Global Monopoly of Technology

Qin Weimu did not leave immediately. Although the discussion just now was very enjoyable, it was not enough.

At this moment, while it was going on, Xiaona's voice responded, "Master, although I should keep silent, two strange visitors have requested to visit."

"Let them wait." Qin Weimu said lightly.

...

At the entrance of the Science and Technology Complex, two middle-aged men in formal suits stood at the door, checking the time progress of their watches from time to time.

Unconsciously, another half an hour passed, and there was no other way, so the two had to go back to the car to rest.

When it was almost done, he got out of the car and asked for an interview, only to receive a response from Xiaona's electronically synthesized voice.

Not yet available!

One of them couldn't help but complained, "I have to say that this score is really big enough, and I have been waiting for more than an hour."

Another companion said, "We didn't make an appointment in advance. Even if we made an appointment, we still have the qualifications to set this score. It's not bad to come uninvited and not be kicked away, calm down."

Time passed minute by minute, and ten minutes passed without knowing it. At this time, the two of them finally saw movement inside.

The two saw the housekeeper of the complex building and Qin Weimu coming out through the outer gate. She got into a luxury business car and drove away, and saw that the housekeeper did not go back to the building, but walked towards them. Come on, the two of them couldn't help but cheer up.

It can be considered that we have been waiting for almost two hours. It is a cold day.

"You two, please come with me."

Under the leadership of the housekeeper, the two strangers successfully passed the intelligent security check channel and entered the science and technology complex building. Seeing the technology-rich side of the building, they knew they had found the right person.

Of course, the premise is that Luo Sheng is willing to pay attention to them.

The two came to the large living room of the living area. Luo Sheng was here at the moment. When he saw two strangers, he casually looked at them for a while and asked them to sit on the curved sofa beside him.

"The two... they don't look like entrepreneurs who came to me for financing." Luo Sheng sat comfortably on the single-seat sofa opposite them, sitting like a boss.

An Qingxue sister brought the coffee table,

After half a cup of tea was presented one by one, they left silently.

"Mr. Luo, I'm very sorry for taking the liberty to visit. Let me introduce myself. My lord, Cheng Jianhua, is the executive director of the 'Snowman Project'."

Snowman Project?

Luo Sheng was stunned when he heard the term.

Of course, this is his inner activity, and there is nothing unusual on the surface. For a bigwig like him who has seen countless big scenes, expression management is the basic quality.

Snowman Project.

Of course Luo Sheng knew, but what surprised him was that the memory of the last life seemed to be initiated in 2013, and now these two strange visitors reported the plan as soon as they came up, indicating that it was actually two days ahead of schedule. Years or so began planning, or even earlier.

Cheng Jianhua didn't know this. He thought that Luo Sheng didn't understand the meaning of these four words, so he explained that "the so-called 'Snowman Project' was initiated by my country's Next Generation Internet Engineering Center and was designed to replace the current version of ipv4. A generation of Internet core protocols, it proposes a complete set of root server solutions and technical systems based on ipv6, oriented to emerging applications, and autonomously controllable."

Cheng Jianhua added, "Once the technology is mature, we will join forces with the international Internet root operator wide organization to recruit 25 root server operation volunteer units from all over the world to jointly sign and rotate the secret key for ipv6 root server operation and domain name system security extension. The deployment of IPv6 will reshape national competitiveness in the future.”

Luo Sheng first expressed his surprise when he heard about this plan for the first time, then thought for a moment and said, "There is still a lot of work to be done to truly realize the multilateral co-governance of the global Internet. Operation, clearing the technical barriers, not only can win more international supporters, but also promote the progress of corresponding standardization within the ietf (internet engineering task force)."

Cheng Jianhua and his colleagues who were accompanying him nodded involuntarily, sighing that he is indeed the number one person in the global technology industry. A simple sentence can deeply understand the essence of the pros and cons.

It is not unreasonable for the country to promote the "Snowman DNS Project". So far, China, as a global Internet power, does not have its own ipv4 root server. These servers are all in the hands of Americans. An American can have 6 IP addresses. On average, 26 people in China share the same IP address, which makes China feel angry and helpless as a country that is already the world's largest Internet user.

