After the college entrance examination, life began to follow one's heart

Chapter 323 Thesis (Career)
Night, hotel.

Pei Danqing was taking a shower in the bathroom.

Taking advantage of this time, Xu Lin turned on his computer.

First, he clicked on Fernandi's message.

The latest news from Fernandi is today, and there was also news from yesterday, asking if Xu Lin is safe.

"I have returned to China and am currently safe."

Fernandi replied a minute later.

"Xu, you finally replied. It's been so long since we last contacted each other."

"Yeah, it's been a long time since we last talked. How are you? Have you been affected?"

Xu Lin hadn't contacted him for over three months.

For more than three months, he devoted himself to training the Moon Goddess, oblivious to everything else. He went through it again and again, constantly trying, testing, and training. He was completely immersed in it. Most people would have their spirits broken if they did the same work as him, let alone have the energy to keep up.

People may not know that those who accomplish great things are invariably full of energy.

There's a very mystical saying that if an ordinary person were to sit on the dragon throne, they would fall seriously ill because they couldn't bear the weight of it.

People who accomplish great things must be physically strong; this is a basic requirement.

"I'm a gray-market businessman. As long as I don't flaunt it too much, I won't get into trouble."

Fernandi: "But you, Xu, you've been quite amazing lately. I'm very curious, what exactly have you done?"

“I created an intelligent life form, and at the moment of its birth, I shut down Tokyo’s power system and isolated Tokyo’s internet and communications.”

"Intelligent life? Like in science fiction movies?"

"Correct."

"Xu, what you've done is astonishing; I simply can't comprehend it!"

"Fernandi, I have to thank you. Without your help, many things wouldn't have gone so smoothly."

Xu Lin continued, "In the future, I can guarantee to protect your family for ten generations."

"That's an exaggeration, ten generations? By then, we won't even be in this world anymore, and our traces will be completely erased by the world."

Fernandi: "No, perhaps your mark will not be erased. You are a man who does great things, and history will remember you, while my mark will be erased."

"My family will endure, and so will yours. I will have my descendants and my artificial intelligence protect your family."

Xu Lin wasn't just saying it; it was his promise.

In literature, the Chinese people celebrate friendship even more than love.

Xu Lin: "Fernandi, may our friendship last forever."

Fernandi: "Yes, friendship lasts forever!"

Then, Xu Lin contacted Tilin.

Tilin also sent messages yesterday and today.

"I'm fine."

"I almost thought something had happened to you!"

"Obviously I won't be in any trouble. From now on, I can be fearless."

"So you succeeded?"

"It's done."

"Terrifying! Let me see it sometime!"

There will be opportunities later.

Two minutes later.

Pei Danqing came out of the bathroom.

She just finished showering and is now wrapped in a bath towel, looking like a lotus emerging from the water—very beautiful.

"Are you busy?"

Pei Danqing saw that Xu Lin was using a computer.

"Yeah, I'm busy with something."

It's only 8 p.m. now, it's still early.

Xu Lin said, "I'm going to scare this world."

"To scare the world?" Pei Danqing asked curiously.

"You'll find out later."

Xu Lin opened Word.

Xu Lin was actually writing a report about the power outage and internet communication disruptions in Tokyo.

name?

Xu Lin thought for a moment and then started typing.

The Tokyo Incident.

The article was short, only a little over three thousand words, and Xu Lin finished writing it in just over ten minutes.

There are two versions, one in Chinese and one in English.

However, despite its short length of just over three thousand words, anyone who reads this article will know how terrifying it is.

Xu Lin was essentially telling others that he had the ability to deal with Tokyo's internet, communication, and power systems, and similarly, he had the ability to deal with the internet, communication, and power systems of any of your countries.

The fewer words, the more terrifying it is.

Xu Lin will eventually make his appearance, and he needs to have enough leverage to make the Western upper class fear him, just as they fear an atomic bomb.

