Magic City,

After two days of hard work, the first quantum computer was successfully born, and it only took more than 300 seconds to perform one million operations on an instance on the random sampling algorithm of the state space.

Compared with Google's 200 seconds, Xu Mang still needs to walk a lot.

Next

It's to increase the qubit capacity of the chip, to 75 qubits.

"Stupid?"

"Wait a minute, will you order takeout?" Yang Xiaoman didn't go to work today, under the daily and night work in the past few days, his body and mind are on the verge of collapse, and he must have a good rest for a day, of course... Today's day is also special.

"Whatever. ”

"Just call a little bit. Xu Mang sat in front of the computer, carefully looking at the news on the screen, frowning while looking at the information, he saw that CNN in the United States began to target himself again, and this group of people was really persistent.

"Xiao Man?" Xu Mang asked curiously, "Are there problems with Americans' brains?"

"What's wrong?"

"I've been targeted by CNN again, I'm so angry!" Xu Mang said helplessly: "Don't be caught by me, otherwise you'll kill them." ”

“...”

"Just ignore it, you won't go to America anyway. Yang Xiaoman said nonchalantly: "That's right... How about we eat abalone rice at noon? A new abalone restaurant has been opened, and the online rating is quite high, about 400 per person. ”

"Oh..."

Xu Mang looked at CNN's report, so angry that he smoked, and almost didn't hack the other party's official website.

"I'm!"

"This damn CNN, a bunch of idiots!" Xu Mang directly closed the web page, walked straight to the sofa, and then collapsed on the sofa, glanced at your Xiaoman beside him, and asked curiously: "School is about to start... Are you going to military training?"

"No, I don't. ”

"I graduated early and passed my dissertation. Yang Xiaoman said indifferently: "To be precise... I am an associate PhD in economics. ”

"Awesome!"

"This can be there. Xu Mang said with a smile: "Fortunately, you took me down in advance, otherwise with the fact that you are a super rich second generation and a female doctor, I estimate... You're going to die alone. ”

"Get out!"

"My lady is so beautiful, everyone who chases me is lined up. Yang Xiaoman said angrily: "What's wrong with the female doctor? The female doctor recruited you to provoke you? Why do you look down on the female doctor?"

Xu Mang shrank his head and said cautiously: "Don't button your hat indiscriminately... I came to the conclusion based on social surveys, like you, who runs a high-tech company, and then has the status of a female doctor, belongs to the super-level existence in the leftover women's world, and has a loud nickname - Monkey King!"

Yang Xiaoman: @#¥%...!

I...

What does this guy think all day?

"Have you had too much energy lately?" Yang Xiaoman glared at Xu Mang, and said defiantly: "Let you die at night!"

Xu Mang: Embarrassed

Nima,

It's ruthless!

"Ahem!" Xu Mang smiled awkwardly and politely: "Don't make trouble... Day by day, think about something useless, say that your relatives are gone? I see that your temper has recently returned to normal, and you were angry at every turn before, and I ate an apple, and you scolded me. ”

Speaking of which,

Yang Xiaoman's handsome little face couldn't help but flush with a burst of redness, and said in a squeaky voice: "I can't help it... And I can't be blamed for this, who made you have a face that is not beaten, and you are even beaten so badly when you eat an apple. ”

Words fall,

Yang Xiaoman was suddenly hugged by Xu Mang, and this sudden action scared her enough, but more of an expectation... I haven't been together for a few days, and I feel a little impulsive in my heart.

"You... What are you going to do?" Yang Xiaoman said in a voice like a mosquito ant: "In broad daylight... Don't mess around. ”

"Hey, hey, hey..."

"I'm going to..."

Words fall,

Suddenly, the door was opened, and Mother Yang walked in, and then saw her daughter and son-in-law lying on the sofa, the two behaved quite strangely, and said helplessly: "It seems that it is not the time..."

Followed by

Silently left the house.

“...”

“...”

Suddenly,

The room was silent.

"It's all your fault!"

"Now it's okay... How can I stay in this house in the future, old lady?" Yang Xiaoman said angrily: "What are you in a daze? Hurry up and get on!"

Xu Mang: ???

...

The afternoon time was very leisurely, Xu Mang and Yang Xiaoman were lying on the sofa, basically not moving, and Yang's father and Yang's mother each called, saying that they would work overtime tonight, and they would not come back to live, and they would solve it by themselves for dinner.

Overtime?

Obviously this is a lie.

"How's the progress of your research?" Yang Xiaoman lay on Xu Mang's body and asked curiously: "Many people are asking me about your quantum chip and when will the research results be posted on the Internet." ”

"Who asked you?" Xu Mang looked at Xiao Man curiously.

"The employees under my company, and some classmates. Yang Xiaoman said.

