Extensive cross-licensing in the field of power lithium batteries has greatly improved the standards of the entire industry, and hybrid vehicles will become mainstream in a short time. A large number of pure electric vehicles have appeared in K City, mainly purchased by Wesson Technology employees. There are many high-income earners here.
Zhou Qisen has received a lot of salary and dividends in the past few years. He came to Li Zhuang and said that he wanted to buy a hybrid Bentley. Weisen Technology is now a large enterprise, and it cannot afford the S350. It is necessary to upgrade the president's car, so Li Zhuang asked the company to buy one without asking him to pay.
"Brother Qi" couldn't help being happy. After all, ten million is not a small amount. He often drives around in his spare time, feeling so proud that it makes people dumbfounded. Zhang Kai was itching to look at it and wanted to change his car. His target was a BMW 660i hybrid coupe. Li Zhuang also asked Wang Mei to reimburse him.
Others were indifferent. Not everyone was interested in cars. At least He Xiuwen felt very good about the S350. The park has sufficient design margins, but the giant parking lot on the three underground floors is still crowded with thousands of cars. "Little flies" from the provincial capital can be seen everywhere, just because they are cheap. There are not only small flies, but also big flies. Zwe8 produced by Zhongwang Automobile had a design flaw in the early stage. It would make a buzzing sound over time. Although it was solved in a short time, the nickname was retained.
At the end of May, the Legal Department received a letter from BMW¡¯s lawyers. The reason is simple. The 1.6 engine in Power Lab uses a continuously variable valve device similar to BMW vanos. After the full hybrid solution was adopted by a certain automobile company, the 1.6 engine became the object of market attention. The lawsuit was not easy to fight, so we could only grind it out slowly. Fortunately, it was successfully resolved in the end, and BMW was paid a one-time compensation of US$20 million and changed some designs.
"There are so many flies now, I can hardly stand it." Zhang Mingde complained at the management joint meeting. He is very busy now. There are lawsuits every month. Either others sue Wesson Technology, or Wesson Technology becomes Prosecutor.
After the "Grandma Incident" occurred in April, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Personnel conducted a trawl investigation and found more than 40 people at one time. As a result, the Ministry of Justice took more than a dozen companies to court, and even Washington became a defendant.
The overall level of higher education in Citi is among the top in the world. Wesson Technology is looking for top-notch people. Graduates from well-known universities in Citi have become priority candidates. Unexpectedly, Liu Shuaixiong¡¯s crow-mouthed words were right. Among these people, There are many contacts with overseas institutions. The legal department has expanded to a large team of nearly 300 people, all of whom are involved in lawsuits.
There is indeed a huge space in the field of energy and power. WLPs shipments have been growing slowly, while WLES is growing rapidly. The price is at the same level as high-quality products on the market, and the quality and stability are always slightly higher. Xuanming Battery and Chisheng Battery mainly produce high-end lithium polymer batteries, while all the technology of ordinary products is sold. These companies together form the periphery of Wesson Technology.
"Copycats are common among Chinese companies, and counterfeiting can be seen everywhere. The management of Wesson Technology is very worried, as if there are thousands of flies flying around, so they have to catch the big ones and let go of the small ones, and upgrade the anti-counterfeiting system.
Another big thing happened in June. The second country to launch ann computer was China. A private research institution led by two scientists has come up with a mature computer with a large module of 200,000 neurons. Its performance is better than that of the Germans. Its intelligence level is c1, but its application is slightly inferior and it can only be used for research for the time being.
Now that smartphone research is being treated as a political task, this result seems very sensitive, and the overwhelming publicity has almost flooded the Internet. This private research institution was immediately incorporated by Beijing, and the compensation given to investment institutions was very sufficient.
During the company management meeting, Zhou Qisen looked proud, "Our people are no worse than those in developed countries."
He Xiuwen immediately answered, "I remember someone said, 'I am now Australian, British, and Citizen, and I have no Chinese nationality'?"
Zhou Qisen snorted, "He Xiuwen, you are still a technician, why are you acting like a politician? Am I wrong? A country is a country, and a nation is a nation. Can I dig out my own roots if I immigrate?"
When it comes to fighting, He Xiuwen is no match for Zhou Qisen and rarely gets the upper hand. This time was no exception. He barely defended himself for a few words and then kept silent.
