Monday, October 17.

Pei Qian came to the company as usual to sit for a while, but no one came to the door.

He casually swiped the web page, suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly took out his mobile phone to check Ma Yang's Weibo.

As a result, Lao Ma's Weibo was not updated all weekend!

Pei Qian was a little puzzled, what does this mean, the old horse forgot?

Got a weekend out? Didn't log in to Weibo at all?

But it's impossible to think about it, although Lao Ma has always been hot for three minutes to do things, but this time the time is too short, and three minutes haven't passed, Lao Ma doesn't have a reason to give up so quickly, right?

So why didn't you post a new Weibo for two days over the weekend?

Pei Qian was afraid that there would be something wrong here, so he hurriedly called Lao Ma.

"Hello? Brother Qian? "The voice of the old horse came from the other end of the phone, very awake, not like he was asleep.

Pei Qian knows very well that Lao Ma is not a person who likes to sleep lazy, and he can successfully get up when there is a class in the morning in winter.

Lao Ma is a hard-working bastard, so it is obviously suspicious that he didn't post a second Weibo all weekend.

To Ma Yang, Pei Qian didn't play with those twists and turns, and asked directly: "How much money have you sent out so far?" ”

Ma Yang: "I haven't paid a penny." ”

Pei Qian was stunned for a moment: "Why?" ”

Ma Yang said as a matter of course: "This is the dream fund I finally won, and it is your affirmation of my hard work, Brother Qian!" I have to see a message or retweet that I really dream of in order to make money, I can't just play it! ”

Pei Qian couldn't laugh or cry.

That's the reason!

After Ma Yang posted that Weibo, he has been reading comments and retweets, and once he sees a message with a dream, he will consider making money.

But his Weibo has only such a few fans, not many people see it, and those who see it don't believe him, thinking that he is lying, even those who will be suspicious of it, they don't write their dreams seriously.

Therefore, none of these messages could get into the eyes of Lao Ma, so he didn't give a penny to these people.

He doesn't make money, and others think it's a scammer and another gimmick, and he won't write a comment seriously.

So it dragged on the whole weekend.

Pei Qian couldn't help but sigh, worthy of being an old horse, there is really you!

Pei Qian asked with some curiosity: "Then why don't you emphasize it to everyone and let everyone write some more dreamy comments?" ”

Ma Yang: "That's not good! I'm an official and serious internal employee of Tengda, so I can't lose my share! Besides, I'm giving money, if I post another Weibo to emphasize this, won't it seem like I'm kneeling to give them money? Definitely not! ”

"Believe it or not, I'll see who the first lucky one is."

Pei Qian silently raised his thumb and said, "Yes." In ancient times, there were Shang Yang and Mu Lixin, and now there are Ma Yang Weibo coins, all of whom are heroes among people. ”

When Shang Yang migrated to Mu Lixin, many people watched, but no one really did it, because no one believed it.

For some reason, these two things are a little bit similar.

Of course, Pei Qian couldn't tell whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

There is no risk for Lao Ma to become an Internet celebrity, but the money has not been spent!

So Pei Qian didn't know whether to support or oppose this kind of behavior.

After thinking about it, let the old horse decide for himself!

"Well, you're doing the right thing, keep sticking to your ideas!"

After hanging up the phone, Pei Qian looked at the time and prepared to go to Outu Technology.

In the last cycle, Pei Qian threw a lot of money at Outu Technology, mainly on the newly established imaging and software laboratory of Outu Technology.

In this cycle, the previous research of Outu Technology must come up with a product, otherwise it will violate the rules of the system.

Considering that the time of this cycle is relatively tight, Pei Qian felt that he still had to go over and take a look to ensure that there were products that could be taken out, and he could not make a lot of money.

……

Outu Technology, Conference Room.

The backbone employees of Changyou and Outu Technology all arrived and began to report their work.

"Mr. Pei, according to your previous work arrangement, we will have two main tasks until January next year."

"The first is to update the feature-rich version of the OTTO OS, which includes a lot of useful system features, especially the tuning of the camera system in the imaging lab."

"For the new camera system, we have prepared some optimization algorithms, including the beautification effect provided by users when taking selfies, etc."

"Moreover, we have reached a strategic cooperation agreement with Xunke Technology to develop our own intelligent voice assistant on the basis of their artificial intelligence voice assistant, which should be updated to the new OTTO OS in time!"

"You know, at present, only Pineapple's flagship phones are equipped with this function, and if we can be the first to update to the otto E1 phone, it will definitely be very beneficial to enhance our brand value!"

"Secondly, we intend to create a smart speaker product for the new intelligent voice assistant, at present, in China, this field is still in a blank state, if we can seize the opportunity, it is definitely good news for enriching our product line!"

