Chapter 153 - Chapter 153 Intelligent CAD SoftwareChapter 153 Intelligent CAD Software
“Master, the Intelligent CAD software has been developed.” Bai Ze’s cold voice came from the computer speaker.
Li Chengqian’s gaze landed on the computer desktop.
Immediately, a folder named ‘Intelligent CAD System’ appeared in front of Li Chengqian.
Two translucent notifications appeared in front of Li Chengqian.
[intelligent CAD System completion rate: 100%. Software grade: C.]
[C-grade software development completed. Reward: 1 million experience value points. Current Experience Pool: 3.1 million experience value points.]
After reading the notification, Li Chengqian opened the software in a leisurely manner.
An interface similar to AUTOCAD appeared in front of Li Chengqian.
The first thing that appeared in front of Li Chengqian was a notification interface.
“Please import a topographic map of the land to be built on.” He really didn’t have the topographic map of the land. This data was in Xie Jie’s hands.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the studio. The new CEO’s secretary, Chen Cheng, said in a polished voice, “Boss, the designer, Xie Jie is here. What do you think we should do?”
Li Chengqian stopped what he was doing and thought for a moment before saying, “Let Xie Jie in.”
In terms of architectural design, Li Chengqian was not a professional. He would need a professional to assess whether the design plan produced by the Intelligent CAD software was reasonable or feasible, and what flaws it had.
Therefore, he didn’t intend to hide it.
“Boss, we are almost done discussing the details of the collaboration with President Lei. He wants to talk to you about the advertising platform going forward. What do you think?” Zhao Na continued to ask.
“How about this? Ask President Lei, President Huang, and Director Zhao Na to come up together.” Li Chengqian thought for a moment and made the arrangements.
The purpose of the Intelligent CAD software was to assist people. Li Chengqian wanted others to help review if the software was useful and if the design was feasible.
Moreover, when the construction of the Divine Dragon Software Company building begins, other parties would be involved.
“This is CAD? It doesn’t look like AUTOCAD software. Could it be a new software that just appeared? It looks too simple.” After Xie Jie came in, he took a seat on Li Chengqian’s invitation. He happened to see the image of the Intelligent CAD software on the big screen. He had some doubts in his heart, but he didn’t voice it directly.
Soon, Lei Che, Huang Ting, and Zhao Na arrived at the studio and sat in front of the big screen.
“President Li, it’s like this…” After Lei Che took a seat, he was prepared to explain his next step in managing the advertising platform.
“Xie Jie, President Lei, let’s not talk about other issues for the time being!”
“I’ve developed an Intelligent CAD software. I invited you here today to ask you to help conduct a limited user test,” Li Chengqian said with a smile. Then, he shifted his gaze to Xie Ji, the designer.
“Xie Jie, do you have a topographic map with you?”
“Yes!” Designer Xie Jie had a computer in his hand. As he spoke, he had already turned on the computer and emailed Li Chengqian a topographic map.
Then, he looked at the big screen curiously, but he didn’t think much of it.
CAD software was industrial software. Its actual name was the Computer-Aided Design system. In the beginning, CAD software was used to assist in the design of aircraft, rockets, missiles, cars, and other cutting-edge mechanical equipment.
Subsequently, the CAD software was popularized in various industries.
It was extremely difficult to develop the technology!
Although the Divine Dragon Software Company had developed the operating system and its technology was extremely powerful, it was almost impossible to develop a CAD software in such a short period of time.
Li Chengqian didn’t care what Xie Jie was thinking at all. He had already imported the map into the software according to the system prompts.
“Importing topographic map mapping data…
Simulating terrain… Obtaining current seismic data of the land mass, rainfall data over the years, wind data, lightning data…”
Xie Jie nodded and thought, “It looks like it. Earthquakes and winds affect the design strength of houses, rainfall data affects drainage design, and lightning data affect the number of lightning rods in houses.”
“Simulation of terrain successfully generated!”
The original software interface was pitch-black. A square, uneven ground was formed in the void and floated in the void. It appeared like it was created out of nothing, and was very impressive to look at.
The terrain of this land was exactly the same as the piece of land bought by Divine Dragon Software.
“The 3D modeling effect is not bad! But… it’s flashy but useless!” Xie Jie muttered in his heart. Architecture CAD basically did not have many requirements for 3D modeling. A 2D design was enough.
When Lei Che and Huang Ting saw the scene displayed on the big screen, they were very shocked. A thought appeared in their hearts.
“Could it be that Li Chengqian wants to go into the gaming business next?”
At this moment, a new notification appeared on the big screen.
“Please import geological survey data for the site.”
The geological survey data was actually the situation underground. Whether there was stone or soil underground, whether there was a karst cave, and how much was the load endurance. These data formed the foundation of architectural design. Without this data, no matter how good a designer was, they wouldn’t be able to design anything.
