Reborn in 2010, the AI ​​in my mind is too powerful.

In the conference room of Bilibili's headquarters in Building 3 of the Guozheng Center in Shanghai, China, everyone was busy, even though they didn't know what they were busy with. They were all walking around pretending to be busy.

The station manager, Bi Shi, pretended to be looking at various backend data in the boss's seat, appearing very confident, but in reality, her legs were trembling uncontrollably.

Since Chen Yiran announced that he is a shareholder of Bilibili, he has been posting videos on Bilibili. Within a week, he became the person with the most fans on Bilibili, directly breaking 10 million.

As a result, bilibili had to urgently change the 100 questions for the official membership application to very simple etiquette and general knowledge questions, for fear of not being able to handle this surge in traffic.

The company has also moved from a dilapidated building to the current grand Guozheng Center, and even put a small TV character downstairs.

Chen Yiran has already indicated that bilibili will become China's largest UGC (user-generated content) website in the future, replacing Youku.

At the same time, it also aimed to become China's largest film and video website, eventually becoming iQiyi.

In the film and television sector, things are already looking promising. Film and television websites rely on acquiring copyrights, and Bilibili is currently backed by a powerful company with plenty of money. They first acquired all the American dramas from Sohu, and then bought a lot of copyrights from LeEco, which wanted to transform into a car manufacturer.

As for user-generated content, bilibili is doing it very quickly because this is something bilibili has been doing before; it's just a matter of transforming the anime/manga/game (ACG) community into a platform that encompasses all areas.

Driven by generous video incentives, a large number of emerging creators began to migrate to Bilibili.

Today, bilibili is preparing to make a big splash at the Aurora launch event, first establishing that if you want to watch tech launch events, bilibili is the place to go!

Therefore, Bi Shi, the shy site administrator, personally took charge and prepared to conduct a live broadcast in the main live broadcast room.

He was connected with Wang Ziru from ZEALER Channel, currently the top reviewer in the industry, Na Yan from Tech Aesthetics, and Wang Benhong from Maoyan Technology.

The Aurora launch event started at 7:00 AM Beijing time, and the live stream here started at 6:30 AM, with a half-hour warm-up first.

At the last moment, Bi Shi finally chickened out and weakly said, "It's so early in the morning, I haven't eaten yet, is there anyone who can take over for me?"

The surrounding employees pretended not to hear. After adjusting the live streaming equipment, Bilibili co-founder Chai Dao Niang Mu Mu squinted and said, "If the Speaker gets upset and withdraws his investment, you're dead!"

This refers to Chen Yiran, whose Bilibili account is called "Chairman".

Her husband, another co-founder of Bilibili, heard this and immediately stood behind Bi Shi, like an executioner ready to strike at any moment.

"Ahem, hello everyone, this is the site administrator, Boogers. Welcome to today's live stream. We've also invited some of the most popular review bloggers from our site."

"Hello everyone, I'm Wang Ziru from the ZEALER channel."

"Hi everyone, I'm Na Yan, welcome to Tech Aesthetics."

A voice, neither clearly male nor female, said, "Hello everyone, I'm Wang Benhong from Maoyan Technology. Teacher, this isn't a tech aesthetics event; we're here to watch the press conference at the invitation of the website administrator."

"Hehe, sorry, I'm just used to saying that. Let's talk about today's press conference. I actually feel that Aurora has big ambitions today. It might be a more industrialized product launch, not something for ordinary consumers."

Wang Ziru then started praising: "OKOKOK, whatever it is, Aurora will definitely give us a huge surprise. The general speculation on the internet is that it's a newer VR device, and some more radical ones are guessing it's a technological breakthrough like a brain-computer interface. WOW, whatever it is, we've witnessed history."

Under pressure, Wang Benhong began to refute the claims, but having accepted the money, he said, "I think it might also be a scam. In reality, the Aurora phenomenon won't have much impact on China's technological ecosystem in the short term."

The live chat immediately started buzzing with activity.

"Sister Benben is at it again. It seems Meizu isn't completely dead after all; they still have money for PR."

"Not necessarily. It might have started out for money, but feelings can develop over time. Maybe she's really in love now."

"Wang Ziru is right, but his voice is disgusting."

"No, where's the stationmaster? I'm such a big stationmaster, say something!"

