under one roof

33

The afterglow of the setting sun brought a touch of tenderness to this steel city.Spring is the best year of the year. In the evening when late spring is approaching early summer, people are much more lazy, and their hearts cannot be bound by reinforced concrete.

Yu Chen nestled at his workstation, typing code listlessly, his eyes glanced at the position near the door from time to time. At 05:30, the man was freed from the tense and dignified expression, stretched his arms upwards, took a long breath, seemed to be a little more relaxed, and flipped things on the table.Until he turned out a magnetic card, randomly copied it into his pocket, got up and walked out.

"Brother, are you going to eat?" Yu Chen stood up and asked.

"Ah." Rong Pu turned his head, "Do you still have work? Do you want to go together?"

"Okay!" Yu Chen quickly put on his meal card, and happily ran towards Rong Pu like a puppy.

There are usually not many people in the cafeteria during dinner time, and most of the people left are preparing to work overtime, and they will not stay too long after eating a hasty meal.There was news on the TV, half of them were singing and dancing, and half of the situation was turbulent.Rong Pu concentrates on eating and doesn't watch TV very much, Yu Chen has no chance to talk to him.He rotated several topics in his mind, and finally asked: "The NO.4 project will be established tomorrow, brother, do you know where you are allocated?"

"The system is safe." Rong Pu said, "I feel like I am a security door maker." After finishing speaking, he smiled helplessly.

Yu Chen said: "But I think safety is always more important than other things. If a product is developed and cannot guarantee its safety and stability, what good is the function no matter how powerful it is? NO.4 is no better than others. When When people really digitize themselves, information security is the top priority, and the teacher will ask you to do this because he values ​​you." He had just left school not long ago, and Zhang Jun did have some substantial mentoring So I kept calling him teacher obediently.Rong Pu came here two years earlier than him, and he would be amused by his rigidity.

Rong Pu rubbed Yu Chen's hair, and said: "But occasionally I have to do something else. Every time I am assigned to do this or that, no one has asked me what I really want to do. Important work What's the use? I don't like it."

"Then what do you like?" Yu Chen asked curiously.

Rong Pu propped his chin with one hand, tapped rhythmically with his fingertips, suddenly smiled, took out his mobile phone and placed it in front of Yu Chen.There was a short video in it, Rong Pu clicked the play button, and Yu Chen leaned over to watch it.The scene inside is probably Rong Pu’s home. There is only one host and monitor in front of him. The number of experiments is displayed on the monitor. Halfway through it started showing errors and the process had to be stopped.

"What is this?" Yu Chen asked, "This is not code thinking."

"Of course not, this is human thinking." Rong Pu put the phone back.

"What are you playing?"

"Xiao Yu, do you like to read science fiction?" Rong Pu said, "In fact, we have entered the era of intelligent networks many years ago, but I always feel that it still lacks something. Until NO.3, I Only then did I realize that they are all cold machines, created by humans, and need to be constantly updated and maintained by humans, but isn’t our era like this from the very beginning? Even at NO.4, we still need to maintain this order Is it unchanged? Artificial intelligence is not something in novels, we can do it, and we can even do it better.”

"But this is contrary to stability." Yu Chen said, "Also, I don't like watching science fiction."

"Then you are not cute at all." Rong Pu smiled.He is a gentle person, his eyes will bend when he smiles, and he didn't wear glasses when he came out. Fortunately, the degree of myopia is not very high.The eyes without that layer of cover are like water.He didn't mean anything malicious, he just made a joke about Yu Chen, but Yu Chen took it seriously, waved his hands hastily, and said to Rong Pu: "I didn't mean that!"

Rong Pu asked deliberately: "Then what do you mean?"

"I, I..." Yu Chen became nervous when Rong Pu stared at him, and when he was nervous, he stuttered, a faint red color crawled from his neck to his face, and then from his face to his ears, "I mean, I think There is still a distance between us and artificial intelligence. There may be a day, but at least it is definitely not now. It is a big project, not only in the scope of science, but also in sociology and ethics...Science can promote the development of society , but it does not define anything."

Rong Pu looked at Yu Chen meaningfully for a long time, and finally said with a smile: "Stupid."

Yu Chen lowered his head, feeling that he had said something stupid, so he could only stuff food into his mouth.Rong Pu didn't seem to want to continue discussing this issue, and asked, "What about you? What do you like to do?"

"I really like working on security systems..." Yu Chen said sullenly, "I thought I could be assigned to a group with you."

"What's so good about being in the same group as me?" Rong Pu said, "If you don't do well, you will be scolded by me. I am very strict."

"It's okay." Yu Chen replied in a low voice.

