Chapter 236 Three VVs
password?

Why is it the password again?

When Lin Xian heard these two words, he felt overwhelmed.

Ever since he first dreamed about the safe in the bank warehouse at the end of last year, he has been deeply immersed in the vortex of codes.

It's either this password or that password.

It's either this number or that number.

He really hated this guessing game more than ever before.

but……

He looked into the trash can robot's shiny green eyes.

Considering that this is the door-opening robot that Zhao Yingjun left for himself, there must be some deep meaning behind it asking for the password here.

He turned his head and looked at the ancient and technologically advanced [Rhine Sky City's First Generation Intelligent Hub - VV] next to him.

This huge building, which is several buildings tall, looks like a high-tech computer complex, or the control center of the entire Rhine Sky City.

Lin Xian had thought of it a long time ago.

The sky city has such a high level of intelligence and automation that it would be impossible without a powerful computer control system.

There are schools of fish and cars circling at high speed in the sky, and all kinds of robots of all sizes are running in an intricate manner in the city... All kinds of devices are running very fast, and any small mistake will inevitably lead to a chain accident with very serious consequences.

Needless to say, there will be property losses, and casualties are inevitable.

Therefore, there must be a powerful control center in this city to control and maintain the intelligent operation of the entire city.

It now seems that this absurdly large and complex computer in front of us was once the earliest control center of the Rhine Sky City.

And its name, coincidentally, is also called VV.

Lin Xian looked at the trash can robot that was tightly holding his ankle, then turned his head to look at the giant computer that was dozens of meters high, and then looked down at his shoes...

All three of them are VV, all called VV.

When they are put together at this time, they should be synthesized into a two-star VV in the game.

This moment is definitely not a coincidence.

Since the trash can robot asked for the password at this special moment... that means the clue to the password is most likely hidden in this huge, super-intelligent VV in front of us.

Lin Xian continued to look at the electronic introduction board, which contained a detailed description of the exhibit.

The description is long...

To put it simply, it is just as Lin Xian had just guessed.

There are three difficulties in the construction of the entire Rhine Sky City.

The first difficulty is the building structure and urban foundation. Ordinary reinforced concrete cannot bear such a huge mass, nor can it withstand the powerful thrust generated by the nuclear fusion engine.

Now it seems... this controlled nuclear fusion engine uses a technology that Lin Xian has never heard of, cold fusion.

When Academician Lyon died, he also looked up a lot of information about controlled nuclear fusion, but rarely mentioned cold fusion.

It is estimated that this new technology will be cracked in the next few hundred years. Judging from the actual results, both its stability and safety will be much stronger than the traditional high-temperature nuclear fusion model.

So, in order to make this sky city strong enough to withstand gravity, stress, and thrust, the foundation of the entire city is made of hafnium alloy.

Although this project is complicated and tedious, it is actually not that difficult compared to the other two difficulties.

The second difficulty is the construction of more than 6000 cold fusion engines, which are the core part of building the city in the sky. Without the huge thrust generated by these cold fusion engines, the city in the sky would not be able to take off.

The huge amount of financial resources consumed in this project was the main culprit for the collapse of the world's giant Rhine Company. It was much more expensive and difficult than building a city.

Fortunately, Rhine Corporation's president Zhao Yingjun overcame numerous difficulties and finally got through this hurdle. At least Rhine Corporation survived until the Sky City was launched before it went bankrupt.

As for the third difficulty in building the Sky City...

It lies in the [central control system].

The City in the Sky is not only a highly intelligent city.

What's more, the status of more than 6000 fusion engines must also be controlled in real time.

After all, Rhine Sky City is flying in the sky. In essence, it is no different from a kite, just a heavier kite.

Being high in the troposphere, the area affected by winds is so huge and irregular, and the weight distribution of the city itself is also dynamic.

and so……

If there wasn't a powerful [central brain] to constantly fine-tune the direction and thrust of the 6000 nuclear fusion engines...if one wasn't careful, the Sky City might just tilt or even overturn in the sky.

Therefore, this central brain that is capable of controlling and maintaining the entire sky city has become the top priority of the entire project.

In order to design such a super artificial intelligence, countless talented scientists worked one after another, and it took more than 200 years to finally build the first generation of Rhine Sky City's intelligent center.

