However, just after hanging up Fei Wu's call, another message came in. Bai Xi looked and saw that it was Gao Yunyao. He sent a voice message, "Ms. Bai, are you busy recently? Do you have time? I have always wanted to treat you to a meal to make amends."

The young man's voice was a little low.

He has invited me twice, this is the third time.

Bai Xi refused the first two times, once using the excuse of being busy, and once because he was really busy.

Three times the limit, since he has invited me several times, I might as well go and meet him.

See what he wants to do?

Seeing that Bai Xi agreed, the other party quickly sent another message, "Then I'll go and locate it now and let you know when it's settled."

The next second, another message came, "Which area do you live in? I'll find a place close to you."

"You decide. I'm fine with anything within the Fourth Ring Road."

"it is good."

After saying that, Bai Xi put down his phone and went to class.

At 5:30 in the afternoon, she changed into an ankle-length off-white cashmere skirt from Loro Piana and a blue knitted cardigan from the same brand.

It can barely be considered formal attire.

I guess the restaurant won’t have particularly strict requirements.

She did have a dress in her closet, bought for her by Joanna, but she thought it was a bit exaggerated to wear a dress for a meal.

Moreover, she would never go out wearing a little skirt when it was not warm enough, even though it was spring now.

This kind of cashmere doesn't count, this kind is warmer.

Bai Xi was dressed warmly, carrying the mint green iside she bought last year, she simply put on some lipstick, and went downstairs.

At six o'clock, she walked into the French restaurant on time. As soon as she entered, she saw Gao Yunyao waving at her.

The French restaurant is located in a bustling commercial district, and the entire store is decorated in a very romantic style.

Bai Xi walked over, and Gao Yunyao handed her a bouquet of sunflowers. Bai Xi took them and said, "Thank you."

"No thanks, it's mainly to apologize."

"Hey, it was just an accident. You didn't do it on purpose. You don't have to apologize."

"I still want it. I want to express my apologies." Gao Yunyao said as he pulled out a chair for her, a little embarrassed: "It's too late to book. There are no private rooms left. Sorry."

Bai Xi smiled and said, "It's okay, there are only two of us. The seat by the window is great." French restaurants are generally not noisy.

At this time, the waiter handed over the menu.

Bai Xi took a look and chose a set meal, and Gao Yunyao also chose a set meal.

The sommelier brought the wine list again.

Bai Xi casually flipped through it, told him the meal he had ordered, and asked him to pair it up.

Basically, there is a simple rule for pairing wine: red meat with red wine, and white meat with white wine.

Baijiu = white wine.

There are also some flavor coordination issues, which can be left to professionals.

Bai Xi doesn't have this skill, so he won't embarrass himself.

After the sommelier left, Gao Yunyao folded the napkin, put it on his lap, and asked Bai Xi: "How old is Miss Bai? Why don't we introduce ourselves to each other."

Bai Xi nodded, "Bai Xi, nineteen."

Gao Yunyao was a little surprised. "So young? I'm already 25. At your age, you should still be in school, right?"

Bai Xi nodded, "Imperial University, freshman. What about you? What do you do?"

"I graduated a long time ago and now I'm starting a business. You know AI, right?"

Bai Xi nodded. How could he not know this? Ever since ChatGPT came out, AI has become popular all of a sudden.

Gao Yunyao: “I also work in AI.”

Bai Xi was a little interested, "Which aspect?"

"Generate comics based on the story script..."

Bai Xi wrinkled his forehead.

She has tried AI drawing, but the accuracy of AI drawing is difficult to guarantee, and various errors often occur.

For example, having six fingers.

For example, I carry two bags on my back.

Gao Yunyao continued: "Later, we will also try to use AI to generate TV series and movies. This will be a huge market."

Bai Xi nodded. It was indeed a huge market, but the problems were also obvious.

Whether it’s relatively easy comics or difficult-sounding TV shows and movies - the process of machine learning requires a lot of data.

But comics, TV series, and movies are all copyrighted.

This involves a huge amount of copyright fees.

Moreover, generating TV series or movies requires a huge amount of computing power.

The investment in computing power is also a huge amount of money.

Of course, once this technology matures, it will also be a huge market, a market worth hundreds of billions or even more.

Bai Xi couldn’t estimate it, but it would definitely not be less than 100 billion.

She thought for a moment and asked, "Are you ready for the copyright fee?"

Gao Yunyao was surprised for a moment, "You understand too?"

“Just a little bit.”

Gao Yunyao smiled bitterly, "To be honest, no. So, we are preparing to raise funds."

“Has the technology been finalized?”

Gao Yunyao continued to shake his head, but his eyes were bright. “We can now make 1-second videos.”

Really?

Bai Xi was a little curious, "Can I take a look?"

"can."

Gao Yunyao took out his mobile phone, opened the photo album, and then clicked on a video.

It’s very short, in anime style, with a woman and just one action, raising her hand, and that’s it.

Bai Xi watched this video over ten times and it can be seen that the character's movements are not smooth, but it is indeed a video.

Bai Xi read it twice more and returned the phone to Gao Yunyao.

At this time, the dishes began to be served. Bai Xi's appetizer was Boston lobster mango salad. There was a small piece of it on the plate. Bai Xi took a bite and it tasted like mango.

have a thought.

Try it yourself next time. Hollow out a pineapple and steam a lobster to see what it tastes like.

The second appetizer was foie gras mille-feuille. When you take a bite, you can taste the tender foie gras accompanied by the crispy crust and a hint of fruit sauce.

Just, it's okay.

Bai Xi doesn't like particularly fatty foods.

Fortunately, the portion is just one bite, and the foie gras is half of this bite.

The dishes were served one by one. They ate in silence, spending most of the time eating and occasionally chatting.

Gao Yunyao seemed to want to know Bai Xi very much. He asked her where her home was, what her major was, and what she thought about the future.

The first two are simple. As for the future, Bai Xi thought for a while and said, "I don't have too many ideas. My biggest dream is to live a comfortable life and have free time."

Gao Yunyao laughed when he heard this, "Who doesn't think so? You can still think like this while you're still in school, but I can't at my age. I have to work hard on my career."

He also introduced his own situation. He is from Hangzhou and graduated from a science and engineering university. He played around for a year after graduation, but eventually he had enough and became interested in AI. His family provided him with a start-up fund, so he started his own business.

But Bai Xi's personal interest in him was not as strong as his interest in the technology. Eight out of ten sentences he spoke were all about this technology.

After finishing the last dish, Bai Xi looked at the time. It was already past eight o'clock and the meal took two hours.

Fortunately, there was a steak as the main course, so I was full for the day.

She went to the bathroom to wash her hands, and when she came back, she asked, "Can you tell me the name of your company?"

Gao Yunyao: "Of course, I'll send it to you. You can come and take a look when you have time."
