Chapter 175: The True Starting Point of the Metaverse (Alliance Leader Lu Renyijia)

"Why is that?" Feng Yuqing asked, somewhat puzzled.

She had normal standards of judgment in her heart; this shouldn't be. Ji Yongchang's upbringing shouldn't be this lax, and besides, Ji Xiang looked quite normal too.

"Sigh, what's there that shouldn't be?" Tang Yan said, "Sister Yuqing, when you mentioned artificial intelligence just now, I already had some guesses in that regard."

"Why?"

"A few years ago... after AlphaGo defeated Ke Jie, all the Go players were very lost, and then they started memorizing AI move patterns; whoever memorized more could win. So, Go competitions turned into memory competitions."

"Hmm?" Feng Yuqing didn't know what Tang Yan was talking about.

Tang Yan immediately realized she had said too much; the patience of a big benefactor like Feng Yuqing wasn't that great. Even if she did have good patience, Tang Yan had no intention of testing it.

"I also heard them talking dirty on the operating table," Tang Yan said immediately. "Director Zhai of the Anorectal Department said there is a book called 'Jump Egg, Rectum and AI', which talks about remote large-scale AI calculating chess moves, using a jump egg in the rectum to notify the player."

"!!!"

"The doctors in the Anorectal Department are especially happy. They say that in the future, artificial intelligence should be renamed 'Artificial Hemorrhoid Intelligence', with the 'hemorrhoid' from hemorrhoids. In the future, internal, external, and mixed hemorrhoids will inevitably explode in growth, and their Anorectal Department is the most emerging Surgery Department!"

"..." Feng Yuqing was speechless.

Artificial Hemorrhoid Intelligence, the name sounded indecent the moment one heard it.

What kind of place is a hospital, anyway? One look and you know it's not a place for good people to stay.

No wonder Ji Xiang could be such a beast... even the artificial intelligence broke down, so fierce!

"Director Zhai also said, it's just like William Gibson's novel 'Air Combat Game', the difference is that it's no longer about connecting the mind to a plane for air combat, but rather the AI driving humans from within the rectum."

"Remote surgery won't be remote consultations in the current mode anymore, but remote control through jump eggs. The most awesome surgeon in the future won't be the kind with fast hands, good eyes, and good technique, but rather..."

As she spoke, Tang Yan's small front teeth bit her lower lip, and a malicious smile appeared on her face.

"What is it?"

"It's the person with the most sensitive rectum."

"!!!"

"I later heard Liu Zhuren of the Urology Department say that using a jump egg to stimulate the rectum for a long time will definitely lead to Prostatic Hyperplasia, and their Urology Department is the best department for the future."

"Right! Cyberpunk isn't like what's depicted in 2077 either, but rather the rectum connecting to the brain, that's what Liu Zhuren said." Tang Yan became happier the more she talked, "Current research on cyberpunk is all wrong!"

"It must be like this, the cyberpunk concept of plugging into the back of the head is already a thing of the past; the true Metaverse journey for humanity starts from the anus!"

What the hell is all this!

Feng Yuqing looked at Tang Yan helplessly.

She was completely unable to accept the concept that the human Metaverse starts from the anus.

"Liu Zhuren also said..."

"Stop talking." Feng Yuqing felt her worldview being shaken to the point of collapse by Ji Xiang and Tang Yan, unable to bear it, she quickly stopped her.

When it came to the Metaverse, they could actually be so serious about it; Feng Yuqing really didn't understand what those doctors usually had in their heads.

"Yan'er, let me tell you something." Feng Yuqing quickly threw away all the censored thoughts in her head and said very seriously.

"What is it, Sister Yuqing?"

"From now on, you will assist in Ji Xiang's surgeries and keep track of his information."

"Sister!" Tang Yan said, distressed, "I'm just a little nurse; I'm not responsible for scheduling surgeries. And I have no way..."

"I have already spoken to your Head Nurse." Liu Hui, sitting opposite, wore a stiff smile on her face. The feeling of returning to the real world was truly good; she gradually returned to normal and said calmly, "Everything that needs to be arranged has been arranged. You will assist in all of Ji Xiang's surgeries."

"!!!" Tang Yan's big eyes blinked without stopping, bewildered.

Was it really just a matter of one phone call?

Department directors wanting a dedicated Instrument Nurse is like a dream, yet Ji Xiang has an Instrument Nurse just like that?

"Because Ji Xiang is starting to perform Interventional Surgery now, your salary will be doubled every month."

All of Tang Yan's unhappiness vanished in an instant.

Five bundles of 'little red bulls' (banknotes) are the truth of the human world! Not to mention that they come every month.

"Okay!" Tang Yan didn't stand on ceremony and clicked to accept the transfer immediately, "Are there any requirements, Sister Hui?"

"Just tell me about any details, and I will report them to the young lady."

"Rest assured, I am bold and careful in my work; there won't be any omissions."

Tang Yan's morning grumpiness completely vanished, and her whole person soared as if she had been injected with 100mg of Epinephrine.

"In many cases, before showing product designs to people, designers don't even know what kind of product they actually need." Feng Yuqing murmured.

These were words her father often said; after the AI crash incident, Feng Yuqing finally understood the true meaning of these words.

"Sister Yuqing, don't worry, I will definitely keep a close eye on Ji Xiang." Tang Yan immediately expressed her loyalty, clenching her small pink fist and saying forcefully, "No matter what he does on the operating table, I will report it immediately!"

"Hmm, thank you for your hard work." Feng Yuqing said faintly.

The things that needed to be said had been said, and coupled with the shock of the AI crash, Feng Yuqing was somewhat absent-minded.

After ending it hastily, Tang Yan called a car to go home.

In the car, she took out her phone and carefully looked at the amount of the recent payment; the number of "0"s at the end looked like a dream.

She could also have an annual salary of a million; Tang Yan didn't smile, and a thought that wasn't very good appeared in her heart.

What exactly does Ji Xiang do? To be able to make a young lady who casually throws out a million-yuan annual salary chase after him.

Strange.

However, Tang Yan didn't care what was strange about Ji Xiang; what she hoped for was that Ji Xiang could hold on and keep giving Feng Yuqing a sense of anticipation, so that she could safely earn money for a few more months.

Sometimes making money is just that easy.

Until she got home and lay down, Tang Yan still felt it was unreal; she repeatedly took out her phone to verify, and only then did she fall into a hazy sleep.

After falling asleep, Tang Yan's eyelashes were still twitching constantly, occasionally letting out giggles, extremely satisfied.

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

Every day, Ji Xiang wrote Medical Records and performed surgeries at the hospital, sometimes catching Meng Qingfei's shift at the Emergency Department to broaden his horizons.

Clinical experience cannot be accumulated overnight, and Ji Xiang was not in a hurry.

……

Shanghai, the largest Hepatobiliary Hospital in the country.

Qin Chu sat in his office; although he had already retired, the Hepatobiliary Hospital still accorded him extremely high treatment.

After all, Qin Chu was one of the national leaders in the field of interventional medicine, with countless disciples and grand-disciples, and he enjoyed an extremely high status in this discipline.

"Boss, the conference is already prepared for next weekend," Ling Tian reported to his boss.

"Mm, tell that child to come to the meeting when the time comes," Qin Chu said.
