Hammer of Technology

"I remember that you are not interested in the grand project of the metaverse, and you once asserted that it will not happen within ten years?"

Ning Wei quickly replied: "Yes, but in fact, what I said is very clear, that is, if I am not interested in this matter, it is of course impossible within ten years. In fact, I am not very interested. The main reason is that I am very busy, and it takes too much energy to design a new-architecture CPU and a universal operating system. I have other arrangements, but now I also have some new ideas, such as future re-planning of the operating system to be more suitable for virtual Don’t forget, Mark, when Google yelled the metaverse slogan, it still used the not-so-mature theory I put forward at that time as the basis.”

These words made Mark Zuckerberg silent for a longer time, and it took a long time to organize the language, and said: "If I understand correctly, you mean that if you want, you can make the metaverse in a short time. Have the operating foundation, or build the framework of the initial metaverse?"

"That's right, that's probably what I meant." Ning Wei replied with certainty.

"With all due respect, Ning, do you know how many relevant technical personnel in my company are working on this project? They are all very creative people, and very smart, no matter what new things they accept quickly, and they are all Working hard for the same goal, and even achieved a lot of results. So do you really think you are better than these people combined?"

Mark Zuckerberg asked seriously, and the speed of speech began to become faster.

"Mark, tell me, in meta, how many people are working on your most basic software architecture every day? Are there more programmers than those who are working on metaverse?"

"Sorry, but I think the specific composition of the researchers is a secret."

"Okay, okay, it doesn't matter if you don't tell me, but what you can't deny is that there are so many excellent talents in meta company, but no one has discovered that there are fatal loopholes in the software they develop...but I found out gone."

"This……"

"And to be honest, Mark, I really don't care much about how many people in your company are working on the metaverse. There are more scientists in ibm, Google, Microsoft... Of course, including you, and many laboratories in many schools have similar projects. But IMHO, the result of so many people's work is that any product that brings The word "smart" can actually be replaced with mentally handicapped, until I started to teach everyone how to redefine intelligence on the Internet in March, so when doing research, do you really think which side has more people and which side has more people? side stronger?"

"..."

"Okay, I'm not going to waste my tongue anymore, Mark, I invite you to come to Huaxia to participate in our awards ceremony again, if you refuse, I won't invite, I'm too tired, so would you like to come?"

"Maybe I just have time in those days..."

"Then you are welcome, Mark. After you come, I can talk to you about the various elements of the metaverse. Some of my research results may be useful. By the way, I hate people who are not honest. , God knows what I would do if someone cheated on me."

"..."

……

"Mr. Kielsinger, long time no see, how are you doing?"

"It's not that great, to be honest. I'm in a meeting and we need to find a solution to some underlying issues..."

"Thank you very much, Pat, for taking the time to answer my phone during the meeting. So I'll cut the long story short, and I hope to invite you to our March Awards on March 3 next year."

"March 3 next year? Sorry, Ning, I may be very busy in March. In addition to the board of directors within the company, there are some important forums I need to attend. In addition, important board meetings within the company will also be held in March... "

"Oh, that's such a pity. I thought we could use this meeting to discuss a possible cooperation. Pat, I know you don't like me very much, but it doesn't matter, I also like to hold grudges. And guess what , I’m not a businessman yet, so I don’t care much about business gains and losses. If you can’t come, I will still invite that lady from AMD to come to this awards ceremony. Maybe we can reach a package of cooperation plans..."

"Ning, are you threatening?"

"Threat? No, Pat, I'm just stating a fact. After a long time of contact, you will know that I never threaten people, but predict. For example, in the future, our technology may not be able to get a certain market, but I don’t mind benefiting a third party who has a common dislike. Maybe I will share the detailed technical information of the [-]D silicon body with Intel’s friends, including the instruction set we have designed. In this case, maybe we We can share the global high-end general-purpose semiconductor market with our allies, until one day when Intel loses a large amount of market share and resumes the market, we can announce the content of our chat today to the outside world. Of course, we can also write it in my autobiography. You will know, oh, it turns out that the decline of Intel started when you refused a well-intentioned invitation..."

"Haha, you also said that is the future, right? Neither me nor Intel will ever be afraid of any future challenges!"

"Oh, Pat, your words remind me that the future just doesn't seem to be enough. Maybe I can hold a special press conference to announce some undiscovered vulnerabilities of Core series CPUs to the outside world, and then praise Intel friends by the way. Although the vendor’s product uses the same instruction set architecture, its underlying design is far more secure than your product?”

