The End of Technology

Lu Yan was happily scrolling through Weibo. In fact, she had been fighting on other platforms for a long time before posting on Weibo.

Today is indeed an exciting moment. Vegetarianism has finally been renamed, and we finally have fighting material!

She really didn't understand.

There are obviously so many papers proving that eating less meat is healthy. Even if you don’t read those papers, aren’t there so many diseases and so many people suffering from the three highs that are caused by eating big fish and meat? Moreover, foreign scientists have said that as long as Chinese people eat less meat, greenhouse gas emissions can even be reduced.

In the past, when she used to quote classics to persuade people to be more vegetarian and eat less meat, she didn't have much to quote, and she was often scoffed at. For example, why do foreigners not be so strict with themselves but insist on controlling Chinese people?

Lu Yan actually wants to tell these netizens that not everyone can master knowledge.

There are also knowledgeable people in foreign countries who are also loudly calling for their own people not to eat meat and only eat vegetarian food.

Moreover, so many local Chinese celebrities have come out to call on everyone to eat less meat. Doesn’t it mean that this is indeed reasonable?

But her rhetoric often fails in the statistical charts posted by netizens who like to be more serious. She just doesn't understand. Don't these netizens think it's normal for so many people in foreign countries to always have low IQs and not listen to advice?

Developed countries have high meat consumption, but it is an indisputable fact that there are many fat people abroad!

In Lu Yan's view, these netizens are trapped in a standard information cocoon. They only believe in what they believe in, but turn a blind eye to this real science.

What made her even more angry was that whenever those people couldn't compete, they would make some incomprehensible remarks.

For example, I paid for today’s reflection…

What does this all mean?

Isn't reflection a virtue?

1.4 billion Chinese people, if each person eats a pound of meat every day, they will consume 1.4 billion pounds of meat. How much food will be wasted?

You should have learned in junior high school that the meat in animals is indirectly obtained from plants. And in this process, there will inevitably be losses, which will naturally increase air pollution and make the world less healthy. What would happen if everyone eats less meat? !

Really, there are many times when Lu Yan is so angry that she almost collapses due to these netizens.

But today is different.

So many big names in the tech world are finally speaking out collectively.

Although Lu Yan was not familiar with any of these people before today, she had never heard of many of them. After all, she had never cared about technology topics. Although she also uses a computer, she does not need to care who produces the computer, or even what accessories the computer is made of.

It's like although she likes to eat apples, she doesn't need to care who grew them.

However, she still spent the whole morning identifying all the more than fifty big guys who had spoken out publicly.

So happy, as expected these are all big shots.

Samsung, Google, Intel, Nvidia, IBM, AMD... there are many company names she has never heard of, but through Baidu she can learn that they are also high-tech companies in the world's top 500, such as Hynix, Texas Instruments, Qualcomm ,etc.

It is difficult to describe the joyful feeling after a person's faith is finally affirmed, and it is affirmed by a group of important people.

She has started posting links on every platform she can think of to those who once had a tough fight with her, just to let these people see what those knowledgeable people think about vegetarianism. of.

If this can't wake up those people who are pretending to be asleep, then Lu Yan will despair of this country!

…

Just when Lu Yan felt that the world was finally beginning to move on the right track and began to develop towards her cognition, the phone placed on the table vibrated twice. When she picked it up, she saw that someone on Donghu had sent her a private message.

Lu Yan opened her phone happily.

She wanted to see what other reasons those idiots on the street could find to refute her.

This time, they can't say why Westerners only call on Chinese people to become vegetarians, because they have a lot of fish and meat, right?

Soon, the content of the private message sent by the other person was displayed in front of her.

"Don't have an intracranial orgasm. I have said it many times, look at the problem comprehensively. Take a closer look at today's news. Do you guess why the people speaking out today are all the big guys of the World Semiconductor Alliance? And there are fifty-three companies in the alliance. , the chairman, president, and CEO of each company are all absent. But none of the company bosses in the west who have not joined the alliance have spoken out?"

Lu Yan knew that online name—Second General. A master who is active in understanding breathing.

Just to compete with her, I once changed my introduction to "A young man who loves animals because they are so delicious."

That alone shows how boring this guy is.

Lu Yan originally didn't want to pay attention to this gangster, but what this guy said made him a little curious.

I couldn't help but replied quickly: "What? What do you have to say?"

The person on the other end didn't reply. He just swiped the link on the website, followed by a row of smiling faces.

