doomed in dream

Caoyan District can be regarded as an urban area, but Daji Street is in the outskirts of the district.

If he wants to go to the meeting alone without worrying about whether he will be abducted by black-hearted companies, Chen Jiuqi will of course use Tianyancha or Aiqicha to check the company's positioning in advance.

After presumably excluding the bag company and other possibilities, Chen Jiuqi drove to the address given by Huihui Information Technology Co., Ltd. After parking the car in the marked parking space on the side of the road, he observed the appearance of the company from the opposite side of the gate.

It should be said that the area is not small, but compared with the company buildings in ordinary science and technology parks, it is more like the appearance that state-owned enterprises like——

Instead of those outer glass curtain walls and light LED lights with sci-fi colors, a solid building was built by imitating the "early ancient" ritual vessel pottery gui in the garden-like scent of birds and flowers.

There are not many people coming in and out. After all, it is the weekend, and people work overtime, so it is still the prime time for work. The people who come in and out are more like customers or suppliers who come to handle business temporarily than employees, but they seem to be in a normal state and people are relatively normal. decent.

Chen Jiuqi took the appointment email to the reception room. The doorman was an upright young guy. After typing a few times on the computer, he replied: "Go inside, the first room on the right on the first floor is the lounge, etc. Someone will come get you."

This is not quite like the style of a state-owned enterprise. There is no landline in the reception room and only the computer is used. Well, Chen Jiuqi doesn't know the computer model, but the computer looks like a brick old machine, but it doesn't look old at all. I don't know how to do it. Arrived, a bit inconsistent.

The door on the first floor is ordinary automation, but other facilities in the building are much more advanced, compared with its solid appearance, it can be said to be gaudy.

Four sightseeing elevators are installed back to back in the center. From the ground floor, you can see the skylight pouring from the glass skylight above the elevators.

Each floor of the office area is arranged around elevators, more like the structure of a shopping mall, which is flashy as an office building.

The invited Zhao Xianchan came down quickly. She accompanied Chen Jiuqi to call the elevator, and the intelligent system with full coverage of technology can be seen along the way.

"Your company is quite big." Chen Jiuqi spoke up.

Zhao Xianchan showed some arrogance, but the kind that is not too annoying, similar to the simple-minded engineer who shows off the X-ray fluorescence spectrometer worth several million in his chemical laboratory. Dealing with customer feedback: "Because our computing facilities are relatively small, we need more partition space for storage."

In the reception room, Zhao Xianchan asked Chen Jiuqi to sit down, and then poured her a glass of water: "Please use."

Chen Jiuqi agreed, took a sip and put it down, and asked her pre-emptively, "So what's the specific situation of this internal test?"

Zhao Xianchan replied proficiently: "Because the computer detected your high resistance, it automatically ejected you from the closed beta world for safety. Please refer to this contract for how you can join the closed beta."

The contract she handed over was not thick. On the contrary, in Chen Jiuqi's work experience, it was so thin that it could be regarded as perfunctory. However, Chen Jiuqi turned to the bottom first, and his eyes moved to the bottom. It was really his signature.She went back to read the content of the contract, and asked casually, "So you can't just restore my memory, so I know what's going on?"

"The implementation cost is a bit high. The memory area implanted in the system is separate from the commonly used real memory area. We did not authorize the commonly used area, so it was only temporarily blocked at that time, and it could only be restored once."

Chen Jiuqi let out a "hmm" and continued to look at the contract. The contract was written briefly, but it explained that these dream worlds were simulated and generated by Huihui Information Technology Co., Ltd. The main technology is DNA computer and its supporting equipment, including digital storage world, fluorescent label calculation chips etc.

Back to Information Technology Co., Ltd. is responsible for running the part of the digital storage world, and plans to launch some entertainment software at the same time as the launch. Dream World is the blockbuster game it intends to release.

In addition to testing the game, internal beta users are also testing the stability of the medical version of the DNA computer for injection on the basis of their existing genotyping technology. If all goes well, it will be conducive to the subsequent use of this method for gene therapy.

Chen Jiuqi, as Party B who signed the contract, voluntarily provided an infrequently used memory area to Huihui Information Technology Co., Ltd. for implanting DNA computers. For the time being, the computer does not have an open interface so that Chen Jiuqi can directly direct the computer with his own brain. However, Party A returned information Technology Co., Ltd. promises that when its digital storage world is launched, it will give priority to providing interface services for Party B to realize the extension or expansion of the human brain.

"Then you show me the contract to let me know what's going on, don't you have real memories?" She smiled, "Does this count as revisiting your company's business secrets?"

