"Yuxiu, what functions does this dog egg you developed have?" It can actually share the burden for its owner independently. This doesn't seem like the thinking of a normal robot.
Zhong Yuxiu glanced at Goudan and saw that he was holding a child in a standard manner; he was in a better state than a human, so it was no wonder that the old man thought too much.
"Grandpa, we needed Goudan to take care of the children before, so we modified his program. He will follow the program for the three children."
The old man looked thoughtful, and then asked, "Is the program so magical?"
"It's just a set of codes. Anyone with computer knowledge abroad should be familiar with what codes are. Different combinations of codes will produce different functions." Speaking of this, she couldn't help but reveal future developments. "Computers are already available, and we'll usher in the information age. They'll be used by police, the military, and government, and even civilians will gradually enter thousands of households."
Old Master Yan frowned. He believed what his granddaughter-in-law said. However, he knew how expensive computers were. How could they possibly reach so many households?
"Computers are so expensive, it's unlikely that they can enter thousands of households, right?" He was not confident enough to ask this question.
Zhong Yuxiu patiently explained, "Although it's expensive, as time progresses, it will inevitably become a civilian endeavor. In the future, wars won't be fought with firearms, but with information. Whoever has the most information will be the winner."
She couldn't say much else; that was all she could say. She was afraid the higher-ups had already considered this issue. However, since Old Master Yan retired, he no longer had any responsibilities, and the information he could receive was limited. Even though he still had some keen sense, he could no longer detect the higher-ups' intentions.
Yan Rushan only understood half of what he heard, but he seized the business opportunity.
"Since computers are becoming a civilian endeavor, can I also get involved in this field?"
Zhong Yuxiu nodded. "You can get in touch with the people in charge of the computer factory and keep an eye on it. If there's any interest in this area, and you have the financial resources and connections, and I have the R&D data, with a few minor modifications and the materials and labor in place, we can start production."
"Although computers are long-lasting items, our country has a large population; more and more people will come into contact with computers and buy them, so there is no need to worry about the products being unsold." Generation after generation has accepted the existence of computers, but computers are not indestructible; after a certain number of years, their parts will become scrapped.
It can be repaired, but repairs cost money; if it becomes unusable after being repaired several times, you have to buy a new one.
Moreover, computers have made work more convenient and more efficient; once you get used to it, you can't let it go. Writing by hand is too slow and a waste of time. Computers are so fast! Typing out with a click, isn't it faster than handwriting?
Yan Guofeng said, "That's true; however, with the current economic level, we can't see that prospect."
"Our people are very receptive and will adapt to policy changes quickly. Just like in previous years, when policies changed, everyone immediately backed down. But it's only been a few years since reform and opening up, and many people have become wealthy. They adapt when they're poor, and those who adapt succeed."
As long as there is change, the future is promising.
Yan Guofeng pondered for a moment, feeling that his eldest grandson's wife was right. Today's conditions are vastly different from those of the past. To live a good life requires adaptability, hard work, and dedication. And what do people do when they have money? With better food, clothing, and daily necessities, and extra cash to spare, they naturally crave better things, and even better things still make them want better. This is a universal human trait; understanding this will surely yield great results.
"Your analysis is correct, but this still requires a development process. Currently, only those within the system can use computers, and they are not used by major enterprises." Enterprises across the country are the majority.
"Once it's in use within the system, it will be used immediately as soon as computers are allowed to be used by civilians. It's just a matter of time. Rushan is starting now to recruit a group of computer talents, who will benefit greatly in the future."
Yan Rushan listened to it.
Yan Guofeng was quite tempted. If he were thirty years younger, he would do it without hesitation.
"If Dashan wants to do something, just do it. After the opening of the university, the first batch of students will graduate this year. It's a good time for you to gather them now. It would be even better if you can recruit some computer talents back."
Zhong Yuxiu couldn't help but smile. Talented people abroad enjoyed high salaries, but the computer industry abroad wasn't as advanced as in China. So what good would it do to invite them back? Most importantly, there was no guarantee they could be hired back.
How many people are willing to give up their high salaries and return to their home country to start over?
"Grandpa, there are enough talents in the country." Yan Rushan expressed his daughter-in-law's thoughts.
Yan Guofeng paused for a moment before understanding, "You're right. Domestically, we have enough. Our computer industry is already at the forefront. Domestic university students have also been enjoying the latest knowledge gained in the past two years."
In order to prevent the first batch of college students from wasting time, many people began to think of ways to reorganize the relevant knowledge points they had researched into books and introduce them into various universities.
Computer science majors are naturally included in this category.
Because of Zhong Yuxiu's sudden emergence, they have enjoyed decades of advanced technology and theories; perhaps they cannot realize it now, but in the future, they will find that China's computer knowledge has been ahead of the world so early.
"In that case, why not let Xiao Hai find an opportunity to invest in a computer company? He doesn't have to work with Rushan. The market is so big, let him contact people on his own."
He didn't think this way to let others compete with his eldest grandson for wealth, but because the market demand will be huge in the future, and more computer companies will definitely be born. In this case, why not make sure that his younger grandson has a better future?
Maybe this is how all old people are. If one brother is doing well, they will feel more distressed when the other brother is doing a little worse.
Zhong Yuxiu had no objection to this, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she waited for Yan Rushan to speak.
Yan Rushan had no objection to this. He had opened his company with several brothers, and although he was the company's largest shareholder, including his wife's shares, he was definitely the company's largest shareholder. However, it was inappropriate for Xiaohai to join midway.
"Let's see what Xiaohai thinks about this. If it's something stable and reliable, that would be fine too. After all, it'll provide an income in the future, and I can get married, have children, and have a house and a car."
Yan Guofeng nodded repeatedly. "That's exactly what I think. He's alone in the research institute. He has a salary, and his food, clothing, and other expenses are covered by the government. However, if the economy were more free, his children and wife would have a better life in the future."
"Yuxiu, don't overthink it. I'm an old man with one foot in the grave. My only hope is that they all live well. Dashan is lucky to have you. With you around, his life will be good. Xiaohai can't see what the future holds, or what kind of wife he'll marry. I don't expect his future wife to be as capable and smart as you, I just hope she can maintain the status quo. That's why I want him to develop early."
At least there will be no economic constraints.