Lu Yan subconsciously clicked in, and soon a black title appeared in front of her eyes: "The bosses of the World Semiconductor Alliance collectively shouted out that the people of all countries should eat less meat. The truth has finally been found. I laughed so hard!"

Seeing this title, Lu Yan felt disgusted.

Look, this is the era of self-media. Just write an article and fool a large group of people. These people are always like this. They never have the ability to think independently and only want to believe what they want to believe.

Obviously this article is of the eye-catching type. Probably only a single-minded person like the Second General would believe this kind of article, right?

Although she was disgusted with the crookedness, Lu Yan still read down the text with the attitude of criticizing it one by one only after reading it.

"I believe that everyone has seen the earthquake-like news in the semiconductor industry today, and the logic of the capital market has been subverted. What exactly happened, let us take a look at the timeline of all major events in the semiconductor industry in the past two days to expose the truth. Don’t worry, everyone, this article is 3800 words long and it only takes three minutes to read.

First of all, news came out yesterday that the Yanbei University Chip R\u0026D Center has developed a chip with a new technological development route, but no one came forward to confirm it. Until the video of Ning Zi's speech spread on the Internet, and this morning Huaqing's official Weibo confirmed the news.

Someone has died. The news has not yet begun to ferment, and the entire Internet has been flooded with promotional videos from the famous CEOs of World Semiconductor. These people suddenly made a collective public statement calling on citizens to eat less meat and more vegetables. This directly caused a group of people to be dumbfounded. What is going on? Don't worry, something interesting will happen next..."

Lu Yan watched it closely, because the following story really looked like a fabrication.

Are these companies coming to China to show their goodwill? Crazy discount?

The author probably doesn’t understand that there is such a thing as jet lag in this world, right?

It's midnight in the United States now, and who doesn't know that Western high-tech companies have the best treatment? And the article also said that many companies in the World Semiconductor Alliance are Silicon Valley companies, and the treatment of high-tech companies in Silicon Valley is better. How can they make decisions in the middle of the night?

To put it bluntly, even employees in high-tech companies have to work overtime. Can't all the big bosses work overtime?

You must know that the decisions implemented in China are definitely not something ordinary employees can make. This is a major policy shift, and there are so many preferential policies.

Isn't this nonsense?

Although Lu Yan is not a senior member of the company, her direct leader in the company, the director, cannot participate in the company's decision-making meetings, but Lu Yan knows that.

So it is obvious that this article is fake news concocted by self-media.

Haha... the presidents and CEOs of many high-tech companies have released videos one after another, just because China has developed a new chip?

A bunch of boring men just like to study this kind of dream.

Wait, when Lu Yan scanned to the end of the article, she suddenly discovered that the author had intercepted an American interview program, which was broadcast by Forbes News Channel five hours ago.

Lu Yan subconsciously clicked on it. The video showed a host and a man with a big belly. The man being interviewed was wearing a well-fitting light-colored suit with dark stripes, and his plump face had a very vivid expression.

For American programs, the language is naturally pure English dialogue, but subtitles have been thoughtfully provided. Of course, for Lu Yan, she does not need these. Lu Yan is very confident in her English proficiency. This is one of the reasons why Lu Yan has always believed that she has the ability to think independently.

Host: "...We all wonder why these usually aloof bosses are suddenly interested in ordinary people's dining tables. This even started a carnival on the Internet. It was so sudden, as if there was a mysterious force Power suddenly dominated the minds of those Silicon Valley big shots. Yes, a netizen named Runway Darling made such a conjecture on the Internet. They were collectively brainwashed by aliens. This conjecture was also liked 13,000 times. "

When the host finished speaking, the video cut out a screenshot from the Internet, which proved everything the host just said.

"The good news is that we are fortunate to have Nissen Mountbatten, the Pope of the Illuminati from Texas. He happens to know why these big figures who control the development trend of the world's semiconductors suddenly go crazy. Pay attention to whether we have meat for lunch today. Really? Mr. Mountbatten."

The pot-bellied man shrugged, then raised his hand and waved it forcefully, and said in a passionate voice: "Of course, Luo Rui, in fact, I know this matter best. And you will never guess it. The fact is that they have to agree to this condition in order to get two chips. As for what kind of chips have such magic power, oh, my God, didn’t you pay attention to the news from China today?”

"So, you're talking about this news?"

