April 2nd.
A special guest had arrived at Xing Hai Technologies.
He wore a light gray Chinese tunic suit and old-fashioned glasses. His hairstyle was meticulous, and his smile gave people the feeling of a spring breeze.
Minister Tan!
The country had sent someone over. His level was quite high.
In the conference room.
"Comrade Little Chen, your company announced such an important decision, but you didn't even inform us. We were not mentally prepared at all."
Minister Tan shook his head, looking as if he was caught off guard.
"Uh, what's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Chen Jin asked curiously. In the eyes of Minister Tan, he seemed to be feigning ignorance.
"Comrade Little Chen, let's not beat around the bush. The country will definitely support what your company wants to do. In the era of comprehensive intelligence, it will greatly promote the development of all industries. No one will stop this. Everyone wants to embrace a bright future, but …"
"Uh, but what?" Chen Jin looked at him.
Minister Tan squinted at him and asked, "It's just that all knowledge, technology, and data are stored in your company's database and have become your company's' assets. 'Is there a problem with that?"
"No problem."
Chen Jin nodded. "Anyone who purchases the Star Brain No. 4 chip and uses the Star Web platform to develop intelligent products will have all their data uploaded to Xing Hai Technologies' database. According to the terms of the cooperation, these data will belong to Xing Hai Technologies, but the users who upload the data can use it for free forever."
Minister Tan's eyes widened. He exhaled and no longer kept Chen Jin in suspense. He said directly, "If that's the case, then there's no problem with the statements on the Internet: Xing Hai Technologies wants to be a monopoly of knowledge and monopolize all knowledge?"
"No, no, no."
Chen Jin waved his hand at him. "I don't like the term 'monopoly.' This word is derogatory. I think the term 'guardian of knowledge' is the most suitable to describe Xing Hai Technologies."
Minister Tan rolled his eyes. What was the difference?
His expression also became serious. "Comrade Little Chen, I don't think you realize the seriousness of the problem! Or rather, you're on a path of no return. Can knowledge be monopolized by one person or one company? What if this person uses this knowledge to stir up trouble in all industries and earn all the money? Which industry can resist this? Won't this person monopolize all industries? "
"I won't."
Chen Jin shook his head and said, "Xing Hai Technologies will not enter every industry. We will only enter a few industries or develop some new industries ourselves. We will not destroy the rice bowls of others. I have also guaranteed at yesterday's press conference that we will not use user data to do things that harm the interests of users. If you are still worried, the country can enact relevant laws to restrict Xing Hai Technologies from entering traditional industries."
Regarding this, Chen Jin had a clear conscience. From the Wa-wah robot, the Bang Bang robot, the Little Star learning machine, to the Xing Hai computer, all the products produced by Xing Hai Technologies did not destroy their own people's rice bowls. Instead, they created many more jobs.
Of course, after the launch of Work Assistant, it caused a wave of programmer unemployment, but it was quickly resolved.
On the other hand, he had destroyed a lot of the foreigners' rice bowls that they had reaped without doing anything.
"No, this still won't do!"
Minister Tan said sternly, "You still haven't figured out the essence of the problem. I'm not just talking about the economic aspect, but the control of knowledge! If knowledge is in the hands of one person, the harm will be too great. He will almost have the ability to influence and control all industries. In fact, he alone has super control and can do whatever he wants. He can force any company that has formed a reliance on intelligent assistants to submit.
The harm brought about by this monopoly must be curbed at the source! "
Chen Jin raised his head slightly. "So … the country does not support the construction of the 'Intelligent Era'?"
"It's not that we don't support it, but we can't let a monopoly be in the hands of one company! There must be competition and restraint. "
Chen Jin nodded his head. He understood what the other party meant.
Minister Tan also proposed a solution. One was to split Xing Hai Technologies into two independent companies. Two was to take out the 'intelligent learning technology' and allow other companies to master it, so that there would be many companies similar to Xing Hai Technologies in the market.
