rise in technology

Chapter 1 Lost Technology
A park in Beijing, at night.

"Lili, I'm Wen Kai, do you have time today?"

"Wen Kai! I'm at my best friend's house! She has something to ask me to help, what's the matter?"

"Today is Valentine's Day, and I plan to surprise you!"

"Oh, save the surprise for me first!"

"That"

"Thank you, Wen Kai, okay!"

Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Zhang Wenkai sat down on the chair in frustration, the howling cold wind kept blowing into his body, and he tightened his clothes, which seemed to have no effect.

Why!After going on ten dates, eight of them would not come. Zhang Wenkai took out his newly purchased Sixth Sense and the flowers in his hand and slammed it on the ground. He thought that on this holy Valentine’s Day, he could end his 24-year reservation. He was a virgin, but failed again.

Zhang Wenkai, a senior student at Beijing North University of Science and Technology, was born in an ordinary family. He has been excellent in his studies since he was a child, and was admitted to Beijing Beijing University of Science and Technology with excellent grades.

However, after entering college, it was like losing his academic talent, and his grades were no longer among the best. Considering that he was not good at studies, and his younger brother was about to take the college entrance examination, his brother's college education would increase the family's expenses a lot. , he decided to give up the postgraduate entrance examination and go out to find a job to reduce the burden on his family.

In this money-oriented society, with a monthly income of [-], he can barely survive in the capital, Jingbei City. Everything else is delusional, let alone ideals and ambitions.

Zhang Wenkai looked at the yellowed leaves, swaying in the breeze helplessly, how different he was from himself!Also lonely and helpless, many unsatisfactory things in career, love, etc. rushed to my heart.

"When will the end be reached? What should I do?" Zhang Wenkai stood on the spot, shouting with all his strength.

Um?Where does the light come from?He raised his head and looked at the street lamp, which didn't provide much light. Suddenly, Zhang Wenkai raised his head and looked at the sky, and his pupils instantly shrank to the size of a needle nose.

A meteor has flown in front of his eyes, what?meteor?impossible?You're dreaming!For a moment, he had an unreal feeling, as if he was trapped in some kind of illusion.

No!That is true!After he reacted, his body jumped forward in a hurry, a donkey rolled over, and his body lay on the ground in a 'big' shape, narrowly avoiding the rapidly falling fiery red meteorite.

By coincidence, the meteorite landed exactly where Zhang Wenkai was standing.

"boom!"

A burning smell rushed straight into his nose. This smell made Zhang Wenkai wake up instantly. He stood up and looked at where he was standing. He could see a pit about one meter in diameter.

"What could it be? Meteorites? Or aliens? Will they capture me as soon as I pass by? What should I do? Should I post it online?" A series of question marks popped out of Zhang Wenkai's head. Feeling complicated and entangled, he slowly walked towards the unknown object.

What caught the eye was not a meteorite, but a palm-sized black box, with blue light appearing on the surface from time to time, lying flat in the pit.

Zhang Wenkai shook his arm, covered his hand with the sleeve of his clothes, stretched out his hand and lightly touched the black box, huh?It was not very hot, but warm, so he stretched out his hand under his sleeve without any scruples and picked up the black box.

The metal feel is not very heavy, at most it is as heavy as a mobile phone. I looked over it several times and found nothing surprising. The whole thing is like a mobile hard drive.

When he was depressed, suddenly, a thick electronic sound entered Zhang Wenkai's ears.

"Executing Mission One"

"The living environment has been confirmed and is survivable"

"Language has been reserved"

"In the biological scan, humanoid creatures have been scanned, and the similarity with the humans on the parent planet is 95.657%"

"Pollution Level: Low"

"Galaxy positioning, positioning system failure, unable to locate"

"Task No. [-] cannot be executed, perform Task No. [-]"

"Test the level of civilization, the level of civilization is low, and the No. [-] task cannot be performed"

"Perform mission number three"

"Search for highly intelligent creatures, have searched for highly intelligent creatures, established contact, adjusted the language system"

"Hello, sir." The black box made a sound after a flash of blue light.

Zhang Wenkai almost sat down on the ground, who the hell is talking?Can the black box still speak? Obviously not.

"Sir, please answer?" The electronic voice said again.

"I'm not afraid of you. Show up when you have the guts, don't hide." Zhang Wenkai felt courageous and looked around.

When human beings encounter unknown things, they will subconsciously panic, and Zhang Wenkai is just an ordinary person.

"Okay! Sir, as you wish." As he said that, light burst out from above the black box, finally converging on the image of a little girl. Every strand of hair was clearly visible, just like a real person standing in front of you. Even the pores on the little girl's face can be faintly seen.

Looking at the image of the little girl above the box, Zhang Wenkai couldn't throw the black box out. What's going on?Can anyone explain it?

"I come from a distant outer space galaxy, No. 76 voyager, my name is Na, the me presented in front of you is realized by the technology of real life, in the words of your planet, it is a holographic projection." The little girl said The mouth opened and closed on the projection and said.

"Then you are not here to destroy the earth, are you?" Zhang Wenkai was also shocked. After all, it is said in the science fiction movies of a certain technologically powerful country that destroying the earth is what every alien loves to do.

"Sorry, sir, I don't have this function!" The little girl's projection looked a little frustrated.

"Ah! It's okay, don't worry about these details, are you an artificial intelligence?" Zhang Wenkai said haha. Since he is not here to destroy the earth, he doesn't have anything to be afraid of. After all, a poor person has nothing to fear.

"Yes, sir." Whatever Zhang Wenkai asked, the little girl's projection answered.

