"Hello? I'm Benedy."
"Ah hi! It's really been a long time, senior sister, I didn't expect you to call at this time."
Professor was on the phone while beckoning to the students in front of him to go out.
These students watched the professor leave, and they were all listless like deflated balls.
"What to do, what to do, is our result really going to be announced in an imperfect manner?"
"Professor... hey..."
Professor Benedict quickly left the laboratory and walked to the dimly lit corridor.
Outside the door, an old-looking sign appeared a bit bleak under the dim light of the corridor.
"Senior Aya Tsukino, you saved me for a short time."
Benedy let out a long breath while speaking.
Just now all his students were waiting for his final answer.
But he is really difficult to answer.
…
Benedy is a professor at Stanford University.
Aya Tsukino is Benedict's senior. Although Benedict is actually more than ten years older than Aya Tsukino, Aya Tsukino is indeed Benedy's senior in her studies.
Benedict used to be a doctoral student in another discipline, and he had a bright future.
But by chance, or some kind of inevitable encounter, he came into contact with video games.
Of course, video games are not a rare thing, anyone can touch them, but video games alone have had a huge impact on him.
When games like Mario, Contra, and Tetris were all the rage in Japan, it was because one of his classmates was Japanese, and that classmate happened to be one of the first to come into contact with the game when he came back from the summer vacation. The Americans of this video game.
Immediately afterwards, he was completely attracted by the miraculous thing in his eyes.
On a TV screen, people can actually manipulate the actions of the pixel characters inside.
How to act is up to you, it's like Homo sapiens saw modern humans use a lighter to light a fire.
Hmm...maybe a little exaggerated, but that's how the shock felt in Benedy's heart at that time.
Being a Ph.D., he had the urge to delve into a new subject for the first time.
And he soon knew the principle of this video game, which was explained to him by a Stanford computer doctor friend he knew.
Then, in his thirties, he immediately decided to turn around to learn programming, to learn computers, and to learn the principles of game development.
But he is a theoretical school.
His dream is not to develop a cool and fun game.
His dream is to explore the origin of video games.
How each program changes into a magical and interesting entertainment product in front of the programmer.
With amazing talent, even if he starts to learn a new subject from scratch, he can reread it successfully in five or six years and become a doctor of information digitization.
Immediately afterwards, relying on his identities and qualifications, he successfully stayed in the school to teach.
Later, he had explored the origins of modern video games and began to feel a little bored.
So he later found a new direction, that is artificial intelligence.
The research institutes and teams he formed can be regarded as the first batch of artificial intelligence research and development teams.
With the help of the first-mover advantage, their team really achieved a lot of results in the early stage.
Later, he suddenly had a new idea.
Let artificial intelligence and video games combine.
It's just that he didn't think Zhu Youxing was so deep.
What he wants is to train an artificial intelligence to fight against humans. He wants to use artificial intelligence's learning ability to surpass humans and become a desperate high wall in the e-sports industry, and completely use artificial intelligence to rule the e-sports field.
However, this kind of thing is a bit thankless, and the output of the results is slow, and even if it is output, it seems that it is difficult to become something that has a substantial impact.
If it weren't for his qualifications and achievements over the past years, he might not have been able to persuade Stanford University to insist on injecting funds into his research projects.
It’s just that in the end, Stanford University’s funding management department will eventually be unable to bear it. They seriously suspect that Benedict wants to use the convenience of research to make himself happy, because everyone knows that he switched because he likes video games. major.
"Benedy, it seems that you haven't been doing well recently? Has your research encountered a bottleneck?"
On the other end of the phone, Tsukino Aya first showed her concern.
"No, there's no bottleneck, it's just other reasons. Forget it, let's not talk about it. Senior sister, why did you suddenly think of calling me today? Do you want to borrow some students from me to help you study game technology? "
Before, Aya Tsukino occasionally asked Benedy, a junior, to borrow a few well-qualified Stanford students to help develop some related technologies for video games.
Of course it's not free, Tsukino Aya is very generous, and the money she gives is not a lot.
Benedy suddenly thought that if his senior sister wanted someone to help, even he could lend it out.
It’s just that I want more money, maybe it’s better than nothing for project research, but no matter how small a mosquito is, it’s still meat, isn’t it?
"No, I didn't want to ask you to borrow someone this time. Let me ask you how your research on artificial intelligence is going?"
"Huh? Not a borrower? You asked me about the AI?"
Benedy was a little surprised.
I didn't expect Aya Tsukino to ask this suddenly.
"I remember you told me back then that your StarCraft artificial intelligence AI that can defeat professional players seems to be about to complete the research? I kind of want to see the specific results."
"Ah... You said this, the result is actually almost the same, but there is still a little gap."
"Gap...what does it mean..."
"It's just...a matter of funding."
Benedy said hesitantly.
Yue Yecai came to a sudden: "Are you short of money? Didn't the people at Stanford give you money?"
“They felt that our project output was a bit slow and a little impatient, so they temporarily stopped continuing to provide financial support, but now is just when we want more computing power, we need more equipment…”
"I'm here to sponsor you."
"Um?"
"Oh, what I said may not be rigorous. It should be that our Youxing Electronic Entertainment can sponsor your research, but before that, our president Zhu Youxing has a request. This specific request is that he wants you to First…"
Benedy couldn't hear what Tsukino Aya was about to say at this time.
What echoed in his mind now were the words Tsukino Aya just said.
‘Youxing Electronic Entertainment can sponsor’
All of a sudden, Benedy felt that all the haze in his heart was swept away with this sentence.
