Chapter 429 Cooperation with huge influence

In the conference room of the headquarters of the Origin Group Science and Technology Park, Zhou Xiao and Director Wang met.

Director Wang brought a gift to Zhou Xiao this time - the accounting conclusion of the National Supercomputer Center's biochips forming supercomputer computing mathematical problems at the product launch conference.

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

Zhou Xiao also received Director Wang and his group with a very sincere attitude.

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

Zhou Xiao said this at all, because the supercomputer at the National Supercomputer Center is the key to national information technology and cutting-edge technology.

The reason why Xia Guo’s information technology has never been defeated by the United States is largely because Xia Guo’s supercomputers are not defeated internationally, and the National Supercomputer Center has made a lot of efforts in it.

In addition, in the country's high-precision technology field, especially in the fields of aerospace, super materials, etc., the functions of supercomputers cannot be ignored.

Why can Xia Guo’s aerospace technology be at the forefront of the world?

Why can our lunar exploration spacecraft land on the moon?

This is also closely related to the technology provided by the National Supercomputing Center.

Director Wang nodded repeatedly and said modestly: "This is inseparable from the hard work of our vast number of scientific and technological workers!"

Director Wang then presented a report to Zhou Xiao and said: "After the biochip press conference of Origin Group, our center immediately activated the supercomputer and conducted detailed and careful accounting of the mathematical calculation process and results of the Bissan ternary sent by the group company. Our data analysis group unanimously concluded that your company's calculation method and results are completely correct! But the calculation speed is indeed very shocking! Even a supercomputer needs to be used for two to three days to calculate. It took only a few seconds for your company to make a supercomputer using biochip. This technology is indeed beyond our imagination!"

Zhou Xiao said: "For so many years, Xia Guo has been choked by your country in semiconductor technology, especially in the chip industry. The mobile phone brand Tassel Mobile, which we jointly established with Warwick, is also facing this problem!"

Zhou Xiao said with great emotion: "The design of the tassel mobile phone is absolutely leading, and its concept must be globally leading, but what this kind of mobile phone lacks the most is chips! Warwick can actually design the world's leading chips, but there is no way to produce them. In order to produce the chips they designed, Warwick has done two things."

"One thing is to send a professional team to the Wanwan area, hoping that TSMC can help produce, but it's a pity that others are nominally a company in the Xiaguowan area, but he listened to the words of the Americans, because semiconductor chips mainly focus on crystal materials, all production rules and technical standards are formulated by the Americans. The United States has a huge voice. Any chip company in the world must obtain the consent of the Americans if it wants to help Warwick produce chips. 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 high-end chips suitable for tassel mobile phones in the mainland. But unfortunately, 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 Liusu mobile phone placed on the desktop by Director Wang and said, "To say the fact that you are not afraid of Director Wang's jokes, Liusu mobile phones have been on the market for almost three years, but both generations of Liusu mobile phones use the Kirin 710 chip. It's not that we are unwilling to replace the chips, but that we really don't have chips available. In this regard, we are much worse than Xiaomi and other mobile phone manufacturers."

Zhou Xiao's words were strongly agreed by Director Wang.

From a certain perspective, mobile phones have much higher requirements for chips than supercomputers. Supercomputers mainly require chip computing speed, but may not have any requirements for volume.

However, mobile phone chips not only require operation speed, but also require volume and energy saving.

From this perspective, the difficulty of mobile phone chips is more difficult than that of supercomputer chips.

Zhou Xiao continued: "In this case, we cannot let the chip problem be delayed for decades."

"In fact, the chip problem is not only related to tassel mobile phones, but also to the company's security. Director Wang should also know that the industry involved in Origin Group is not only electronic consumption, but more about bioenergy and biomedicine. There is a lot of confidential information. However, before we developed biochips, all of these information was stored on traditional servers, and the chips used by these servers were also conventional chips from Intel or AMD."

"Do you think he will leave a backdoor for what the Americans give you? I can't guarantee this kind of thing, and no one dares to guarantee it!"

What Zhou Xiao said made the people in the conference room nod. It is absolutely impossible to let American technology companies give you the best things very kindly.

"From the establishment of Origin Group to the present, we have suffered countless cyber attacks. Last week, we suffered an average of hundreds of millions of attacks every day. In this case, it is even more urgent to develop my own chip!"

Director Wang nodded repeatedly, agreeing with the courage and achievements of Origin Group in developing the chip industry.

"Mr. Zhou, the main purpose of our visit today is to see if we can cooperate with Origin Group and use biochips to build new supercomputers!"

Director Wang said excitedly: "With this computing speed of biochips, we are combining it into new supercomputers, so Xia Guo will surely achieve breakthroughs in basic disciplines such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, and key areas of aerospace and military!"

Director Wang then introduced to Zhou Xiao some of the preferential conditions brought to Origin Group by the Supercomputer Center for this cooperation.

For example, the supercomputing center will allocate hundreds of millions of scientific research funds to Origin Group, such as data sharing between the two parties in the future, etc.

To be fair, is the supercomputing center paid a lot of this fee to Origin Group on behalf of the country?

Of course it’s more! A fund of up to 100 million yuan is not something that any company can easily obtain.

But is this fee really too much?

Of course not!

In the past, the amount of supercomputer centers spent only 100 million yuan to build supercomputers.

Xia Guo has been developing slowly in the chip industry and has insufficient production capacity. Each chip costs huge amounts of money from research and development to production.

