Chen Yan put the little boy on the ground and said to him:

"You go."

The little boy didn't remember Chen Yan at all.

Even if you remember Chen Yan's appearance, you probably won't be able to recognize Chen Yan's current appearance.

He jumped up towards the Ring of Control, stood in mid-air without a foothold, gave Chen Yan a middle finger, and then disappeared into the brilliant light illuminated by the Ring of Control.

After a moment of waiting, the door to Area Z opened, and the impostor who left the meeting appeared in front of the three people.

Lindsay was the first to greet him.

"Hello, Mr. Chen, I am Lindsay Robert Darwin."

He called the impostor Mr. Chen instead of Jack Baldo.

Chen Yan thought that Lindsay might have known some truth.

The counterfeit has almost the same memory as Chen Yan, so he naturally knows what this name represents. He is obviously shocked:

"Long respected name!"

The two of them had a tacit understanding and did not try to shake hands.

Lindsay didn't know how much Chen Yan knew about him, and it wasn't important to him.

What matters is the purpose of his trip:

"I would like to ask Mr. Chen about something."

Lindsay Robert Darwin stated his purpose straightforwardly:

"I want to know how your company's chip business will develop in the future."

The impostor doesn’t know Lindsay’s motives, but his attitude towards Lindsay is obviously very serious:

"I believe that the chip business will have long-term development in the next few decades or even hundreds of years and become an indispensable basic industry for human society. Therefore, our company's chip development organization will continue to operate for a long time and absorb more

Lots of talent.”

The impostor is obviously eager for special talents like Lindsay and has made no secret of his motives for recruiting him.

Chen Yan thought to herself: 'If it were me, I would have to invite Lindsay in. The former veteran employee of the Baron Weiss Group, his value is simply immeasurable... Especially for the Neuroscientific Department, the name sounds similar to [Mimicry]

Neural Network] cannot be separated from each other. In this way, Lindsay's personal value will be stronger.'

What Chen Yan didn't expect was that Lindsay actually rejected the impostor's answer.

"I think you misunderstood."

Lindsay stared into the impostor's eyes, and the burning gaze made the impostor slightly nervous.

The way Chen Yan looked at him immediately simulated his state of mind at this time. That familiar state of mind made Chen Yan feel very bad.

That is "weak" and "confused".

Chen Yan will also have such a mentality - Chen Yan will also feel panic in the face of negation.

Unlike Chen Yan himself, the weakness and confusion in the fake's eyes were quickly replaced by fierceness.

Lindsay said in a tone that was almost "questioning":

"Maybe I expressed it wrongly... What I mean is:

To Mr. Chen, what exactly does something like a chip mean?”

This... doesn't seem to be a technical issue.

The 6nm chip made Chen Yan suddenly understand that what Lindsay wanted to ask was actually a philosophical question.

But the counterfeit didn't have a 6nm chip, and since he wasn't very smart, he couldn't quickly realize what Lindsay meant - he had everything Chen Yan had, including his mediocre IQ.

"Chips... mean the future."

The fake replied calmly.

There was obvious disappointment on Lindsay's face - he didn't even try to hide it.

But he obviously didn’t want to give up on this meeting, so he asked:

"Mr. Chen, what is the future?"

The counterfeiter was much calmer when answering this question:

"The flesh and blood are weak, and the machinery is soaring! Omnic technology will lead mankind into a new era. By iterating on a body that has not evolved further for tens of millions of years, human civilization will break away from the nature of a single surface civilization and enter the galaxy.

The sea becomes a starry sky civilization.

And the basis of everything is the chip - in the future, human beings must solve the last obstacle on the road to mechanical ascension - omnic disease, and make consciousness completely compatible with brain computers. This requires chip technology to make its own breakthrough...

"

The more he spoke, the less confident he became, because the more he spoke, the more disappointment appeared on Lindsay's face.

He is very irritable. Today is a good day for him. Logically speaking, no one can make him so irritable.

Anxiety quickly gave birth to another thought - Lindsay is a talent, but he is just a talent. The empire is most in need of talent, and he does not have to be patient with a replaceable person.

"So, Mr. Darwin, what does the future look like to you?"

The aggressiveness brought about by the ferocity made him ask this question.

Lindsay looked into the faker's eyes and said slowly:

"The future is a closed loop of logic."

It is indeed a philosophical question.

Chen Yan guessed correctly, but he was not proud. There was only tension in his heart - the answers to philosophical questions are more difficult to be recognized by different people, because philosophy is a methodology for understanding the world, and everyone has their own worldview and values.

Different, the methodologies used to understand the world must be different - that is to say, it is difficult for others to stand in Lindsay's perspective and come up with the answers that Lindsay can come up with.

What Lindsay said became increasingly incomprehensible:

"If the chip is a circle, omnics are the obstacles that prevent the chip logic from closing the loop.

If the world is a circle, the missing part is the obstacle for the world to close the loop.

If all people - as carbon-based life forms - are complete, once an incomplete person appears - once a defective person appears, this person will be an obstacle to the logical closure of the world."

Listening to his words, Chen Yan's whole body felt like he was struck by lightning.

Disabled people... [Disabled people] are obstacles to the world's closed loop...

Am I an obstacle to the closed loop of the world!?

[Logical closed loop of the world] What exactly does it mean?

Why is the problem with me?

How could such a macroscopic worldview fundamental problem arise in me?

The counterfeit didn't have Chen Yan's experience these days, so he couldn't understand what Lindsay was talking about.

The unknown makes him afraid, the unknown makes him irritable, and the unknown makes him angry.

As Lindsay spoke, she observed the look on the impostor’s face:

"The importance of the chip is not the chip itself, Mr. Chen, the logical closed loop of life is more important.

The logical closed loop of carbon-based life, the logical closed loop of silicon-based life, the logical closed loop of pure data life - although this kind of thing almost does not exist in a broad sense, pure data life will one day exist - when they

When you truly have your own world."

Chen Yan couldn't understand it more and more.

The same goes for counterfeit goods.

Lindsay didn't see what he wanted in the face of the impostor, so he was disappointed.

He tried to enlighten him:

“Artificial silicon-based life has fatal flaws that people cannot imagine, and the so-called [omnic disease] is just an expression of this flaw.

If the life logic of silicon-based life cannot be closed-looped, the chip industry like yours will definitely face not just omnics in the future, but also something more terrifying than omnics.

Logic that cannot close the loop will have a "gap" through which all the terrible things you can imagine can invade, and life itself does not even have any possibility of guarding against such an invasion.

This means that silicon-based life will be at the mercy of others, and silicon-based life will be shaped into whatever the [invaders] want.

That is definitely not the future that humans want to see..."

The more he spoke, the softer his voice became, and the more he spoke, the more bored he became.

Because the imposter has his impatience written on his face.

"Mr. Darwin."

The counterfeit's tone of voice that was neither salty nor bland almost told everyone clearly - "I've had enough."

"Social development is not the responsibility of one person. Everyone in the entire society performs their duties. Civilization will always move forward. Even if bad things happen, it will at least be spiraling forward."
