Life is really like a drama, Lu En sighed in his heart.

Can these be strung together?

What kind of magic does China’s quantum computer have? Can it actually enable a Japanese company to make such a decision immediately?

"Okay, Frank, I know about this, but will the Chinese technology really have such a big impact on the industry?"

There was silence on the other side of the phone for a long time this time, and then the tone became extremely sincere: "Lu En, you know, I have always regarded you as a friend, so I am actually not a professional question and don't know how to answer it. I can only tell you

You, it is said that Sony headquarters has very strong demands on Sony Imaging. Not only is it suspending recruitment, it seems that it is also asking for layoffs. And I just heard my colleagues discussing that many of the world's top visual effects companies have just called.

We’ve given up adding new people for the time being. So Luen, please don’t think about resigning recently.”

After hearing these words, Lu En finally felt the seriousness of the problem.

Luen was no longer in the mood to continue chatting with Frank. After hanging up the phone, he couldn't wait to turn on his phone and start carefully studying the videos posted by his colleagues in the group.

Although it is not the original version, the video has obviously been reprocessed using professional software, and every effort has been made to restore the original appearance of the video.

After watching it carefully, Luen had to admit that if this video really took eight hours to make, and it could take such a long time to do visual effects on any subject, then probably the visual effects companies around the world are really

There is no need to exist anymore.

According to his estimate, if his company receives a video showing such an effect, it will take about three months if everyone cooperates fully. And it may also require someone to give up their precious vacation for this.

It's so real.

Not only is one character very real, the driver discussed in the live broadcast is just a silhouette. From a professional perspective, the woman standing in front of the window on the top floor of the building, the flag fluttering in the wind in the square, the advertising screen being played on the office building on one side of the building, and

The writing below...

Ruhn believes that these are clearly visible after partial enlargement of the original video.

This kind of extreme detail, like the simulation animation shot by an ultra-clear camera, is basically the limit of what human beings can do.

He even had to admit that Weta definitely couldn't do this, and Industrial Light and Magic couldn't do it either.

Even if they are given three months, they can only achieve 80% at most.

After all, each frame of the movie only lasts for so long. Except for the key parts that need to be refined, other parts don't need to be so exquisite at all. Who the hell would be bored enough to play the movie frame by frame?

Do you stay on each frame for a long time to pick out the details?

But what he had to admit was that the machine took care of all these details, which was equivalent to achieving the ultimate in visual effects.

Something is wrong!

"Brothers, where can I see this quantum computer conference you are talking about? Give me a website address!"

After studying the video shown at the quantum computer conference, Luen, who had not spoken in the group, immediately threw out such a sentence. He copied it several times for fear of being drowned in the lively group chat.

Soon a website address was posted in the group, and Lu En connected to it without even thinking.

The speed was a little slow, but after a few minutes of buffering, the connection was finally connected.

The camera was currently showing a close-up of a man on the stage. What shocked Luen was that the man on the stage looked very young. Such an important press conference was actually hosted by such a young man?

It is indeed a mysterious Eastern country!

…

Yes, the three major live broadcast websites are already feeling the pressure at this time.

It is hard to imagine that the number of users connected to this quantum computer conference was at the lowest level when it came to the event. As the conference time went by, the number of users connected showed a straight upward trend.

At this time, the number of people watching the live broadcast of the Penguin family alone has exceeded 200 million.

Many of them are accessed from foreign IPs.

Central Media’s own website has also reached a new high, with 180 million users accessing it at the same time, which has more than tripled the number of visitors and simultaneous online users in a single day. This is definitely something worthy of being recorded in the history of Central Media.

Although in the TV media, the influence of the central media is well-deserved, but in the online media, it has always been embarrassing. It is true that no one watches the news broadcast on their mobile phones, but there are too few such people. They cannot affect the overall situation.

.

As long as the live broadcast of this press conference can make these 180 million users realize that the central media is paying more and more attention to online media, the purpose has been achieved.

Similarly, the live broadcast of Station B is probably the most intensive, relaxed and the most ridiculed.

This extremely youthful website has a temperament that attracts young people and has become the most refreshing existence on the Internet.

Young users watching the press conference here can not only learn about the most advanced technological achievements in the world in advance, but also begin to enjoy all kinds of ghosts and adaptations in advance.

Yes, Wang Yufei's performance at the press conference has been spliced ​​into various splicings and became popular all over the Internet.

"We don't produce visual effects, we are just porters of visual effects!" He threw this sentence, matched with the big screen behind Wang Yufei, and then the BGM sounded, sunglasses, a big gold chain and a cigar were added to the list, and countless coins were quickly exchanged.

.

In particular, although Wang Yufei behaves very maturely, he is still eighteen years old and has a natural affinity with the user base of Bilibili.

After all, although Bilibili also liked to make fun of one kind of big boss in the past, the youngest of those big bosses was nearly fifty years old. No matter how young he pretended to be, the generation gap could not be eliminated. Wang Yufei was different, everyone was from the same era.

People, you can spare no effort when playing, and the other party won't mind if you want to.

What's more, in the eyes of users at Station B, making fun of you is definitely a sign of respect for your way of expression.

If the opening of the quantum computer conference hadn't been so stunning, giving many young people a sense of elation, these UP owners wouldn't have bothered to edit the video of the conference.

…

At the press conference, the applause lasted for several minutes.

Regardless of whether the domestic visual effects industry is worried or not, most of the cross-border attacks have been directed at a number of foreign visual effects companies. After all, the top ten visual effects companies in the world are all foreign companies.

More than 90% of the world's post-production visual effects market is monopolized by foreign companies. Of course, it has an impact on the country, but it is not big.

For 99% of the people present, this is not bad news.

