MT company headquarters.
The company's president, Wang Bohan, was pacing anxiously in the office until a middle-aged man wearing black-framed glasses pushed the door open.
"President."
"How is it? Have you contacted anyone?" Wang Bohan asked anxiously.
"No." The middle-aged man is Du Tianqi, the R&D director of MT Company.
"No, why haven't we contacted him yet?" Wang Bohan slammed the table fiercely, "Who is this Ri An? Who sent him to mess with our company?"
"President, I don't think he wants to destroy our company." Du Tianqi said.
"Isn't that right? His algorithm has been on Starnet for two days. I just received news that our rival company has already started upgrading its products." Wang Bohan said angrily, "We MT have always been the pioneers of the mimicry sensing system. In order to upgrade the sixth-generation mimicry sensing system, we have been researching for a year and spent countless manpower and resources. The new generation of products that have just been launched cost hundreds of billions of yuan."
"Mr. Wang, please calm down. If this person is an engineer from a rival company, there is no need for him to post this upgrade algorithm online. He only needs to upgrade the system within his own company and then launch it federally. The effect will be achieved anyway. Why go through so much trouble?" Du Tianqi analyzed calmly.
"Then what do you think...why did he do this?" Wang Bohan also slowly calmed down.
"I tend to think that the other party did it unintentionally." Du Tianqi said, "I have carefully read the information of this person named Ri An. He was introduced to Apollo.com six years ago. He was active for a while after entering the website, and then disappeared. Six years later, he posted information on the website twice. The first time was a request for help, and the second time was to publish this formula algorithm. The interval between the two was only three days. And his first request for help was about the key algorithm in our company's mimicry sensing system. So I suspect that he happened to be studying the mimicry sensing system and then changed the algorithm."
"Just by chance? Changed the algorithm?" Wang Bohan could hardly believe what he heard. "You led a whole R&D department to research something for a year, and they upgraded it for you in three days? Then what are you, trash?"
Du Tianqi looked unhappy after being scolded, but he couldn't refute.
"Okay, okay, there's no point saying this now. Just tell me how to solve this problem," Wang Bohan asked.
"The algorithm that Rihan published on Starnet has been obtained by several hostile companies. They will definitely complete the system upgrade in the shortest time possible. At this time, even if we also upgrade the system, we cannot completely recover the losses. The only way is to find a better algorithm and directly upgrade the mimicry sensing system to the eighth generation." Du Tianqi said.
"Does your R&D department have any ideas?" Wang Bohan asked.
"No."
"No, no, what the hell are you talking about?"
"We don't have it, but Ri'an can." Du Tianqi said, "If my guess just now is true, this Ri'an can really upgrade our algorithm within three days, which means that he has an unparalleled talent in this area. If he takes action, it shouldn't be difficult to upgrade the system again."
"Then you should quickly go find some people to hack into the website and find out his address." Wang Bohan said anxiously.
"President, you must not do that. Apollo.com was founded fifty years ago by three young scientists. Fifty years have passed, and they have all become bigwigs in their respective industries. Not to mention that we can't hack into the website, even if we could, we wouldn't dare to do so." Du Tianqi quickly advised.
"Then we have to find someone." If there was any other way, he didn't want to do such an illegal thing.
"I have filed a complaint with the website. The algorithm released by Ri'an has a direct impact on our company, so the appeal should be approved. As long as the appeal on the website is approved, the website will help us contact them." Du Tianqi said.
“Alas.” Wang Bohan sighed. There was no other way. “Let’s find the person first. If he can really upgrade the algorithm again, we must ask him to help us no matter what the cost. This guy might be trying to blackmail us on purpose.”
Federal University, Lab.
Yan Hao was having lunch when the computer terminal suddenly rang, indicating that there was a new email.
Yan Hao glanced at the sender: "Babyworm? I seem to have some impression of this name."
Yan Hao did not continue to recall, but directly clicked on the content of the email: [Good day, go to Apollo.com. ]
Apollo.com? Yan Hao suddenly cried out, remembering who this person called Babi Chong was. This person was the netizen who often helped him answer questions and solve doubts in the school forum. It was also because he recommended Apollo.com to himself that he was able to enter this website. If we count from the last life, he has not contacted this netizen for almost 20 years, so he didn't remember him all of a sudden.
Yan Hao quickly logged into Apollo.net. As soon as he logged in, the background began to emit a constant "beep beep" notification sound.
Lots of short messages?
The notification sound lasted for two minutes before it stopped. Yan Hao opened the website's short message backend, and hundreds of messages instantly filled up his mailbox.
What's going on?
There were too many messages in the mailbox. Yan Hao opened a few of them and found that they were all asking to add friends. Yan Hao didn't like to contact strangers, and he didn't know the situation, so he naturally wouldn't add friends casually.
Just when Yan Hao was about to quit and send an email to ask Babi Chong, a friend request suddenly popped up from the background of the website: [I am Babi Chong. ]
Yan Hao's eyes lit up and he quickly clicked to approve it.
Babi Chong: [You are finally online. ]
Good day: [What happened? Why do so many people want to add me as a friend? ]
Babi: [Didn’t you check your mailbox? ]
Good day: [I only opened a few of them, all of which were to add friends, and I didn’t have time to read the rest. ]
Babi: [Alright, stop reading now. I'll explain it to you briefly.]
Then Babi Chong briefly explained the series of reactions caused by the algorithm that Yan Hao posted on the website.
Babi Chong: [Is this algorithm really an improvement on your previous algorithm? ]
Good day: [Yes, I have been researching the mimicry sensing system recently, and then I bought a new robot from WT Group and studied their system. During the research, I gained some insights and made some improvements. But it was far from what I expected, so I thought it was useless, so I just posted it online. ]
Babius: [……]
Babi Chong: [I haven't seen you for six years. You are acting like a Versailles. ]
Yan Hao: [What?]
