Chapter 267 2 billion yuan computer, foreign professor who went to China

Pudong International Airport.

Secretary Zhou walked back and forth anxiously, occasionally showing a wry smile.

"Secretary Zhou, don't worry, everything is normal and there will be no accidents."

Chen Heyu persuaded.

"Oh me! For Shanhai Microelectronics' sake, he wants to drive me out of Shanghai right now and cause such a big thing quietly. If something goes wrong, can I pat my butt and show off?" Man, he is miserable."

Secretary Zhou complained.

"Then he leaves?"

Chen Heyu joked.

"Don't make trouble. Qin Laoqiu knows that he must not be sent to the desert. He will coordinate with the power supply company and help me get the approval and transformation of the line as soon as possible."

Secretary Zhou waved his legs, looking resigned to his fate.

Shanhai Microelectronics has become the leader in China's semiconductor industry. It has successively taken over the chip foundry business of Apple, Maiweida, Lianxiang, and Dami, and its annual revenue is about to exceed 100 billion.

In 2016, the estimated revenue is 300 billion Chinese dollars!

In Shanghai, the economic capital of China, it is not a big taxpayer. Who would be willing to let it go?

"Boss, the plane has arrived."

He Tingbo walked in front and reminded in a low voice.

Chen Heyu nodded and walked side by side to the tarmac with Secretary Zhou. When the door of the cargo plane opened, dark blue cartons were neatly stacked on the pallet.

The outside is wrapped with more than ten layers of plastic wrap to make it waterproof and moisture-proof.

He picked a box at random, took out a Xeon chip, and observed it carefully. The product had been banned by the United States at the beginning of the year, so it could be purchased through informal channels, so he asked Secretary Zhou to help him. He protects us.

"You dare to sell a small piece for more than 10,000 Chinese dollars?"

Secretary Zhou looked surprised and couldn't help but complain.

"Who makes them have no core technology?"

Chen Heyu said with emotion.

20,000 Xeon chips and 60,000 second-generation Tesla GPUs, costing 800 million Chinese dollars, will be used to build 166 racks as the processor cluster of the supercomputer.

That would be the new home he was looking for for Moss!

Added to a storage node array composed of 1024 solid-state storage devices, it can provide a capacity of 220PB, thereby greatly improving data access and transmission speeds.

Further accelerate the technological iteration of artificial intelligence products!

“I wouldn’t use it to mine Bitcoin, would I?”

Secretary Zhou said suspiciously.

In those two years, the concept of virtual currency was very popular, and Secretary Zhou had to doubt it.

"The cost is 2 billion. After installation, the electricity bill will be 30,000 yuan a day, which will cost 10 million a year. How many coins can be mined to recover the cost?"

Chen Heyu shook his head, feeling a little funny.

Secretary Zhou was silent, knowing that he had gone astray, so he smiled awkwardly.

"It's no fluke that I stand out among hundreds of millions of young people. Is he now seeing success?"

Secretary Zhou was touched and showed appreciation.

If you want to increase the computing speed of artificial intelligence, you dare to spend 2 billion Chinese dollars to build a supercomputer. This is the first time in China.

"That incident was troublesome. Say hello to Mr. Qin on his behalf. He will visit you personally when he has time."

Chen Heyu said with a smile.

The county magistrate is not as good as the current one, and his connections can be seen in person. However, since the headquarters of Shanhai Microelectronics is in Shanghai, there is no harm in deepening the relationship between Yidong.

Secretary Zhou smiled and said nothing.

The airport inspector glanced over there, then turned his head again, pretending not to notice it at all. He said hello to the wrong person and had to pretend to be deaf and dumb whenever he received any goods from the wrong party.

Secretary Zhou waved his leg, and several men wearing glasses came over and began to unpack the boxes one by one and inspect the goods carefully.

Chen Heyu stood aside and waited patiently.

Most of those CPUs, GPUs, high-performance hard disk arrays, solid-state drives and tape libraries are on the banned list, so you can find a broker and spend huge intermediary fees to get them out of the Maple Leaf Country before they can be transferred back to the country in the name of speakers.

If Mr. Qin is willing to give the green light, that batch of goods needs to undergo official inspection before being allowed to officially enter customs.

