Chapter 71: All wrong today

Ke Liangji and Zhao Yage are still sitting next to Shen Yu in the afternoon session.

Shen Yu has recently taken on an AI-related project for them, which was not too difficult for him, but Ke Liangji and Zhao Yage were still a little bit inexperienced, so they took advantage of the class together to compile questions for him.

” Shen Yu , when do you plan to start the project for that game?” Zhao Yage asked.

“Ask me if you don’t know anything, I’ve played a lot of games.” Ke Liangji said.

Shen Yu rolls his eyes, he hardly plays games at all and has been checking out the gaming market these days.

Although the initial idea was to make a virtual girlfriend game with just words and pictures, it was not easy to get players to come in and play, as we found out.

His idea was that the core selling point of the game was the built-in intelligent interactive AI, but in this day and age the first thing gamers look at when picking a game is more than 90 percent of the time the art.

Not to mention that it’s a romance game. Imagine if the original sketch of the girlfriend was a random sketch, whatever the gameplay, the players would feel no sense of immersion, who’s wife would be so ugly.

Apart from the art level, then comes the game’s ui, music, plot and other elements, with Shen Yu’s planned core AI interactive gameplay instead taking a back seat to these elements.

It can be understood this way: there is a nice facade to attract people in, and then a novel way of playing to leave word of mouth.

Xiaomeng I has been successfully created, and in terms of programming, Shen Yu has no more difficulties, even if he alone is responsible for the entire programming part of the game.

The difficulty lies in the artwork and the plot of the game, which is not easy to understand with Zhao Yage and Ke Liangji.

The only one we can rely on is Asaba Rika, a wild artist, Jiang Ningle can also help, they can do the original drawings together, and Asaba Rika can also design the plot and so on.

The workload is so huge that Shen Yu hasn’t even told Rika yet, and even if she started drawing it now, it would take at least three or four months to finish the whole thing.

What if it wasn’t a game, for example, but simply a piece of software for chatting with AI, that wouldn’t work either.

Without the plot and worldview of the game, no one in their right mind would want to chat with an AI.

As for more advanced emotional AI applications, Shen Yu doesn’t have the capital or the supporting technology to make them now, and that’s not something that can be done by individuals or small companies.

“There’s always a gap between reality and the ideal.”

Shen Yu said something puzzling, he looked at Zhao Yage and Ke Liangji and said, “Why don’t you two go into art, I’ve been working on modelling and split-screening software lately.”

“Don’t you dare! Do you have that kind of aesthetic?” Zhao Yage spat out.

“I’m good at aesthetics, but I’m not good at drawing, for example, I’m good at identifying my wife.” Ke Liangji says, taking out his wife again to show the two men.

“You’re just plain horny, what anime girl doesn’t have a short skirt, stockings and long bear legs?” Zhao Yage also disapproves of Ke Liangji’s aesthetic.

“Then look at me as a wife ……”

“Don’t look, get out.”

“Eh no, when have I ever been horny, I don’t even bother to look at the women on the street.”

“You’re sick, can it be the same.”

Listening to Chicken Girl and Brother Duck get into it again, Shen Yu felt his head spinning and interrupted, “Take your time, it’s up to Rika, I’ll talk to her about it sometime, you guys just keep saving your experience.”

At the end of class, the class president came over to the trio and asked, “Is your zoo trio participating in the weekend picnic? The boys will set up camp, the girls will do the dishes, and there will be a real-life picnic.”

I don’t know when the nickname “Zoo Trio” spread in the class, but it probably came out after the three of them became famous when they joined the A in freshman year.

Later on, it was felt that the trio of animals did not sound good, so it slowly became the trio of zoo.

The university life is still relatively rich, most of them are dormitory-based singing and drinking activities, Shen Yu three basically rarely participate in.

“What the hell is a real-life field trip ……” Zhao Yage grimaced oddly.

“It’s real life cs, field shooting, in teams of two.” The squad leader explained.

Zhao Yage and Ke Liangji seemed to be a bit impressed, after all, they are young people in their early twenties and were interested in such an interesting activity.

Subconsciously, he looked to Shen Yu , and if he was in, then he was in together.

Shen Yu is wondering where to take Asaba Rika this weekend, it’s the end of September and he’s only taken her to Zhou Zhuang once.

Although Asaba Rika doesn’t say it, she sticks to him silently at weekends, like a heel and doesn’t say a word, which is annoying as hell.

The key is his mother, who calls him every weekend to take Rika out. If he leaves her alone this week, she will have to come to the door herself.

“Can I bring my family?” Shen Yu asks.

“Family?”

“Oh, just regular friends.”

“Male female? No men, there are too many men in our class.”

“Female ……”

“That’s no problem.”

The class monitor was happy and collected the money from the three of them, and Shen Yu felt the pain of having to pay twice.

