Chapter 43 Bottom Line

The control room of Zhao Shanhe’s house is in the innermost part of the large living room and you can see it as soon as you enter the door.

Side by side with the control room is the printing room, with ten printers connected to the computer, and different documents are printed separately.

The two rooms are connected, with only a glass door in the middle.

Due to the limited printing speed, the printing here continues.

Lucy's copy program has a very high level of intelligence, and the work here is not a burden for it.

It only requires one percent of the program to control everything here.

When everyone came in, they must have seen the monitors in the control room, up and down, front, back and forth, back and forth, each monitor has different functions.

Then, people's eyes were attracted by the automatically working printer set.

The supercomputer's working group can theoretically be unlimitedly disassembled. As long as the output hardware can be matched with a set of output devices and output instructions, a separate working group can be established.

Now, Zhao Shanhe has set up ten sets of output instructions.

Each set of output commands controls a printer, and can work independently without manpower at all, and print complete sets of technical information.

Looking at a printer alone is nothing, but ten printers work together and there is no one in the room. This scene is a bit weird and full of a post-industrial industrial beauty.

If it were yesterday, Zhao Shanhe would have let Lucy show up and teach everyone a lesson, but now there is no need.

Because if artificial intelligence is taken out, it will definitely be the biggest black technology of this era.

Moreover, before the Internet age comes, there will be social panic.

Before the new century, people had always yearned for and feared computer technology, and they had been moving forward over and over again.

What I yearn for is the convenience brought by computer technology, and what I fear is the impact of computer development to a certain extent and its dominance on humanity.

In fact, this is a worry-free situation, and perhaps not a worry-free situation, but at least in Zhao Shanhe's generation, it is impossible to see the scene where the robot controls humans in the Terminator plot.

The people were waiting for a long time and staring at the printer that was working constantly before recovering.

Wei Dewei is an amateur, and he also made some psychological predictions about the scenes in Zhao Shanhe's secret room, so he recovered the fastest.

"Mr. Zhao, this scene is so futuristic. I want to ask, are these printers controlled by computers?"

Zhao Shanhe nodded and said, "In fact, it's very simple. You just need to enter the program to print in the computer and place enough paper on the printer to see the predetermined technical program being printed."

"Are these technologies your invention?"

Zhao Shanhe asked without answering, "Who else can be there except me?"

Rabitz asked: "Mr. Zhao, how long will it take to become popular in your imagination for automated office work?"

This is a common sense issue that does not involve professional technology and also represents the voice of most people.

Zhao Shanhe smiled and said, "This depends on the development of hardware technology. Now that monolithic computers have just been developed, the development of personal computer technology will affect the popularization of the entire industry. According to my prediction, it can be popularized within five years."

Rabitz pondered. His perspective on the problem was different from that of technical experts. Zhao Shanhe mentioned hardware technology and personal computers, but this was not just a casual statement.

In his heart, he actually didn't care about Wei Dewei. As a reborn person, he had a sense of superiority from the heart in front of anyone.

What he fears now is the system and rules, because these are forces that one cannot fight against.

As for someone, he can completely let the other party disappear from a physical level.

Because of this kind of down-looking mentality and the assistance of biological computers, he didn't have to bother thinking about it or guessing everyone's thoughts. Anyway, it would be better if the soldiers came to block the water and soil, and he would not make mistakes.

"Evan, there are only four of us here now. Sir Zhong is an outstanding Hong Kong government official who has been witnessing your development. In the future development, the Hong Kong government is willing to continue to achieve mutual achievements with you. Therefore, although we have some differences in details, we are consistent in the general direction."

This kind of words sounds very comfortable, but meaningless.

Zhao Shanhe smiled and said, "Indeed, in my plan for the future, Xiangjiang is also a very important foundation. I will never deny the importance of the Hong Kong government. Any company that wants to develop into a multinational group must pay attention to the fundamentals, otherwise it will become a rootless piaoping.

However, due to the limitations of terrain, the lack of basic workers, it is unrealistic to develop manufacturing. Therefore, I did not plan to use Hong Kong Island as a production base from the beginning…”

"Then how do you position Hong Kong Island?"

"Group headquarters, scientific research base."

The scientific research base is actually a fool. Now Xiangjiang does not even have a University of Science and Technology. It can train lawyers and accountants here, but it lacks the knowledge system training of science and engineering.

Hong Kong Island is called a cultural desert, but it is not only literally, but also because it is always just a springboard.

