Chapter 431

Zhou Xiao met with Director Wang in the conference room of the headquarters of the science and Technology Park of Yuanyuan group.

Director Wang brought Zhou Xiao a gift this time -- the accounting conclusion of the National Supercomputing Center on the supercomputing mathematical problems posed by biochips at the product launch site.

Director Wang showed his most sincere smile: "Mr. Zhou, I'm very happy to see you!"

Zhou Xiao also received director Wang and his party with a very sincere attitude.

"On behalf of all the employees of the origin group, I would like to extend my highest respect to the National Supercomputing Center. You are the soldiers who charge on the front line!"

Zhou Xiao is right in saying this, because the supercomputer of the National Supercomputing Center is the sea god needle of national information technology and cutting-edge technology.

The reason why Xia's information technology has not been beaten down by the United States is that Xia's supercomputer has not collapsed internationally, and the National Supercomputing Center has made a lot of efforts.

In addition, the functions of supercomputers can not be ignored in the country's high-precision science and technology fields, especially in aerospace, super materials and other science and technology fields.

Why can Xia's aerospace technology come to the forefront of the world?

Why can our lunar spacecraft land on the moon?

This is also inseparable from the technology provided by the National Supercomputing Center.

Director Wang nodded repeatedly and said humbly, "this is inseparable from the hard work of our scientific and technological workers!"

Then director Wang presented a report to Zhou Xiao and said, "after the biochip press conference of the origin group, our center immediately enabled the supercomputer to conduct a detailed and careful calculation of the Bi ternary mathematical operation process and results sent by your group company. Our data analysis group unanimously reached a conclusion, Your company's calculation method and results are completely correct! But the computing speed is really shocking! Even supercomputers need to use problems that can be calculated in two to three days. The supercomputers made by your company using biochips actually took only a few seconds. This technology is really beyond our imagination! "

Zhou Xiao said: "over the years, Xia Guo has been stuck by your country in semiconductor technology, especially in the chip industry. The mobile phone brand tassel mobile phone jointly established by us and Warwick is also facing this problem!"

Zhou Xiao said with great emotion: "the design of tassel mobile phone is absolutely leading, and its concept must be leading in the world, but what this mobile phone lacks most is chip! In fact, Warwick can design the world's leading chips, but it can't produce them. In order to produce the chips designed by itself, Warwick has done two things. "

"One thing is to send a professional team to the Bay Area in the hope that TSMC can help production, but it is a pity that others TSMC is nominally an enterprise in xiaguowan area, but he listens to the words of the Americans, because all production rules and technical guidelines for semiconductor chips mainly made of crystal materials are formulated by the Americans, The United States has a huge voice. If any chip company in the world wants to help Warwick produce chips, it must be approved by the American people. This is hegemony! "

"The second thing Warwick does is to send a professional team to Europe to buy lithography machines and invest in Xiaxin international, hoping to produce advanced chips suitable for tassel mobile phones in the mainland. However, it is a pity that some European companies will not sell lithography machines to you at all. The only reason is that you are a technology company in Xiaguo!"

Zhou Xiao glanced at the tassel mobile phone placed on the desktop by director Wang and said, "I'm not afraid of director Wang's jokes. The tassel mobile phone has been out for nearly three years, but the two generations of tassel mobile phones use the Kirin 710 chip. It's not that we don't want to replace the chip, but that we really don't have a chip available. In this regard, we are much worse than Xiaomi and other mobile phone manufacturers. "

Zhou Xiao's words were strongly endorsed by director Wang.

From a certain point of view, the requirements of mobile phones for chips are much higher than those of supercomputers. Supercomputers mainly have requirements for chip computing speed, but may not have requirements for volume.

However, mobile phone chips have requirements not only for running speed, but also for volume and energy consumption.

From this perspective, mobile phone chips are more difficult than supercomputer chips.

Zhou Xiao continued, "in this case, we can't let the chip problem drag on for decades."

"In fact, the chip problem is not only related to tassel mobile phones, but also related to the safety of the company. Director Wang should also know that the industries involved in the origin group are not only electronic consumption, but also bioenergy and biomedicine. There are a lot of confidential data. However, before we developed biochips, all these data were stored on traditional servers, and the chips used in these servers are also conventional chips of Intel or AMD. "

"What the American gave you, do you think he would leave the back door? I can't guarantee such a thing, and no one can! "

Zhou Xiao's words made people in the conference room nod one after another. It is absolutely impossible for American technology companies to kindly give you the best things.

"Since the founding of the origin group, we have suffered countless network attacks. Last week, we suffered hundreds of millions of attacks every day. In this case, it is urgent to develop our own chip!"

Director Wang nodded again and again and agreed with the original group's courage and achievements in developing the chip industry.

"Mr. Zhou, our main purpose today is to see if we can cooperate with the origin group to build a new supercomputer using biochips!"

Director Wang said excitedly: "with the computing speed of biochip, we are combining into a new supercomputer, so Xia Guo will make breakthrough achievements in basic disciplines such as mathematics, physics, chemistry and key military fields of aerospace!"

Then director Wang introduced to Zhou Xiao some favorable conditions brought by Supercomputing Center for the origin group for this cooperation.

For example, the Supercomputing Center will allocate hundreds of millions of scientific research funds to the origin group, such as data sharing between the two sides in the future.

To be fair, does the Supercomputing Center pay much on behalf of the state to the origin group?

Of course! A sum of funds as high as 100 million yuan can not be easily obtained by any company.

But is it really much?

Of course not!

The Supercomputing Center used to spend only 100 million yuan on building supercomputers.

