Jinling, Quantum Computer Center!
Ye Fei and a group of researchers stood in front of a golden circular machine more than three meters high.
The machine is running quickly. Around the machine, computer monitors are connected, and many people are sitting in front of the computer and typing on the keyboard.
This is a quantum computer!
The mainframe of the quantum computer is very large, and its appearance is more sci-fi.
It's not square, and from the outside, you can't tell it's a console at all. Instead, it looks like a large hourglass.
The Quantum Computer Center is newly created, right next to the Institute of Science.
It was established with funding from the Academy of Sciences and Jinling.
"Dean!" A researcher walked up to Ye Fei and said, "At the end of the eighth round of testing, the average number of floating point operations reached 390 billion, with the highest being 400 billion and the lowest being 38 billion." Billions of times."
The quantum computer developed by Ye Fei and the others has one hundred qubits.
It is about 76.5 times faster than the world’s fastest supercomputer, 51 petaflops.
This is a quantum computer.
The higher the number of floating-point operations, the faster a large number of operations can be performed.
The faster the computing speed, the stronger the ability to process information, and the wider the range of applications.
Moreover, because the more information it processes, the more advantageous it is for quantum computers to perform calculations and ensure the accuracy of calculations.
Therefore, it is most beneficial to scientific research and is much more beneficial than supercomputing.
For example, enter some formulas.
If a supercomputer and a quantum computer have the same computing speed, the formulas calculated by the quantum computer will be faster and more accurate.
The more formulas you input, the faster and more accurately the quantum computer can calculate the formulas.
The key is that quantum computers are dozens of times faster than supercomputers.
Therefore, quantum computers can calculate more formulas at the same time and are more accurate.
Moreover, the computing speed is fast and there are many benefits.
For example, the global cyber defense network is useless against quantum computers.
In martial arts terms, in the world of martial arts, only strong ones are indestructible, and only fast ones are indestructible.
Quantum computers know how to be fast, so any network defense is ineffective against them.
Unless the opponent also has a powerful quantum computer that is close to, equal to or surpasses the opponent's quantum computer in terms of computing speed, only then can it withstand the opponent's quantum computer attack.
The other researchers were very excited when they heard what this researcher said.
"Dean, this is so fast!"
“Many formulas used to take hours to calculate using supercomputers, but now the speed has increased by more than 70 times and it only takes a few minutes to calculate.”
"Furthermore, due to the characteristics of quantum computers, the more formulas calculated at the same time will not reduce the calculation speed. On the contrary, it will make the calculation speed faster and the calculation formulas more accurate."
"..."
When Ye Fei heard what the other researchers said, he didn't speak, but frowned.
This speed did not reach his ideal speed, which was 500 billion times.
Of course, this speed is already very fast.
"Hey..." Ye Fei sighed in his heart: "I am too anxious. Quantum computers have just been developed and there is still a long way to go in the future."
Quantum computers, like supercomputers, slowly increase the number of floating-point operations as research deepens.
Ye Fei pondered for a moment and then said: "Continue the test. After ten rounds of testing, if there are no problems, we will announce it!"
Although quantum computers are very fast, they are tested in all applicable fields because they are widely used.
Therefore, each of their tests lasted two days.
When the researcher heard this, he immediately said: "Okay, Dean!"
The ten-round test was a test plan they had already decided on, which was more reliable.
After all, if something goes wrong after a quantum computer is released, it will
Cause a lot of trouble.
At this time, Geng Ye, director of the Department of Science and Technology, came in with a group of people.
"Academician Ye, how are you?" Geng Ye asked before he even reached Ye Fei.
When Ye Fei and the researchers behind Ye Fei heard Geng Ye's voice, they all turned to look at Geng Ye and said hello to him.
Geng Ye waved his hand, walked to Ye Fei, and turned to look at Ye Fei.
Ye Feidao: "With one hundred qubits, the average number of floating point operations is 390 billion times, with a maximum of 400 billion times and a minimum of 380 billion times. It can be used in mathematics, finance, biomedicine, chemistry, Physics, geography, aerospace..."
Ye Fei said about dozens of mainstream fields: "If it is a calculation as difficult as the Seven Conjectures of Mathematics, it can be successfully calculated in about an hour."
"If the seven conjectures of mathematics are calculated simultaneously, the speed can be increased by about 20%."
The calculation of the seven major conjectures of mathematics is very huge. It can be calculated successfully in one hour, which is already very fast.
You know, if you use the world's fastest supercomputer, it will take two days, and you can't calculate seven conjectures at the same time, you can only do them one by one.