"Actually, this is just a basic contract. We still believe in your reputation. I wonder if we can solve your previous concerns in the dream about this part first?"

"My problem is that another person appeared in my game. In the dream, she has realistic skills, experience, and personality, but in reality she doesn't know anything about the dream world—she is also your internal beta tester. user?"

Zhao Xianchan nodded: "Yes, but she has a different contract with you. She also authorized us to implant computers in the memory area that is not commonly used, but it is mainly used for the intelligent construction of the game field, and for her With a one-way partition of the memory area, her game memory will not be read synchronously in reality like yours before the end of the closed beta."

"I don't think it's considered synchronous reading in reality. After waking up, the memory will be blurred." Chen Jiuqi suddenly thought of some more important security issues, "My first entertainment world, repeatedly entering the trigger reading memory When you have concussion-like symptoms, this discomfort and its potentially serious risks, isn’t it”

"Well, we also received your health monitoring and report at that time, and it was from then on that we optimized the logic of memory reading and storage overnight.

Our original design is that in order to avoid affecting real life, we will block the game memory in batches according to the round, and only read it at a certain node in the multi-week game of the dream world;

The current design is to fuzzify and unravel every day. It is not convenient for me to describe the specific implementation methods in detail, but I believe that you can still have a good experience with the new reading and storage. "

Chen Jiuqi agreed, and made a final confirmation: "Hey, there shouldn't be any sequelae, right? If you cooperate with the relevant departments of genetic medicine, this safety can still be guaranteed?"

"of course."

"Let's get back to business, that person appeared in my dream—since she is the blueprint for the game field and not the player—then why did you put her in? Also, if I happen to know her, isn't it too coincidental?"

"It was my negligence," Zhao Xianchan said in the lead, but her next explanation made Chen Jiuqi, who was complaining and questioning the image of a difficult customer, almost overwhelmed, "I just forgot to say, this, it was you who Provide us with several optional contacts, and then we will contact you after evaluating the priority, which is equivalent to signing a contract derived from your contract."

"Unexpectedly." After Chen Jiuqi finished speaking, he propped his chin and thought for a while, "So you haven't said the purpose of projecting her in, and the one-way partition of the memory area is fine, please answer the previous question first. "

Zhao Xianchan took out a white strip from her pocket, tapped it, and an operation screen was projected. She entered some codes on it, and then pressed a button on the table, and a computer appeared on the table ——

At this time, Chen Jiuqi finally understood why Baoan's computer looked so brick-and-mortar but was brand new.

"So the DNA computer looks like this?" Chen Jiuqi asked curiously, "Is the one implanted in the brain a miniature version?"

"Oh no, the implant is indeed a DNA computer, and its computing power and energy intake all depend on DNA molecules;

This is only an internal product that is more suitable for docking DNA computer data, and it does not have the characteristics of DNA computers that use biomolecules as calculation materials. After Zhao Xianchan explained, he slowly answered Chen Jiuqi's original question, "Why choose someone you care about to set up the game field? This is an idea of ​​game planning. I don't know much about technology. Say that we have interviewed and surveyed candidates before prioritizing for you, and we have prioritized the one who may need to contact you more. "

"Need? If it's not 'want', what is this, psychological interference? This has nothing to do with the test content of your game, right?"

"Our leadership means that we also want to explore its social value as much as possible."

Chen Jiuqi could accept this answer. In fact, she could accept all the other party's rhetoric today instead of thinking it was crazy, because she understood the concept of DNA computer.

In the dream, when Chen Jiuqi discussed the exploration route with Qu Fengyang and Yan Ning, she once thought that if in reality, she used a computer to solve the genetic algorithm of the traveling salesman problem, she could get a solution quickly.

The traveling salesman problem is a very famous graph theory problem. It assumes that there is a merchant who sells products to some cities. It is required to pass through all cities at the same time and only pass through each city once. The path cannot be repeated, and then find the shortest path.

The Genetic Algorithm, which Chen Jiuqi thought of but was not very proficient in using, is one of the fastest solution methods, but the accuracy is not enough.

It was in 1994 that the scientist Adleman used DNA molecular coding and biochemical reactions to solve this problem that traditional electronic computers could not solve in principle. Since then, he has started the development and research of DNA computers. By 2000, The first DNA computer is already here.

Chen Jiuqi, who can quickly think of the traveling salesman problem, is of course no stranger to the concept of DNA computers. She believes that she was able to sign the contract at the beginning, and the other party must have provided more details and hardware to convince her. She allows herself to believe that past judgments.