"Oh..."

"It will be made public in a while. Xu Mang said indifferently: "But this is just the beginning, it seems to be still behind." ”

Then

Xu Mang's mobile phone rang, and he glanced at the caller, and it turned out to be Professor Smith calling.

"Hello?"

"Professor Smith?" Xu Mang asked with a confused expression, "Is there anything you want me to do?"

"Xu Mang?"

"It's been good lately, isn't it?" Professor Smith laughed, "Now that the whole world is reporting about you, I can't imagine that you have quietly started to develop a quantum computer, which surprises me a little, many people are paying attention to you." ”

"Feel free to study it. Xu Mang smiled and said, "Professor Smith... You didn't call me to talk to me about this, did you?"

"Hehe..."

"Yes!" Professor Smith said, "the head of Google's Quantum Computer Research Laboratory, Professor Merck wants to ask you something, I don't know... Do you have time?"

"Huh?"

"Google Quantum Computer Research Laboratory?" Xu Mang was stunned for a moment, and asked suspiciously, "What are you looking for me to do?"

"I don't know. ”

"Anyway, you'll know when we meet. Professor Smith said, "They're going to come to China, your city, you... What do you think?"

Xu Mang thought for a moment and said silently: "Okay... You ask them to stay at the Modu International Hotel, then give me a call and I'll meet them. ”

afterwards

The two chatted about their views on quantum computers, and basically their opinions were relatively unanimous, and they both believed that quantum computers could not completely replace traditional computers, and in some respects, traditional computers were still better than quantum computers.

Hang up the phone,

Yang Xiaoman looked at Xu Mang curiously: "What's wrong?"

"Google looked for me. ”

"It seems... Something begging me. Xu Mang frowned and said seriously, "What technology do you still lack over there?"

"Uh..."

"I'll make you a list tomorrow. Yang Xiaoman said: "When the time comes, you will follow the requirements on the list." ”

"Okay!"

...

Time flies minute by minute,

In this time, Xu Mang has almost completed the leap from 50 qubits to 75 qubits, and the engineers are currently working the assembly, and now they are working harder than before, after all, they all know what they are doing.

But...

There are some problems in the packaging of the chip, and this problem has not been solved so far, Xu Mang can not do anything about it, after all, it is not his field, the current packaging technology is provided by the Supercomputing Center of the Academy of Sciences, which is a special improved version.

It is worth mentioning,

Now Xu Mang has become the director of quantum computers of the Academy of Sciences, and officially took up his post in mid-September, and his place of work is in the magic capital, for which he has also rented a special site for future work and research.

Although everything is going very smoothly at the moment, Xu Mang's face does not show a trace of ease, how to integrate multiple chips, maintain the fluency of qubits, and can perfectly run topology-based planar coding, this Xu Mang has not yet been solved.

On this day,

Suddenly, I received a phone call from a caller who spoke fluent American English.

"Professor Xu?"

"I'm the head of Google's Quantum Computer Research Lab, Merck. Professor Merck said, "Are you free now?"

"Oh..."

"Available. ”

"I'm nearby, you wait for me at the café on the seventh floor. Xu Mang said.

soon

Xu Mang went to the seventh floor of the hotel, and saw four foreigners by a window.

"Professor Merck?"

"Professor Xu?"

After a short exchange, the two sides got to know each other, and in the face of the small team of four people, Xu Mang behaved more calmly and asked: "I don't know why you Google suddenly asked me for help?"

"Ahem..."

"We want to buy some photoresist material adhesives from your place. Professor Merck reluctantly said: "It is mainly used to develop... Some materials. ”

Xu Mang was stunned for a moment, slowly got up and said to Professor Merck, "Goodbye!"

Words fall,

Straight away.

“？？？”

“？？？”

“？？？”

This...

That's it?

Too decisive, right?

"Professor Xu!"

"Wait a minute!" Professor Merck hurriedly stopped Xu Mang and said nervously, "We are willing to pay a high price for adhesives!"

But

Xu Mang didn't stop, and walked forward without looking back.

At this time, Professor Merck was anxious and shouted at Xu Mang: "We will agree to any conditions, as long as we buy a little adhesive!"

Then

Xu Mang stopped, glanced back at Professor Merck, returned to his original position, and said with a serious face: "Actually... I'm not the kind of person you fantasize about, and I know that your American media has set me up as a technology blackmail who specializes in deceiving Europeans and Americans. ”

"I'm sorry..."

"You really misunderstood me!" Xu Mang said seriously: "This misunderstanding is a bit big!"

Just when Professor Merck looked confused,

suddenly

Xu Mang took out the folded paper from his trouser pocket, slowly spread it out, and then slapped it directly on the table.
