You are a black technology boss, you didn't say it sooner!

"World Animation Beneath the Wave: An Era Over."

Xiang Jia stood in the subway, bowed her head and typed on her mobile phone. She didn't grab any pillars or handles, and she stood firmly in the running subway—anyone who has been on the Beijing subway knows what's going on.

Xiang Jia was so tired that she couldn't do anything to stretch, she silently cursed in her heart: "This wicked Beijing subway really deserves its reputation."

In fact, Shanghai’s subway is not as good as Beijing’s. Xiang Jia has lived in Shanghai for many years, but his family is well-off.

She changed to a more comfortable position and continued typing with her head down.

"... The trend has spread to Japan. As of today, Deep Space has signed 32 licensing agreements in Japan. New technologies will be increasingly applied to Japan's animation industry. Now there are signs of a large number of unemployment for painters. ..."

"This morning, Japan's famous animation master announced on Twitter: An era is over."

"How much emotion, heaviness, and sadness are hidden in this sentence..."

"..."

Xiang Jia majored in journalism in college. Since her freshman year, she has been a contributor to several magazines and public accounts. She has been writing current affairs reviews and soft articles for more than three years, and she is proficient in business.

But today, halfway through writing this article, it is difficult to write, and she has mixed feelings in her heart.

There are thousands of lights and thousands of faces, including the laughter of Chinese animators and the crying of Japanese animators.Xiang Jia grew up watching Japanese anime, of course he felt sorry for those people.

"Did some find their homeland while others drifted away?"

"I wish them happiness, I wish everyone who is working hard to live must be happy."

Soon the subway arrived at the station, and Xiang Jia was wrapped in the crowd, almost floating out of the subway with both feet off the ground.

Standing outside, she put down her phone and let out a long breath.

Leave those complicated thoughts behind, look at the building in front of you, and cheer yourself up: "Deep space, here I come!"

Xiang Jia, a native of Shanghai, secretly came to Beijing to have the opportunity to work in deep space.

The interview was a few days ago.She is a senior student at a prestigious university. She has received many scholarships during her studies and has rich experience in contributing articles to magazines.

Today is her first day at work.

"From now on, I will be an intern in the public relations department of Deep Space Science and Technology! Come on!"

The Public Relations Department is a newly established department in Deep Space, and the manpower has basically just been recruited. The department is still in the process of running-in, and there is not much work.

Xiang Jia was assigned to the new media operation team. They said it was a team, but in fact there were only two people who joined her. The senior who took her was transferred from the operation department. He had been in charge of the new media account of Deep Space before.

Deep Space has no valuable new media accounts at all. The only account with tens of millions of fans is @fire, but this account is in the hands of fire himself.

So on the first day of work, a group of unemployed salted fish just sat and chatted in their seats.

"Hey, how long have you all been in the company?"

"I heard that we are a new department, and we are basically newcomers. Sister Chen, right?"

Ms. Chen, the manager of the public relations department, said: "Well, I brought two people from the original department, and the rest are new partners. Some of you have worked in foreign relations for several years and have rich experience, and there are also newcomers who have just graduated. Bai, it is fate to be able to come to deep space, and we will get along well and help each other... We are a company with great potential..."

After Sister Chen blabla finished speaking, everyone clapped and clapped, and then put their heads together to chat about gossip.

"Sister Chen, you've been working in the company for so long, have you ever met God Fire?"

"Yes, yes, what does fire look like, is it handsome or beautiful? If you only look at the back and listen to the voice, it shouldn't be ugly!"

"Fire showed his hand in the video, he is at the level of a male god!!!"

"Fire likes the little brother or the little sister, I have a chance to be pretty?"

Sister Chen: "..."

Sister Chen: "You want to eat farts, the fire office is not on the same floor as us, I have worked here for nearly a year, and I haven't even seen a single hair of fire."

Everyone: "Wow!"

"...What kind of reaction is this?" Sister Chen suddenly felt disgusted with her department, "I heard that only 9 people in the whole company have seen him."

Everyone: "That's cool!"

Sister Chen: "..." Are we really a company with great potential?

"Wait nine, which nine are they?" Xiang Jia was surprised.

In a company of nearly [-] people, only nine people have met the boss. Others think it's cool, but her family is a business, and she knows how incredible it is.

"Just the first nine people in our company. The current core group of seven people in the R&D department, and two senior executives."

