Chapter 240: Supercomputers and Artificial Intelligence

When Cheng Yuan came in, what he saw was a huge hollowed-out steel frame.

The basic structure of the airship has a vague prototype, and the staff here, some of them are carrying steel, and some are welding on the airship frame.

Cheng Yuan was a little surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, he also understood that it was completely unnecessary for him to stay in the capital these days.

He thought this at first, because he was afraid that something would go wrong with the other party, and when the time came, he would have to make another trip. And the source of his idea came from the Z1 base.

At the beginning, he stayed at the Z1 base for a long time, and every day he solved various manufacturing difficulties for the entire base.

It was with the 'experience' of the last time that Cheng Yuan became a little cautious.

But now looking at the progress of the airship R&D center, he suddenly realized that compared with the Z1 robot, the manufacture of the airship is much simpler for them.

Basically, there are no difficulties that need to be solved by Cheng Yuan.

And what he gave to the airship R&D center was only a framework for the manufacture of an airship.

In this way, there is naturally no difficulty in manufacturing.

All this is Cheng Yuan's wishful thinking.

"Mr. Cheng, why are you free to come to me today?" As soon as he saw Cheng Yuan, Cui Tao hurriedly greeted him with a smile on his face.

Cui Tao is so enthusiastic about Cheng Yuan, not just because Cheng Yuan has a relationship behind him. What's more, in his eyes, Cheng Yuan is their God of Wealth.

The production of an airship, the cost is not much, it is said that it is not much, it is said that it is not much, millions are definitely needed, even if there is no core control system inside, but they will still charge the fees that should be charged, and they also know that Cheng Yuan is outrageously rich, so millions are simply a drizzle for him.

But for them, this is an increase in funding for their own research.

It's different from other research institutes. The Airship R&D Center can be described as a real Qingshui Yamen, no matter how bad other research institutes are, they all use their own research institutes' own projects to find a lot of economic resources. And their airship R&D center is different.

In Huaxia, who would get an airship when they have nothing to eat and are full?

Not to mention whether to let it fly, the key is that the place to park and the maintenance require a lot of money.

The most important thing is that in order to make the airship take off, the buyer also needs to buy a lot of supporting facilities and hire relevant professionals!

Unlike helicopters and small airplanes, you get a pilot's license and then you can fly on your own.

Airships are not something that can be played alone.

So, I personally want to get a search airship. But it's very difficult.

This also leads to the fact that their airship R&D center can only rely on the state to issue R&D funds, and there is no other source of income except for funds from the state.

Now that there is a Cheng Yuan who sends them money, Cui Tao is naturally more enthusiastic.

After all, the materials used to build the airship for Cheng Yuan were specially allocated from above, so he was naturally willing to do it.

Cheng Yuan took his eyes off the rough frame of the airship, looked at Cui Tao and said with a smile: "I came to see your production progress, and secondly, I just want to say hello to you, I'm going back to Anhe City, there are still many things waiting for me to deal with." ”

"So fast, don't stay for a few more days?" Cui Tao politely retained.

Of course. Cui Tao was just polite, after all, he was not familiar with Cheng Yuan, if it weren't for this airship mission, the two would not have had any intersection at all.

Cheng Yuan didn't react to Cui Tao's politeness. He didn't know whether the other party was sincere or hypocritical, Cheng Yuan didn't think about it, in his thoughts. The two will communicate at most this time, and he doesn't know if there will be any more contact in the future.

Cheng Yuan shook his head and said, "No need." I've been to almost all the places I've been to in the past few days, so it's time to go back. ”

"Well, then I won't keep you. Seeing this, Cui Tao didn't say anything more.

Afterwards, the two chatted for a while about the progress of the airship, and Cheng Yuan said goodbye and left.

Leaving the airship R&D center, Cheng Yuan returned directly to the hotel under the leadership of Yang Wei.

After Cheng Yuan came back, Guo Xiaolian didn't say a word, and left the hotel directly and drove towards the airport.

......

"Chief, Cheng Yuan is gone, why don't you see him?"

Zhongnanhai, in an antique office, No. 1 sat calmly in a chair, and the secretary asked in a whisper.

Hearing this, No. 1 chuckled lightly and said, "We just met, this time we came to the capital, let them have a good time with a few little guys, what did my old man look like in the past?"

Waving his hand, Number One continued: "Have you brought the information from the Airship R&D Center?"

"I brought it, but what Cheng Yuan took out this time was very ordinary, and the total length of the airship was eighteen meters, the bilge height was two meters, and the length was seven meters. This is the basic data of the airship he designed this time. The secretary said respectfully.

When No. 1 heard this, he was also stunned, and wondered: "That's all, is there anything else?"

