Chapter 653 Prisoner of the Ox

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 processors customized by foreign companies or processors manufactured by OEMs.

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 or when Jiuzhou Technology was able to entrust Xiaxin Technology to manufacture 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 preparations were 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 Qi Niu will definitely contribute to the success of Daxia’s carbon-based semiconductor industry.”

As an old man in the supercomputing industry, Handa has long been told by practice that key core technologies cannot be acquired, 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. 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 establishment of the supercomputer 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. "

The more Hegang talked about it, the more excited he became, and he 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 announcements issued by the official account of Yunzhong Jiulong, there is a series of +1 nonsense words such as "Come on" and "Good job!"

After Yu Chengdong finished reading the data of Yunzhong Jiulong No. 1 supercomputer, Qiuniu, he looked a little dazed.

But Mr. Ren, who had already unloaded his burden, looked at all this and sipped his tea happily.

"This young man is really good. It is true that the times create heroes, and heroes create the times. There are talented people in every generation, and each of them leads the trend for hundreds of years."

At this moment, Yunzhong Jiulong's underground supercomputer base.

Mr. Zeng of Yunzhong Jiulong, after a short time of joy, began to work busily.

Gu Qing took a last look at the computer room of the supercomputer Qiuniu, and confirmed that the 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 Science and Technology Community, he saw Li You walking towards him.

"Boss Gu, if this continues, our R&D progress will stagnate.

The cooperation with foreign companies and domestic partners has almost drawn out most of the backbone of our semiconductor department. Sometimes, when we encounter some technical problems and localization difficulties, our R&D personnel have to act as the company's sales and sell them equipment and technology.

Although the company's rewards are high, our semiconductor department is still a department that focuses on R&D and manufacturing, not sales and customer service."

Faced with Li You's complaints, Gu Qing shook his head.

"I know about this situation, but we still need to be patient at this stage. Daxia semiconductor talents have been plundered by us and our friends, and even undergraduates have been reserved.

Talents are not crops that can be harvested three times a year. Let everyone be patient. After the end of this year, the semiconductor department will not need such a large-scale overseas assignment.

Li You sighed faintly, but he also knew that this was the reality.

Although companies such as Hanxing and NVIDIA have been secretly cracking and reverse-engineering 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 have prevented foreign companies such as Hanxing from cracking and learning anything.

Precisely because the protection work is done too well, we have to teach these poor companies now, step by step from the most basic.

This is really embarrassing.

"By the way, Yunzhong Jiulong's supercomputer Qiuniu has been successfully operated for the first time, and some calculation projects of the carbon-based semiconductor project can be done there."

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

"Did it succeed? I just dealt with the problem of Gaoli Hanxing, and I didn't expect Yunzhong Jiulong to progress so fast. "

In response, Gu Qing sighed: "After all, it's the military who is in charge."

Li You nodded, and then left in high spirits.

And Yunzhong Jiulong's No. 1 supercomputer, Qiuniu, was still drinking the first sip of liquid since its launch.

The setting sun fell to the west and returned to silence.

The pure water sponsored by Wahaha flowed through the fleet of Qiuniu, taking away a lot of heat, and then went to the hot water boiler room of Jiuzhou Community through the heat dissipation pipe.

Hundreds of engineers stayed at their posts like soldiers, checking data, real-time monitoring of temperature changes, peak adjustment, power consumption detection, and even the temperature of each connection point, which affected many people's minds.

Although Gu Qing left here, Zeng Xin also ran out to handle business. But Han Da and a group of engineers are Never left.

This is a war without smoke.

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

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

With the official operation of the calculation project, various data entered the formula and began to calculate, and the paper data of the server became actual results.

Then, engineers such as Han Da discovered an incomprehensible phenomenon.

In the paper data of Qiuniu, the peak calculation speed is 32.41 quadrillion times per second, and the continuous calculation speed is 20.31 quadrillion times per second.

But in actual operation, the peak computing speed of this supercomputer can reach 41.16 quadrillion times per second, and this peak value is still jumping, and the continuous computing speed has never been lower than 25.61 quadrillion times per second...

What does this mean?

The peak performance of the Great Xia artifact, Shenwei Taihu Light, is only 12.5 quadrillion times/second, and the continuous performance is 9.3 quadrillion times/second.

The computing power of Shenwei and Tianhe combined cannot beat this bull?

And Han Da thought of more.

As the core person in charge of the Prison Bull project, he clearly knew that Prison Bull could grow!

The processing units built by the Rocky X1 processor can be closely superimposed like a beehive...

Peak Computing power?

That thing can break through by just stacking computer units!

…

This matter is too important. 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 raised by the family suddenly became a literary star and won the first place in the exam.

This news naturally cannot be treated as a normal project.

First, the direct department of Yunzhong Jiulong was awakened, and then it was Mr. Zheng who was far away in the Gobi Desert of Anxi Province.

As a senior executive who strongly supported Yunzhong Jiulong, he naturally had special channels and superficial knowledge.

After knowing the success of the project, the old man seemed to call Gu Qing casually.

"You are really good. The Qiuniu project of Yunzhong Jiulong is completed. When can you find time to come and see our cooperative team?"

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

After all, people of such an old age are working late at night. What should a young man like him be angry about?

And when he heard the dynamics of his own team, he became more interested.

"I will come after I finish the work on the semiconductor side."

"Well, that's it."

Unexpectedly, Mr. Zheng was so resolute that he hung up the phone directly.

At the same time, the news was still fermenting.

The success of Tianhe and Shenwei in those days could easily take various front-page headlines, let alone Qiuniu?

It's just that the information of Qiuniu is still highly confidential at present, and the Daxia Carbon-based Semiconductor Group is full of "comrades" who have signed confidentiality agreements, so the news has not leaked yet.

As the news was reported layer by layer, some departments would naturally hold expert seminars to discuss the truth of the news and the impact on the project.

After all, supercomputing is really difficult, but it can be relatively simple.

Because in today's commercial economy, there are already mature business solutions that can be "used" internationally, but it is too difficult to achieve the top level and not falsely report data.

What's more, the data of this supercomputing called Qiuniu is too outrageous, which makes Shenwei unable to raise its head.

At this time, the benefits of Gu Qing's decentralization of Yunzhong Jiulong are reflected.

The pressure from the academic community and the relevant departments have all been taken by Yunzhong Jiulong, and he himself, as a technical partner, has extremely high confidentiality rights and can naturally "sleep well".

Zeng Xin, Han Da and others don't have such a comfortable life.

October 3.

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

In the crowd, a young man born in the 1980s is particularly eye-catching.

Fu Haoheng is a "younger generation born in the 1980s", but he is one of the leaders of Shenwei Taihu Light.

He is currently the deputy director of the Daxia Supercomputing Wuxi Center, a tenured professor of the Department of Earth System Science at Aoki University, and one of the "main forces" of this expert inspection team.

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

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

He nodded to the seniors behind him and agreed.
