Chapter 338 The Unfathomable A Guang
Chapter 338 The Unfathomable A Guang
The message was posted in the group.
The group was quiet for a while.
Suddenly, everyone started to talk.
Lao Bai: “Yanjing’s bid for the Olympic Games was successful.”
Fang Chang: “T-wing 3G is too fast.”
Kuangfeng: “Are you a GG or a MM.”
Ye Shi: “Damn! Listen to me!”
MMP!
When I saw the opportunity to make a fortune, I thought of you first.
Ye Wei, who was holding the phone, didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He was angry and amused. He was about to type to explain it clearly when the message from Brother Fang Chang popped up again.
Fang Chang: “No, it’s just that we have been discussing it for a long time. You suddenly said this, which made me a little overwhelmed.”
Ye Wei: ? ?
? What?
We have been discussing it for a long time?
Ye Wei was stunned, and quickly slid his index finger up the screen. Sure enough, he saw the news that everyone was discussing the sudden surge in the price of silver coins.
Oh my god.
I was the one who connected the village to the Internet?
Ye Wei’s expression was a little subtle.
I wanted to show off with my brothers.
Now it’s embarrassing.
Fang Chang: “Let’s just say the conclusion. These buyers that popped up on the official website are probably from a big background.”
Quitting: “What do you mean? Tell me.”
Fang Chang: “Need I tell you? Would a normal person spend 100 million to buy a bunch of numbers?”
And it’s not just one person.
It’s a group of people who made an appointment to buy together!
Let’s not talk about other currencies.
In the RMB trading area alone, there are local tycoons who spend 100 million. The purchase order of 2 million silver coins is divided into 20, which uniformly fills the price range of 55~45.
Although the orders are anonymous and it is impossible to determine whether these purchase orders are placed by the same person, the amount cannot deceive people.
Placing an order on the silver coin trading platform is not just entering a number and it’s done.
It requires capital verification.
Garbage Picker Level 99: “Are these people crazy? (Dumbfounded)”
WC Real Mosquito: “Damn, why do I suspect that it’s the official game agent!”
Fang Chang: “This possibility cannot be ruled out, but it’s unlikely. Generally, large companies with a slightly larger number of players don’t bother to play these micro-manipulations, let alone this kind of game company with millions of followers, epoch-making technology, and equipment that can be lent to you for free.”
Quit Smoking: “Then what do you think they want to do.”
Fang Chang: “I guess it’s related to that auction.”
Ye Wei, staring at the phone screen, was stunned for a moment and typed.
”…Auction?”
Fang Chang didn’t explain, and directly sent A Guang’s post to the group.
And he was afraid that his good brothers wouldn’t see it, so he highlighted it for him.
Looking at the words circled in red, Ye Wei was stunned.
Ye Shi: “Damn… This is A Guang’s daily nonsense, right?!”
Isn’t it A Guang’s basic operation to talk nonsense in the post?
Old players know it, right?
How could there really be an auction…
And what is being auctioned?
An automatic banana feeding machine?
Fang Chang: “That’s what I said, but I’m afraid someone will take it seriously.”
Ye Wei poked at the screen and typed.
”How can this be taken seriously?”
Fang Chang: “For example, batteries.”
”Batteries?!”
Doesn’t A Guang work in a game company?
Ye Wei was a little confused.
Fang Chang: “Let me make an assumption. How many years do you think that helmet is ahead of our current 5G smartphones?”
Kuang Feng: “… There is no comparison at all.”
Fang Chang: “That’s right! There is no comparison at all. These two things don’t seem to belong to the same era, and that’s exactly the problem! A mysterious organization that has mastered mysterious technology suddenly announced that they are going to auction an unheard-of technology… If you happen to be a practitioner in the relevant field, would you be interested?”
Ye Wei, staring at the mobile phone screen, was stunned.
That said… it seems
to make some sense.
Although A Guang often joked about their company’s potato servers, normally, how could this “fully immersive virtual reality game” that can accommodate thousands of people online at the same time be run on a potato server?
Not to mention a potato server…
Tianhe-X may not be enough!
Maybe it’s the legendary quantum computer.
And it’s not the kind of experimental machine in the laboratory, but a supercomputer array composed of several quantum processors that has been developed and matured!
Ye Wei felt his head buzzing.
His imagination was not enough.
