Chapter 353 One Year Goal
"This is the first optical quantum computer we developed in China." Zhu Huagui proudly introduced to Lu Zixin and others.
In front of them, it was a larger unit, which looked like part of a complex and precise industrial equipment. However, such a big thing was just a CPU of optical quantum computers.
The overall optical quantum computer is even larger.
"Photo quantum computers use the polarization freedom, angular momentum, etc. of photons as qubits. Now, there are ten entangled photons in the international world. We are already at the world's leading level." Zhu Huagui said.
"Excellent!" Lu Zixin praised.
"Then how is its performance?" Lu Zixin asked curiously again. Since it is the world's leading optical quantum computer, its performance is already pretty good, right?
Zhu Huagui introduced: "The sampling speed of our optical quantum computer is 100 times faster than the world's first electronic tube computer and transistor computer! Only a few companies in the world can do it!"
"Awesome!" Lu Zixin gave a thumbs up. It was already very amazing to be able to do this. Every achievement of them was achieved through their own hard work, and only they themselves may know the hardships.
In addition to optical quantum computers, there are also superconducting quantum computers. Although both are called quantum computers, the implementation methods of quantum bits, that is, computing units, are completely different.
One is optical qubit and the other is superconducting qubit. It is very different from the theoretical basis to the implementation method.
"Our superconducting quantum computer can also manipulate ten superconducting qubits. We are currently manipulating twenty superconducting qubits." Zhu Huagui said, "As long as the quantum computer can manipulate fifty microscopic particles, its computing speed can exceed the fastest supercomputer in the world now!"
Lu Zixin thought to himself that at this speed, there would be no shadow of a small quantum computer in less than ten or eight years.
At present, Intel and other companies have announced that they can make quantum computers that manipulate forty-five microscopic particles, and have also announced 17-bit quantum computing chips...
This is just the information they have made public. Lu Zixin believes that in the technical data they have not released, they must have achieved a higher level. Therefore, Hongxin must overtake quickly and make it first before they can make universal quantum chips and large-area commercial quantum computers, so that they can break the monopoly of the computer industry and be at the forefront of the world.
During the visit, Dai Liangcai kept asking various questions and recording them with smart glasses. He was already preparing for Hongxin's Institute of Quantum Computers.
In this research institute, in addition to the research part of optical quantum computers and superconducting quantum computers, there are also research parts such as quantum information transmission and quantum information networks.
These are mainly developed by the Keliyun team and are not allowed to visit.
In the era of cloud data, every technology company is developing its own cloud data technology, and Keli Cloud is particularly valued by Keli Group.
According to the news they announced last time, they will invest more than 100 billion Chinese coins in quantum information, quantum computers, cloud data, etc. within three years!
Even the National Academy of Sciences attaches great importance to this investment scale.
After leaving the research institute, Dai Liangcai was deeply moved. He said: "I didn't expect that their research in the quantum field is already so much ahead of us, especially the quantum information network of Keli Group. If they were allowed to do it, the Internet operation method would have to be rewritten."
For the quantum information network, they have experimentally launched several quantum information satellites. Although they cannot see any great effect in a short period of time, as long as their technology is improved, it will surpass Hongxin's current small information satellites.
"Old Dai, how long do you think we can surpass them?" Lu Zixin asked.
"This..." Dai Liangcai hesitated and said for a while: "It would be great that we can reach the same level as them in two years. Based on Hongxin, we can use one or two years to build quantum computers to realize the manipulation of ten quantum bits, and achieve twenty or twenty-five in three years, and catch up with the international level in five years."
"Five years? It's too long." Lu Zixin said, "One year, it's made quantum computing chips, two years, it's made commercial quantum computers!"
"One?" Dai Liangcai shook his head directly, "This time is too short. Unless someone teaches us, it will be too short for us to explore by ourselves!"
"A year is enough!"
"I made quantum computing chips in one year and commercial quantum computers in two years? Hahaha!" Lu Zixin finished speaking, and someone laughed behind him.
He is an old man wearing a plaid shirt. He is older than Dai Liangcai, with deep wrinkles on his forehead and pale hair.
"Young people, it's good to have goals, but don't talk blindly!" the man said.
"Principal Pan?" Dai Liangcai shouted in surprise when he saw him, "Why are you here, Mr. Pan?"
He spoke with respect in his tone, and at the same time, he whispered to Lu Zixin: "This old Mr. Pan Qiwen, who once served as the president of Huaxia University of Science and Technology, has achieved many major scientific research results. He is now one of the veterans of the National Academy of Sciences and is well-known internationally. Especially in the field of quantum, the Institute of Quantum Computer was established under his advocacy."
Such people are already the group of people who are at the forefront of human wisdom. Lu Zixin was solemn and greeted him quickly: "Hello, sir."
"Haha, hello." Pan Qiwen smiled kindly and said, "Xiao Zhu told me that Hongxin Group is going to invest in the development of quantum chips and quantum computers. It also needs to cooperate with us. I am attending an academic conference in Canada. When I heard this, I rushed back immediately and happened to catch up."
"Thank you for your hard work, sir," said Lu Zixin. "Or why you rest for a while, we won't be in a hurry to leave."
"No, no." Pan Qiwen waved his hand and said, "Since I met it at the door, let's talk now!"
In a quiet room, Lu Zixin and the other three discussed while drinking tea.
Pan Qiwen said unconfirmed: "Xiao Lu, let me ask a bad thing. Are you really going to make quantum chips? Isn't you just a joke?"
"Of course we have to do it!" Lu Zixin said seriously, "Old Pan, I can guarantee that our next energy will be focused on this aspect. Quantum computers, cloud data, artificial intelligence, these are the development directions of our company in the next ten years! We will not shake our investments of tens of billions or hundreds of billions of dollars!"
"Okay!" Pan Qiwen shouted OK and said, "We are also scared of being cheated! Over the years, the state has been approving subsidies, but many companies are simply cheating subsidies, not caring about R&D, and wasting a lot of resources in vain!"
Chapter completed!
