Fei Changyuan's explanation reduced Chen Yan's worries to a certain extent.
Of course, Chen Yan has been working for two years and is no longer at the age where he believes everything others say.
Therefore, Chen Yan still has some reservations about Fei Changyuan's explanation.
This reserved attitude was not because he suspected Fei Changyuan had any bad intentions towards him, but was purely out of instinctive self-protection.
"By the way, now that Hope has developed its own anthropomorphic personality, I can't put off what I told you yesterday for too long. Even though the priority right now is preparing for evacuation, Hope's affairs must be put on the agenda."
Fei Changyuan brought up another matter.
Seeing Chen Yan's bewildered expression, Fei Changyuan couldn't help but twitch his lips and sighed, "How come you're so young, but your memory is worse than an old man like me? I told you yesterday that it's impossible to unleash the full performance of Hope with the current hardware configuration of the Brilliant smart bracelet.
I was thinking yesterday that Hope's evolution would be a long process. Over the next few years, occasionally replacing parts wouldn't be a big deal. But Hope's evolution has far exceeded my expectations, and replacing parts can't be delayed any longer.
After all, the Brilliant smart bracelet currently carries Hope's core program. You could think of Hope as a human soul, and the Brilliant smart bracelet as Hope's body. Hope is currently only operating at around 20% of its capacity, which is a huge waste.
Even with an internet connection, Hope's capabilities would still be limited by the hardware of the smart bracelet. Without upgrading the smart bracelet's hardware, the only way to maximize Hope's performance was to remove the main Hope program from the bracelet and transfer it to a new master server.
But then, you can't carry 'Hope' with you, and using it will become extremely inconvenient. So, overall, upgrading the hardware of the smart bracelet as soon as possible is the best solution."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yan subconsciously looked down at the smart bracelet on his wrist and asked in confusion, "Can't we use a branch program? For example, transfer the main program of 'Hope' to a main server, and then let 'Hope' implant a subroutine in the smart bracelet?"
"As long as the subroutine remains connected to the main program, it's fine. Personally, I won't be using 'Hope' very intensively anyway, so the subroutine will definitely meet my daily needs. And the main program will have more room to maneuver. Is that okay?"
Fei Changyuan smiled and said, "In theory, there's no problem. But in practice, if you really want to do this, you have to ensure that the main program and sub-program are connected to the Internet. If the network is disconnected, the sub-program will run independently. Compared to the main program, the sub-program cannot have true intelligence.
But the requirement of staying connected...at least in the current world, it's simply impossible. Even the five top powers can only lay out a regional network within their occupied territories. Once outside of their occupied territories, even the top powers are powerless."
Chen Yan nodded slowly, indicating that he understood, and then asked, "Then where should I go to find suitable hardware? Do I need to try to enter the core area of the city?"
"no!"
Before Fei Changyuan could speak, Qin Yourong stopped him with a startled voice as if she had been electrocuted.
"Forget the core area of the city. Even the fringe area where we live is very dangerous! Aside from Brother Xu, none of us are even allowed to collect supplies in the fringe area! A Level 2 Awakener, if you encounter a Level 2 zombie or mutant creature above Level 2, you will definitely be in great danger. I won't allow you to take such a risk!"
Qin Yourong had a serious expression on his face, and his attitude was full of unquestionable attitude.
Fei Changyuan agreed, "Rongrong is right. For an Awakened One to venture deep into the city's core area is tantamount to suicide. One must at least become a Dominator before attempting to venture into the city's core area."
Let's put it this way. We held a small meeting last night to clarify the responsibilities of each member of the group during the period of preparation for evacuation. Yao Shan and Yao Yun were responsible for finding spare parts.
How about you, Rongrong, accompany Xiao Chen and join Yao Shan and Yao Yun's team? Although they're mainly responsible for finding battery packs and car parts, maybe they can also find parts for smart bracelets?"
Qin Yourong thought about it carefully and agreed: "Okay, I can take this opportunity to help Chen Yan familiarize himself with the surrounding environment."
Chen Yan certainly had no objection to this. He could learn to adapt to this wasteland world and get familiar with the brother and sister in the small group as soon as possible. The key was that the mission sounded very low in danger and was indeed very suitable for him.
Then, clapping his hands, Chen Yan said with a smile, "I'll listen to Rongrong. I'll do whatever Rongrong arranges. But this should be considered as my official joining our small group, right?"
"Of course, and besides Grandpa Fei, you are the most important person in the group!"
Qin Yourong hugged Chen Yan's arm and said sincerely.
Chen Yan knew very well that the reason why Qin Yourong and Fei Changyuan attached so much importance to him was that not only did Fei Changyuan directly give him the real AI that he had finally succeeded in after a lifetime of research, but Qin Yourong also tried every means to please and satisfy him physically, striving to make him have enough attachment to this place.
In the final analysis, all of this is because he can provide the most scarce and precious materials in the wasteland world!
It is no exaggeration to say that at present, the relationship between him and the small group is a very pure exchange of interests, without any emotion involved.
Perhaps in the future, as we have known each other for a longer time and have experienced more things, we will be able to develop real feelings for each other, but it is absolutely impossible to accumulate real feelings now!
Very normal.
At least in Chen Yan's opinion, this is very reasonable.
In fact, in many cases, interest relationships are more solid than emotional relationships.
Emotional relationships based on interests can often go a long way.
However, most interest relationships based on emotional relationships will lead to emotional breakdown.
So Chen Yan is very satisfied with the current situation and plans to increase his efforts.
"Since I'm a member of the group, I'll treat everyone to a nice meal tonight to celebrate my joining the group. How do you think?"
Chen Yan suggested.
Qin Yourong's eyes lit up when he heard this and asked, "Really?"
"Of course it's true."
"Wow! That's great! Then I'll go tell them? They'll love you!"
"Go ahead. It doesn't matter if they love you or not. Just love me to death."
"Well...I'll try my best!"
Qin Yourong clenched his little fist with full energy.
