- The media loves fresh topics because it makes them money. Whenever something big happens, people working in this industry are the ones who fly most frequently. Compared with the manufacturing industry, the service industry requires less investment and is less affected by the crisis. At worst, it will close down and start again.
This financial crisis is fueled by the automation and financial circles, and the situation is extremely complicated, not to mention the fierce war of words between China and Citigroup. The media's follow-up was very timely, and Li Zhuang always found the news he needed effortlessly.
Washington wishes it had the power to double up. The financial crisis, employment and diplomacy now occupy all the energy of the Presidential Office. They are all major events, and there is no time to take care of other things. Even the adjustment of United Technologies, which is not dealt with very much, is too lazy to ask the Navy to intimidate. one time.
Super-light spacecraft has always been a dream of mankind. The Citi Air Force has announced that it will build a hyperdrive engine more than ten years ago. The scientific and technological community thought it was just talk, but they did not expect that these people would actually dare to do it. The Air Force has a Space Command, which is powerful, but the hyperdrive is difficult to test on Earth and can only go to space.
The test was not a problem. NASA's aerospace plane was idle and the Ares V rocket was not on launch missions. However, the Citizen Air Force acted unkindly and took the lead in the test on its own. This made NASA furious.
The computer expert watched the news while eating. In the end, he couldn't help laughing. His curse was very effective. The relationship between NASA and the Air Force has always been bad. In important projects such as Star Wars and NMD, the two sides fought fiercely. With the deepening of various researches, especially the development of intelligent robots, NASA's power has been restored. Besides, they have never been afraid of the increasingly domineering Air Force. Both sides refuse to give in, and now they have reached the presidential palace, leaving the poor president with no place to hide. He was already busy enough and couldn't be any busier.
"Why are you laughing? What's so funny about this kind of thing? You're just gloating about your misfortune, you're such a weirdo," Lisa couldn't help but say.
"I'm normal and not weird. If I were a weirdo, there are weirdos everywhere in the company, such as Zhou Qisen and Baker," Li Zhuang retorted.
"How can Zhou Qisen be a weirdo? But I think Baker is indeed a little weird," Lisa came up with a compromise.
"Haha, I'm not the only one who says Zhou Qisen is a weirdo. Baker also said he was weird and said he was normal," Li Zhuang said with a smile.
"Ignore you, hey, Xiaowei, don't bite the chopsticks, what's wrong with this kid," Lisa stood up to regulate her son's behavior. Everyone in Li Zhuang's house uses chopsticks, including Da Mian and Sophia. The reason is that the company's research says that this can reduce the incidence of Alzheimer's disease. As for other effects, it has not yet been confirmed.
Several children made a fuss, and even the little girl over one year old nearby took a fork and stabbed it in the bowl. The computer expert had no choice but to stop laughing and start fulfilling the responsibilities of a father.
This meal was a bustling meal. Sophia and Da Mian went to Port Hedland to visit relatives. There were only two adults left in the family, which made Li Zhuang, who usually didn't care about the children, in a hurry.
"How about designing a nanny robot? This is too difficult and a bit troublesome. Compared with laziness, it is not cost-effective and has serious side effects."
After the meal, the family went out for a walk to eat. Li Zhuang chatted with Lisa wordlessly, but in his mind he thought of the weird Baker mentioned during the meal.
Robert Baker, from Citi, is of course an Australian now and is the director of the Institute of Applied Physics of United Technologies Corporation. This guy is about 1.8 meters tall, which is not very tall for white people. He has a long and thin face, long hair, and quite an ape-like appearance, so he is nicknamed "Ape Man". However, he has a very bright mind, and he always wears a middle-parted hair that makes people speechless.
Among the three ways for researchers to join the company, Baker is the proactive one. He joined the company at the end of April last year. Within a month of joining, he made Ren Mingmei the vice president, and the latter voluntarily abdicated in favor of someone better.
Baker¡¯s hobbies are very eccentric and he likes to take exams. He has three doctoral degrees and eight master¡¯s degrees. He is only thirty-seven this year. He is the person with the most degrees among the millions of researchers at United Technologies Corporation.
The Institute of Applied Physics is the largest research institute of Weisen Technology. Even though some personnel have been transferred to Weilin Technology, there are now 50,000 senior researchers and nearly 70,000 including factories affiliated with the institute. However, there is no Baker in the research field. raw.
The so-called wai does not have a physical factory. Its factory is an affiliated factory of the Institute of Applied Physics and the Institute of Artificial Intelligence, and its products are provided by the two institutes.
The Institute of Applied Physics currently has eight subordinate R&D units, including the Laser Engineering Research Institute, the Communications Engineering Research Institute, the Computer Hardware Research Institute, the Precision Optics Research Institute, the Semiconductor Research Institute, the Electrical and Electrical Research Institute, the Instrument Research Institute and the Acoustics Research Institute.
Baker is a member of the Joint Conference of Seventy-seven, and his family is here.He has never left Western Australia since arriving. The place where the family goes most often is the town of Broome, where they have a villa. Near Wesson is Broome County and the Kimberley Plateau, with many places suitable for sightseeing. This guy belongs to a small group of people on the planet who can take it all, and he has managed the vast Institute of Applied Physics in an orderly manner.
Even Canberra knows that Baker is just one of the well-known eccentrics of United Technologies Corporation, and Dr. Milon Taylor, the director of the Military Industrial Research Institute, is also not normal. This guy is in his early forties and is simply fanatical about advanced weapons. He kept his bald head all year round and was nicknamed "Monk" after arriving here. This guy believes in Tibetan Buddhism, but likes hunting, and his marksmanship is comparable to that of a sniper.
