Zeng Xin, the former vice president of Daxia Panda Electronics Group and now the president of Yunzhong Jiulong Big Data Company, personally welcomed Gu Qing's arrival.

"The test will start in three hours. Our company's researchers and programmers are already doing final inspections with your company's team."

As the force that has the closest cooperation with Kyushu Technology on the planet, Daxia's military is unable to independently produce high-performance semiconductor chips due to resource constraints, but it cannot stand up to Kyushu Technology's strong foundation.

Although Daxia’s supercomputers have a great reputation, they all use foreign company processors.

Gu Qing met Han Da, the person in charge of the Yunzhong Jiulong supercomputing project. This middle-aged man with a rather bookish temperament was orderly directing everyone in the supercomputing project.

In fact, Cloud Jiulong has been building a server fleet. Whether it was purchasing foreign servers before or when Jiuzhou Technology was able to entrust Xiaxin Technology to OEM the Rocky X1, Cloud Jiulong's computing power has been growing steadily.

The establishment of a supercomputer this time is more for the reform of the carbon-based semiconductor industry in Daxia.

The components of supercomputers and ordinary computers are basically the same, but the differences in performance and scale are huge.

And the fields of supercomputing applications are not all high-end projects such as nuclear explosion algorithms and aircraft manufacturing. There are also many projects close to industry and life.

The carbon-based semiconductor industry has a huge amount of data that needs to be calculated, such as quantum mechanical calculations of the basic properties of atoms, molecular dynamic simulations of material reaction processes, logic and operation calculations in chip design...

These complex problems that require extremely high confidentiality naturally require more powerful supercomputing brains to solve them.

Naturally, Yunzhong Jiulong will not have the false reporting style of some companies. After the preparation work was completed, Han Da said to Gu Qing: "Thank you very much for the structure and Baize processing program you provided. I believe that Yunzhong Jiulong No. 1 supercomputer Prison Niu will definitely be able to make achievements for the carbon-based semiconductor industry in Daxia."

As an old man in the supercomputing industry, Handa has already been told by practice that key core technologies cannot be obtained, bought, or begged. Only by keeping key core technologies in our own hands can we fundamentally ensure national economic security, national defense security and other security.

The Yunzhong Jiulong No. 1 supercomputer prisoner cow project is a super project that makes him unable to sleep peacefully every night.

It consists of 80 cellular computing cabinets and 9 network cabinets.

Each computing cabinet is about the size of a household double-door refrigerator, but has a honeycomb-like hexagonal structure.

Open the cabinet door, and 8 super nodes composed of 32 computing plug-ins are distributed inside. Each plug-in consists of 6 computing node boards, and one computing node board contains 2 Loki x1 processors.

Qiuniu supercomputer has a total of 245,760 Rocky x1 processors, and it is truly domestically produced. From the chip architecture to the instruction set system, everything is independently controllable.

Gu Qing looked at the cluster of supercomputing processors arranged like a honeycomb in front of him and remembered a short story. With a truth-seeking attitude, he asked the industry senior next to him: "I heard that more than 30 years ago, Americans put a When the supercomputer was sold to us, the supercomputer room was wrapped tightly with opaque glass, and our country’s technical personnel were not even allowed to enter without authorization? "

Facing Gu Qing's question, Han Da nodded solemnly.

He sighed and said: “Thirty years ago, we wanted to become one of the countries that independently designed and manufactured supercomputers, but due to the shortcomings of key components and technologies such as core processors, we had to be constrained by others.

So in the past few decades, we have learned from the experience and have been working hard in the direction of supercomputing. Even a few years ago, although the semiconductor industry was limited by patent barriers, progress was not fast. However, the success of supercomputing projects such as Sunway and Tianhe has put our scientific research on the fast track. "

At this point, Han Da suddenly stopped talking and said, "Get ready for the countdown!"

Gu Qing stood aside very consciously and kept silent.

Amidst the slogans, the technical teams of technology companies in many areas of Daxia are also anxiously looking at the time and confidential groups.

For example, in Xiawei's office building, Yu Chengdong is like a child who can't sit still, standing up and taking a few steps from time to time.

