Chapter 154 Simultaneous Translation
"Cheng Xue is starting to leave."
Wang Yi heard the news from Lin Shiqin and understood that he was ready.
The weather turned cold, and snowflakes were already flying outside the window. Wang Yi looked at the snow scene outside casually, feeling the atmosphere of the approaching New Year, and a smile appeared on his face
"In that case, it's almost time to start. Let's give them some time to react. Just treat it as a New Year's gift..."
At this moment, Wang Yi suddenly raised his head and looked in one direction toward the sky, and then frowned.
"Go and check the aerospace observation status of various countries. How many meteorites have just fallen and their approximate locations."
Lin Shiqin was stunned by Wang Yi's sudden opening, but she quickly replied
"No problem. Did you find something? Is it serious?"
"It's nothing. In this environment where magic power is lazy, it's not a big problem..."
Wang Yi leaned back on the chair and continued to flip through the paper. He didn't feel that there was anything big. He just felt a burst of magic power for a moment. There was a lot of movement. However, this kind of feeling is often encountered in other worlds. Usually, It was formed by the explosion of some special high-magic meteorites.
It may occasionally come with some 'small gifts', but even under the magic concentration of the other world, these things have no effect. Here, I just want to see if I can have a chance to collect some rare materials...
There is no doubt about Lin Shiqin's investigative ability, and some information about meteorites is not highly confidential. It can be confirmed through some astronomical organizations, so he quickly brought a reply to Wang Yi
"If the boss is looking for a special meteorite, it did appear just now. A meteor exploded over the sea near Papua New Guinea, number: CNEOS2014-01-08, and this meteor of about 0.9 meters also caused received some of their concerns and discussions..."
Normally, it is not a big deal for a meteor to enter the earth, unless it is too large. This kind of normality that has disintegrated really does not attract much attention. Now that it can be discussed, it is obvious that things are not that simple.
"According to preliminary records, it is judged that the speed when entering the atmosphere was as high as 60 kilometers per second, which has exceeded the capture ability of the sun. And based on its speed, altitude and the fireball produced when it decomposes, it is probably judged that it is quite hard, reaching 113 MPa. In order to disintegrate, the strength is five times that of stone meteorites and twice that of iron meteorites.”
Lin Shiqin herself has extremely strong computing power. Based on the existing data, she can draw conclusions faster than those observatories.
In fact, through these preliminary results, it can be determined that this meteorite came from outside the solar system...
"Disintegrated? Sea area?"
After hearing this, Wang Yi suddenly lost his thoughts. He didn't have so much time to look for a needle in a haystack.
"There is a beautifully arranged ship to try their luck at salvage, starting from Australia."
"Well, remind me if there are any results."
Wang Yi doesn't think the ship over there will get any results from this kind of thing of finding a needle in a haystack...
……
After giving Lin Shiqin a warning, Wang Yi pressed the button on the table again.
Assistant Chen Qian walked in.
Now Qian Yayan is integrating the company's internal structure. She wants to set the tone before the year and cooperate with a wave of bonuses to solve some possible slumps, so now it is Chen Qian's turn to start communicating.
"The R&D department has new good things to announce. Let's inform Xiaopo Station to hold a video conference together."
"Understood!"
Chen Qian also seemed very happy to hear that the company had new jobs at the end of the year.
It can be said that everything the company comes up with is absolutely epoch-making, without exception!
So although Wang Yi only described it lightly, Chen Qian still had great expectations.
Soon after, the conference room was ready and the video conference began.
Even if it was an impromptu meeting held by Wang Yi, all parties involved were quite complete.
It can be seen that Chen Jie seems to be still in the car, but still turns on his mobile phone to connect to the conference.
With the channel compression capability, it can be said that you can hold a meeting anytime and anywhere!
"A new software that can be embedded into videos or even live broadcast synchronization software, well, I can call it 'synchronous translation'..."
……
Explosive!
Originally, everyone was waiting for a wave of carnival to welcome the New Year. Although various parties held various activities, they were approaching the Spring Festival and still would not make any big moves.
Is there anything good that will bode well for the new year?
Worldwide, however, went in the opposite direction.
The first is the update of the homepage of the small website that is the external mouthpiece of world companies, an epoch-making software!
At the same time, the official WeChat account, official public account, and TT account started simultaneous release.
Wang Yi also used Master Yi's Weibo account to repost it, and quoted his own answer when the editor-in-chief of "Annual Review of Mathematics" invited him.
"Before, my English was not good, but now it doesn't matter. 'Connect'"
Synchronous translation software!
This big revelation really shocked everyone.
In fact, translation software has long been available.
Translatable words are okay, but once you start translating the whole sentence, you start to work hard.
In fact, it is not that there are no companies researching this direction, nor is it impossible to improve.
Introducing AI algorithms and constantly feeding a large amount of big data, as long as enough is fed, the translation accuracy can gradually increase.
However, this increase is definitely relative. There is definitely still a way to go before we can fully achieve the so-called simultaneous translation.
But now, World Corporation has directly launched such a software!
And first of all, the implantation and upgrade of the small broken website was completed!
You can switch to subtitles in several mainstream languages for the videos on Xiaoposite! Even the sound!
Unlike the previous electronic mechanical sounds, now you can even choose the sound category!
Both men and women, old and young, can also support inputting text and converting it into speech...
……
Modu, a small foreign trade company.
Today the company received a group of really wealthy customers, because their heads were wrapped in a layer of white cloth, which was an extremely rare high-quality list!
“I don’t know if the miser will get a bonus once this kind of deal is finalized.”
Xiao Liu casually flipped through the small station with a melancholy look on his face.
But at this moment, he heard the boss’s low-pitched roar
"Where is the translator? Where is the translator you asked for?!"