“I’ll send you the survey data!” Xie Jie was very proactive this time. Without waiting for Li Chengqian to speak, he sent the survey data over.
Li Chengqian imported the land survey data according to the system prompts. Then, under the piece of ground floating in the void became thicker and thicker. Mud, rock, underground rivers, and karst caves appeared one after another.
“This feeling is really wonderful. It feels like I’m playing a sandbox game with God’s vision.” Li Chengqian sighed. “This 3D modeling ability is stronger than all the software I’ve used before!” Xie Jie looked at the blueprint in his computer and the contempt that had appeared in his heart gradually disappeared.
A notification appeared on the big screen. “Land survey data imported.”
“Please choose the type of construction project.
1. Office 2. Residential 3. Commercial & Residential 4. Factory.”
Li Chengqian randomly chose ‘Office’.
“Please enter the scale of construction.’ On the software interface, three data that needed to be filled in appeared. The total built-up area, the number of buildings, and the number of floors.
“President Li, the planned total built-up area is 90,000 square meters. Two buildings, one building to have nine floors, and the other building to have 31 floors.” Xie Jie explained the plan.
Li Chengqian took a look and filled in ‘2’ in the ‘number of buildings’ column. He also filled in the number of floors of the two buildings, ’31’ and ‘9’ floors.
Then, with Xie Jie’s help, he filled in many details into the software according to the system prompts.
Thirty minutes later, most of the information was filled in.
“Relevant information has been filled in. Do you want to intelligently generate a building model? After the building model is produced, you can modify the relevant parameters and adjust the building model. You can also directly modify the model until you’re satisfied.” Li Chengqian clicked ‘confirm’. On the big screen, the piece of ground that was floating in the void suddenly changed. The roads, plazas, greenery, and other facilities on the ground were planned. Then, two beautiful futuristic buildings appeared out of thin air and stood on this piece of land.
The image on the big screen looked very realistic, just like a photo. “This rendering effect is superb!” Lei Che couldn’t help but exclaim. He didn’t understand architecture CAD, but he knew game rendering. This rendering effect was definitely top-notch in the game.
The untrained eye will focus on the form. The trained eye will focus on the substance. After the 3D model was produced, Xie Jie stared at the layout on the big screen and was extremely shocked.
The distance between buildings, the width of the roads, and the fire safety lanes all meet the statutory requirements of the country.
The design of the staircases, the emergency evacuation passages, and the windows are fully in compliance with the national statutory requirements.
The lighting, ventilation, and other indicators that designers usually found the most challenging had all been optimally designed. The automatically generated floor plans only required minor adjustments and they could be used.
It could be said that the 3D model provided by Li Chengqian could save him three months of floor plan design time. “President Li, can you send this 3D model to me? If I draw the construction diagram according to this 3D model, I can save three months of work,” Xie Jie said excitedly. “President Li, are you selling this automatic planning and rendering software to the public? How much is it?” Xie Jie looked at Li Chengqian with some yearning. For designers or design companies, the Intelligent CAD software was a formidable tool. As long as they fed it with the basic information, chose the design direction, purpose, and input the construction scale, the system could automatically generate a plan that complied with statutory requirements. The 3D model that was produced had achieved the optimal outcome for all parameters, and the layout was practicable and feasible. It was unbelievably advanced.
The most advanced AUTO CAD overseas was like an abacus in front of a computer when compared to the Intelligent CAD. It was not a product of the same era at all.
With such advanced design tools, the design efficiency could be greatly increased. The designs would also be safer and more scientific.
“Xie Jie, why do you still need to draw the plans? I’m developing an Intelligent CAD software, not just a 3D modeling software! 3D modeling is just the first step.”
“Next, we need to adjust the unsatisfactory portions of the automatic 3D model generation module. After the adjustment is completed, the Intelligent CAD will automatically perform mechanical calculations…”
“The construction blueprint will automatically be generated in accordance with the results of computational mechanics. You don’t need to draw the construction blueprint at all. Just let the computer do this kind of repetitive work.
What you need to do is review the construction blueprint and see if there are any problems.’ “What? This is so advanced!” Xie Jie was taken aback by Li Chengqian’s words. He looked at Li Chengqian in disbelief, his face full of disbelief.
The situation Li Chengqian described was simply like a fairy tale! this computer-assisted design? It had already risen to the level of automatic computer design!
How was As far as he knew, the west had not invented such an advanced design software! Lei Che was also stunned by the Intelligent CAD’s 3D modeling ability. He suddenly stood up from his seat and stared at the big screen. Lei Che had developed games before and had dabbled in 3D modeling. As far as he knew, there was no 3D modeling software that could produce 3D models at the speed that he had just witnessed on the big screen.
This software was definitely nuclear weapon level when used in games.
