The two walked back to the rental house with a smile, today's weather is a little stuffy, Niu Xiaoqiang wiped the sweat on his forehead after entering the house: "I'm sweating, go wash first." ”

Zhang Xiaolan nodded, "I'm also sweating, let's take a shower and call again." ”

The two went back to their rooms, washed up and changed into clean clothes. Zhang Xiaolan came to the living room and dialed the phone number of Zhang Guangmao's office.

It's 11 p.m. in the U.S. and 11 a.m. in China. Zhang Xiaolan felt that her father should work in the office at this time.

Niu Xiaoqiang was embarrassed to listen, he poured a glass of cold boiled water and turned upstairs to teach himself computer technology.

After about ten minutes, there was a knock on the bedroom door: "Xiaoqiang, I have already asked clearly, Liu Xue will leave for the United States in a week." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang opened the door: "Oh, let's go to the airport to pick up the airport together." ”

Zhang Xiaolan snorted: "Before she comes to the United States, I will move back to the dormitory." ”

If there is no one else, Zhang Xiaolan doesn't have to worry too much about living here with Niu Xiaoqiang. But Liu Xue and Yang Pan are coming to the United States, and it would be inappropriate for her to still live with Niu Xiaoqiang.

Niu Xiaoqiang didn't keep it: "Well, I'll send you back when the time comes." ”

Zhang Xiaolan nodded, turned around and went downstairs. After walking a few steps, she suddenly stopped, turned her head and said, "Xiaoqiang, besides me, are there any other women who have lived here?"

Niu Xiaoqiang was slightly stunned and said in surprise: "How do you know?"

Zhang Xiaolan took out a few strands of long blonde hair from her pocket with a smile: "This is what I found in the cracks of the sofa and on the floor of the kitchen, you are very dishonest, you have only been in the United States for less than a month and you have learned badly." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled extremely embarrassed, not knowing how to answer.

It was the first time for Zhang Xiaolan to see him so narrow-minded, and she knew that her guess was completely correct at a glance.

She rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will help you keep it a secret, and I will never tell anyone else." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled dryly: "Thank you, actually...... In fact, this matter is quite, and it even makes people feel ridiculous. ”

Zhang Xiaolan's face was full of curiosity: "Oh? Can you tell me?"

Niu Xiaoqiang felt that Zhang Xiaolan was more reliable, so he didn't hide it, told what happened, and finally sighed and said with a wry smile: "To be honest, I don't even know what my relationship with Kailina is." ”

Zhang Xiaolan sighed: "American women are open, if it were me, she would never be so bold, by the way, does she know about your engagement?"

Niu Xiaoqiang shook his head: "I don't know yet, I don't seem to want to know what she means, but I'm still ready to tell her the situation clearly, so as not to cause a misunderstanding." ”

Zhang Xiaolan nodded slightly: "It's okay to make it clear, you're busy, I'll go to sleep." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled bitterly in his heart: If people don't know what to do unless they do, it's okay it's Zhang Xiaolan, if it were someone else, maybe what would they think of me.

Next, Niu Xiaoqiang and Zhang Xiaolan worked overtime and spent three days assembling the robot.

The robot is 1.75 meters tall and weighs 80 kilograms, and in addition to the transmission, a laptop computer is installed. This computer was provided by Professor Watson personally, and the performance is very good.

Looking at the robot's sci-fi appearance, Watson rubbed his hands a little excitedly: "This robot looks very good, just looking at it gives people a very high-end feeling, when the program is written, we will show it to the public, presumably it will definitely cause a sensation at that time!"

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled slightly and reminded: "Professor, don't forget what I told you when the time comes, don't shake me out, if others ask, you will say that this is your own masterpiece, as for me, I am just a follower to help you." ”

Zhang Xiaolan had heard Niu Xiaoqiang talk about the stakes, and she could understand Niu Xiaoqiang, but she still felt sorry that Niu Xiaoqiang lost such a good opportunity to become famous in the world, so she sighed: "It's a pity, if it's in China, you don't have to cover it up like this." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang said: If it is in China, it is even more impossible for me to show my face, some people in China definitely eat people and do not spit out bones.

Watson nodded: "Don't worry, I'll pay attention to it then, now that the real thing has been made, shouldn't you conduct a simulation test?"

Niu Xiaoqiang snorted: "I will start computer modeling work at home tomorrow, and then the simulation test, after the test, I will submit the data to you as soon as possible, professor, please help me deal with the school matters." ”

Watson agreed: "No problem, I am your mentor, as long as I want to give you a holiday, no one else will say anything, you can work at home with peace of mind." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded, "While there is still some time, please ask the two of you to help me collect the basic parameters of the robot." ”

The so-called basic parameters refer to the height of the robot, its weight, the length of its hands and feet, and so on.

These parameters will be used for modeling, and without the support of the underlying parameters, it will not be possible.

It took more than 20 minutes to collect the parameters. Professor Watson found a cart, and the three of them transported the robot to the warehouse for storage.

This warehouse is owned by the School of Computer Science and is dedicated to storing valuables with a very high level of security. As the vice president of the School of Computer Science, Watson has a lot of power. He does not need to apply at all, he can decide on the right to use the warehouse himself.

After Niu Xiaoqiang entered the warehouse, he saw several large-frame computers, and he was curious: "Professor, are these supercomputers?"

Watson nodded: "These are miniature supercomputers, and they were all bought for backup." ”

Niu Xiaoqiang then asked, "Their prices must be very expensive, right?"

Watson continued to nod: "The retail price of one is $3.8 million. ”

Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't help but smack his tongue secretly, and thought in his heart: MIT is rich, and it actually spent more than 20 million US dollars to buy a few computers for backup, such financial resources are only afraid that ordinary companies can't compare, right?

MIT is a private university, and behind it stands a number of powerful corporations and consortia, which receive more sponsorship money each year than some of the larger corporations, otherwise they would not have the money to build such a high-end laboratory.

Of course, these sponsors are not philanthropists, they are in partnership with MIT. They pay to help MIT improve its hardware, and if MIT develops valuable results, these people can prioritize cooperation.

Niu Xiaoqiang had a little understanding of these situations, and after a secret sigh, he stopped talking and helped Watson lock the robot into the safe.