Xia Guo has been developing slowly in the chip industry, and the production capacity is insufficient. Every chip has to spend a lot of money from R & D to production.

Compared with these expenses, the special funds of hundreds of millions of yuan are very small.

Director Wang looked at Zhou Xiao nervously. The leaders of relevant departments around director Wang from Yanjing also looked at Zhou Xiao nervously.

They were worried that Zhou Xiao did not agree to this cooperation. After all, the money was not too much for the origin group.

Zhou Xiao smiled.

This smile raised the voice of some people in director Wang of Supercomputing Center.

Zhou Xiao said seriously: "how powerful a country's supercomputer can be, to a certain extent, indicates how far the country's science and technology can go. Our country's supercomputer has developed to the present, and has made indelible contributions to the country's science, technology and industrial development! In other words, the origin group also makes use of the analysis data provided by the National Supercomputing Center for all walks of life in many aspects! "

Zhou Xiao said frankly, "if the origin group is lucky to participate in the construction of national supercomputers, it is our blessing! At present, the number of our chips is still limited, and the industrial chain of our chips has not been completely built, but the chips in our inventory can be enough to build a world-class supercomputer in the measurement center! Our supercomputer, whether in terms of stability or floating-point operations per second, will far surpass the United States and become the first in the world! "

Zhou Xiao's words have been very clear, and he also expressed his attitude to Director Wang's people. The origin group is very willing to cooperate with the National Supercomputing Center to jointly develop supercomputers.

Director Wang couldn't help but feel excited. He was very happy to look at Zhou Xiao. He didn't expect that the negotiation between the two sides would be so smooth!

But after all, the origin group has paid a lot of human, financial and energy for the development of biochips. I have a simple request. I hope director Wang and relevant national leaders can agree

Director Wang quickly said, "Mr. Zhou, if you have any requirements, we can meet them!"

Zhou Xiao said: "there are two requirements. The first requirement is that the establishment and future operation of supercomputers should involve the technicians of our origin group."

Director Wang said: "this is no problem at all. Our Supercomputing Center will fully guarantee the funds for the work of the technicians of the origin group and provide the necessary conditions!"

"The second requirement." Zhou Xiao said: "in the future, when the biochip based supercomputer is successfully built, the origin group will be eligible and unconditionally obtain all the data analyzed by the supercomputer, except those involving state secrets."

"This is absolutely no problem!" Director Wang answered very positively!

Because these conditions put forward by Zhou Xiao were discussed by the Supercomputing Center before coming to Jiangcheng.

Moreover, these conditions proposed by Zhou Xiao are not harsh at all, which makes the leaders of the Supercomputing Center and relevant national departments feel a little embarrassed.

So far, director Wang still remembers that when he was a small cadre of the Supercomputing Center ten years ago, he went to the curved area with his leaders to negotiate with TSMC, hoping that TSMC could help the Supercomputing Center produce chips designed by Xia Guoren.

Although the other party said he didn't refuse that cooperation, it was completely a lion's big mouth, and a look of cooperation if you want to cooperate and go away if you don't cooperate.

This is the other party's technical advantage and the other party's pride!

Origin group now has its own technical advantages, but he has put away his pride and is still very modest.

This may be the difference between ourselves and outsiders.

The leaders of relevant departments of the state of Xia who came with Director Wang couldn't help sighing in their hearts: "sure enough, it's better to master the technology in the hands of the people of the state of Xia!"

Although Zhou Xiao did not propose to let the National Supercomputing Center compensate the relevant R & D expenses and production expenses of the origin group, he did not even propose to let the relevant departments pay the purchase expenses of biochips. However, the National Supercomputing Center transferred the first 500 million yuan to the account of the origin group according to its own plan.

This is the first phase of building a supercomputer.

In the future, when the biochip is commercially available, the Supercomputing Center will continue to compensate the origin group according to the market price of the biochip.

With full achievements, director Wang and his team immediately returned to Yanjing. Before building a new supercomputer, the center will also design computerization for biochips and build supercomputer rooms and analysis rooms for land. The construction standards will be in strict accordance with the parameters and indicators given by the origin group, and start from the construction of the most basic computer room, There are technicians from the origin group.

Being able to obtain such perfect cooperation with the origin group, director Wang immediately reported to the superior department in the name of the National Supercomputing Center, which is also a great credit and achievement of director Wang!

In addition, the production center immediately sent out a press release to announce such important news.

The press release does not simply explain the process and results of cooperation, but uses very scientific means to predict the impact on all aspects of the effect after the completion of the supercomputer built by biochip.

The news was not without shock. The reporter of Xiaguo TV station immediately went to the National Supercomputing Center to interview director Wang and relevant technicians, and got more detailed information.

In the evening's news broadcast, the host spent five minutes to comprehensively report the R & D and production process of the biochip of the origin group and the performance of relevant chips, focusing on the cooperation between the origin group and the National Supercomputing Center, and the two sides will jointly build a new generation of biological supercomputer!

The host broadcast in a very excited tone: "the origin group will cooperate with the National Supercomputing Center to build a new generation of supercomputer based on life chip! The computing speed of the designed computer will far exceed that of the fastest supercomputer in the United States, ranking first in the world! Moreover, according to the data released by relevant people of the origin group and technicians of the National Supercomputing Center, after the successful construction of biochip based supercomputer in the future, it will lead the United States for at least 20 years! "

The host said: "the research and development of biochip and the construction of biochip based supercomputer will completely get rid of Xia's dependence on Western chips, and our country's electronic information industry will usher in the most brilliant era!"

That night, people all over the country heard a name - technology maniac Zhou Xiao!

In Xia's electronic information industry, many people in the industry call Zhou Xiao the godfather of chips!
