Interstellar Energy Tycoon - Chapter 259
c259 Supercomputing simulation
In fact, after more than ten years of development, chip technology has almost reached a bottleneck stage. No matter how much research and breakthroughs are made, the engraved lines inside the chip can hardly be lower than 3 nanometers, even if new materials such as graphene are used. , it is impossible to reduce the size of the transistor. At most, it is possible to increase the operating frequency of the chip, reduce heat generation and temperature, or even incorporate some superconducting materials to reduce the internal resistance.
The way to effectively improve chip performance is to continue three-dimensional stacking and increase the number of layers.
From 24 and 36 floors, we will find ways to increase the number to 64, 128 and even 256 and 512 floors.
The technology of Xingyuan Bingyun Company can produce 1024-layer super chips while ensuring that the chip yield rate is no less than 50%.
Equivalent to a chip equivalent to 0.1 nanometers.
The performance is also extremely exaggerated. It can easily score millions or tens of millions. The performance is so powerful that it far exceeds the technology of other chip companies.
The reason why we can do so well.
On the one hand, it is because it is backed by Xingyuan Group and has received support from various aspects such as capital, technology, and talents. If there is any shortage of funds, there will be funds, and whatever is needed will be provided. Even if you encounter problems of one kind or another, Xingyuan Group will take care of everything behind you. It is not a problem at all. This is unmatched by other chip companies. Even if Xingyuan Bingyun Company has no profits for a long time, it can still receive full support without any worries.
On the other hand, the most advanced and cutting-edge material support can be used, such as various ultra-high-purity materials. Xingyuan Group’s own space factory can produce them in large quantities to meet Xingyuan Bingyun Company’s requirements for special materials. There are no restrictions on demand at all. You can provide as much as you want without worrying about insufficient new materials.
Even in terms of the market, Xingyuan Group will take precautions and place a lot of chip orders, so that Xingyuan Bingyun can have a large number of chip orders no matter it is in the off-season or peak season, whether the market is booming or depressed, and there will be no orders. If it’s not enough, consider layoffs.
Summarize the above.
Xingyuan Bingyun Company’s technical strength is difficult to be surpassed by its opponents, and it has gradually won most of the high-end chip market. It earns at least two to three hundred billion in net profits every year, and the cost is very low, so the net profit The rate is quite high. There are hundreds of billions of cash flows lying around in corporate accounts all year round. Even if there is no income for three consecutive years, there will be no crisis of closing down.
It also allowed Nan Yibing to have the resources and energy to engage in various aspects of technical research, and even delve into something cross-border, with sufficient resources to satisfy his curiosity.
You must know that Nan Yibing is over fifty this year, and in a few years she will be a sixty-year-old old lady. But as a scientist, his lifespan is usually very long, and Nan Yibing pays great attention to it. After rest, exercise and maintenance, I still look like I am in my forties, still relatively young. My inner curiosity has not been wiped out by the trivial daily life, and I am still eager to pursue some truths.
The only thing I feel a little apologetic about is that I feel I have lost money to my son and daughter. I cannot give them a complete family, leaving them with only maternal love and not much fatherly love. Therefore, I usually dote on my two children, especially my daughter. Xingyao is extremely doting, but she has higher requirements for her son Xinghang. After all, his son will inherit the family’s property in the future, so he must be capable and prestigious. Only in this way can his son succeed when he retires. When taking over, you will not encounter various problems and your subordinates will not be very unconvinced.
While researching the ‘star core crystal’ material, Nan Yibing immediately saw an opportunity.
A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Because if you want to fully tap the application potential of this material, you need to build a supercomputer with sufficient computing power.
This kind of supercomputing requires the use of a large number of state-of-the-art chips, and the cost is also very high, at least tens of billions or even higher. Not many institutions can afford this money.
But if Xingyuan Bingyun Company builds this supercomputer in person and uses chips manufactured by its own company, the cost can be saved a lot. Three to five billion will be enough.
