“What a great thing!”
Chen Lin's face was full of excitement after seeing what President Zhang handed over, "How can these two things be connected? I never thought of it!"
"To be honest, I didn't expect this before."
President Zhang asked Chen Lin while boiling water: "Would you like to smoke one?"
"I quit smoking for a few years before..."
"But it would be nice to smoke one now."
Chen Lin nodded with a smile. He took the cigarette from President Zhang, lit it casually and said to President Zhang: "What did Ding Yi say?"
"The news came back from him. His project has lasted for six years, and the total investment has exceeded the total funds invested by the association in infrastructure construction during the first decade of the 21st century."
"How much is that?"
Chen Lin didn't know much about this value. The total capital investment in the first ten years was too far away for young people like Chen Lin. After all, it was twenty or thirty years ago.
"Well, the total investment was almost 9 trillion."
Chairman Zhang thought about it for a moment, "There are so many funds approved in total from the finance department, and the funds allocated to dozens of provinces, municipalities, and municipalities throughout the association for infrastructure construction can be regarded as allowing the association to enter a full-scale explosion very quickly. era.”
"At that time, I was just a member of a county association, and I may not have much experience with these things, but the actual changes were very critical, and it was only from that time that the association officially emerged."
< br>
Chen Lin nodded with a smile. He was only a few years old at the time and couldn't recall what happened at that time. However, he was a little shocked that the value was as high as nine trillion.
He didn't expect that the Red Dragon Association would be willing to make such a big deal.
"It's too far off, this is..."
President Zhang smiled and waved his hand, and said to Chen Lin: "What we are going to discuss is actually the relatively unique super building built by Professor Ding Yi Ding. I remember that it was the Star Gate Base that was built at the beginning. ? That thing took a short time to complete, and the subsequent main body of the star gate and the gravity well on it are the real big parts. ”
"Aren't we going to build a transfer station with Sora a few days ago? This news reached Ding Yi's ears for some reason. The star gate base he built at the beginning can be used with the upgraded phase portal. It has a simple teleportation function, which can be teleported across galaxies, which just meets the needs of our affiliated planets to go to Sora.”
"The association simply sent someone to do a test, and unexpectedly it actually succeeded."
Chen Lin was fascinated by what he heard. The combination of the star gate base and the phase portal is undoubtedly a mutually reinforcing technological breakthrough. It is of absolute importance to the Red Dragon Association and even the entire interstellar exploration.
President Zhang took a deep breath of cigarette, and then slowly exhaled it. The smoke slowly dispersed in the air, and his thoughts drifted away: "It's just that we have only done a simple test at the moment, and the specific use of Star Gate has not yet been completed." There are many details that we need to perfect, and Professor Ding only provided an idea.”
"I'm actually curious about the association's current attitude towards the operation of these affiliated planets and another planet. Since I entered the top management of the association, I always feel that I haven't spent too much time and energy on the management of these things."
Chen Lin asked aloud, while President Zhang sat aside and shook the cigarette in his hand, then said: "The association's attitude towards affiliated planets and interstellar operations has always been open and cautious."
He spoke slowly, and his voice seemed a little distant in the smoke: "The association encourages exploration and innovation, but at the same time, we must ensure that every step is taken steadily. After all, interstellar affairs are far more complicated than we imagined."
"Currently, we are mainly cooperating with representatives on various planets to jointly develop resources and promote cultural exchanges... But if there are no representatives on these planets or they are unclaimed lands, then the association will adopt the base model. Remote management of it - generally similar to the operation we did on the Origin Planet, first send some members to the planet to complete the infrastructure construction, and then send various members to rotate according to the environment and the size of the base. Stationed on duty ”
"These policies worked very well in the first few years, but they don't work well now."
President Zhang spoke seriously, "Although the jurisdiction of the association can cover these bases, as time goes by, there will be some problems in those bases on the affiliated planets, even if we rotate the bases here Even the main person in charge is in trouble. There is really nothing we can do.”
"The association is still having a headache on how to deal with these things - you have to know that it is easier to deal with on Earth or even on the Origin Star. The worst I can do is send a few inspection teams over to take a look."
< br>
"What do you think I should do if the place is changed to Blue Star, or Blue Star's space station, or a further transfer station?"
"What's more, there is also the Wuyin Star, the Wood Spirit Star, and even the Desert Star... The resources on these affiliated planets may not be that great for us, but they are not small either."
"It would be irresponsible of the association to waste one of them."
Chen Lin frowned. He understood the dilemma faced by President Zhang.
In the interstellar era, the management of super bases outside the earth is far more complicated than the management of associations on earth. By then, each planet will have its own unique environment and challenges, and the resources of the association are limited and cannot be unlimited. Invest.
What's more, after people stay in one place for a long time, they will inevitably choose to challenge the original basic restrictions after adapting.
For example, a base on a certain affiliated planet may feel that it is a stalemate after seven or eight years, so it rashly refuses various demands for supplies put forward by the association.
Chen Lin had actually heard of this kind of thing before, and it was something that Li Tianyun broke when he left office.
"So, can we consider establishing a more efficient management system?"
Chen Lin tentatively suggested, "For example, we can use Professor Ding's stargate technology to establish a stargate network. This will not only speed up resource transportation and personnel deployment, but also enable real-time monitoring of each planet."