After finishing speaking, before the other party could speak, Ning Wei began to deny himself again: "No, it can't be like this, this is not in line with the established rules. How about this, I will wait until February to report a 2day to you through the official channel you provided. Vulnerabilities, and give you a month to fix them. If you can’t fix them within the time limit, I can just announce that you don’t care about the hardware vulnerabilities on the night of the awards ceremony, and then report the details of the vulnerabilities to the third party. In this way, everything It complies with the regulations. Then, by the way, I would like to praise the products of your friends, regardless of their performance, at least they can beat your products in terms of safety, and then I will continue with my imagination about the future, what do you think?"

Pat Kelsinger didn't seem to know how to answer these words. After a long silence, he asked, "Ning, are you not afraid that I will publish the content of our chat?"

"Haha, Pat, you really know how to joke. Is it good for you to announce this? It's not convenient for you to take it out of context. After all, I still have the full version here. If the full version is announced, everyone seems to be more concerned about your product. Don't trust me, as for me...it really doesn't matter. Anyway, my reputation in your country is not very good. And I don't mind if this kind of reputation continues to decline, so what am I afraid of? As long as I don't violate China The law is enough, don't you think?"

The silence on the other side was longer this time, making Ning Wei too lazy to wait.

"Okay, how about we never once, Mr. Kilsinger, I sincerely invite you to come to Huaxia Capital as a special guest to participate in the March Smart Award ceremony in March next year. Can you spare some time in your busy schedule?" Is the time coming? Before you, Tim, Mark, Arvind... They have all accepted my sincere invitation and confirmed that they will attend this feast."

"Maybe... well, will you send me a formal invitation?"

"Of course, if necessary."

"Well, it suddenly occurred to me that maybe the board meeting can be postponed to late March. Thank you very much for your invitation, Ning, for giving me the opportunity to witness this event that is destined to be unparalleled in the scientific community."

"You're welcome, Pat, I should be thanking you very much for coming to this awards ceremony."

360 An Accident at the Nobel Prize Dinner

The winners of the March Intelligence Award were announced on the official website of the journal "March Artificial Intelligence Development" as scheduled.

Before the announcement, of course, some staff members had already called the winners in advance, and the communication in this area was very smooth.

For the winners, the general reaction was pleasantly surprised.

Not to mention anything else, in the era when China's currency is getting stronger and stronger, a bonus of 300 million is already attractive enough.Although there are two to three people to share the mathematics award and the physics award, even if three people share the money, it is still a lot of income.

After all, not every professor with achievements in scientific research is a billionaire. Scientists like Ning Wei who are billionaires themselves and mathematicians like Perelman who don't care about money at all are only a few.

Of course, the most important thing is the March Award. Although the reputation is not obvious now, which award didn't come here like this?Moreover, the March Award is the first award in human history that is mainly judged by artificial intelligence. If the March Award can really become an award comparable to the Nobel Prize and the Fields Medal in the future, as the first batch of winners, we must written in history.

The academic community should still pay attention to this matter.For example, on the day when the list of winners was announced in March, many scientifically oriented Western media reposted the news through official social software, and used screenshots from the journal's official website.But the impact is not too big. For example, after MIT Technology Review (MIT Technology Review) released this news, most of the comments below are full of "?".

"March Award? What award is this?"

"Huaxia's World Science and Technology Award? I don't seem to have any impression."

"March... so it's an award for artificial intelligence?"

……

Of course, this is not an exciting feedback, probably more than a year is too long, and many people have forgotten the shock brought by the official announcement in March.In an era of over-developed information, without continuous enthusiasm, it is difficult for people to guarantee that their memories will not be lost.

Unlike the West, which only pays attention to this news to the media for some technologies, China's major media are very respectful.After the March Awards were announced, large-scale publicity was carried out. Many media even re-edited the ins and outs of the March Awards into text, and even posted them on the website with headlines.

In fact, there are some effects, and most of them are not negative enough. For example, as a Chinese international award, why are most of the first winners foreign scientists, and there is not even one Chinese.

In fact, Ning Wei has also thought about this question, but he has read the comprehensive scores in March, and he knows very well that there are young scientists in China who have entered the candidate list, but the March Award is an award for the world, whether it is the number of recommended votes or the approval in March It is true that the bonus points for each dimension assessment failed to enter the first echelon, which is also impossible.

Ning Wei has also deeply analyzed the reasons for this situation. It is not because of the low level of domestic scientific research in China, but mainly in the fields of mathematics, computer and physics. In terms of theoretical research, the comprehensive citation ranking bonus and recommendation bonus of some domestic papers are too low. of.In particular, the research on these theoretical innovations is indeed a little behind for the time being.

At the same time, it is also because there are too few awards for the March Awards. Last year, many leading scientific research fields in China did not set up awards for the time being, which led to this situation.

