Chapter 14: Simulated Experimental Software
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wednesday, in the afternoon.
Li Yi went to the company to sign some financial approval and check up on the company’s operations. After hearing Zhang Yang report the situation of the business, he hurriedly left.
He came and went in a hurry, and many new employees did not have the time to meet Li Yi.
“What? That’s the boss? No way!”
“That person? Is that the young man who spoke to Brother Zhang just now?”
“It’s said that the loophole scanning software we used was developed by Boss. His technological skills are awesome.”
“Who did you hear that from? It must be fake! The boss is so young! He looks a few years younger than me!”
“Are you serious? Boss even has technological skills?”
…
In the office hall, the technicians were discussing the young man who had just been sent away by Zhang Yang. Their boss was too mysterious. They had been in the job for so long but had never seen him in person.
“What are you doing?! Why aren’t you doing anything?!” Zhang Yang returned and berated as he looked at the people discussing.
Everyone’s discussion stopped.
“Brother Zhang, is the young man you just sent away the boss?” an employee around Zhang Yang’s age asked curiously.
Everyone looked at Zhang Yang in unison and waited for his answer.
“That’s right. That’s our boss. He doesn’t come to the company often.” Zhang Yang smiled and replied.
“Really! How old is the boss? He looks so young!”
“Brother Zhang, was the scanning software we used developed by Boss? Is that true?”
“Brother Zhang, is the boss a rich second-generation heir?”
…
After receiving Zhang Yang’s confirmation, the technicians asked even more questions. They were all very curious about their boss’ background.
“The boss is not a rich second-generation heir. He’s in his third year of high school next door. He was indeed the one who wrote the code of the software. His skills are much better than mine,” Zhang Yang replied truthfully and said in admiration.
After the interview exchange and Li Yi’s explanation of the usage and performance of the scanning software, Zhang Yang had already been convinced by Li Yi’s technical ability.
“Wow! So he’s only in his third year!”
“So he’s not a rich second-generation heir but an entrepreneur. Too powerful!”
“He completed the software alone? That’s awesome!”
…
Hearing Zhang Yang’s introduction, the technicians could not help but exclaim.
They were all users of the loophole scanning software and deeply understood that it contained heaven-defying technology. Knowing that the creator of the software was their boss and was even a third-year student, they could not help but feel admiration.
“Alright! Let’s get to work and work hard to achieve good results. If there’s any problem, you can ask the boss in person. He definitely won’t refuse.” Zhang Yang looked at his subordinates and smiled to encourage them.
“Yes!”
Everyone replied in unison and got busy.
At this moment, Li Yi had already returned to the school.
On the way back to the dormitory, Li Yi thought about a superconducting material model as he walked.
In the library, there were some books about materials that contained formulas and production techniques. However, if he wanted to completely copy them, he needed a special method that could present everything fully.
Li Yi needed a model software to imitate the real world. In this way, he could add experimental data, formula parameters, craft designs, and so on. Only then would the huge amount of data information not become chaotic.
Otherwise, it would take hundreds of kilograms of blueprints to produce the data of a certain nanomaterial.
Even if Li Yi had a photographic memory, he was still unable to record so much data and needed to write it down.
He needed an experimental simulation software, an efficient and convenient computing tool, to help him completely copy the important formulas and production techniques.
After returning to the dormitory, Li Yi downloaded some virtual simulation labs, simulation chemistry labs, simulation physics labs, and other simulation softwares online to test their functions.
Some were used to process images, such as Origin, while others were used for microstructural simulations, like Meterial Studio. There was also Pandat, which was used for finite element analysis…
Li Yi found a large pile of simulation experimental software to test, but none of them satisfied him.
Should he write one himself?
Li Yi could not help but think of this and be tempted.
Li Yi was stunned. His mind was filled with thoughts of simulating the laboratory software, using various new algorithms, and designing various functions.
After thinking carefully, Li Yi suddenly frowned.
Developing a simulation laboratory software that he wanted was a huge and extremely difficult project. It was unknown how many years it would take for him to develop it alone.
If he wanted to complete the development of this simulation experimental software in a short period of time, Li Yi needed a technical team. A technical team with him as the core to help write a huge amount of code had to have at least 300 people.
Where was he supposed to find so many people?
It required a huge financial cost to recruit them one by one. With Muzi Technology’s current wealth, it was temporarily unable to support Li Yi’s idea.
Li Yi stared at the LCD screen and looked at the QQ technical group. The group members who were chatting happily immediately gave him an idea.
Knowledge was priceless. After all, he had learned so many new algorithms and programming techniques. If he spread them through these technology QQ groups, he could get the other party to provide their programming services in return for learning these things. At the same time, he could also spread his knowledge and kill two birds with one stone.
Thinking of this, Li Yi could not help but be tempted.
With that in mind, Li Yi organized his thoughts and decided to put them into action. He opened the algorithm addition tool he had previously written and wrote a simple online algorithm learning system. At the same time, he also wrote some technical papers for new algorithms.
There was still a lot of work, but it was far less than the work of developing the simulation experimental software.
There seemed to be endless work to be done. Facing this situation, Li Yi was somewhat helpless. After all, he was the only one who had the “library”. He could only rely on himself and no one could help him.
As he wrote the code, Li Yi suddenly thought of a good idea.
Learning a new algorithm was a very boring and uncomfortable thing. If he could not attract their interest and attention, it would be difficult for him to promote these new algorithms.
Moreover, these calculations all had extremely high technical value. They were all inventive techniques. Before the open testing, he needed to find an intermediary to register the patent.
Thinking quickly, Li Yi’s mind went wild. He suddenly thought of a way to take the initiative. He would set up challenge levels and turn the questions about the new algorithms in the book into challenge levels. Then, he would turn the algorithm papers into clearing strategies. If the other party wanted to obtain these clearing strategies, they would have to pay with “labor”. They would just have to use the new algorithms they had just learned to help write the code section of the various functions of the simulation laboratory.
As soon as he thought of this, various thoughts surged in Li Yi’s mind. He kept perfecting the design idea of the challenge level system and dismantling the various functions of the simulation laboratory.
Li Yi’s face was red and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He had already thought through the closed-circuit design of the challenge system and realized that there was a high possibility of it being implemented.
After this challenge system was designed, not only would it achieve the goal of popularizing the knowledge of the new algorithm, but it also allowed the challengers to help write the various subroutines of the simulation laboratory. At the same time, with the addition of a challenger identity system, by controlling the spread of this algorithm knowledge in the country, it could effectively provide the technical level of the domestic programmers.
He would be killing two birds with one stone.
The only troublesome thing was that the code section written by the challenger required time and effort to verify.
He decided to set up a mutual evaluation mechanism and also throw in an honor ranking.
…
In the dormitory, the tapping of the keyboard became more and more anxious.
Li Yi was on steroids as he developed the design document. The more he wrote, the more excited he became. He was so happy that he could not control himself.
