Agriculture Maniac

Chapter 196: Xiaoqing River News, Local Tyrants Visit

The American method of implementing the graphics card matrix is very simple.

Because the original purpose of designing graphics cards is not to play games.

Instead, it assists batch computing and reduces CPU power consumption.

That is to say, simple and tedious tasks, such as video decoding, composition, drawing and rendering, are handed over to a group of low-power CPUs, so that the main CPU has time to do other things.

Therefore, the graphics card is also called a graphics processor or a graphics accelerator.

Then, the graphics card can divide the code of an image into 8 bits, 16 bits, or 32 bits, and then process them in parallel into "pixel blocks", and then compose, draw, and render, and finally aggregate the pixel blocks to the display to form a picture.

Then it can definitely handle 'the only matrix in advanced mathematics that doesn't give people a headache'.

It's just that in the past few years, no one thought that 'assisted batch computing' could be applied to gene sequencing.

Now that American capital knows about this, they simply take out the technology and apply an operating system to it to drive the graphics card matrix, and that solves everything.

Even thanks to 3Dfx's SLI technology (flexible and scalable connection interface), that is, 'connecting two or more graphics cards together and using them as a single output to achieve enhanced graphics processing performance', the efficiency of the graphics card matrix is further improved.

And thanks to CrossFire technology, you can set up multiple monitors to partition and monitor the graphics card matrix to improve accuracy.

Thanks to CUDA (Computing Unified Device Architecture), the graphics card matrix is compiled into 'a super large graphics card', which is convenient for maintenance and management.

In fact, the above technologies have already been made public.

And it is used as a selling point for graphics cards and promoted widely.

Therefore, American capital has never thought that Sanyuan Agriculture, which can develop genetic optimization and graphics card matrix algorithm, does not even have such a simple thing.

As a result, the Science and Technology Bureau easily searched the Internet for a large number of "assisted batch computing" applications, drivers, UI operation pages and hardware design plans.

It includes:
Parallelization of matrix multiplication, such as dividing matrix A and matrix B into multiple sub-matrices, and then dividing the sub-matrix product calculation task into multiple parallel tasks, and then executing them simultaneously on the GPU processing core.

Memory management, such as partitioning the video memory, storing matrix data, and then setting up a management system to reduce memory access overhead and improve memory access data.

Algorithm optimization, such as using loop stripping, vectorization and other techniques to optimize the calculation process of matrix multiplication.

Shared storage: For example, according to the number of matrices, an additional high-speed memory is set up for temporary storage of data, which is somewhat different from the main memory.

In this way, the Technology Bureau, which exists at the theoretical level, can also have a graphics card matrix by creating a simple operating system after the graphics cards arrive.

After Yu Yang inspected the computer service center of the Science and Technology Bureau, he learned the above information. Recalling what he saw and heard in another time and space, he felt that the Science and Technology Bureau did have some real capabilities.

Of course, it is not difficult to set up a mining machine or a big data server, because these are all tricks to fool people into spending money.

There is no technical content at all.

However, what worries him is.

The Science and Technology Bureau actually knew that in order to live forever, old Morgan ordered the General Alliance (General Instrument, General Electric, General Dynamics, General Healthcare, etc., except General Motors, most of the companies with the word "General" in North America are basically invested or controlled by old Morgan) to move the photonic computer that was born in 90 and has been researched for nearly ten years from Bell Labs.

And there are ten of them.

It is intended to implement an application responsible for processing virtual data of the graphics card matrix and assisting in gene targeting.

Photonic computer!

A type of quantum computer.

In another time and space, this would also be a science fiction product.

For the first time, Yu Yang realized how big the gap was between himself and American capital in the field of science and technology, and he suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

The head of the Science and Technology Bureau didn’t know what he was thinking, he only knew that Sanyuan Agriculture was awesome and was far ahead.

Otherwise, where would the optimization and graphics card matrix-based algorithms come from?
Where do the three-line seeds and excellent breeding pigs, excellent breeding cattle, and excellent breeding dogs come from?

Since Mr. Yu has come here with great difficulty this time, he will definitely let him guide his work.

"Mr. Yu, what do you think of our performance?"

"good, very good, excellent!"

"Director Yu, do you have any suggestions?"

"This……"

Yu Yang understood advanced mathematics matrices but not graphics card matrices. He was planning to make a few more vague compliments, but suddenly he thought of the previously envisioned plan to acquire ARM.

After North America introduced the sales ban, it has become difficult to buy graphics cards and computers at home.

Even domestic computer manufacturers dare not sell to their own companies.

For example, once the coupling box is sold, it will not get any chips.

