To this day, in China, under the long-term and unremitting publicity of the Yuanxin brand operation department and in market operations, the brand value of Yuanxin has been established.

But abroad, Yuanxin is still far from capable.

On the one hand, in a relatively mature market, users are relatively rational. On the other hand, Yuanxin is still not investing enough in overseas publicity, and overseas users do not have enough understanding of Yuanxin.

It is precisely based on this that Wang Rui recommended Carter, a North American native, to serve as Yuanxin's overseas vice president and actual person in charge after falling ill. After all, the North American market is now the largest market and is also the market that Yuanxin's consumer electronic products are mainly targeting.

But...this is still not enough.

If the product is sold well, the faith must not be lacking.

At a time when the Internet is not as developed as it is in the future, it is indeed a good step to start building a Yuanxin direct store in advance.

Therefore, after the National Day holiday, He Wei brought a complete set of plans to propose at the quarterly summary meeting, and won the recognition of all the attendees.

...

In mid-October, Chen Jing went to Siam to attend the groundbreaking ceremony of Tai'an Electronics in a low-key manner.

Su Yuanshan seized the time he had finally "idle", stayed in the laboratory for a few days, and deeply understood and mastered the progress of his laboratory team.

Then, a paper on "Methods for Preparing Graphene in Oxidation Reaction" with him as the corresponding author was delivered to nature through email.

The reason why Su Yuanshan was able to be the corresponding author is of course because he was the boss and two big shots in Nature. It is because he remembered that the method this wave of people looked familiar - in later generations, it was called the Hummers method.

Now that Hummers's technique was accidentally hit by a group of people in Yuanxin, I can only say that I have good luck.

...

Pandora's Laboratory.

"Who told you that it depends on luck?"

In Yuanxin, it is probably only Mr. Xi who can speak to Su Yuanshan in this tone.

"What's the point of luck when playing chemistry?" Su Yuanshan didn't mind at all, and lay happily on the sofa, and Ge You was almost paralyzed.

Generally speaking, as long as there is any good news in the laboratory, he will come to Mr. Xi to sit and chat.

Xi Xiaoding was amused and crying: "You guy, you don't know how much money they have wasted or how much consumables they consumed - oh yes, you really don't know."

"Uh... you are the boss of the laboratory, and everyone is under your control, of course you know it." Su Yuanshan laughed and stretched: "It's about to get off work, why don't you go out for a walk?"

Xi Xiaoding glanced at the alarm clock on the table, stood up and nodded: "Okay."

The two walked side by side in the shade of the Pandora's laboratory. It was already late autumn. These big trees that had been transplanted for four or five years were already extremely dense. In summer, they were a natural temperature-regulating air conditioner. But in autumn, it became a little cold.

Xi Xiaoding has never been very good physical condition - he was always pale at the beginning and was dragged to the hospital for examination by Su Yuanshan. The doctor said that he had nothing wrong with him, but his qi and blood deficiency.

The thing about Qi and Blood Deficiency is endless. So Su Yuanshan ordered the kitchen to prepare pigeon soup for Mr. Xi. After replenishing it in the past or two years, Mr. Xi finally made Mr. Xi look a little more beautiful.

Well, it is said that he will get married at the end of the year and then have children next year.

"By the way, IBM sent an email two days ago saying that we would invite us to talk. Have I told you?"

The two stopped in a pavilion. Xi Xiaoding saw a magazine on the stone table, put it on a stool and sat down, and asked Su Yuanshan.

"Huh? No, tell me." Su Yuanshan became interested when he heard this: "How did you make an appointment?"

"Their deep blues, in May this year, they won two wins, three draws and one loss - do you know if Gary Kasparov?"

Su Yuanshan lit his head like a chicken pecking rice: "I know, the chess champion, the magnificent man."

"Yes, it's this guy. After winning Kasparov, they debugged it again. It is said that they were crying and shouting that there was no opponent and were ready to retire and seal it."

Xi Xiaoding smiled: "Then, I didn't know where to find out about our Blue Star, so the group of people came to the door and asked our two supercomputers to compare."

"How to compare? Compare the computing speed?"

"Of course not...comparing logic, learning ability." Xi Xiaoding paused: "Simply put, we initialize it at the same time, then input data to see who has stronger machine learning ability, and then conduct a 1V1 duel based on the results - we probably have this plan, but IBM has not replied yet."

"The hardware has a great impact. We don't have professional chess supercomputers, so we may suffer a loss, right? And... how to compare? Compare through the Internet?"

Su Yuanshan asked, but his mind was full of how to use this game to enhance Yuanxin's influence.

You know, that's IBM!

Even if he is in a down-and-out position, he is still a blue giant, and he is written into the textbook.

In a sense, IBM is the representative of modern computer technology. If Yuanxin's supercomputer can defeat IBM...even if it cannot, as long as it draws, it will be a great honor.

