Chapter 81
When Ye Yunzhou designed Facebook, he adopted modular design.
Because of the good modular design, adding new functions usually does not require changing the existing architecture and core code, and new functions can be added to the system as an independent module.
Coupled with clear interface definitions, new functions can be easily integrated by implementing these interfaces without affecting the core logic of existing functions. At the same time, the framework written by Jarvis is an easy-to-extend framework, and adding new functions only requires expanding the existing structure.
In other words, it may take a few technicians one or two days to add new functions to Facebook. This technology is also a dimensionality reduction attack for current Internet companies.
Imagine that someone has just copied your function and just launched it, and you immediately launch a new function. This is what Musk said, as long as I innovate fast enough, others can’t copy me at all.
After Ye Yunzhou registered a Facebook account with his Yahoo email, he added friends with several roommates.
“Who is Nanjie Beixiang?”
“It’s me.” Ye Yunzhou said calmly, “Please let me know.”
“????” Han Mo looked at Ye Yunzhou’s laptop with a puzzled look.
“Isn’t Facebook a real-name social networking site? Is there a bug?”
Ye Yunzhou thought to himself, who told me to be the boss? Can’t I be a little special? But I can’t tell them this.
“I heard that Facebook will release a super account every time it reaches 10 million users, and this super account can be used without a real name.” Ye Yunzhou lied without blushing or beating his heart.
“Really? Has Facebook’s users exceeded 20 million? Didn’t it announce the breakthrough of 10 million the day before yesterday?” Li Hanlin is a Facebook fan, and it can be said that he always pays attention to the developments of Facebook.
“Old Ye, you are so lucky that you can apply for a super account.” Zhao Tianyu envied him with his real name.
“Okay, okay, let’s pass it.”
“……”
After adding friends, Ye Yunzhou ignored them. He opened the software writing interface and continued to organize and write the game engine to be used next.
Game engine refers to the core components of some editable computer game systems or some interactive real-time image applications that have been written.
From a functional point of view, the game engine contains a series of tools and technologies for creating and managing games. It covers multiple aspects such as graphics rendering, physical simulation, sound processing, artificial intelligence, script system, network communication, etc.
Graphics rendering is an important part of the game engine. It is responsible for processing the drawing of scenes, characters, special effects, etc. in the game, including the processing of lighting, materials, textures, models, etc., to present realistic visual effects.
Physical simulation allows objects in the game to follow the physical laws of the real world, such as gravity, collision, friction, etc., to increase the realism and interactivity of the game.
The sound processing module is responsible for managing various sound effects in the game, including background music, environmental sound effects, character voices, etc., to create a rich auditory experience.
The artificial intelligence system is used to control the behavior of non-player characters (NPCs) in the game, making them behave more intelligently and naturally.
The script system allows developers to implement specific game logic and plot flow by writing scripts.
The network communication function supports multiplayer online games and ensures data transmission and synchronization between players.
For game developers, using game engines can greatly improve development efficiency and reduce repetitive work. They can focus on the creativity and gameplay design of the game without having to build all the technical architecture from the bottom up.
At present, there are no more than 5 countries in the world that can develop game engines. Even game powers like South Korea use game engines from Germany and the United States. It is conceivable how difficult it is to develop game engines.
However, Ye Yunzhou has a super artificial intelligence Jarvis. In Jarvis’s eyes, anything that can be expressed in code is not difficult, not to mention that Jarvis has invaded large game companies in Europe, the United States and Japan in the past few days, and the core code data of their game engines has all been copied by Jarvis.
In order to enable the developed game engine to be used on current hardware, it is not dared to develop too advanced, otherwise it will be useless if the hardware cannot support it after the software is developed.
After discussing with Jarvis, Ye Yunzhou planned to integrate the most advanced game engines in the world, first make a product that is half a generation more advanced than the current game engine, and then slowly upgrade it later.
