Rebirth 09: Synthetic Male God

Chapter 1051 A Little Preparation Out of Responsibility
The news of the successful launch of the "Eye of Artemis" caused a bigger stir around the world than expected.

It is true that in today's era, an unmanned lunar exploration project is no longer a big deal, but when times change, there will be people who look forward to the new era and there will definitely be people who miss the old era.

What's more, Amy also has many patriots and spiritual supporters. Many people believe that this is a counterattack by the US space industry. Although it was not loud, they did it.

In addition, some media reports described this only "project with progress" by NASA in recent years as the beginning of a series of great plans.

Some people even fantasize that the future will see China and the United States jointly develop the moon.

Of course, even if they were fantasizing too much, they didn't dare to think that NASA could beat Taiyi, but at least they didn't fall behind, right?
It will take 12 days for the "Eye of Artemis" to reach the lunar orbit and make a soft landing on the moon around the 15th day.

According to calculation, it will be either December 12st or January 31st next year. This date is also specially designed and is a good topic in publicity and promotion.

Zhou Rui temporarily put this matter behind him and turned to his work.

Those who fall behind only need to think about catching up, but those who are ahead have much more trouble and need to open up the future.

After the CHITEC, six major technologies and news were announced in succession, including "Hibernation Virus", "Compound No. 2", "Bai Ze Large Model", "Bionic Man", "Learning Machine" and "Chan Gong Project". Each technology has many follow-up issues that need to be dealt with. Even if they are not immediately launched into the market, the tone and context must be set internally.

Gan Yuan can help him with daily work, but he has to handle these important matters that determine the future direction personally.

This is also why he is so busy that he doesn't even have time to go to Wanhu Base to play the bullet-dodging game.

The story of a technology being launched, entering the market the next day, and selling all over the world in a month only appears in novels and picture books.

Among the six technologies, "learning machines" and "Toad Palace Project" are singled out, and the other four can be viewed in groups of two.

Regarding the "Hibernation Project" and "Compound No. 1", Zhou Rui has already negotiated with Zhongshan Hospital about the former. Zhongshan Hospital and Lingshu Bio will form a clinical trial project team, which will begin practicing innovative therapies early next year after 3- months of intensive study and training.

It mainly provides voluntary clinical trial-based conservative treatment for terminally ill or endangered patients, namely, using hibernation viruses to protect their vital signs from deteriorating, or to block/delay the development of terminal illness.

Since the hibernation virus can make people "comatose" and viral therapy has very high requirements for "health and safety", it may be necessary to build a separate ward.

All costs, including ward construction and treatment costs, will be borne solely by Lingshu Bio. No matter how long a person sleeps, or whether it costs hundreds of thousands or millions, clinical trials are inherently risky, and this guarantee must be given to patients.

Zhongshan Hospital has won the lottery for two consecutive years. All new technologies of Lingshu Bio will be piloted there first. Not only have many medical achievements and classic cases been produced, but the overall hospital's "innovative therapy" score has also been rising steadily.

With more accumulation, it is about time for Beijing Union Medical College to replace the number one position in the country.

Going further, the world's number one "Mayo Clinic" can also move its position. In addition to technological improvements, changes in a country's "voice" and "technological halo" will also greatly affect the rankings in various fields.

As for "Compound No. 2", there is no plan to apply it externally for the time being. After the Science and Technology Expo, Marcus only arranged for some observational papers to be published in the academic community. This technology will be unique to the Furui Group for a long time.

The first batch of 10 beneficiaries of the "Hall" have all been vaccinated and are under observation. The second batch of candidates are already being selected, and 30 more people are planned to be added.

The overwhelming scientific research strength of Furui Group will only become more and more exaggerated.

If once the group was like a towering tree named "Zhou Rui" standing on fertile land, then in the future there will be more and more small trees forming a forest.

The small tree is just for comparison. If it is put outside, it is also a big deal! Because there is basically grass outside.

As for the "Bai Ze Large Model" and "Bionic Man", Kaiming Intelligence has established a newest business department, called "Bai Ze Business Department". Andre is the technical chief, and Song Jin, who worked with him at the beginning, has become the main person in charge.

This is not to undermine Andre, but is Andre's own strong request.

The ten-minute speech he gave at the Hi-Tech Expo became a lifelong shadow for this bearded man. He couldn't sleep every night and lived on vodka, so his attitude was very firm.

It seems that if he is pushed out as a face, he would rather go back to Siberia to play with brown bears.

