I Am the President of the University

In 2020, an organization once released a list of the top 500 computers in the world. Among them, the Japanese supercomputer "Fuyue" has become the new generation supercomputing champion with a speed of 4.155 billion operations per second.

And China's "Shenwei" and "Tianhe-2" ranked fourth and seventh respectively.

It is worth mentioning that although the Chinese supercomputer did not win the individual championship, it outnumbered all its opponents.

The national supercomputer market is mainly due to the confrontation between China, Japan and the United States. Although Japan's Fuyue ranks first, there are only 30 supercomputers in the top 500 in Japan, far behind China and the United States.

The number of supercomputers in the United States is 114, and its fastest equipment "Vertex" is second only to Japan's "Fuyue", and it is the second computer in computing.

The first place is China, with a total of 226 supercomputers, accounting for more than 45%, nearly twice that of the United States.

The reason why it can catch up with the United States in the field of supercomputing is that supercomputing is not like a mobile phone computer. Although the requirements for chips are equally high, there are fewer area restrictions.

In terms of super calculation, the gap between China and the United States is not particularly large.

As for the Tianhe-2 that I just mentioned to Lu Zhou, it is a supercomputer developed by the National Defense University of Science and Technology. In 2013, it was the fastest supercomputer in the world.

Tianhe No. 2, which has remained the champion until June 20, 2016, was replaced by "Sunway Taihu Light", which was manufactured by my country's own chips.

This Sunway Taihu Light is difficult to create. It is the first top-level supercomputer built in China under the embargo. The word Sunway comes from the Shenwei SW26010 processor it uses. Developed by the Sixth Research Institute (also known as Jiangnan Institute of Computing).

SW26010 is the fourth-generation CPU of Shenwei series. It adopts SMIC's 28nm process, which is one or two generations behind Intel's 14nm.

Therefore, the main frequency of SW26010 is not high, only 1.45GHz, while the main frequency of Intel Xeon series chips in the same period is usually around 2.6GHz.

Then how did Taihu Light defeat the United States and Japan?

When the chip manufacturing process is backward, the area changes performance to make up for the lack of technology.

TaihuLight shared 40,960 SW26010s, with 10,649,600 processor cores, while the US Sierra supercomputer with a similar peak used only 1,572,480 processor cores, less than one-sixth of TaihuLight.

Not only that, when the supercomputing field is blocked by technology, it is not easy to achieve overtaking on a curve.

Generally speaking, these supercomputers in China can be applied for use by individuals or enterprises, as long as you have money, you can register an account and submit an application.

With his energy, say hello to the above, and jump in line for a Taihu Light super calculation is completely no problem.

However, after Chen Hao finished the phone call, a voice came from beside him.

"President Chen, is there anything I can help you with?" Professor Zhao Yong said enthusiastically.

When meeting with President Chen, he just wanted to join the hyperloop research group and see the birth of the hyperloop with his own eyes.

Unexpectedly, he can also be appointed as the deputy chief engineer of the hyperloop project.

It is said that this was only passed by President Chen despite all the opposition.

Being able to be trusted again, Professor Zhao Yong is completely grateful to Chen Hao.

"Overcalculation, small problem," Chen Hao smiled nonchalantly, and then his eyes extended to the unique building in front of him.

"Professor Zhao, have Director Xu and President Huang arrived?"

"Not long after I arrived, Mr. Qi was also there." Zhao Yong's eyes dodged when he mentioned Qi Zhenguo.

For Qi Zhenguo, Zhao Yong felt very guilty. Of course, he knew that Qi Lao had a lot of high hopes on him.

But he failed Mr. Qi.

Now that he has come to his senses, he is even more afraid to see Elder Qi.

Chen Hao smiled lightly: "Then let's go in too, don't let the leaders wait."

The impact of the Hyperloop project is too great, involving several ministries and commissions in the capital, but the China Railway General Administration and the Ministry of Transport are the ones who are mainly responsible.

In domestic railway transportation, China Railway is responsible for operation, and the Ministry of Transport is responsible for management (local railway bureaus), and the vacuum super high-speed rail project cannot be avoided.

