“boss, are we going to give out year-end bonuses?”

“of course.”

tang rui came to the company and was asked about the year-end bonus.

he was being very careful; the rather stingy kind.

“then how do we give out the year-end bonus?”

“the senior employees will receive half a year’s salary, and the new employees will receive three months’ salary. by the way, when is your holiday? how many days of vacation are you going to take?”

“boss, we’ve tentatively decided to take a break on the 28th of the year and start work on the 7th.”

“okay, that’s it. inform the finance department to quickly distribute this month’s salary and year-end bonus.”

“yes, boss.”

the new year was a little early this year. it wasn’t even february.

thinking of the new year… he had a headache because he had to meet li shuyao’s parents.

he left the office.

tang rui came to the post-production department’s office and let the post-production department go purchase a batch of gifts.

he was not planning to hold an annual party.

that would be a little too troublesome.

he might as well save the money for the annual party and buy a batch of new year gifts to give to his employees.

it was fine as long as the intention was there. there was no need to go through so much trouble.

in the blink of an eye, a week passed.

the company was on vacation.

the employees had all gone home for the new year.

but when tang rui started to get busy, he was really busy. before the new year, he took li shuyao to meet his parents and grandparents. he couldn’t gather everyone together, so he could only go to one family after another.

on new year’s eve, she would stay at her grandparents’ house for the new year.

on the first day of the new year, all the relatives in the family came to visit their grandparents.

on the second day of the new year, he went to li shuyao’s house to visit her parents.

on the third day of the new year, she followed li shuyao’s parents to meet her relatives.

on the fourth and fifth days of the new year, he would go to his grandparents’ house first before meeting his mother’s relatives.

on the sixth day of the lunar new year, he sobered up and went to sleep.

it was the seventh day of the lunar new year.

a year passed just like that.

how did he live?

he did not know.

anyway, he just ran around, saw this and that, and then ate and drank.

in a daze, the new year ended.

fortunately, gao yang did not return home for the new year. otherwise, with his schedule, he would not have been able to make it without a driver.

“happy new year, boss.”

“the boss struck it rich today.”

“president tang has made a fortune this year and is becoming more and more handsome.”

when the employees returned to the company and saw tang rui standing at the door giving out red packets, they all ran over with a smile and said good words to receive the red packets.

the red packet was not big. it was 500 yuan, just enough for a small celebration.

when all the employees had arrived, tang rui held the first meeting after the

new year.

“now, everyone will receive a bracelet.”

tang rui brought two big boxes and came to the conference room.

the boxes were filled with smart bracelets.

“this bracelet will be your identity card and access card in the future. don’t take it off in the company.

now, take out your phones, scan the qr code, and download this office assistant app.”

after tang rui finished speaking, he displayed a qr code on the big screen of the conference room.

everyone was confused, but they still took out their phones and started downloading.

“old feng, speak into the phone now. red lotus, carry out identity verification.”

feng yuanxing listened.

“red lotus, proceed with identity verification.”

“identity verification in progress, verification complete.

“dear director feng yuanxing, i am red lotus, the company’s office assistant.”

“your identity has been verified and the bracelet has been bound. i wish you success and happiness,” red lotus’s voice came from feng yuanxing’s phone.

at the same time, the color of the indicator light on his bracelet also changed from red to green.

“president tang, this is?” feng yuanxing looked at tang rui in shock.

“that’s right. this is the main brain of our company, the artificial intelligence, red lotus. it’s a truly advanced artificial intelligence.

“the entire company is now under the supervision of red lotus. you all have different authority and can go to different areas.

“don’t enter areas where you don’t have enough authority and can’t go. otherwise, your salary will be deducted, and the security department will invite you to tea.

h

as for the area of authority, you can ask red lotus about this. it will tell you.”

tang rui was busy during this period of time, and red lotus did not rest either.

not only did it transform the laboratory, but it also transformed the entire factory.

it could be said that under red lotus’s control, no one could steal the company’s information.

even if you memorized the informationand sent the news out from home, it couldn’t be done.

don’t even think of using the internet, for what you sent out would definitely not be information but a virus.

after everyone downloaded the software, tang rui asked the people from the aircraft design department to stay and continued the meeting. the other employees went to do their own things.