A question mark slowly floated out of Pei Qian's head.

？

Artificial intelligence voice assistant?

No, there shouldn't have been this in the previous development plan, right?

Moreover, this thing shouldn't have appeared so early in China, right?

Pineapple's latest flagship mobile phone can use voice assistants because Pineapple directly spent 200 million dollars to acquire an artificial intelligence company with text chat services as its main business, and then cooperated with the world's largest speech recognition manufacturer to realize the voice recognition function.

And that's just what happened this year.

Because of the different languages, Pei Qian originally expected that it would take at least five years for similar artificial intelligence voice assistants to appear in China.

But looking at Changyou's statement, this company called Xunke Technology seems to have been doing research in this area, and there is already a relatively mature Chinese intelligent voice assistant, which can be directly used if you change it on this basis!

Pei Qian suddenly had a sense of crisis, thinking of the special reward at the time of settlement.

Isn't this what the system calls a random technical breakthrough?

Domestic technology in this area is five years ahead of schedule? Directly on par with top foreign companies?

Pei Qian suddenly panicked, but after thinking about it calmly, he felt that things were not so bad.

These artificial intelligence voice assistants were quite mentally retarded when they first came out, and it can only be regarded as artificial intelligence disability when they are lifted.

It will take at least another three or five years for the technology to mature, so don't be too nervous.

Of course, Pei Qian didn't dare to take it lightly.

After all, this is a new outlet, although it is an artificial intellectual disability, but for consumers who have not seen the world, this thing is still very attractive, and it is not excluded that they will buy and buy like crazy.

Thinking of this, Pei Qian asked tentatively: "In other words, there was no artificial intelligence voice assistant in the original development plan?" Did you see the technological breakthrough on the side of Xunke Technology and decided to add it temporarily? ”

"If that's the case, I think it's better to take it easy."

"There is still a lot of work in other aspects, and I am afraid that you will not be able to arrange the time, or it will affect the completion of other tasks."

Chang You smiled and said, "Mr. Pei, don't worry, definitely not!" ”

"Before, we originally planned to work on software and hardware together, and wanted to build a new machine. But Mr. Pei, you said at the time that we only do software, and it is best to send mobile phones once a year, so we cut all hardware research and development plans. ”

So, I just had some time! It is very suitable to be an artificial intelligence voice assistant that belongs to Otto OS! ”

"So Mr. Pei, your idea is right, you have to set aside a little wealth for R&D work, otherwise it will be difficult to seize this kind of opportunity!"

Pei Qian: "......"

It's embarrassing.

Could it be my pot again?

Every time he encounters this situation, Pei Qian wants to go back to the previous cycle and beat himself up, but he can't wear it.

It seems that this artificial intelligence voice assistant has to be done.

Then it's time for the next topic.

Find a way to make this thing not work!

In the current market environment, there are smart homes, such as when Pei Qian asked Liang Qingfan to decorate the sloth apartment, lighting, glass, etc., can be intelligently adjusted through the LCD panel.

But these things are actually quite rare, because of the high cost, in the eyes of many people are not practical, so there are few cases of installation in home improvement.

If Pei Qian hadn't been trying to raise the rent of the sloth's apartment, he wouldn't have thought of installing these things.

The same is true for artificial intelligence voice assistants on mobile phones, not all of them are cheap, only flagship mobile phones of individual manufacturers such as pineapple mobile phones are equipped, which is an outlet.

If there is another smart speaker, maybe it can really sell for a lot of money!

Pei Qian thought about it carefully and thought of a countermeasure.

But...... Where to start?

Let's start with its name!

Pei Qian pondered for a moment and asked, "So...... Does this artificial intelligence voice system have a name? ”

Chang You was stunned for a moment: "Oh, not yet." Or, Mr. Pei, will you give one? ”

"I think the names given by Mr. Pei are very quintessential!"

Pei Qian nodded: "Then it's called: Ais." ”

"The English name is AEEIS."

"Ais......" Chang You said twice, "is there any deep meaning?" ”

Pei Qian explained: "It is an abbreviation of 'An Efficient and Effortless Intelligent System',.. S。 ”

Chang You suddenly said: "'An efficient and labor-saving intelligent system'? Good name! Very apt! ”

"As an intelligent voice assistant, its role is to help us save time and effort and improve efficiency, which is a really apt name!"

Pei Qian smiled slightly.

In fact, the deep meaning of this name is the abbreviation of "An Elegant and Easygoing Intelligent System", that is, "an elegant and easygoing intelligent system".

What does it mean to be elegant and easy-going, I know everything.

As for why it was named, of course, it was because Pei Qian had already figured out how to arrange it.
