This time, seven micro and small supercomputers were launched in one go, to four aircraft manufacturers and three shipyards.
Throughout the night, Factory 9's transport planes were not idle for a second. They were either flying or preparing to fly, delivering small and micro supercomputers to places.
Hundreds and thousands of CPUs plus GPUs can perform more than 100 million calculations, for Xia Guo at this time.
This kind of small supercomputer is also a treasure.
When Factory 9 just started, the first supercomputer could barely reach 70 million operations, and it had not exceeded 100 million operations. At that time, the best supercomputer in Xia State had just exceeded 100 million operations per second.
In just a few years, 500 million supercomputers have been built, which can be installed in a small house.
Fast enough?
Bai Hao came up early in the morning and before he had breakfast, Zhuang Feng came over in person and brought Bai Hao an egg pancake, egg burger, and rice porridge.
"Director Xiaobai, your Factory No. 9 sent a really good thing last night, a billion-times-per-second supercomputer. Thank you very much. With this treasure, our research progress will definitely be accelerated several times."
Bai Hao smiled: "Don't dare to say anything, because the one built for Hong Chengfei is 500 million times per second, and we only have two units for one billion times per second, and the other one was given to Jinzhou Shipyard. The rest are
500 million times versus one with 350 million times.”
"I know, I know, I must keep it a secret."
Zhuang Feng is very happy. For those doing research, having a supercomputer is really useful.
Bai Haoxin said that the computer he used to play games before his rebirth had eight cores and a main frequency of 2.5G and a core frequency of 4.8. It is estimated that the computing power of that thing should be more powerful than the current supercomputer. It seems that it can exceed one second per second.
Tera operations speed.
I didn’t know that my own computer research institute could suddenly reach the nanometer level.
Once you enter the world of nanometers, the speed of the CPU increases exponentially.
We still need to work harder, mainly spending more money.
For research on computing hardware, Bai Hao feels that he is burning money as fast as the Materials Research Institute. Sometimes he doesn't realize where the money has been spent, and half a truck of money is gone.
Just as Bai Hao picked up an egg burger, Gu Fen also came, also bringing breakfast. His portion also included a leek box and a chicken noodle.
By the way, is it too hard to eat chicken noodles so early in the morning?
The three of them sat down and Zhanxi retreated outside to guard.
Gu Fen looked around and then said: "Director Bai, it's not us two old guys who are holding us back. We have an idea. We are currently studying this model. Later, we want to design and study a heavy-duty machine. But
It can eject or take off in a shorter time, which requires some effort. After all, they haven’t really made a complete prototype of the Mao Xiong prototype.”
Bai Hao didn't speak, just listened and ate breakfast.
Gu Fen continued: "I heard that Shi Ji is going to have a test flight. Can you change it?"
Bai Hao shook his head directly: "It's not that it's completely impossible, I think it's meaningless. It's designed as a land base. If nothing else, the landing gear can't hold it and can be broken directly. Of course, Mr. Gu, your
I suggest that we can discuss it and discuss it."
Gu Fen also understood: "Yes, if we succeed in researching this, it will be completely meaningless to change Shi Ji. I just said that there is one more choice. We are under a lot of pressure. It takes two years from design to finalization to investment.
It can be used or even put on a ship. This cannot be achieved by shouting slogans."
Bai Hao didn't answer and continued to eat breakfast.
Gu Fen added: "If I trade my old life for success, I won't hesitate at all."
Bai Hao raised his head: "Three years, three years at the most."
Gu Fen nodded vigorously: "Okay, three years. If you can't do it in three years, you can take my old life. To be honest, my inner progress should be that I can fly for the first time in about thirty months.
"
"In three years, we must succeed. This is very important." Bai Hao emphasized again: "This is the limit time, because..." Bai Hao hesitated for a few seconds and then said: "Because in three years, we will be with the beautiful country.
We will no longer be friends.”
As soon as these words came out, Gu Fen's face changed slightly.
After Zhuang Feng saw Practice-16, he always thought that the reason for pressing so hard was to provide support for Practice-16. But now hearing what Bai Hao said, Gu Fen regretted coming to Bai Hao to ask for an extension on design and research.
It's time.
If he had known this was the answer, he would never have spoken just now.
I really have to risk my life and work hard to complete it within two years.
Zhuang Feng changed the topic at this time: "By the way, what is the special significance of the number 16?"
Bai Hao happened to want to change the topic, so he answered after hearing this question: "Seven towns and eight far distances, that's what I thought at the time. Of course, there is another coincidence. Mr. Liu was also born at 16. But this is really just a coincidence.
The truth is that there are seven towns and eight distances."
"I see!"
The name will not be a random matter.
Seven towns and eight distances.
Gu Fen and Zhuang Feng also roughly understood this meaning.
Bai Hao also finished his breakfast: "Let's go to the hangar. I'd like to see if I can take some time to go to Binghuo Island quietly, but our director, Zi Zhen, doesn't recommend that I go. So,
After leaving your place, I will go to Bingcheng Feizhao again, and then go to Jinzhou."
"We will stay at the Jinzhou Shipyard for a few days and then take a boat to Nanbang. After finishing some matters in Nanbang, we must quickly go to Kangaroo Country. This year's first stop of F1 will be held in Nanbang Country. This is a must.
go."
"Let's go to the hangar." Zhuang Feng stood up.
Ten minutes later, Hangar No. 9 was built by Shen Chengfei.
The supercomputer has been shipped and is being installed by people from the Ninth Factory. It is not small in size. It will take almost a month to complete the entire computer room. It requires a computer room of no less than 100 square meters. Even if it is small, it is impossible to reach
In later generations, the size of a filing cabinet was also a huge pile.
Standing in front of the disassembled parts, Bai Hao said: "As far as I know, at least nine prototypes of this kind have been built, and it may be eleven. This is only the third one. They are also constantly trying.
, it is said that a few units have also been dropped, but it is a pity that we cannot get the S Yinhuo 27. Otherwise, the two together will make the research progress at least twice as fast."
Gu Fen said: "Basically, this is enough. We have read a lot of dismantled information. There are many kinds of Mao Xiong aircraft that have been dismantled at the Ninth Factory. Those information will be supplemented here. We hope that
It’s not about copying others, but about creating something of your own.”
"understand."
Bai Hao also understood why Gu Fen wanted time. He just didn't want to simply copy.
Copied things may not be easy to use.
Only those that are truly suitable for your own use will be more valuable and can show greater power in use.
Bai Hao said: "Spending a little more money is not a problem. After success, you can improve and upgrade again."
