Chapter 2758 Advances in Technology
Domestic celebration banquets are usually really "banquets". The table is set and everyone sits down to eat and socialize while eating. Abroad, it is usually a celebration cocktail party.
If it is a banquet, it is usually called "dinner", such as a charity dinner or the Golden Globe Awards dinner.
What Ziweixing is hosting tonight is not a cocktail party, but a dinner party.
The reason for this arrangement is mainly to take care of veteran employees from China and employees who have made significant contributions. They may not be comfortable with Western-style cocktail parties, and they may not even speak English.
A total of more than 300 guests attended tonight, and there were fifty or sixty domestic Ziweixing guests. Most of the guests were Wall Street capitalists, coming to actively celebrate the successful listing of Ziweixing.
If we adopt the open format of a cocktail party, it will be difficult for these people from China to let go.
The dinner format is much more friendly.
Even if you are not good at socializing, it is enough to sit in your seat, eat quietly, and feel the atmosphere of the scene.
Moreover, Ziweixing has raised so much money and has to do some social welfare things, so tonight's theme, in addition to celebrations, also includes a charity auction - donating money to the hearing-impaired and visually impaired.
This is also an essential link.
In this regard, there are also many politically correct "loving people" in the United States who mobilize public opinion every day to force wealthy people to donate, such as Elon Musk.
In his previous life, after Musk became the richest man in the world thanks to the skyrocketing market value of Tesla, he was targeted and said that he was taking advantage of ordinary people by not paying taxes or making donations!
At that time, Musk happened to have just completed the exercise of Tesla shares... He had previously signed the most exaggerated betting options agreement in history with Tesla's board of directors. He did not take any money from Tesla. But if Tesla's stock price increases tenfold in five years, he can get shares worth $55 billion.
Then, he really did it!
The top is filled with these stocks.
However, if you want to take full advantage of these options, according to U.S. law, you have to pay tax, a 20% capital tax... In other words, you have to pay $11 billion in taxes.
Musk raised money by selling Tesla shares and paid this huge asset tax, becoming the highest individual tax payer in the history of the United States.
But even so, countless people still stared at him and scolded him, saying that he did not pay taxes or donate money, and was unkind because of his wealth. Even his own son, who had been transformed into a woman, broke up with him.
Musk's weakness is that he cares too much about public opinion. In a fit of anger, he sold all his family's mansions, bought a container worth several thousand yuan to live in, and fired his assistants and secretaries.
Zhou Buqi won't be as soft as his ears, but he still has to do what needs to be done.
In particular, this is also related to the brand value of Ziweixing.
Zhou Buqi came to the stage to speak. In addition to thanking everyone for their support and trust in Ziweixing, the most important thing was to talk about donating money to the hearing-impaired and visually impaired.
He spoke of a mission.
"Everyone should have heard of Rokid-go. It can be said to be the hottest technology topic in the world during this period. Artificial intelligence has grown tremendously and can handle some extremely complex operations and do things that humans cannot. matter."
"It's certainly not as simple as just playing Go."
"Next, we hope that similar AI technology can be applied in the fields of automatic imaging and automatic sound generation, and be connected to the human brain through AI chip processing... This is not a joke, this is something that is happening This is what Ziweixing is trying to do."
"All human hearing and vision will eventually feed back to form the brain's neuron activity. In other words, as long as we master the rules of neuron activity, even if some disabled people's auditory systems fail and their visual systems are damaged, they will still be able to It is possible to see the world and hear the world!”
"We only need to connect the brain and the chip, and then use artificial intelligence technology to quickly and promptly feed the images and sounds in the real world to the brain and form corresponding brain activities."
"Today, we are conducting a charity auction to raise funds for the hearing-impaired and visually impaired people to help them improve their lives. I believe that in the not-too-distant future, maybe ten years later, we will be able to complete the technical Make breakthroughs and solve these problems! Let hearing-impaired and visually impaired people around the world live like normal people!"
Zhou Buqi's argument, which sounded like science fiction, attracted the warmest applause from the audience.
Believe it or not, at least you have to support it.
However, this is really not a high-profile matter. This is a plan that Ziweixing and Ziweixing International started two years ago, and it is also an area that Zhou Buqi is most concerned about.
In his hometown in the countryside, he had a cousin named Zhou who was deaf and mute.
Not innate.
When I was a child, I had a cold and a fever. I went to the hospital for an injection and got the wrong injection. At that time, there was a lack of understanding of the side effects of drugs in China. They only focused on their effectiveness and did not care about the hidden dangers. They continued to use ototoxic drugs and became deaf-mute.