"Two executives? Are there only two senior executives in our company?"

"Yeah, fire basically doesn't care about things, and things are handled by two vice presidents. The vice president of technology is called Xie Jin. He only cares about research and development, and we rarely see him. The other is Xia Huai. Although he is an HR in name, he is actually There are so many things in charge, a real power figure worthy of the name..."

Sister Chen suddenly froze halfway through her speech.

Xiang Jia:?

Sister Chen: "..."

Sister Chen: "Mr. Xia, good morning."

Xiang Jia hurriedly turned her head, and sure enough, she saw a capable young lady standing behind everyone, she looked 27 or [-] years old, she was beautiful and temperamental, her face was calm and imposing.

Xiang Jia was fascinated by her immediately, thinking that being young, beautiful and successful in her career, isn't this the kind of life she dreamed of.

Xia Huai looked at them and frowned, "Why is there no work for the whole department?"

This was so important, everyone switched states in a second and sat facing the computer. Xiang Jia also hurriedly turned around, and only glanced at the young lady quietly from the corner of her eye.

Unexpectedly, Xia Huai continued, "Since you have nothing to do, come with me."

Huh?

What's the matter, do you still have to stand as a punishment if you don't have a job?

Everyone followed out tremblingly, and followed Xia Huai to a large room.

Sister Chen whispered from behind: "This used to be a utility room, why did it suddenly get cleaned up?"

When everyone walked in, they were surprised.The room is covered in green screens from floor to ceiling, with two giant monitors in front of the room and weird… VR headsets on shelves next to it?

"Vive glasses!" Xiang Jia recognized immediately, "Wow, is this a virtual reality laboratory?"

"Yo, do you know me?" Xia Huai looked at the young girl.

Xiang Jia pointed to the ceiling, "That's an infrared camera, which is used to locate players. A normal set of Vive glasses only needs two infrared cameras, but here they are placed in a circle, which shows that the requirements for positioning are very high, obviously not for playing. Ordinary VR games."

She pointed to the green screen again, "The green screens all over the room should be for the convenience of keying and combining real characters into the game video."

Finally, he pointed to the shelf next to him, "I recognize all those devices, and the best VR headsets on the market are all inside. Of course, my favorite is vive."

"Have you ever played?" Everyone said unexpectedly, "It seems that you are a senior VR enthusiast."

Xiang Jia smiled modestly.

She's not a veteran VR enthusiast, she's just rich.

"Come and try." Xia Huai handed them the equipment one by one.

"Huh? It won't be all of us together?"

"It depends on your choice. You can play multiplayer games or single-player games. The list of games is here. There are still movies to watch when you are tired."

Everyone looked at the list, and then looked at Xiang Jia together, "Have you played it before, why don't you recommend it to us?"

Xiang Jia has really played all of them, pointing to these games one by one, they are all treasures.

Seeing that she understood so well, Xia Huai said reassuringly, "Okay, then you can take them to play, I still have work, so I'll go first."

"Wait—" Xiang Jia was confused.

Just, just leave?

The VP of the company brought them to play games and then went to work by himself? ? ?

A group of people looked at each other.

"Then... shall we play?"

"Just play... just play."

On the first day of employment, work content: play VR.

Of course, it's not that simple, after that everyone has to submit an after-play review of no less than 3000 words.

It was only later that everyone learned that all the departments of Deep Space lined up for the holiday and went to play VR for a whole day, and then they had to write experience reports.

A few days later, hundreds of reports were piled up on Lou Qingyan's desk.The planning department also thoughtfully made a summary for him.

Some people are playing VR for the first time, and they find it amazing, and the report is full of rainbow farts.Some people write things like primary school students’ works, I played xxx today, xxx is very fun, thank the company for allowing me to play xxx.

There are also serious analysis and unique views, such as Xiang Jia.

Lou Qingyan watched it for a long time, then yawned boredly, and sent a message to Xia Huai, asking her to pay more attention to the little girl named Xiang Jia.Xia Huai replied with an ojbk.

Lou Qingyan turned the chair and looked at the beautiful sunset outside the floor-to-ceiling windows. Such a colorful sky is simply a luxury in this city.

He closed his eyes, and all that appeared in his mind was the developed virtual system of the interstellar era, just like the sky tonight, colorful and brilliant.For today's earth, it is also an unattainable luxury.

However, luxury goods cannot be bought, and daily necessities can still be expected.

