Chapter 24: There Is Expertise Involved In Every Profession.
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Seeing the wonder on Lu Jia’er’s face, Jason was very proud. “I have finally received a sense of accomplishment in this lab!”
Lu Jia’er, on hearing his words, turned around and glanced at Jason. “From what?”
“From you!” Jason replied with a laugh.
Lu Jia’er’s curious eyes blinked a few times.
Jason smiled and said, “The entire R&D team is almost all men, and occasionally women partic.i.p.ate. But you can’t experience this sense of accomplishment from showing them!”
Lu Jia’er instantly had a pretty good idea. Even if these high-intelligence men could completely disdain other people’s compliments, they were men after all. They still hoped to be wors.h.i.+pped by the opposite s.e.x. As a matter of course, the opposite s.e.x members were graded. The more or less knowledgeable the female wors.h.i.+ppers were, the stronger sense of pride they would have in their work.
“One knows little about trades other than his own! In the future, I, as a kindergarten student, will have to bother all of you doctoral tutors for advice and guidance!” said Lu Jia’er.
“Professor Lu, you are being humble. There is expertise involved in every profession. Let’s help each other in our work in the future!” Li Zheng replied.
Lu Jia’er smiled faintly and turned her head right ahead when she noticed several staff members in an area to the right of them doing a set of experiments. She became curious. “What tests are they doing?”
Jason looked in the direction where Lu Jia’er’s gaze was fixed and then said, “Face recognition!”
“Face recognition?” Lu Jia’er repeated Jason’s answer. “It seems like something I’ve only seen done for technology in Hollywood blockbusters!”
“Yes, science fiction movies are usually the predictors of human science, but the face recognition technology is relatively mature now and no longer merely science fiction!” Jason said.
“Is the physical attractiveness tester we use also based on this technology?” Lu Jia’er asked.
“That is only a shallow application. The facial recognition system developed by our company is currently the most advanced ma.s.s face recognition system.” Jason said.
As a liberal arts student, Lu Jia’er knew little about these technologies.
However, Li Zheng, who was next to her, continued. “We’re going to upgrade it very soon!”
“An upgraded version?” Lu Jia’er was a perfect example of a curious kid today.
Li Zheng was enthusiastic to explain, “The upgraded version is called ‘The Eye of Sauron’, aka ‘The Magic Eye’!”
“The magic eye? As in Sauron in The Lord of the Rings?” asked Lu Jia’er.
“Yes, it is just like Sauron in The Lord of the Rings. After the upgrade, the system can draw data from any terminal video system as well as from any camera in the world. Any person or thing you want to search has nowhere to hide!” Li Zheng relished talking about it with Lu Jia’er.
Lu Jia’er was completely shocked by his words. They had turned the technology that could only be imagined in science fiction movies into reality.
Lu Jia’er’s admiration for them had multiplied, but Lu Jia’er also had some worries. The advancement of science and technology so far brought a lot of convenience to human beings, but at the same time one couldn’t ignore that human beings were also controlled by it.
For example, if the system of “The Eye of Sauron” was really like the scene in the movie The Lord of the Rings—it would stand lofty above all, reaching the ends of the earth with its light, day and night, closely watching you, leaving one with nowhere to hide. A thing of nightmares!
