Assassin's Creed Revelations inadvertently boosted sales of high-end processors in the world.
This was something Zhu Youxing had not planned before.
But he wasn't particularly surprised when he learned about this.
Originally, AI computing is very performance-hungry, and sometimes it may even eat up all the performance of the top processors.
As long as you are ambitious, no amount of performance is enough.
Take a look at Benedy's AI laboratory. He has three very high-end enterprise-class computers in the world.
The cost of each unit has reached millions of dollars.
And because of Zhu Youxing's subsequent capital injection, he has already begun planning to spend another 10 million US dollars to buy more enterprise-class computers, and then perform parallel calculations to let different enterprise-class computers calculate different sections.
As of now, the semiconductor technology in this world has actually begun to surpass the level of the original world before Bamboo Star traveled through.
The original world before he traveled has just developed to the stage of mass production of 3 nanometer processors. This world is marching towards 1 nanometer, and there is no so-called Moore's Law reaching the limit in this world, because someone in this world has already proposed it.
Several updated theories support that the world's semiconductor industry can continue to develop smoothly for at least another twenty or thirty years.
Zhu Youxing is very happy that he can travel to this world.
Perhaps in my lifetime I will be able to truly see one of the most powerful computers, and then calculate a video game that is comparable to the real world.
Let’s talk about the surge in processor sales.
This is a very surprising thing for processor manufacturers.
This means they make more profits.
And people who buy now are willing to do so.
People's demand for high-end entertainment has always been endless.
At the same time, the business environment in this world is quite good. After experiencing several bubble crises, it is now in a period of prosperity. People have enough money in their pockets, and they are naturally more willing to pay for their own entertainment.
After the processor manufacturers were happy, they also wanted to study what was going on.
Why are there suddenly so many people buying high-end processors?
And not only high-end, but also mid- to low-end new processors are selling very well.
Because there are still a group of people who originally planned to use a computer for three to five years but suddenly started playing Assassin's Creed Revelations and decisively chose to update the configuration.
If you don’t want to switch to the top-of-the-line configuration in one go, you should at least switch to a configuration that can keep up with this era.
That way, you can at least greatly improve your experience.
This is indeed the reality. These players bought the latest computers and then discovered a whole new world after experiencing Assassin's Creed Revelations again.
This world feels so real to them, and every NPC character is very human.
They feel that even if they do nothing, just watching the behavior of these passerby NPCs in this game world will be extremely interesting.
And processor manufacturers quickly understood what was going on.
It turned out to be related to a video game.
At the same time, they were also surprised that a game could bring such a huge increase in sales.
Immediately afterwards, the Benedi AI Laboratory officially announced new AI computing technology.
And they also promoted Assassin's Creed Revelations as if they were bragging that the technology from their laboratory was used.
This immediately attracted the attention of many people, especially those large enterprises with budgets.
After the Benedi AI Laboratory just announced this matter, companies with strong ties to video games such as Surui Electronics, Mickford, and Brown Entertainment immediately contacted the laboratory and hoped to obtain some information about this technology.
relevant information and knowledge.
The Benedi AI Laboratory is essentially a university laboratory, and most of its patents also belong to the school.
However, because of the investment from Youxing Electronic Entertainment and the research and development direction proposed by Zhuyousing, the patent on the video game AI training model belongs to Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
Of course, it only refers to related patents that use AI computing technology to simulate the reactions of passers-by NPCs in the video game world.
By the time these people discovered that Youxing Electronic Entertainment had made such a big news quietly, it was already a bit late.
When Youxing Electronic Entertainment started to promote some AI-related technologies before, they didn't pay much attention to it.
In other words, they cared about it, and they indeed asked their subordinates to follow up on the AI field, but at that time they had no idea what the connection between the AI field and video games was. They just thought it might be another casual investment by Zhuyouxing.
But I really didn’t expect that this guy Zhu Yuxing would really connect AI with video games in such an inadvertent way.
Suri Electronics and Mickford were the first to react.
They themselves have a very strong technical background and immediately announced the formation of their own experimental team to start researching similar things.
Surui Electronics has immediately shown the important points of Assassin's Creed Revelations to Hayakawa Ueto, and Hayakawa Ueto formed a new team almost without thinking to follow up on this new technology.
Mickford is also not far behind.
As for Brown Entertainment, they have always only focused on video game development, and they are somewhat behind in this regard. However, money can solve many problems in this world, and as long as Brown Entertainment is willing to spend money, they can still come up with something.
As for Zhuyouxing, sales began to increase in reverse within a month after the release of Assassin's Creed Revelations.
Players who think they have a high-end computer will want to buy an Assassin's Creed and give it a try.
Because there are more and more voices out there describing it this way: If you have a computer with high enough configuration and are also a gamer, not playing Assassin's Creed Revelations is simply the biggest loss in your life.
At the same time, at the company headquarters of Youxing Electronic Entertainment, a group of unfamiliar faces also came.
Some of them have European and American faces, and some have Asian faces.
They also wore similar outfits, that is, straight suits and handbags in their hands.
"Hello everyone, how can I help you?"
The people at the front desk were a little stunned when they saw these people coming in.
Usually, the employees inside Youxing Electronic Entertainment are more casually dressed, and the people who come to negotiate are also the same kind of casual people, so they haven't seen so many formally dressed guys in a long time.
Are they official government personnel?
"Hi, I'm from a chip company, and I want to talk to your president."