VV.

The introduction specifically mentioned that the name VV was chosen by Zhao Yingjun. It was the name of a puppy she raised when she was young and she liked it very much.

"what?"

Seeing this, Lin Xian couldn't hold back any longer. VV was a puppy raised by Zhao Yingjun?
its not right……

Isn’t VV yourself?
What kind of puppy is this?

A little puppy?

Lin Xian couldn't help but recall the flower language of steel wool...

Wealth, and forbearance.

He smiled and shook off this ridiculous fantasy. What if Zhao Yingjun really raised a puppy?

The protagonist of "Cyberpunk 2077" is named V, so why can't her dog be named VV?
At least for now, whether it is the central brain of the Rhine Sky City or the trash can robot that is holding him under his feet... their names VV can be traced, but his own VV is confusing. He can't tell whether it is him or not, and can only guess.

Lin Xian continued to look at the introduction on the electronic briefing board.

This first-generation intelligent center is essentially a giant computer and super artificial intelligence.

But its architecture and logic are very advanced. Through continuous iterative learning and data simulation, its intelligence becomes increasingly powerful, ultimately allowing the Rhine Sky City to successfully and stably launch into space, becoming a great contributor to this century-long project.

Later on, the intelligent central brain VV iterated, learned, and updated itself at an increasingly faster speed. One day... it completely got rid of the existence of storage media and turned into countless data streams soaring in the network of Rhine Sky City.

It is not seen anywhere, yet it is everywhere.

At the beginning, some people were worried whether such an infinitely evolving super artificial intelligence would threaten human existence.

However, these concerns turned out to be unnecessary.

Because Zhao Yingjun, the builder of Rhine Sky City, had already thought of this situation and taken precautions.

She put an unbreakable lock on VV, which prevented it from ever leaving Rhine Sky City. At the same time, it also locked its underlying logic forever to "do not harm humans and always obey orders."

Since its launch, Rhine Sky City has been operating stably for more than 200 years without any errors.

This is all thanks to the super artificial intelligence VV. It is because of its diligence that tens of millions of families in Rhine Sky City have achieved happiness and well-being.

Therefore, all the residents of Sky City love VV and are grateful to VV, just as they respect Zhao Yingjun.

……

This is the end of the introduction on the electronic briefing board.

Lin Xian also completely understood what the Sky City’s central brain, the super artificial intelligence VV, was.

It's similar to the settings in many science fiction movies.

Even in 2023, where Lin Xian lives, AI technology is developing rapidly. Not only has there appeared the AI ​​AlphaGo, which even the top human Go players cannot defeat, but there has also been a series of large-scale AI models that are changing with each passing day, constantly subverting the world.

"so……"

Lin Xian looked at the trash can robot whose eyes were glowing green, staring at him closely, and repeatedly asking him to enter the password.

This is Rhine Sky City.

【And Rheinland was founded by itself. 】

5 month 20 day.

Lin Xian recalled that morning again, the morning when he submitted his resignation. In the office on the 22nd floor of MX Company, Zhao Yingjun was holding a calendar in one hand, pointing at the date with the other, and looking at him with a smile:

"So... today should be a day worth remembering for you."

"On May 2023, 5, you took the most memorable step in your life, found what you really want to do, and gave the company a name you like. I am really happy for you."

"No matter what achievements your company will make, what stage it will take, or what scale it will develop into in the future, in short, today... Rheinland Corporation has come into this world."

Yes.

Lin Xian slowly raised his head.

For the name Rhine and for my own life, if there is a day that is most worth remembering...

Apart from the birthday, it must be the day that named Rhine Company.

The date when TUV Rheinland was officially established and announced to the public was the day of the ribbon-cutting ceremony, not May 5.

Just as Zhao Yingjun said, this is a memorial day that belongs to him alone.

This is the first real step I have taken;
It is the beginning of finding the direction of life and being willing to work hard to change all this bloodshed.

"Please enter your password!"

It was still an emotionless mechanical electronic voice, and the trash can robot looked at him with dull eyes.

Lin Xian turned around.

In front of the giant artificial intelligence VV, one VV looked at another VV:

"password is……"

Lin Xian said softly:

"20230520."