Compared with these expenses, the special funding of hundreds of millions of yuan is already very small.

Director Wang looked at Zhou Xiao nervously, and the leaders of relevant departments from Yanjing beside Director Wang also looked at Zhou Xiao nervously.

They were very worried that Zhou Xiao did not agree to this cooperation, after all, the money was not too much for Origin Group.

Zhou Xiao laughed.

This smile made some people's hearts in their throats, Director Wang of the Supercomputer Center.

Zhou Xiao said seriously: "How powerful a country's supercomputer can be, to a certain extent, indicates how far the country's technology can go. Our country's supercomputer has developed to this day and has made indelible contributions to the country's scientific and technological and industrial development! In other words, the Origin Group has also used the analytical data provided by the National Supercomputer Center to all walks of life in many aspects!"

Zhou Xiao said frankly: "If Origin Group is lucky enough to participate in the construction of national supercomputers, it is our blessing! At present, our chips are limited, and our chip industry chain has not been completely built, but the chips we stock can be fully enough to build a world-class supercomputer at the calculation center! Our supercomputers, whether in terms of stability or floating point operations per second, will definitely far surpass the United States to become the world's number one!"

Zhou Xiao's words were already very clear, and he also expressed his attitude to Director Wang's people. Origin Group is very willing to cooperate with the National Supercomputer Center to jointly develop supercomputers.

Director Wang couldn't suppress his heart and was excited. He looked at Zhou Xiao happily, not expecting that the negotiations between the two sides would go so smoothly!

But Zhou Xiao changed the subject and said: "But after all, Origin Group has put in great manpower, financial and energy into developing biochips. I have a simple request, and I hope Director Wang and relevant national leaders can agree."

Director Wang quickly said: "Mr. Zhou, please make sure you have any requirements. What we can satisfy will definitely be satisfied!"

Zhou Xiao said: "There are two requirements. The first requirement is that the establishment and future operations of supercomputers must be participated by our technicians from Origin Group."

Director Wang said: "This is absolutely fine. Our supercomputing center will fully guarantee the funding of the technicians of Origin Group and provide the necessary conditions!"

"The second requirement." Zhou Xiao said: "In the future, when the construction of a supercomputer based on biochips is successful, Origin Group will be qualified and unconditionally obtain all the data analyzed by the supercomputer, except for those involving state secrets."

"This is completely fine!" Director Wang answered with great affirmation!

Because the conditions proposed by Zhou Xiao were discussed before the supercomputer center came to Jiangcheng.

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

Director Wang still remembers that when he was a small cadre of the Supercomputer Center ten years ago, he went to the Wanwan area with his leaders to negotiate with TSMC, hoping that TSMC could help the Supercomputer Center produce chips designed by Xia Guoren himself to negotiate.

Although the other party did not refuse that cooperation, it was a completely lion's mouth, and he looked like he would cooperate if he wanted to cooperate and he would get out of the way if he didn't cooperate.

This is the other party’s technical advantage and the other party’s arrogance!

Origin Group now has its own technological advantages, but he put away his arrogance and was very modest.

This may be the difference between one's own and outsiders.

The leaders of relevant departments of Xia State who came with Director Wang couldn't help but sigh in their hearts: "It's true that the technology is better in the hands of Xia State people themselves!"

Although Zhou Xiao did not propose to ask the National Supercomputing Center to compensate the R&D and production costs related to Origin Group, and did not even propose to ask the relevant departments to pay for the procurement costs of biochips. However, the National Supercomputing Center still transferred the first RMB 500 million to the Origin Group's account according to its own plan.

This fee is considered the first phase of building a supercomputer.

In the future, when biochips are used in commercial use, the supercomputing center will continue to compensate China Origin Group according to the market price of biochips.

With a lot of results, Director Wang and his team immediately returned to Yanjing. Before building a new supercomputer, the center will also design computerization and land-build supercomputer rooms and analysis rooms for biochips. The construction standards will be strictly followed by the parameter indicators given by Origin Group, and from the construction of the most basic computer room, technical personnel from Origin Group have participated.

Director Wang immediately reported to the superior department in the name of the National Supercomputing Center, which is also a great contribution and achievement of Director Wang!

In addition, the production center immediately issued a press release to the outside world, announcing such important news.

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

The news was shocking. A reporter from Xia Guo TV immediately went to the National Supercomputing Center to interview Director Wang and relevant technical personnel, and obtained more detailed information.

In the news broadcast that night, the host spent five minutes to comprehensively report on the R&D and production process of the Origin Group's biochip and the performance of related chips, and focused on reporting that the Origin Group has obtained cooperation with the National Supercomputer Center, and the two parties will jointly build a new generation of biochip supercomputers!

The host broadcast in a very excited tone: "The Origin Group will work with the National Supercomputer Center to build a new generation of supercomputers based on life chips! The computing speed of this design computer will far exceed the fastest supercomputer in the United States, ranking first in the world! And according to the data released by relevant personnel from the Origin Group and technicians of the National Supercomputer Center, in the future, after the successful construction of supercomputers based on biochips, it will lead the United States for at least 20 years!"

The host said: "The research and development of biochips and the construction of supercomputers based on biochips will allow Xia Guo to completely get rid of his dependence on Western chips. Our country's electronic information industry will surely usher in the most glorious era!"

On this night, people across the country heard a name - the technology madman Zhou Xiao!
