin's projects in just three days.  After the simulation test, Xiao Xin took it to the factory for verification and it was very successful.

    Li Zhuang asked him to complete it as quickly as possible based on the research progress of other colleagues, and not to rush for success.  Xiao Xin was not stupid. He knew the theory that genius can only be half a step ahead, so he readily agreed without hesitation.

    After the matter was completed, the two had a full exchange of views on their respective fields.  In the field of automation, Li Zhuang is already a super expert, and Xiao Xin has good grades in the field of materials science and has many ideas. After a few days of getting along, both parties have benefited a lot.

    Li Zhuang stayed at Xiao Xin¡¯s home for a week. After learning by phone from Lu Xian that everything in the new factory was operating normally for the time being, he took a plane back to Hangzhou.

    Back in Hangzhou, he continued to assemble the artificial neuron modules needed for lf3.  Next to the workbench, various optical and electrical components are neatly placed in different grids according to classification.  Da Mian's social circle was larger than he imagined, and he easily completed the tasks he assigned.

    Some of Xiao Xin¡¯s insights touched his sensitive nerves. It seems that there are many areas of overlap in all walks of life.  Simple artificial neural network computers can only be used to control production lines. They are just more advanced pseudo-intelligence. If you want to truly realize artificial intelligence, you have to take it step by step.

    The main module design of the six-level intelligent brain is a headache that Li Zhuang has been considering for three or four years. This is the center and needs to be considered carefully. The quality and type of components must be carefully considered.  No one knows what will happen once intelligence is produced. This kind of advanced intelligence has never appeared before. Maybe it exists in the laboratories of large companies.  According to his understanding, some large companies in Citi are also engaged in related research. Ordinary artificial neural network computers have long been used in the military, but because integration is difficult, the level has not been improved.

    Li Zhuang felt that the first thing to do in the design of the main module was to realize the combination of artificial neural units that simulate certain specific functions of the human brain. Based on the knowledge he learned about neuroscience and thinking science, he used complex switching circuits and notebook-specific low-power  The processor unit implements this function by combining different most basic small units into an independent module.  A small running subsystem is written for artificial neural network using vai2.0 language improved for it.  Regarding algorithms and data structures, he referred to genetic algorithms, artificial neural network algorithms and other artificial intelligence algorithms, coupled with his own understanding and improvement, optimized the underlying hardware he used, and carefully described it in vai language.

    Li Zhuang¡¯s clear ideas and solid foundation allowed the software to be written quickly. After the pressure test, everything was normal and met the design requirements.  His workmanship is also very good, the module combination is very delicate, and each solder joint and joint has been specially tested.

    The human brain has 10 to 15 billion neurons. Human beings are still at a relatively low level in developing their own brains. If they want toIt is completely impossible to completely imitate the human brain at the current level.

    What Li Zhuang wants to do is to imitate the thinking part and combine it with existing computer technology to achieve cross-mixing and produce preliminary artificial intelligence.  The human body may not be able to support the operation of all functions of the brain. Computers also have advantages over the human brain, such as the computing power and precision control of complex projects.  Again, if the material basis is different, we cannot copy it. Pure bionic design will not be successful in a lifetime.

    In his hardware system architecture, there are about 1 million low-level neuron small modules, which are combined into about 50,000 large modules. In addition to about a thousand notebook processors, the loss-prone parallel computing modules are independent.  Fortunately, there are many similar neurons. He bought special equipment from the electronics industry and ultra-precision equipment from the mechanical industry to form two micro-automatic assembly and testing production lines.  All he has to do is design the drawings and put the parts in place.

    Even so, according to his estimate, it will take at least half a year to complete the assembly and software writing of all modules and subsystems of a standard six-level intelligent brain.  He has been groping, not sure he can succeed at once, and he doesn't dare to complete it at once.  According to his design framework, the cost of level-6 intelligent brain-optical hardware and assembly and testing equipment exceeds 50 million. This is a huge sum of money, and he does not dare to take it lightly.  As for the cost of software, after so many years of hard work, it is at least equivalent to the cost of hardware and equipment.

    The number of artificial neurons in the level-6 intelligence brain is still not enough, and Li Zhuang is not confident that he can make it very versatile.  A six-level artificial neural network intelligence brain for partial scientific talents, this is his real goal.