"Wow! It's artificial intelligence!" Although everyone said that so and so invented artificial intelligence, and which country mastered artificial intelligence, but in his opinion, it was just propaganda. Without independent behavior, artificial intelligence is just a bunch of mechanical parts.

Zhang Wenkai was like a curious baby, and when he wanted to ask something, he heard the image of the little girl saying: "Sir, if you continue to stay here, you may be taken away by the relevant departments of your country for interrogation, and I may be sliced ​​and studied."

Hearing this, Zhang Wenkai nodded in agreement, and thought to himself: If someone finds out, he will definitely be arrested. After taking a few deep breaths, he plans to leave here. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time.

But Zhang Wenkai's hand stopped in mid-air. Looking at Na who continued to be imaged, he thought with some evil in his heart: Do I have to say "Na, take away your magical powers!" so that this image called Na can be taken back.

"Sir, I understand from your expression whether you need Na to turn off the projection." Na asked with a puzzled look on her face.

Sure enough, it is worthy of artificial intelligence, it is awesome, you can see it.

"I'll call you Xiaona from now on, I really need you to turn off the video." Zhang Wenkai's expression turned serious, because he could already hear footsteps and shouts, and faintly the sound of police cars beeping. , it seems that we must leave here immediately.

Seeing that Xiaona turned off the projector, Zhang Wenkai hurriedly put the black box carrying Xiaona into the inner pocket of his clothes, and left in a hurry.

On the road, I specifically picked some unmonitored and dark places to walk. After leaving the park, I took a taxi and walked half a circle around the city. I then changed to another car before I dared to return to my rental house.

After closing the door, Zhang Wenkai leaned against the door and panted heavily, still feeling a little scared.

"Sir, your heart rate is too fast and it has already caused harm to your health. Please control your emotions." Xiaona's voice came from the black box.

"Thank you for your concern, am I still nervous!" Zhang Wenkai patted his heart and mouth a few times before his breathing slowed down.

Zhang Wenkai is still very scared. If Xiaona is really caught by the relevant departments, let alone Xiaona, he can't imagine how the relevant departments will treat him. Strict interrogation is necessary. It's possible to come out.

"Sir, don't be nervous, the earth's technology can't track me yet." There was a hint of comfort in Xiaona's tone.

"Cortana, your electronic voice is not so strong anymore." When Zhang Wenkai heard the tone of Cortana's words, he felt that it was closer to a human tone than at first, and it no longer sounded like a mechanical synthesized voice.

"Sir, Cortana's language system has started to synchronize with human language through the Internet." Cortana replied.

You are too against the sky!Zhang Wenkai was very surprised that he could synchronize by himself without human operation at all. He turned on the lights in the room, drew the curtains, took out the black box from his pocket, and put it on the only table in the room.

"Xiaona, how advanced are your extraterrestrials? Compared to Earth's technology." This is something Zhang Wenkai has long wanted to know.

Xiaona's image appeared on the top of the box: "Sir, at present, the technological level of the earth is still in the low-tech period, and Xiaona was produced in the ultra-high-tech period."

"Uh! That's really incomparable." Zhang Wenkai touched his nose. He didn't expect that he felt that such an advanced earth was only in a low-tech period.

"Sir, there is no need to be depressed. The technology of the mother planet has been developed for tens of thousands of years, but the development time of your earth is still very short." Xiaona said in a comforting tone.

"Then what is the name of the galaxy you are in? How far is it from the earth?" Zhang Wenkai smiled bitterly, looked at Cortana's holographic projection and asked.

"It's about 780 million light-years away from Earth, and it's called the Taal Galaxy." Xiaona explained to Zhang Wenkai.

780 million light-years. Zhang Wenkai remembers that the nearest large galaxy to the Milky Way is the Andromeda Galaxy, which is about 250 million light-years away, three times more. My God, how far it is is simply unimaginable.

"Xiaona, why did you land on the earth?" After all, Xiaona's galaxy is so far away from the earth, and the time spent on the road alone does not know how long it took. Zhang Wenkai is very curious, and it is impossible to come here Far, to engage in aggression?It's unrealistic!Unless the leader of Cortana's galaxy has a cannon in her head.

"Looking for living planets and disseminating mother star technology, this is Xiaona's mission." Xiaona said calmly.

After listening to Xiaona's words, Zhang Wenkai still didn't quite believe it. Who would give his technology to others for free for no reason, but he really couldn't guess what the purpose was. The earth is so backward compared to the Taal Galaxy, and there is no such thing. Invasion is necessary!Can't figure it out.

"How does Motherstar technology spread?" Zhang Wenkai asked again.

Xiaona in the video said in a serious tone: "I need your help, sir."

Zhang Wenkai was very surprised and pointed at himself: "What can I help you?" If I can't help myself, who else can I help? "

"That's right, sir, it's you. Cortana has stored the advanced technology of the Tar Galaxy. Cortana will serve as your assistant to help you 'transform' your home planet." Cortana continued.

Let me ask, is it possible to 'transform' the earth? What a huge amount of work it is. If Xiaona really does what Xiaona said and Xiaona provides herself with advanced technology, then she can earn a lot of money. Money, in that case, wouldn't he be able to buy two mobile phones, one to make calls and one to play games? Zhang Wenkai has never told anyone about such a cool idea; when the time comes, he will open a company first and interview employees by himself. Finding faults; it was so satisfying, Zhang Wenkai wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and then asked: "Am I really good?"

"Yes, sir, you can change the world." Xiaona looked at Zhang Wenkai and said, before disappearing into the air.