Luo Sheng said in a deep voice, "Whether it is to break the Western monopoly or IPv4 itself, this matter should indeed be planned in advance and take precautions."

The total length of so-called ipv4 addresses is 32 bits, which means that at most 42.9 billion addresses are available.

With the explosive growth of the number of Internet users, as of the end of last year, the number of Internet users in the world has exceeded 2 billion, and more and more devices are connected to the Internet. It is a foreseeable future for ipv4 to exhaust all the addresses.

The length of ipv6 reaches 128 bits, adding a total of 340 trillion ip addresses. Even if everyone on the earth has dozens of networked devices, it is more than enough to allocate.

More importantly, the country must break the monopoly of the West and have its own main root server.

Although the virtual network is virtual, its establishment is supported by its actual material foundation, that is, one server after another, and the data exchange has to stop when the server hangs up.

For example, if Bluestar's server is down, no matter whether it is WeChat friends, Bluespace, Bluestar video, Weibo, etc., no messages can be sent, because online communication ultimately depends on offline machines.

At present, there are only 13 root servers in the world, 1 main root server is in the United States, and the rest are secondary root servers, 9 of which are also in the United States, and 1 in the United Kingdom, Sweden and Japan.

Huaguo is already the country with the largest number of Internet users in a single region in the world, and it doesn't even have one!

It is not difficult to understand such a situation. As the "lifeblood" of the Internet, this "lifeblood" is being pinched by others. This feeling is very uncomfortable and insecure.

Cheng Jianhua took a sip of tea and said in a hurry, "With the continuous development of the Internet, the threat of cyber war is increasing, and the 'Stuxnet' virus that occurred last year was the catalyst for the birth of the 'Snowman Project'. important event-driven...”

He introduced the cause and the process to Luo Sheng in detail, without any concealment. Although he has not stated the purpose of this, he also knows that Luo Sheng, a person with a super IQ, must know that he is visiting in the hope that he can join the "Snowman Project". .

The reason for the incident begins in 2010, when the U.S. military carried out a "Stuxnet" virus attack on Iran, which caused the collapse of the Iranian nuclear power plant and directly led to the nuclear leakage. Since the incident, cyber warfare has become a key research project for national defense security. .

God knows how many Internet viruses similar to or even more terrifying than "Stuxnet" still exist in the United States, and the global Internet controlled by the United States is an eternal and deadly threat to other countries.

If someday Americans block the domain name and IP resolution of the Chinese Internet, then the domestic domain name and IP will be inaccessible, the entire Internet will be paralyzed, and the mirror root server is not an optimal replacement.

If a country wants to develop, it must be in line with the world, and it must completely get rid of the control of Americans on the Internet root server.

Otherwise, the old beauty will give you a "shut off the grid", who can stand it?

Cheng Jianhua watched Luo Sheng and said in an orderly manner, "Once the global deployment of 25 ipv6 root servers has been completed, it will completely get rid of the Internet hegemony of the old and the United States. According to the plan, ipv6 will be fully applied in China in five to eight years, with one main root and three The auxiliary root server is located in China, so that people will not be stuck in address allocation, which is a great victory to ensure the dominance of my country's network."

"From commercial websites to government websites, ipv6 will be fully supported, covering 20 Internet users in the world, and 50 Internet users in the world in ten years. After 15 years, the network scale, user scale and traffic scale of ipv6 will surpass that of ipv4. No. 1 in the world, fully complete the upgrade to the next-generation Internet, and completely end the time of American Internet hegemony within 30 years of history."

Luo Sheng suddenly realized that the opportunity that led to the birth of the "Snowman Project" was the cyber attack on the Iranian nuclear facility last year by the United States.

At the end, Luo Sheng also bluntly asked, "Does Director Cheng want me to join the research and development of the 'Snowman Project'?"

Cheng Jianhua nodded, "Yes, you are not only the world's top developer, but your corporate scientific research team also has the top engineering team in the country and even in the world. We believe that with your support, the 'Snowman Project' will be a success. The time bar is at least three or even five years ahead.”

Speaking of which, Cheng Jianhua glanced at his colleagues and said to Luo Sheng with a laugh haha, "No one in the world knows the name of 'Azur Lab', and the 'Bell Lab' in the East is even more popular among netizens. It's a research and development center for black technology."
