Chapter 724 Jack’s little plan for the future

The story of the great writer and his muse will continue. It is foreseeable that the ambiguity and pull between them will continue for a long time in the future. , providing fun and conversation topics for their relatives and friends.

But at the same time, outside their small world, the lives of other people will continue, telling their own interesting stories.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" A series of shooting sounds echoed in the basement. Jack pressed the button, and the motor drove a thin steel cable to pull the target paper back in front of him.

“90 points, good grades, you are the best student I have ever taught.”

Hearing Jack's praise, Alexis took off her soundproof earmuffs and smiled, her eyes turning into two crescent moons, "Have you taught many people to shoot? Jack."

"For now, it's just you. One." Jack made a face, making the little girl very happy.

"My marksmanship is also very good. I can teach you too." Kassel, who was sitting aside to rest, felt a little depressed. He always felt that his little cotton-padded jacket had a tendency to defect.

"But Jack is the best marksman I have ever seen. I have only seen in your novels the scene where ten bullets were fired and only a hole was left in the bullseye." Alexis just said I saw with my own eyes how badly my father and Jack lost in a bet.

Casel gritted his teeth and said, "If you bet on a super LCD TV, I don't believe your performance will always be so stable."

"No more gambling. I'm afraid that the proceeds from your next 'Nicky Hitt' series won't be enough to repay your gambling debt."

You can't catch all the money. Cassel has already lost all his money just now. The electrical equipment in the entire kitchen, as well as the tables, chairs and benches in the attached restaurant, were all expensive and high-end goods, which was enough to make him feel pain for a long time.

The three of them left this small underground shooting range with only four 20-meter-long shooting tracks. The rumbling sound of decoration outside was deafening.

This is the future new office of Jack’s wanted criminal team. Currently, the renovation progress is less than half completed. The first and second floors have just completed the work of burying water and electricity pipes in the walls, and the progress is the fastest. The fastest thing is this huge underground garage.

The entire team is currently tentatively set up with a maximum of six people and a few cars. After removing part of it to be used as a future server room, Jack allocated nearly half of the remaining area and built the building they just used. This small indoor shooting range,

In the future, what they will face will be extremely vicious people who are on the FBI's wanted list. Any unexpected situation may happen. Jack cannot conquer everyone, so he is very concerned about maintaining the status of his team members. .

In addition to this underground shooting range, he also planned a large gym on the first floor. In addition to daily fitness equipment, there is also a fighting training room similar to the one that Hannah had specially set up at home.

It can be said that Jack has not wasted a penny of the funds allocated from the New York office, and there are even a lot of shortcomings. For example, the server room he reserved can only be put in for the time being. An ordinary server.

In Justin's idea, if she wants to fully utilize her abilities, a small supercomputer is indispensable. Although it does not need to have the crazy computing power of a laboratory supercomputer, the cost is conservatively estimated. It starts with a million dollars, and there is no upper limit.

Jack didn’t dare to think too much about this for the time being. Firstly, the FBI was not taken advantage of, allowing them to squander funds so falsely for personal gain. Secondly, it was difficult for him to explain the reason for a small action team hunting down wanted criminals. A separate computer center needs to be established outside of the FBI system.

All this stems from his worries about a certain drama that year. The main plot of "Person of Interest" took place in New York, plus the news about John Reese's fake death that he obtained during his brief cooperation with the CIA. Although Harold Finch is still in and out of public view, there are no rumors of injuries due to the bombing, and his partner Nathan is also alive and well. This is consistent with the plot line of the original show. Some are not quite right.

But Jack has long been accustomed to the magic of self-interpretation in this world. After all, the CIA-Matt Graver who looked similar to "Thanos" was like an ordinary person. The supporting character died in front of him.

If he hadn't been there at the time, even Michael Weston, the absolute protagonist in "Fire Warning", might have died on the spot.

Jack is a character who is prepared for a rainy day. He is well aware of the trouble-making abilities of the two artificial intelligences in "Person of Interest", so naturally he has to arrange some countermeasures in advance.

Now there is a prototype of a small supercomputing center underground at the Wolfe brothers' farm in Los Angeles. Justine is building her own Internet empire bit by bit. Of course, it is nominally for the future short video platform and control of the trolls. Such preparations.

When the layout of novels and video short drama projects such as Mary Sue and Long Aotian is almost complete, a short video social platform similar to the previous "TikTok" will emerge.

Chris has basically completed the preliminary planning work and has begun to recruit people. Justin alone cannot handle a development project of this scale. It is useless if the keyboard smokes.

This requires the cooperation of hundreds or thousands of programmers, highly experienced project managers and massive capital investment.

In the early stage, funds are not a problem for the time being. The worst case scenario is that Chris will sell all the paintings in his RV. In the future, there will be mature capital markets in Laos and the United States that can be listed to make money, but talents are rare. Jack even once I have the idea of ​​​​contacting Harold Finch in advance.

However, after repeatedly struggling with it, he gave up the idea. The impact on the plot was secondary. Without a deep friendship, it was very likely that such an awesome character would occupy the magpie's nest.

So Jack chose to let nature take its course. Apart from telling Chris not to hire too many programmers from the third brother, especially not to let the third brother occupy management positions, he did not interfere at all in other operational work.

It’s not that he is racist, it’s actually the lessons learned from Boeing in his previous life that make it difficult to put down the “power of thinking” of the third brother. This is no longer a matter of stereotypes.

So it is foreseeable that in the future there will be two huge data centers in New York and Los Angeles that can back up each other. Behind these two data centers, there are several similar data centers hidden on the Wolf Brothers Farm. Underground and underground in the FBI operations team office, control terminals composed of small supercomputers are used to ensure Justin's absolute control over this huge network.

In "Suspect Tracking", artificial intelligence can monitor the entire New York City almost without blind spots through any device with a camera. Jack's requirements are not high, and Justin can control smartphones and tablets. Certain permissions on the device are sufficient.

If he really wants to achieve this goal, Jack himself still has a long way to go, including the improvement of his position, connections and status within the FBI. Fortunately, the situation is not urgent, and he has plenty of time. A few moves of idle chess.

After all, the initiative is in his hands. As long as he does not encounter a robot that looks like the "Governor" and cannot be killed in the future, then there is no need to worry about the "machine" created by Harold Finch. The artificial intelligence program will evolve into "Skynet" and bring about the end of mankind.

No matter how outrageous the plot trend of "Person of Interest" is, the protagonists will be able to bear it if the sky falls anyway. Jack's methods are just preparedness. If he catches up, he will be the best, but if he fails, he will be defeated. The worst is to hide back to Los Angeles.
