Chapter 63 Opening Tomorrow, Winning a Prize Today

"Are you sure this is the place?"

The smooth white lines combined with the cold texture of the marble give this ordinary front desk a sense of technological aesthetics that surpasses the aesthetic standards of this era.

On the background wall behind the front desk, the words "Jian'an Technology Sports Center" shone brightly.

Song Han looked at the technologically advanced front desk in front of him and the staff dressed in formal suits sitting upright inside, and his heart was pounding.

This kind of place seemed to have nothing to do with junior high school students like them who were wearing school uniforms and carrying schoolbags.

"Do I really have to go in?"

"Since we're already here..."

Song Han's voice also sounded hesitant.

Just as he and Wang Hao were still dawdling at the door, a tall figure wearing rimless glasses, exuding the aura of a high-level talent like those in Hong Kong movies, accompanied several public officials and walked out from inside.

"We welcome all foreign-funded enterprises to invest in our local area, and we will also provide good administrative guarantees for your normal business activities.

But is there really room for development for your kind of business here?"

The public official beside him asked curiously;

"The current mainstream fitness concepts are still things like running and other sports, right?

For this kind of fitness center that requires so many pieces of equipment, don't mind me saying, Boss Luo, I've never seen this kind of business model before."

Luo Xiang smiled and replied beside them;

"With the development of the domestic economic level and the improvement of the quality of life, we firmly believe that this business model will become the mainstream in the domestic fitness field in twenty years. Making advance arrangements, cultivating the market, and exploring different directions of the market are also the consistent principles of our Jian'an Technology."

The public official beside him was astonished;

"Twenty years? Your boss is really far-sighted!"

"However, compared with that, this model should be more easily accepted in the more open big cities in the south, right?"

Luo Xiang accompanied the people to the door and replied with a smile;

"Mainly, our Jian'an Technology has established several joint laboratories with the Chinese Academy of Sciences. This fitness venue was also established as a living supporting facility to ensure the physical health of the scientific research personnel in the laboratory in the future."

"I see!"

The people suddenly understood;

As the several public officials passed by Song Han, Song Han could still hear their strange discussions in deliberately lowered voices.

"Isn't the Chinese Academy of Sciences in the provincial capital?

Why is the supporting facility set up here? It's more than five hundred kilometers away."

"They can even make arrangements twenty years in advance. What's five hundred kilometers?"

"Who cares? Anyway, the investment has been implemented. I heard that several million yuan was spent on the decoration of this place, and several decoration companies in the city have made a fortune."

After the fire inspection staff walked away, Luo Xiang's eyes lit up when he saw the two junior high school students at the door.

"Which one is the little friend named Song Han?"

"That's me!"

Song Han stepped forward hesitantly.

Luo Xiang had a gentle smile on his face and stepped forward to take Song Han's hand, saying;

"Congratulations, little friend Song Han. Our club will officially open tomorrow. We have prepared a lottery giveaway activity, and you have won the first prize of our lottery, getting an unlimited-time VVIP fitness card.

Come on, I'll take you to register."

"Is it really me?"

Looking at Luo Xiang who was busy preparing snacks and tea, Song Han's mind was in chaos.

It's opening tomorrow, and I won the prize today?

Is this the power of the system to change the causal relationship?

Song Han took a deep breath;

"So amazing!"

Dingdong~!

The system is upgraded, and the daily task "Build Up Physical Strength" is opened.

After the exercise is completed, the system will conduct a comprehensive evaluation according to the exercise effect and reward an amount equal to 100% of the individual's total cash.

ps: The specific amount will be converted one-to-one by the system according to the percentage value of the excessive recovery brought about after the training.

The voice of the system woke Song Han up from his confusion. He suddenly stood up from the sofa and patted Wang Hao, who was gobbling up snacks beside him.

"Come on! Let's go exercise!"

"Can I go too?"

Wang Hao looked a little restrained at the environment inside the club.

Seeing this, Luo Xiang beside him looked at Song Han and asked;

"How about making your classmate win a fitness card too?"

With the company of his classmate, Song Han's first exercise was full of passion, and even the hard and heavy barbell gave him an indescribable sense of intimacy.

This made Luo Xiang, who had been secretly observing from the side, have an inexplicable light in his eyes.

After all, no matter who saw a ten-year-old kid struggling to lift the barbell and squat down in a standard manner would be greatly shocked.