Since when did you feel that you see your brother in a different way?Probably dates back to when I was still studying.He is a complete science and engineering nerd, he doesn't like literature or poetry, and the ink in his stomach is very limited, but when he met Rong Pu in the laboratory for the first time, he suddenly understood what is meant by "spring breeze again" Nothing is more beautiful than your smile."Rong Pu has a kind of bookish air that will not appear on them. His appearance in a neat shirt bathed in the sun is soft and dazzling.

That kind of ignorant emotion secretly collided in Yu Chen's mind for a long time. He couldn't tell whether it was admiration or liking, so he could only follow Rong Pu blankly like a little tail. He wanted to have more love with Rong Pu. With time, when seeing Rong Pu, the mood will naturally improve a lot, but after thinking about it, I can only get along with Rong Pu in such an ordinary way, and I will be much sadder.

He has been wandering like this until now, and he is more and more easily satisfied. As long as he can work overtime with Rong Pu, he will not feel so tired. Human emotions are really elusive.

"Hurry up and eat, I have to go back to work after eating." Rong Pu said.

"Oh." Yu Chen hurriedly ate with a sullen head.He lowered his head, not daring to meet Rong Pu's eyes, and he missed Rong Pu's gentle and complicated eyes when he looked at him.

The next day's project establishment meeting was exactly as Rong Pu said, he was in charge of the security system. NO.4 is not an upgraded version of NO.3, but completely disassembled and rebuilt, which means to change the existing network environment and ecological situation, and create a new Internet life.The meeting was lengthy, and Rong Pu listened listlessly. He felt that these people had skills but no courage to create.In the previous evaluation meeting, he once mentioned his ideas to the senior management, but was rejected verbatim.He is very depressed, and does not believe that under the premise that he alone can touch the door of artificial intelligence, such a combination of strong human and financial resources cannot create a future.

He's tired of standing still.

After the meeting, Rong Pu looked at Yu Chen sitting on his seat with a nervous look, and went to have a look at him while pouring water, but Yu Chen's screen was black, so he stretched out his hand to him. There was a bounce in the head.Yu Chen screamed in shock, Rong Pu asked, "Why are you in a daze?"

Seeing that it was Rong Pu, Yu Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I'm thinking about development, it's so troublesome..."

"What's the trouble?" Rong Pu smiled, "You're the one who hacked into the company's system single-handedly, so it's pretty much the same thing. You didn't see Zhang Jun's dark face when the system alerted someone to hack."

Yu Chen also laughed, and finally relaxed a little, saying: "But he sent me an offer very generously, and welcomes me to join his team."

"After all, a world-class legal hacking team needs fresh blood."

"Well... I'm actually really happy."

"Because it's difficult to get a normal graduation visa?"

"No." Yu Chen shook his head, "Because I can be with senior brother again, senior brother covers me."

Rong Pu was taken aback for a moment, then he rubbed Yu Chen's hair helplessly and pamperingly, and said, "Stupid, senior brother can't protect you forever."

Yu Chen said: "Then let's go as far as we can."

Rong Pu hit Yu Chen's forehead with his backhand.

The NO.4 system is too large, and their plan is to complete it in stages.In the first stage of the primary development work, we encountered many problems, and everyone entered into a state of bitter abuse of others and self-abuse.Yu Chen works overtime every night until very late. He thinks that development is interesting, but the whole process of development is not full of creation. Someone must do the boring and tedious work, and this is precisely the cornerstone of the entire project.

Yu Chen struggles painfully at the desk every night, even if he is as smart as he is, he will sometimes resist work and have negative emotions.He would grit his teeth and continue writing, and often felt that his hard work would not touch anyone, but simply touched himself.

Today's work still needs some finishing touches, only Yu Chen and Rong Pu are left in the office, Yu Chen's sleepy eyelids are fighting, and he fell asleep on the table without paying attention while waiting for the process.Rong Pu was also waiting for the process, and stood up to relax while he was free.Seeing Yu Chen nestled on the table, he wanted to wake him up, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he couldn't bear it anymore.He stretched out his hand to gently smooth Yu Chen's messy hair, and then covered Yu Chen with the coat that was on the chair.The air conditioner was already turned on in the office, so it was cold at night like this.

It was a while after Rong Pu finished the work that he woke up Yu Chen. Yu Chen seemed to be confused in his mind, and couldn't tell the difference between south, east and north.Rong Pu asked: "The house you rented is so far away, how do you go back?" It took a long time for Yu Chen to digest Rong Pu's information in his brain, and said: "Then I won't go back... let's just stay overnight in the company , anyway, I have to get up early tomorrow."

"Hey, where can I sleep here?" Rong Pu said, "Then why don't you go back with me, and I'll live next to you."

"what?"

"Ah what, are you sleepy?" Rong Pu patted him, "Let's go!"