Garbage Picker Level 99: “Oh my god… The more you say, the more I feel that our game is made by aliens. (Shivering.jpg)” Quit
Smoking: “Why don’t we just tag A Guang and ask? (Nervous)”
Lao Bai: “A Guang won’t reply to your questions about the game, and his account hasn’t been online for a long time, so it’s useless for you to tag him.” Quit
Smoking: “But I still don’t understand, if they really need money… why bother, wouldn’t they make a lot of money directly by public testing?”
Pre-sale first, then rotten, isn’t that how the industry plays it?
On the contrary, it’s weird to do it behind closed doors like this!
Fang Chang: “Well, this is really weird. My guess is… A Guang may be telling the truth. Their server really can only allow a few thousand people to be online at the same time.”
The scrambled eggs with tomatoes, which had been silent, suddenly bubbled.
”If what A Guang said is true, then those dead programmers…”
The group was quiet for a while.
Lao Bai: “Well, stop telling ghost stories… We were discussing the price of silver coins, why did we get off topic to A Guang? Let’s not talk about A Guang first, let’s talk about your plans.”
Dreaming.
Ye Wei was most interested in this topic, typing with his mouth wide open.
”Buy a house! Is there any need to ask?”
He had thought it through.
Rooms in Jiangcheng are not expensive, and second-hand houses are even cheaper. While silver coins are so popular, he will cash out two or three million first, buy a house near the school, and then buy another one for his parents.
When the time comes, he will have one set of keys on the surface and another set behind the scenes. When someone asks him how much the property fee is, he will just take out two keys – “Schoolmate, which one are you asking about?”
Although it’s a bit rustic.
But it doesn’t matter! Pretending
to be cool is of course for your own pleasure.
Noticing the strange expression from his buddy next to him, Ye Wei immediately realized that he was getting carried away again. He coughed dryly and restrained his exaggerated smile.
Messages on the phone screen jumped up.
Quit smoking: “Rich man!”
Garbage picker level 99: “666!”
Fang Chang: “This is possible. It is reasonable to improve your life. But it involves a large amount of transfers, so you must pay attention to safety.”
Looking at the messages on the screen, Ye Wei was stunned.
”Pay attention to safety means…”
Fang Chang: “A few hundred thousand, or even one or two million, it doesn’t matter. No one will care about you if it’s a small matter. Some self-employed business owners can also reach this level of turnover. As long as you pay taxes legally and are not involved in criminal cases, the bank will at most call you to ask if you want to buy their products.”
”However, once the amount reaches tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, you have to carefully consider the transaction object and transaction method.”
Anonymity and security are always relative concepts, not absolute.
Abnormal personal account turnover will be listed as a key supervision target by the bank. If the money remitted is foreign exchange, it is not just a tax issue.
Not only that.
What worries Fang Chang the most is not the money issue, but the identity behind the financiers.
If it is an ordinary enterprise, it’s fine.
But I’m afraid that it’s not just the enterprise, but more troublesome things are involved.
Fang Chang even has a feeling.
In a place that he can’t see, another game is going on.
Even this game has been going on for several rounds. The two sides have reached a preliminary consensus in the game and tacitly maintained a seemingly stable balance.
WC is really a mosquito: “You say, if that thing is really that good, why don’t we join forces and directly collect some silver coins to bid for it. (smirk)”
Although it sounds a bit unbelievable, there is actually room for operation.
The boss of Niuma Brick Factory and the boss of Goblin Technology are both in this group, and there are also a large number of players who entered the game in the early version.
Although 1 million silver coins are a bit expensive, everyone can still get it together if they grit their teeth.
Not to mention 1 million, even if they get a few more people to form a partnership, it will be no problem to get 2 million.
The most important thing is that there are only so many chips on the silver coin trading platform. As long as they turn on the faucet, they can completely “bid”.
At that time, no matter how much off-site funds there are, they can only stare at the trading platform. As long as the official website does not disclose the identity of the buyer, they will not know who bought the item in the end.
Fang Chang: “I know what you want to do. I admit that this is one of the options, but I don’t want to be the first one to do it. What’s more, if you really give me some battery design or something, I will be confused. Playing games is my main job. I don’t have the energy or time to do anything else.”
Lao Bai: “Haha, what kind of useless person is this… But I have no right to say anything to you. My suggestion is the same as Fang Chang’s. Just take some silver coins to improve your life. Wasteland OL has just reached the closed beta test. It’s a big loss to cash out and leave now.”
WC is really a mosquito: “Hey, you guys with no ambitions… Starting a company and playing games don’t conflict!”
Bidding rigging is something that can’t be done by one person. Only when everyone plays together can you ensure that the chips are on your side.
