A Race to (Be) The Top - Chapter 87
The author has something to say: Disclaimer: The chicken confession is over! Because he shouted out in one breath, but the deer didn’t finish listening!
The phone’s ringtone rang in the silent living room. Ling Xiaolu’s first reaction was Ji Meng’s call, but it showed an unfamiliar number.
“Hello, is this Mr. Ling Xiaolu? This is Ke Ming, the manager of Xinshan Customer Service Department. I hope you still have an impression of me.”
Of course Ling Xiaolu remembers.
“According to the response of the technicians, the problem of your peripherals has been resolved. Has your equipment been successfully removed?”
Ling Xiaolu picked up the other half of the collar from the ground in a complicated mood: “Yes…”
“I know that the next request is rather rude, but please stay at home and wait. Later, a staff member will come to your home and pick you up to the company to sign a follow-up agreement.”
Ling Xiaolu looked at the night outside the window in confusion, “Now?”
“Sorry, this matter is urgent. We urgently need your cooperation. The situation is complicated. I will explain to you in detail when you arrive.”
Ling Xiaolu’s mobile phone consumed the last bit of power when he hung up. When he wanted to use it for charging, Xinshan’s staff had already rang the doorbell.
Even if this is an era of convenient transportation, Ling Xiaolu does not believe that they can arrive in such a short time. In other words, before the collar was removed, the person who came to pick him up was already on the way.
Half an hour later, Ling Xiaolu sat in the reception room of Xinshan Customer Service Center for the first time.
Ke Ming interprets the word polite to the extreme as he first saw it.
“Thank you very much for your help in testing game data in the past few months, and on behalf of the company, I once again apologize for the inconvenience caused to you.”
Ling Xiaolu still had one thing in mind.
“Sorry, can I contact someone online first…” He suddenly thought that the disconnected peripherals might not allow him to do so, “Or you can help me contact.”
He disappeared suddenly without a sound, Ji Meng must be in a hurry, at least he must report his peace.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door, and a female staff member came in. It was not considered Ling Xiaolu’s illusion. When she entered the room, her eyes stayed on him intentionally or unintentionally.
“What?” Ke Ming asked, the tone of his boss’s questioning to his subordinates.
The visitor whispered a few words to Ke Ming. Although the voice was very low, a familiar name popped out. Ling Xiaolu keenly realized that what she said was related to Ji Meng.
“Is it Ji Meng?” Ling Xiaolu stood up nervously, “Can I give him a word.”
Ke Mingbi made a soothing gesture, turned his head and whispered to his subordinates, Ling Xiaolu seemed to hear the words “stabilize the emotion” and “delay as much as possible”.
“Wait a minute,” Ling Xiaolu said anxiously, “just one sentence, or lend me a charging source and I’ll make a call.”
Ke Ming politely refused: “Sorry, it is not convenient for you to contact anyone now.”
“why?”
Ke Ming gestured Ji Meng’s exclusive customer service with a wink to leave first, and the other party finally glanced at Ling Xiaolu regretfully, turned and took the door of the reception room.
“Why can’t I contact Ji Meng?” Ling Xiaolu was anxious, “You know that person he always thinks a lot, maybe he will misunderstand something, he even thought I was an AI developed by Xinshan.”
“Then what if you are?”
Ling Xiaolu:? ? !
Ling Xiaolu sat down heavily on the chair and laughed out loud for a long time.
“Ha, stop joking, okay?”
Ke Ming also sat down opposite him: “You are indeed not, but I am not joking. What I say next may cause you difficulties, but the situation is complicated, so please cooperate.”
Ling Xiaolu’s brain was in a mess: “What do you want me to cooperate with?”
“In order to solve the peripheral failure problem you encountered as soon as possible, our company’s technicians created a test body using your data.”
“Test… test body?”
“Explain in plain language, it is the AI in your mouth.”
Ling Xiaolu tried very hard to digest the information in his words.
“You mean… you used my data… to create an AI? There really is such an AI? Isn’t Ji Meng thinking about it?”
“Yes, he may have got some news from other channels, but he just admitted the wrong person.”
Ling Xiaolu thought that Ji Meng’s brain hole was too big, but he didn’t expect it to be a misunderstanding.
“and then?”
“In the process of testing this AI, there were also some problems, and the problems were more serious. At the beginning, we didn’t think about it well and gave him too much testing authority. By the time we found out, his authority was so large that the technical department could not. Control, this is too dangerous for other game players, we cannot allow him to continue to exist.”
“Then where is it now?”
“We are now using some emergency measures to temporarily hibernate it, but hibernation has a time limit. We are very worried that once it restarts, it will cause unpredictable damage to the entire game.”
“But what can I do?”
“Due to some complicated reasons, his data is bound to your data and cannot be separated. If you want to destroy it, there is only one way.”
Ke Ming looked directly into his eyes.
