Digital Kingdom

On November 9, 2016, FBI director Chris Wray warned against buying magic mirror products.On December 22, Magic Mirror lost the support of retailer Best Buy;

On January 2, 2017, the U.S. Department of Defense banned the use of digital conglomerates’ artificial intelligence algorithms on US military bases; on February 7, the US Congress called on Google to stop cooperating with digital conglomerates; on March 3, a report recommended *** use The executive order banned the sales of the digital group cloud service platform "Smart Nation" in the United States; on March 4, the senator introduced a bipartisan bill to resolve concerns about the digital group company.

"The rain is about to come and the wind is all over the building," Zhao Ziming closed the file, leaning on the sofa and closing his eyes to rest.

Although it has been low-key in every possible way, but with the big killer of artificial intelligence in hand, mastering the key to the new era, the faint Empire of Tomorrow, even if it wants to be low-key, it can't be low-key.

Every move, everyone's attention.

Not to mention, the development of artificial intelligence in the East will inevitably pose a threat to the national security of the "cosmic center", and being blacklisted is also the meaning of the question.

From a company perspective, the group has been established in just one year and has been operating in more than 100 countries and regions around the world. It has directly crossed the two stages of sales globalization and operation globalization, and entered the globalization of the research and development system.

Last year, the Digital Group built more than 50 research institutes around the world. Although it is very exaggerated, with the support of Fuxi Intelligence, it has completed the road of others for ten years in one year.

Of course, the more than 50 research institutes do not go fast and seek perfection.Not to mention that every one is carefully selected, and the appearance of the king is also based on local conditions and built along the local scientific research institutes and human resources.

For example, the Materials Research Institute is in Japan, the Microwave Research Institute is in Milan, the Mathematics Research Institute is in Russia and France, and so on.

Zhao Ziming has his own knowledge of global human resources. For example, he believes that Indians are best at negotiation, so he hires many Indians to negotiate. Russians are good at math, so a lot of algorithm tasks are done in Russia.

Then, all research and development results are shared globally.

As of today, the Digital Group employs more than 200 mathematicians, more than 300 physicists and more than 60 chemists all over the world. These people are distributed all over the world.

Even so, he is still dissatisfied. The recruitment budget for local research institutes has doubled last year. He hopes that the number of recruits can be doubled to achieve the first short-term goal: 20,000 people do basic research and are responsible for turning money into Knowledge; 80,000 engineers are responsible for turning knowledge into money.

In order to achieve this goal, the Digital Group has implemented an exaggerated incentive policy for the introduction of talents. Every time employees of the company introduce an employee, they can get a large amount of financial reward.

Sometimes he even went off the court in person, or on the phone or on the other side, sincere and enthusiastic, making people feel like spring breeze.

Some of the brain neuroscientists whom Dream had fancyed before, Zhao Ziming used public tools for private use, and entrusted his capable arms Wang Tianbao and Shen Yiyi to come forward and visit the cottage.

It can be called a failure to achieve the goal, and vowed not to give up.

In this process, the previously established Overseas Chinese Professional and Technical Managers Association played a huge role. Zhao Ziming suspects that this time he was targeted by the United States. It is most likely the cause of the association.

Through the association, a large number of opportunities for technological transformation have been incorporated into the digital group, such as the tumor treatment technology of Yangtze River scholar Professor He Youwen, the technology of tumor detection imaging equipment of Professor Shen Xiling, the acoustic tweezers of Professor Huang Jun, and Professor Zhou Pei The next generation of non-resistant antibiotic technology, Dr. Tao Yang uses artificial intelligence for agricultural products processing, Professor Hu Liangbing’s transparent wood and plastic bag performance...

Although these technologies do not involve national security and no investors can be found abroad, in any case, seeing the technology outflow, Americans have very complicated feelings in their hearts.

In addition to relying on the "person-person" connection, Fuxi Intelligence searches global intelligence every day, including all publicly published papers, conjectures, etc., from which it discovers the remains of the sea and collects global elites.

This work in the past relied entirely on luck, because many scientific discoveries did not attract public attention when they were first born, and even its owner could not predict its future.