But these are not problems.

In the first year, the evaluation of the March Awards was based on stability. The purpose was to find a set of effective evaluation procedures that can be recognized by both the academic community and the public. Some routines are used to add various awards. Ning Wei's ultimate goal is to build the March Award into a world-wide comprehensive science and technology award, and include some comprehensive disciplines in the award evaluation to make up for the shortcomings of those century-old awards. In line with the development of modern science.

For example, special biomedical engineering awards, nanoscience awards, new materials awards, aerospace awards... In addition, the influence of the March Awards is gradually increased.

Therefore, at the request of Ning Wei, the entire March Foundation system chose to deal with the critical voices on Huaxia Network coldly.There is no need to explain anything, if you do well, you are good, and if you do not do well, you will catch up.

The progress of basic or theoretical studies generally does not immediately involve the field of application. It seems that the concept of quantum physics has been born in 1900, but it has been six to seventy years since it really started to enter the application stage.As for quantum chemistry, quantum dynamics, quantum information, quantum computers, and even the quantum Suichuan effect that began to affect semiconductor manufacturing, it is already a hundred years after quantum mechanics was proposed.

No problem anyway.

Cold processing naturally also means that there will not be too much heat.Basically, after a day of excitement, even Huaxia Network didn't have much discussion about the March Awards.Even the official website for the official announcement of the winners had a traffic increase of about 30.00% on the day of the announcement of the awards, but quickly dropped back to the usual level the next day.After all, a new award has little to do with people's daily life, not to mention that there are no Chinese scientists among them.

But Ning Weidao didn't care too much about it, and he never thought that he could become a big fat man with one bite.

In fact, compared to other newly established awards, this kind of attention is already a fantastic start.At least they are familiar all over the world. The actual situation is that in the field of scientific research, even the world scientific research awards recognized by the academic circles with decades of history are still very unfamiliar to most ordinary people, such as the Balse Award, Kraft Award...

The focus is actually still on the awards ceremony, which is why Ning Wei invited many bigwigs from the academic and technology circles to attend in advance.

At the awards ceremony, March will announce the dimensions and system of its awards to the world, which is very important.In addition to telling the academic community about the entire selection process and showing that the March Award will always be the fairest scientific research award, it is also to show the muscles of the strong artificial intelligence platform again.This is also to prepare for the first World Strong Artificial Intelligence Construction and Development Conference organized by the School of Artificial Intelligence under the Yanbei Mathematics Research Center.

Ningwei is turning his previous ideas into reality step by step.

Worldwide conferences and journals complement each other, especially in the computer field, conferences are often more important than journals.There is no doubt that the goal of the artificial intelligence conference organized by Ning Wei, who owns March, is to make it an annual world-class conference.

Ning Wei intends to announce the top conference held in October of that year at the March Awards Ceremony.After the awards ceremony, the official website of the conference will be launched simultaneously, and conference papers will be accepted.

Because this is the first conference, the preparation period is rather seven months. Because it is the first conference, it needs to have a celebrity effect so that children who are interested in artificial intelligence research are willing to submit papers to ensure that the quality of the conference is sufficient. High papers, once to determine the impact of the conference's relevant fields...

Every link is very important, so even if the table is turned, the awards ceremony must be held well.

Of course, judging from these links, it is actually not important whether the March Award has too much influence on the general population at this stage. When the international awards are on par.

But apparently some people don't see it that way.

……

Swiss time, on the evening of December 2025, 12, at the Stockholm City Hall, the annual Nobel Prize Ceremony Dinner will be held on time.

Someone once called the annual Nobel dinner the dinner of the strongest human brain, which is actually very reasonable.

After all, those who can be invited to the dinner are those who stand at the top of the pyramid in human society. Everyone wears grand evening gowns to witness the progress of human science.It is said that it is a dinner party, and it does provide dishes, but no one pays attention to what to eat.

This kind of occasion is actually more suitable for cute newbies to make friends with big bosses, and big bosses to make friends with bigger bosses.By the way, take a look at the demeanor of the winners, learn how the winners give their speeches, and imagine what they should say when they have this opportunity to speak on the stage.

Of course, this is really difficult. There are 70 billion people in the world, and less than ten people can win the Nobel Prize every year. This also includes the Nobel Peace Prize, which is so inexplicable that no one has figured out the logic of the selection...

Build a good relationship with the Nobel laureates. After all, every Nobel laureate automatically has the right to recommend candidates in their respective research fields.

This year's Nobel Prize Dinner is actually the same as in previous years, nothing special.

