Shen Heping didn't want to talk about supercomputers at all today.
Because that wasn't his main research direction, he couldn't talk about anything very advanced. As for the basic things like Guo Qian and Li Yufu, Professor Shen disdained to talk about it.
Although the scope of today's exchange meeting was very small, the level of the people participating was very high.
Academician Wang Chi was his direct boss and a big name in the domestic computer field. Guo Qian and Li Yufu were also well-known figures in the field.
Shen Heping naturally wanted to show his face at this exchange meeting, not just to freeload at the Taoyuan Club.
Therefore, he prepared the content he was most proud of.
Especially when he saw Song Wei present today, it was an unexpected surprise for Shen Heping. This also strengthened his intention to talk about the original content today — it was simply appropriate to talk about this in front of Song Wei.
Shen Heping even thought that this was God's arrangement.
He walked confidently to the podium and turned on his laptop.
The staff came over and connected the HDMI cable reserved on the podium to Shen Heping's laptop. Then, he wanted to help Shen Heping set up the computer and output the computer content to the projector.
However, Shen Heping waved his hand and said, "No projecting for the time being. If necessary, I'll do it myself."
The shortcut key for switching was not a complicated operation. Most people who often used computer projectors would understand it. When the staff member saw that the expert had such a request, he would naturally satisfy it. He nodded, then bowed slightly and retreated to the side.
Shen Heping opened the powerpoint on his computer, but because the projector was not turned on, no one could see the content of the powerpoint.
Shen Heping operated his computer for a while, then straightened up. With a confident smile on his face, he said, "What I want to talk to you about today is the cutting-edge field of computer science, which is also my recent research field …"
When Shen Heping said this, Wang Chi, who was sitting below, couldn't help but frown slightly. He was the leader of the Computer Institute of Beijing University. He was naturally very clear about the research direction of the researchers, professors, and associate professors. Although Shen Heping only said a simple opening remark, Wang Chi had already guessed what Shen Heping was going to say.
Wang Chi naturally knew that the content of Shen Heping's speech had nothing to do with the topic of today's exchange. He faintly felt that it was somewhat inappropriate.
However, as a leader, he still had to consider the face of his subordinates.
Shen Heping was a proud and arrogant young associate professor who had just returned from overseas. Therefore, Wang Chi didn't plan on reminding Shen Heping.
What's more, there were all kinds of academic conferences and academic forums both at home and abroad. Everyone's keynote speeches might not really fit the theme. Under normal circumstances, the organizers would not have any complaints.
After all, academics were still interconnected, especially the branches under the same major field. Even if the two branches were unrelated, they might be able to inspire and learn from each other.
Because of this, Wang Chi did not interrupt Shen Heping.
As for Xia Ruofei and Chen Xuan, they didn't know what Shen Heping wanted to say at this time, but they were interested and wanted to hear Shen Heping's opinion.
Although Xia Ruofei could feel Shen Heping's obvious hostility before the exchange began, he did not underestimate Shen Heping's academic ability because of this.
In the field of computer science, many middle-aged and young experts had achieved very high achievements. This was a young industry. Shen Heping carried the golden signboard of a famous overseas university, so he should have some real skills.
What's more, Xia Ruofei also believed in Zhao Yongjun's discretion. If Shen Heping was really an ignorant person, Zhao Yongjun would definitely not let him participate in the exchange. Even Wang Chi's face was not enough.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei was still listening very carefully to Shen Heping's speech at this time.
Shen Heping glanced at Xia Ruofei and Chen Xuan who were serious like primary school students. He had a strong sense of achievement in his heart for no reason. He couldn't help but look at Song Wei next to Xia Ruofei.
To his disappointment, Song Wei did not look at the podium. Instead, she sat upright and stared at a potted plant on the conference table. Obviously, she was not listening to his speech at all.
Originally, Song Wei didn't understand this professional stuff. Today, she was here to accompany Xia Ruofei. Moreover, the speaker was Shen Heping, whom she loathed. Naturally, she didn't even want to maintain her superficial politeness and directly let her mind wander.
Shen Heping was not discouraged. He firmly believed that the content of his speech would definitely attract Song Wei's attention and might even win her heart!