It is often an inadvertent development, emitting a dazzling light. With the help of Fuxi's intelligence, any conjecture and any breakthrough will be demonstrated.

The probability of talent being buried has dropped to infinitely low.

Blue Brain Lab, last year I saw a master, an ordinary student in a key university, usually has no bright performance, just because some opinions on "edge computing" have been published on a niche forum, and Fuxi Intelligence is eyeing .

Through many exchanges, he finally determined the potential of the other party. This potential may not even be clear to him, let alone the outside world. When the Digital Group came to the door, the school and the tutors were all confused, and they reviewed the student information overnight, but did not find it. Any little bit is absolutely worthy of the words "innocent".

I thought it was a good deal, but I didn't expect it to be rejected by the other party. The digital group was in full swing at the time. Not to mention a graduate student. There were too many experts from Beiqing, such as doctors, turtles, and young scholars.

Not to mention, the Digital Group specially went to this person's house to invite him and provided him with an annual salary of one million yuan, but he did not expect that the other party would refuse to work because he wanted to study for a Ph.

In the end, Zhao Ziming decided to hire this person as a consultant for $200,000 a year. The news came out and there was an uproar, because many recruited PhDs did not have that much annual salary.

As a result, during the Spring Festival, the new doctor helped Blue Brain Lab solve a key problem, combining "edge computing" and "fog computing" to add a new network architecture to the existing Internet for the future The evolution of CDN provides direction and proves its strength.

Digital Group's investment in talents is not only reflected in the high salary, but also meets all its requirements as much as possible. There was an Irish scientist who did not want to leave his hometown, so the company had to open a research institute for him in his hometown.

The handwriting is so big that even Irish government officials are surprised: "Why is your institute not located in a big city? Why is it placed in such a partial place?"

It is this subtle and undercurrent turbulent development that finally attracted the attention of the giants. Since last year, the US government has begun to take frequent actions against digital conglomerates and magic mirror products.

In Zhao Ziming's view, this is already a very obvious signal, and the next step may be more severe, and even direct sanctions are not impossible.

However, all the people in the group do not have this awareness. Most people are immersed in the big development. Some executives even proposed to establish business globalization and business globalization within this year, and establish logistics centers in Mexico and Romania, and establish a financial center in Mauritius. , To establish a financial settlement center in the Netherlands and a risk control center in the United Kingdom to realize the globalization of production and supply chain management, and the sales of standard and non-standard products can be well managed...

Of course, this is correct, because Zhao Ziming said at the company's internal meetings more than once, "His lifelong goal is to create a world-class company. If you work hard, maybe a world-class company will come out. If you stop at this time, play golf. , Bubble it. Looking back after five years, the opportunity may be gone. We must seize the opportunity given by this era and make the achievements of the world."

Many people are convinced, and various radical strategies have been put forward. Together with the time, location, people and possessions of the digital group, the word "digital" is no longer just a company, but a sturdy king.

The fields they have entered, from business management, movies, to finance, technology, and state-owned enterprises are afraid.The Digital Building is developing conferences almost every day. There are so many employees that they can’t even sit down in Block B of the headquarters, and many departments have to move.

However, the more this time, the more leaders must remain calm and not be dazzled by victory. I don't know how many people fell on the eve of dawn.

Sometimes, many things change overnight.

With Zhao Ziming's self-confidence, facing the world's largest power, there is also a huge pressure. Unless he gives up the discovery, the conflict will not ease, but will only become more intense.

When it comes to hand-to-hand combat, the friction between the two sides is not limited to the commercial field, and even personal safety will become a problem. Rogue countries have their own gangsters, and any means that can be conceived can happen.

Kidnapping, assassination, freezing, wanted...

However, until now, he has no room to retreat, not to mention his own wishes, and the government will not let him retreat without a fight. After all, with the size of the digital group, it can still attract some firepower and rise for the great power Make your own contribution.

"Vice President Xu, please come to my office."

Zhao Ziming contacted Xu Tianrui one by one. At this time, he was probably the most suitable microphone.

"Mr. Zhao."