Domestically, Xu Lin has sufficient autonomy, as long as he doesn't become too arrogant.

From now on, he'll be in the public eye, and he won't need bodyguards when he goes out. If you dare touch him, just wait for your country to be blown up.

Ten minutes later, Xu Lin logged into Weibo for the first time in a long time.

Publish an article.

The article is on his personal website; clicking the link takes you directly there.

Besides the article, there was also a quote from Xu Lin: "Long time no see. I've been up to something lately."

Young Master Xu logged into his account after a long absence and posted content, attracting a large influx of people.

The internet has been abuzz lately, with multiple platforms flooded with reports that Tokyo's power system was shut down. Apart from a few hundred local hospitals, which were unaffected, the city's internet and communication systems were also cut off, effectively wiping it out of the world. It is said that these few hours caused Tokyo trillions of yen in economic losses.

It's important to understand that in an era where the economy is highly dependent on electricity, it's normal for many machines to stop instantly due to power outages, resulting in huge economic losses.

Young Master Xu was suddenly thrust into the spotlight. Some people felt their blood boil because China and Taiwan had a deep-seated hatred for each other, and countless people wanted to destroy the country. Of course, others criticized Young Master Xu, saying that he was harming the interests between the two countries.

But Xu Lin ignored all of these things.

Now that the government is backing him up, he doesn't need to worry about the chicken feet.

"Young Master Xu, this is quite a small move. Did you create a super artificial intelligence?"

"They say that factory has more than 10,000 servers and 100,000 H100 GPUs. This level of quantity is used to train artificial intelligence."

"Is Young Master Xu training a large model? It is said that only GPT6 training uses training clusters of this size."

"No, Young Master Xu's artificial intelligence is most likely beyond all our imagination. In the current world, no artificial intelligence has the power to isolate the internet and communications of a megacity and shut down its power system. What does that mean? It's equivalent to directly destroying the city. Therefore, what Young Master Xu trained could not be a large model. I suspect that Young Master Xu has secretly built a large one, and it's so large that we can't even imagine it!"

Xu Gongzi quickly occupied the top five spots on the trending searches.

Meanwhile, Xu Lin also registered an account on Facebook.

To be precise, he hacked into Facebook and created an account for himself.

Account name: Xu Gongzi.

Xu Lin published this article on the above public page, but it was in English.

After it's published, start streaming it so it stays on the public page for the next 24 hours.

Facebook has the most users in the world, and many people use it, so what many people will see next is...

In fact, many people are just observing from the sidelines, because they don't really understand the situation.

However, Xu Lin's article was clearly not intended for ordinary people; he was actually warning the West.

Pei Danqing also read Xu Lin's article and asked, "How powerful is this artificial intelligence?"

"Intelligent life, how powerful do you think it is?"

"How strong? I don't know either."

This is a blind spot in Pei Danqing's knowledge.

"It's even more terrifying than nuclear weapons. The key is that it doesn't have the same checks and balances as nuclear weapons. For example, if you have nuclear weapons and I have them, we'll eventually be in a relatively balanced state. Even if the two sides fight and completely break off relations, they won't easily use nuclear weapons. But my artificial intelligence is different; it has no limitations." "Then you can control it? In that case, it's very dangerous."

"Why control it? It's the guardian spirit of our family, and it will continue to protect my descendants."

Xu Lin laughed and said, "Actually, there's no need to worry about what intelligent life forms will do in the future. To be precise, the current technological development of the human world is already very slow. Therefore, we need to add a super boost to it."

"As for what will happen in the future, that's a matter for later, and it's not something my generation can handle."

Xu Lin was quite optimistic. If we want to prevent these things, we can only stop developing technology. But as long as we develop technology, many things will be unavoidable. Thousands of years have passed since the human world entered the age of civilization. Civilization is constantly progressing, but there is one thing that has never changed, and that is human nature. It has never changed. It was like this five thousand years ago, and it is like this now, five thousand years later.