The screen switched again, this time to a video of a young man giving a report on stage.

This video is obviously from China, because it is in Chinese and has English subtitles below.

"Yes, that's the news. In the mysterious and distant eastern country, under the guidance of the gods, they invented a new chip. In order to get two chips, those high-ranking big shots are willing to do anything... Oh , you ask me why I know this? Of course it’s because this requirement is..."

Seeing this, Lu Yan turned off the video directly.

God...

What did she just see?

Sure enough it had to be Fox, what kind of guest did they invite?

Will you ask for anything just for two chips?

Lu Yan subconsciously began to search for relevant information on the Internet. In fact, there was no need to search, it was directly on the hot list.

Then she saw Huaqing’s official Weibo, saw countless comments, and saw a bunch of news about the policy change of the World Semiconductor Alliance...

Before she could recover, her phone started vibrating again.

In the private message of Donghu, the second general sent her a message again: "Have you finished reading? Keep going? Do you need reflection coupons? I just have some here, how about I pay for your reflection today?"

Lu Yan exploded instantly...

"Putting aside the facts, is what they said wrong?"

"Why don't you say that aside from the facts, you might not be human?"

"Oh, from a human perspective, have you ever considered the feelings of animals?"

"It's so hard for me to become a human being, why should I consider animals? You feel the same way, are you an animal?"

"Gangjing!"

"Haha, by the way, I also think the little rabbit is very cute, so I plan to buy half of one at noon today. How about you buy the other half and release it?"

Lu Yan finally couldn't stand it any more, so she directly blacklisted this person who had no ability to think independently.

When she looked at the computer again, there was light in her eyes.

Fake news, all fake news, she must prove it.

…

Duan Fei also felt that all this was false news.

Many people think that when a person feels guilty about another person, they often hope that the other person will get over it for the better, so as to alleviate their own guilt, but the truth is often the opposite.

In fact, if there is anyone in the world who wants Ning Zi to fall into trouble most, apart from Ning Zi's random things that lead to bankruptcy, and those Western technology giants, it is probably this Huaqing female student. .

Duan Fei felt that she was kind. At least she didn't expect Ning Zi to die quickly. She just simply hoped that Ning Zi would be ruined and stop becoming a stumbling block in her life.

It was obviously just a small misunderstanding, and she was even willing to apologize in person, but the person on the other side refused to accept it.

Now, her hope of taking the postgraduate entrance examination at this school has been almost cut off.

Some time ago, when Ning Zi was criticized by countless people on the Internet, she was definitely one of the most excited people, so she expressed a lot of opinions anonymously online. How she hoped that Ning Zi could fall off the altar, so that there wouldn't be so many obstacles in her future life.

But the ten mathematics papers that Ning Zi suddenly published some time ago gave her a head-on blow.

After spending three full years in Huaqing, she certainly knew what it meant to publish ten papers at once.

Although she couldn't understand those papers, she could understand the comments of those mathematicians. No matter whether the papers were correct or not, the problems they solved were definitely at the level of top journals.

Top ten articles...

This time Duan Fei felt desperate.

She had never heard of any mathematician publishing a paper like this. She anonymously complained about Ning Zi's paper fraud, but nothing happened. After all, she really couldn't produce any evidence. Even after spending three days searching various literature, she couldn't find anything similar online. paper.

In the end Duan Fei had no choice but to give up. She couldn't find any evidence of academic misconduct by Ning Zi. There might be some, but it was obviously not something she could question at her level.

What she never expected was that she no longer cared about it and had even decided to accept her fate and not think about it, but Ning Zi actually mentioned the incident more than a year ago at the report meeting.

How could he do this? !

Although Ning Zi didn't mention her name and only mentioned it with "well-known reasons", this was obviously a slap in her face. She simply couldn't imagine that a man could be so narrow-minded. You still can’t let it go after a year?

Really, Duan Fei's lungs almost exploded when she saw Ning Zi reading the report in a calm tone on the Internet. My body was shaking unconsciously, and I even felt that half of my body was starting to go numb... I was really shaking with breath and coldness!

So there is no possibility of rational communication in this world, right? !

So this era is still the same as feudal society, right? !

So in this society, whoever is stronger has the right, right? !

Then the phone rang: "Duan Fei, come to my office this afternoon."

…

Ning Zi has returned to school and sent Lu Xiaoya home first. It is self-study time in the afternoon, and she still has to go to the last exam tomorrow. Then, at the urging of Dominic Duncan, he returned to Ningyuan.