As he thought about it, Su Yuanshan became a little hot, so he simply stood up and looked at Xi Xiaoding with a burning look: "Do you have a high chance of winning?"

Seeing this guy looking anxious, Xi Xiaoding knew what he was thinking, and shook his head with a chuckle: "Can you stop being so utilitarian?"

"I can't help but not utilitarian..."

"...Okay, we guess, the reason why IBM didn't reply instantly is that they know that their learning model is not as good as ours."

As he said that, Xi Xiaoding smiled conceitably: "We don't have time to study dedicated supercomputer processors, but the model is still fine. As long as the hardware conditions are the same, they... cannot do it."

Hearing this, Su Yuanshan laughed: "Not bad! If they accept the call, we will have a global live broadcast!"

"...Is it over?" Xi Xiaoding hesitated and said, "Where are you going to live broadcasting around the world?"

"Then do domestic live broadcasts! I'll go find a TV station!" Su Yuanshan clenched his fist hard, and a flash of his mind if Yuanxin won IBM's influence in AI.

——For Mr. Xi, this is really nothing to Pandora, and it may not even have much significance to Yuanxin.

The greater significance lies in defeating IBM's series of self-confidence.

You should know that the computer software engineering experimental class that Mr. Xi now has the flavor of the "Yao Class" of the T University in later generations and has been called the "Xi Class". In the electronics department, it is not only the class with the highest score, but also the one with the highest benefits of various resources.

If Mr. Xi’s team can defeat IBM, then the status of “Xi Ban” will be unbreakable and will become a golden business card for the Electronics Department.

In addition, Chinese people don’t know what learning models are or what AI is. They only need to know IBM, and only need to know that Yuanxin defeated IBM.

That's fine.

At least, it can make the knees of ordinary people slightly harder.

At this moment, Mr. Xi's cell phone rang. He took the phone and listened to a few words before spreading his hands at Su Yuanshan.

"Okay, as you wish, IBM's reply is here."

"How did you go?"

"It means that on June 1st of 2018, we will fight for the male and female."

At the end of October, Chen Jing walked around Southeast Asia and then returned to Yuanxin with Sun Xihui.

Her return also brought about the situation in Southeast Asian countries and regions - although the big storm gradually subsided, the aftermath of the storm did not end.

In these affected areas, the more prosperous the surface, the greater the impact it will be.

Especially in Java and the Philippines, the financial storm seemed to have become a physical storm, and the entire country quickly declined at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the past, those industrial areas where people were crowded with people and cars came and went have now become deserted and extremely declining. There is no longer the traffic on the streets, and even there are much less cars.

Especially the capital of the Philippines, Greater Manila, an international metropolis known as "New York of the East" in the 1960s - yes, the Philippines was once the second largest economy in Asia, second only to Niguo - although it continued to decline in the past, it was still able to maintain a certain degree of decency before the financial crisis.

But after this financial crisis, countless slum tin shanty houses seemed to emerge overnight. Homeless homeless vagabonds and beggars could be seen everywhere on the streets.

At the same time, HK finally ushered in the first wave of international hot money offensives.

...

"It's very simple, this time it's just a test."

In Su Yuanshan's office, Chen Jing, Sun Xihui, and Yang Weichang, the chairman of Liantong who had just arrived, sat around the coffee table and drank tea leisurely.

Although it was Su Yuanshan's office, he had always been lazy, so he had to aggrieved the local owner Chen Jing and was responsible for serving tea and water.

A week ago, international hot money began to attack HK in a "decisive" trend, and largely shorted Hong Kong stocks and foreign exchange markets.

In order to maintain the linked exchange rate system, the HK Financial Management Bureau saw that the situation was wrong and directly sold the US dollar to absorb the Hong Kong dollar in the market to avoid the depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar.

At the same time, the HKMA also raised interest rates directly as Su Yuanshan expected, and the most preferential interest rate increased from 8.75% to 9.5%.

The overnight interest rate rate has been even more crazy, from 9% to 300%.

Such a result will certainly have a great effect on short selling of Hong Kong dollars.

However... although the short selling of the Hong Kong dollar stopped, the tightening caused by interest rate hikes has led to pressure on the stock market.

In just one week, the Hang Seng Index fell by 10,000 points from 13,000 points, down 3,343.2 points, a drop of 27%.

The cumulative loss of Hong Kong stock market value exceeds HK$700 billion.

"Test?" Yang Weichang raised his eyebrows: "Are such a big battle still just a test?"

"Of course." Su Yuanshan smiled slightly: "HK has enough foreign exchange reserves, and international hot money is just a fake shot and test the policy so that it can make a comeback."

"What about the real goal?"

Su Yuanshan squinted his eyes and looked towards the northeast.

"Naturally a good country."