Mr. Ren looked at the young middle-aged man in front of him and said, "Cheng Dong, stop wandering. Yunzhong Jiulong has not made any mistakes in so many years."

Yu Chengdong took a deep breath. "Mr. Ren, after the supercomputer establishment in Yunzhong Jiulong is completed, our project will begin to officially advance. Let's——"

Suddenly, Hegang, an executive of Xiawei Company, slapped his thigh and said excitedly: "It's online!!! Hold the grass!"

"They are really there. They have actually successfully formed it and the quota will be opened soon."

"All built using a customized version of the Loki times, and the performance/watt ratio is 9.051 billion times per watt.

For the first time, Daxia Carbon-based Semiconductor Alliance partners have been opened. "

Hegang became more and more excited as he talked, and even clapped his hands and applauded.

Yu Chengdong heard this data from the side and quickly sat down to read the group announcement.

In this group, under the announcement issued by Yunzhong Jiulong official account, there is a series of +1 nonsense words such as "Come on" and "Good job!".

After Yu Chengdong read the data of the Yunzhong Jiulong No. 1 supercomputer prisoner cow, he looked a little dazed.

However, Mr. Ren, who had already relieved his heavy burden, looked at all this and took a sip of tea happily.

"This young man is really capable. Times make heroes, and heroes make times. Talented people emerge from generation to generation, and each leads the way for hundreds of years."

At this moment, the underground supercomputing base of Jiulong in the Cloud.

Mr. Zeng of Yunzhong Jiulong, after being happy for a while, started to get busy with work.

Gu Qing took one last look at the computer room of Super Computing Prisoner Niu, and after confirming that his initial idea was confirmed, he said hello to the person in charge, Han Da, and left Yunzhong Jiulong.

As soon as he returned to the office of Jiuzhou Technology Community, he saw Li You walking towards him.

"Mr. Gu, if this continues, our research and development progress will stagnate.

The cooperation between foreign companies and domestic friends in Daxia has almost mobilized most of the backbone of our semiconductor department. Sometimes we even encounter some technical problems and localization difficulties. Our R&D personnel have to work as the company's sales staff to provide services. They sell equipment and technology.

Although the company rewards a lot of shares, our semiconductor department is still a department focused on R&D and manufacturing, not sales and customer service. "

Facing Li You's complaint, Gu Qing shook his head.

"I know this situation, but we still need to be patient at this stage. Daxia's semiconductor talents have been exhausted by us and our friends, and even undergraduate students have reserved their places.

Talents are not crops that can be harvested three times a year. Let everyone be patient. After this year is over, the semiconductor sector will no longer need such large-scale expatriation.

Li You sighed quietly, but he also knew that this was indeed the case.

Although companies such as Korean Star and Nvidia have been secretly cracking the reverse-engineered Daxia chips, their own companies' anti-cracking work is really good.

Hardware locks, software locks, and original dynamic logic program locks. These anti-cracking measures prevent foreign companies like Korean Star from cracking and learning anything at all.

Precisely because the protection work has been done so well, it is now necessary to teach these poor enterprises, starting from the most basic steps step by step.

This is really embarrassing.

"By the way, the supercomputer in Jiulong in the cloud has been successfully run for the first time. Some of the calculation projects of the carbon-based semiconductor project can be done there."

Li You's eyes lit up when he heard the news.

"Is it successful? I just finished dealing with the Korean Korean problem. I didn't expect Yunzhong Jiulong to progress so quickly."

In response, Gu Qing sighed: "After all, the military is responsible."

Li You nodded, and then left happily.

And Yunzhong Jiulong’s No. 1 supercomputer prisoner cow is still drinking its first sip of liquid since its launch.

The sun sets in the west and falls into silence.

The purified water sponsored by Wahaha circulates in Qiuniu's fleet, taking away a large amount of heat, and then circulates through the heat dissipation pipes to the hot water boiler room of Jiuzhou Community.

Hundreds of engineers stick to their posts like soldiers, checking data, monitoring temperature changes in real time, peak adjustment, power consumption detection, and even the temperature of each connection point, which affects the minds of many people.

Although Gu Qing left here, Zeng Xin also ran out to handle business. But Han Da and the engineers never left.

This is an invisible war.