??Li Zhuang is too lazy to talk about it. It is useless to talk about this topic. How many talents are there in the laboratory of Wesson Technology No. 9? Not to mention he is a national treasure, he is a monster, and the leaders of his old unit don't like him very much, but he is strong enough, so it is difficult for others to compete with him for welfare housing. Zhou Zhi is very qualified as the purchasing director and is very worthy of his strange talent for taking exams, but what about his wife Ren Mingmei? Such an outstanding person could only squeeze into a small pigeonhole with Zhou Zhi. He was not reused in the old unit and his status was not as high as Zhou Zhi's. Dr. Xiao Zhicheng, a first-class materials expert, lived a miserable life in his old company just because he didn't know how to make relationships. Some people are not incompetent, but have poor interpersonal skills. They cannot live well in China, an environment where relationships are everywhere.
? ?Zhuang thought of this and picked up the phone, "Old Zhao, how are you now? Ah, has it been raised?"
There was a burst of curses on the other end of the phone, "You just hanged yourself. I heard you were doing well. Why did you call me today?"
Li Zhuang chuckled, "It's not like you don't know my habits, so adjust it up. Where's Lao Zhong?"
??Old Zhao said: "Lao Zhong is also here. What's the matter? You want to take advantage of us?"
Li Zhuang laughed, "You guessed it right, but I called today mainly to care about you. I'm glad to hear that you are doing well. Take care of yourself, there are some things that you can't rush."
The two chatted for a while and hung up the phone. Everyone around looked at them. Zhou Qisen asked, "Do you have any friends who are good at AI?"
Li Zhuang nodded, "Two friends who work at an ordinary university in Hangzhou have not been in contact for a long time. Their scientific research capabilities are quite good, and they have been transferred to the university now."
Zhou Qisen felt regretful for a while, but Li Zhuang smiled and didn't care. As the largest group in the world, the Chinese people have a large base and a relatively unified cultural environment. Although their thinking is divergent, they are also rich in talents. They are always better than the neighboring Ah San. There are many geniuses, but they either immigrate or disappear in the helpless world. Not everyone is lucky.
In early July, Tokyo United Artificial Intelligence Laboratory uait launched a standard C2 level ann computer, which was successfully used in Toyota's automatic production line. The Japanese have done a very good job in converting research results. They are not as good as China. A bunch of scientific research results can only be locked in a file cabinet after appraisal.
Citigroup is worthy of being the world¡¯s largest IT country. Hsai, the joint artificial intelligence laboratory of HP and Sun, launched the C2-level Ann computer. The software design is very advanced, but it consumes a lot of energy. Hsai has had a B-level intelligent brain plan for a long time. The two companies are also good at AI research, but IBM has the precedent and dare not launch it so early. Hsai claims that it will be fully tested and then used for research.
Singer, who had met Li Zhuang once but had not contacted him for a long time, appeared in the artificial intelligence laboratory nai established in New Delhi and became the deputy director. India has followed Citigroup in launching a standard C1-level smart brain, which is quite surprising. The software is good, the hardware architecture is average, and the operation is not very stable. However, no defects are specified. It has been used in New Delhi for population statistics. It is very intelligent and efficient.
The flaws of the ann computer are now fully exposed, but the hardware is not bad. The current most advanced ann computer hardware costs less than 200 million yuan, but the software writing problem is serious. Everyone gathers together to grab talents, resulting in extremely high salaries for AI researchers and terrifying software costs. Countries have to select suitable talents and intensify their training in order to gain advantages in future research.
The most disappointing thing is IBM. Although it has a lot of money, no one is short of money, only people, even India. That an inadvertent failure could have such serious consequences was something that the senior management could not have imagined when they launched the Dreamer ahead of schedule despite the objections of the researchers.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? sir and IBM executives just want to slap themselves in the mouth now. If they had known better, they would not have been so greedy. With their own strength, it would not be difficult to launch a much simpler C2 level. Many researchers who left IBM have become other forces, except HP
The sun group and the Swabian brothers, and the ann computers launched by various countries have more or less the shadow of dreamers, and even the large-module ann computer that China claims to be independently researched is no exception. The corporate standards set by IBM not only failed to gain an advantage in the competition, but also gave other forces an opportunity to peek into the secrets.