Although she didn't understand why, Ning Zi could feel that when Dominette Duncan called, her tone was not very good, even a little angry.

Ning Zi still respects this international friend who has decided to devote his future to the development of Chinese mathematics. After all, there are some things that he should do as he grew up in this land, but Dominic Duncan actually has no such obligations.

Returning to Ningyuan, I saw Dominette Duncan walking on the covered bridge in the yard when I entered the door. But obviously the Fields Medal winner in mathematics was not paying attention to the scenery in the yard, because he also I saw Ning Zi walking into the yard for the first time.

"Ning, I need an explanation. What does this mean?"

Sure enough, Dominette Duncan was indeed very angry. He walked towards Ning Ju's direction vigorously, waving a mobile phone in his hand.

But before he could reach Ning Zi, two people quickly rushed in from behind the courtyard door, guarding Ning Zi from both sides.

This was something Ning Zi never expected.

How should I put it? The sudden appearance of two big and thick men not only suppressed Dominette Duncan's momentum, but Ning Zi also felt that it was a bit too much.

He knew that there was always someone around to protect him, but this reaction was obviously a bit too extreme.

Let's put it this way, if Dominette Duncan really had any bad thoughts, he would have given a warning in March.

But then again, some sudden behaviors of human beings are indeed not controlled by artificial intelligence, but Ning Zi really can’t imagine how crazy Dominic Duncan must be to want to harm him, so he can only help He explained: "It's okay. Professor Duncan just expresses his emotions in a different way from us. He is a little excited. You don't have to be so nervous."

Well, it seems that the treatment for making chips is indeed different.

This made Ning Zi suddenly miss Zhai Qiuxian. With a professional by her side, there would probably be no such misunderstanding.

"I'm sorry, Professor Ning, this is our job. Professor Duncan, please control your emotions. Your behavior just now did seem very aggressive. Can we check your mobile phone?"

Under the serious look from the other side, Dominette Duncan subconsciously handed over the phone. It was really subconscious. When he realized that he was still angry and wanted to get angry, the person had already returned the phone to him. And he apologized in a good manner: "I'm sorry, Professor Duncan, I'm offended."

Then he quickly retreated behind Ning Zi.

"I……"

"Ahem, Dominic, what's wrong with you today? Doesn't this look like your temper?" Ning Zi asked.

"Read this article for yourself." After re-adjusting the phone, Dominette Duncan thrust the phone into Ning Zi's hand with a look of grief and anger.

Ning Zi started reading suspiciously.

Well, this article...is a proper March narrative style.

The story is compact and detailed, and various psychological activities are described in extremely fine detail, but the wording is also extremely rigorous.

It tells the story it invented about Ning Zi’s growth experience. A great young man who was determined to dedicate his life to engineering, suffered unfair treatment, and after painful experience, he had no choice but to switch to mathematics first.

Ning Zi quickly browsed the entire story without expression, and her mood was also complicated.

He was surprised that March would actually produce this article. After all, I have said hello before, and there must be a relatively reasonable explanation for the chip. It’s also time to put something on the back of the force behind the March Forum.

But Ning Zi couldn't figure out how even Dominette Duncan had seen this kind of article published in March. She couldn't quite figure it out. It was just an article. Why did this guy seem to be more worried than knowing that he couldn't leave China for many years? And angry.

"Well, you're angry about this article?"

"Of course, Ning Zi, it says that what you are best at and most want to study is not mathematics or theory, but making tangible results! Your hard work in theory is just to have the opportunity to do experiments and advance technology. Development...is this human talk? How can you say that?"

After hearing this, Ning Zi suddenly realized that Dominette Duncan was the first to guess the truth.

The whole article is really not human, not a single sentence.

"The author of this article is not me, so these words are not from me." Ning Zi explained.

"I know it's not you, but if you didn't dictate it, how could the author know so many things, even your thoughts when writing the paper." Dominette Duncan asked rhetorically.

"In fact, there is a creative mode that is to sit there and speculate on other people's ideas..."

"Oh? Then look me in the eyes and tell me that mathematics is your belief! In fact, you have devoted your body and mind to mathematics, and you have achieved these achievements!"

Ning Zi took a deep breath and looked into Dominette Duncan's eyes...

"Dominette, I got...married this morning."

The author of this book is stupid! I scolded you for you, so please stop scolding me! Thanks!