Anyway, in the past few years, Shen Heping had always maintained this kind of self-confidence.
Shen Heping continued, "Today, I want to talk to you about some results we have achieved in the field of artificial intelligence, or some breakthroughs! Today, the title of my speech is — "Beijing University Computer Science Research Team's Research Progress on Artificial Intelligence Xiao Wei and Several Innovative Thoughts in the Field of Artificial Intelligence". "
As soon as Shen Heping said this, the two professors, Li Yufu and Guo Qian, turned their heads and looked at each other. However, they did not say anything and chose to watch the show silently.
Wang Chi's eyelids drooped as he wrote and drew in his notebook. He did not intend to say anything.
Xia Ruofei and Chen Xuan frowned slightly at the same time. Of course, they did not question because of a title.
However, when Song Wei heard the title of the speech, her face suddenly sank. She raised her head and stared at Shen Heping.
Obviously, Shen Heping's research team did not name this artificial intelligence "Xiao Wei" casually. This also made Song Wei very uncomfortable.
When Shen Heping spoke, he kept looking at Song Wei.
When Song Wei looked at him angrily, he immediately showed a smile that he thought was very charming. Then, he pressed the shortcut key and the content of the computer screen was output to the projector.
Everyone immediately saw the content of Shen Heping's computer on the projection screen.
The PowerPoint on this page was obviously a big title. Then, there was a girl's cartoon image at the bottom left. This should be the cartoon image of the artificial intelligence Xiao Wei.
This was also a normal operation. As long as there was artificial intelligence research, regardless of whether it really had a certain level of intelligence or the commonly seen "artificial retard", most of them would have an anthropomorphic image, and most of them would be female. After all, females were naturally more approachable.
However, even Wang Chi could not help but frown slightly at this cartoon image. Chen Xuan and Xia Ruofei showed a trace of displeasure on their faces.
Song Wei's face was as cold as water. He looked at Shen Heping with disgust.
The reason was very simple. This cartoon image was too similar to Song Wei.
The style of dress, hairstyle, and appearance were at least 80% similar to Song Wei.
"Associate Professor Shen, isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Chen Xuan could not help but frown and ask.
Chen Xuan really regarded Xia Ruofei as his good friend. Song Wei was Xia Ruofei's cultivation partner. This Shen Heping used Song Wei's image to make an artificial intelligence and "train" it every day. If this happened in the cultivation world, they would have drawn their swords. How could they tolerate this?
Shen Heping had an innocent expression on his face. He shrugged and asked, "Sir, what do you mean by this? I am now sharing my research results. If you have any questions, wait until I finish speaking. Don't interrupt me. This is the most basic etiquette. Don't you understand? "
In Shen Heping's eyes, Xia Ruofei still had some weight. After all, at least Xia Ruofei was richer than him! However, it was only a little. The weight was very limited.
As for Chen Xuan, Shen Heping did not take him seriously at all.
He had never heard of such a person in the academic world. Moreover, he had been following Xia Ruofei all the time today. Obviously, he was just a follower.
Therefore, when Shen Heping spoke to Chen Xuan, he was naturally not polite at all. In fact, he was even a little overbearing.
If the people in the cultivation world knew that the dignified Young Master of the Tianyi Palace was regarded as someone's follower by an ordinary person, they would definitely laugh their heads off.
Xia Ruofei stopped Chen Xuan with his eyes and said calmly, "Associate Professor Shen, today we are talking about the application of supercomputers. The artificial intelligence you want to talk about has nothing to do with today's topic."
"Boss Xia, you definitely know more about business than I do, but in terms of scientific research …" Shen Heping said casually, "Some things should be done by professionals. How do you know that artificial intelligence has nothing to do with supercomputers?"
Shen Heping was being unreasonable. Of course, supercomputers were needed for the research of artificial intelligence. However, it was an indisputable fact that he had deviated from today's topic.
It could be seen from the topic of the speech that Shen Heping's speech today was about bragging about his research results and using this "Xiaowei" to show off in front of Song Wei. This kind of content was of no help to Xia Ruofei and Chen Xuan.
