Chapter 20: Emotional Value Exploded
Chapter 20: Emotional Value Exploded
The teacher responsible for maintaining order backstage, seeing the venue about to spiral out of control, shouted anxiously into his headset: "What are you all standing there for? Get the host up there to control the situation! If this keeps up, the ceiling is going to be blown off!"
The host is a worldly person, but this is the first time he has seen such a scene in his more than ten years in the industry.
He scrambled onto the stage, grabbed the microphone, and took a deep breath.
"Everyone! Students! Please be quiet!"
His voice, amplified by the speakers, barely drowned out the clamor of the crowd.
"I think Lu Feng's presentation just now has left an indelible impression on everyone."
One sentence silenced the entire audience, and everyone's attention was once again focused on the figure in silver-gray armor on the stage.
"Next, let's give a warm round of applause to Lu Feng, who will give us a detailed introduction to his design concept!"
There was thunderous applause.
Li Hongde and Zhou Mingyuan also stopped talking, their bodies unconsciously leaning forward and perking up their ears.
Li Hongde, in particular, wanted to know more than anyone else how this kid managed to fit all those cryptic theories into this book.
Lu Feng raised his hand and swiped on the touchpad on the side of the breastplate to release the joint lock.
He walked to the podium, picked up the microphone, and moved with composure.
"My design concept is actually very simple: modularization and distributed control."
His voice was clearly transmitted throughout the venue through the microphone.
"The entire exoskeleton is divided into three main modules: the chest armor, arm armor, and leg armor."
He pointed to his chest.
"The chest armor is the core, where the main control unit and voice recognition module are integrated."
The back features a power supply I encapsulated myself using a lithium battery pack, which powers all the servo motors throughout the body.
He raised his arm again.
"The control unit for the arm armor is located in the forearm, responsible for the fine motor skills of the hand and elbow. The control unit for the leg armor is located in the lower back, mainly responsible for gait coordination and balance maintenance."
"Each module has a built-in independent microprocessor and attitude sensor, which can operate independently or work together via a bus. I have written a mimicry adaptation algorithm based on motion capture data for each joint, so that it can conform to the human body's own movement habits to the greatest extent."
He spoke in a calm tone, as if he were introducing an ordinary course design.
But the experts and students in the audience were already feeling their scalps tingle.
Distributed control, multi-module collaboration, motion capture data mimicry—these words, spoken by a freshman, made their heads buzz.
Lu Feng paused, seemingly thinking about what else he wanted to add, and finally smiled somewhat embarrassedly.
"Of course, this is still just a very basic prototype solution. Many aspects are still immature, such as energy efficiency, signal redundancy, and deep learning for human-computer interaction. There is still a lot of room for improvement."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the room gasped.
Basic solution?
You call this the basic solution?
Those things we saw before, they couldn't even be considered toys!
On the judging panel, the experts looked at each other, their prepared questions now rendered speechless.
What should I ask? Should I ask him how he calculated the nonlinear damping? Or should I ask him how he eliminated the secular term in the multi-scale perturbation method?
I asked myself, "Do I even understand what I'm saying?"
If you understand it, you'll know it?
The expert from the provincial mechanical engineering society opened his mouth, but in the end he just waved his hand, indicating to the host.
"Um... Lu Feng, why don't you... go down and rest for a bit while we wait for the results?"
Lu Feng responded, decisively removed his exoskeleton, put all the parts back on the cart, and pushed the cart towards the backstage.
On the stands, counselor Li Shu pinched his thigh hard.
pain!
Not a dream!
He originally just wanted Lu Feng to come and make up the numbers to complete the academy's task quota.
Who knew things would turn out like this? Now he really wants to call the dean and say, "Dean, things have changed; we're preparing to win the championship."
As soon as Lu Feng entered the backstage area, before he could even find a place to sit down, he was surrounded by a group of people in suits and ties.
"Hello, Mr. Lu, I'm from BYD, this is my business card!"
"Young Lu, DJI desperately needs talent like you! Starting salary of 300,000 RMB per year, plus stock options! Come to Shenzhen, and I'll help you get a Shenzhen residency permit!"
"We're from Huichuan! We're from Huichuan Technology! Don't listen to them, come work for us, we'll set up your own independent project team, and you'll decide on the R&D funding!"
One after another, gold-embossed business cards were shoved into Lu Feng's hands, with each offer more outrageous than the last.
Lu Feng was somewhat amused and exasperated by this display of hospitality. He could only politely accept the business cards one by one, saying, "Thank you for your appreciation, but I am still a student."
Not far away, the graduate students who had just been gloating over being favored by the company were now bowing their heads and quietly tidying up their models.
Their proud creation appears so pale and powerless in the face of Lu Feng's exoskeleton.
One of the male graduate students from Gangcheng Polytechnic University shook his head with a wry smile.
"Sigh, I thought it was all settled, but then this guy who's building mechs suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Is this for real?"
Lu Feng finally managed to get rid of the enthusiastic HR staff, found a corner to sit down, and mentally brought up the system panel.
He spent almost all of his time in the lab that month, but aside from consolidating his previous knowledge, he didn't learn much new stuff.
Current learning value: 3850
The learning value didn't increase much, but...
Current mood score: 2120
My emotional state exploded!
From the start of the game until now, the emotional fluctuations contributed by the thousands of people in the stadium have been nothing short of an emotional tsunami. We've really had our fill.
System, you're such a glutton!
system:"......."
Lu Feng calculated that once his SCI paper on nonlinear dynamics was published, he would definitely be able to reap another wave of learning and sentiment points.
At that time, let alone summoning a second big shot, they might even be able to meet the threshold for a third one.
Moreover, the current blueprint for this cutting-edge technology is nearing its end, and it's time to replace it with a new one.
While everyone was still discussing what had just happened, in a corner of the stands, a bespectacled boy excitedly uploaded a high-definition video he had just recorded of Lu Feng's mecha demonstration to Weibo.
He thought for a moment and typed a line in the title bar.
#Real-life Iron Man! A genius teenager at Hong Kong University handcrafts an exoskeleton suit!#
Then, he pressed the send button.
A storm that was about to sweep across the entire internet quietly began without Lu Feng's knowledge.
