Chapter 180 Lingering Fragrance (Part 1)
On Sunday morning, all equipment in the "Cognitive Purification" laboratory was assembled and tested.
As the person in charge of this laboratory, Wei Hongsi naturally had to go to the site to supervise the acceptance and make preparations for the verification experiments to be carried out next.
Ownership of these devices does not currently belong to Zhiwei; Wei Hongsi's team only has the right to use and safeguard them. These valuable items will only become company assets once the SR and CDD projects are completed.
Therefore, several official experts and officials were also responsible for accepting the new equipment. Their opinions were even more important than those of Wei Hongsi's team because the equipment nominally belonged to the organization they represented.
After these tasks were completed, Ji Yongsheng, on behalf of the company, treated everyone to a working lunch at a restaurant, with Wei Hongsi also in attendance.
It was past 1 p.m. when they finished eating. Wei Hongsi contacted Shen Qing and then drove to her apartment to pick her up.
As agreed last week, I'm going to take Shen Qing to visit the school's laboratories today, and also give her the commemorative CD she promised.
This is for Jiang Haiyang and Dai Mengqi.
As Wei Hongsi was about to make a phone call when he arrived at the apartment building, Shen Qing came running out of the building.
Wei Hongsi pressed the unlock button, and soon Shen Qing arrived at the car, opened the passenger door, and got in.
"I timed it perfectly, didn't I?" Shen Qing said with a hint of pride, tossing her small backpack onto the seat and then fastening her seatbelt.
"Impressive," Wei Hongsi said with a smile, turning around and driving towards the school.
Shen Qing asked, "Are you busy this week?"
Wei Hongsi nodded and said, "I'm indeed quite busy, but very productively. How about you?"
Shen Qing said, "I've recorded both songs we collaborated on. I'll send them to you tonight so you can listen to them. You can choose which one we should use for the charts."
Wei Hongsi had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree: "Okay."
Shen Qing seemed to sense Wei Hongsi's guilty conscience and turned to look at him: "You don't lack confidence in us either, do you?"
"Of course not!" Wei Hongsi quickly denied. "I feel a great responsibility and I must choose carefully."
Shen Qing smiled slightly and said, "That's not necessary. To be honest, I was worried before, but after recording the song and listening to it a few times, I think it's pretty good."
Wei Hongsi said very seriously, "If someone as professional as you thinks it's very good, then it must be right."
Shen Qing covered her mouth and laughed out loud. After a moment, she said, "What you said makes so much sense. I can't even refute it."
Wei Hongsi smiled and then asked, "So you're going to start preparing for the chart-topping event next week?"
Shen Qing said, "More or less, but my aunt does most of the work. As for me, I just post updates..."
There's not much else to do besides creating vlogs and encouraging people to listen to new songs.
Wei Hongsi said, "If you have time on Tuesday or Wednesday, I would like to ask you for a favor to help us complete the treatment."
Shen Qing asked, "Like the previous two times?"
Wei Hongsi said, "More or less. However, the patients next week are more complicated, and they are from KR, so we cannot be sure that the music library we created earlier will be completely effective."
"Oh." Shen Qing nodded. "Their pop music does have a unique style, and in recent years the style has started to move closer to Western styles. If their public's aesthetic appreciation of music also follows this trend, then their understanding of the emotions in the music will also change."
Wei Hongsi said, "Your analysis makes a lot of sense, so we need to expand our music library."
The emotional semantics contained in music are essentially consistent with the construction principles of the "neural basic semantic stimulation package". Two of the patients in KR country were students. Relatively speaking, young people are more easily influenced by popular culture, which in turn changes their musical aesthetics.
Research on "emotional reshaping" is still in its early stages, and the construction of the music dimension is only in its initial stage. It will take a lot of time to truly perfect it.
The study of those three KR patients can further refine this work and advance the development of other treatment dimensions.
Shen Qing said thoughtfully, "Then I should study the music of KR country some more."
Wei Hongsi felt a pang of anxiety and quickly said, "You don't need to do any special research. We just need to figure out the correspondence between their brains and the semantics of musical emotions."
"7
He was genuinely worried that Shen Qing's musical style might be skewed by him because of this idea.
"Why do you seem a little nervous?" Shen Qing looked at him with some confusion. "I've studied KR country's pop music style before, but I haven't spent too much time on it."
Wei Hongsi said, "I'm afraid you'll waste too much time on this. After all, our research focuses on musical emotion, so there's no need to delve into their music."
Shen Qing smiled and said, "Why do I feel like you look down on KR's pop music?"
Wei Hongsi opened his mouth, thought for a moment, but still didn't respond.
He doesn't understand music at all, so how can he look down on her? But if Shen Qing can stop wasting time on this because of it, then let her try to understand.
Shen Qing said, "Okay, I know what you mean. Let me know in advance when you have your treatment next week so I can prepare."
The two chatted all the way, and didn't feel bored even in the traffic jam. Before they knew it, they had arrived at the old campus of Yuecheng University.
As the car drove into the school, Shen Qing looked at the increasingly large campus and exclaimed, "Your school is so big! Unlike our school, which is so small."
Wei Hongsi said, "Actually, it's not necessarily better. You have to travel a lot more distance to attend classes and eat meals."
Shen Qing laughed and said, "This is your Versailles."
Wei Hongsi drove the car to the college's laboratory building. The two got out of the car, and Wei Hongsi led Shen Qing into the building, where they registered at the entrance.
Shen Qing was a special researcher invited by the police. Feng Weixu added her to the list of invited visitors to the laboratory, and her information appeared as soon as her face was scanned.
Shen Qing found this very novel, feeling as if she had arrived in an unfamiliar place but was not treated as an outsider.
The guards at the entrance were also quite curious. After Wei Hongsi and Shen Qing went inside, one of them said, "Was that girl called Shen Qing?"
The other person said, "Yes."
"Is that singer Shen Qing?"
"It does look like her, but it's definitely not. This girl is a guest researcher, how could she be a singer?"
"That's true."
After exchanging a few words, the two stopped worrying about it. These days, there are plenty of people who look alike; many can even become internet celebrities and make a living online just by looking like that.
But looking at that girl from earlier, she was so young and beautiful, just like a celebrity. It's quite remarkable that she could be so patient in doing research.