President Zhang nodded in agreement: "Your idea is very forward-looking. Professor Ding's stargate network is indeed a solution. After all, after it is completed, the stargate can be used to travel between multiple regions, saving money." It eliminates a lot of trouble and can also avoid various different voices and alien psychology in the bases on some affiliated planets.”
"However, the stability and security of Stargate technology are still relatively worrying. Once the Stargate network is established, any failure may cause catastrophic consequences. I think the technology shown here is not mature yet. If you want To really put this into practice, it will take at least half a year to a year for Ding Yi’s team.”
"Then give this time, can't we wait?"
Chen Lin spoke to President Zhang very confidently, "Since we now have such information, we can spend some time taking care of these things during our term of office." "Yes, so We must first ensure the reliability of the stargate technology.”
"We can first establish star gates on several key planets and then conduct trial operations, and gradually improve the management system...but these will take time to plan and implement."
President Zhang said aloud: "But your proposal gave me a lot of inspiration."
"In addition, we can also consider introducing artificial intelligence and automation technology to reduce reliance on human resources to improve management efficiency. Of course, this is a story for a later time."
"Indeed."
President Zhang nodded, "Deploy intelligent monitoring systems at various bases and collect data in real time. It will be used to analyze changes in the planet's environment and even predict potential risks."
"These are feasible measures."
Chen Lin nodded: "In fact, I think the most critical thing is to rely on AI."
"AI?"
President Zhang paused when he heard this. He snuffed out his cigarette silently, took a deep breath and then said to Chen Lin: "Vice President Chen, I do have a very good person here. Idea, but this kind of thing may be a bit too straightforward for people of your level.”
Chen Lin realized that what President Zhang said might not be a good thing, but now that we are here, the so-called good and bad things are not that important anymore.
Please...you...Collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠ(Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\!)
"You should have read through ancient historical documents and know that those who occupied the top positions in ancient times would probably broadcast some people in order to know the whereabouts of their courtiers and to understand the general status of the dozens of provinces and cities under their control. Going out, these characters with special roles and identities can generally bring special channels for top people to obtain information.”
President Zhang spoke calmly, and Chen Lin's pupils suddenly shrank as soon as he heard it.
"I know what you mean..."
Chen Lin was startled for a moment, and then said to President Zhang: "Does President Zhang mean to directly apply the new artificial intelligence and hide it as a way to secretly monitor the senior personnel of these affiliated planet associations?" Tools?”
President Zhang smiled and did not deny it.
"I have to say that it makes sense for Chairman Li to go out of his way to recruit you as the candidate for the next president."
He picked up the cigarette case from the table, took out a cigarette from it, and said slowly: "You don't even need to say more about these words, you understand them completely."
Chen Lin was silent for several minutes.
Although Chairman Zhang's proposal is a bit risky, it is feasible to a certain extent - artificial intelligence is used as a covert monitoring tool that can collect the behaviors and dynamics of senior personnel on various affiliated planets without arousing suspicion. .
"Such an operation can guarantee our control over the affiliated planets to a certain extent."
President Zhang said slowly, "But this special behavior actually violates many of our rules. For the association, if this kind of thing is put on the surface, it is impossible to fully pass it at the high-level meeting."
Chen Lin only nodded slightly at this moment: "You are right... We do need a legal and reasonable framework to implement this plan."
"If we really want to do it, we can package it as a security check mechanism to ensure that the use of artificial intelligence is to prevent potential threats and protect the interests of the association and the safety of members. At least on the surface, this is not the case. Any questions.”
President Zhang looked at Chen Lin with admiration: "You have a very good idea. This is very appropriate. Our current AI technology is already very terrifying. There is no problem in pretending it. It can even be used as the core." Tools - such as the mandatory check-in devices at major affiliated bases. Both the person in charge and the lower-level personnel must check in every day to confirm safety. ”
"That's a pretty good excuse, right?"
Chen Lin nodded: "On a technical level, we can let the team on Origin Star be responsible for developing this advanced artificial intelligence. They have sufficient technical strength and experience."
"I think so too. Yanhuang Artificial Intelligence was originally developed by an AI studio here on Origin Star. There is no problem in letting them design a more special AI."
"I agree."
Chen Lin hummed and said, "What is this plan called?"
"I don't have a name yet, but I have a good idea - how about calling it [Star Eye]?"
"[Star Eye] Artificial Intelligence?"
Chen Lin silently recited this special name, then raised his head and looked at President Zhang: "You must consider that this matter is not a joke... Once it is exposed by an organization or person, if it is not dealt with in time, , the impact will be very bad.”
President Zhang nodded solemnly, knowing that Chen Lin's concerns were justified.
Once this plan is started, it cannot be shut down again, and this thing is like a double-edged sword. For anyone involved, the existence of this top-level AI is top secret.
"Only people like you and me can know the existence of this thing. The last one was President Li Tianyun at most, and the next one is you. As for who your future president will be, that's not what I need to consider. ”
President Zhang said to Chen Lin: "Just like the story I told you before, only the top person can truly master the functional use rights of this super AI and deliver it to any institution or organization. None.”
"The reason why you know in advance now is entirely because of your special status."
Chen Lin was silent and didn't speak. His eyes were wandering. He didn't know whether the matter that President Zhang talked about with him today was good or bad.
Even based on his experience of working in the association for almost ten years, he only felt that the future was chaotic - there seemed to be no end in sight. (End of chapter)