According to Song Jin's plan, the "Bai Ze Big Model" for the C-end will be released next month. It will be the 2.0 version of "Bai Ze" and will only be available in two languages, Chinese and English. The Chinese version is the logical original and the English version is the translated copy, which will be distributed to the public in the form of application codes.

2.0 is not expected to be a paid version, because Bai Ze is not comprehensive enough. At this stage, it focuses on training, doing what it can, and recruiting human trainers to participate.

In addition, enterprise users can choose pre-installed versions in the future to provide Bai Ze support for smartphones and laptops. This will be charged, and Zhou Weigang also intends to discuss this matter this time.

Song Jin's plan is to build a dedicated computing center for Bai Ze in the western region where electricity prices are low next year, and Zhou Rui also approved it.

As for the bionic people, the new department plans to continue to build 2-3 more units as prototypes and experiments, which will include women, the elderly and children.

Zhou Rui rejected the part about children and did not approve it.

The "Bai Ze Big Model" has mechanical intelligence and is destined to become stronger and stronger. The current limitation on the realism of "bionic man" actually comes from the "skin suit" and "artificial muscles".

We still need to work harder on these two directions, but with the strength of Kaiming Intelligence, we won’t be stuck for too long, because more and more people will enter the “hall”.

Finally, the planning of the “learning machine” has been made public outside the official website. Furui Group will strictly follow the plan and explore each step with the organization. The first phase, which is the use within the Furui Group, is already being arranged and may be carried out in conjunction with the “Hall” plan.

The first launch of the "Chan Gong Project" is scheduled for ten days later, at the end of the year. It is an experimental project to test the feasibility of "slow delivery to the moon."

After the Eye of Artemis, someone in the company suggested launching it ahead of schedule. Considering the nature of the experiment, the preparations for the Taiyi Spacecraft had been quite complete and there wasn't much technical difficulty.

However, Zhou Rui felt that there was no need to disrupt his pace.

According to calculations, if the launch is on December 12, it will reach the moon around mid-January of the new year.

----

After a busy day's work, Zhou Rui signed his name on the "beneficiary list" and put it aside.

The list includes the second batch of members of the Hall Project, a total of 30 people, including 8 members of Kaiming Intelligence, 15 members of Taiyi Tiangong, and 6 members of Lingshu Biology.
and one from Zhou Han Research Institute.

This person is not Han Zinyin. Her injection is not that quick, at least it will be after giving birth. Of course, she does not need to go through the company's procedures. Zhou Rui will handle it personally.

The beneficiary was Yu Shu, the first scientific researcher Zhou Rui knew.

The senior who loved to eat starch sausages and would carefully collect early paper coupons of "Are You Hungry?"

With the development of the group and the rise of the technology tree, in addition to absorbing more high-quality talents and internal training, some of the people who followed Zhou Rui in the early days gradually moved away from the core due to the limitations of their talents.

They are still working hard to complete their work, playing their own roles, recalling the memories of overcoming difficulties with Zhou Rui, and feeling grateful for the honors they have received.

But in the end, his talent was not enough to follow Zhou Rui in breaking through the boundaries of science.

However, with "Compound No. 2", many old friends have new possibilities, and it is possible that they will return to the core circle in the future.

Just as he was about to call Mia to collect the documents, the bell on the desk rang first.

"explain."

"Mr. Zhou, there are two guests from Beijing North, claiming to be from the post office."

Zhou Rui raised his eyebrows, understood what was going on, and nodded, "Let them come up."

In less than a few minutes, two smart and capable middle-aged men came up. Although it was their first time entering this strange office, they kept their eyes straight and did not look around the entire time.

They were not the same people as in the previous times, but they were just as well-trained.

Zhou Rui smiled and said, "I thought you could just send it by express delivery, but I didn't expect you would bother to make a special delivery."

One of them smiled and said, "We will not lend Academician Zhou's things to others. We must deliver them personally."

He opened a black suitcase and found a single envelope inside.

Zhou Rui took the envelope and signed, and the two of them said goodbye. There was not a single word of nonsense during the whole conversation, and they didn't even know what was in the envelope.

Zhou Rui sat back at his desk, leisurely opened the envelope, and poured out the contents.

The corners of my mouth couldn't help but curl up.

It's three ID cards.

They are all from "Zhou Rui", but the numbers and addresses are different.

Together with his original one, he now has four ID cards.

One for Qinghe Town, one for Shanghai, one for northern Beijing, and one for Taicang, Jiangxi Province.

And it's all true.

There are some things that others may not mention, but he cannot be unprepared.

A little preparation out of a sense of responsibility.
