Minke's black technology

Chapter 11 Infinite Compression
After returning from Penguin Company without success, Li Maoye didn't take this matter to heart.

He hastened to apply for the software copyright and algorithm patent of Liquid Cat. At the same time, he is considering whether to start a company with Monkey and the others, so as to facilitate future cooperation with others.

After this experience, Li Maoye once again confirmed that he is not good at dealing with people, he should do research honestly!

There are still many black technologies waiting for him in the CVI database!

On the other hand, the movement of the tank was not slow, and it quickly contacted the ferry company.

Li Maoye didn't want to spend time on this, so he also gave Tan Tan full powers and asked him to talk to the ferry himself.

It's a pity that Tank didn't find the right person. No matter how extravagantly he tried to sell the "Liquid Cat" to Ferry, they didn't even give it a second glance. They didn't even ask the technicians to test it. Only a marketing businessman followed up.

Whenever Tank talks about how amazing the compression ratio of "Liquid Cat" is, Ferry's businessman will say impatiently: "Okay, okay! Needless to say, the file can be compressed losslessly to the original volume within ten minutes." One? This is a joke! According to our technology, this is simply impossible, and it does not conform to mathematical theory at all!"

Tank hurriedly took out the relevant information, trying to prove that this was true. The businessman didn't understand these technical issues, so he called a few ferry technicians to come over to have a look.

The ferry technology supervisor glanced at the code and then passed it on to other technologies. No one could understand the above code, and they didn't believe it was true.

"Your code is messed up, isn't it used to fool people?"

"I have been programming for so many years, and I have never seen such a spicy code."

"That's right, that's just scribbling, worse than beginners!"

"Theoretically, it can be compressed infinitely? Are you a liar?"

"It must be a lie, don't think about it!"

"I've asked Penguin for a long time, and they also thought about buying this software, but during the acceptance stage, the technical director immediately terminated the acquisition process as soon as he saw the code was written in such a mess!"

"Oh, so you have been found out by the Penguin company, and you still dare to come to the ferry to continue cheating?"

"We'll just call the police."

After hearing this, the tank was very anxious: "No! Absolutely not. If you don't believe me, use it to compress it and see, you will know that I have not lied to you."

"No need, who knows what the hell you did!"

"We won't send you to the police station, but stay here and don't disturb our work!"

Maybe the people on the ferry are well-informed and have deceived too many people, so they are more vigilant about this kind of thing, or the people they connect with are not compression professionals at all, and they didn't take the time to study it carefully, just deal with it casually That's all.

Anyway, missing "Liquid Cat" is a loss for Ferry and Penguin!

"Haha, the ferry actually kicked you out?" The monkey laughed wildly, and said that it was a pity to miss such a wonderful scene.

"Okay, if Penguin Ferry doesn't know the goods, then ignore them."

Li Maoye wasn't panicking at all. At worst, if he threw "Liquid Cat" online and charged monthly, even if Penguin Ferry came to his door, he wouldn't cooperate with him anymore.

"Don't pack it up and sell it together. Let's resign and start a business with Master Mao. We will use Liquid Cat to build a super network disk to grab the market and let them all drink the northwest wind! Haha!" Monkey tentatively half-jokingly.

Tan Tan still had some doubts about the important matter of starting a business, so he didn't immediately express his approval.

Starting a business?
Li Maoye thought seriously: "If you do a one-shot deal, the money will come in quickly. It is indeed a bit of a blood loss. If there is a company that is responsible for the promotion and cooperation of Liquid Cats, it will indeed be much better than it is now."

Looking at Penguin's posture, if he doesn't take out the algorithm as part of the transaction, they will not be willing to spend a lot of money. It is estimated that they will encounter such a thing when they go to other big companies to promote.

Tank made up his mind and said: "Maybe we should change our thinking and not sell software but only provide compression services. I believe there will be many network disk companies willing to cooperate. The question is whether we can put the compression function of Liquid Cat on the cloud server." , and then charge according to traffic."

Monkey scratched his head when he heard this: "Master Cat, I have to ask you to know this, right?"

"of course can!"

Li Maoye replied without hesitation, even if he only has a simple PC compression software in his hand, as long as he goes back and fixes the interface, the rest is just some coding work, and he needs to spend money to hire people to do it, and he can always make a good result. Required software features.

"Then let's make a plan first?" Monkey said while rubbing his thin chin.

"I think this way is feasible!" Tank nodded affirmatively.

"Then I will leave it to you to start a company and negotiate with foreign countries."

Faced with this kind of matter, Li Maoye didn't care too much. He felt that it would be good for him to start a company, and he didn't have to argue with companies like Penguin Ferry. He was most afraid of trouble.

It's just that sometimes in the world, plans don't always keep up with changes.

The "Liquid Cat" thrown by Li Maoye on the test platform quickly spread in a small circle, especially those circles who specialize in compression algorithms. They were amazed at the incredible compression ratio reflected by this software!
"How exactly is this done?"

"That terrible compression ratio, and it's still lossless compression?"

"Looking at the software information, it seems that we Chinese people made the software themselves, but when did our country produce such awesome programmers?"

Programmers in the circle are shocked by "Liquid Cat". No matter what type of files they use to compress, Liquid Cat can compress these files to less than one-tenth of their original volume, and sometimes even Can overwhelm to a lesser degree.

In order to test the compression limit of "Liquid Cat", a boring programmer first used compression software such as ZIP, RAR and 7Z to compress all the files, and then used Liquid Cat to compress. The result was a surprising scene Apparently, Liquid Cat is able to compress further on the basis of what other compression software has already processed!

It can also reduce the volume of compressed files of different types by 90%, and it can be used after decompression without any errors!

What's even more frightening is that Liquid Cat can also recompress the files it has compressed, with the same compression ratio of [-]:[-]. However, the second compression will cause the CPU resource usage of the computer to increase rapidly and the compression time to explode. .

However, after the compressed file is decompressed twice, it can be restored to its original size, which proves that the secondary compression is also successful!

"Can you still play like this? Then can you continue to compress it?" The boring programmer thought to himself.

So he really continued to compress the files that had been compressed twice with "Liquid Cat". As a result, it was still able to be compressed three or four times, and the compression ratio was still as high as ten to one, which shows how terrifying this compression algorithm is.

However, the CPU resources and time required for such repeated compressions increased geometrically. When the programmer compressed to the fifth time, the compression time was too long, and the machine was stuck in the middle of the compression and could not move!
"If it is replaced by a supercomputer to compress, I am afraid it can be compressed!"

When this boring programmer published the test process and results on the Internet, it immediately attracted other people to watch, and someone analyzed below: "This proves that Liquid Cat uses a brand new algorithm, and it is far higher. Compared with other compression software algorithms! Theoretically, it can be compressed infinitely. If this algorithm can form a paper to be published, I'm sure the author can get the Fields Medal in 2022!"

"Does the upstairs think too highly of this algorithm?"

"That's right, how could it be so easy to win the Fields Medal!"

"No, no, you really don't understand the practical significance of this infinite compression algorithm. If it is only from the point of view that it increases the lossless compression ratio to one-tenth, it is really not a great thing, but once you understand If you realize that the difficulty of infinite compression is far more difficult than landing on the surface of the sun, you will understand why the algorithm author was able to win the Fields Award, which is definitely an epoch-making mathematics award!"

"Shit! I don't believe this algorithm is so awesome!"

……

Some people in the post agree, and some people oppose, but they all agree that "Liquid Cat" can instantly kill all compression algorithms on the market, and its birth may raise the level of human data compression by several steps.

As the controversy spread, the "Liquid Cat" software became known to companies in Silicon Valley.