It can also seize the opportunity to avoid other competitors who have figured out the application method of ‘star core crystal’ in advance and stimulate the potential of this material. Then it will not be so easy for latecomers to catch up. The first-mover advantage is always better than that of the latecomers. It’s much better to take advantage.
That being the case.
Nan Yibing immediately announced that there was a slight problem in the production of the most high-end chips, and it was impossible to ship them in large quantities. Then he recruited a group of top supercomputing talents and built a computer with a computing power of 1 trillion times. The above super AI computer.
Then build a highly simulated virtual world that is infinitely close to reality.
Then he purchased several ‘star core crystals’ at a high price, input various physical and chemical properties parameters of the crystals into the supercomputer, and constructed pieces of virtual ‘star core crystals’ in the virtual world. ‘, and then put on a highly realistic virtual helmet and enter the virtual world for research and simulation.
There are only five such helmets in total.
Nan Yibing originally wanted to enter the virtual world and participate in the in-depth analysis of the ‘Star Core Crystal’. However, as she was older and stayed in the virtual world for a long time, she was prone to dizziness and discomfort. She had to Does not exit the game.
My son Nan Xinghang has very strong adaptability. He can wear the virtual helmet for three to five hours and adapt quickly to various activities and operations in the virtual world without any negative effects.
Nan Yibing gave him the most important research and development work, allowing him to give full play to his imagination and find ways to tap the huge potential of the ‘star core crystal’.
As for Nan Xinghang, who is less than ten years old, he is still just a child in terms of age and cannot bear such a difficult task. However, he is not a child from an ordinary family. He has received elite training since he was a child and knows how to He has more things than the average child, has a very high scientific literacy, and has great dreams and pursuits. Mere research work is nothing to him and has no difficulty.
After delving into the virtual world for a while.
It was mediocre at first, with no breakthrough, which was frustrating.
But later on, Nan Xinghang didn’t like the kind of experiments that were too stylized and boring. He simply used his imagination and regarded the ‘star core crystals’ as some kind of ‘cosmic gems’ containing superpowers. , can bring powerful superpowers.
But he also believes that those so-called superpowers, in essence, do not break away from the category of basic forces and can still be explained by science.
For example, if you use the ‘Cosmic Gem’, your strength can become very huge, and you can easily lift objects of tens or even hundreds of tons. This is ordinary mechanical force or muscle strength, it is just larger and exaggerated, but as long as the ‘Cosmic Gem’ ‘It’s not an exaggeration to be able to bring this kind of power, so it can lift dozens of tons of things at once.
After trying it out in the virtual world, the smaller Nanxinghang actually lifted dozens of tons of weight with one hand, and then threw it dozens of meters away, which was jaw-dropping.
For another example, in some movies, certain villains can release more destructive lasers or currents, or even more powerful electromagnetic forces, which can affect everyone’s brain, but no matter it is a laser with high energy density, , or are they common destructive currents or more powerful magnetic fields, these are still not out of the scope of common basic forces. As long as you understand the nature of these forces, let the ‘Cosmic Gem’ feed these forces back to yourself, and then exert them to the outside world. Function means that you also control superpowers.
Southern Star Airlines gave it a try.
And then…it worked.
All of his attempts were successful.
He sometimes makes himself extremely powerful, possessing the terrifying destructive power of a tank machine. No matter what is in front of him, it cannot withstand the unreasonable impact of dozens or hundreds of tons of huge force. He is as invincible at close range. .
From time to time, it can release laser light, control changes in the magnetic field, and even release powerful current. It can be used freely and easily without causing any harm to itself.
Slowly, with the help of the ‘Cosmic Gem’, Nan Xinghang developed a feeling that he was a superman and could do anything, which was extremely satisfying.
Feel this feeling.
After controlling the physical forces, such as laser energy, electric field, magnetic field and other basic forces, he can use his arms and fingers to produce various exaggerated and cool effects.
Nanxinghang immediately told his mother these research ‘results’.