As for why she didn’t ask Rika first, Shen Yu was confident that there was no need to ask her, as she would have washed her hair upside down if she hadn’t gone.

Shen Yu rode home on his electric bike.

Asaba Rika did not sit in the back seat, he rode much easier, but felt the back was cool and not used to it, it felt like it was leaking.

When he got home and parked his electric car, Bai Xiaomeng was the first to rush out of the house, jumping into his arms and waiting for him to carry Xiaomeng into the house.

At the same time, Rika’s voice came out from the trumpet in the courtyard: “Shen Yu, you’re back.”

Shen Yu froze for a moment before he realised that it was Xiaomeng I who was speaking.

Still a bit uncomfortable, have to get used to it ……

He placed Bai Xiaomeng on the table, then pulled out a chair and sat down, asking Xiaomeng No. 1, ” Where is Asaba Rika?”

“She’s in the kitchen preparing dinner.”

Shen Yu blinked and had no intention of going up to her, she must have thought she was a pervert to actually say ‘I like Shen Yu the best’ in her voice

I can’t blame him for this, I didn’t think it would have this effect at first.

As we approach October, it is getting darker much faster than usual and the soil in the yard is drying out a little after a day in the sun.

Shen Yu then got up and went to the courtyard to unscrew the tap and squeeze the hose to water the flowers.

The seedlings are still very young, so you have to be careful when watering them, otherwise they will all break and she will be crying for a while, which makes her head spin.

” Bai Xiaomeng are you home?”

“Meow.”

The door opens and Su Zhifu walks in, carrying his workbooks and Bai Xiaomeng with him.

She was not very tall and Bai Xiaomeng was fat, so when she was holding her, her body stretched out like a ball of white spaghetti and her face was squashed into a pile.

” Brother Shen Yu, remember to water the sweet potatoes for me.”

“Isn’t that what you do?”

“I want to do my homework!”

Su Zhifu raised the workbook in her hand and ran off to the studio to do her homework in name only.

Because I was short, I couldn’t reach the table, so I had to lie on the coffee table to do my homework.

Shen Yu poured some water on her potatoes and garlic and onions and took a curious look inside.

Is there something wrong with the way you wake up today? Why is Puffs so motivated to do his homework? Didn’t he say he wanted to go back to the countryside to grow sweet potatoes instead of studying?

But it’s a good thing, and Shen Yu finds it very gratifying.

When I finished watering, put the hose on and looked into the kitchen on the first floor, I could still hear the faint sound of stir-fry coming from the kitchen and got a little hungry.

As he walked towards the ground floor, Shen Yu heard Su Zhifu and Xiaomeng I talking to each other.

” Xiaomeng One, do you know what seven plus five equals?”

“It’s equal to 12 oh!”

“What about six plus nine?”

“It’s equal to 15 oh!”

“Great, done with maths …… So do you know how to write the pinyin for cow?”

“niu (screen display)”

Su Zhifu rushed over to copy it and asked afterwards, “What about the pinyin for sheep?”

It’s been a week since the birth of Xiaomeng I. Su Zhifu has been playing here every day and has naturally discovered the right way to open Xiaomeng I. She even complimented Xiaomeng I on how good her voice sounded when she just switched to Rika’s voice pack today.

” Xiaomeng No. 1, I’m the third best person in the world with you!”

She was so happy with her copy that she didn’t notice Shen Yu at the door with a black face.

When Shen Yu took her workbook and wiped the copied answers clean, she screamed, hugging Shen Yu’s leg and begging to be spared.

“Save your sword …… oooh …… save your sword ……”

“Who did you learn that line from?”

“TV ……”

“Go back and redo it.”

“Ahhhhh! I don’t want to be with you anymore! I’m with Xiaomeng, the best in the world!”

“She’s the best in the world to me.”

“What about me?”

“You’re good with homework.”

After saying this, he took Su Zhifu home with him hanging on his lap and left her to do her homework.

When Shen Yu returned home, Xiaomeng I asked him to come upstairs for dinner.

Now there is a microphone in the kitchen, so Asaba Rika can ask Xiaomeng I to call him upstairs when he is ready to cook, which is much more convenient than before.

At dinner, Shen Yu ate in a sultry voice, but Rika’s skills are getting better and better.

Today she seems particularly quiet, a bit like she was the other day again, that is, she deliberately ignores him, but still can’t help but secretly observe him, such as lifting her eyes for a moment when she picks up her bowl of rice, and is amused to see how he gobbles it down.

Shen Yu is so perverted, she’s not going to talk to him.

When dinner was over, Shen Yu wiped her mouth with a tissue and asked, seemingly casually, “Are you free this weekend?”

“There is. ……”

“Let’s go on a wild goose chase together then.”

“…… I don’t want it!!!”

Asaba Rika was so ashamed and angry that he ran away.