The company's leadership was basically concentrated on the first floor, and Xu Tianrui, who was notified, knocked on the door soon and came in.

"Look at this," Zhao Ziming handed him the document.

Xu Tianrui glanced quickly and couldn't help but said, "The person who came is unkind."

Zhao Ziming nodded. Among the vice presidents, perhaps Lao Xu has the highest political sensitivity. After all, his resume is there. The decades of official life are not for nothing.

"Maybe this day will happen sooner or later."

Xu Tianrui silently said that since the "Shanghai Conference", there is no possibility of peace between the two.

Zhao Ziming brought up the spirit, "Where to work hard, we still have to work hard, but the company must also be prepared with both hands."

"it is good."

"From now on, the Strategy Department will simulate the worst case and put forward relevant plans. The group's secondary departments and all subsidiaries will begin to investigate their respective businesses and conduct risk assessments so that ZTE's incidents cannot happen to us."

"Okay, Mr. Zhao."

Zhao Ziming frowned, "Don't take it lightly. Think about it. As a world-renowned company, ZTE maintains good cooperative relations with many American suppliers, provides nearly 130,000 high-tech jobs across the United States, and is close to Qualcomm and Intel. Cooperation, even so, it is difficult to escape sanctions. We should not be lucky and must be prepared for battle."

"Yes."

Digital Group's business in the United States is minimal. Instead, various products continue to be dumped. It can be said that there are few friends and enemies everywhere. Once an accident occurs, the bad situation can be imagined.

Zhao Ziming sighed, "The United States has proposed a fine of 1 billion U.S. dollars and a security deposit of 400 million U.S. dollars. I feel ashamed to think about it. In the face of a company, we have various ways to deal with it. If you don’t fight back, you won’t fight back.

Xu Tianrui did not speak,

He didn’t feel too much in his heart. Essentially speaking, he was an official rather than a businessman. He suffered more weaknesses. Besides, let’s not talk about a company. Even if a country faces the strongest hegemon on the ground, I can't do anything, at most I have a mouthful.

"Do you have anything to add?"

Zhao Ziming looked at him, and there seemed to be inexplicable and unclear expressions in his eyes. Xu Tianrui's mind jumped, and he instantly reacted, scolding himself for being confused. Zhao Ziming asked him to come over, not to do anything in the company, but to pass. He expressed his attitude to the country.

Everyone is responsible for fighting against American emperor!

If something happens, our Digital Group promises to be the first to go on the horse and never retreat, but the emperor does not send hungry soldiers. The rear must ensure safety and not let the soldiers on the front line sad.

"Made, who said that Zhao Ziming is a political novice, this kind of skill is used by leveraging his strength," Xu Tianrui cursed secretly in his heart.

As a ministerial member, he naturally knows a lot of inside information. As artificial intelligence has shown amazing capabilities in many fields, the future has arrived at an unstoppable pace.

A voice slowly sounded, artificial intelligence, the country's heavier weapon, cannot be controlled by one person. Someone proposed to redistribute shares in the Digital Group.

Whether this kind of news is true or not, if it can reach people's ears, it shows that there is a force behind the scenes. It does not matter whether it is a temptation or a distortion.

At this time, the wisdom and courage of the helm is especially tested, whether there is wisdom to dance on the tip of a knife, and whether there is courage to resist.

As the saying goes, if you seek peace through struggle, you live in peace. If you can't mix up this evil spirit, it might grow bigger and bigger, and eventually you won't be able to deal with it.

And Zhao Ziming can use the United States to suppress this situation to resolve internal contradictions. After all, there is such a common enemy, and internal struggles should be eased as much as possible.

Fighting in the nest is never necessary.General knowledge is the key.

"No, Mr. Zhao, what you said is right, we must be ready to fight." Xu Tianrui was silent on his face, pretending that he didn't understand anything.

Instead, Zhao Ziming smiled, "Okay, you go back and ask them to draft the relevant notice, and go down today. The sooner you prepare, the better, so that you won't be rushing in the end."

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

Xu Tianrui saw that the boss had no other orders, and turned around to go out.

Zhao Ziming looked at his back and smiled.