He said: “I think I have found a way to use the ‘Star Core Crystal’. Although we humans are mortal mortals and cannot control power beyond our control, the huge energy contained within the ‘Star Core Crystal’ can Under the control of mental power, we have the possibility to control more powerful forces. Although physical force, laser, electric current, and magnetism are all basic forces, including heat energy and freezing, they can all be explained in principle, so regardless of Whether it is ice, fire, light, electricity, magnetism or any other way of using power, it can all be used to bring about terrifying destructive effects.”
“If the power contained in the ‘star core crystal’ can change space, time, and even do more exaggerated things, then it will definitely have more and greater uses, bring unimaginable promotion to human civilization, and even bring Come a new technological revolution, the industrial revolution, and enter a more dreamy new era.”
“However, I have tested these effects in the virtual world. The real world may not be so exaggerated and magical. In the virtual world, the spirit can change matter and control powerful energy, but it must be difficult to do in reality, or The effect won’t be that exaggerated.”
Nan Xinghang said calmly and rationally that although he is very eager to bring the superpowers in the virtual world into reality, it is impossible. There are no superpowers in the real world, otherwise it will be chaos.
“Not necessarily. This supercomputer performs a simulation that is infinitely close to reality. The difference from reality is very small. Since you can obtain magical superpowers in the virtual world, you may not be able to do it in reality.”
Nan Yibing held her hands and thought for a while.
The next day, she asked someone to help find an uninhabited area with few people, prepared some equipment and items, and asked her son Nan Xinghang to continue trying.
Especially the most important ‘star core crystal’, a piece was specially prepared and embedded in the middle of a helmet device. Although it is only the size of a broad bean, the energy it contains is at least more than 10,000 degrees of current, which cannot be underestimated. In addition, for safety, She also didn’t dare to use a ‘star core crystal’ that was too big. After all, the human body could not withstand such a huge energy impact. If something happened, it would be useless for her to regret it.
soon.
After taking adequate safety measures.
Nanxinghang put on protective suits and helmets, and then began to try.
The first is an ordinary strength test. Originally, with his body of a ten-year-old child and a set of equipment, he could move up to thirty kilograms of items. This was his limit. But Nan Xinghang closed his eyes and sensed the ‘star’ The existence of the “core crystal” gave him a mental instruction to mobilize energy. The “star core crystal” responded and immediately gave him hundreds of times more power, allowing him to lift a piece weighing more than three meters with just one move. One hundred kilograms of items can be picked up easily.
Strength test successful!
Then, the principle of thermodynamics was imitated, and the molecules at the microscopic level were heated to obtain a cup of boiling hot water. The temperature was heated to 100 degrees. On the contrary, the molecules were reduced in activity and no longer moved rapidly, thus obtaining a cup of zero-degree ice water. This experiment It has also been successful, showing that matter in reality can be changed at the thermodynamic level.
The last step is the current test and the magnetic force test. Considering that these two types of energy are dangerous and destructive, Nan Yibing asked his son to simply simulate it. It did not produce too much current or magnetic field, and the number of experiments was not bad. , after all, both of them are tigers and difficult to control. Although they will not cause harm to the human body under the control of mental power, Nan Yibing would rather his son try more in the virtual world than accidentally fall over in reality. Che, you have to know that you only live once.
all in all!
After some experiments.
Nan Yibing came to an exciting conclusion:
“Star core crystals, a material, can not only store massive amounts of energy, but also allow humans to control and use various magical superpowers under the control of human mental power. Although it does not exceed the range of normal energy, conventional mechanics , thermodynamics, electricity, magnetism, etc., and can control all known forces. Human beings will soon become extremely omnipotent and can do many unimaginable things with a mortal body.”
“A new era is coming, and human potential will explode again, and it will soon move towards a new evolutionary route. Even mortals, comparable to gods, and superhuman figures will really appear in reality. , will bring both huge opportunities and huge challenges.”
“Even the pattern of the energy field will change. If anyone can seize this opportunity and obtain more star core crystals, the Xingyuan Group’s energy dominance may be challenged. Of course, , if these research results of ours are told to that heartless guy, I wonder how he can thank us mother and son?”
Nan Yibing rolled her eyes and showed an expectant smile.