In fact, there are now relatively mature cochlear solutions that can help some hearing-impaired people rebuild their hearing. However, the conditions for use are relatively harsh and the price is too expensive, making it difficult to popularize.
In particular, this product is not covered by medical insurance in China, making it out of reach for many people at the bottom.
There is also not enough technology.
The sound emitted from the cochlea is easily distorted and deformed, which is different from the real sound. It is too stimulating and uncomfortable to wear.
In the long run, this is only a temporary solution.
The future must be brain-computer chips.
As long as we make good use of artificial intelligence, we will have the opportunity to decipher the relationship between a large number of human behaviors and brain activities, and then use brain activities to infer human behaviors!
Not just hearing and sight.
For example, if a person wants to speak, but he is voiceless, he can use the brain activity signals to determine what he wants to say. The small speaker he carries with him uses artificial intelligence to simulate and send out what he wants to say, and the speaker speaks it.
For example, how can a person type and write an article without hands? It can also be done through similar actions. If the computing power of the chip is strong enough and the AI technology is mature enough, maybe writers in the future will not need a keyboard, but can directly implant a chip, sit in front of the computer screen, and write with their thoughts.
Faster and more convenient.
From the traditional use of pens and keyboards to the use of thoughts, this is the progress of technology.
…
In the front, Boss Zhou is impassioned and is the brightest star in the spotlight.
Liu Qing and Zheng Xiaoli sat together and discussed more cooperation models between the International Department and Ziweixing International. After all, the cooperation between Yahoo App and the International Department was so successful.
"Has the rotation matter been resolved?" Liu Qing has been paying attention to this matter. After all, she has to go abroad on a business trip, which is closely related to the international department she is in charge of.
Zheng Xiaoli nodded lightly and said with a smile: "Well, it's settled. From now on, we'll have one shift every three months. That's it. Whether it's a business trip to the United States, or a trip to South Korea, Japan, or Singapore, it must be limited to three months." Form an institutionalized charter.”
Liu Qingdao: "The huge success of Yahoo App is enough to show that we have found a way to develop overseas markets quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively. From domestic to foreign and from foreign to domestic, this can become our greatest competitive advantage. . It cannot be limited to Yahoo App, it must form a detailed set of theories and processes, and it must be more replicable.”
"Yeah, working on it."
Zheng Xiaoli nodded.
Liu Qing said: "Our big boss is interested in you. He wants to focus on promoting you. I have read the newspapers in the past two days. There are criticisms from women's rights organizations, saying that Ziweixing lacks female directors. Women There are too few senior executives.”
Zheng Xiaoli twitched her lips, "Who would have trouble with money? As long as you are strong, who cares what race and gender you are? The greatest value of business is the attribute of making money. Whoever can make money can get the upper hand..."
"That's what I say, but the liberals here in Europe and the United States are really raising their heads..." Liu Qing shook her head and smiled, "Anyway, this is a good thing for you. If you want to be promoted in the future, there is someone more suitable than you. Candidate? Yahoo App is very successful, but you can’t just focus on Yahoo. Your goal should be the entire Ziweixing International. You must summarize the success of Yahoo App in detail step by step, and then share it. Don’t mean."
Zheng Xiaoli said: "I know, I'm not stingy. Last time I told my boss the secret of Yahoo App's success, which is closely related to his fragmented traffic thinking."
"What about growth hackers?" Liu Qing glanced at him, "Didn't you say that fragmented traffic and growth hackers are the two major factors for the success of Yahoo App?"
"Well……"
Zheng Xiaoli was a little embarrassed.
Liu Qing saw it immediately and was a little surprised, "Didn't you say?"
Zheng Xiaoli quickly explained: "It's not that I want to hide anything, it's that... time was very tight at the time. The big boss had an appointment with the senior executives of Ziweixing Global, and I didn't have time to say more."
Liu Qing shook her head, "This is not a reason."
Zheng Xiaoli said: "For this reason, I really don't have much time. Fragmented traffic is a concept he proposed, which plays a very important role. I can make it clear by simply saying something, and it can be done faster and more efficiently." Report clearly and efficiently. Growth hacking is a new concept proposed by Americans. If you talk about it... you may not be able to explain it clearly for a while."
Liu Qing said angrily: "I think you just want to flatter me, right? You just talk about fragmented traffic and elevate Boss Zhou's theory to the most important position in the success of Yahoo App. Isn't it just to make him happy?"
Zheng Xiaoli said: "This is a fact."
Liu Qing disagreed very much, "No, you have to make it clear! You can't always coax him to come, you can't always let him stay in his comfort zone. You have to teach him, this is your responsibility!"
