Chapter 447 Supercomputing
Therefore, on April 2015, 4, the U.S. Department of Commerce issued an announcement deciding to ban the sale of "Xeon" chips to China's four national supercomputer centers.
This move completely cut off Huaxia's plan to continue to use the "Xeon" chip to carry out subsequent system upgrades on Tianhe-[-].
Therefore, the current Tianhe-[-] is really embarrassing and dangerous.
Although it is still a glorious six consecutive championships, the road ahead has been ruthlessly cut off!
It feels like running all the way, far ahead, but there is a cliff in front of you, and there is no way to go!
There's no way, that's how people are controlled by others.Once blocked and restricted, I can only cry on the side.
Just like now, the United States has cut off the supply of "Xeon" chips to China. How can China's Tianhe-[-] make further progress?
It can even be said that the previous investment is almost in vain!
But now, if Wang Fanruo can really double the performance of Tianhe-2, then Tianhe-500 may at least be able to win the supercomputing TOP[-] champion for three or four consecutive times!
At this moment, Elder Sun couldn't calm down, grabbed Elder Li's phone, and said:
"Wang Fan, our Tianhe-[-] uses Intel's "Xeon" chips from the United States, but now the United States has imposed an embargo on us. Therefore, it is impossible to rely on the increase in the number of "Xeon" chips , to perform a supercomputing upgrade, I think you need to understand this.”
For the sudden sound, Wang Fan was not surprised at all, but still replied calmly: "2%! 2 times the performance! [-] times the efficacy!"
Old Sun: "..."
In desperation, Elder Sun could only look at the old man. Wang Fan was so confident that it would be useless for him to say more.
The old man nodded, took the phone directly and said, "Wang Fan, I agree. I will give you the old military factory. Do you have any other requirements?"
The old man knew that if Wang Fan could increase the performance of Tianhe-[-] again, an old military factory would not be able to match it anyway.
Therefore, he asked Wang Fan directly, even if he was bleeding profusely, he should be satisfied.
After all, supercomputing is too important compared to others.
This is not only the best embodiment of a country's technology and comprehensive national strength, but also related to national defense, aerospace, big data, cloud computing, and even future artificial intelligence, etc., all kinds of cutting-edge levels!
It can be said that supercomputing is a network nuclear weapon in the war era and a scientific research nuclear weapon in the peace era!
Absolute national strategic level!
For the old man's words, Wang Fan was not surprised at all, just a little tangled.
You know, all he wanted this time was the military factory, and now, from the old man's tone, it seemed that he could get more things besides the military factory.
Although Wang Fan had already overestimated enough to overestimate his status in the hearts of the Huaxia government, he still did not expect it to be so high.
It seems that his point of view is far from that of the old man!
However, Wang Fan would be a fool if he let go of this rare opportunity.
After all, neither the previous help nor the current generosity of the government is selfless. On the contrary, they are all profit-seeking, taking a fancy to the capabilities of mortal technology.
In fact, none of the Chinese government's support for domestic enterprises or foreign governments is for public welfare, and none of them are not for profit.
For example, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, in such a poor period, China still provided a lot of assistance to the third world countries in Africa, even if it was not enough for itself.
Could it be that Huaxia is really selfless and self-sacrificing for others!Is it really Huaxia's swollen face to pretend to be fat?
Of course not, but the situation at that time determined China's international stance and required the support of many third world countries.
We must know that China, despite all kinds of obstructions from European and American countries, still successfully returned to the lawful seat of the permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, which could not have been separated from the support of the African brothers!
And for this seat, there are only five victorious countries in the world: the United States, Russia, Britain, France, and China!
It also has a veto power in the United Nations, and its strategic significance is not ordinary.
Therefore, the island countries and India have worked hard and actively strived to become the sixth permanent member of the Security Council, but they still can't do it!
After all, even if the United States, Britain, and France all agree, there is still a veto by China and Russia...
Similarly, the core materials for lithography machine upgrades were originally strictly blocked and embargoed by Europe and the United States, but the government gave Wang Fan free of charge.
The reason is not that Mortal Technology can successfully upgrade the lithography machine, upgrading the 20nm lithography machine to the excellent 14nm, which can directly break the power of the entire high-end lithography machine field and subvert the entire semiconductor field.
In turn, it can make Huaxia's semiconductor field from being absolutely behind, and even leaping into the lead!
This is of great significance to the whole of China, so the government is so generous.
After all, there is no short-sighted and ordinary person who can be a national leader!
On the contrary, they are all characters with great courage, great ambition and great wisdom!
It can even be said that the coldest thing in the world is only the state machine, but most of the time, the state machine will be covered with a layer of humanitarian sheepskin.
Therefore, Wang Fan would never let go of this opportunity to make the other party bleed.
It's just that Wang Fan didn't think it through for a while.
So Wang Fan said skillfully: "Good leader, it is my honor to be able to help Tianhe-[-] upgrade. The government has given a military factory as support. Mortal Technology shouldn't ask too much, but because Mortal Technology is going to be in the semiconductor industry as soon as possible. As the field grows bigger and stronger, many irresistible factors may be encountered. At that time, I hope that the government can give help and support, provide support for the development of Mortal Semiconductor, and create the necessary conditions for Mortal Technology to lead the overall rise of Huaxia Semiconductor. Environment, and atmosphere! After all, our opponents are TSMC, Intel, Samsung, and even the top giants like ASML, and the fields we want are lithography machines and semiconductors at the national strategic level!"
In saying this, Wang Fan not only successfully expressed the help he may need in the future, but also clearly analyzed the current situation.
It can be said that Wang Fan's impassioned statement, on the surface, seems to be showing his enthusiasm, but in fact it is analyzing the relationship between the elderly.
The meaning of the expression is also very simple.
First, China's semiconductor industry is in a bad situation. Mortal Technology has the ability to change the entire status quo and lead China's semiconductor industry to rise in an all-round way.
Second, Mortal Technology may encounter various obstacles in the process of leading the rise of China's entire semiconductor field. The government must provide help, otherwise it may be a loss for China as a whole.