For example, although Qixi uses domestic chips, once it sells them to its own computers, the protocol patent fees and hardware technology patent fees it uses will rise sharply.

However, business development cannot be separated from computers, so the company must develop a batch of computers for office use and a batch of office software.

It doesn't need to be too advanced, just work.

Yu Yang thought for a moment and said:

"In fact, if you think about it carefully, the US ban on investment is a good thing for us. At least we can think of developing in this direction."

"Otherwise, when we become heavily dependent on computer-based office work, if North America suddenly bans us, that would be a big problem."

"Luckily, we have been using the 'improved WIN system', otherwise Microsoft would have created a backdoor for us and Sanyuan Agriculture's computers would have been hacked."

"Therefore, after finishing the graphics card matrix, our next task is to develop a chip called Soc based on the ARM framework."

Yu Yang spent more than six hours holding a simple meeting for the Science and Technology Bureau.

Subsequently, another 20 billion blue giant banknotes were allocated as research funds.

And informed that the lithography machine will arrive soon.

As for whether the Science and Technology Bureau can produce Soc...

Scientific research means spending money, and it is a good thing to do it.

If you can't figure it out, you can just use your own Subor learning machine for work.

I'm not exaggerating, it really works.

After the meeting.

Coincidentally, 20 graphics cards sent by superiors arrived at Xiaoqing River.

Dozens of iron carriages carried all kinds of packages.

There was a plastic bag containing a dozen graphics cards.

There is a snakeskin bag that holds dozens of graphics cards.

There are cardboard boxes containing high-end graphics cards.

There are also large bags of low-end graphics cards.

There are also many miscellaneous wires, many card slots of different models, many connectors, voltage stabilizers, power adapters that were temporarily collected or temporarily processed...

Yu Yang stood by the track, watching the people carrying things, and then flipping through the list. Especially when he saw the graphics card with 4MB of video memory, he finally realized how difficult it was for the East in another time and space to become big and strong.

Before leaving, he called the head of the Science and Technology Bureau.

"We can't just do it, we also need to popularize D's policies and principles and actively carry out patriotic education, so as not to raise a bunch of traitors."

"understand!"

……

It was already 7: in the evening when we left the Science and Technology Bureau.

Although it was not completely dark yet, Yu Yang felt a little heavy-hearted and even particularly depressed.

He stood on the bank of Xiaoqing River, lit a cigarette and pondered for a long time, then suddenly raised his head and looked up at the sky.

Just now, the 3D bird's-eye view in the field of vision indicated that two things had entered our territory.

But the security network formed by the watchtowers failed to capture the intruder.

In this way, if we remove the reconnaissance aircraft, only satellites will remain.

It is said that North America has a spy satellite system called "Keyhole", which can see newspaper headlines on the surface. I wonder if the other party can lock on to us.

Yu Yang simply raised his middle finger to the sky.

"When my improved Hawk becomes a super rocket using solid fuel, the first thing I will do is shoot you down!"

After saying that, he walked into the Xiaoqinghe cafeteria.

The weather has been hot recently, so many new things have been added to the staff meals.

For example, beer and various barbecues.

For example, cut up all kinds of vegetables, pack them separately, let the employees choose by themselves, then pour in sesame sauce, crushed peanuts, sesame oil, salad oil, chili oil, and mix them together to make a very rich cold dish. For example, put boiled chicken, pork head, braised beef, pickled pepper chicken feet, lung slices, liver slices, etc. separately, let the employees choose by themselves, then pour in chili oil, salad oil, sesame oil, soy sauce and vinegar, minced garlic, etc., and mix them together to make a very rich alternative "cold mixed husband and wife lung slices".

Best of all, it's still free.

Whether you are a regular worker, a contract worker, or a temporary worker, as long as you work today, you can enjoy this benefit.

only.

Yu Yang glanced at the two long queues and felt that it would take more than an hour, or even two hours, for his turn to come.

“I didn’t expect that it was difficult to get food before, and it is still difficult to get food now.”

A big brother next to him heard the sigh and looked over coldly, "Can you say it again?"

"..."

"If you keep making sarcastic remarks, I will throw you into the Yellow River tonight!"

"..."

"The factory is our home, and we all need to take care of it. Now the external forces are suppressing us so harshly, hoping that we will collapse from within. You should complain less, do more, and protect everything you have... You should know that your hard work will not only benefit you, but also your wife, your son, and your grandson... This is our home. If you have any opinions, you can write to the patrol flag or complain to the factory office. Don't mess around with negative emotions..."

"..."

Wow, the boss of the company was actually taught a lesson by his employees.

Yu Yang clasped his fists and said, "Brother, I think we should get a few blenders for cold dishes."