Due to the characteristics of quantum computers, the seven major conjectures of mathematics can be calculated at the same time, and the time can be reduced by 20%.
Geng Ye and those who followed Geng Ye heard this, their eyes lit up and their faces were filled with joy.
According to Ye Fei, the computing speed of this quantum computer is too fast.
Geng Ye laughed loudly and said, "Okay, very good!"
Then, he looked at Ye Fei expectantly and asked, "Based on your estimate, how many quantum computers can be manufactured for Xia Guo's use?"
Ye Fei thought for a while and then said: "Santai!"
Of course, it is impossible to build only three units.
Just like supercomputer, every provincial capital city across the country hopes to have its own supercomputer.
Even if the performance is far too much, they want it.
After all, what others have is not as good as what you have.
Supercomputers will be used in many fields in each province, and they don’t want to spend money renting them from other provinces when using them.
So, the same goes for quantum computers.
Even if there is excess performance, each province hopes to have its own supercomputer.
Moreover, independent quantum computers are necessary in some places.
For example, Xia Guo Aerospace Research Institute and Xia Guo Science Research Institute.
Geng Ye nodded slightly, then glanced around and saw many researchers working, and asked, "When will the test end?"
"It will end in four days!" Ye Feidao said: "If there is no problem, it can be announced to the public in five days."
Geng Ye took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly to calm down his excitement and said: "There is no problem so far!"
"No!" Ye Fei shook his head slowly.
Geng Ye said: "Then we can start preparations now. As soon as the test is over, we will announce it immediately!"
"Yeah!" Ye Fei nodded slightly.
At this time, Geng Ye's cell phone rang.
Geng Ye smiled apologetically at Ye Fei and said, "Sorry, I'm going to take a call."
"Okay!" Ye Feidao.
Geng Ye walked aside and answered the phone. After answering the phone, his face looked a little ugly.
Ye Fei saw that his face was not good-looking, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he said, "Geng Si, if you have something to do, you can go and do it."
Geng Ye shook his head slightly and said, "Beili Country's quantum computer will be announced the day after tomorrow."
"Huh?" Ye Fei frowned instantly.
Then, Ye Fei thought about the performance of the quantum computer they developed, and chuckled: "It's pretty fast!"
"Yes!" Geng Ye nodded slightly. He looked at Ye Fei hesitantly and said, "Can't the test end early?"
"No!" Ye Fei shook his head slightly: "Testing is a must-go plan. If the testing is not completed and something goes wrong after the quantum computer is put into use, the losses will be huge."
"Hey..." Geng Ye sighed and said helplessly: "I know this too, but I'm afraid that Beili will cause trouble."
Ye Fei frowned when he heard this, feeling a little worried and said, "Let's speed up the test!"
"The four-day test will be completed in two days!"
"That's all." Geng Ye was very worried.
Beili Country, Quantum Computer Research Center!
"Mr. Hatton, our quantum computer has fifty qubits, the average number of floating point operations is 150 billion, the highest number of floating point operations is 160 billion, and the lowest number of floating point operations is one. One hundred and forty trillion times."
Riley said: "It can be applied in more than a dozen fields, especially in the fields of science, finance and biomedicine. It is very suitable for applications."
Hatton said happily: "Haha...it's so fast."
Hatton asked expectantly: "I heard that all network defense networks are ineffective against quantum computers. Is this true?"
"It's true!" Riley nodded slightly: "Even the network defense network developed based on the Riemann Hypothesis can be broken."
When Hatton heard this, he said excitedly: "Haha... good, very good!"
"The product launch conference will be held tomorrow and it will be put into use the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, Mr. Hatton!" Riley said.
After Hatton admired the quantum computer for a while, he left the quantum computer research center.
After getting in the car, he felt very proud: "We will definitely win this time. Xia Guo's quantum computer seems to have been developed, but theirs is definitely not as good as ours."
"As soon as the quantum computer is put into use, I will immediately attack Ye Fei's scientific research institute."
"I heard that the Academy of Science has many studies by Ye Fei, as well as research by many mathematicians."
Hatton has always been greedy for the documents in Ye Fei's scientific research institute.
After all, Ye Fei's scientific research ability is too strong, and as the scientific research institute at Ye Fei's base camp, the documents inside must be very valuable.
If he could obtain it, it would be of great benefit to Beili Country.
It’s just that in the past, the network defense network of the Academy of Sciences was developed by Ye Fei based on the Riemann Hypothesis. No computer in the world could break this network defense network.
But now they have quantum computers that can realize this idea.
"I don't know how wonderful Ye Fei's face will be then!"