Babi Chong: [You are such a useless thing, you are going to bankrupt WT Group. Their company has filed a complaint against the website.]
Yan Hao was shocked: [Bankruptcy, I didn’t expect this, what should I do then? ]
Babi Chong: [The website has regulations that all information posted on the website cannot harm the interests of others or cause unnecessary disputes.]
When Yan Hao thought about the fact that he had almost bankrupted a company, he became panicked: [Did I break the law? ]
Babius: [……]
Babi Chong: [If you had broken the law, the federal police would have come to you long ago. Although your algorithm has damaged the interests of the MT Group, it does not constitute a crime. After all, your research on mimicry is just a little ahead of theirs, so you published it for free. MT can't do anything to you legally, but your actions have indeed damaged their interests and broken the rules of the website, so the site owner may kick you off the site.]
Yan Hao: [I don’t want to leave the website.]
Although Yan Hao only browsed the website for one day, he gained a lot of knowledge that he could not get outside. He liked it here and was reluctant to leave.
Babi Chong: [The people from MT company contacted you through the website owner. If you can reach a settlement with the people from MT company, solve this problem, and let them withdraw the complaint voluntarily, then it is possible.]
Yan Hao quickly asked: [How to reconcile? ]
Babi Chong: [Under the current situation, unless you can develop an algorithm that is stronger than the one you released, and sell it exclusively to MT companies, so that their company can continue to maintain its leading position in the market and recover the losses this time.]
All we need to do is come up with an algorithm that is stronger than this one? That's easy.
Yan Hao: [No problem with that. Give me half an hour and I can make it.]
The Babi worm was silent for half a minute before sending a message: [Half an hour?]
Yan Hao: [Yes, in fact, the algorithm can be improved, but it is too far from my requirements, so I did not continue, but I have always had the idea. ]
Babi Chong: [Then add the account of the R&D director of MT Company and talk to him in detail. ]
Then Babi Chong sent another string of account numbers.
Yan Hao said thank you and added Du Tianqi as his friend. His friend request was accepted almost instantly. Just as Yan Hao was thinking about how to apologize, a long message came over.
Du Tianqi: [Good morning, teacher. I finally got in touch with you. We have been so anxious these past two days. Could you please give me your contact number? I have something very important to tell you.]
Contact number? Yan Hao is not very good at dealing with people, and he resisted: [Sorry, can we talk online? ]
Du Tianqi immediately replied: [Sure, sure, as long as you don't disappear.]
When Yan Hao saw that the other party agreed, his impression of Du Tianqi improved a lot, and his nervousness was greatly relieved.
The other party seemed very reasonable and did not scold him for the trouble he had caused. However, when he was friends with the other party, he had already prepared himself to be scolded by the other party.
Yan Hao thought about what Babi Chong had just said to him, and quickly wrote: [My friend told me that as long as I give you a better algorithm, this problem can be solved, right? ]
When Du Tianqi saw the message, he was stunned at first, and then his hands trembled with excitement as he typed.
Du Tianqi: [Yes, yes, as long as you can sell us a brand new algorithm exclusively, any price is fine. I just hope you can provide us with this algorithm as soon as possible.]
Yan Hao: [I have a ready-made algorithm, I can give it to you in half an hour.]
After seeing the news, Du Tianqi opened the door of the R&D department and went to the office of the CEO who had scolded him so much that morning: "CEO, we are saved."
Wang Bohan glanced at the message record and was also shocked: "He can give it to us in half an hour, which means he has a ready-made algorithm. This Rihan has indeed upgraded the mimicry sensing system to the eighth generation, but deliberately released the seventh generation to disrupt the market in order to sell it at a high price. It's insidious, too insidious."
Du Tianqi: "Then what should we do?"
Wang Bohan: "What else can I do? Just pay the price and buy the thing." Even though he knew that the other party was raising the price on purpose, this thing was life-saving and he had to buy it no matter what the price was.
Du Tianqi: "Then how much is appropriate?"
Wang Bohan gritted his teeth and said, "Three hundred million."
Du Tianqi was afraid that Yan Hao would have to wait too long, so he immediately sent the amount: [Teacher, we are willing to spend 300 million star coins to buy your algorithm.]
When Yan Hao saw the news, he was a little confused. He had clearly done something bad, so why did the other party return the money to him? Moreover, there were still 300 million yuan, which was enough to buy a third-level mecha.
Yan Hao: [I was the one who caused this incident. You don’t have to pay me.]
Yan Hao didn't despise money, but he sincerely felt that this matter was caused by him, and it would be unfair for him to take more money.
Du Tianqi was furious when he saw Yan Hao's reply: "This person is too shameless. Three hundred million is not enough. Add another hundred million."
Du Tianqi sent a message as instructed: [Good morning, teacher. Our company is very sincere. What do you think of 400 million? ]
Yan Hao was even more confused. He even raised the price: [I don’t want any money.]
Wang Bohan saw that this guy was still not satisfied, so he was so angry that he directly typed: [Five hundred million!!]
Why is it that the more he refuses, the more money the other party gives him? Yan Hao scratched his head, looking confused.
Du Tianqi: [If you have no objection, please send the formula as soon as possible, I need it urgently! ! ]
Yes, let’s talk about the money later, let’s give the things to them first.
Yan Hao: [I will send it to you through the website backend in half an hour.]
After saying this, Yan Hao went offline to write a new program.
Because this matter was caused by him, Yan Hao felt very guilty, so he planned to follow MT's existing procedures, directly upgrade the system with the new algorithm, and then send the new system directly to them. In this way, they can use it directly after taking it.
The author has something to say: Yan Hao: I don’t want to make money.
