"Is there no way to bypass the lithography machine for manufacturing chips?" Li Mo asked in confusion. He spent hundreds of years using Moxing batteries to bypass the technical barriers of fuel engines built by the fuel engine. Perhaps there are the same shortcuts in the chip industry.

President Ren shook his head with a wry smile, "Electronic computer technology is extremely mature, and it is not easy to overthrow and rebuild."

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, frowned and said, "There is one way, that is, to develop quantum computers. But the development of the quantum field is very slow and is still in the theoretical stage."

Li Mo was not surprised that quantum computers would be a substitute for electronic computers.

Modern electronic computers use binary system when processing information, that is, 1 and 0. The smallest unit of a computer is bits. Because the computer is binary, this bit is either 1 or 0, and there are no other options.

In quantum computers, any microscopic particle and quantum are in a superposition of multiple states before it is observed, that is, microscopic particles and quantum cannot be determined before it is observed. Then in computer information processing, the existence of bits as quantum cannot be determined before it is observed, that is, before the bits are observed, it may be 1, 0, or both 1 and 0.

Assuming that a memory of n physical bits, if it is an electronic computer memory, it can only store any one of 2^n possible data. If it is a quantum computer memory, it can store 2^n numbers at the same time, and as n increases, its ability to store information will increase exponentially.

In short, quantum computers have much more computing power than electronic computers.

But why such an excellent computer has not been commercialized on a large scale? The main reason is that humans have not found suitable "particles" as the "computing core" of quantum chips.

Large scientific research laboratories at home and abroad have begun to try to make quantum computers many years ago, but so far, only a few have produced "semi-finished products". For example, at CES in 2019, ibm announced the launch of the world's first quantum computer, ibmqsysteme. But the reality is that this "quantum computer" is as big as an elephant, and its computing power is not as good as a netbook.

Some media pointed out mercilessly that quantum computing systems like qsystemone are still experimental. When it comes to real-life computing, your laptop may be more powerful.

So Mr. Ren is so unconfident in the research of quantum computers.

"I won't talk about this anymore. Do you have any new goals in your laboratory?" He saw Li Mo fall into deep thought and asked on his own initiative.

Li Mo smiled slightly: "I didn't have it, but now I have it."

Just now, Li Mo flashed his mind and thought of a solution to the "quantum computing core".

"What is it?" President Ren asked anxiously.

"Keep confidential!" Li Mo replied. His idea was only one idea, and the specific one needs to be verified by theory.

Mr. Ren, who was rejected by him, did not show any anger because he knew that the young man in front of him was full of too many wonderful ideas. How great would it be if he insisted on investing in Mozi Technology Laboratory at that time... Mr. Ren felt that this was his biggest mistake in the business world over the years.

"Mr. Ren, I still have something to do, so I won't stop for more."

With a new goal, Li Mo did not stop for a moment and went straight to the laboratory. He wanted to verify his thoughts through mathematical calculations.

"Boss, you are back." Zhang Xiaoli was sorting out the office. When she saw him coming back, she took the initiative to greet her.

"Well, inform the official lab members to come to my office for a brief meeting." Li Mo sat in the chair and took a sip of tea.

Before "retreatment", he needs to arrange the work content of the laboratory.

After a while, Jingjing, the three-person eye bag, Zhou Dafang's senior brother, and two new experimenters Wang Xiaochuan and Liu Lei came to the office one after another.

"Boss, is there a new project?" Jingjing asked anxiously when she stepped into the office. Mo Xing's battery had been mass-produced, but it made her idle.

Li Mo shook his head. He didn't want anyone to know his plan until the mathematical calculation verification was completed.

Jingjing's face was dim.

The people have arrived, Li Mo said, "Let me start to assign tasks for the next period of time."

"Jingjing, Liu Mingrui, Liu Hao, Liu Xuanchen, you will perform secondary optimization of Moxing battery in the next period of time."

Li Mo has a problem that he has never understood. Although the Mo Xing battery is based on the remains of alien batteries, why is the performance difference so big? He once tested that only half of the energy storage space of alien batteries is intact, but it can store 300kwh of electricity. However, the same volume of the Mo Xing battery produced can only store 200kwh of electricity.