Half an hour later, the inspector nodded and said there was no problem.

"Then wait for my good news."

Secretary Zhou patted him on the shoulder and led the people away.

"Good boy, go back to the company!"

Chen Heyu smiled calmly and gave instructions to He Tingbo.

"No, boss."

He Tingbo replied.

Several scientific researchers from Shanhai Microelectronics directed the workers to move the electronic components into the trucks, and the liquid was loaded into nine super-heavy trucks.

"He had some connections and hired a group of installers to help with the debugging. During that time, I kept an eye on it for him when I had time."

Chen Heyu explained.

Supercomputers are said to be popular because the technical threshold is not high and can be built up with money. However, if the construction and maintenance costs are too high, some scientific research institutions will only use them.

What's more, in foreign countries, if there is no hard connection, the first step of approval will not go eastward.

His idea of ​​using supercomputers to deduce artificial intelligence is indeed crazy and bold!

The group returned to Guanglan Electronic Port, a six-story office building in the software park that was purchased by Chen Heyu and renovated and rebuilt, making full preparations for the occupancy of supercomputers.

Hire engineers from Galaxy 2 at a high price to help Shanhai Microelectronics build a complete set of computing systems, network systems, power systems, cooling systems and peripheral systems.

It has a total of 21,248 CPUs, 63,744 GPUs, more than 20PB of external memory, 220PB of hard drive capacity, and 26TB/s storage bandwidth.

The expected peak computing performance can be as high as 1.58 petaflops per second, and the sustained performance can be 1.15 petaflops per second, which can easily rank among the top ten in the world.

Moss was not satisfied with the speed of evolution, so he used huge financial resources, material resources and connections to build a supercomputer that could be used specifically for artificial intelligence.

"Mr. He, he will return to Yancheng tomorrow. If you have any urgent matters, please contact us at any time."

Chen Heyu said.

"Okay, boss, will you attend the company's annual meeting dinner?"

He Tingbo asked.

As 2015 comes to an end, Shanhai Microelectronics has successively mastered the 28nm and 16nm chip processes during that year, and its sales have increased dozens of times. Naturally, it is inseparable from the silent efforts of countless outstanding engineers.

Promotions, bonuses, dividends, gifts, they are all available!

If the boss can be present, it will obviously stimulate the enthusiasm of the employees.

"Notify him after Yue Dingdong arrives. If there are no conflicts in the schedule, he will participate."

Chen Heyu thought for a while and replied.

When Yuan Ji walked out of the software park, he saw Ding Mo standing in front of the car, staring blankly.

"Would you like to change your job?"

Chen Heyu asked calmly after approaching.

"Hey! Besides being a driver and a bodyguard, what else can he do?"

Ding Mo was confused by his abrupt words.

"For example, the company's security and defense, am I a professional in that area? After all, in the chip industry, it is normal for a few commercial undercover agents to appear. Are you interested?"

Chen Heyu explained.

"Forget it, being a driver is pretty good."

Ding Mo didn't know what he was thinking, so he smiled happily and rejected Chen Heyu's proposal.

"Boss, please tell me if I want to improve the safety and confidentiality of the company's laboratory. He can help me introduce a few reliable people."

Ding Mo added.

"Like me?"

Chen Heyu asked.

What does he mean by his words? Are those people from the military?

"Being a security guard is no big deal."

Ding Mo nodded, patted his chest and promised,

"Are you sure you don't want to work? The salary will definitely be better than what I am doing as a driver now."

Chen Heyu asked again.

"He will fuck the driver hard! Hehe!"

Ding Mo said firmly, but what he was thinking was that following the boss, any piece of information was not the source of wealth, and nothing he did was as good as a driver.

"Follow me. Let's raise my salary to twenty-five thousand next month. This will save me the trouble of having a hard time falling in love."

Chen Heyu opened the car door, ended the chat, and left.

"Boss, he owes me a lot of money."

Ding Mo stuttered, a little embarrassed.

"How can you make money without a salary increase?"

Chen Heyu interrupted him with a smile.

"Thank you, boss."

Ding Mo exhaled a heavy breath and buried that affection deep in his heart.

…

the next day.

The sky was dim and bright, and Chen Heyu was on the plane heading to Yancheng to attend the new product launch conference of Future Technology.