Bi Shi should have stepped in to control the situation, but lacking the ability, she decisively buryed her head in the sand, and the three review experts began a heated debate. Wang Ziru was purely a sycophant, Benben Jie refuted under immense pressure, and Na Yan, seemingly an honest man, was actually stirring up trouble from both sides.

The comments section was mostly filled with mockery of Meizu, saying that Meizu has basically squandered all the goodwill it had in the past year. The main problem is that its product capabilities, due to a lack of effective management, have completely fallen behind other companies.

Chen Yiran originally wanted to invest in Meizu but was politely refused. He then turned around and invested in Meizu's arch-rival, Xiaomi. As a result, Meizu, without any sense of propriety, also started to hate Chen Yiran.

Meizu is the only Chinese company that hasn't joined the Surge alliance and remains within the Google ecosystem. They also occasionally spend money to hire online trolls, but the results are poor; they basically just provide a laughing stock.

Time flew by. When the live video stream started and Chen Yiran asked Kabir to demonstrate his exoskeleton, Wang Ziru exclaimed loudly, "Wow! My God, I'm so excited! This is the future of humanity!"

Sister Benben was speechless, like a defeated dog.

After the Wanderer with the wet components came out, Wang Ziru dared not speak. He keenly noticed that this thing seemed to be a bit sensitive.

The comments section went wild, fueling the fire.

"Speak up, you braggarts!"

"When can we buy them?"

"Why is it still a technical issue? There's no actual gameplay footage. Let me see it, let me see it!"

"Sword Art Online?! Hurry up and release it! I want to see if there's any way I can stay there!"

"Station Master! Say something, Station Master! Chen Yiran is our Speaker! Let him draw a prize for us!"

When the other three people were speechless, Bi Shi truly felt a fire burning in her heart!

Even if he's a business idiot, he still knows that with this thing, they can create virtual entertainment, and Bilibili's future is too bright.

In a rush of anger, he immediately made the decision: "Scan! Definitely! We'll implement a random sampling function and pick ten people at a time! Don't worry, Chen Yiran is our station's spiritual leader and honorary station chief!"

Bilibili has always been an integral part of Aurora Group. I'll ask around later if it's possible to go to Hawaii first to experience it and share my impressions with everyone.

When the T300 came out, Bi Shi sensed something was wrong, but she still persisted under pressure, promising, "We'll give away a few! We'll give away a few to everyone, so they can go to work in your place!"

But in the end, when two deceased scientists appeared on stage in the form of a wheelchair and a spider, he realized something was seriously wrong.

Of course, the barrage of comments was a continuous frenzy.

"Are you there? Hurry up and get one of these too, my family really needs them."

"No, this is really going to work. I recently went for a checkup and the doctor said I have tonsillitis. If I just turn myself into one of these robots, I'll be fine, right?"

"No way, no way, does this mean CD Projekt Red's Cyberpunk 2077 hasn't even been released yet, and things like brain-computer interfaces, virtual worlds, and real-life cyber immortality are already happening in reality? Is there even any point in releasing this game?"

"Why are these four people not saying anything? Say something, I can't understand the English press conference."

"Stop mixing things up. You didn't even notice how hard Claude worked to create the subtitles for us. Speaking of which, this robot is really necessary. Let's draw one."

Bi Shi finally lost her temper: "Draw! Draw everyone! If anyone is seriously ill, contact us! I'll go ask and draw one!"

Chai Dao Niang Mu Mu quickly jumped out and forced Bi Shi to hurriedly read the closing remarks, ending the live stream.

Because the press conference was held in the morning, it quickly became a hot topic. Regardless of how the specific technology was described, in the eyes of most ordinary people, concepts like the id and ego are too abstract.

Behavioral logic, self-awareness, and even memory are all the same. In the eyes of ordinary people, they are all the same, so the term "immortality" immediately became a trending topic.

Because of Chen Yiran's Chinese identity, the atmosphere of ecstasy and national pride was extremely strong.

Yingxue gained the upper hand, and a small number of people began to pour cold water on the idea, saying that Aurora was a Singaporean company, while Chen Yiran started his business in the United States and did not gain much recognition.

Of course, some Chinese scholars have started to claim that this is all fake, that it's special effects, and that the Americans have already turned Chen Yiran against them; they are playing a big game!