It was like the organizers had spent a lot of money to invite a singer to sing, but when the singer arrived at the scene, he gave a monologue for everyone.
Xia Ruofei and Chen Xuan looked at each other. They did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Shen Heping's self-righteousness made Xia Ruofei feel that it was a little ridiculous.
He was too lazy to talk to Shen Heping. He directly waved his hand to call the staff next to him and ordered, "Turn off the projector and the microphone on the podium."
The staff of the Taoyuan Club naturally listened to Xia Ruofei, regardless of whether the other party was an expert or a professor.
Therefore, he nodded without hesitation, then quickly walked to the temporary console next to him. He directly turned down the volume of the microphone on the podium, then picked up the remote control and turned off the projector.
Shen Heping did not expect Xia Ruofei's method to be so simple and crude. His face was pale as he slammed the table and asked, "What is the meaning of this?"
Xia Ruofei leaned back in his chair and said calmly, "Since Associate Professor Shen does not have anything to say about the topic of this conference, in order to save everyone's precious time, Associate Professor Shen will not speak. You can come down now!"
Guo Qian and Li Yufu looked at each other. They had participated in many conferences, but this was the first time they had seen such a tense situation.
In the past, the organizers treated the experts and professors like gods. They had never been as forceful as Xia Ruofei.
Wang Chi was also a little surprised. After all, he brought Shen Heping here. Although Shen Heping's behavior was a little unreasonable, Xia Ruofei's forceful attitude was really unexpected.
Wang Chi looked at the pale faced Shen Heping, cleared his throat, and said, "Boss Xia, Shen Heping's research is still somewhat new. Actually … It's okay to listen, right?"
Xia Ruofei sat up straight and said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, "Academician Wang, I think you should know very well what we want to hear about this conference. After all, this was discussed with you and the leaders of the other two universities in advance. I'm just a businessman. I may not understand the principles, but I also know that time is precious. Wasting time is shameful behavior! Not to mention, what Associate Professor Shen is talking about is not what we need at all. It won't bring us any benefits, so there's really no need to listen. "
Song Rui rolled his eyes and said, "We have a lot of things to do every day. Why would we have the time to listen to his artificial intelligence? I think this Associate Professor Shen really doesn't know his place. Since there's nothing we want to hear, why is he here? "
Song Rui was a person who was not stingy with his words. Even if it was an academic big shot like Wang Chi, he would still dare to argue with him, not to mention that Shen Heping's level was far from Wang Chi's! He did not care about trash like Shen Heping at all.
Wang Chi saw how forceful the other party was and showed a hint of displeasure. He felt like he had been humiliated.
However, when he thought about the cautious attitude of the person who asked him to help, he quickly suppressed his displeasure.
At Wang Chi's level, he was no longer just a scholar or an expert. To be precise, he was a "scholar tycoon". He did not just bury himself in research. He also had to consider all kinds of relationships and resources. Of course, all of this was to serve his academic career. But no matter what, Wang Chi was more like an official's role.
He obviously would not rashly offend people who obviously had a strong background for Shen Heping.
Therefore, Wang Chi chose to keep his mouth shut.
Like this, Shen Heping was left on the stage. His chest quickly rose and fell and his face became extremely ugly.
This was the first time he had faced this kind of "humiliation" in the years since he came back to China. Maybe his road was too smooth and he was a little carried away.
Shen Heping pointed at Xia Ruofei with a trembling finger and said with hatred, "You guys are unreasonable! You guys don't understand academics at all, but you're here pointing fingers! Talking about academics with you guys is an insult to academics! "
Xia Ruofei calmly said, "Associate Professor Shen, I advise you to come down by yourself! Don't delay Academician Wang's keynote speech. "
Xia Ruofei paused for a second and looked at Shen Heping. He then said, "If I were you, I would walk down by myself. Otherwise, if the security asked you to come down, it would be a bit ugly. Since you're not prepared for today's exchange, you might as well walk around outside! The Taoyuan Club's hot spring is pretty good. There's also a western restaurant and Ling's Private Restaurant. The dishes there are also very special. You can try them and put it on my tab … "