With the improvement of infrastructure construction in Sunway and other four cities, there is no need to rely on high salaries to attract talents. After the passage of the "Wesson Act", more and more top researchers came to visit, which put a lot of pressure on the old researchers. People often applied to be transferred to Weilin Technology to be responsible for technology transformation.
Among the 19 research institutes of Wesson Technology, the only Chinese researchers who have remained firmly in the position of president are Sun Guobao and Li Zhuang. Almost all other research institutes have been wiped out, but few people call Li Zhuang "the institute". "Long" because of his special status.
Compared with Pi Ruoshui, Tang Chenggong¡¯s resilience and perseverance are countless times stronger. The Precision Machining Research Institute currently has no official director, and Tang Chenggong is the acting director. Precision machining is not Hua Xia's strong point. After Tang Chenggong arrived in Australia, he did not only work but also recharge every day. He had to outdo his deputy and secure the position of dean. Even Thomas became the target of his advice.
The national treasure gave him the nickname "Heavy Metal Slime" to praise his super resistance to blows and to ridicule his dirty and sticky clothes all day long. Tang Chenggong claimed that he would change other ethnic groups¡¯ impressions of the Chinese, but this highly political vow was directly ignored by Chinese researchers.
He Xiuwen quit his part-time job as the dean of the Energy Research Institute and became the technical vice president in charge of research and development, coordinating increasingly complex cross-research with Wu Wg, director of the Joint Dispatch Center. This guy's nickname "Bookworm" is well-deserved. Although Xavier and Yamamoto and others have three doctorates, they are not like him who can read and understand everything. Even with cutting-edge research projects, he can tell the truth. It's not easy to fool him.
Zhou Qisen doesn¡¯t have the energy to take care of the Nanotechnology Research Institute now, but he often visits the institute when he is free. He went to UWA to study management. Needless to say, this guy's academic level is beyond the scope of ordinary people. He is expected to receive a second advanced diploma soon.
In view of Zhou Qisen¡¯s actual status at United Technologies, the Chinese employees gave him the nickname ¡°President¡±, and others later followed suit. Although "president" is the same word as "president" in English, this guy still found it strange, so he asked the internal staff to call him "Dr. Zhou" uniformly, and no specialization was allowed. Everyone ridiculed him for being self-serving, and he felt wronged because Dr. So-and-so was the most commonly used title within the company.
Baker and Zhou Qisen are friends and have close contact with each other. Zhou Qisen said that he was abnormal, but Baker had the opposite opinion, saying that Zhou Qisen was abnormal.
There are many abnormal people, such as Li Zhuang, the nominal boss of United Technologies Corporation. Although he is the largest shareholder, he is rarely seen in person. The most familiar people in the company are Zhou Qisen and Da Mian. If the media hadn't often mentioned Li Zhuang, ordinary Australians would have thought that Zhou Qisen was the top figure at United Technologies.
Old employees believe that Chairman Li, a weirdo, is the culprit behind so many weirdos in the company. Birds of a feather flock together. People like "Angel" Harris can probably live a leisurely life only at United Technologies.
The buzzword joked within the company is "normal and abnormal". Everyone thinks they are normal, and no one thinks they are abnormal. Even "Devil" Simpson and "Kung Fu Panda" Sun Guobao think they are normal, and "Angel" never feels that they are normal. Not normal myself.
The thinking outside is that "United Technologies is a collection of weirdos led by a group of weirdos, with few normal people." This statement came from an Australian media and was later widely quoted.
Thinking of this, Li Zhuang couldn't help but ask Lisa, "Am I really a weirdo? Why do I feel like I'm normal."
Lisa pursed her lips and smiled, "The nickname 'Robot' fits your behavior pattern very well, which is something ordinary people can't do. Do you think you are normal? Even people like the Swabian brothers can't follow You compare because they are normal than you, not because you are smarter than them.¡±
Li Zhuang was speechless. If he reasoned like this, he was indeed abnormal, but if he followed a normal life style, Vicky-level would probably not be around yet. There is a saying in China that "those who can achieve great things must be extraordinary", and there is also a saying abroad that "only the paranoid can survive".In terms of philosophy, few of the top experts in the computer industry are normal.
"Robot" is the nickname given by Zhang Kai. The computer expert did not feel dissatisfied and often felt smug. He once said such things as "Only robots can understand robots." Unexpectedly, the nickname "Robot" became synonymous with "weird".
After a routine exchange with his smart home in the evening, Li Zhuang called Guobao and asked about the biological humanoid robot. This is the main work of the Second Human Gene Research Institute. The last time he went to see it, it was close to success.
"The official robot will be released next month. The body strengthening fluid we developed is very successful. In the future, we can create more powerful combat robots," was the reply there.
¡°What about other types of biological robots?¡±
"You have to ask Simpson or Zaitsev about this. I don't know. I will move to the Institute of Biotechnology at the end of the year. You have to ask the human resources department to step up the recruitment of better people."
"What should we do with artificial zombies?" Li Zhuang mentioned another study on the national treasure.
"This is no problem. There are experts at the Medical Research Institute. Besides, the current technology is very complete and there is not much room for improvement. Alas, nnd, I used to do experiments on others, but I didn't expect that this time I became the guinea pig. I'm depressed. !¡±
The two of them hung up the phone without saying a few words. When Lisa heard Li Zhuang mention artificial zigzag, she smiled and said, "How about we join in? It's very lively with so many children."
"Really?" Li Zhuang was a little moved, but the answer he got was, "False, I have discovered that you have signs of this a long time ago. Don't even think about it, God will be angry."
The computer expert was a little dizzy and said to the devout Christian: "You are a weirdo!"
Are there any normal people in our world? Maybe everyone is a weirdo, although few think they are abnormal. People who realize that they are abnormal are actually abnormal themselves, and may have a tendency to have a split personality.