Because their core code has been copied, if it is just integration, it can be completed in a few days, but Jarvis thinks their code is too poorly written, he wants to rewrite it using the “Cangjie” programming language he invented. If he can spare two hours a day to write it, it is expectedIt is estimated to take at least twenty days.
Ye Yunzhou authorized Jarvis to control his body and start writing. Ye Yunzhou’s fingers quickly tapped the keyboard, and the speed was so fast that afterimages almost appeared, which made Li Hanlin and others look at each other in surprise. However, they did not make a fuss. After all, Yanda University has all kinds of people.
It was late at night, and the other three had already fallen asleep. Now there were bursts of snoring. Ye Yunzhou looked at the watch. It was already three o’clock in the morning. He quickly turned off the computer and climbed into bed to sleep.
The next day, Ye Yunzhou was awakened by Han Mo and others. When he opened his eyes, he found that they had washed up. Li Hanlin was practicing oral English. This guy has set going to Ivy League schools in the United States as his goal. His execution ability is still very strong.
Han Mo seemed to be doing math problems. His goal is to make achievements in the academic field. This guy came in through the Olympic Games. He has learned math until his junior year and is one of the famous paper kings.
Zhao Tianyu was preparing for today’s class committee election speech. His goal is to go into politics. Since you want to be in politics, it is necessary to run for class cadres and then join the student union. If you can become the president of the student union at Yanda, you can start as a deputy director in any county.
Ye Yunzhou slept too late last night to write the game engine, and he couldn’t get up in the morning. If it weren’t for the noise of these three guys, he would probably have to sleep for two hours.
Ye Yunzhou stretched and felt that the fatigue on his body was relieved a lot. After getting up and washing up, everyone went out together. After leaving the dormitory, the ginkgo trees on the campus began to change into golden coats, and the fallen leaves gently fell in the breeze, paving a golden path. Students rushed to the classroom in groups of three or two, carrying schoolbags, or reading books by the lake, enjoying the tranquility and beauty of the early morning.
After the four of them had breakfast in the home canteen next to the science building, they hurried to the classroom. The classroom was already full of people. After the four entered the classroom, there were only a few seats in the back row. However, this was exactly what Ye Yunzhou wanted, because he didn’t like sitting in the front.
“Hey, Old Ye, did you see that? Why do we feel that Li Sisi and the others look at us unkindly? We didn’t offend them, did we?” Zhao Tianyu poked Ye Yunzhou and said.
Zhao Tianyu is a very observant person. When he just came in, he noticed that the girls in his class seemed to look unkind, especially Li Sisi and Song Tiantian.
“Who cares about them? We come to Yanda to study, not to be licking dogs for others. Don’t pay attention to them.”
Zhao Tianyu gave Ye Yunzhou a thumbs up, feeling that he was right.
After a while, the counselor strode into the classroom and wrote the three words “Zhao Qiming” on the blackboard. Ye Yunzhou looked up and saw that he was about 40 years old, with a short haircut, about 1.7 meters tall, and casually matched with a pair of washed jeans and a T-shirt, which made him look energetic.
In Yanda, the head teacher and the counselor are not the same person, and their responsibilities and roles are also different.
The head teacher is mainly responsible for the academic guidance and daily management of students, including students’ learning progress, course arrangement, and grade management. The head teacher is usually a teacher in the college or department, who has a deeper understanding and guidance of students’ academic development. Xue Yalan, the head teacher of Ye Yunzhou’s class, is an associate professor in the department. In addition to managing students’ daily lives, she also undertakes some undergraduate teaching work.
The counselor focuses more on students’ ideological education, mental health, life guidance, and career planning.
Counselors are usually full-time staff. They have more frequent daily contact with students and are responsible for solving problems encountered by students in their studies and lives.
The counselor introduced himself briefly, and then said some words to encourage the students. He cleared his throat and said, “Students, the class cadre election of our class starts now! Interested students please come to the stage to speak, everyone should be more enthusiastic!”
The class was suddenly filled with an atmosphere of excitement and tension.
“Lao Zhao, come on, buddy supports you.” Ye Yunzhou poked Zhao Tianyu.