The book talks about the abdication system of Yao, Shun, and Yu in history, and how noble the morality of these ancient monarchs was.

But Xu Lin didn't believe any of them, because throughout thousands of years of history, when it comes to interests, human nature is always like this; how could anyone peacefully hand over their interests?

Years from now, the five major incurable diseases of the current human world will be conquered. However, for the sake of profit, new viruses that fit the characteristics of the times will inevitably emerge. Capitalists or certain special groups will be able to make money through these diseases. This is unavoidable. Therefore, evil artificial intelligence will also appear in theory.

Therefore, Xu Lin would not think about things decades or even centuries from now, because they are meaningless.

Xu Lin thought for a moment and then gave the Moon Goddess an order: "I think a lot of spies will be looking for me soon. Find them and submit the list."

Moon Goddess: "Okay."

After completing this step, Xu Lin had nothing to do for the time being.

He turned around and picked up Pei Danqing.

"Just finished showering, smells wonderful. Have you missed me lately?"

"How could I not miss you? I haven't been able to contact you for over three months, and I was worried something had happened to you." Pei Danqing pouted.

"Don't worry, I will never be in trouble, and it's even less likely that I will be in trouble now."

"How could something not happen? You're in such a high position right now, I'm afraid foreign powers will take action against you."

"That won't happen. I have enough leverage, they won't dare to touch me. But don't worry, I'll be fine. Besides, our child isn't even born yet."

"She's not even pregnant yet, let alone having a child."

"No rush, I want you two to get pregnant by the end of the year, and then have a whole bunch of kids for me!"

After completing the Moon Goddess ritual, Xu Lin's desire to have children unconsciously intensified.

He is only twenty years old now, and he will have all sorts of inventions and creations in the future. In other words, he will have a huge family business, which means he will need to have several children, or even more than ten.

Among these children, there must be some who are very capable, otherwise the family business cannot be passed down.

Xu Lin believed in his abilities. He was the first generation of his family, just like the emperors who established dynasties in ancient times. The first generation was bound to be the most powerful, and each subsequent generation would be less capable than the last. This was an inevitable historical law. In the end, this empire would collapse and be divided up by others.

Therefore, Xu Lin asked the Moon Goddess to protect his descendants, otherwise the line might have ended in some generation.

Xu Lin pulled off Pei Danqing's bath towel.

Her flawless body was on full display.

Xu Lin hasn't touched a woman since March, which is now over August—a full five months.

Therefore, it's easy to imagine how intense Xu Lin's performance will be tonight.

"Xu Lin, don't be in such a hurry."

"Why aren't you in a hurry? Who told you to look so beautiful tonight?"

Although Pei Danqing appeared reserved on the surface, she hadn't been touched by Xu Lin in a long time, and besides, she was getting older.

Tonight is going to be intense.

It's fortunate that the soundproofing here is very good, otherwise the neighbors wouldn't be able to sleep either.

The two started at 9 p.m. and continued until 3 p.m. the next day.

"Director Pei, are you feeling better?"

"I'm ignoring you, you jerk!"

Pei Danqing twitched her nose.

Xu Lin smiled and wiped away her tears.

Pei Danqing: "I want to take a bath."

"Let me carry you to take a bath."

Pei Danqing also has difficulty walking today.

After taking a shower, the two did not leave the hotel.

If you get hungry, just have the hotel send you food. This is a high-end hotel; whatever you want to eat, just have the chef make it for you.

Not long after eating, Pei Danqing fell asleep because she was too tired.

It's not even four o'clock in the afternoon, and Xu Lin isn't sleepy.

He sat in front of the computer.

How was the article I posted yesterday?
Xu Lin took a look and found that the article had a significant impact, especially the section on "foot-plate chicken".

But it's not a big problem.

By 2027, China will be very powerful, and small countries like the "Chicken" (a derogatory term for China) will be insignificant.

