Activating the Omniscient System, I'm doomed!

Seeing the R&D staff return, Yu Guangming initially considered accepting their offer, but quickly shook his head and refused. He felt that these people, knowing about the acquisition, still insisted on leaving, which was disrespectful to him. To avoid creating a rift, he decided to blacklist all employees who chose to leave, never to be rehired.

Chen Xin and Lu Ming were very unwilling to give up, especially after learning that the 333 lines of code had achieved the ultimate precision control. They really wanted to see the source code, so they invited the chief R&D engineer, Lao Qian, for drinks, trying to extract more information, and ideally, take a screenshot of the source code.

Old Qian knew what they were thinking. After eating and drinking his fill, he casually uttered some meaningless information, wiped his mouth, and left. He even reported the matter to Guangming, who then helped the employees complete the confidentiality agreements.

[Chen Xin and Lu Ming uploaded his recording to industry forums, spreading rumors that Huaji Company had stolen ASML's program control technology, and also revealed the story of accurately grabbing a stone 20 meters away under a thousand-year-old cypress tree.]

ASML noticed this news and believed that even if it released the blueprints and source code, Tokyo University couldn't do it. If they could, it would definitely be stealing its technology. Therefore, ASML added Huaji Machinery Company to its list of companies under close observation.

[Forty-five days later, Huaji Company participated in a machinery exhibition, showcasing its first 21-meter-long micro-precision control device. They demonstrated how to grab a raw egg and simultaneously played a video of stone extraction from a thousand-year-old cypress tree. This new product instantly became a sensation, causing the entire exhibition to be extended by three days.]

Domestic mining, surveying, and forestry companies have placed orders for the equipment, with orders exceeding 11.3 units within a week. National geological survey departments and fire and disaster relief departments have also submitted procurement applications, hoping to acquire this equipment.

This new device attracted the attention of the entire mining industry. Many companies bought it and disassembled it for research. Seeing the ordinary hardware, they were puzzled. Then they noticed the optimized control program, which consisted of only 333 lines of code. Experts were astonished and studied it carefully for several days, but still couldn't understand the principle. They then replaced the hardware with their own devices and tried to port the code. The result was that the same hardware still couldn't be used, and the ported control program would rapidly expand within 15 seconds, eventually burning out the chips and components.

This control program also attracted the attention of C++, PLC, and Python programming experts, but the more they studied it, the more chaotic it became. Even if they copied it completely, it was unusable. Ultimately, it was recognized as a collaborative masterpiece by experts in different languages. Many people considered it their ultimate goal, attempting to learn other languages ​​or recruit experts in other languages, dreaming of compressing tens of thousands of lines of code into a hundred.

[After a week of research by two leading companies in the mining equipment industry without any results, they decided to invest 3 million yuan to acquire Huaji Equipment Company. Yu Guangming reported the situation to you and subsequently rejected the acquisition.]

Nine days after the exhibition ended, a reporter from the Machinery Industry News scheduled an interview. To gain exposure, Yu Guangming arranged for the marketing manager to conduct the interview. Once published, the interview attracted significant attention from several key industry players who attempted to uncover the core principles. Unfortunately, the marketing manager rambled on throughout.

[Two weeks after the exhibition ended, three domestic lithography machine manufacturers—Guowei, Zhongji, and Weijing—visited us, intending to purchase a license for this program control technology. They believed that this program optimization technology could improve the precision of domestic lithography machines by 30%. Yu Guangming was undecided and consulted you before agreeing to the license, with an annual technology fee of 4 million yuan.]

After reading the interview, Chen Xin and Lu Ming were extremely frustrated and regretful, especially after seeing their former R&D colleagues receive huge bonuses. They felt they had been cheated and sent another whistleblower email to ASML, firmly believing that Huaji Company had stolen foreign technology.

ASML has completed its disassembly and research. After reviewing the deciphered code, they were equally astonished. They hadn't expected that such precise control and extreme signal interference could be achieved solely through program optimization. They immediately assigned experts to study the code, but they felt their minds couldn't keep up. They had never seen such meticulously crafted, interconnected code; every character played a crucial role, and even changing a single parameter would cause an error.

