Volume 5 Destiny Chapter 3 Changed Beyond Recognition

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Li Zhuang is very nostalgic. This habit is not good or bad, but it does bring a lot of trouble to the Artificial Intelligence Research Institute.

    Affected by different language systems and customary names, the names of units within the Artificial Intelligence Research Institute are diverse and do not completely correspond to their formal translations. Therefore, outsiders are often confused and think it is a smoke bomb.  This confusion is actually very simple and has historical reasons, because Wesson Technology has gone through many adjustments and its members are complex.  The chaos lasted for thirty years, until Li Zhuang officially retired at the age of 72 and no longer held any position in the institute.

    Guster took over as the second dean.  The first thing the new dean did when he took office was to cancel the name of the Institute of Artificial Intelligence. The "Department of Computer Science" changed from a customary name to a formal name to adapt to the changes of the times.  In the company's organizational structure files, there are eight formal institutions described in Chinese by the Department of Computer Science, namely, the Intelligent Machine Research Institute, the Biocomputer Research Institute, the Photonic Computer Research Institute, the Quantum Computer Research Institute, the Intelligent Life Research Institute, the Robotics Research Institute, and the Automation Research Institute.  Research Institute and Components Research Institute.  According to the progress of theoretical research, research on photons and quantum computers has been strengthened to obtain sufficient technical reserves and reduce the consumption of funds.

    The internal management is not based on the research institute. According to the difference in research direction and confidentiality level, the researchers are divided into four groups: cutting-edge group, basic group, application group and confidentiality group. Each laboratory is generally equipped with three supervisors.  True and false.  Affiliated factories are also connected according to four groups, and they only communicate with each other at the department level system. The director's main responsibility is to coordinate different project groups and jointly manage departments, so there are very few people who fully understand the true face of the huge computer science department.  .

    The computer field is extremely complex. As far as AI is concerned, models derived from the same architecture have differences due to different emphases and components used. Integrated chips and non-integrated chips have different uses, and technological advancements bring about energy consumption and response speed.  The difference is only one aspect.  Every detail needs to be verified, and verification requires money. It cannot be achieved by simple simulation. It is subject to technological progress and design ideas in the optoelectronics industry, as well as bionics and computational mathematics research.

    Intelligent machine research is temporarily at a deadlock, biological computers and photonic computers are booming, quantum computer research is progressing step by step, hybrid chip research has been greatly strengthened, and the robotics research institute and the automation research institute are expected to grow.  From a macro perspective, each generation is getting better and better, which is fine and should be done. However, for senior researchers, this is full of pressure.  Two old deans, Li Zhuang and Thomas, have retired and only study the fields they like.  The turnover within the Department of Computer Science is very rapid, and many old researchers have been forced to reduce the scope of their research or become application engineers.

    "Compared with engineers who often break their legs and use their hands, most people prefer to be "scientists" who are easy to become famous and relaxed, and come up with all kinds of weird theories frequently.  Thomas has little interest in these new theories. The new technologies of automation and ultra-precision machining that he likes can all find a frame of reference.  However, Li Zhuang deviated from his initial research direction and concentrated on theoretical research, even abandoning many alternative hobbies, including processing.  His eccentric hobby lasted so long and was finally given up, much to the relief of his friends.

    Li Zhuang of the Department of Computer Science has always called it the "Institute of Artificial Intelligence" instead of the "Department of Computer Science" like others.  Lisa once ridiculed his stubbornness, but Li Zhuang was not angry. His son Wei Jiang could understand it very well. When he was alive, he found that the institution he founded had changed beyond recognition, and it was inevitable to feel sad and reluctant.

    Mid- to high-end jobs in the computer field are brain-destroying. AI is the most complex and subtle research in this field. There are very few researchers who can reach the level of architects. Many top researchers, including Li Zhuang, cannot maintain good condition for a long time.  .  For it, Li Zhuang gave up many things, including emotional connections in his circle of friends.  His circle has never been large, and he has no time to socialize. He mainly communicates on the phone.  Everyone has their own way of living. Li Zhuang didn't feel anything was wrong, but he felt a little guilty for not having much time to spend with his wife.  His position also affects his family members, who often need security and cannot travel anywhere.

