From the Lion City, you can directly take a public bus to Larkin Station in Johor Bahru and then take the expressway to the bus terminal. After about a week, you will arrive in Kuala Lumpur, the closest Southeast Asian city to the Lion City.

For Zheng Li, the biggest advantage of Southeast Asia is that the grassroots governments here have basically no sense of existence, and there is no ubiquitous surveillance.

In a Chinatown in a place like Kuala Lumpur, no one would care about the addition of a middle-aged Chinese man with dark skin and ordinary appearance.

Zheng Li randomly found a place to stay, and relying on his physical fitness, he found a job as a security guard in a shopping mall in Kuala Lumpur's Chinatown.

Kuala Lumpur is the capital of Malaysia. Relatively speaking, even as a security guard, the salary is pretty good. This month's salary is about more than 2,000 RM (the exchange ratio of rm to rmb is about 1:1.6).

After spending two days in a shopping mall in Kuala Lumpur, Zheng Li manipulated the cognition of the mall management at will and transformed directly from a security guard at the door to a security person in charge who sat in the office most of the time and only went out for inspections every day.

And modified their perceptions, Zheng Li made them think that he had been working here for a while.

Kuala Lumpur's body is just a tool to store soul and memory. Zheng Li spends most of his time controlling the clone body in Lion City.

Cloning intelligent life will encounter a problem, there is no soul.

Even if it is a partially souled dog, the cloned one still has no soul. The mages discovered that cloning can only copy the body, but cannot produce a soul.

This is also a problem that the Mage Alliance has been unable to solve for many years. It is precisely because many mysteries of souls have not been understood that the mages have always felt that there are higher-dimensional lives in the dark.

Zheng Li's real body went for a walk in the public experimental area in the morning as usual. After recovering his mana, Zheng Li was able to do two things at once and control both sides of his body at the same time.

Not to mention that the work in Kuala Lumpur does not require physical or mental effort.

"What is the progress of the research and development of brain-computer connections in other languages?" Zheng Li asked.

Li Wanqing glanced at his boss and had a strange feeling. Zheng Li was already fair, but Li Wanqing felt that he was whiter and his skin was much tenderer.

Neuralink paid a high price to poach him before, but Li Wanqing finally chose to stay after considering many factors.

Li Wanqing suppressed the weirdness in his heart: "The experiment has been progressing step by step according to our schedule."

"But there are still many unexpected situations. We outsourced the experiments of white English-speaking people and black English-speaking people to Quintiles for brain-computer connection."

Quintiles is one of the top three biomedical research outsourcing companies in Americen, with R&D bases all over the world, so Kechuang Biotech simply outsourced all orders to Quintiles.

"Quintiles has a research and development base in South Africa, but I didn't expect that due to the impact of the epidemic, it would not be able to recruit enough experimental individuals."

Kechuang Bio's brain-computer connection is non-invasive, and its human experiments do not require FDA approval.

Zheng Li asked: "The content of our brain-computer connection test is very simple and will not cause harm to the human body. Why can't we find anyone to do it?"

Li Wanqing explained: "America is because most of the people who are willing to be human experiment subjects are the bottom class. Now the government pays money so that the bottom class can live a good life without working."

"Even white people who used to work temporarily are no longer willing to work. Quintiles said we have to increase the price."

For the lower class in Europe and America, working will not make their lives better. With more and more benefits, not working will not make their lives worse, so it is better not to work.

Zheng Li: "What's the situation in South Africa?"

"The situation in South Africa is similar. The experimental individuals required by Quintiles' research did not have the epidemic. However, the epidemic in South Africa is too serious, especially the black people at the bottom, who are almost all potential infectious persons."

"There are simply no qualified individuals to participate in the experiment, and they cannot pass the nucleic acid test."

Zheng Li: "Perhaps we can increase the price appropriately. The price is around 30%. I agree. You go and talk to Quintiles."

"In addition, let their laboratories in South Africa relax their control over the epidemic. The brain-computer connection test has nothing to do with whether the experimenter is positive."

Kechuang Biotech is about to go public, and there is no shortage of money.

Li Wanqing had no choice but to agree, and he cursed: The problem is that Quintiles researchers are afraid of being infected.

...

It has been a month since Zheng Li regained his ability to cast spells.

The krill swarms that Zheng Li previously released into the Pacific Ocean have gradually entered the bodies of different marine organisms.

These krill are equivalent to individual seeds. They induce changes in some cells of marine organisms, and some of them function as storage, central processing units or signal receivers.

Each cell can be understood as a small "processor", and Zheng Li aggregates all the processors at the logical layer through the honeycomb.

This forms a huge resource pool and a virtualized central processor with powerful computing capabilities.

To understand this using the concept of a blue star, it should be called a biological cloud.

Zheng Li was fortunate that one of the lucky "seeds" successfully entered the blue whale's body indirectly.

If an ordinary fish is equivalent to the most basic X86 server, the Blue Whale is equivalent to the Tianhe-1 supercomputer.

The current computing power and storage capacity of BioCloud is no less than that of Ali Cloud and Echang Cloud combined.

By the way, the only three companies that are really good at cloud development in China are Huawei, Ahli and Goosechang.

Many major domestic manufacturers claim to be building their own cloud, but in fact they just buy clouds from Ali and Goosechang and then use them as their own.

(A large company I know mainly provides business-end application services. When Echang Cloud was down due to a fault, its cloud was also shut down. Only after the user pressed him did he admit that his cloud was Echang Cloud.)

Zheng Li's brain is directly connected to the biological cloud spread across the entire Pacific through biological signals, and the storage and computing power can be used by him as he pleases.

Direct access to computing devices through the brain can improve mages as much as computers can improve people.

Calculation, thinking, and pure theoretical experiments can all be left to the biological cloud.

Zheng Li built a system in the biological cloud that could turn the giant into a potential artificial intelligence system, and then implemented a series of information security measures for the conversion between biological signals and electrical signals.

The system here only has artificial intelligence potential. If you want to become a real artificial intelligence, you need to spend time and data to cultivate it.

Zheng Li's physical body is in Kuala Lumpur, his consciousness is in the Lion City most of the time, and the biological cloud is in the Pacific Ocean. This architecture is a very simple topology, but the technical implementation far exceeds Blue Star's imagination.
