Chapter 27: The Coming Disaster
After chatting for a long time, Ye Zhou finally figured out what Ye Lan wanted to buy.
She studied finance major and had good grades. She was about to enter the preparation stage for her graduation thesis. The topic she chose was from the Financial Wars.
To clarify this topic, relying on online information alone is not enough, and sufficient data support is required, so financial instrument databases have become an indispensable investment.
However, the analysis model and historical data are all paid. Ye Lan always carefully selected and bought the most important ones. But in this way, the things he obtained are superficial and there is no way to conduct in-depth analysis.
She had been envious of this model library for a long time, purely because poverty has blocked her pursuit of knowledge.
Now that I have money, I will naturally have data.
"This thing can be bought, but if you buy it all, will you use it?"
"I can learn!"
Ye Lan replied firmly.
"So confident? It's not difficult to write undergraduate graduation thesis, right? Do you have to do it so in-depth?"
Ye Zhou was a little confused. He remembered that when he graduated, although his thesis was not particularly heavy, at least he didn't spend much effort on it.
"No, I'm not just writing a paper. Brother, you don't know that finance is actually a strategic victory most of the time. This method can only be said to hurt the enemy by one thousand and hurt by eight hundred."
"I'm curious, is it possible that we can defeat them tactically? Their financial tools are very advanced and sophisticated. If we can obtain all the data of these financial tools, will there be a chance to develop a set of tactics that will inevitably succeed?"
"The information of financial instruments is public information, but because it is too expensive and large, no one will study it carefully--I want to do this, at least, start this matter."
Ye Zhou nodded in contemplation.
What Ye Lan wants to do is a big thing, and it is a big thing that can truly bring benefits to the country in her field.
This idea is good, but the only problem is that it's a bit too idealistic.
How could she do it alone?
After thinking for a moment, Ye Zhou spoke:
"Your idea is very good, I will definitely give you the money. However, I think you are thinking a little too far. This way, you should solve the graduation thesis first, and then wait for you to graduate and then study this project slowly. At that time, whether you continue to study in the graduate school project team or go out to set up a consulting company to research, I will support you."
"Yeah! OK!"
Ye Lan nodded heavily, tilted his head and thought for a moment, and continued:
"Then you have to give me a total of 8.6 million."
"...didn't you just say more than one million?"
"Hehe, it's more than one million dollars..."
......
While Ye Zhou and his sisters were discussing how to spend this sudden huge sum of money, there have been storm within the synopsys company.
"Above 90% computing power utilization rate! Are they kidding? Why can they say this lie that can be exposed by casual testing in front of so many media?!"
"Use cloud computing to share the computing power of chip design? How can network delays be eliminated? Isn't the final result slower than local computing??"
"All model and all scenes?!? What a joke!? And sub-nano-level design models? Have they come back from the future?? We haven't made the first sub-nano-level template yet!"
Smith walked around the conference room maniily. Just two hours ago, he was called out from the dining table at home by an emergency phone call and rushed to the company to watch the live broadcast of Huaji's press conference with all the senior executives.
After the real-time translation translated the contents of the Huaji press conference one by one, the senior executives of synopsys fell into a brief silence, and then Smith's angry voice began to echo throughout the conference room.
He couldn't believe it, nor did he want to believe what was said at the press conference was true.
Because once admitted, it means that Huaji really has enough ability to throw them aside.
No, it's not just Huaji.
According to the press conference, they must open authorization to all Chinese-funded enterprises. Once the so-called Yinglong EDA is proven to be more capable than the company's EDA, it means that the entire Chinese market will be thrown away from synopsys!
This is the most obvious thing, because Yinglongeda's average quote is less than one-third of synopsys.
30% of synopsys' revenue comes from the Chinese market. If this 30% share is lost, it is hard to imagine what kind of dilemma the company will face.
Although the number doesn't sound too large, in the capital-dominated market, such a huge decline in revenue is enough to cause a catastrophe to their company.
Smith took a deep breath, and he wanted to continue to deny the authenticity of the press conference, but an old man with white hair in the conference room interrupted him.
"Smith, I can understand your current mood, but judging from the content they demonstrated at the press conference, their Yinglong Eda may really be our strong opponent..."
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Not to mention other things, they can't solve the points I just mentioned. They are just ppts made with special effects..."
Smith grabbed his hair maniily, and before he could finish his words, the old white-haired man raised his hand to stop him.
"The problem you mentioned is actually not a problem at all."
"This is bizarre, but I might as well tell you that our researchers have written similar algorithms, but because of adaptation issues, they have not yet been implemented in the software -- they can do what we can do."
"To put it bluntly, the full model scenario is just to collect all the templates for integrated circuit designs on the market. This is a time-consuming but effortless task. With a national system like China, it is not difficult to do this at most, and it takes some more time."
"I have questions about this one, but it is not impossible for it to exist."
The white-haired old man sighed and pressed out the cigar in his hand on the table.
"What about chip designs to the cloud? Is this always fake? Network delay is an irreconcilable contradiction. If the delay exceeds 50 milliseconds, the entire computing process will greatly slow down. What's the point of doing this? How could they solve this problem?"
Smith gradually calmed down, and he looked at the replay of the press conference on the screen in a drowning manner, as if he wanted to find more flaws from it.
"No, you're completely wrong. We really can't solve the problem of network latency."
"But China can solve it."
"Did you forget? They are the most mature country with 5G network deployment."
"In a 5g environment, their network delay is less than 10 milliseconds!"
Smith's body was stiff and he wanted to punch the table, but because the meeting room was full of high-level staff of no lower level than him, he ended up squeezing his fists with blue veins, and his nails were deeply embedded in his flesh.
After a long time, a roar of rage and despair rang in the conference room.
Chapter completed!
