Activating the Omniscient System, I'm doomed!

The entire program technology for the robotic arm consists of only 333 lines of code.

In the R&D workshop, a dozen engineers looked at each other, and they could see surprise on each other's faces.

As the chief engineer, Lao Qian quickly thought of a possibility and reminded him:

"Check if he called a library. These 333 lines of code are like a directory; the rest of the code is in the library."

The group stopped their discussion and went to their computers, scanning each label.

Soon, a young engineer spoke up:

"It did call the library, but not much, and when I looked inside, the library only had a few dozen lines of code."

The other engineers went over to take a look, and their brows furrowed even deeper.

Old Qian opened seven libraries in a row, and seeing that each one contained only a few dozen lines of code, his expression grew increasingly shocked. Finally, he shook his head and sighed:

"He must have found a top international team to work together to write the control program, which is why multiple programming languages ​​are used and interact with each other."

"Alright, alright, stop studying it. With our level of expertise, it's hard for us to understand. From now on, we can only rely on President Ji to grant us access to the technology."

Upon hearing this, several people complained, "If we rely on the new shareholders' technology, then we've all become apprentices. Is this still considered research and development? All our knowledge is useless."

"Isn't it possible to choose whether to stay or leave? I might as well take the severance pay and retire at a big company."

Several engineers who considered themselves shrewd complained a few times, then put down their things and left the workshop.

"Chief Engineer Qian, what do you think?" The young engineer saw Old Qian working silently and quickly came over to ask.

Old Qian shook his head: "You can't keep someone who was planning to leave anyway."

"But... once President Ji replaces all the machines with his control program, then we can only work on the hardware; we don't understand software."

Old Qian glanced at him and said, "Isn't this a perfect opportunity to learn new technologies? Others might want to learn, but they might not have this chance."

"Xiao Chen, if you could learn even a fraction of President Ji's control program, you'd be in a very good position."

The young engineer nodded thoughtfully, "That's true. If I could compress tens of thousands of lines of code into a few hundred, I could get a high salary anywhere."

Most of the people in the R&D workshop stayed behind, many wanting to see if the control of the 20-meter robotic arm could be achieved.

……

"Mr. Yu, the 100 robotic arms have been produced according to the requirements."

The following morning, as Luo Yigang sat down in the general manager's office, a workshop director gave a report.

He spent the night in the factory dormitory last night. To be precise, the factory is one of his properties, so he should have an office and a dormitory there.

Yu Guangming was boiling water to make tea when he heard the workshop director's report. He put down the teapot and said, "General Manager Ji, shall we... go take a look?"

"Okay." Luo Yi was fairly satisfied with the production efficiency, since it involved recutting the materials and essentially making it from scratch.

The group arrived at the R&D workshop and first noticed the 100 robotic arms that had just been delivered. Although they wouldn't need that many, they would need some spares.

Then it was noticed that there were more than ten engineers, but now only 7 remain.

Yu Guangming found Lao Qian and quietly asked him why. He then learned that they had also registered for layoffs. He reported this to Luo Yi with a slight sense of regret.

Luo Yi remained calm, actually believing that this round of screening was a good thing, as it could filter out some people who were eager for quick success and instant benefits.

"Mr. Ji, are these 40 robotic arms also using the same control program as yesterday?"

Old Qian walked over and asked, showing more respect than yesterday, realizing that this investor's skills were superior to his own.

Luo Yi nodded: "Yes, it's the same system as yesterday. My team and I have only developed this one system, which can be adapted to 1 to 50 robotic arms."

"We'll tie 42 sections this time, which is quite a lot of work, so we need everyone's help. You should all remember the procedures I outlined yesterday, right?"

"I've remembered them all. Yesterday afternoon, we also bound several new machines. We've already gained experience with that."

After saying this with a smile, Lao Qian waved to signal everyone to get to work.

Seeing that they all knew how to do it, Luo Yi felt much more relaxed and only had to take charge of the high-difficulty compatibility control and optimization.

Old Qian, being a former chief engineer, stayed by his side the whole time and secretly learned a lot of techniques.

It could even be said that, apart from Luo Yi, he was the most skilled at using this control program in the entire factory.

They were busy like this until 3 p.m., when Yu Guangming brought over a bunch of afternoon tea.

Upon entering the R&D workshop, he saw the 21-meter-long, slender robotic arm and exclaimed excitedly, "President Ji, is it fully adapted?"

Luo Yi took off his gloves and nodded, "Once they've assembled all the parts, we can test the results."

"A 21-meter robotic arm, the longest in the industry is only 8 meters, this breaks the record."

Yu Guangming walked over and looked him up and down, then went to the worktable and pressed a few buttons, appearing very happy.