Hatun gritted his teeth in his heart and said, "Ye Fei, you were the one who attacked us in the past, now it's our turn."
"Not only your scientific research institute, but also Xia Guo's banks, Xia Guo Academy of Sciences, and the stock exchanges in Xiangjiang and Shanghai. These are our targets."
"This time, I'm going to make you suffer heavy losses and bruise your muscles and bones, and make up for all our past losses."
The next day, the lecture hall of the Quantum Computer Research Center!
There are thousands of people sitting in the lecture hall with more than 5,000 seats. They are journalists from all over the world.
Riley walked to the stage, faced the reporters below, and smiled: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to today's quantum computer product launch conference..."
The quantum computer product launch conference is a global live broadcast. At this moment, people in many countries around the world are watching the live broadcast.
There were many Xia people among them. When the Xia people heard that Beili Country's quantum computer had been developed, many people's expressions changed drastically.
It is known that quantum computers can greatly increase the speed of scientific research.
Beili's scientific research capabilities were already very strong, and with the addition of quantum computers, they became even more powerful.
What's more, quantum computers don't stop there.
Many Xia people exclaimed in their hearts: "Oh no, something big is going to happen."
Riley said: "Our quantum computer has fifty qubits, the average number of floating point operations is 150 billion, the highest number of floating point operations is 160 billion, and the lowest number of floating point operations is one One hundred and forty trillion times."
The reporters exclaimed when they heard this.
And people from all over the world were even more shocked when they heard Riley's words.
This speed is too fast. At such a fast speed, Beili Country's scientific research speed will increase like a rocket.
Ye Fei was also watching the live broadcast at the moment. When he heard Riley's words, there was a trace of disdain on the corner of his mouth: "That's it, it's only fifty qubits, and the maximum number of floating point operations is only 160 billion."
Ye Fei chuckled and shook his head: "Not even half of our speed, only 35% of our speed!"
Ye Fei was originally worried about the quantum computer developed by Beili Country.
Now that he knows the performance of Beiliguo's quantum computer, Ye Fei is not worried at all.
"Tomorrow our quantum computer test is over, and the day after tomorrow we will hold a quantum computer product launch conference to let you see what is the most powerful quantum computer."
England, Department of Science and Technology!
Director Oro watched the live broadcast and frowned when he heard Riley's words. He was very worried: "Hey... with such a fast quantum computer, the technological level of Beili Country will improve even faster in the future."
"Beili State-owned quantum computer, what about us?"
"In the future, we can only rent quantum computers from Beili Country to speed up our scientific research."
"Otherwise, the gap between us and Beili Country will only become wider and wider."
"And we can rent it, what about Xia Guo?"
"Beili Country will definitely not rent quantum computers to Xia Country."
"Even if Xia Guo is developing a quantum computer, it must not have been developed yet!"
"Even if it is developed, the performance will definitely not be as good as that of Beili Country."
"Hey..." Auro shook his head slightly and sighed: "It's better to keep a low profile when doing things!"
"Otherwise, disaster might strike one day."
At this moment, not only England thinks this way, but many countries around the world think this way.
On the international Internet, many foreigners spoke ill of the Xia people.
This made many Xia people feel dissatisfied, and many people even scolded Ye Fei.
The next day, Beili Country, Quantum Computer Research Center!
Hatton and Riley are very excited. Today is the first day of quantum computer application. They want to see how powerful quantum computers are.
Riley said: "In the morning we will use a quantum computer to calculate the four-color problem and see the effect of the quantum computer."
The four-color problem is a mathematical problem. It is one of the three major problems in modern mathematics.
The other two difficult problems are Fermat's last theorem and Goldbach's conjecture.
The difficulty of these three questions is no less difficult than the seven conjectures of mathematics.
Hatton nodded slightly. He also wanted to know the performance of quantum computers.
Riley waved, "Let's get started!"
After a while, all the researchers began to control the quantum computer.
Four hours later, a researcher reported: "Director, the calculation has been completed."
"So fast!" Hatton said in shock.
Although he is not a mathematician, he also knows the difficulty of the four-color problem.
The four-color problem has been proposed since 1852, but it has not yet been proven.
Unexpectedly, it was proved by a quantum computer in just four hours.
Riley looked at Hatton's surprised expression and laughed, "This is just normal operation."
Hatton's heart was beating with excitement. After a long time, he took a deep breath and said excitedly: "Now I am more confident in dealing with Ye Fei's scientific research institute and some banks in Xia State."
Hatton looked at Riley and asked, "Now can we implement our plan?"
"Yeah!" Riley nodded: "Okay."
