94: From Technological Warfare to Space Empire

Chapter 42: Gold Coins Galore!



Chapter 42: Gold Coins Galore!

After Chief Hou handed Lin Yu the letter of appointment from the higher-ups, it did not mean that Lin Yu could immediately take office as the factory director.

This is only the top-level appointment and transfer; the notification to the lower levels has not yet been completed.

Lin Yu's contribution this time was truly significant, so Chief Hou asked Lin Yu to wait a couple more days while he sent someone to handle the handover of the factory.

To prevent anyone from taking advantage of Lin Yu's young age to make trouble for him.

So after that banquet, Lin Yu enjoyed two rare days off.

However, Lin Yu has been busy these past two days. After the military returned Krecha to him and he was exonerated, no one will pursue the matter anymore.

The professors left with only the code that decompiles the SA policy. Thanks to military funding, Lin Yu's supercomputer has now been upgraded.

先前只有1.44Mb容量传统的3.5英寸软盘被换成了艾美加Zip Z100磁碟驱动器。总容量提升了70多倍,达到了100Mb。

The hard drive was fitted with four 1.3GB Maxtor IDE hard drives, significantly increasing its capacity.

Lin Yu was finally able to further develop his artificial intelligence.

Although he himself has already obtained artificial intelligence that connects to the artificial intelligence network in 2026 through the system.

However, we still need to develop artificial intelligence that can be implemented on ordinary CPUs in this era.

Unlike later large-scale models of artificial intelligence.

He is now working as a research assistant, similar to AlphaGo.

This is what artificial intelligence looks like in its initial stages before it has been trained using big data models.

If Lin Yu hadn't returned to this era, three years later, the first artificial intelligence capable of deepening and reinforcing learning would have been developed in Russia.

But now that Lin Yu has returned to this era, this laurel wreath will only be won by China.

The core of this artificial intelligence is not the neural network model of the high-computing era of later generations.

Instead, it is a learning technology model developed using the Markov chain Monte Carlo method within the Bayesian statistical framework.

Unlike later AI, which can access databases anytime, anywhere in all fields and provide answers for everyone, it is not a universal AI.

Instead, it involves analyzing professional data.

Find the optimal solution from a vast number of possibilities.

AI can replace humans in completing a large number of inefficient trial-and-error experiments by playing against itself, conducting massive simulations, and iterative optimization.

The biggest leap for humanity into the AI ​​era has never been a large-scale model search engine for the general public.

Rather, it is the leap in productivity brought about by AI in scientific and technological research and development.

In pharmaceutical and life sciences, AI can be used for protein sequence sequencing and organic synthesis.

In materials science and new energy, AI can replace humans in solving massive combinations of element ratios and crystal structures.

Even in Lin Yu's beloved aerospace major, AI can be used to handle the aerodynamic layout and structural design of rockets, and computing power can be used to handle complex optimization problems with multiple objectives.

While the use of artificial intelligence in the above fields was limited by computing power in this era, it was not as useful as it is in later generations.

However, the low computing power is only compared to computers of later generations. In an era where there are hardly any college students, the artificial intelligence that Lin Yu has created will bring hundreds of times the improvement to scientific research efficiency.

Fueled by this specialized AI, Lin Yu believes that the day when we move towards general AI is not far off.

On February 6, after another all-night coding session, Lin Yu finally created the artificial intelligence model he wanted and completed the code encryption with the help of the system.

I finally got back to my dorm and fell into a deep sleep.

When I woke up again, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

The wind and snow outside grew stronger and stronger, obscuring the entire sky, and the dormitory was plunged into darkness.

Lin Yu groped his way to the light switch, turned on the light, and found Xu Haoxiang lying on the bed, silently staring at him.

"Damn it, what are you going to do?" Lin Yu was startled by Xu Haoxiang's appearance.

Seeing that Lin Yu was awake, Xu Haoxiang stopped staring blankly at him and instead sighed with a melancholy expression:

"I know you and Uncle Hou are right. I also loathe that woman now. She's so hypocritical it's disgusting."

