"One master bedroom, one bedroom, one gaming room, and the rest are all storage rooms." Chen Yiyang walked around his villa, feeling very satisfied.
The accountant indeed renovated this villa according to his ideas.
"By the way, why is this bedroom decorated so femininely?" Chen Yiyang opened the bedroom door, looking at the feminine decor inside.
"Boss, didn't you say there was a room in this villa for me to live in?" The accountant stared wide-eyed at Chen Yiyang.
Just waiting for Chen Yiyang to say he was joking back then, and then she would protest by picking up her metal leg.
"Didn't I say it was the maid's room?" Chen Yiyang joked.
"Boss, if you make me live in the maid's room, I'll eat snail noodles in there every day!"
The accountant used this tactic, and Chen Yiyang immediately conceded.
He didn't want his collection, after being stored here for years and then displayed, to be asked why it smelled like snail noodles.
After spending a night in the villa.
The next day, Chen Yiyang picked up a small bargain item, initially planning to rest for a day.
Yang Chengru called him, inviting him over to talk.
Chen Yiyang arrived at Yang Chengru's apartment and casually poured himself a glass of water.
"Stock up on some cola in the apartment, why is it all plain water?"
"If I usually drink cola, wouldn't people think I'm not very steady?" Yang Chengru was somewhat worried.
"Maybe people will think you're very approachable. Look at the person who became the United States president again, eating hamburgers and drinking cola every day."
"Alright then." Yang Chengru nodded, "I'll get some next time."
"By the way, what did you need me for?" Chen Yiyang asked.
"There's a high-tech company in Lin'an looking for investment recently. Why don't you check if it's reliable?"
"Did they pull strings to reach you?" Chen Yiyang asked curiously.
"No, I met their CEO at a conference and he seemed like a good person. I also learned a bit about their current products, which seemed promising."
"What products?" Chen Yiyang was very curious about the company that Yang Chengru thought highly of.
"AI robots," Yang Chengru said, "Do you know about Boston Dynamics' robot dogs? This company is also making those.
But according to their CEO, Boston Dynamics uses hydraulic technology while they use electric drive technology. He said Boston's hydraulic technology has no future."
The tone was quite bold.
Chen Yiyang thought that Boston Dynamics is now considered the most famous robot dog company online, how could someone criticize their technology strategy?
Chen Yiyang wasn't very knowledgeable in high-tech.
But seemingly, he had invested in an AI company before.
So Chen Yiyang took out his phone and found the owner of the AI big model company he had previously invested in, Wen Liangfeng.
"Mr. Chen, what brings you to call me? We haven't even spent all your money yet." Wen Liangfeng joked as he began.
It seemed like their recent research was progressing well.
"Do you have any research on AI robots?" Chen Yiyang asked Wen Liangfeng.
"It's not our specialty, this is crossing fields. Have you encountered any problems?" Wen Liangfeng asked curiously.
"Someone said Boston Dynamics' robots use hydraulic technology that's inferior to electric drive technology, so I thought I'd ask someone."
"We do have an enthusiast in this area at the company, I'll ask him." After saying this, Wen Liangfeng temporarily hung up the phone.
Ten minutes later, Wen Liangfeng called back, but the person on the other end was different.
"Hello Mr. Chen." After a brief self-introduction, the person immediately started speaking, "Boston Dynamics uses a hydraulic system and 3D-printed metal skeletons, allowing hydraulic lines to be integrated within the skeleton.
Doing so allows the actuators to have very fast response times, low inertia, high power density, and high torque density. However, the downside is that the hardware is very expensive, and maintenance and repairs are extremely difficult.
Whether for military or civilian use, this technology cannot be widely adopted by the public and is not suitable for mass production."
Hearing this, Chen Yiyang recalled the Mingkuai Typewriter he had purchased before.
The Mingkuai Typewriter didn't become popular at the time for this very reason.
A technology that can eventually be applied and promoted must have low costs and easy maintenance.
Otherwise, it's just an expensive toy.
"So, does that mean Boston Dynamics' technology is destined to be phased out?"
"It's already starting to be phased out."
The person on the other end straightforwardly said, "Whether it's bipedal or quadrupedal robots, they aren't as efficient as wheeled robots and are generally used in special terrains. If they are very difficult to repair and maintain, then they have no practicality at all.
Personally, I believe electric drive will certainly become the mainstream technology solution for AI robots in the future, because AI robots driven by electric power, especially quadrupedal robot dogs, have significant military advantages.
They are affordable, and maintenance and repairs are convenient, allowing them to replace soldiers in complex terrains to perform tasks at critical moments. If such robot dogs appear in a war, they will undoubtedly receive a large number of orders.
With orders, the company can survive, technology can be updated, and we can have a future."
Chen Yiyang could tell this guy was indeed an expert in this field.
But he wondered why he went into AI big models.
After chatting with the other party, Chen Yiyang hung up the phone.
"Let's go, let's visit them and see what they have to say.
"Alright, let's go." Yang Chengru stood up and accompanied Chen Yiyang to the AI robot manufacturing company's office building.
"Hello, District Chief Yang." This AI robot manufacturing company was named Yushu Technology, and the boss was named Wang Xingxing.
Yang Chengru only called when they were downstairs.
The other party directly came downstairs to greet them.
"My name is Chen Yiyang." Chen Yiyang shook hands with the other party and introduced himself.
"I've heard of your name too." Wang Xingxing looked at Chen Yiyang in surprise as they shook hands.
Because he's usually busy with work, he occasionally watches the news channel.
He really had heard the name Chen Yiyang, but it was in the entertainment section.
A bunch of entertainment circle big Vs had nothing better to do daily than analyze what background and identity Chen Yiyang had.
So, Wang Xingxing's impression of Chen Yiyang was that of a top-tier second-generation in the entertainment circle with extensive connections.
Changing the male lead of someone else's TV drama, replacing the female lead in someone else's movie, forcefully pushing his talentless contract artists into the top three of talent shows.
Previously, at the Lin'an City Government's technology enterprise development conference, Wang Xingxing had conversed with Yang Chengru for quite a while, hoping Chengru would introduce some reliable investors to him.
However, he didn't expect Yang Chengru to bring someone from the entertainment industry.
It wasn't that he had any prejudice against people from the entertainment industry.
Wang Xingxing was very concerned about whether he could understand what his company was doing and its profit prospects.
