At four-thirty in the morning, Professor Huo Laien was sitting in front of the computer in the study room with his clothes on.
The old man has been sleepless for two hours.
As the chief scientist of the "Prometheus" project, he suffered from insomnia partly because he was under a lot of pressure, and partly because he suddenly realized that he was old.
When he woke up in the middle of the night, he suddenly found an old woman lying on the bed. When he was frightened, he suddenly realized that this was his wife...
So he couldn't sleep at all.
…
The computer screen stops on the calculation interface of matlab.
As the chief scientist of Prometheus, he is prohibited from using Aita - in the "confrontation" half a year ago, Jizhi Technology issued a statement refusing services in North America, but Aita from scientific research institutions can use
, but it cannot be used for data analysis and model building, and can only be used as a translation, communication and flux calculation tool.
This can be regarded as a goodwill move by JiZhi Technology to the scientific community here.
Of course, this goodwill has been deliberately distorted by some security departments here into collecting data and prohibiting the use of sensitive institutions and topics.
Of course, Professor Huo Laien didn't care.
He didn't use Aita because he wasn't used to it, not because he was afraid of anything.
He knew very well what kind of authority and ability Ye Ming had in the field based on Ye's equations - the reason why he dared to show his ideas to Ye Ming was that he completely believed that to Ye Ming, this was nothing at all.
Even from past emails, he could guess that the Zhuri research team may have completed the design of helium-3 fusion!
So what else is there to care about?
Time passed by second by second, and soon a notification for a new email popped up.
"Professor, aren't you still up at one o'clock?"
Professor Huo Laien looked at the time in the lower right corner: "It's four o'clock here."
"Oh, I thought you were still in California, so are you in Princeton now?"
"Yes, I'm in Princeton. Ye, what's your idea?"
After clicking to send the email, Professor Huo Laien leaned on his chair, folded his arms, and waited quietly.
About five minutes later, a new email popped up again.
"Professor, I'm sorry, I can't solve this problem for you because our thinking directions are not consistent."
"But after receiving your email, I briefly simulated it using ETA. There should be no problem with your direction, but as far as helium-3 fusion itself is concerned, higher continuous power is needed to maintain the self-sustainment of the fusion. Of course,
As long as the cost of helium 3 can be solved, there is no problem with this power loss."
"Moreover, we also completed the idea based on quantum supercomputing and the assistance of Aita. If you are willing, I can coordinate and open Aita's data analysis and modeling authority to you."
"At present, Aita already has 750,000 light quanta and more than 50,000 sets of quantum computing units, which can barely meet the world's computing needs."
…
Looking at the email, Professor Huo Laien's cheeks trembled.
There are not many words in the email and the content is very clear.
Ye Ming does have an idea, and he even feels that the progress of the Kuafu project team must be far from this!
Ye Ming is obviously based on some confidentiality regulations and can only share this little information with himself - according to the "personality" there, it may not be long before it is announced that the helium 3 fusion reactor has successfully ignited...
In comparison, here...
As for Etta...
Professor Huo Laien sighed.
With Aita, it's impossible even to think about it.
In silence, Professor Huo Laien was thinking about whether to say "thank you" or "congratulations" when suddenly the cell phone placed aside rang rapidly.
He hung up the phone without thinking, but unexpectedly, the same number called again.
"who?"
"Professor, please stop contacting the other party via email immediately!"
Listening to the stern warning coming from the phone, I looked at the content of the email.
Professor Huo Laien felt a huge sense of absurdity. He finally couldn't help it and roared into the phone: "Fuck Fuck! Get out!"
Then he hung up the phone and replied "Congratulations."
"You're welcome, and good luck to you, Professor."
After closing the email, Professor Huo Laien opened the design page again and began to think about Ye Ming's possible design, or... the possible direction.
Time passed slowly, and in just a blink of an eye, the sky gradually became brighter.
The sound of my wife getting up was also heard in the bedroom.
At this moment, the doorbell rang suddenly.
Two men in civilian clothes showed him their IDs with serious faces.
…
Ye Ming naturally didn't know that his communication with Professor Huo Laien would bring big trouble to the other party. He even regretted that he couldn't help such an old man who pursues the truth more...
Well, the responsibility doesn't lie with him.
Who told them to isolate themselves from advanced productive forces?
Moreover, he also learned about the direction of quantum computers in the United States from his previous exchanges with the old man.
Today's old Americans have begun to walk on two legs.
One leg is to reduce the size of the confinement well as much as possible in order to obtain more light quantum distribution in the smallest area, thereby triggering a qualitative change.
Several wafer factories are taking this road. It is said that in the latest design, the "process" process of a constraint trap - yes, they still call it a "process" - has reached the level of 0.1 mm!
I have to say that advancing the manufacturing process is indeed a traditional craft...
Another way is to design as many exclusive algorithms as possible, and then use the task management system to complete the allocation of classic tasks.
Regarding these two paths... Ye Ming can only say that they are happy as long as they are happy.
——People in the simulated world also take these two paths, but after fifty years they are still less than one percent of the "Tatu" combination.
Of course, there are advantages to their approach, that is, quantum computers with proprietary algorithms can be miniaturized, which is quite useful in some situations.
But... wanting to change the world is wishful thinking.
"You said, America would come here and admit her mistake, and then invite Aita back in a decent manner... and everything would be solved, how nice would it be?"
Ye Ming sighed to He Mo who had just entered the door.
He Mo was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
Aita uses centralized computing and storage logic. If you dare to go back there, the country will probably be happy.
Well... to put it more to the point, they really want to fully accept Aita, which means that the world is not far away from being harmonious.
"By the way, why are you facing each other again?"
Ye Ming shook his head and began to pack the light field display glasses: "Nothing... I just had a conversation with the chief scientist of Prometheus opposite, and I guess it hit him a bit..."
He Mo: "You didn't... say anything, did you?"
Ye Ming rolled his eyes at her: "Please, I decide what content should be kept secret!"