However, most media outlets, as well as some large independent media outlets, have remained strangely silent, not even issuing press releases.

In September 2014, China's internet was undergoing tightening, the "Clean Internet Campaign" had just ended, and WeChat was checking a bunch of public accounts. Now, a Chinese person has developed this kind of mind-boggling technology for an American company, and many people are considering the government's attitude.

It wasn't until the afternoon that several official media outlets began publishing articles, objectively recounting the press conference, quoting interpretations from some domestic experts, warning of the ethical risks of wet components, and emphasizing the need to strengthen ethical norms and supervision in research. Ultimately, the article concluded by stressing the importance of building a technologically strong nation through independent innovation.

Then various technology media outlets began to speak out, and they were much bolder, citing various ideas from science fiction novels.

Only some influential figures and well-known content creators have started making related explanatory videos.

Many domestic tech companies are having a headache. To them, Chen Yiran is like the perfect child, always being compared to Aurora Mobile, no matter how well their company performs.

Huawei has gone crazy and started changing its marketing strategy. They just held a very grand launch event for the Mate 7 on September 4th, which was even held at the Berlin International Consumer Electronics Show. With features like fingerprint recognition and a metal body, the company is already promoting a high-end domestic narrative.

Taking advantage of the changing online climate, they're creating a narrative of "Made in China," claiming that buying Huawei is patriotic. Huawei is currently the best domestic company in terms of technology, not much different from Apple or Aurora Mobile!

Those advertisements now look like they're staged for a scam, they need to be taken down immediately.

Even the three most well-known internet companies in China, BAT (Baidu, Alibaba, and Tencent), have become somewhat clownish.

They were standing together in high spirits at Google's launch event, practically declaring war on Aurora.

Baidu and Tencent quietly removed their proposed Google collaboration projects from their radar, preparing to play dead.

Jack Ma in Hangzhou had it even worse; he couldn't even pretend to be dead.

Inside a conference room at Alibaba headquarters, Jack Ma slammed his fist on the table and exclaimed, "I don't believe it! What kind of 'wet component' is this? And yet it's already been developed? I met Chen Yiran a few years ago; he was just a kid. Now he's a genius like Newton?"

The others in the meeting room remained silent, letting Jack Ma vent his frustrations.

Jack Ma's outburst wasn't because he couldn't stand the aurora borealis; the main reason was that Alibaba was scheduled to list on the NYSE on September 19, with an expected offering price range of $60-$66 and a planned issuance of 320 million shares. With the greenshoe option (over-allotment option), the total fundraising would reach $25 billion, making it the largest IPO in history.

The previous collaboration with Google was also part of building hype for this launch event.

Now is Alibaba's most vulnerable time. Aurora's cutting-edge technology will definitely attract all the hot money to related fields. Alibaba is going to use e-commerce narratives to fight against cyber virtual space, AI robots, and even cyber immortality.

After venting for a while, Jack Ma said to his secretary, "Contact the previous organizations. The New York roadshow in three days is still on. But I hope they believe in Alibaba's future, not just e-commerce."

Alibaba can also have a place in the virtual world; experiencing the virtual world before buying something is a good entry point.

Our bottom line is to do our best to maintain the $2 billion fundraising target, surpassing Visa's $197 billion IPO to become the largest IPO in history.

After the meeting, Jack Ma looked at the speech in his hand. The speech had been revised many times, and he liked one sentence the most.

"Fifteen years ago, I came to the United States asking for $2 million, but I was rejected by 30 VCs. I'm back today, hoping to get more money back."

Jack Ma knew that he probably couldn't say those seemingly domineering words. He turned on his computer to check the situation on Twitter. Although the chances were slim, he still secretly prayed that the buzz in the United States would be less intense.

But to his disappointment, when he opened Twitter, he was met with a barrage of discussions. It seemed like there was no other news in the world, and no one was even talking about the football game.

Compared to China's visible efforts to curb the hype, the reaction in the United States was much more enthusiastic.

Flights to Hawaii are sold out, and jubilant crowds have even appeared in New York, Los Angeles, and other cities. Of course, there have also been spontaneous demonstrations demanding government intervention and a halt to the inappropriate research.

The entire United States was thrown into chaos because of the Aurora launch event.