But Chen Jin rejected both proposals. It was impossible for Xing Hai Technologies to split up! The intelligent learning technology was the core technology of Xing Hai Technologies. It had unlimited value and would not be shared with anyone.
"You …" Minister Tan glared at him. "Young man, no one will support you if you do this. The anti-monopoly department will not tolerate it either. You will hit a wall sooner or later!"
Chen Jin suddenly said, "I want to ask you a question, Minister Tan."
Minister Tan leaned against the back of the sofa. "Go ahead!"
"How many currencies will a country issue?"
"Of course it's one. Wouldn't it be a mess if there were several?"
"That's right, knowledge is the same. Knowledge is equivalent to currency. It's best if it's' issued 'by an institution."
Chen Jin explained, "Everyone knows the harm of monopoly, but they don't know the advantages that monopoly brings.
Especially when it comes to knowledge. If one company is responsible for the collection and management, the efficiency of collection will obviously exceed that of two companies. The content collected will also be more comprehensive.
First of all, let me propose a concept. Since all smart device users will upload their knowledge to Xing Hai Technologies' database, you can think of Xing Hai Technologies as a bank, a 'knowledge bank' that stores knowledge.
"Let's say that there are two 'knowledge banks' in the market. In terms of core technology, the smart companies will deposit part of their core technology in Bank A and the other part in Bank B. As a result, neither of the two 'knowledge banks' will be able to grasp the core technology.
Once knowledge is dispersed, the truth will come late.
If all knowledge is deposited in one bank, these knowledge can be learned from each other, combined, brewed into more complete knowledge, and combined into more powerful technology, this will undoubtedly have a great impact on the development of the entire industry and our country.
Just like the principle of the Little Star learning machine, as long as all knowledge is mastered, the various industries in the Z nation will see rapid development. Major scientific and technological achievements will emerge like a blowout.
This is the ultimate sharing of knowledge. Everyone can obtain the best knowledge. But in order to surpass others and gain a competitive advantage, they have to explore higher knowledge and more advanced technology on this basis …
Under this competition mechanism, the speed of technological development in the Z nation will definitely be astonishing!
Fifty years, a hundred years, five hundred years later, the future of the Z nation will be unimaginable.
They might even quickly enter the interstellar era and step into the sea of stars.
If the number of knowledge banks was not limited to Xing Hai Technologies, with the inertia of human selfishness, the ultimate sharing of knowledge could not be achieved.
Take Haierfa for example. Ever since the emergence of intelligent learning technology, there was only one knowledge bank in the beginning. But in order to prevent a monopoly, it was forcibly split up by the government and could not unleash its greatest potential. This made the artificial intelligence, Nuwa, sigh incessantly. She said that if the knowledge banks could be unified, Haierfa might have broken through to a higher civilization before the alien blockade arrived. It would be impossible for it to stagnate for hundreds of years.
On Earth, if only one knowledge bank was established and all knowledge was unified, the future would be limitless.
After listening to Chen Jin's words.
Minister Tan's eyes gradually lit up. His body sat straight and trembled slightly.
He said in an agitated tone, "Comrade Chen, I may have misunderstood you! I'll report this situation to the higher-ups and ask for their opinion! "
He returned to the capital on the same day.
…
Two days later.
Minister Tan returned. He discussed with Chen Jin for a long time and came up with the final solution.
1. Agree to Xing Hai Technologies' establishment of the "Xing Hai Knowledge Bank" and designate it as the only central bank responsible for the collection and management of all data.
2. Xing Hai Technologies invested 10 billion to build a "permanent data center" in Guishan Province. The state would send special forces to protect it to prevent it from being destroyed by the enemy.
3. The state would invest 20 billion to build a "data backup center." All the data in the Xing Hai Knowledge Bank must be backed up to the state.
4. The state would have the right to use all the data.
In this way, the two sides successfully reached an agreement (it seemed to be a bit like dividing the spoils).
Xing Hai Technologies' "Intelligent Era" strategy eliminated all obstacles. It could be said that the road ahead was smooth.