"Do you still need to optimize? Our batteries are far better than ordinary batteries." Liu Mingrui asked with his hand. They had already made an optimization before Moxing battery mass production. And in his opinion, continuous optimization without competitors is a waste of resources.

"Although the current Moxing battery is enough to meet the use of cars, large trucks, excavators, and even heavy mining machinery, what if I want it to be installed on a rocket?" Li Mo finally "counterfeited" an alien technology product. If he could not exert its full strength, he felt unwilling to accept it.

"Rockets?" The three-person eye bags widened their eyes, "The boss wants to make the Rockets?"

"Metaphor!" Li Mo was also helpless about this mechanical fool, "Do you know just about metaphor?"

"Anyway, I think Moxing battery still has huge potential but has not been discovered!"

The eye bag trio nodded and accepted the task.

"Zhou Dafang, Wang Xiaochuan and Liu Lei, your task is to study the quantum algorithms that appear in the world at present." Li Mo continued, Wang Xiaochuan graduated from Princeton's mathematics doctoral degree, and Liu Lei is a postdoctoral fellow in informatics at Columbia University. They are all talents recruited by Li Mo through Yan University.

"Quantum algorithm?" Zhou Dafang hesitated for a moment. He was just a math dog. If he had mastered computer programming, he had already entered those Internet giants. Has he still used to endure the mathematics department for so many years? But he was used to obeying orders and nodded.

Liu Lei showed joy on his face. He had been in the laboratory for half a month, eating customized recipes every day and a special fitness coach. People who don’t understand the truth think he was in a sanatorium. Now it’s finally time for him to show his skills.

Wang Xiaochuan, like Zhou Dafang, looked confused.

"I ask you to focus on algorithms, not grammar." Li Mo reminded that the reason why he arranged two doctors in mathematics to study quantum algorithms is that the essence of computer programs is programming algorithm ideas, not grammar. The foundation of algorithm ideas is mathematics.

"Okay, everyone will leave the meeting." Li Mo likes to hold a short meeting.

"Zhou Dafang, what else do you have?"

Just as everyone was about to leave, Zhou Dafang slowly raised his hand.

"Boss, thank you!" Zhou Dafang bowed deeply to Li Mo.

Jingjing next to him was stunned. Unexpectedly, the nerd who always seemed honest was so good at flattering.

"Senior Brother, what are you doing?" Li Mo asked in confusion. In his impression, he did not do anything special for this senior brother.

"Thank you for the special bonus." Zhou Dafang's eyes were wet, "I used the bonus and years of savings to buy a house in Yanjiao real estate. My girlfriend, who has been in love for many years, finally decided to marry me."

It turned out that it was for the bonus. After the Moxing battery was developed, Li Mo decided to award a special bonus of 1 million to each of the laboratory members. At that time, Xia Qing believed that Zhou Dafang, as a candidate mathematician, had no particularly important role in the research process and the bonus should be reduced by half. However, at Li Mo's request, Zhou Dafang still received the full bonus of 1 million.

"I feel ashamed of this 1 million bonus." Zhou Dafang sobbed, "But I really need this money. My girlfriend and I have been in love for ten years, but my mother-in-law asked not to get married without a house."

"But how could I buy a house in Yanjing with my meager allowance?"

"I finally made a down payment at 8 Ring Road with the 1 million bonus plus years of savings."

Outside the 8th Ring Road? Li Mo asked in confusion: "How much does the house cost?"

"3.1 million." Zhou Dafang finally handed over the tissue that he quietly wiped his tears.

"How much does the down payment have?" Li Mo asked.

"30%." Zhou Dafang replied.

The house price of 3.1 million yuan, 30% down payment, that is 1.03 million yuan. Zhou Dafang’s savings over the years are only 30,000 yuan?

"You only have 30,000 yuan in savings over the years?" Li Mo asked in disbelief.

Zhou Dafang shook his head and corrected: "It's 30,600, and I still have 6,000 on it now."
