In the field of chip manufacturing, lithography machines are so famous that many people still don't understand what an etching machine is.

The lithography machine is equivalent to copying the designed circuit diagram to the silicon wafer, and the etching machine will carry out the construction according to this diagram.

The quality of the etching machine also determines the final process level of the chip.

Now the situation is clear.

EUV has all been made, and the world is currently the only one. As another big leap in the manufacturing process, what about the 10nm, 7nm or even 5nm processes, and the etching machine that goes with it?

So the Flint Group got this thing out together? Is it still human?

What makes these people's nerves extremely sensitive is three-dimensional etching!

3D flash memory is the result of three-dimensional chips!

The 3D three-gate transistor is the same three-dimensional design.

Now the quantum computer released by Flint Technology, how is its quantum gate designed?

These things must be in the same vein, right?

If this is the case, won't the global ICT industry in the future have to look at the faces of the Flint Group and Huaguo?

In the team that followed Ma Jiahui to visit, there were naturally also people in intelligence.

As soon as the message was sent back to Howard, Diane knew about it.

Quantum computer!EUV lithography machine and stereo etching machine of the same level!

The traditional core process of chip architecture has been surpassed!

The next generation of computing architecture, Huaguo took the lead in breaking through!

"Madam, it's not just an industrial problem right now! Security! Security in too many fields is facing a deadly threat right now! If the other party uses quantum computing, our encryption system is simply defenseless!"

The special scientific advisor looked a little crazy, which made Diane's brow furrow and her heart irritated.

After his presentation, it is now clear that the situation is already clear.

The danger is not yet coming, but the threat is real.

At present, almost all information security relies on asymmetric public-key encryption based on the RSA algorithm.

This algorithm, using the existing computing architecture, is almost impossible to crack. In the field of high-density security, 2048 or even 4096-bit RSA encryption is commonly used.

This level of encryption cannot be broken even if the world's most powerful supercomputing is called.

But the quantum computer is different, and it is very good at the RSA algorithm.

Although only a 100-qubit "prototype" has been announced...... Diane remembered the word prototype that the scientific advisor wailed frantically just now, both of which are 100 qubits, and they are called prototypes?...... But who knows how high the level of quantum computing technology Huaguo has now?

Once the number of qubits reaches tens of thousands, cracking RSA is really a matter of hand.

Shor has been a very effective cracking algorithm for the RSA algorithm for a long time, and theoretically speaking, a quantum computer at the 2000 qubit level can crack the current RSA encryption system in minutes.

And now, what field of security systems does not use computers? The encryption algorithm of all Internet devices is RSA!

“…… Is there a solution?" Diane felt very tired, and she knew it was impossible to break the quantum computer in the short term. And to reconstruct the field of algorithm security, a little thought about it is a big problem.

"It's too hard...... It's too hard...... Alternative algorithms are available, but ...... It's too broad. I bet that before we replace the security algorithms, Huaguo's quantum computer will break through the tipping point!"

Diane looked at him dissatisfied, bet, make a ghost bet!

"Madam, it makes no sense to increase the number of bits of the RSA algorithm, other symmetric algorithms or asymmetric algorithms are too passive solutions. The top priority, in addition to developing a new security framework at the international level to limit the development and threat of quantum computers in this regard, is to urgently start developing cryptographic standards for the post-quantum era!"

"Is there any preliminary research?" Diane knew about the development of standards, and this was bound to start the pressure test.

The scientific advisor was a little excited: "Yes! Someone foresaw this in the early years and did some research on cryptographic algorithms that can resist the attacks of quantum computers. For example, McEliece encryption, Merkle hash signature, etc. But until today, the threat of quantum computers to cryptographic algorithms has not appeared, so the enthusiasm and support for research are very small. Now, we need to restart these studies now and start soliciting cryptographic solutions for the post-quantum era on a large scale!"

"It's up to you to organize this, and start it right away!"

The scientific advisor raised a frown, his face beaming. He continued: "In addition, the research of quantum computers must also keep up. We can't just upgrade our shields, spears, it's fundamental!"

Diane couldn't help but knead her forehead: "Artificial intelligence...... Now it's quantum computers again...... How come our scientists and businesses are suddenly left behind!"

She knew very well in her heart that this was a new round of huge investment.

The problem is, the most scarce thing right now is money!

The scientific advisor was silenced by a sentence, and his heart was extremely helpless.

It's not that we're too stupid, but the other party has Gu Song!

This man ...... How can there be such endless creativity?

At the Lihu Conference, Gu Song was still talking on the stage to introduce the EUV lithography machine. Diane made some arrangements and immediately went to the Oval Office.

In the room, enough big people have gathered.

Everyone's faces were heavy, Mabao, Howard, Paulson, and the Secretary of Defense......

"Gentlemen, the situation is too serious. Quantum computers are spears, and quantum communications are shields. I don't believe that Hua Guo showed all the spears, and there would be no research on the shield. Now, how do we put pressure on quantum computers to be unregulated internationally?"

As soon as Diane entered the door, she spoke in a fierce tone.

Howard echoed: "In the consideration of world security, such key technologies should be made public, and the whole world should jointly formulate a roadmap for technological development!"

Paulson reluctantly said, "It doesn't make sense to say this. Let's discuss the specific means of pressure. ”

"The fleet needs to pass, I have already given the order," said the Minister of Defense. Need to schedule a drill?"

Diane had already thought a lot on the way over, and then said: "The interests of many countries are involved, and all countries and major international organizations need to stand up and call for it." In the economic and trade areas, there is also a need to respond to the pressure on China and Chinese enterprises. Especially...... Flintstone Group!"

"Media ......"

"Academia ......"

Ma Ba'ao listened to the room full of people talking to me, and felt deeply tired. As soon as he took office, he was faced with a financial crisis and internal unrest.

Externally, the withdrawal of troops from the Gulf has just been ordered, and the strategy for China is still being discussed, and suddenly a situation has emerged that has to be dealt with.

"Let Mr. Ma Jiahui have one more identity as my special envoy, and immediately start a high-level dialogue. I also need to exchange views with their leaders. Your proposals, implemented simultaneously. Lady Diane, arrange a time for another visit. This time, Bay Island was added to the itinerary. I need to go to Europe. ”

The discussion was over, and the huge country was immediately in action.

Walking out of the white building, Paulson felt that the sunlight outside seemed a little oppressive, and he couldn't help but think of the young man he met in Yanjing, Huaguo, in the middle of summer last year.

The driver, seeing him pondering on the side of the road, shouted, "Mr. Paulson, where are we going?"

"Go to Mr. Harold's estate!"