To be honest, Mosquito is really interested in what A Guang is auctioning.
It’s not that I expect that thing to be “valuable”, but mainly because he is a bit impatient. What
if it’s a good thing?
It’s not too much to buy it and take a look, right?
If you really can’t use it, you can just add a zero and sell it.
The auction will start in three days, and someone on the official website has already offered 100 million to buy silver.
If you want it so much, just take the 100 million, and it will save Ah Guang from earning the handling fee.
But Mosquito thought about it and felt that what Fang Chang said made sense.
It is not a wise choice to rashly get involved in something you don’t understand.
”… Forget it, forget it, you have a point. I think this matter is a bit mysterious after careful consideration. It is better to observe it first.”
Fang Chang: “I am very happy that you think so. By the way, I have a suggestion.”
Quit smoking: “What suggestion?”
Fang Chang: “I remembered that Ye Shi mentioned buying a house just now. There will probably be many opportunities to issue silver coins in the future. Frequent personal transfers still have risks. Why don’t we just register a company, transfer from private to public, and then from public to private. Although this adds an extra procedure, it is convenient to pay taxes and is more compliant.”
Seeing the message on the screen, Ye Wei’s eyes lit up and he immediately typed to express his agreement.
”This is a great idea!”
Being a landlord doesn’t sound as cool as being a shareholder!
Of course, he didn’t do it entirely to show off.
I just think that it is too troublesome to explain my income as an individual and deal with the tax bureau.
He still has to go to school, move bricks in the wasteland, and have his own social life in reality.
As Fang Chang said, it is better to register a company directly and ask professionals to help them take care of these things.
Garbage Picker Level 99: “But what kind of company should I register?”
Fang Chang: “This is actually easy. Just fill it out according to the template of the general power leveling company and game studio. Some fill in information technology services, and some fill in e-commerce. There are many ways.”
Quit smoking: “Damn, can it be like this?”
Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes: “Ah, this… won’t there be a problem with the scope of business?”
Fang Chang: “It depends on the place. The implementation of the same regulations in different places is also different. We are more open here.”
”If you think it’s okay, it’s OK to let me handle it!”
Compared with how to spend the money earned, it is indeed a common cause that can arouse everyone’s enthusiasm for discussion.
The group started to discuss it.
Some are serious, and some are not.
The topic quickly shifted from the company’s business scope to the romantic affairs of online game literature in the old days.
Looking at the message on the phone screen, Ye Wei suddenly thought of something and typed,
”By the way, what should we call our company?”
Could he still be called a cow or a horse?
He even has to show off with his business card.
The group was quiet for a while.
Fang Chang: “Do I need to ask this? (squinting)”
Kuang Feng: “Indeed.”
Lao Bai: “Did this guy’s account get hacked?”
Quitting: “Hahaha!”
Ye Wei: ‘…’
Blanch!
…
Camp 101.
Ai Wen was flipping through the materials in his hand.
As the archive manager of the camp, his main job is to sort out and classify the knowledge given to them by the “mentors”, and select the appropriate parts from them and hand them over to the production department or the education department as materials or teaching materials to guide production.
This job is not easy.
The so-called science and technology are not a few pieces of paper, let alone a string of data.
It is the entire “system”.
In the distant era of the Human Union, hundreds of millions of researchers and related practitioners jointly supported the scientific research system of the Human Union.
Some people are responsible for collection, some are responsible for analysis, some are responsible for argumentation, some are responsible for pointing out the direction, some are responsible for questioning, some are responsible for summarizing, and some are responsible for management…
It is the flesh and blood composed of hundreds of millions of cells.
And the so-called technology is nothing more than the hair growing out of this flesh and blood.
As for now?
All they can do is to collect the giant’s sweat hair and wrap it around their bodies to keep warm.
Not to mention him…
even if it’s the legendary “Academy”, what about it?
Many of them are old popsicles from that era.
But even so, the legacy of the Human Union is still passing away in seconds, and all they can do is to preserve as much as possible within their ability.
Ivan believes that his work is meaningful. After all, as long as they are alive, there is hope. It
doesn’t matter if they can’t build a starship. They can start with the most basic screws.
However, as he gets older, this work is becoming more and more difficult for him.
In fact, this work should not have been done by him alone.
But the population of Camp 101 is too small, and many people have to take on multiple roles.
For example, he himself. He
is both an administrator of the archives department and a professor of the school. Occasionally, when the production department encounters a problem that cannot be solved, he has to trouble him, who knows a little bit about everything, to help.