"???"

"Set up the blender according to the type and taste, then throw the cold dishes and seasonings in, and finally put them in the corresponding large bowls and place them in the restaurant. Whoever wants to eat can make it themselves. Wouldn't that be more efficient?"

"That makes sense... but how is that different from feeding pigs? We should focus on humanity! Look, after get off work, people line up, gather in groups of three or five and chat, how comfortable is that? Why are we in such a hurry? We work four hours a day, and we have plenty of personal time. Besides, if everything is mechanized, what else do we need? We should learn to be grateful, thank D for his support, thank the country for his support, and thank the boss for giving us a bite to eat."

Yu Yang was completely defeated.

He clasped his fists again and left the restaurant.

Faintly, I could still hear the eldest brother calling out to the staff nearby, "I feel like there's something fishy about that guy. Let's go, follow him, find a place with no surveillance and beat him up, and see if he's an enemy spy from an outside force that's sneaked in."

"Fuck, who are these people?"

Yu Yang aimed at the security booth and rushed over.

……

That night.

Xiaoqinghe Guesthouse.

Yu Yang suddenly received a call from the head of the ADM special research team.

“Comrade Yu Yang, the second prince of the oil country, and the descendants of seven emirates, visited the East and expressed their desire to cooperate with Sanyuan Agriculture.”

"That's a good thing."

"Yes, but the other party did not disclose the area of cooperation. The superiors meant that we should satisfy the other party as much as possible. If necessary, we can make a loss. The Dongfang head office will make up for the loss of Sanyuan Agriculture, and we will also give a certain amount of compensation."

"Don't worry, leaders. In order to make more friends, Sanyuan Agriculture guarantees to complete the task!"

"Wait for your good news."

The next day.

In order to welcome the wealthy guests, Sanyuan Agriculture deliberately suspended transportation and vacated the 8000-meter main road between the Yellow River and Hangai.

A grand welcome ceremony was prepared.

At the same time, he called on the entire factory: Be civilized, civilized, and fucking civilized!

9 o'clock in the morning.

Five Gulfstream business jets, escorted by three high-performance J11Bs, arrived at Shiliying.

Business jets landed in Hangai West one after another.

J11B landed in Xiaohu Town on the east side and carried out maintenance.

After all, it is manufactured in-house. Although it does not involve avionics equipment, in terms of hardware, Shenyang Aircraft Manufacturing simply does not have the corresponding metal materials and metal components.

Therefore, maintenance still depends on Sanyuan Heavy Industries.

It can be considered a small business of our own.

A little bit.

"With a piece of cloth on my head, I am the richest person in the world." The distinguished guests in white clothes, who are obviously wealthy, with red plaid headscarves or blue plaid headscarves on their heads, walked out of the business jet one after another.

Yu Yang opened his arms, "Shiliying, welcome!"

"My friend, I'm very happy to meet you." The second prince of the oil country came forward to greet him.

at the same time.

108 cannons fired in three batches.

Two Y10 transport planes scattered biodegradable ribbons from the sky.

A fat man about 1.8 meters tall rolled around, waving bamboo and twisting left and right.

Yu Yang led the tycoons, who had their eyes wide open, onto the red carpet and arrived in front of the Harmony train.

I’m afraid even my superiors can’t get it of this specification.

After a while.

Brick kiln office area-multimedia conference room.

Yu Yang sat on the left and the local tyrants sat on the right.

Translators and cameramen from both sides were distributed around the area.

"Mr. Yu, we are here only to introduce seeds. If possible, we will invest at least 100 billion US dollars in this project."

"As long as the money is in place, nothing is a problem. Just tell me what kind of seeds you want."

"Okay, we need to import some seeds that can grow food, fruits and vegetables in the desert."

"???"

Yu Yang was slightly stunned and asked uncertainly: "In the desert?"

"Yes!"

"..."

Damn, if there are seeds like this, I’m afraid the mother planet will force a third world war.

Yu Yang didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Seeing this, the second prince of the oil country said, "Mr. Yu, I know the value of this kind of seeds, and I also know that you will definitely not easily transfer the technology, but we can form a joint venture, and we can also make an additional investment of 200 billion."

"..."

"300."

"..."

"400 billion...Mr. Yu, please don't leave. 500 billion!"

"Don't worry, I'll make a call first."

Yu Yang walked out of the multimedia conference room and contacted the head of the ADM special team.

"Boss, our company really can't meet the demands of the rich."

"Involving core technology?"

"No."

"The price you gave is low?"

"Not really. The price quoted now is 500 billion US dollars."

"Hiss... Since it doesn't involve core technology and the price is so high, just transfer it to them!"