"Mr. Ji, all components are assembled and the control program is configured. We can begin testing." Old Qian did a final check and then instructed the young engineer:

"Xiao Chen, go and put the eggs on the testing table."

Finally, it was time to test the 20-meter robotic arm. Luo Yi was also invigorated. Although he knew the result through the omniscient system, he had not seen the actual object.

He personally walked to the worktable, pressed a few buttons, and directly operated the robotic arm to grab the raw eggs on the table.

Click~ Click~

The robotic arms are linked together like chains. Upon receiving a command, each segment will make a small movement until the end gripper reaches the egg.

Gulp... All seven engineers on site swallowed hard, standing to the side with expectant faces.

Click~ Click~

The robotic arm slowly moved down, opened its gripper to cover the egg, and then slowly tightened like fingers.

"It didn't break!" Yu Guangming was standing right next to him. He saw the gripper slowly lift the egg and immediately reported it loudly. He was also shocked by the precision of the gripper.

Although it was 21 meters away, with Luo Yi's eyesight, he could easily see the egg clearly. He skillfully operated his hands, moved the robotic arm to the right, and slowly placed the egg on the table.

The test is complete; the raw egg did not break throughout the entire process.

It has extremely high precision control and is very stable.

Luo Yi breathed a sigh of relief, satisfied with his first mechanical masterpiece and confident that he could extract the water-soaked ore.

"Great! This level of precision is truly beyond our expectations! Even if we can't insert it into the soil to retrieve samples, we can still explore other business markets, such as fire and disaster relief."

Yu Guangming clapped his hands in approval and even figured out who to sell it to, no longer expecting to stick it into the soil to retrieve it.

"It's hard to imagine that this level of control precision was achieved solely through program optimization. It's 21 meters long!" Old Qian picked up the egg to examine it and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement. Unfortunately, he couldn't understand the code logic for the time being, and he would have to ask President Ji for advice another day.

The other engineers were also excited, and their existing knowledge base was even shaken.

Previously, they believed that high precision required high-end hardware, but now, they have optimized the precision to the extreme through control programs.

Just like Apple's iOS mobile phone system, even though the camera configuration is lower, the shooting effect is far superior to that of its competitors. This is due to system program optimization, which makes the best use of resources.

In an instant, the thought of leaving the company that had been lingering in the minds of several people completely vanished, replaced by a desire for new technologies.

"I almost forgot about the acquisition contract." Just as Yu Guangming was about to celebrate, he suddenly remembered that the acquisition contract hadn't been signed. He was so startled that he quickly took out his phone to urge, "Attorney Lin, print out the contract immediately and stamp it with the company seal."

"Mr. Yu, there are still some terms we are verifying."

Yu Guangming lowered his voice and said, "Stop checking, just stamp it quickly. If this acquisition falls through, I'll kill myself."

After saying that, he walked up to Luo Yi. "President Ji, I've already signed the acquisition contract. When will you sign it? I'll have someone bring it over."

"No rush, let's talk about it after the test is finished." Luo Yi was unaware of his thoughts at this moment.

Yu Guangming was anxious, afraid that he would change his mind and not buy it. He forced a smile and said, "Aren't the eggs intact? This test result is sufficient. The next step is to optimize it further and then start small-batch production."

"The eggs were just for testing the control precision; we haven't tested for signal interference after they were put into the soil," Luo Yi said.

Yu Guangming beckoned to Lao Qian and suggested, "We need to go outside to test the soil to prevent damage. You should record the data first."

Old Qian asked, "Where should we test it?"

Yu Guangming blurted out, "Isn't there a park next to the dormitory building? Let's try it there. The depth doesn't necessarily have to reach 21 meters."

Luo Yi seized the opportunity to guide the discussion: "Now that we've set a goal, we need to test it under extreme conditions. If problems arise, we can optimize it."

"So forget about parks. Find a forest with unique features, one with intertwined tree roots and a challenging environment. Test everything in it and record the test videos."

Upon hearing this, Old Qian, who was standing nearby, casually remarked, "To meet these requirements, I do have a good place to go."

Luo Yi turned to look at him. "Where?"

"There's a thousand-year-old cypress tree on Zhouzhuang Mountain. This place is very unique, and the work is extremely difficult. If we could dig something up there, this test video would be the best promotional video for the company!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Guangming smiled and nodded, "This place is indeed suitable, and it's not far away, only about 30 kilometers. We'll start filming the video from the transportation stage."

"That sounds good indeed." Luo Yi smiled and nodded. "Then let's set off. When recording the video, don't include the senior executives and the chief engineer."

After saying that, he stepped aside to have afternoon tea.

His original goal for this trip was to dig for water-soaked ore from under the ancient trees of Zhouzhuang Mountain.
