562: The sight of 2.4 billion people!

Chapter 561: The Gaze of 240 Million People!

However, reality slapped Lin Chen hard, showing him how much enthusiasm people in this era had for Artificial Intelligence.

Actually, in the first 12 hours after the “Artificial Intelligence “Dawn”” app was launched, it was a tragedy and a disaster.

Because at that time, too many people were simultaneously accessing and using Artificial Intelligence “Dawn”, so many that it was completely unbearable, which directly led to the collapse of the intermediary servers.

Therefore, Shuguang Technology had to endure complaints from Global users and, while offering small compensations, allow usage in batches to alleviate the problem of Artificial Intelligence “Dawn” being overwhelmed.

Of course, such busyness was not without benefits, because the more people used it and the wider the range of topics they inquired about, the faster Artificial Intelligence “Dawn” would mature.

Lin Chen had originally estimated it would take about two months to mature, but now it is estimated to only take one month, which is a pleasant surprise.

Furthermore, it is worth mentioning that only Shuguang Mobile Phone, Shuguang Xinghuo Mid-range Mobile Phone, Dami Mobile, and compatible machines using Shuguang Ryzen Processor, Shuguang Graphics Card, and Dawn Computer Operating System can use Artificial Intelligence “Dawn”.

Therefore, many people, despite grumbling, still chose to bow their heads and purchase new Mobile Phones, Processors, and Graphics Cards from Shuguang Technology or Xiaomi.

Among these, there were many small interesting incidents, such as many people, in order to use Artificial Intelligence “Dawn”, ruthlessly smashing their products from other companies and buying Shuguang products.

Such incidents naturally made it to Global news media as anecdotes, much like the anecdote of “selling kidneys to buy Apple Mobile Phone” in the previous life.

Although this implicitly carried a hint of mockery and even sarcasm, one must admit that it represented the insane popularity of Artificial Intelligence “Dawn” Globally.

Of course, many people also complained about and even cursed Shuguang Technology, believing that Shuguang Technology’s behavior of only allowing its own products to use Artificial Intelligence “Dawn” was suspected of monopolization.

But none of these could shake Shuguang Technology’s market position or influence Shuguang Technology’s decisions, unless other Artificial Intelligence could defeat Artificial Intelligence “Dawn”.

However, it is clearly not easy for them to launch new Artificial Intelligence that can defeat Artificial Intelligence “Dawn”, because after GPT4.0 became popular in the previous life, dozens of well-known Global companies, such as Baidu, Xunfei, Alibaba, etc., all went on to develop Artificial Intelligence technology with the same technical principles.

But the actual result is that a year and a half has passed, and ultimately no company’s Artificial Intelligence performance can approach OpenAI’s Artificial Intelligence GPT4.5.

And at this time, Artificial Intelligence “Dawn” is essentially a product of plagiarizing the core algorithm of GPT4.5 from the previous life combined with the knowledge level of several local Academicians, integrating the characteristics of two eras.

Therefore, Shuguang Technology’s Artificial Intelligence technology at this time has already far surpassed the development of the current era by more than a decade, and it is almost impossible for foreign countries to launch Artificial Intelligence technology of the same level within one or two years.

Unless they brazenly and unreservedly use Shuguang Technology’s patented Artificial Intelligence algorithms and other patents, disregarding patent copyright law.

But in reality, this is almost impossible, after all, if you don’t follow the rules regarding patents and intellectual property, then don’t blame others for not following the rules.

And the West happens to be the biggest beneficiary of this rule regarding technical patents and intellectual property, while Shuguang Technology is the least profitable party.

In this situation, once both sides break the unwritten rule and bottom line of intellectual property protection, the West, which possesses a large amount of intellectual property, will ultimately suffer heavy losses.

Therefore, the probability of them brazenly infringing upon Shuguang Technology’s intellectual property is not high.

However, Shuguang Technology is clearly not at ease, because if you want to condemn someone, you can always find an excuse!

If they really want to bring you down, there will naturally be plenty of opportunities and plenty of reasons to find!

After all, the West has now successfully developed its own High-Entropy Alloy, and the United States automotive industry’s weakness has been resolved.

The current lack of outbreak is because development does not mean large-scale mass production is possible; achieving large-scale mass production still requires a process, but with the most crucial step completed, will the second be far off?

In this situation, without the United States automotive industry crisis as a restraint, the West’s blade can be wielded without pressure, so Shuguang Technology’s crisis has not been fundamentally resolved.

Leaving future matters aside for now, time quietly passed, and in a blink of an eye, it was the evening of the third day.

On this evening, after nearly two days of promotion, the “Focus Interview” program finally officially began its broadcast.

Due to the longer promotion period, which allowed sufficient time for more people to become aware, the audience for this “Focus Interview” program also reached a new historical high.

What is even more worth mentioning is the number of viewers from overseas; upon hearing that Lin Chen, the chairman of Shuguang Technology, would participate in a live interview program about Artificial Intelligence, many people from various countries overseas also became interested and decided to attend the live program on time.

Therefore, this “Focus Interview” program was not only highly anticipated domestically but also highly anticipated overseas.

Although they watched not through television, but through internet live streaming and re-broadcasting, this did not affect the miraculously high real-time viewership created by the “Focus Interview” program.

As for how many people this miraculously high real-time viewership amounted to?

According to a rough estimate by a certain private company, the number of people watching the program via television at that time reached an astonishing 200 million.

As for the internet, it was even more terrifying, with the number of viewers from both domestic and foreign internet reaching over 40 million.

In other words, a single program had 240 million people watching in real-time; it can be said that this “Focus Interview” program truly created a miracle.

Of course, upon hearing this news, many people were not surprised.

No other reason than that Artificial Intelligence “Dawn” has been too popular during this period.

The popularity of Artificial Intelligence “Dawn” among the public far exceeded that of the initial launch of Shuguang Smart Phone; in this situation, it is normal for it to attract so many people to watch an interview program.

And so, time quietly arrived at 19:38, which was the official start time of the “Focus Interview” program.

“…Let us welcome Mr. Lin Chen with applause.”

At this time, the host was still Bai Yansong, who had collaborated with Lin Chen many times before.

“Clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap…”

The audience and guests on site all gave warm applause, welcoming the appearance of the World's Richest Man, Mr. Lin Chen.

And Lin Chen naturally walked slowly onto the stage amidst the applause.

At this moment, Lin Chen was wearing a high-quality black suit, paired with a simple white shirt and a classic black tie, exuding his maturity and composure.