Hearing this, even Xiao Liu couldn't help but tremble.
Complaints are complaints, but my company's orders are still quite important, so something like this happened?
"Boss, we don't have our own Arabic translator. The one we made an appointment with suddenly refused. We can't even add money. It seems that we were intercepted by a friend."
Someone gave feedback right away.
Arabic is a minor language, and not many people study it specifically.
This time, a big businessman with a white cloth on his head came over, and many people were trying to snatch him away. In fact, the price of the translator they hired had been raised several times, but they didn't expect that someone else would poach him in the end.
"Where's the contract? Didn't you sign the contract?"
"I signed it, but now he would rather lose money than come. It must be a deliberate mischief by a friend."
It's really surprising to encounter this situation suddenly when things are about to happen.
The boss almost jumped out of his skin.
Then he turned around and saw the confused little Liu Dao
"I remember you were an English major!"
"Huh? Yes."
Xiao Liu is a little confused. You are not letting me go, right? It’s definitely okay to let yourself translate some documents and materials in English, but if you let yourself communicate directly with Arabs, both parties may not be on the right channel!
"I can't control so much anymore. It's up to you. If you do well, you will be rewarded!"
This sudden rush to the shore made Xiao Liu panic in his heart. If you do well, you will be rewarded. Does that mean you will be punished if you don't do well?
No, boss!
Then he quickly opened his phone and looked at the software pinned to the top of the small broken station.
I'm very good at playing, but I don't know if it's that strong. No matter what, I'm treating a dead horse as a living horse, let's talk about it first...
……
"What is this? It's amazing! We want to buy this! How much does it cost!"
The standard Modu dialect appeared on the phone, and at this time, a wealthy man wearing a white cloth on his head was pointing at the phone and saying in surprise that he wanted to buy this phone.
At this time, everyone in the company who was attending the reception looked at the phone in confusion, unable to react.
As the instigator, Xiao Liu is stupid, but Te Mo is really capable, and his translation is so accurate?
"Mr. Muhan, this is an APP application software that has just been launched in my country. It has a one-month free trial period, and will adopt a membership system at a cost of US$6 per month..."
'Simultaneous Translation' itself has a separate APP, and it has also been synchronously implanted in other APPs under the World. The use of APPs related to World is free, but if you use the 'Simultaneous Translation' APP alone, you still need to charge a membership fee... …
……
At first it was said to be a translation software, but in fact many insiders didn’t pay much attention to it.
There are many translation software nowadays.
But it was only discovered after someone tried and used it.
This special thing is really ‘simultaneous translation’!
After opening it, many people listened to the pure American or London accent and almost thought they were taking a listening and speaking class!
"I can only persuade! The translator is better than me! Is my English major unemployed?!"
"As expected of a global company! It has simply opened the door to a new world!"
"Ah..., will I still have to take the English test in the future? Are all foreign language majors unemployed?"
“I thought it was just a gimmick, so I just knelt down and watched the video after opening it!”
"Good news for bad students!"
"Haha! I no longer have to be afraid of partial subjects!"
"Wake up, it hasn't changed yet, don't even think about it this time."
"The English test is not an open book, what are you thinking about."
"..."
Various comments and barrages instantly detonated the entire network, which was simply explosive.
Although the statement issued by World Company is very brief.
But it really proves that the shorter the statement, the bigger the problem!
Another round of bloodbath!
The things currently launched by companies around the world are really sweeping all the way.
Even if it is a small website that seems to be at a disadvantage when competing with competing products, it is just burning money in an unscrupulous way. If it really has a technical advantage, what can the Ahri Alliance do to fight?
But now, it’s almost the Chinese New Year, and you bring this kind of ‘good news’, which really makes many students at the Foreign Language School scold them.
Did you make a mistake? Don't mess with us!
This is no longer something you can escape by going abroad.
It also supports simultaneous shooting and translation, so the translation of small companies can be lost.
It can be said that this has affected the jobs and futures of a large group of people.
But...
Overall, this is definitely an artifact that attracts many people's attention!
Some people have even started to translate some special movies from Neon Country.
"If I remember correctly, you were the first one to post about the beauty last time on the entire Internet."
"Do you only know this? It's really disgusting! Then remember to send the mysterious code to my email address
"You need to translate this? Don't you understand just those few words?"
"I know this, there is a plot, and it's great to match the beauty."
"Then please send me a copy too..."
"..."
It can be said that as soon as this 'synchronous translation' software came out, it immediately received a lot of popularity.
This makes almost everyone master a few foreign languages!
But after this software came out, students at the School of Foreign Languages and some translators were still crying for their parents.
But I didn’t expect that a group of people would be even more excited
"We must resist this kind of software that gets something for nothing!"
"Why? I have worked hard for so many years so that everyone can get the same thing?"
"Boycott!"
The most exciting ones turned out to be some related intermediaries!
In fact, they themselves make money by taking advantage of the information gap, and they rely on you not understanding it.
But now with this software, as long as they are willing to spend time, their original information asymmetry advantage will be completely destroyed!
Some of the things you boasted about before can immediately be found with many restrictive clauses.
Originally, for the intermediaries themselves, they only charge per person. What happens after the person passes, how they live, and whether they live or die has nothing to do with them.
Once you get the agency fee, that’s it!
Anyway, those people who have worked so hard to come out, even if their teeth are knocked out, they still have to swallow it, and they still help to say yes!
But now, customers can easily know the truth, which is completely different.
This is a waste of money.
But obviously, these people's clamor cannot change the general trend.
Not only is synchronous translation a separate APP, it is also directly integrated into Xiaobo.com, live broadcasts and TT.
Including, TT overseas version...
In an instant, the heat swept the world!