After landing, we went straight to the conference center.

The time was exactly half past ten.

The conference hall is about more than 500 square meters. Compared with previous future technology conferences, the scale and grade are obviously different.

However, there were twice as many media representatives present than usual. Reporters from technology, gaming, and entertainment newspapers and websites gathered together, and there was a huge crowd.

"Holographic VR helmet, I didn't expect that future technology will be very popular by the end of the year!"

"It's not a new product. Oculus, Sanxing, Sony and Google have all launched corresponding VR products before."

"These are VR glasses, and whether they are VR helmets, there must be something to figure out!"

"By the way, have we seen the real thing? One thing I said is that it really looks like a helmet. He said it was an electric vehicle helmet, hahaha..."

Seeing that no one around him was laughing, the reporter was stunned for a moment and asked blankly: "Isn't it funny?"

"Silly! I didn't see that Gugou, Sanxing, Blizzard, and Ren Tian Tang have all sent representatives here. Can you ask for an epoch-making product that will subvert the gaming industry?"

"Redefining the game? That tone is really cool, Wow, he likes it!"

Some reporters laughed and discussed.

Since the rise of future technology, in the past few years, everything has changed from artificial intelligence to self-developed chips to VR holographic gaming helmets.

Catch up with Ouberry step by step and make Chinese people proud!

Even if one day, future technology announces the creation of a spaceship, they can accept it with peace of mind!

"Ouch!"

"No, Mr. Chen! The big boss of future technology, hurry up and shoot Donglai!"

When Chen Heyu walked into the hall, the flashing lights kept shaking. Zhang Nan greeted him and led him to the center of the first row.

"Who will be the host tomorrow?"

Chen Heyu asked casually.

"As Hong Jun was the keynote speaker, Professor Strong declined the job of preaching in Taiwan and said that the opportunity should be reserved for young people."

Zhang Nan walked aside and replied softly.

After a while, the noisy venue became completely quiet. Hong Jun was wearing a gray suit and walking vigorously on the stage.

"Good afternoon, as he introduced me, he is not the chief designer of the chip factory, nor is he an ordinary engineer at the Future Technology Brain-Computer Interface R&D Center.

The reason why his unknown person serves as the host is because the boss and management want to be lazy..."

Hong Jun spoke calmly, with a humorous shut-up style, a bit like a stand-up comedy.

"Where did he learn that? Did he go to Deyun Society for further study?"

Chen Heyu laughed out loud, Hong Jun had changed a lot.

"This time, he took over the job as a speaker and stayed at his workstation all day watching Luo Yonghao's talk show..."

Zhang Nan covered his mouth, laughed, and explained in a low voice.

"No wonder it smells so strong!"

Chen Heyu smiled casually and watched Hong Jun's performance quietly.

"Coming from the east, I would like to invite tomorrow's protagonist, the Dream game cabin. Regarding the definition of that name, I believe only those who have used it will truly understand.

He personally prefers to call it a time and space teleporter!"

Hong Jun said eloquently.

“Because it allows users to be completely immersed in the virtual world, combining VR and AI technology to create a brand new game world.

The helmet is equipped with various sensors to track the user's head movements and postures to enable interaction with the virtual world.

Those sensors can sense the user's first thoughts, such as head turning, pitching, lateral movement and other actions, and accurately reflect them in the virtual world.

By collecting users’ brainwave information and then feeding it back into the game world, that key technology needs to be thanked Professor Strong..."

The more Hong Jun talked, the more relaxed he became, and when it came to professional knowledge, he became even less confident and calm.

"Sorry, Mr. Hong, he wanted to interrupt Yidong. Is the Professor Strong you are talking about the one from Jiazhou University, San Francisco?"

A reporter from a beautiful country stood up and asked.

"No, Professor Strong is not an expert in the fields of brain-computer interface, human-computer training and neuromodulation technology, and he is an elder worthy of admiration."

Hong Jun affirmed.

Reporters from Europe and other countries were in an uproar. They did not expect that a scientific researcher from a beautiful country would actually cross the ocean and join a Chinese technology company.

When they conceived the problem and tried to figure out how to make it difficult, they found that Strong didn't come to the scene at all...
