The male secretary turned to Harry and asked, "Mr. Harry, there is a man named 'Finn' who wants to see you."

Harry took a sip of coffee, turned around and said calmly: "Let him come up, directly to my office."

The male secretary informed the front desk what Harry had said.The front desk received permission, said "Please wait a moment" to Chris, took out a temporary pass for him and inserted it into the card reader on the table. He typed a few times on the keyboard to modify the data, and then transferred the He took out a pass and handed it to Chris: "I've kept you waiting for a long time. This is a pass to go to Mr. President's office. He is waiting for you on the top floor."

Chris took the pass and looked back at the clock on the wall. Unknowingly, it was already a quarter past eight.There were not many people left in the long queue just now, so Chris randomly found a shorter queue and joined it.

The virtual projection in the center of the first floor of the Osborne Group was turned on, and a composite image of a white-haired woman appeared in the sky, and began to introduce the advantageous projects of the Osborne Group.It seems that people from the technical department have arrived and started the virtual projection.The first thing she introduced was the current core project of the Osborne Group, which is to transform the "electromagnetic transmission electrical network" in New York City.

In the Osborne Group, people are different, and the working hours for technical positions and office positions are also different.Most of the people still queuing up leisurely are clerks sitting in the office. The researchers and technical positions in the laboratory start work at eight o'clock. If they haven't clocked in yet, they are late.

He was almost in line, and just as Chris was thinking this, he saw a black man punching in at a gate next to him with an anxious expression.After punching in and entering the Osborne Group, he glanced at the clock worriedly and sighed.Even if I hurry up and hurry up, I will still be late after all.

The black man had not even taken two steps into the gate when a guy in a suit walked up to him. He didn't even turn his head when he saw the black man torturing him. One sentence: "Dillon, you're late."

The black man named Dillon turned around when he heard the voice, only to find that the man in a suit who had just spoken to his left had walked to his right, carrying a briefcase arrogantly. "The damn subway is too slow, sir," Dillon explained to the man in the suit.Judging from his expression, the man in the suit must be his boss.

"Have you not realized that the Osborne Group is now responsible for the energy supply of the entire New York City?" The man in the suit walked in front, chattering incessantly, "We have just won the bid, and the construction of the transmission network is a big project. , if I were you..."

"Mr. Smythe, Mr. Smythe, Mr. Smythe, listen to me." The black man in Dillon interrupted the man in the suit. "I submitted a large number of design plans for electrical transmission networks, and I noticed, The blueprints they used extensively were my designs.”

The man in a suit named "Smythe" stopped and stood on the steps. He turned around and looked down at Dillon at the bottom of the steps: "It sounds very powerful. Did you design the power grid? It was just taken away by them. ? Who are they?" His eyes slightly narrowed behind his glasses, staring at Dillon.

"Who else could it be? Someone must have stolen the data from my computer. Mr. Smythe, as you know, my computer suddenly self-destructed last time, and someone from the technical department confirmed it." Dillon explained. road.

"Well, I believe you, of course it's you." Mr. Smythe said arrogantly, making it clear that he didn't believe Dillon. In his heart, he was still thinking: Of course I believe it was you who designed it. After all, he took it away I am the one who destroyed your data and your computer.At this point, Smythe also said, "I'm still a 'white knight'."

When Di Long heard these words, his fists clenched suddenly.He resisted the idea of ​​rushing up to teach the hateful guy in front of him a lesson. "Now, go to work for me." After saying that, Smythe left without looking back, leaving Dillon looking at his back unhappily.

Ti Long, who was in a bad mood, walked to the elevator. The elevator on the left was currently around the [-]th floor. It was still going up and had to wait for a long time.The elevator on the right is going down to the third floor and will be there soon.Di Long sighed, this was probably the luckiest thing that happened to him so far today.

Entering the open elevator, Dillon pulled his tie.There are no buttons in the elevator, just a screen where the buttons were.On the screen was the virtual composite woman who had just appeared in the lobby on the first floor. She asked Di Long: "Which floor are you going to?"

"Floor 74." "Thank you."

Dillon pushed up his glasses, which had slightly slipped from the bridge of his nose due to gravity, and said to the screen.This elevator is a trial model. It is an experimental item for the Osborne Group to test the intelligence of the artificial intelligence developed by the Osborne Group - that is, the synthetic woman - to test her voice recognition ability.

Unfortunately, this artificial intelligence named "Granny" by the group's current president Harry Osborn is still not as good as Stark Industries' Jarvis.Due to various problems such as program algorithms and server strength, she had to use standard pronunciation without an accent in order to recognize the floor.

It is precisely because of this that more people who need to take the elevator are still accustomed to taking another elevator next door that is not equipped with an artificial intelligence floor recognition system. Especially during peak hours, when there are more people and it is chaotic, there will always be some other sounds, which will affect the The floor recognition effect is not as fast as pressing the button directly.

"Hey, wait a minute!" A male voice came from outside the elevator, "Help press the elevator button!" Dilong heard clearly and quickly stretched out his hand to stop the elevator door that was about to close, "Okay." This is also the artificial intelligence One of several disadvantages of smart elevators.Without physical buttons, even if the voice is simple, it is still not fast and convenient enough.

"Thank you, thank you." Chris walked in with a cup of hot coffee that he had brought into the Osborne Group from a paper bag. "Huh, I almost missed it. Otherwise, I would have to wait for another elevator, my God. , more than 50 floors and still rising, how long will it take to wait?”

"The elevator is very fast, but if you go up one level and then down another, it may take close to 10 minutes. I tried." Dillon pushed up his glasses.He himself is actually a very active person with rich imagination, but he also has certain social barriers and is not good at expressing his inner thoughts.