The announcement in the group is just a clarion call for charge. Only when the calculation of the first internal project passes the review can the real war begin.

In their eyes, this supercomputer cluster is a weapon! It is a sword sharper than the mighty Taihu Light.

With the formal operation of the calculation project, various data entered the formula and began calculation, and the server's paper data turned into actual results.

Then, Han Da and other engineers discovered an incomprehensible phenomenon.

According to Qianniu’s paper data, the peak calculation speed is 3.241 trillion times per second, and the sustained calculation speed is 2.031 billion times per second.

But in actual operation, the peak calculation speed of this supercomputer can reach 4.116 trillion times per second, and this peak is still jumping, and the continuous calculation speed has never been lower than 2.561 billion times per second...

What is the concept?

The Sunway TaihuLight, a Daxia artifact, has a peak performance of only 1.25 billion times per second and a sustained performance of 9.3 billion times per second.

The combined computing power of Shenwei and Tianhe cannot defeat this cow?

And Han Da thought of more.

As the core person in charge of the Prison Cow project, he clearly knows that Prison Cow can grow!

The processing units built by the Loki

Peak computing power?

That thing only needs to keep stacking computer units to keep breaking through!



This matter was so important that at first everyone just wanted to go through the process, report it, and then celebrate happily.

But when the results came out, the top student he raised suddenly became a literary star and came to earth and won the top prize.

Naturally, this news cannot be treated as a normal project.

First, the departments directly under Yunzhong Jiulong were awakened, and then Mr. Zheng who was far away in the Gobi Desert of Anxi Province.

As a high-level person who strongly supports Yunzhong Jiulong, he naturally has special channels and superficial knowledge.

After learning that the project was successful, the old man seemed to make a casual phone call to Gu Qing.

"You're such a good boy. The prison cow project in Yunzhong Jiulong has been completed. When are you free to come over and see the team we're working with?"

Gu Qing was woken up by the phone call, but when he saw the caller's name, he didn't feel angry.

After all, people of such an age are staying up late to work. What should he, a young man, have to be angry about?

And when he heard the news about his team, his mood became better.

"I'll come over when the semiconductor side of things is finished."

"Well, that's it."

Unexpectedly, Mr. Zheng hung up the phone immediately after calling him vigorously and resolutely.

Meanwhile, the news is still brewing.

Back then, the success of Tianhe and Shenwei could easily make all kinds of headlines, let alone Prison Niu?

However, Prison Niu's information is still highly confidential at present, and the Daxia Carbon-based Semiconductor Group is all "comrades" who have signed confidentiality agreements, so the news has not leaked out yet.

As the news is reported layer by layer, some departments will naturally hold expert symposiums to discuss the authenticity of the news and its impact on the project.

After all, supercomputing is really difficult to say it is difficult, but it is easy to say it is actually relatively simple.

Because in today's commercial economy and society, there are already mature business solutions in the world that can be "taken and used", but it is too difficult to achieve top-notch levels without falsely reporting data.

What's more, this data called Prison Niu Supercomputing is so outrageous that it suppresses the power of God.

At this time, the benefits of Gu Qing delegating power to Yunzhong Jiulong became apparent.

The pressure from the academic community and the pressure from relevant departments were all shouldered by Yunzhong Jiulong. As a technical partner, he himself had extremely high confidentiality authority and was naturally able to "sleep peacefully".

But Zeng Xin, Han Da and others do not have such an easy life.

October 3rd.

Yunzhong Jiulong welcomed a group of "old scholars" and inspection teams from relevant departments.

Among the crowd, a young man born in the 1980s stood out.

Fu Haoheng is a "junior born in the 1980s", but he is one of the leaders of Sunway Taihu Light.

He is currently the deputy director of the Daxia Supercomputing Wuxi Center and a permanent professor in the Department of Earth System Science of Aoki University. He is also one of the "main players" of this expert inspection team.

Facing the inspection, Han Da said magnanimously: "Real gold is not afraid of fire, but everyone must complete the confidentiality course and sign a confidentiality agreement before entering the underground base."

Although Fu Haoheng has the arrogance of a genius, he is not a fool.

He nodded to the seniors behind him and agreed.