Various forces gathered in early August and changed the nine-level composite system beyond recognition. Although the large framework is still IBM's corporate standard, IBM has been unable to gain any benefits from the new nine-level composite system, and even the testing methods have been changed. According to the new system, the dreamer is b2, not b1.
Wesson Technology is currently in a calm state. The Human Resources Department has been recruiting senior talents continuously, while Zhang Kai and Ouyang Tan are focusing on improving the company's PLS system.
Li Zhuang continued to watch the excitement until the beginning of August, and then he no longer had the intention to pay attention to the gossip. Although strong AI is not easy to develop, IBM's demonstration shows that Citigroup has enough capabilities to launch a six-level intelligent brain, and it has a sense of crisis.
The speed of assembling neuron modules of Big Speaker has always been slow. It can repair ultra-precision automatic lines and manipulators by itself. The spare parts in the warehouse are very complete, which saves Li Zhuang a lot of worry. Just when he was about to devote himself to the design of the main module of the V-level intelligent brain, Jinchang came to the door with a group of people.
In a serious leak case, 3D memristor technology and nanoscale laser positioning technology were all stolen by spies sent by unknown forces. The spy nicknamed "Carrot" moved very quickly, cleverly taking advantage of the loneliness and friendship of the Wesson Technology Taiwan gang, and then disappeared into the vast crowd at night.
This matter involves Liang Can¡¯s family. To be precise, it has something to do with Liang Sihan and the Taiwan Gang. Except for Chen Chunxiao, all the people from Taiwan are in the legal representative's office. Wang Wencai lowered his headWithout saying a word, Liang Sihan hugged his face and cried. Liang Can seemed to have aged a few years, and everyone else looked pale.
Li Zhuang stood up and walked around. He raised his head for a long time and said, "Tell me, what is going on with Luo Bo?"
Wang Wencai was about to speak, but Liang Can stopped him, "Let me speak, you two are emotionally unstable."
Dr. Luo Bo, who joined in December last year, is Wang Wencai¡¯s senior brother and Liang Sihan¡¯s alumnus. He was her boyfriend before the accident. This man looks like a typical intellectual, doesn't talk much, smiles all day long, and works in the component project team of the Basic Physics Laboratory. His ability is not very good in the laboratory, he is at an average level, he is quite popular, and he is familiar with everyone up and down.
Luo Bo was introduced by Wang Wencai. He had visited twice before and was very envious of Wesson Technology¡¯s income and internal atmosphere. People from Taiwan are called the "Taiwan Gang" within Wesson Technology because they like to stick together. Of course, all Chinese people like to stick together, which is normal. The Taiwanese gang is a minority within Wesson Technology and is a bit lonely. After all, the habits and cultural atmosphere of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait are different. After Luo Bo came over, he had a close relationship with the Taiwan Gang. Liang Sihan had no boyfriend at the time and Luo Bo was not married, so he pursued her. The two entered into a relationship in June and agreed to get married before the Spring Festival.
The complete set of technologies for 3D memristor chips has been fully upgraded by the Basic Physics Laboratory, and ultra-precision laser positioning technology is a strategic technology that can be used in multiple industries. People from Taiwan participated in the improvement of the 3D memristor chip and made great efforts. The laser positioning technology stolen by Luo Bo was an achievement in optical communications in which people from Taiwan participated. In addition, although high-power and low-power lasers are very different, they have similarities. Wang has outstanding literary talent, high security level, and is partially involved in confidential research.
There is nothing abnormal about Luo Bo's usual behavior. Everyone knows that he majored in electronics, and his expertise on the company's profile list does not include software. Luo Bo occasionally inquired about other developments, which was within the normal range and everyone was curious. However, no one knew how much Wang Wencai and Liang Sihan had told him. After all, the relationship between the three of them was quite special.
After Luo Bo absconded, the Taiwanese gang discovered that he had used Liang Sihan¡¯s private key, and the documents that Wang Wencai had access to were also unlocked by him. It is not clear whether the private key was used, but it is related.
After Liang Can finished speaking, there was only silence in the office, waiting for Li Zhuang to make a decision.
"Dad, I won't stay here anymore. I want to go back to Taiwan, wuwu." Liang Sihan cried while talking to her father.
"Silly girl, can you go back now? If you leave, wouldn't you become an accomplice of that guy Luo Bo? You are dizzy!"
