When Hinton and Jeff appeared at the conference venue, the eyes of the attendees would naturally focus on them.
As two heavyweights in the field of artificial intelligence, their names carry a halo, and they walk like black holes, always attracting attention and attention.
At this special moment when AI technology has begun to take off visibly, many people want to contact them, ask them some questions about AI, or seek cooperation.
It's a pity that the four members of the Google team obviously have no intention of communicating with everyone for the time being, so no one knocked on the door of the small conference room in a really stupid way.
After a few minutes, Alex and Ilya walked out of the conference room.
They will not participate in the actual negotiation process. Laixini's main task is actually to take care of and accompany his teachers.
By the way, come to this premier conference and have a look around.
Therefore, as the negotiation time was approaching, Alex and Ilya chose to leave the room early and prepared to stroll around the venue, not knowing what new results would be achieved this time.
Compared to the famous Hinton and Jeff, Alex and Elijah still seem a bit immature. No one dared to disturb the two giants, but they still had the courage to get close to these two young men.
Alex and Ilya had just come out, and before they had even taken a few steps, people who were paying attention to the incident had already gathered around them in twos and threes.
"You teachers and Jeff came all the way to Sydney. What can this place have that America doesn't have?"
"Are they going to meet someone? I've been here for several days, and I haven't seen any heavyweights they are not familiar with."
"Has Google mastered AI technology? What are you working on now? Deep learning framework? Or computing hardware?" Some people are not paying much attention to today's event itself, but are more concerned about technology.
At this time, a young oriental face suddenly appeared. He saw Alex from a distance, waved to him, and then went in the direction of the conference room.
Alex was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that he was now more or less a person whose photos could be found on the Internet. This Chinese must be Meng Fanqi, whom he had emailed several times.
I had always known that he was young, an undergraduate in his early twenties, but when I saw him with my own eyes, it was quite shocking.
The results I had only made last year when I was about to graduate from my Ph.D. were so easily surpassed by this strange young man in front of me.
Even while doing this, he also allocated his energy to do one or two outstanding works of the same level.
Although there was not much interaction, the reaction of Alex, who was in the center of everyone's attention, instantly made everyone present pay attention to this young Chinese man who had just arrived here.
Everyone just watched as he walked step by step towards the conference room that everyone wanted to enter but did not dare to disturb. Then he knocked lightly on the door and then pushed the door open and entered.
Meng Fanqi's behavior caused a commotion among the bystanders.
He walked right into the conference room, much to the shock of this group of outsiders who knew this was an incredible opportunity. Join Hinton and Jeff as they discuss the future of AI technology.
Everyone was aroused by the young student's actions. After all, in a conference room full of people starting with master's degrees and Ph.D.s, he looked particularly young, but he was qualified to talk directly to two famous technical experts.
"What exactly is going on?"
"What is his virtue and ability?"
"What do Jeff and Hinton want to talk to him about?"
Faced with similar questions, Alex and Ilya just laughed and changed the topic without revealing any information.
Meng Fanqi pushed the door open and saw two people whose photos he had seen countless times in his previous life.
The gray-haired Hinton was wearing a light-colored shirt and a black knitted sweater. He was smiling at himself, and his originally gloomy aquiline nose had become much kinder.
Jeff, with his large forehead exposed, is simply dressed in a gray satin shirt. His appearance looks a bit like Dashan, a Canadian comic actor who was quite famous in China in the past few years.
Jeff's face is square and somewhat horse-like. He is a bit thin, with not much flesh on his face, and his face looks sharp and angular.
At this moment, he was deliberately making a serious and majestic expression, which made him look quite oppressive.
It's a pity that Meng Fanqi knew him a little, and in private he was actually quite a humorous person.
In formal situations, especially in negotiation and game sessions, Jeff is good at exerting pressure on young newcomers. When they visited Hinton last year, Alex and Elijah felt his pressure.
Meng Fanqi, who had been well prepared, would not be manipulated so easily.
While Meng Fanqi was sizing up the two giants, the two partners who had been fighting together for nearly a year also quickly exchanged glances.
In this field, where at least master's and doctoral students are involved, they have not seen such young people achieve world-class breakthroughs for a long time.
When Meng Fanqi actually stood in front of them, his youth gave them an unexpected impact.
Went forward to shake hands and introduced each other.
"You are a very cheerful person and a very smart person. We won't make any detours." Jeff said straight to the point.
"Most of the time, I believe that youth means immense potential. But judging from your experience and educational background, I also have to consider for the company that your achievements this time are just a matter of luck and chance."
"This is an astronomical contract, we are just talking about some possibilities, I hope you don't have other ideas." Hinton added.
Meng Fanqi smiled secretly in his heart. Others may not understand the value of these tasks. How could the two people in front of him not understand?
It's nothing more than one playing a good role and the other playing a bad role. With a dark face, Jeff put pressure on himself, partially denying his own efforts, and making himself promise that there would be academic breakthroughs at the same level in the future.
Normal people will be more or less anxious and passive at this time. After all, who can say for sure what will happen in the future.
But Meng Fanqi is the person in the world who is least worried about whether he can produce technological achievements. Google's pressure strategy has completely failed.
"How about this, we can sign a gambling contract." When trust is not enough, a gambling contract is the best solution. You can punish situations that you don't want to happen to avoid losses, and you can punish situations that you want to happen. Transfer more benefits.
Meng Fanqi followed the trend and followed the conversation to fight for the sharing contract.
"We can sign a price based on the quality and quantity of the research results, or share them based on the adoption of these results or even the additional revenue brought in the future. If my method is not adopted by Google, or if it does not bring benefits after adoption, I will even You don’t need to take a penny.”
"Just like the way I cooperate with Baidu now." After Meng Fanqi finished speaking, he did not forget to turn his back on customers and dropped a bombshell.