"One last paper and we're done."

Xu Lin began to conceive the idea in his mind, and soon, the paper on the Moon Goddess was completed.

He knew what he was going to write.

The paper is not very long, with more than 30,000 words in the main body. It contains a large amount of data and includes I Ching code that is incomprehensible to most people. Currently, only Xu Lin understands and can use this code.

In addition, Xu Lin wrote down everything, including the training model, training framework, training duration, and training funding.

However, Xu Lin's paper will be very profound, and the scientific community doesn't know how long it will take to digest it unless Xu Lin provides guidance.

After all, even if others spent 50 billion yuan, they could not train Xu Lin to achieve the same results, because they did not have Xu Lin's framework, formula, and so on.

Moreover, even if Xu Lin releases all these things, no one else can replicate them.

Because there is only the result and no process, but in fact the process is the most important. If the path is wrong, the result will not be the same. It's like doing a math problem. You know the answer, but you can't figure it out.

So, it's nothing special that Xu Lin published a paper; he was simply telling the world, "I, Young Master Xu, have succeeded."

In the future, the most advanced artificial intelligence will be in the East. If you want to learn it, come over here.

Xu Lin already possesses the immense power to shift the world's technology from the West to the East and change the trajectory of global development.

After all, Xu Lin was looking at the issue from the perspective of civilization, even transcending the nature of the nation.

In his view, China is a civilization. It is hard to say what form China will take in the future, but this civilization can endure forever.

This is why he allowed the Moon Goddess to protect this civilization in critical moments, but at other times, the Moon Goddess would not interfere with what happened to China.

As the ancients said, Heaven and Earth are ruthless, treating all things like straw dogs.

This statement roughly means that the way of Heaven operates without excessive interference with the things in the world.

"The East is the future of artificial intelligence!"

Xu Lin was in a good mood and happily wrote his thesis.

Currently, humanity is still feeling its way across the river when it comes to artificial intelligence. It requires a lot of trial and error and summarizing before a major breakthrough can occur at some point in the future, perhaps twenty or thirty years from now.

But Xu Lin had a superior perspective; he took the lead and left humanity far behind.

As we all know, technological progress is not a slow process, or a gradual progression. Instead, a major breakthrough suddenly appears, and then the combined efforts of all humankind lead to a technological explosion.

For example, one day in the future, a super energy source that can absolutely replace oil and electricity may emerge, such as the commonly mentioned controlled nuclear fusion. If this thing is successful, humanity may quickly enter the interstellar age.

For example, in war, everyone engages in an arms race, and technology advances rapidly. All sorts of random weapons are produced, including some extremely horrific ones. At this point, even a scrap of technology can become an important civilian technology and people will take it for granted.

Or, to put it another way, consider those truly sinister technologies. Gene editing, for example, is prohibited by law because it violates ethics and morality, but there are certainly people secretly researching it. And in a few years, this technology will inevitably become commonplace. It's only prohibited now, but that doesn't mean it will be in the future, because it involves enormous profits. As long as there are profits, there will be investors.

Therefore, given the emergence of Xu Lin's artificial intelligence, it's hard to say what the future holds for artificial intelligence and many related and even peripheral fields in China ten years from now.

He was only responsible for creating this thing.

Paper title: Intelligent Life.

There are no random words or phrases, such as a long list of titles, like "Research on So-and-So" or "Exploration and Application of So-and-So," etc. There are none of those.

The paper, with over 30,000 words, plus other parts, totals 40,000 words.

Finally, Xu Lin submitted his manuscript to the Chinese Academy of Sciences and to Nature.

Xu Lin has connections at the Chinese Academy of Sciences; he can get approval with just a shout.

As for Nature, the English version, email submission, hacking the email, pinning it to the top for review.

Nature is one of the world's four major scientific journals, and it is difficult to get published unless it is a major breakthrough.

There's definitely nothing wrong with Xu Lin's piece.