Finally, Wang Yufei raised his hand to signal, and the applause gradually stopped.

The opening of today's press conference has already whetted everyone's appetite, and of course, we are even more looking forward to the following demonstrations.

"After just introducing the application of our quantum computer in visual effects, the next step is a cliché. I believe everyone knows that the most powerful thing about a quantum computer is its ability to handle complex calculations that cannot be processed by some electronic computers. Its ability

Comes from quantum superposition and entanglement.”

"Through quantum superposition, we turn the basic unit of binary bits in classical computers into qubits. A binary bit represents the smallest unit of information, on or off, 0 or 1, and qubits are two possible superpositions."

"At the same time, through quantum entanglement, our quantum computer can control multiple sets of qubits at the same time. As the number of qubits increases, the number of states that the quantum computer can express also increases exponentially. Quantum scientists have predicted before

, the number of states that a three hundred qubit quantum computer can embody may exceed the sum of all atoms in the universe. And our Xiaozhi No. 1 quantum computer has 301 qubits."

At this point, Wang Yufei paused. The audience was about to burst into applause again, but Wang Yufei waved his hand and suppressed it.

Then he continued: "What does this mean? It means that we will be able to use quantum computers to simulate various complex scenes in nature. In the high-level direction, we can simulate the origin of the universe, and in the more realistic direction, we can simulate changes in the weather.

Make weather forecasts more accurate, or use past data to simulate the movement of the earth's crust, predict earthquakes like predicting solar and lunar eclipses, etc., etc."

"Of course, it can also be used for the research of new materials. Because our quantum computer can simulate various molecular arrangements at an extremely fast speed, and at the same time calculate the various physical properties of the substances formed by these molecular arrangements, it can make our materials

Science is developing by leaps and bounds, and the development of materials science will be quickly applied to industries such as medical care, aviation, aerospace, automobiles, new energy, etc. that are closely related to everyone’s lives.”

"But I know that in fact, after you finally come here, you will definitely not be interested in listening to these things. Because these are just descriptions. It will take a long time to be effective, but you can't see it now. You can only listen to it.

I am bragging, and if the boasted things cannot be realized, there is nothing you can do about me. So what everyone wants to see more is what our Xiaozhi No. 1 can do for us immediately? What can it bring to our lives?

Change, right?"

There were echoes from the audience.

Obviously, what Wang Yufei said touched the hearts of countless people at the scene.

At the beginning of the press conference, it started with the introduction of quantum computers' impact on the currency circle, which aroused everyone's interest. Then, it made the entire scene explode with a beautifully simulated animation video, which has infinitely increased everyone's appetite.

Although the vision Wang Yufei just described is very wonderful, it could not be confirmed at the press conference.

Even if Xiaozhi No. 1 were to simulate the origin of the universe on-site, no one would be interested. First of all, no one can prove that the on-site simulation is correct. Secondly, even if the simulated video is very exciting, it is just a repetition of the simulation video just now.

Humans are one of the creatures that love the new and hate the old. We were already excited about this point just now. It is difficult to be excited about the same point again. Especially when the video just now was almost to the extreme.

"Okay, this is indeed a difficult problem. Although I can prove that if all traffic lights across the country are connected to the Internet and controlled by our Xiaozhi, the overall traffic smoothness in cities across the country can be improved by 20% to 20%.

I’m thirty, but I’m helpless. This is a huge project. Even if I want to demonstrate it to everyone, I still need to apply for it step by step, and then test it on a small scale. Only after it’s proved can it be promoted nationwide.”

“Similarly, if I tell you that our quantum computers will rapidly promote driverless technology and use this technology to increase the efficiency of future urban road traffic by more than 50%, it will also take a little time to prove it.

I think everyone still won’t be too satisfied. So I can only think of some more difficult methods to let everyone experience the advantages of quantum computers compared with classical electronic computers.”

"So what should we do? I have thought about it for a long time, and now I would like to ask you if you still remember the scene when we released the minimalist programming software at the Xin System Conference? Yes, we invited a guest to use it in public

This software generated a small software. Today, minimalist programming has become one of the most popular software among users of Xin System. According to background data, an average of 30 million users use minimalist programming every day.

Program to design some small programs of your own.”

"Minimalist programming is indeed very convenient, but it also has its own shortcomings. Everyone knows that this software can only be used to design some simple small programs, and the games designed often have small problems due to non-standard language. The generated

Although the program has the advantages of being small, flexible, and unique, it is still not as stable as products produced by regular companies. Especially software that requires a server side cannot be too large. It is not suitable for large-scale projects and is only suitable for self-entertainment.

happy."

"Well, I have to say that I really didn't realize that minimalist programming had so many shortcomings a year ago. But the shortcomings also mean that it gives us room for improvement. So next, I want to ask everyone

A question, do you believe that quantum computers can replace professional programmers for complete programming. Not only ordinary software programming, but also writing drivers for hardware, even writing operating systems, writing communication protocols, and defining interface standards by yourself...

…Etc., etc."

After Wang Yufei asked this question, he paused for a moment, waiting for the reaction from the audience.

It was surprisingly quiet at the moment.

What does this mean?

So before the last moment of the press conference, Wang Yufei took action on the majority of programmer friends in advance?

According to what Wang Yufei said, doesn't it mean that all kinds of hardware engineers and all kinds of programmers can handle front-end, back-end, and testing in one place, whether it is ASP, PHP, Linux, C++, etc., etc., etc.

All served in one pot?

Do you feel like this joke is really too big?

It is said that when minimalist programming was launched, a group of low-end programmers not only said goodbye to overtime, but even said goodbye to their jobs directly. But this time, Boss Wang is obviously playing a bigger game.
Chapter completed!