A grand dinner, high-quality guests, and the host began to read the contributions of the winners, and made one or two humorous jokes, which drew knowing smiles. In a joyful atmosphere, the winners appeared on stage and gave speeches.There is also a symphony band to add to the fun in the interval, so that people can enjoy the audio-visual feast brought by elegant art while admiring the heroic appearance of the winners.

But there are also differences.

The most different thing from the previous ones is probably that one of the five members of the Nobel Committee formed by the Royal Swiss Academy of Sciences, which is responsible for evaluating the Nobel Prize in Physics and Chemistry, is an academician of the Royal Swiss Academy of Sciences and a famous astrophysicist Neil When Stephen Coulston was interviewed by reporters, when he talked about the March Award, he popped out such a sentence.

"March Smart Award? Yes, I saw the news and the list of winners. But how to say, it is of course a good thing to win an award. There are more and more worldwide awards for scientists in this world. Even better. But who is to say that someone may miss out on a future Nobel Prize by accepting this March Prize?"

……

Naturally, this interview video was quickly spread on the Internet.

Even in order to highlight the identity of this boss, the media has tirelessly conducted a popular science on the Nobel Prize award system to the public again.

For example, there are a total of six evaluation committees for the Nobel Prize, and each committee is responsible for the evaluation of an award.

For example, the award committee changes every three years.

For example, this committee member Niels Coulston is in charge of the evaluation of the Nobel Prize in Physics for the first time this year.

As for why he said this sentence, not other members of the evaluation committee, it is probably because the only physics award that overlaps with the March Award and the Nobel Prize at present.Nobel has no mathematics prize and computer prize...

So when this video began to circulate on the Internet, the three physics professors, Mika Slampa, John Toifel and Shlomy Kotler, were probably affected immediately. .

It was inexplicably targeted by countless reporters.

……

Mika Slampa put down his phone in the apartment. He had just put it on filtering mode, but he still couldn't stop his friend's call.

And earlier, he had been harassed by several guys who claimed to be reporters. It is no exaggeration to say that he received more calls in just two hours than he usually receives in a month.

He also knew the cause and effect at this time.

Does winning the March Award mean giving up the qualifications for future Nobel Prizes?

Mika Slampa's first reaction when he heard this was that it was fake news, but when he saw the short video on Facebook, he was even more surprised...

Didn't this Mr. Coulston drink too much fake wine tonight?

After all, this statement is as ridiculous as if a mathematician won the Fields Medal, he cannot win the Wolf Medal.After all, all these scientific research awards should focus on their contributions to the academic world, not any awards they have won...

Most importantly, as a member of the Nobel Prize jury, even if you really have this idea, you should not say it directly.According to the review process of the Nobel Prize, if there is a little bit of unspoken rules in it, it is actually very difficult to be discovered. There is no need to shout it out loud, right?

Yes, Mika Slampa has been confused by this operation, and has no idea what this Niels Coulston means.Is this calling Huaxia from a distance, or is it embarrassing them?

More critically, the question is, speaking so bluntly does not seem to have any benefit to the credibility of the Nobel Prize, right?What a mess!

Of course, if this Mr. Coulston's purpose was to embarrass him, it did.

Regardless of how it will develop in the future, at least for now, the influence of the March Award is far less than that of the Nobel Prize.For example, in many well-known universities and research institutes, there will be special parking spaces for Nobel Prizes, but other award winners do not have this treatment.

But the problem is that for them, the March Award is an award they have already won, and whether they can win the Nobel Prize is still a big question mark.

Give up the March Award, just to fight for a chance to win the Nobel Prize in the future?What if I can't get it?

What if in the future not only the Nobel Prize will not be won, but the influence of the March Award will really exceed the Nobel Prize in a few decades?

Don't give up, what if your achievements can win the Nobel Prize in the future?What if the March Awards haven't been held for a few years, and they are still lonely after all?

MMP!

The good mood is gone in an instant...

Just then the phone rang again...

Mika Slampa was about to hang up, but when he saw the name on it, he connected the phone immediately.

The call was made by his partner, Johann Toifel. Although they work in different colleges and universities, they have maintained high-frequency communication on this project, and finally realized the entanglement phenomenon of macroscopic vibration drumheads. , so at this time the two can be said to have the same trouble.

In fact, if John Teuffel hadn't called him, Mika Slampa was about to call him too.

Unlike Shlomy Kotler, who achieved this phenomenon alone in different ways, since they are the result of cooperation, they should also be in the same step on whether to accept the award.

"John, have you also received the news?" Mika Slampa asked directly after answering the phone without any greetings.

"Yes, Mika, it's very funny. After receiving a call from Huaxia today, I didn't have too many blessings, but I just received a lot of concern." The opposite party responded with a wry smile.