But today she came to see me again and asked me where you were.

Uncle Hou told me to keep her calm and not to show anything unusual, as I'm going through a really tough time right now.

Lin Yu, you're smart, can you teach me?

I'm really bad at playing along with her, and I feel like she's starting to doubt me now.

But if I fail to complete this task, I can forget about redeeming myself; my elders at home won't forgive me either.

After saying that, Xu Haoxiang collapsed onto the bed, looking dejected.

Lin Yu rolled his eyes at this rich second-generation who didn't know how lucky he was.

This is purely his family helping him to improve his resume; he is now in an absolutely safe situation and can do whatever he wants.

Why can't you think straight?

If you're not this hesitant when dealing with spies, why is Xu Haoxiang, with such a powerful family background, so restrained when dealing with a spy?

Lin Yu knew very well that, given Xu Haoxiang's intelligence, his family would definitely not allow him to access any important information.

As an insignificant person, he could actually say whatever he wanted without any restraint.

So Lin Yu asked, "What exactly is the task Minister Hou gave you?"

As he spoke, he pulled a piece of chocolate from his bag and popped it into his mouth to replenish his energy.

Xu Haoxiang knelt on the bed, opened his mouth but made no sound. Perhaps he had learned his lesson and knew that some information should not be revealed to outsiders.

But then he thought again, since it was Commander Hou who sent him to see Lin Yu, he should be able to talk to him, so he answered:

"They would give me some manuscripts from time to time, ask me to draw them by hand and bring them to Yang Jia, and then ask me to tell her, 'This is what you drew, and I copied it.'"

"I couldn't understand those things at all, but because I copied them onto the form, Yang Jia asked me to explain them to her. How could I possibly know how?"

"I had no choice but to grit my teeth and recite what Uncle Hou had told me."

"I came here today because Uncle Hou asked me to ask you if you have any other ideas for using counter-espionage to spread those ideas over there."

Hearing this, Lin Yu couldn't help but laugh.

Sure enough, this familiar method was inherited from the same source; his counter-espionage scheme was learned from his predecessor.

The strategic deception bureau isn't unique to the United States; China is also very adept at it.

Currently, Japan, as a core member of COCOM, has participated in many sanctions against China.

As the only developed country in Asia, with this opportunity now available, almost everyone is eager to do something malicious.

In this way, it doesn't really matter what role Xu Haoxiang plays in this segment.

Lin Yu comforted him, "Then it's alright, just deal with it casually."

Commander Hou has made arrangements; your role is to deliver these things.

Your carefully crafted public image actually provides the safest protection; even your inaccurate statements are seen as a contribution to the country. If anything goes wrong later, you can simply take the blame.

Then Lin Yu thought about it:

"When I last met her, I told her that I was studying agronomy, and it's not appropriate to switch to another field right away."

"Just tell her I'm researching the pollination ability of European bumblebees, which are five or six times more effective at pollination than our native Asian honeybees."

Lin Yu smiled, his eyes narrowing. This thing was indeed extremely effective at pollination.

However, they also attack native bees, have few natural predators, and are covered in parasites.

If you actually raise them, they will only threaten the reproduction of native plants.

Xu Haoxiang nodded as if he understood, and then said:

"Uncle Hou asked me to pass on a message to you: the notification from Hongxing Steel Plant has been prepared. Now it's up to you what you want to do."

"The previous factory manager has been transferred to another location, and he's waiting for you to hand over the work before taking office."

"Uncle Hou also said that you should come with me to the compound to find him as soon as you wake up."

"There seems to be a lot more to it, but Uncle Hou didn't say. He only said that the Japanese side trusts you more now."

"He also asked if your previous theory could be revised, because someone offered a high price to change it."

Xu Haoxiang tilted his head back and mechanically imitated Chief Hou's speaking habits. He didn't know what technology was being used; he was simply relaying the message.

Lin Yu's eyes lit up. In this day and age, Russia was probably the only country that could propose a deal with China and agree to it.

Are those old Soviet relics about to explode in value?