Walking into the research center, there is a group of people visiting the laboratory. Among them are several senior officials from ministries and commissions, and several old experts in the field of railway transportation. The escorts are mainly two officials from Ludao (Geng Kangping, Zhou Hanqing) and the project manager. Consultant Qi Lao.

As soon as Chen Hao appeared, he immediately attracted the attention of the audience.

As for Professor Zhao Yong, his footsteps were a bit vain, and he couldn't help but lag behind Chen Hao.

"Hello, Director Xu."

"Hello Mr. Huang."

"Hello Director Xue."

"Hello, Professor Li."

"village……"

With a smile on his face, he shook hands with the leaders and professors one by one.

Then, Chen Hao replaced Qi Lao to answer the questions for the visiting leading professors.

Those who can appear here are either experts who have dedicated their lives to national scientific research or senior officials of ministries and commissions. There is nothing to worry about leaking.

The questions asked were also various, and Chen Hao answered them with ease, especially after several experts listened to them and fell into contemplation.

There is so much information that it takes time to digest.

Of course, the questions asked by the leaders are not as professional as the experts, among which the most concerned are the construction cost and time.

"Principal Chen, when will the earliest prototype of the hyperloop be developed?" Director Xu asked with concern.

Chen Hao thought for a while and replied, "If there is no problem with the team's running-in, it should be developed around the end of this year and early next year at the earliest. By then, the construction of the four-kilometer test pipeline will be almost completed, and the trial operation can be started."

Hearing this answer, Director Xu smiled wryly.

"It's best to hurry up, but you must not affect the quality."

Director Xu glanced at Chen Hao and sighed: "After all, the super high-speed rail project exceeds one trillion yuan, and there are many people paying attention to this in the world. You must be cautious and cautious."

"Director Xu, don't worry, I will definitely submit a satisfactory answer to the country." Chen Hao replied calmly without being nervous at all.

"If you encounter any trouble, feel free to contact me. There is a country to endorse you, and you can do it boldly." Director Xu's voice fell, and the secretary behind him felt that he gave the leader's personal phone number to Chen Hao.

The other leaders also left their personal mobile phone numbers.

This matter has already been registered in the Guo Mouyuan, but it is not a project that the Ministry of Transport or China Railway can take overall responsibility for.

Anyone who dares to make small moves is completely self-defeating.

In terms of national strategy, there is no mercy at all.

When the leading scholars were sent away, Chen Hao looked at Qi Zhenguo, who was beside him, and sighed helplessly.

"Elder Qi, you are not too young, so there is no need to move to the research center."

The previous plan was to complete the assembly and research work of the prototype in Guanghua University, and the construction of the four-kilometer test line of the hyperloop was carried out in the deep mountains of Tongan District.

But considering the secrecy work, the work on the final prototype was also moved to the deep mountains, and troops were stationed around the research center.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Qi was going to move to the research center.

Qi Lao was very stubborn and directly rejected Chen Hao.

"Hyper-high-speed rail is the most important weapon of the country. Although I am an old bone, I don't have the energy of your young people, but I still use it."

"Principal Chen, you don't have to persuade me anymore, I've made up my mind. If I can see the emergence of the hyperloop in my lifetime, I will die without regrets..."

The love and dedication of old scientists to the country is incomprehensible to contemporary young people. Chen Hao was silent for a moment~www.NovelMTL.com~ What can I do? Of course, I agreed.

"Okay, but Mr. Qi, you have to promise me that you can't be overworked. I will let the system of the research center pay special attention to you. After a certain amount of time every day, I will stop your research work."

"It's… okay."

Old Qi was also helpless.

The previous plans were all in vain. It is really that this security system of Guanghua is too advanced, and I was amazed on the first day when I arrived.

After staying in the research center for a while and answering some questions for the researchers, Chen Hao also left here.

Professor Zhao Yong's ability and energy are good, and with Lao Qi, the honor of the Republic watching, he has nothing to worry about.

On the way back, however, a system alert sounded.

Let Chen Hao almost hit the car in front.

After seeing the contents of the system page in front of him, Chen Hao was overjoyed.

"Finally a breakthrough!"
