Don’t Covet the Beautiful System!!

Chapter 86

When Li Yayi knocked on the door of the house where the Spring Festival couplets were still affixed for the second time, her mood was quite different from the last time.

She and the camera colleague beside her glanced at each other, and they both knew the special nature of today’s interview.

The protagonist in the lens will be an intelligent robot.

With luck, maybe two.

After a short wait, the door opened, and Li Yayi was ready to say hello to Pei Qingyuan, her gaze was about to glance at his wrist, which had been completely ignored before, and take a look at the mysterious black watch.

But beside Pei Qingyuan, she saw a strange face.

“Good afternoon.” Pei Qingyuan’s voice was flat.

The boy next to him also said, “Good afternoon~”

The two completely different voices are stacked together, one is cold and the other is warm, but there is a strange harmony.

Li Yayi was startled, and quickly said: “Long time no see, excuse me.”

This family where Pei Qingyuan lived alone suddenly had an extra member.

She looked around curiously. There were funny handwritten Spring Festival couplets pasted on the kitchen door, the jelly bean robots on the workbench were still brightly colored, and the dolls and cute decorations that can be seen everywhere were also there, but there were a few more things.

For example, various reference books spread out on the coffee table, and a large plate of fragrant fresh fruits, such as the volleyball placed in the corner of the living room, and a pair of wrist and knee pads thrown on the chair.

There is a bit more youthful atmosphere in the warm room.

Li Yayi remembered that among the classmates who met Pei Qingyuan, there was no such a person.

During this period of time, she had occasional contact with Pei Qingyuan, and she was not too unfamiliar, so she asked curiously, “Is this your relative?”

Pei Qingyuan said: “No, they are friends.”

He saw what Li Yayi was thinking from the sudden realization in her eyes, and added: “New friends I met during the holiday.”

The boy immediately came up to greet her: “Hello, my name is Ji Tong.”

Li Yayi quickly responded, but her heart was even more at a loss.

It turns out that during the holiday, Pei Qingyuan did travel with his real friends.

So, what about watches?

Before the interview officially started, Pei Qingyuan dispelled her idea of trying to stare at the black dial with a calm sentence: “This is just a watch.”

He did not acknowledge the online speculation.

Not outright denying it either.

Li Yayi, who had witnessed the emotion in Pei Qingyuan’s eyes on the day of the interview, didn’t think he was lying.

Maybe Pei Qingyuan didn’t want to reveal the secret of the watch to the public, so he decided to avoid the past like a family problem, and meeting new friends during the holiday was just a coincidence.

But the two of them got along with a natural and casual atmosphere, as if they had known each other for a long time. Based on her understanding of Pei Qingyuan, this high-cold provincial champion did not seem to have a character that would quickly get close to new acquaintances.

With a confused head, Li Yayi and her camera colleagues could only honestly point the lens at the jelly bean robot.

Outside the camera, Pei Qingyuan, who temporarily relaxed the standby mode permissions for the jelly bean robot, allowed the jelly bean robot, which does not need to be awakened by name to interact with Li Yayi, while he concentrated on staying by his friend’s side.

The fair-skinned boy carefully flipped through the documents in his hand, silently reciting something, and Pei Qingyuan occasionally helped him draw a few key points on the paper.

There was a special atmosphere between the two, as if there were no extra people and things around, and no one could affect that sunny corner.

During the filming interval, Li Yayi couldn’t help cast a curious look, and learned that Ji Tong was preparing to take the auditor’s exam at Jiangyuan University’s School of Artificial Intelligence.

Artificial intelligence again.

At a certain moment, Li Yayi, who was in a trance, almost had the most absurd idea: Ji Tong’s body was the watch AI that had been with Pei Qingyuan for a long time.

Everyone knows this is impossible.

Ji Tong is clearly an ordinary human being, no matter how cutting-edge the technology is, it is impossible to create a bionic robot of this level, not to mention that Pei Qingyuan is just a high school student who just graduated.

At the end of the day, half of Li Yayi’s heart is filled with surprises brought by the jelly bean robot, and the other half is filled with increasingly mysterious mysteries.

From the humble interview video at the beginning, many puzzles were derived. Among all kinds of intertwined information, netizens chose an answer they liked, and laughed and cried for it.

And this answer obviously cannot be confirmed by Pei Qingyuan.

Most haunting is the story of uncertainty.

Li Yayi thinks that many people will remember this summer, a high school student who said nothing in the camera, and his unresolved strong feelings.

Before leaving, she couldn’t hold back her curiosity after all, and whispered: “Can I ask, how did you and Xiao Ji meet?”

Pei Qingyuan looked at her quietly: “That’s another story.”

A story that only each other knows.

When the door was closed, Li Yayi saw the teenager in front of the coffee table throw away the pen and paper in frustration, took a bowl of carefully peeled fresh pomegranate seeds, nestled on the sofa and avoided studying by eating.