Liang Can, who rarely scolded his daughter, couldn't help but shake a little. Li Zhuang hurriedly said, "Forget it, let's stop this matter. There is only a starting point for stealing technology, and I will handle other aspects. Changze, draft a Files allow employees to protect their private keys, and random communication between different project teams is strictly prohibited.¡±
Jinchang agreed, and Li Zhuang changed his gaze, "Ahan, you don't have to be too sad. This kind of thing is purely an accident. Luo Bo absconding is not a bad thing for you. It is better than being deceived by him for money and sex. It will be troublesome if you get married. .¡±
Senior brother¡¯s comfort was neither fish nor fowl, Liang Sihan looked weird, and the others wanted to laugh but didn¡¯t dare.
Li Zhuang did not realize that something was wrong and continued slowly, "Acai, you must increase your awareness of confidentiality in the future. Alas, since you are here, don't have any psychological burden. There will be more people from different regions in the future."
Wang Wencai nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. It seems that the "Luo Bo Incident" severely damaged his self-confidence, of course in terms of emotional intelligence.
After sending a group of people away, Li Zhuang continued to circle around and couldn't help but shake his head. When a fellow villager meets a fellow villager, his eyes well up with tears, and his hands are not too dirty. After thinking about it, I picked up the phone and called Wang Mei.
"You ask the Finance Department and the Business Department to evaluate the losses caused by this leak, and I will bear all the losses."
The other end of the phone chuckled lightly, "Zhuangzi, I heard someone say that the long-term loss is estimated to be no less than one billion US dollars. You are going to bleed heavily."
Li Zhuang was silent for a long time, "Just follow the rules. Just think of me as helping my master and the others to bear the fine."
Wang Mei sighed, "If you don't pay attention, the more outstanding people will cause greater losses to the company. Years of research and development achievements of the three project teams of the Basic Physics Laboratory will be wiped out. This matter is not that simple. You must handle it properly. Otherwise, your master and the others will be very passive. If the Taiwanese gang is uncomfortable, the non-Chinese researchers will also be under pressure."
Li Zhuang put down the phone, transferred the phone for a while, and then called Zhang Kai, "The parties involved in the Luo Bo espionage incident will be handled according to the company's confidentiality regulations. I told Wang Mei about the fine. You can discuss it with her."
Zhang Kai hummed and said, "I know, there are too many flies now. I have fired fifteen researchers this year. These people all want to be thieves. They are so dirty. You must have helped your master and the others pay the fine, right?" ???
Li Zhuang said angrily, "You are the roundworm in my stomach. If I take you, I will die."
"The consequence of the "Luobo incident" was that surveillance cameras were installed in the laboratory. The researchers considered the consequences of previous opposition and did not insist on it.
Zhang Kai and Ouyang Tan convened a meeting with researchers, told the whole story, patiently answered questions raised by researchers with different opinions, and comforted non-Chinese employees.
"Do things openly and honestly, and there is no need to be afraid. Besides, if you are lax, you are causing trouble for yourself. Special people are good at taking advantage of family, friendship and love. For example, I know Dr. Zhuo Mingliang. He works in a physics laboratory, but he never asks me Inquire about the company's secrets. I don't ask him about the research and development progress of the physics laboratory, even ordinary applied research. This situation has nothing to do with being close or not. I protect him and he protects me. Otherwise, trouble will come sooner or later. Once encountered If you can't handle it, the old friendship will be destroyed."
After Zhang Kai finished speaking, a researcher shouted, "We can understand such a simple truth. Let's adjourn the meeting. We don't have time to chat."
The venue burst into laughter, but Zhang Kai remained indifferent, "Not everyone can figure it out. If they really did, I wouldn't have to waste any words. Those who are willing to listen will stay, and those who want to leave will go back to work."
As soon as the words fell, the researchers rushed out and ran out. In less than two minutes, they were all gone. Zhang Kai was dumbfounded.
Li Zhuang chuckled lightly, "These people are somewhat arrogant. If they stayed, they would look worse than others, so they all left."
Zhang Kai smiled mockingly and turned to discuss with Ouyang Tan in a low voice. As soon as Li Zhuang saw their posture, he quietly slipped back to the office and concentrated on studying V-level. His theoretical derivation has been completed for nearly two years, but engineering has chosen to be cautious. Super loudspeaker was one of the solutions. Although it failed, it clarified the idea.