    In the first year after his retirement, Li Zhuang finally remembered to send flowers to his wife on Valentine's Day, but Lisa did not get the surprise she expected.

    "Tell me, what's the matter? I don't think you're the kind of person who knows what's going on." Lisa, who works as a nanny all day long, looked at her husband suspiciously.

    "I felt guilty for neglecting you before, so I bought flowers for you on this special day." Li Zhuang's eyes were full of tenderness, but the words in his mouth were as usual.

    "Guilt is not love. I hope you still remember my birthday." Lisa talked about emotional topics.

    Without saying a word, Li Zhuang picked up the flowers and threw them into the trash can, then walked straight out.

    Lisa looked at his back and sat there blanklyOn the sofa in the living room, there were tears in his eyes.  Her husband is becoming more and more withdrawn, and she is gradually unable to understand his heart. Is it true that the two of them will get divorced as they say outside?  The company as a large group no longer relies on a family of two. The children are older and will not have any impact on them.  Are the cold ¡°robots¡± that outsiders call them completely incapable of feeling love?

    The topic of the divorce date between Li Zhuang and Lisa has been discussed by many busybodies, but there has been no result.  Whether Li Zhuang realizes that his behavior is a bit excessive, whether Lisa has resentment in her heart, no one can understand the psychology of both parties.  They have always been a special pair. They have different hobbies but rarely quarrel.

    ¡°I am his tool for having children, this damn ¡®robot¡¯!¡± The more Lisa thought about it, the angrier she became. She picked up the vase on the table and smashed it to pieces.

    "Beep" The nearby home service robot honked its horn softly, and then began to busy cleaning the floor of the living room, repairing the affected parts of the floor.

    Seeing the robot, Lisa's heart suddenly became calmer, and she felt a sense of enlightenment.  Although the male owner of this family is often absent, his care and consideration are always with his family members, and he cares about his family, as evidenced by various equipment.

    "Bah! These are all designed by him to make money and be lazy, not for the family." The hostess continued her anger alone, picked up the cushion and twisted it hard. The robot next to her looked at it stupidly, not knowing what to do.  .

    "What are you doing? Here, the second bouquet of flowers, I just bought them, greetings from my husband!" Li Zhuang's voice suddenly came out, Lisa was startled, and then she couldn't laugh or cry.

    "You left without saying a word. I thought you were angry, but I didn't expect you to buy flowers again. What a weirdo!"

    Li Zhuang touched his nose, and then said seriously: "How about it? Do you like it? If you don't like it, I will buy it again."

    Lisa rolled her eyes speechlessly, took the purple tulips, and put them into the vase on the side.

    Li Zhuang suddenly let out a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately you accepted it, otherwise I would have had to do immoral things in the garden, and now my pocket is quite thin."

    Lisa was dumbfounded and a little surprised at the same time. Her own income was good, and the husband and wife were responsible for their own accounts, but when Li Zhuang said he had no money when he was old, it seemed like a fantasy.

    "Why do you have no money? Cards can be swiped everywhere in Wesson City, even in small stores. It doesn't matter if you lied to me, but it's wrong to lie to the children. Your family mutual fund is not a cover, is it?"

    "Oh, this is called idealism that kills people! All the money I made before has been lost, and I also borrowed some debts for the research and development of the 1000m-class No. 2 machine." Li Zhuang said that he was also a little embarrassed. At his peak, he was  The richest man on earth has not raised any dividends for many years, and the finance department has become accustomed to it and never notified him.

    "Haha, your financial management skills are not good. Why don't you let the family mutual fund manage it? Sunway hired professionals. Xinyun is very good at making money."

    "No problem, I will inject all the money I earn into the family mutual fund. I can only get in and out in the future. I still have a lot of good guys in my hands. I will never worry about going bankrupt." Li Zhuang promised.

    Lisa didn¡¯t say anything else. The couple looked at each other for a moment, then turned to the topic of children, especially the third generation.