It’s not that they haven’t thought about hiring more people, but ordinary wastelanders are useless. At most, they can help them cook, clean, or recycle some garbage…
After thinking for a while, Ivan stuffed the last stack of printed paper into the folder.
At this time, there was a knock on the door outside.
He knew who was coming by the sound, and he said.
”Please come in.”
The door opened.
The pleasant voice floated over with the wind.
”Master, are you looking for me?”
Standing at the door was Pai.
She was not tall, wearing a white coat with blue stripes, short light blonde hair hanging down her chin, her nose and eyebrows were a bit heroic, and her eyes were as blue as the sea… Although Ivan had never seen the sea.
Perhaps because her eyes and blue coat were the same color, she was loved by the pioneers of the shelter since she was very young. They even gave her a precious bionic chip, which gave her memory and computing ability far beyond ordinary people.
It is said that it is something that even black boxes cannot produce. Even before the war, it was precious. One less piece is used.
Thanks to this, she has already mastered many professional skills in mechanical engineering, microelectronics engineering, and astrophysics at the age of 16.
According to the standards of the academy, her professional level is enough to be a D-level researcher or explorer, and the gap between her and higher-level researchers is just experience.
After all, experience cannot be simply acquired through learning.
Listening to the lively voice, Ivan sighed softly, looked at the girl standing at the door, and corrected her in a serious manner.
”It’s the teacher.”
Pai pouted.
”Okay teacher!”
Why are you so serious?
But thinking of what the education affairs officer said to her before, she still tried to be patient.
This can make her look a little more stable, well-behaved, mature-especially more reliable!
Looking at Pai standing at the door, Ivan’s expression was a little complicated.
This child is his most proud student, not only smart, but also hardworking.
However, she also has many shortcomings.
For example, she is active, lacks awe, and can’t stand boring work…
The “treasure” given to her by the pioneers keeps her away from the troubles of thinking, but many qualities, including patience, need to be obtained in troubles.
Ivan couldn’t imagine her sitting at the table and sorting out the materials like he did.
It seems that the retirement age will be postponed again…
”The school should have told you that starting tomorrow, you will be a representative of the delegation to visit the capital of the New Alliance, Dawn City.”
Pai stood up straight and said with great enthusiasm.
”Don’t worry, teacher! I will definitely bring back a beautiful agreement!”
Ivan smiled and said.
”That’s not necessary. Your task is mainly to show friendship and then investigate the local cultural landscape and social environment… After you come back, I need you to write an investigation report.”
”Ah? Isn’t that just being a mascot…” Pai’s expression was a little lost.
When the education affairs officer told her about this, she thought she was asked to be a diplomat, representing everyone in Camp 101 and the pioneers of Shelter 101 to sign an agreement of equality, friendship and mutual assistance with the New Alliance and Shelter 404.
The result is just like this?
Although it is good to be able to go on a long journey, she wants to do more for everyone.
Especially more meaningful things.
Guessing what his student would say, Ivan explained in a gentle tone,
”Before communicating, the first thing to do is to understand. Don’t underestimate this job. Your investigation report can help us more accurately assess our neighbors, which is very critical.”
This sentence made Pai feel a little happier.
Especially the last sentence “very crucial”.
”Don’t worry, teacher! I promise to count all the screws in their settlement!”
Looking at Pai who was motivated again, Ivan nodded approvingly.
”You don’t have to do this, just talk to them politely… Go back and prepare, we will set off early tomorrow morning.”
”Yes, sir!” Pai happily raised his index finger to salute, and jumped away.
Listening to the joyful voices coming from outside the door, Ivan smiled and shook his head, and stuffed the folder on the table into the drawer.
He believed that Horn would not put all his hopes on her alone.
There were other people accompanying him.
Compared with the inspection itself, the attitude of respect and courtesy was actually more important.
To put it bluntly, his only expectation for her was to be a hard-working mascot.
Everyone has his own job.
It is enough to do your job well.
…
The next morning.
The camp of Dawn City.
On the originally bare land, there are now square container dormitories.
By the standards of Dawn City, the living conditions here are undoubtedly simple, but compared to the shacks built by most survivors themselves, it is still much better.
With the joint efforts of the construction team and local survivors, the nearby land has been almost leveled.
After solving the problem of temporary accommodation, the captain of the construction team, Rudy, did not rush to build a house, but led the construction team to dig tunnels on the ground.