The secretary shook his head and said, "No, Cheng Yuan just asked the personnel of the airship R&D center to help make the general framework of an airship this time, and the internal things were not entrusted to the other party." ”

"Well, then don't worry about him, and we'll see when his stratospheric solar power plant is ready. Number One smiled and stopped the matter.

Seeing this, the secretary did not mention the matter anymore and quickly changed the topic.

"Chief, we withdrew from the TIER program, and some of the supplies that were previously shipped in the past have been returned, and are they now distributed directly to our own R&D department?"

When it comes to the TIER plan, No. 1's face has also become a little unsightly, and he was squeezed out for no reason.

"Distribute them all, since they have squeezed us out, we have to work on our own, has that holographic projection technology begun to spread to the research institutes below?"

"It has been distributed, but I heard Director Liu Changqing say that without a matching supercomputer, it is difficult for the holographic projection platform to have a better effect, and the holographic projection platform of the Huaxia Academy of Science and Technology completely relies on the huge computing rate of 'Tianhe-2'. The secretary quickly said what he knew.

The secretary's words made No. 1 frown and asked, "Could it be that the computers in those research institutes below are not useful?"

The secretary smiled bitterly and explained: "The holographic projection platform is a very advanced technology. Only with a highly intelligent artificial intelligence program can it be used to its maximum function. The Huaxia Institute of Science and Technology can use it, which is completely made up by the super operation law of Tianhe-2, and in terms of intelligence, our existing technology cannot do it at all. ”

"You mean, if there is no good artificial intelligence, we will have to equip those research institutes with supercomputers that are exactly the same as Tianhe-2?" 1 frowned even more, the cost of Tianhe-2 was not a small amount.

Having other research institutes equip the same supercomputer would definitely be a huge strain on the country's finances.

After all, the place where the state wants to use money is in all aspects, and it is impossible to use all the money in this one place.

The secretary nodded and said, "For now, this is the case. Unless ......"

The secretary hesitated, glanced cautiously at One, but did not dare to continue.

"Unless what?" said One's brow lifted slightly.

The secretary hurriedly said: "Unless we can get Cheng Yuan to hand over artificial intelligence to us, we can only spend a lot of money to configure a supercomputer like Tianhe-2 for each thermonuclear fusion research institute." ”

"Is that really the only way?" One looked at his secretary, his gaze becoming a little sharp.

The secretary was taken aback by the number one looking at him like this, and he tried to keep himself calm and explained, "Chief, this is the solution I have come up with. There may be other ways to help us solve this dilemma. ”

"That's right. No. 1 pondered for a while, and then said, "I'll consider this opinion, you can go out first." ”

"Yes. The secretary replied respectfully, then turned and walked out. Although he couldn't see No. 1 at this time, he knew that No. 1 was staring at him, and a feeling like a man on his back made his heart almost jump out of his throat.

Until after he left the room. This feeling slowly faded.

Wiping the cold sweat oozing from his forehead, the secretary took a breath and said with palpitations: "It seems that this Cheng Yuan is really getting attention." I'm just mentioning it, that's it, chief. I really can't imagine that those people are still ready to do something to Cheng Yuan. ”

The secretary shook his head, he was naturally clear about someone targeting Cheng Yuan, regardless of whether they used 'legitimate' business means or not, he knew that the technology crystallization company was fine, and once something happened, the chief would definitely give the other party a thunderous blow!

This is definitely not a joke.

Cheng Yuan's appearance has brought great benefits to the country, and he knows very well at this level.

Although it is very infuriating that the ITER plan will squeeze out Huaxia this time, but in their position, who here does not know that the reason why the other party will exclude Huaxia is not because the rise of Huaxia during this period is too terrifying.

The incomparably advanced artificial intelligence, the Z1 large robot that is circulating abroad, and the high-quality graphene that is constantly being exported are constantly stimulating the nerves of foreign forces.

Not to mention the holographic projection technology that they haven't revealed yet!

The other party did this completely to block the possible strong rise of Huaxia.

Although they were excluded from the TIER program, this is not another development of Huaxia? If they were still involved in the ITER program in the past, Huaxia would not dare to make a breakthrough in this area, after all, the contract is there, and if you dare to say it, it means that you have to share the technology in your hands.

Now without this contract, they can develop with confidence, and all this idea is based on holographic projection technology, with this technology, Huaxia is definitely countless times faster than the participating countries of the ITER program in thermonuclear fusion research!

Of course, to fully exploit the full power of holographic projection, artificial intelligence is an essential technology.

And this technology is in the hands of Cheng Yuan, what the country wants to do, this is not something he can guess, anyway, the secretary can guess from the attitude of No. 1, even if they want this technology, they will not mess with Cheng Yuan. (To be continued.) )
