"Captain Tang, in front of you is our supercomputer, Sunway TaihuLight."
A man about fifty years old, wearing glasses and a white coat, smiled and pointed to the door of the computer room in front of him.
A breastplate hung on his chest.
It says - Tan Hechang, Director of Huadu Supercomputer Center.
Tan Hechang looked at Tang Long with a smile.
As the person in charge here, I have no airs at all.
Tang Long looked unattractive, but this time... he came on behalf of Zhou Xing.
The energy contained in the name Zhou Xing is self-evident.
Naturally, he did not dare to look down upon him in the slightest.
Tan Hechang came to the door of the computer room, first entered his password, then scanned his palm prints, and finally performed facial recognition.
After all three procedures are completed.
There was a click.
The door to the computer room slowly opened.
The interior space is bright.
The whole thing is mainly black.
At the door, there is a pillar with the golden words Shenwei Taihu Light printed on it.
The latter is the main body of the Sunway TaihuLight supercomputer.
Rows and rows of square, box-like machines, also black, lying there quietly.
Tang Long's eyes were straightened when he saw it.
"The Sunway TaihuLight supercomputer is equipped with 40,960 Sunway 26010 many-core processors independently developed by China. The many-core processor uses a 64-bit independent Sunway instruction system, with a peak performance of 1.25 billion operations per second and a sustained performance of
9.3 billion times per second, core operating frequency 1.5ghz.”
Tan Hechang introduced, with pride in his tone, "As a supercomputer developed by the National Parallel Computer Engineering Technology Research Center, on November 14, 2016, the new top 500 global supercomputers list, China's "Sunway·Taihu
"Light" easily won the championship again with its powerful computing speed advantage, far ahead."
"It can be said... Sunway TaihuLight is currently the world's top supercomputer, and it is the undisputed overlord."
Tan Hechang smiled and said: "I believe that Sunway Taihu Light can perfectly meet Mr. Zhou's computing requirements."
Zhou Xing is China’s top scientific research talent.
Scientific research...is inseparable from computing power.
He knew how to use a supercomputer and chose to rent it. Tan Hechang was not surprised at all.
Tang Long stood aside and remained silent.
The dark face looks stiff and plain.
In fact, he was already confused.
Listening to Tan Hechang's professional vocabulary popping up one after another, it was like listening to a book from heaven and he couldn't understand it at all.
I only heard the words 'first', 'far ahead' and 'top'.
All in all...this machine is awesome.
Tang Long was not surprised either.
Where will the machine Zhou Xing chose become ordinary?
"I just followed the boss's instructions and came to discuss the rental of machines. I don't know much about the others. I ask for your forgiveness, Director Tan."
Tang Long's stiff face revealed a hint of embarrassment, and he spoke truthfully to Tan Hechang.
Rather than pretending to understand, it will be revealed later.
Might as well speak out.
As a bodyguard...isn't it embarrassing not to know these high technologies?
No!
There's no shame in it at all.
"understand."
Tan Hechang smiled and said, "There are specialties in the art industry."
In one sentence, Tang Long's embarrassment was relieved in an understatement.
"I wonder, Mr. Zhou, how many cores are you planning to rent this time?"
Tan Hechang asked.
"Well......."
After Tang Long paused for a moment, he said: "The boss told me... to see how many cores you have left, rent them together."
He knew what Zhou Xing told him by heart, so he would not forget it.
"Rent together?"
Tan Hechang looked a little shocked and stared at Tang Long, "Captain Tang, are you sure that there are no errors in the communication between you and Mr. Zhou?"
"That's right."
Tang Long said categorically: "This is exactly what the boss said."
"I think...Captain Tang, it would be better for you to call Mr. Zhou and confirm again. Maybe there was a misunderstanding in the communication."
Tan Hechang was worried that Tang Long didn't understand, so he took the initiative to explain: "Our supercomputer has a total of 40,000 CPUs, each with a power consumption of 100 watts. If it is run at full capacity, it will be 4 million watts per hour.
4,000 kilowatt hours of electricity will be consumed, and after 24 hours, 96,000 kilowatt hours of electricity will be consumed."
"Mr. Zhou rented the core, and we naturally cooperated actively. We will not charge additional fees, only the electricity bill."
"Of course he doesn't care about the electricity bills, but...the computing power generated by 40,000 CPUs is really amazing. I really can't think of anything that Mr. Zhou needs such a large amount of computing power. It's completely
The performance is excessive and I personally think it is unnecessary.”
Tang Long's pupils dilated slightly.
That’s more than 90,000 and nearly 100,000 kilowatt hours of electricity a day.
This number is truly astonishing.
Co-author...is a complete electricity-eating monster.
Tan Hechang's words made Tang Long have some self-doubt. He became shaken and said to Tan Hechang: "Wait a minute, I will confirm with the boss."
Tan Hechang smiled and nodded.
Tang Long must have heard wrongly.
At least so far, he has never seen any business that can fully utilize the performance of Sunway TaihuLight.
After a while.
Tang Long came back and said to Tan Hechang: "I confirmed with the boss, yes... he said that he will rent it all."
Tan Hechang: "......"
Tang Long also had a dark face.
It’s all the fault of Tan Hechang in front of me.
He remembered it clearly and insisted on calling him to confirm.
Call passed.
He was scolded by Zhou Xing.
I got scolded for no reason.
The smile on Tan Hechang's face was a little stiff. He looked at Tang Long, "Now that Mr. Zhou has said it all and confirmed it, it just so happens... Our Sunway Taihu Light currently has no one renting it.
, can all be leased to Mr. Zhou."
Although I was confused and confused, I couldn't understand it at all.
But Zhou Xing has already spoken, and if others don't use it, that's also his business.
At this time, it would be inappropriate to talk too much.
soon.
The lease contract is drawn up.
"Please confirm here. If there are no problems, you can sign it and it will take effect from today."
Tan Hechang handed the contract to Tang Long.
Tang Long read the contract carefully, and then said to Tan Hechang: "I will report to the boss later, and the money will be transferred to the account at that time."
"It's okay, there's no rush."
Tan Hechang waved his hand and said, "You can pay at any time. I wonder when Mr. Zhou needs to use it?"
"Is now okay?"
Tang Long asked immediately.
"Yes, yes..."
Tan Hechang hesitated and said: "It's just..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Tang Long take out a USB flash drive and handed it to him, "Dean Tan, please start it now and help me plug in the USB flash drive."