These tunnels are not trenches, but sewers for the future Dawn City.
The rainy season will come in June, which will bring many challenges to the construction. The sooner the drainage problem is dealt with, the better. What
makes Chu Guang happy is that the workers of the construction team and the local survivors have established a deep friendship in their labor.
To sum it up in the words of Paradox players – [Mainstream Thought Attraction +50%, Stability +10]
Although there are still many days to come and anything can happen, this is undoubtedly a good start.
Standing at the door of the tent.
Chu Guang was directing Xiao Qi to operate the drone in the sky to peek at the screen.
At this time, Yin Fang walked over from the side.
”Here is the information you want.”
He took out a thumb-sized memory card from his pocket and handed it to Chu Guang.
Most of the carbon-based electronic materials of the New Alliance are made of parts removed from VM.
This memory card is the same.
Chu Guang took the card and stuffed it into his pocket.
”Thank you.”
”You’re welcome, but what do you want this thing for? We don’t use lithium batteries anymore.” Yin Fang looked at him with interest and asked curiously.
He remembered that it was probably before the Northern Expedition. At that time, in the browsing room on the B4 floor, Chu Guang pulled him to have a long talk, and then talked about lithium batteries.
Speaking of it, he felt strange at the time.
Although the demand for lithium ore in the prosperous era is not low, it is almost never used in batteries.
After all, compared with the “pure” and environmentally friendly hydrogen batteries, that kind of antique has almost no advantages. It can only be said that it was the most suitable choice for that era.
Later, the two chatted and talked about the history of science. He mentioned a membrane material that people used to limit the growth of lithium dendrites at that time. Then this guy became interested and insisted that he sort out the relevant literature and production process of that thing.
But then there was no follow-up on this matter.
After so long, he almost forgot about it.
Hearing Yin Fang’s curious question, Chu Guang did not give a detailed explanation, but just smiled faintly.
”In the right place, it just happens to be used for the right purpose. Just think of it as my personal interest.”
Hearing this perfunctory explanation, Yin Fang showed a helpless expression on his face.
What’s the difference between saying it and not saying it?
However, he didn’t really care.
Although the information before the prosperous era was a little unpopular, it was not complicated.
If he was asked to sort out the relevant information of Class C technology such as solid-state hydrogen batteries, even if the New Alliance was already able to produce it, this process would take 100 hours or even more.
But an old antique in history…
Even non-professional popular science books can find some clues, just follow the clues and look for it.
Anyway, there are so many “warriors” in the scientific expedition team, and they dare to rush into any ruins.
When he was an explorer himself, he didn’t dare to be so reckless.
It’s too difficult to train a professional researcher…
”If you don’t want to say it, forget it. I just asked casually anyway. But by the way, what did Camp 101 say to you? Has the reactor been settled?”
”Repairing the reactor is a systematic project. They need to understand me before deepening cooperation.”
”That’s right,” Yin Fang nodded thoughtfully, “After repairing it, we have to maintain the stable operation of the reactor… Those wastelanders you found can’t do this job.”
Chu Guang smiled and said.
”That’s for sure. Everyone has the limits of their abilities. For example, I… If you asked me to study that thing, I guess I would be blind.”
Yin Fang: “Really? I think you have a talent in this area.”
”Really?” Chu Guang said with interest.
I have this talent?
It was the first time he heard of it himself.
Yin Fang said with a confident tone: “Of course it’s true! Even in the academy, it’s impossible for everyone to engage in research work. There is a lack of managers who respect knowledge and researchers. I heard that it was not like this before.”
As he spoke, he sighed sadly, as if he was recalling the past that he couldn’t bear to look back on.
Chu Guang made a joke and comforted him.
”Maybe it’s because there are too many talented people in your place, so come to my place quickly. There are few people here, and even fewer smart people, so it’s easy to fool them.”
Yin Fang laughed.
”I almost believed it!”
Few smart people?
Easy to fool?
This is the funniest joke he heard today.
While he was talking, the VM on Chu Guang’s arm vibrated slightly. It was a message from Xiaoqi.
Chu Guang raised his arm and took a look, his eyebrows slightly raised.
”They are almost here.”
I didn’t expect them to be so fast.
I heard that the accompanying personnel include not only engineers, but also bodyguards from Shelter 101.
Yin Fang asked.
”They? Who?”
”The delegation from Camp 101.”
After turning off the screen, Chu Guang looked at Yin Fang and said casually.
”You are here too, let’s go together.”