The wave of change in the animation industry has gradually begun to sweep the world, but the fire that caused this wave of events has been hidden, quietly promoting the development of China's animation industry behind the scenes.

But it was useless for him to hide.After this battle, fire and his DayDream Holdings have completely stood on the world stage, and have been included in the focus list by large companies all over the world.

The first time fire became popular internationally was because of the song "Morpheus", the second time it was because of Gu Changxi's concert, and the third time it was because of the movie "Ten Thousand Times Return".

For the first time, he was just the publisher of the song, not even the creator.The second time, although the brain-computer interface has created a miracle, it only shows that he has made a breakthrough in the field of brain-computer. It is still unknown whether this breakthrough can be applied.For the third time, the whole world went crazy, but it wasn't him, it was money that made the whole world crazy.

It was not until later that the industrial changes brought about by technological innovation were inevitable that people suddenly discovered——

This man's energy is much more exaggerated than they thought.

Changing an industry through a technology, what god can do such a thing?

Undoubtedly, this must not be the limit of fire, and countless people even suspect that what he has shown so far is only the tip of the iceberg of his true ability, and one day he will produce more and more shocking results.

Not to mention anything else, just look at the only subsidiary of Shenkong that has never done anything - Yuanshen Technology, which is making brain-computer hardware products.

It's been dormant for more than half a year, and I haven't even let a fart go. Is it just a display for fire to buy it back?Obviously not, this is a big move in the making.

Fire officially entered the sight of the top group of people in the world.

He is dissected every day on Twitter.

"Young Chinese, genius, research on artificial intelligence surpasses any laboratory in the world."

"Countless people have tried to decipher his code and software implementation principles, but no one has been able to succeed. It is reasonable to suspect that he uses brand-new algorithmic logic and mathematical formulas, and his mathematical attainments may also be at the forefront of the world."

"The 'echo dubbing' that was popular in China some time ago was most likely developed by him. Considering the magical function of AI pull film, it is speculated that fire is better at image recognition and natural language processing in artificial intelligence."

"It should continue to deepen the field of artificial intelligence. The most likely direction for the next step is the English version of 'echo dubbing', AI assistants, and conversational platforms."

"Definitely won't switch to other fields, unless he has eight brains."

"..."

In addition to the attention of large companies and the analysis of ordinary netizens, there is also a gossip circulating on social media.

It is said that "Time" magazine considered inviting Fire to appear on the cover of this issue, but the internal meeting of the magazine rejected the proposal, because Fire did not want to show his face to the outside world, and it was difficult for them to decide whether to put Fire on the cover without showing his face special case.

Regardless of whether this news is true or not, through this time, fire has completely become famous in the world.

It is not the kind of fame that is quickly forgotten after being popular for a short time, but the kind that has truly become a world celebrity, and no matter when it is mentioned, people will know it.

He failed to appear on the cover of "Time", but he received the cover and interview invitation of the domestic "People" monthly magazine.

The other party also intimately expressed that he could not show his face on the cover.

After Lou Qingyan flipped through the VR experience reports, he saw the invitation letter of "People" magazine pressed next to him.If he hadn't put it there to take a look occasionally, he would have forgotten about it.

The author has something to say:

Watching the Yunqi Conference last night, I was taking notes while revising the outline. Now I have to revise the outline according to the news all the time, otherwise the things I write will be very low and outdated.

Originally, I thought that the AI ​​chip was not in such a hurry and asked the protagonist to do it later, but Ali made a breakthrough in the AI ​​chip.Also, I imagined a cloud game based on cloud rendering earlier, and I didn't feel so anxious. It turned out that Huawei released a cloud computer this year, and there is no pressure to play Nishuihan with a 5G mobile phone.I really knelt down to these companies, can we wait for those of us who write novels (no what are you thinking

This article has been serialized for more than two months now, let me show you how many things happened in two months: Huawei released the Hongmeng system, breakthroughs in invasive and non-invasive brain-computer interfaces, Google breakthroughs in quantum computing, Tencent's Internet of Things system open source, Huawei Released the world's fastest AI training cluster, Ali released the world's fastest AI chip...

The biggest feeling after writing this article is that the development of science and technology is indeed changing with each passing day. The fourth industrial revolution has probably really begun, and history has reached a new turning point.

This article has been accumulated for more than a year. Some of the stalks are completely based on imagination, and some are real and relatively cutting-edge a year ago. It's all cold.