“Completely delete all information on the server for the account’Lubi’.”
Ling Xiaolu:? ? !
Ke Ming placed three stacks of documents in front of him neatly.
“This is a test agreement signed before you enter the game. There are detailed terms in it. You are playing the game in the capacity of assisting the company in testing. The company has all the rights to research, copy, modify and delete your data. You are in the game All the images, video and audio materials left behind are also owned by the company, and you have no right to keep or backup. The company compensates you at the highest hourly salary of the testers. These terms have been explained in detail when you sign. “
Everything he said was a fact, and when Ling Xiaolu signed this agreement, all of this was worthless to him, so he did not hesitate to sign it.
“but…”
But time has changed, and his mood has changed a long time ago.
Those data are more than just data to him, every frame image is his precious memory.
“The second one is that during your game testing period, some unplanned situations occurred in the company. In response to these accidents, we have drafted a supplementary agreement, and we hope that you can cooperate with us to sign it.”
Ling Xiaolu could hardly finish reading.
“I even have to delete my account, what else can I add?”
“The terms are here. You can read it yourself. The most difficult one is that you…must give up your current mobile phone number.”
“Why! This is my private number!” Ling Xiaolu was a little angry.
“Because of our staff’s mistakes and accidentally leaked your private number, I solemnly apologize to you again. We also have compensation for this, and these are all written in the agreement.”
He pushed the third document forward: “The last one is a non-disclosure agreement. Since there are too many development and trade secrets involved, we hope that you will not disclose the whole matter to anyone, no matter who that person is. .”
“Even…your people can’t?”
“Yes, neither can he.”
Ke Ming seemed very sure about who Ling Xiaolu was talking about.
“We are not opposed to you continuing to develop relationships with players you know in the game, as long as you are not in the identity of’Lubi’.”
Ke Ming took out two more cards from his arms and placed them neatly next to the confidentiality agreement.
“All your remuneration during the test period, as well as the compensation mentioned in the supplementary agreement and the confidentiality agreement, are all in this card. And the other is a brand new phone card that you apply for in your name, and you only need to bind the iris. Can be used normally.”
The mess in Ling Xiaolu’s mind contrasted sharply with the neatness of the desktop.
The other party’s preparation was so perfect, as perfect as…a long-planned plan.
He inserted his fingers into his hair, trying to escape from this perfect plan.
“I know that all this is too sudden for you and difficult to accept. I can give you time to calmly think, but this time cannot be too long, because it will be 24 hours before the AI body is hibernated in emergency. We Players cannot be placed at any risk, and I hope to understand.”
He left these words, leaving Ling Xiaolu in the room alone, and walked out of the reception room door. Outside the door, a 1.9-meter tall man leaned heavily on the wall.
“Don’t you go in and say hello to him?” Ke Ming asked.
“Ling Long” glanced at him with a complicated expression: “What face do I have, what face do I have to see him. What am I going to tell him? Sorry, your account is gone? Is it really gone this time?”
Ke Ming patted his arm understandingly: “Then tell me, what should I say so that he won’t refuse.”
Ling Long shook off his hand a little angrily, and said angrily in a tone that could be regarded as disrespectful to his boss: “Manager, you asked me to be his exclusive customer service to help him hide his identity, not to catch his weakness. , Used to threaten him!”
“I know, I know,” Ke Ming calmed him as gently as possible, “but think about it, since this matter is doomed, do you want him to accept this result as calmly as possible?”
“…” Ling Long leaned back against the wall and spoke for a while, “Fawn Bi is a very affectionate person. He often sacrifices himself for others…I can think of this.”
Ke Ming pondered for a moment and seemed to have a countermeasure.
“I see, thank you. Has the news been released?”
Ling Long nodded listlessly: “We have told several employees in the company who have nephews to release the news, so that Xinshan has made a fake AI player…”
…
In the game “Elves Contract”, the most lively place with the fastest spread of gossip is always the tavern in the town.
“Big news! Big news! I heard my uncle who works in Xinshan say that Dongtianling has made a big news!”
“What big news, can it be bigger than the news that Xinshan Prince Ji confessed to half of his confession object?”
The two major events on the server tonight, Dou Kou Jieqi and Ji Meng’s confession, the latter became more popular and the number of people discussed.
“I heard from my uncle that Xinshan has secretly developed an AI player, this person!” His startled tone frightened everyone around him, “Hidden among us.”
“No, really? If there is an AI, how can it not be recognized?”
“It’s hard to say that the current AI technology is so advanced, you can’t recognize the high imitation walking on the street, let alone it is in the game.”
“If there is such a person, no, for AI, I have a personal choice in my heart.”
“It’s AI selection, right?”
“Don’t tangle with words, let him say who it is.”
The man lowered his voice and asked mysteriously: “I have suspected this question for a long time. I ask you, who can still remember what Lubi looks like after being offline?”