In a colony, people have extremely impetuous mentality and have no soil for scientific research.

Wei Dewei's eyes lit up and he asked with a smile: "Scientific Research Base?"

Zhao Shanhe smiled and said, "Yes, my research was all my own research. Now I have applied for 150 patents. On this basis, there are thousands of research directions. These require more people to work with me to establish industry advantages and barriers."

Zhao Shanhe was so "open and honest" that they were stunned. Wei Dewei laughed and deliberately pretended to be light and said, "Industry barrier?"

Zhao Shanhe took two steps forward, stood shoulder to shoulder with him on the platform at the end of the swimming pool, holding the railing and saying, "I have always been very clear about what the Hong Kong government wants to keep. I can promise that part of the research room is in Hong Kong, but how the Hong Kong government provides policy support and protection for my company is in a difficult situation.

I am very clear that the colonial government cannot have too much autonomy. London will definitely have more transfers of interests in my invention. The government will face huge pressure, and I will also face more suppression if I put the research base on Hong Kong Island.

So, since I have to face so much injustice, why can’t I save trouble and directly turn my rights and interests to a powerful government that can protect my company?”

Wei Dewei was not good at expressing his opinion at this time, and Rabitz said for him: "But Mr. Zhao also needs to consider the international environment. Today, in the electronic technology and computer industry, Western Huijie is still leading and mainstream.

Whether it is hardware production or industry standards, it is still dominated by the Western world. Although it can be protected by turning technology to the mainland, it is also extinguished from the mainstream of the industry.

In the future, whether it is cooperation, production, sales, or market, you will extinguish your company. Sacrifice part of your interests, you can exchange for technology sharing, market sharing, and equity sharing."

Zhao Shanhe smiled and looked at Rabitz and said, "But, who will protect my rights and interests from being damaged by what you call sharing?"

The colonial government is not an enterprise that cannot protect Zhao Shanhe, nor is it a technology that cannot protect Zhao Shanhe.

However, the unequal cooperative status will lead to Zhao Shanhe being able to passively accept the other party's conditions.

Just like Zhao Shanhe's many patents nowadays, they originally needed the other party to provide a hundred monopoly patents to authorize each other, but if they really wanted to negotiate, maybe the other party would come up with ten patents and want to negotiate with Zhao Shanhe.

If the negotiation fails, it is possible to use the outside world to deal with him.

At this time, I can't count on the Hong Kong government to protect him.

The most important thing for a technology company is technology, which is completely different from other types of companies.

Rabitz was speechless. No one here was foolish. Everyone knew what the other party needed and what they were worried about.

If Zhao Shanhe doesn't make a fuss, he will really leave all the technology in a company registered in Hong Kong Island, and the possibility of being swallowed raw in the future is close to 100%.

Wei Dewei pondered for a while, but still did not dare to make any promises, but he also knew that Zhao Shanhe could never be allowed to transfer his rights to a company that did not belong to Hong Kong Island.

In this matter, Zhao Shanhe currently has the initiative.

He could only ask vaguely: "So, how is Mr. Zhao going to adjust the contradiction between this?"

Zhao Shanhe also needs the Hong Kong government as a bargaining chip to negotiate with the mainland. He cannot directly authorize his rights to mainland companies. The mainland in the 1980s was not the mainland twenty years later.

Nowadays, there is not even a patent law or a labor law. Putting the chips completely at one end may also become a token of a child’s downtown city.

Moreover, in this way, it will be more troublesome to negotiate with other companies to authorize patents.

So, Zhao Shanhe just responded with a smile. "I only hope that all cooperation is based on equal cooperation, which is the main condition of all cooperation."

Wei Dewei nodded, understood Zhao Shanhe's intentions, and also knew that Zhao Shanhe was not easy to fool.

Rabitz continued to tentatively at this time: "Mr. Zhao, the current industry standards are almost all established in the Western world. You now rely on these patents to show unparalleled talent. Now, you have the opportunity to directly participate in the formulation of industry standards, but it is too deeply involved with the mainland, which will affect your business plan layout."

What this means is that if you don’t show your attitude now, don’t blame me for not cooperating with you then.

Of course, he is not a stakeholder, so he is more conservative, with only a slight threat component that will not make people disgusted.

Zhao Shanhe smiled and said, "All standards are just inevitable products of the industry's development to a certain level. The only thing that can affect this result is the power of subversion. The patents I applied for now have the power to change the world. Anyone or any company who wants to rule out me will encounter the possibility of losing control."