“Hurry up, be the first one to try it, don’t let others get there first.” Li Hanlin said.
“……”
Encouraged by his roommates and driven by his dream, the somewhat introverted Zhao Tianyu bravely rushed to the podium first. He first wrote his name on the blackboard, and then mustered up the courage to deliver his campaign speech: “Hello everyone, I’m running for class monitor. It is said that the speed of a train depends on the locomotive. I want to be the locomotive of our class’s “Friendship” train, leading everyone forward all the way, whether it is the highway of learning or the winding mountain road of activities, it can be stable and smooth!”
After Zhao Tianyu finished speaking, there was a warm applause from the audience, especiallyThe three people, Ye Yunzhou and others, who were sitting in the back row, slammed the table. If the counselor, Lao Zhao, hadn’t stopped them in time, the table would have been broken by the three people.
However, just as Zhao Tianyu stepped down from the stage, Li Sisi, who was on the girls’ side, walked up to the podium with big strides. She also wrote her name on the blackboard first, made a brief self-introduction, and said in a leisurely tone: “Dear classmates, hello! I am here to run for class monitor. It is said that behind every successful class there is an excellent class monitor. Although I don’t have superpowers, I have a heart that loves this class very much. I will care about everyone like a caring little cotton-padded jacket, and I can charge for everyone like a female warrior, leading our class to ride the wind and waves all the way!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the classroom immediately burst into applause.
“Lao Zhao, you are in danger. She is more popular than you.”
“Lao Zhao, why don’t you go up and do something?” Ye Yunzhou instigated.
Zhao Tianyu blushed and shook his head.
Then, the introverted Zhang Tianzhi also plucked up the courage to go on stage, blushing and said: “Well… I want to run for the study committee. Studying is like leveling up by killing monsters. I am willing to be everyone’s strategy master, share secrets, team up and play together, let us “kill all sides” on the battlefield of knowledge and become the best class of academic masters in the school!”
At this time, Li Hanlin in the back row couldn’t hold back, he went on stage and said humorously: “Hello everyone! I am running for the life committee. I am nothing special, but I have a little “social gangster syndrome” and can chat with anyone. If you have any problems in life in the future, feel free to find me, I will be your main companion!”
“Fuck, didn’t this bastard say he would not participate in the class committee election? He actually went up to make trouble.”
The other three people in Ye Yunzhou’s dormitory were dumbfounded when they saw Li Hanlin’s bastard appearance on the stage.
At this time, Zhao Yuhang, the “student tyrant” in the class, walked up to the podium slowly, pushed his glasses and said: “I want to run for the secretary of the Youth League. I will be like a lighthouse, illuminating the ideological route for everyone, leading our class to sail in the right direction, and become the most cohesive and positive class in the whole school!”
“Hey, Lao Han, is this the guy who got one more point than you in the Olympic Games?” Zhao Tianyu heard Han Mo mention it last night.
“Yes, he got full marks in the Olympic Games, and I just missed him by one point. This guy is very strong.”
“……”
Amidst applause, the last candidate, Chen Xiaochun, walked up to the podium. He smiled and said: “Classmates, I am running for the organization committee. I don’t have any other advantages, but I am more creative and can come up with all kinds of wonderful activity ideas to make our university life colorful! I hope everyone can pick me.”
The classmates were amused by these interesting speeches, and the classroom was full of laughter. Everyone cast their votes carefully according to the performance of each candidate.
Finally, after counting the votes and statistics, the new class leaders were born.
Zhao Tianyu, who wanted to be elected as the class leader in dormitory 303, was picked by Li Sisi and failed to be elected as the class monitor.
Li Hanlin, who just wanted to go up to the dormitory to do some work and didn’t want to be elected as a class leader, became the life committee member.
The counselor looked at everyone and said with a smile: “I hope that the elected class leaders can be serious and responsible, and the students who are not elected should not be discouraged. There will be many opportunities in the future. Let us work together to create an excellent class.”
