Cultivate a black technology god

Chapter 9 Beginning Volume
During lunch, Xia Zhi was scrolling through the video on her phone, and saw a woman posting her daily life.

At first he didn't see where the highlights were, but the number of likes and comments on the video was very high.

He clicked on the comments, and saw a highly praised article saying that the up master was like the popular star Yang Mi.

Xia Zhi came back to his senses, thinking about it, no wonder seeing the up master felt familiar.

Generally there are many passers-by who look like celebrities, but none of them are as popular as this.

The biggest reason is that this up looks ugly.

An ugly person looks a lot like a good-looking person.

This is a paradox.

But the human face is so magical.

Although this up master is ugly, he has Yang Mi's eyebrows and face shape.

There are also comments that this is before Yang Mi's plastic surgery.

Interestingly, Gao Zan commented that the up master looked like Yang Mi, and the up master replied with a thank you.

Some people booed: one dared to speak and the other dared to thank.

Xia Zhi laughed it off, and when he was about to watch the next video, he suddenly had an inspiration.

He returned to the previous video, watched the video of the up owner again, and murmured:

"If the woman in this video is replaced by Yang Mi."

"Have it!"

Xia Zhi had an idea, put down his cell phone, finished his meal quickly, and returned to the teaching and research office.

Some people took a lunch break in the teaching and research room at noon, and some people took advantage of the break to watch dramas.

Xia Zhi is studying how to make an ordinary person feel like a star when shooting videos.

Roommate Zhang Wenqiang came over and saw that Xia Zhi was still typing code, and said with a smile:

"No, is it so curly?"

Xia Zhi laughed and said:

"Suddenly inspiration came to me."

Zhang Wenqiang took a drink, sat next to Xia Zhi, and asked:
"tell me the story."

Xia Zhi pointed to his face and said:
"Which star do you think I look like?"

Zhang Wenqiang looked carefully, then shook his head:

"I've been watching you for five years, but I don't think you look like a star."

Xia Zhi covered his face with a piece of paper, only showing his eyes and said:
"Just look at the eyes, which star do you look like?"

Zhang Wenqiang was stunned for a moment and said:

"How do you guess, it looks too much."

Xia Zhi laughed and said:

"Not only the eyes, but also the nose, mouth, face shape, and bone phase. Take it out alone, and you can always find one that matches the star."

Zhang Wenqiang said strangely:

"Like what happened?"

Xia Zhi said:

"The goal of the beauty camera is to make the people in the camera look better. I will make people improve in the direction of stars and find a balance between the two."

Zhang Wenqiang's expression became strange:
"Are you a tailoring monster? That is to say, not all the facial features of a star are beautiful. If you put it together like this, it may be uglier than the original person."

Xia Zhi smiled and said:

"Don't worry, run with the model first."

Zhang Wenqiang thought of something and asked:
"Where did you get the face models of the stars?"

Xia Zhi said mysteriously:
"Bought on the black market."

Zhang Wenqiang looked disgusted:
"Isn't it? Even if the model can be used? There will be problems with this thing after the review."

Xia Zhi pretended to be mysterious and did not explain.

After all, he was just trying, and only by constantly trying could he accumulate system task points.

After the model was written, Xia Zhi used his own face to test it.

After the rendering result came out, he looked at himself on the screen and couldn't let go of it for a long time.

Zhang Wenqiang smiled while clutching his stomach.

Sure enough, Zhang Wenqiang guessed it, and the Stitching Monster didn't have a good result.

Xia Zhi analyzed it and felt that celebrities' faces are most likely not because they are good-looking, but because they are famous and distinctive.

Putting together the facial features of these people will definitely not have a good effect.

He thought that since it is necessary to mark a good-looking face, it can use a standardized face, such as the face of a character model.

With sharp edges and corners, except for no features, there are almost no shortcomings. It is simply the most suitable face for a virtual star.

Therefore, Xia Zhi continued to render, and finally found that the people had indeed become better-looking, but they could no longer see the original figures.

This time, there is a complete change of person in the shot, which is even more distorted than the effect of beauty turned on to the top.

Xia Zhi was a little distressed.

Zhang Wenqiang patted Xia Zhi on the shoulder and said:
"Stop staying up and go out for some late-night snacks."

Only then did Xia Zhi realize that it was past eleven o'clock.

He didn't expect to devote himself to work, and the time passed so quickly.

Went out to eat at a roadside stall with Zhang Wenqiang.

Although it was eleven o'clock, there were still many roadside stalls.

When it was time to bake, Xia Zhi glanced at the system panel:
[Task No. 2 is in progress: Face image processing algorithm. 】

【Development time: 41h】

[Energy input: 6342 points]

[Investment funds: 1462 points]

[External assistance: 4656 points]

[Total mission points: 75 points]

[Note: The minimum points required to enable system assistance: 100 task points. 】

"Come on, come on, and then use Wen Qiang's high-end equipment to increase the external assistance points." Xia Zhi murmured in his heart.

While eating, Zhang Wenqiang asked Xia Zhi to sleep in his dormitory later.

Xia Zhi said strangely:

"Do you have any free beds in your dormitory?"

Zhang Wenqiang nodded:
"One of my roommates dropped out of school because of illness."

Xia Zhi was very sympathetic, took a bite and asked:
"What's wrong with you?"

Zhang Wenqiang pointed to the chicken heart Xia Zhi was chewing, and said:
"Heart disease."

Seeing whether Xia Zhi believed it or not, Zhang Wenqiang explained:
"There was too much pressure and he was a little depressed. After the school communicated with his family, he was taken back to recuperate."

Xia Zhi didn't affect his appetite in the slightest, he ate the delicious chicken heart, took a mouthful of Sprite, and said:

"It doesn't have to be so curly."

Zhang Wenqiang sighed:

"Everyone rolls, there is no way."

While the two were eating, Zhang Wenqiang suddenly clicked on Xia Zhi and said:

"Look behind you on the left, there is a beautiful woman."

Xia Zhi looked back and saw that the beauty Zhang Wenqiang was talking about was quite pretty.

He laughed:
"It's okay, haven't you noticed that there are more beauties at night?"

Zhang Wenqiang nodded:
"Because the night hides many flaws, and the light and shadow effects make people's facial features more three-dimensional."

Zhang Wenqiang didn't mean to say it, Xia Zhi heard it and had another idea.

He put down the bamboo stick and said:

"I see!"

Zhang Wenqiang frowned and said:

"What do you know?"

Xia Zhi said:

"What you just said reminded me, if my camera can produce the effect of night, and then make the light and shadow to have a 3D effect, the portrait will look much better."

Zhang Wenqiang paused, nodded, and said:

"It's a good idea."

Xia Zhi then urged:
"Hurry up and eat, let's hurry back."

Zhang Wenqiang scolded:
"Why are you working so hard? Are you crazy? The teaching and research office is about to close."

Xia Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile:
"Sorry, I'm a little emotional."

Zhang Wenqiang looked at Xia Zhi, feeling unclear:
"In the past, you were so fucking lazy, you copied my homework, and all your exams were surprises. Why do you want to study all of a sudden after one year of graduation?"

Xia Zhi laughed and said:

"I realized that only learning can change destiny."

Zhang Wenqiang sighed:

"Even you are starting to take the test. This world is so crazy. By the way, if you had worked so hard before, you would have gotten a 985."

The two were eating and chatting, and it was almost twelve o'clock before returning to school.