After two weeks of repeated research, ASML executives decided to report to the Elite Council. The council's geniuses, after studying the program, collectively concluded that it was not written by an ordinary person, but by a specially trained individual with enhanced mental abilities.

[Therefore, the Elite Association sent the document to a person with a level 0.8 special physique who had undergone brain enhancement. The person quickly understood it, explaining that it involved multiple languages ​​and logic layers, requiring exceptional memory, computational power, and logical reasoning ability to write the program. He stated that he could only understand it, but could not execute it, nor could he copy it for use on other devices, because even a slight change to each character would alter the entire logical chain, which he couldn't control.]

The geniuses at the Gathering of Heroes were very interested in the developer of this program, so they sent a membership invitation to Huaji Company, specifying that only the program developer should join. They also said that a test would be given upon joining. Yu Guangming reported the situation to you, but after being rejected, he threw away the invitation.

[The Elite Association, not expecting a rejection, had ASML submit an application to lift the customs blockade, hoping to sell lithography machines to Dongda University and simultaneously purchase a technology license for the control program from Huaji Equipment Company. They planned to use this program to further improve the precision of their equipment and, incidentally, make contact with the program's developers. However, this application was rejected by the local authorities, and the Elite Association began its initial confrontation with the local departments.]

[When Jiangcheng's leadership team visited Huaji Company, Yu Guangming reported to you, hoping you could also get some exposure. After you declined, he admired your understated talent but felt a little regretful that he couldn't share the limelight with you, a major shareholder.]

[2. This machinery company will bring you trillions of yuan in long-term profits, and in the short term, you can also obtain 11.6 billion yuan in funds such as sales dividends and technology licensing.]

3. It didn't cause you any actual trouble.

"Mining, lithography machines, programming—several industries have joined the research; it's too exaggerated."

Roy was also surprised by this.

He also found it reasonable, because he developed this program code using his Level 3 brainpower and the Omniscient System.

"No wonder Lao Qian couldn't understand even after I explained it to him several times at the celebration banquet. It turns out, ordinary people simply can't grasp this logic."

It's like trying to explain calculus to a primary school student who only knows the multiplication table; no matter how clearly and simply you explain it, the student won't understand.

Luo Yi pondered to himself, realizing that the key to the development of technology and materials was that ordinary people's brainpower was insufficient; even geniuses could only guess a little bit.

To drive significant progress in the entire supply chain, these individuals must break through genetic barriers, enhance their mental abilities, and achieve Level 1 or even Level 2 special physical attributes.

An invitation to the Gathering of Heroes?

Roy then took notice of the organization.

I immediately asked the Omniscient System.

It turns out that this is a place where geniuses gather.

Genius is the ticket to that place.

Many of the geniuses and elites in various industries are members of the Elite Gathering.

I won't go into the finance, physics, and technology sections.

Take the medical field as an example.

The Gathering of Heroes brought together a group of top medical doctors who were also researching cancer cell mutations in individuals with special constitutions. They even experimented with various types of blood, viruses, races, and organisms. After more than a decade of testing, they finally enabled a Black man to achieve a Level 3 constitution, which enhanced his brain intelligence.

"This kind of small workshop is not worth mentioning."

Seeing that they only had a level 3 physique, Luo Yi shook his head and stopped paying attention.

What a gathering place for geniuses! It's just a group of people who control the most resources.

He then took out his phone and assigned a task to the AI ​​program XY:

"Please take over my phone, SMS, WeChat and other communication tools. If anyone from Huaji Company contacts me to discuss technology licensing, I will agree to let them do it and propose a technology licensing fee of 4 million yuan per year."

"At the same time, I will create a WeChat work group. If the R&D personnel of Huaji Company ask technical questions, please act as the R&D manager and provide them with easy-to-understand answers."

"If you're still unsure, transfer the call to me."

"Received!" XY automatically created the task and is now waiting for the corresponding conditions to be triggered.

Luo Yi simply used it as an intelligent assistant, entrusting it with some communication, property management, and company affairs.

"We've got the water-soaked ore sorted out. Now all that's left is to exchange it for biological blood essence and the crocodile whale from the National Special Bureau."

Luo Yi lay in bed and pondered for a while, deciding to go directly to the National Special Bureau tomorrow to avoid the blood essence inventory being exchanged out.