    The children are all married, and their careers and families are not bad.  Xin Ling, Wei He, Wei Hu and Xin Mo are the best among them. Xin Yun, Xin Chen and Wei Hai, who are studying liberal arts, are not mediocre in their respective fields and have not brought shame to their family.  Xiaowei and Xiaowei finally no longer give Li Zhuang a headache. They are now very mature.  Shuangwei is strong-willed, has found his place, and maintained the dignity of his eldest brother.  Lao Wu Weijiang is diligent and dedicated to computer software. Although he may not reach the top, he can have his own place in the Department of Computer Science where elites gather.  There are still bonus points for family. At least if Xinle studied mathematics without the status of his father, it would be difficult to directly find the arrogant Dr. Garcia as a tutor. Apart from Durand, there are not many people who look up to that guy. He has strict requirements on the qualifications of his disciples and accepts them.  There are very few disciples.

    There are more children in the third generation. Li Zhuang¡¯s circle of friends includes people he has never been in contact with, and now they have some contact with him. In addition, there are also many children in the circle of friends, so several generations of management have married each other and formed a big family.  group, and this group has always been joined by high-quality talents.

    The children of the Li family love freely and control their own destiny. My father has only one request: Don¡¯t look for someone who is good for nothing. At least the other person has something to offer.  United Technologies has developed to this point and has become a spherical group with smooth channels for advancement, so cohesion has been increasing. There are no dandies here.  Children have a wide range of objects to choose from and will not be unable to find anything.?Suitable.  Few of these children behave exactly the same when they are young and when they grow up. It seems that the influence of environment on personality goes beyond genes.

    "If you act like you did before, I'm really worried about whether you recognize all the third-generation children. There are quite a few of them." Lisa interrupted Li Zhuang's verbosity about technology. Although she had long been accustomed to her husband thinking about technical issues at every turn,  The speaking style is very distinctive.

    "Haha, that's not the case. Most of the children are looking for children in my circle, and they all know each other. Besides, although I am old, my memory is not bad, and the etiquette is always up to the mark."

    "Haha, you think you are still the 'robot' you were before. You are old and your memory is not as good as before. You made a joke last time. Fortunately, others didn't care." Lisa mentioned the story three years ago, which was really embarrassing at the time.

    This guy is old, but he still refuses to accept it. He always likes to guess people¡¯s identities to prove his good memory.  When Eleven Weihai brought his girlfriend to the door, Li Zhuang guessed five times but couldn't get it right.  The granddaughter of Sean Roberts, the former president of the Education Group, and the daughter of Dr. Anderson, the deputy director of ASA.  The female guest was very embarrassed. If she hadn't thought more clearly, she would have thought that her future father-in-law was deliberately teasing her. This guy's good memory is very famous within the company.  Fortunately, Lisa put an end to the game he thought he could play as an elder and asked the female guest to reveal her family name. It turned out to be Layla, the daughter of Dr. Adler, the current director of the Institute of Finance.

    The Institute of Finance of the Academy of Social Sciences was a department that Li Zhuang was very familiar with before, but he stopped paying attention to it after the company stabilized. Vicky stopped being a fund manager a long time ago.  After so many years of development, the personnel of the Institute of Finance has long since changed beyond recognition.  In fact, most departments within the company have changed their managers. The Weizhou system, including the local government, has had two changes, and they are basically strangers.  Only two members of the first generation of high-level joint conferences are still on the job. Now is the period when a group of people who grew up in the state are in power. Among those born in the state, the oldest ones are over thirty.

    "Your period has passed. Don't be dissatisfied. You don't know many of the current middle- and high-level managers. This is the price of focusing on technology. The chairman has become a decoration!"

    "Haha, they just need me as a decoration. Even if they become unrecognizable, the elders of this group of people still know me, and the management still knows me. We each get what we need. No other lone ranger can do this.  To some extent." Li Zhuang smiled and didn't care.

    "Oh, don't you feel it? You, the chairman who has become a decoration, will soon be no longer needed by them!" Lisa continued to attack her husband.

    "Of course I do, I have been looking forward to this day. When I chose this management model, I knew it would be a matter of time! Everyone's pursuit is different, and there will be gains and losses!" Li Zhuang looked indifferent.

    Is this really the case?