“old feng, how’s the design of the white emperor fighter jet coming along?” tang rui asked feng yuanxing.

“president tang, the design of the aero body is almost done, but it was only a simple simulation. there was no wind tunnel test. the specific lift coefficient and lift-drag ratio are still uncertain.”

feng yuan xing immediately replied.

“open the design.”

“okay, president tang.”

feng yuanxing used the computer connected to the projector to open the design of the white emperor fighter jet.

tang rui tapped it open and quickly flipped through it.

in their design, this white emperor fighter jet had already changed.

he couldn’t tell what it looked like at all.

although it was still the same structure of a canard wing and a forward swept wing, the body had changed greatly.

first of all, the body was very slender and looked very slim. its nose, on the other hand, was now very long.

from the nose to the cockpit, and then to the part connected to the wings, the length occupied half of the entire fighter jet.

the length of the nose of a fighter jet was about one-third of the length of a fighter jet.

however, this design far exceeded the length of a normal nose.

in addition, they didn’t use the forward sweep wing design of the su-47 golden eagle.

instead, he chose to remove the part that was fused with the body, leaving only the forward-swept wing. this greatly reduced the wingspan area of the wing, making it look very slim.

how should he describe this design?

he betrayed the way and left the scriptures.

however, one had to admit that a fighter jet designed like this was indeed beautiful.

moreover, the lift coefficient was not low.

the lift coefficient of a forward-swept wing fighter jet was naturally stronger than that of a swept-wing fighter jet, not to mention that it was equipped with a canard wing.

“red lotus, create a 3d model based on this blueprint.”

“generation complete.”

“wind tunnel simulation of the model…

h

“beginning wind tunnel simulation…”

following tang rui’s command, the data began to roll on the projection screen.

the low-speed lift coefficient, lift-to-drag ratio, wing resistance, and other parameters of the fighter jet appeared on the big screen.

the researchers below were dumbfounded.

what kind of speed was this?

could it be a blind guess?

even if he used supercomputers to run, it was impossible for him to run so fast.

in less than a minute, the low flow rate test was completed and the high flow rate test began.

it took a total of five minutes before all the parameters of the body were tested.

was there a problem with the design?

yes.

not only was there a problem, but there was also a huge problem.

“i’m sorry, president tang. we’ll fix the problem as soon as possible.”

feng yuanxing said immediately after seeing the test results on the big screen.

when faced with such a situation, it was not difficult to apologize first.

“don’t go through so much trouble. red lotus will modify the body.”

“alright, red lotus is simulating the body. please wait a moment.”

as the computing power of the quantum supercomputer increased.

the shape of the fighter jet on the big screen was changing slightly every second.

every single change represented red lotus’s simulation of the shape of the airflow, absorbing the advantages and removing the disadvantages.

to put it simply, it was to rely on computing power and the exhaustive method to frantically carry out simulation tests to find the design with the best data.

it took half an hour. the appearance of the mecha on the big screen was completely fixed and no longer changed.

“after a lot of calculations, the overall data of this model’s aero layout is the highest.”red lotus said.

after hearing this, no one said anything.

all of them were staring at the slowly rotating 3d model on the big screen.

beautiful.

it was very beautiful.

tang rui was very satisfied with the appearance of this model of the body.

although the overall layout was not modified, the entire body had been modified countless times by red lotus.

even the area of the wings had been calculated hundreds of millions of times.

no matter where one looked at it, the shape of the entire fighter jet felt comfortable. that was how the lines should feel.

appearance was combat power.

it would be no problem if it was placed on a fighter jet.

“alright, that’s the design of the aero engine. next, you should talk about the internal structure design.”

tang rui turned his head and said to everyone who was still in a daze.

“okay, president tang, 1 understand.”

feng yuan xing swallowed his saliva and said with a shocked expression.

“oh right, when you design the internal structure, you can use red lotus’s computing power.”

“thank you, president tang. we promise to complete the interior design as soon as possible.”

feng yuanxing, who was originally worried about losing his job, was now only excited.

with such a level of artificial intelligence and computing power, would it be difficult for them to design an aircraft?

not even in the slightest..