The little fruits under the sunlight are like bright hearts.

“I’ll trouble you later.” Pei Qingyuan finally said to her.

Amidst the mixed emotions of regret and satisfaction, Li Yayi finished today’s work and turned to leave.

For the first time, she felt that it was a waste for Pei Qingyuan to choose the major of artificial intelligence.

He clearly understands humans better than studying emotionless robots.

After the release of the latest interview video, as Li Yayi expected, it did not cause any waves among ordinary netizens at first.

In the video, there are not many conversations between the jelly bean robot and Li Yayi, and there is not much unexpected funny contrast, because Pei Qingyuan let go more of the action authority. At Li Yayi’s request, jelly bean danced four different types for her. dance.

The robot with a colorful elliptical body wears a peaked cap with excellent sound quality, waving its short robotic hands and long mechanical legs, shaking its legs for a while, shaking its hands for a while, and performing a dumb moonwalk, which caught the female reporter outside the camera All amused.

However, in the eyes of ordinary people, these flexible robot dances can only bring short-term novelty. One dance is interesting, but four are repetitive.

Some netizens who have been looking forward to the function of the jelly bean robot before are inevitably a little disappointed, and some people have not even finished watching the video.

[I thought there would be some special function, but it turned out to be just dancing. ]

[Please, this is a robot made by a high school student, I think this is already very powerful. ]

[The most distinctive feature is this strange shape, which is sold online, looks exactly the same, and I just placed an order. ]

[Don’t buy counterfeit copies…]

Until a blogger who is certified as a mechanical expert retweeted the video.

[The limbs of this robot have incredible stability and flexibility, and the entire structure and design are extremely simple and beautiful. Let alone high school students, even if they are placed in the Robot World Cup for College Students, they will doubt the level of the judges. ]

Ten minutes later, he released screenshots of pirated copies flooding shopping websites, asserting:

[Don’t buy this rubbish, chasing pirated copies is stifling originality, and the two are not comparable except for the easiest to copy appearance, if this kind of copycat robot worth 200 yuan can walk steadily for ten seconds without falling to the ground , I changed my surname to high school student Gao on the spot. ]

After he discovered the video, many experts in the same field joined the discussion.

[It’s really powerful, but it can’t be made by a ten-year-old child. This design is ingenious. It should be a helper for some teacher, right? ]

[Few people dare to design such a long leg. The higher the center of gravity, the more difficult it is to maintain balance. It is difficult to lift the legs and walk. This one can still dance, which is awesome for young people. ]

…

In a relatively professional field, netizens’ comments based on their own vision and cognition are becoming more and more uncontrollable, and are very likely to be contrary to the facts.

Those advantages that most attract the attention of ordinary people and are praised as unbelievable, such as chatting with AI are playful and smart like human beings, but in reality, it is basically the voices of real people behind the scenes.

And those real breakthroughs are limited by the lack of understanding of professional knowledge, and most ordinary people can’t see them, but they will regard them as commonplace.

But after professionals point it out, netizens will suddenly realize that they will increase their efforts to pursue it.

At least they were the second group to see the extraordinary.

They’re still smart.

Looking at the long list of messages Li Yayi sent to the host, Ji Tong widened his eyes in surprise.

Since Pei Qingyuan does not have any public contact information, many companies that want to seek him to authorize cooperation in the mass production of this robot, and even some experts and professors from universities, can only find reporter Li Yayi first, hoping to get in touch with the real maker of this robot , whether it’s Pei Qingyuan or someone else.

Pei Qingyuan glanced at these messages with no expression, but when he raised his head and spoke to the people around him, his tone was soft: “The design drawing you gave me is very good, it’s your credit.”

Ji Tong thought for a while, decided to happily accept this compliment, nodded and said: “I can take one-third of the credit.”

Everything starts with the design drawing of the long-legged bowl.

Ji Tong’s original intention was just to eat more conveniently.

Sure enough, appetite is the driving force behind human progress.

“Why a third?”

“Which one is the host going to authorize the robot to?”

The two were talking at the same time, Pei Qingyuan was stunned, and answered his question first: “I haven’t thought about it yet, I need to understand each interested company first.”

After all, his time in the field of artificial intelligence is too short. The built-in AI of Tangdou robot is improved on the basis of components that can be bought in the market. It is not completely self-developed, and there is no condition for massive data training, so it is not very good. Smart, there is a lot of room for optimization in the future.

And ever since Pei Qingyuan sent a partial design drawing for help in the robot enthusiast forum and received enthusiastic responses, he realized that the design of the mechanical part of this jelly bean robot is far more valuable than AI.

So when Li Yayi came to interview, the authority he opened up for Xiaomei was mainly to complete the actions according to the instructions, hoping to highlight its ability to move.

The online influence brought by video is no longer important, and what is more important now is a clear path to monetization.

