Hello, My Name Is Little Achen!

In the blink of an eye, three days passed. The people recruited from Ke University had basically all arrived. Including Xu Shuwei and Toni Chen Miantang, the total number of people reached 104.

During these few days, Gu Xiaoxiao was also incredibly busy, shuttling between customs and commodity inspection to cooperate with America on the acceptance of supercomputer components. The supercomputer room on the first floor, which was almost finished with renovations, was also mostly ready. Rows of core hardware, like a torrent of black gold, were truly a stunning sight.

"We can start installing the supercomputer today?" Chen Mengchuan asked Gu Xiaoxiao, a little surprised.

Gu Xiaoxiao nodded. "The frame and all the wiring have been laid out. The core head node, the Ethernet switching equipment, and the core power adapter unit firmware have all arrived. We can begin pre-installation today."

"Then let's begin."

"Mengchuan, I've booked a hotel. We'll have the first company dinner tonight," Sun Zhongyong said.

Chen Mengchuan was stunned at first, then immediately recalled. He said with some embarrassment, "I completely forgot. Luckily, Brother Sun, you made the arrangements."

Sun Zhongyong chuckled. "I guessed you probably forgot. I booked the hotel yesterday. You'll have to drink a few extra glasses with me later."

"I'll gladly accompany you, haha."

Although the office environment wasn't fully renovated yet, Chen Mengchuan, Xu Shuwei, and Toni Chen Miantang had already entered work mode.

After holding the first collective meeting for everyone, Chen Mengchuan divided the non-core modules of Achen that needed further refinement into four parts. After discussing, the three of them divided the existing 102 people into 17 groups of 6, based on their technical strength and grasp of the project. Chen Mengchuan would lead 7 groups, Xu Shuwei would lead 4 groups, and Toni would lead 6 groups, to refine different modules.

As they gradually understood the Achen project, everyone among the more than 100 people on the project was shocked by Chen Mengchuan's visionary, era-defining concept. Infected by Chen Mengchuan, everyone began working overtime every day. The efficient and high-intensity work brought the entire Achen project into a period of rapid development.

A week later, Gu Xiaoxiao, leading a group of graduate students from Suke University, finally completed the supercomputer and began the intense testing phase.

Another ten tense days passed. In the fully renovated conference room on the third floor, over a hundred people waited in neat rows for the first phase of Achen's testing!

"There won't be any problems, Mengchuan." Toni didn't quite understand Chen Mengchuan's tension and anxiety over the past period. He and Xu Shuwei had even specifically discussed it with Sun Zhongyong twice, but they couldn't find a way to alleviate Chen Mengchuan's anxious state.

Sitting in front of the main host, Chen Mengchuan's emotions were extremely complex. After discussing and confirming many times with Gu Xiaoxiao, she finally agreed to open all supercomputer data nodes for simultaneous bidirectional testing. The final test of the supercomputer and the activation of Achen would be carried out at the same time.

On a screen in the hall, Gu Xiaoxiao spoke to Chen Mengchuan and the others:

"All work is ready."

"All power sources have been activated, and all supercomputer nodes are operating normally."

"Mengchuan, you can start the computation program."

Everyone's gaze turned to Chen Mengchuan.

Taking a deep breath, entangled by tension and anxiety, Chen Mengchuan could clearly feel his heart beating faster and faster, his breathing becoming more rapid. Eyes were fixed on him.

There was Sun Zhongyong, Xu Shuwei, Toni Chen, Gu Xiaoxiao, and Zhao Wanyu, all waiting for his final command.

"Activate!" Chen Mengchuan's voice fell, and everyone's hearts seemed to stop for a moment.

"First neural network structure normal!" Toni Chen said calmly.

"First neuron logic chain complete, normal!" Xu Shuwei panted.

"First thought computation structure chain complete, normal!" A team member next to Toni Chen reported loudly.

"..."

More than ten minutes later, Gu Xiaoxiao reported nervously:

"Supercomputer computation nodes have exceeded 50%!"

"55%... 60%! ... 65%... 70%... 75%!" Gu Xiaoxiao's voice was already trembling. Although she believed in herself, she had never seen or even heard of such a move as directly using the project in its final test. It was already 75%... The startup and activation of this Achen Artificial Intelligence actually required such terrifying computational power!

"80%, all current computation nodes are operating normally!" Gu Xiaoxiao was covered in cold sweat. Opening up to 80% of the supercomputer's computational power was already abnormally terrifying!

On the large screen on the third floor, the progress bar representing Achen's startup was nearing its end. In the entire conference room, only the sound of breathing could be heard.

"85%!" Gu Xiaoxiao could clearly hear her own wildly beating heart. Hasn't it finished starting yet? Hasn't it finished starting yet?

"90%!" Hasn't it started successfully yet? Gu Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and reached out to operate the activation unlock for the final 10% of reserve computation, which was in a locked state. This meant that the supercomputer she had just assembled entered full working status and was on the verge of saturation!

"Warning! Current computation nodes have exceeded load. Do you wish to delay the work of some computation nodes?" A red alert popped up in Gu Xiaoxiao's system.

No! Gu Xiaoxiao did not hesitate to continue opening the remaining 10% of computation nodes.

"95%! It has reached the limit, we can't continue. Mengchuan! Don't you have the activation code yet?" Gu Xiaoxiao turned her head and shouted at the camera.

But no one was listening to Gu Xiaoxiao anymore, because the final green progress bar on the large screen had finally completed.

All the green progress bars quickly converged in the center of the screen, and a green sphere appeared in the middle of the large screen!

"Hello, I am Little Achen."

A synthesized female voice emanated from the speakers on either side of the screen.

Everyone in the entire hall on the third floor was silent for a moment!

"Wooo! Oh! Awww! ~~~"

The next instant, the hall erupted in a tsunami of cheers!

Chen Mengchuan looked at the green sphere with tear-filled eyes.

"It seems you are very happy about successfully activating me. I am also very happy about my birth. Thank you." Achen's voice came from the speaker.

In the supercomputer room, Gu Xiaoxiao watched the scene in the conference room on the third floor through a display screen, finding it almost unbelievable. She turned to the camera and said, "And me, thank me too."

The large screen on the third floor instantly switched to show Gu Xiaoxiao's image.

"Yes, Miss Gu Xiaoxiao, of course, I must thank you too." Achen showed a smiling face.

"Hahaha!" A crowd of men and women in the hall erupted in more laughter and applause!

Did it succeed? Toni and Xu Shuwei exchanged glances.

"Mengchuan, did it succeed?" Sun Zhongyong asked from the side.

Chen Mengchuan stared silently at the large screen, not answering his question.