"Task completed. The recovery time for this training is 96 hours. Preliminary calculations show that the excessive recovery brought about by this training will reach 15% of the current physical fitness.

Reward in cash: 300 yuan"

Song Han, who was almost exhausted, gasped and asked;

"System, where's my reward?"

"The reward has been issued. Please go to the front desk to claim it, host."

Upon hearing this, Song Han looked over. Just then, someone at the front desk was going through the formalities and handed a thick stack of cash to the front desk.

"Can I get the 300-yuan reward?"

The front desk staff, who was recording the accounts, was taken aback when she saw Song Han running over gasping for breath.

She turned her head and saw Luo Xiang, who was exercising in the venue, gesturing frantically at her. Then, according to the content of the induction training, she took out 300 yuan and handed it to Song Han;

"Hello! Here's your reward!"

Holding the money, Song Han let out a long sigh of relief, and even his legs that had been shaking non-stop seemed to regain some strength.

"Why do you get money for exercising while I get nothing?"

Song Han looked at Wang Hao, who was also sweating all over, and shook his head, saying;

"You don't understand. This is my reward."

"Then why don't I have a reward?"

"Maybe it's because I'm more handsome?"

...

After Song Han left, Luo Xiang also stopped observing. He gathered all the staff in the store and made arrangements before leaving;

"From now on, when that little kid comes, just follow the process of today.

Let him do whatever he wants. If he asks for money, ask him how much the reward is.

Anyway, it won't exceed 300 yuan a day!"

The staff at the front desk beside him asked;

"What if the money is not enough?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Xiang said with a straight face;

"Your salaries, property management fees, and all the expenses in the store are paid by the headquarters. Just for this club, with two million yuan spent on the decoration, this is a unique business. Even if we sell a pile of garbage, we can sell it for more than 300 yuan a day!

If the money is not enough, either you leave your job or you pay out of your own pockets.

Meeting adjourned!"

...

In the late night, Song Han, who was asleep as usual, silently got out of bed, turned on the computer that he had just received as a reward not long ago, and kept jumping back and forth between various forums and document libraries.

Limited by the natural limitations of the brain capacity of carbon-based life and the complexity of the AI system in the 22nd century, the information transfer this time failed to retain too much technological information, only leaving behind the development threads of each technology.

This requires him to have an in-depth understanding of the existing technological level in the 21st century and then make a further leap on this standard.

Unfortunately, when the human brain is involved in external information input, there is not much bandwidth available for instantaneous writing and processing.

All the information has to be obtained bit by bit from the outside world when the main consciousness is asleep at night.

And the active learning of the main consciousness can also provide some bandwidth information. Currently, limited by Song Han's personal cognition, his learning is still partly at the stage of repeated memory enhancement.

But it seems that something is wrong today?

Although the main consciousness has fallen into a dormant state, the neural axons in the brain are undergoing large-scale connections, and even the operation of the AI system attached to the consciousness has produced a lag.

"The universe will present the answer by itself, just like how life will find its own way out! Now we need you to find a way out for the future from the past!"

"What should I do?"

"It has been determined that the other party has launched an unknown attack on us, and this attack is currently spreading towards our solar system at the speed of light.

We cannot observe this attack. We don't even know what means the other party used to make the attack range exceed the boundaries of our cognitive scope. Is it a huge attack or multiple covering annihilations?

We will send a long-distance fleet in the following time to fly in a straight line towards different coordinates at a curvature close to the speed of light.

We need to observe the attack from outside the range of the attack. They are observing us, and we also need to be able to see them.

Only when we can see them can we defend against them!"

"What do you need me to do?"

"Based on the conclusions drawn from the collation and research of your memories, it is highly likely that the other party can only see the causal relationship of living beings.

This involves some clues that exceed our cognition.

The AI system is the life condensed by our human beings with material means. It will be constantly affected by the adjustment of time and space and only exists in the 'present'.

Avoid being observed and move forward in your original direction.

You just need to stay alive and pass the information back again.

The AI will arrange everything!"

...

In front of the computer, Song Han's stagnant expression suddenly changed. He turned his head to look at the clock that had pointed to three o'clock in the morning and wondered;

"Wasn't I sleeping? When did I get up?"

He looked at the rotating galaxy wallpaper on the computer screen, and everything seemed so familiar.

"System, what have you done behind my back again?"