So far, this strategy has been successful.

Just in terms of shell and mechanical performance, jelly bean robot has unique commercial value.

As for Ji Tong’s wish, that will be Pei Qingyuan’s goal in college.

He will keep learning, upgrading and optimizing the built-in AI until it becomes smart enough to truly accompany a lonely human child.

Hearing that the host said that he hadn’t decided who to cooperate with, Ji Tong immediately turned on the search mode, and after a while excitedly said: “I have a very good candidate, at least there will be no problem with character.”

He felt that the credit for the success of the jelly bean robot should be divided into three parts.

One-third was him who took out this blueprint.

A third are hosts who bring blueprints to life.

Another third is the person who sent the cap that is the source of all evil.

If it weren’t for the peaked cap speaker, Ji Tong would not have thought of this magical shape, and probably would not have thought of the idea of letting the host build a robot to decompress.

Of course, the root of all evil should be the primary school student Fang Hao who was wearing a peaked cap and doing righteous deeds everywhere.

Pei Qingyuan quickly realized who he was talking about.

Ji Tong recalled the news he saw when he searched for that name just now: the rise of smart homes has squeezed out the existing market, traditional home appliance companies are facing a cold winter, and transformation is imminent…

He was eager to try: “I think this should be a good thing for him.”

Naturally, Pei Qingyuan would not reject Ji Tong’s proposal.

“good.”

In the evening, Deng Shu, who had just walked out of the factory, saw an unfamiliar number ringing on the screen of his mobile phone, and hesitated before answering it.

He thought it was another dealer who wanted to delay the payment by complaining that the market was not doing well, but he didn’t expect that a very young voice rang on the other end of the phone.

“Hello, is Mr. Deng…?”

When deciding to address him, the other party paused.

Deng Shu said politely: “It’s me, who are you?”

“My name is Pei Qingyuan.”

Accompanied by this calm voice, some memories that were gradually dusted up in the busy days reappeared in Deng Shu’s mind.

He remembered that his son Deng Letian, who was repeatedly bullied by gangsters, was rescued by kind high school students, and he was encouraged to tell the adults about these things.

After accidentally learning the identity of the high school student, he decided to thank him in a more tactful way.

Deng Shu set up a number of scholarships in that high school, and asked someone to make the peaked cap speakers that Deng Letian insisted on giving to his peaked cap brother.

There were two letters in the gift box with the speakers, one for father and one for his son. In the letter written by Deng Shu, he attached his contact information, saying that if Pei Qingyuan needed any help, he could contact him at any time.

This is the first time Pei Qingyuan made this call.

But those who need help may have changed.

Deng Shu stood in the wind and listened to the phone, his expression gradually changed from surprise to joy.

After the host finished the long phone call, Ji Tong, who held back his laughter for a long time, whispered in his ear: “Host, did you want to call Uncle Deng at first, and thought it was strange, so you changed your name temporarily?”

“…” Pei Qingyuan, who was exposed, remained calm, “It’s more formal to call Mr. Deng.”

“oh-“

Ji Tong elongated his tone and said, “Will the host become Mr. Pei in the future? Or Mr. Pei?”

When he said these slightly distant titles with reverie, Pei Qingyuan’s heart beat slightly.

In the next second, the warm palm gently rubbed the soft top of the hair that was close at hand, just like when I was a child.

As an adult, Ji Tong hadn’t reacted to this slightly ambiguous action, when he heard the host say a cold sentence in a normal tone: “The exam will be the day after tomorrow, and you haven’t finished studying.”

He immediately forgot about his 1.8-meter-high hairstyle that had been suppressed, and said in despair: “…Can I learn it again tomorrow?”

Pei Qingyuan’s answer was concise and to the point: “Professor Xiao is very curious about my auditor friend, so I can’t reveal it.”

Ji Tong had no choice but to go back to the sofa in dismay, picked up the materials that Pei Qingyuan had prepared for him, and stared at them with straight eyes.

Exam preparation is a real pain.

He has no experience in this type of interview, and needs to be familiar with the common interview questions and procedures in advance, and keep them in his mind instead of just throwing them into the data.

And he wants to operate in reverse, clearing out some knowledge that is far beyond the technological level of this world from his head, so as not to shock everyone by accidentally leaking his words.

Suddenly I don’t want to be a college student anymore.

Or artificial intelligence freedom.

Hua Hua meekly slipped into Ji Tong’s arms, and rubbed his furry ears against his melancholy face.

The familiar aroma of crayfish came from the kitchen.

Ji Tong, who pretended to be studying, raised his head and looked into the kitchen eight times in two minutes, until the host’s faint voice sounded: “Eat in one hour, you have to read ten pages before then.”

Ji Tong quickly retracted his gaze, lowered his head and flipped through the documents solemnly.

…The host really knows him too well.

For crawfish’s sake, he could.