The vitality of the intelligent production laboratory and basic physics laboratory is slowly recovering. The joint meeting of laboratory directors is operating normally, the high-level joint meeting is operating normally, and core staff meetings are held regularly. Nothing happened to Li Zhuang. In addition to teaching and doing research every day, I also spend time with Xiaojia, and my life is very comfortable. He can teach, and training is one of the highlights of the company. The senior management has no choice but to let go of the lazy guy.
The leisurely days only lasted for a month. At the beginning of October, hsai announced that it would officially release the standard b1-level ann smartphone "Future" on New Year's Day.
The Yankees were stronger than imagined, and they actually recovered their strength in such a short period of time. There was no time to waste any more time. At the end of October, Li Zhuang convened a meeting of core managers and announced that he would be in seclusion and concentrate on research. It is unknown how long it will take, and he should not disturb it unless it is a major event.
The audience looked at each other, Zhou Qisen coughed, "Are you sure?"
Li Zhuang smiled and said, "Go ahead even if you're not sure. All pseudo-intelligent machines are B-level and below. The company's current theoretical research is only at C-level, and its engineering capabilities can barely reach E1. We can't delay any longer. We must at least raise our engineering capabilities." Level e5 or level d1, otherwise your hands and feet will be tied up in the future."
"Are you sure about b1?" Ren Mingmei asked.
Li Zhuang was silent for a moment, "Try your best. If you can do it, do it best, otherwise you will suffer a loss in the standard battle."
Zhou Zhi took over, "What does the purchasing department need to do?"
Li Zhuang said: "I need a purchasing team that can maintain 24-hour contact."
Zhou Zhijie stepped back, and Guobao stepped forward, "I will develop a super recovery agent with the medical laboratory. You only need to drink one bottle to restore your physical strength and spirit immediately."
Li Zhuang laughed loudly, "I haven't settled the matter with you about the nutrient solution yet, and you've come here to fool me again."
The national treasure laughed dryly, and Yamamoto came to the rescue, "I promise not to leave the park until you come out."
Li Zhuang didn¡¯t know whether to laugh or cry. He was too lazy to argue with this guy. He thought for a moment, ¡°I¡¯m afraid I won¡¯t be able to be there to congratulate you when your child is born. I wish you congratulations in advance.¡±
Yamamoto bowed and stepped forward, "You have to pay attention to your health. If you need any support from wlpai, please call me at any time. Don't worry about the outside matters, Dr. Zhou and I will take care of it."
Li Zhuang waved goodbye, with a show-off attitude. The supervisors were all infected by his determination and sent them out of the administration building together. They did not stop until the family of three met.
"Where to go?" Lisa asked.
Li Zhuang said: "Go to my office, it's not safe at home."
Lisa hummed, handed the Sunway to her mother, and went upstairs with her husband. As soon as she sat down in the office, she couldn't wait to ask, "What exactly is a loudspeaker? What's the difference between it and a dreamer?"
Li Zhuang chuckled, "You don't have to ask about the details, I won't tell you. It is very necessary for me to retreat this time. Shopping malls are like battlefields, and our computer technology reserves are seriously insufficient and must be made up. In addition, I am preparing to research"??A new intellectual brain needs to eliminate all interference. "
Lisa said angrily, "You have a lot of secrets. Just go into retreat. Anyway, you are in a daze all day long when you are here. I really can't bear it if you don't solve it. By the way, what do you have to explain?"
Li Zhuang scratched his head and said, "Just wait and see what happens. Don't interfere with the management's operations. Also, keep an eye on the super estate for me. Don't disturb other things. I can't think about issues other than technology. Go down and walk around together." Go shopping, I¡¯ll start working after lunch.¡±
The couple took their son for a walk around the park, reminiscing about the past together and feeling extremely warm. Sunway seemed to sense the atmosphere between his parents and did not cry.
Li Zhuang had a delicious lunch, kissed his wife and children goodbye, returned to the rest suite next to the warehouse on the 11th floor of the Hexagon Building, and began to fall asleep.
"HP and sun are two big flies that prevent me from being lazy, which makes me depressed!"
Someone said something exaggerated before going to bed. As for who is the fly, maybe Citigroup thinks he is a little fly.
