Chapter 325 World Internet Conference
The weather in Wuzhen in August is not as gentle as that of Jiangnan women, and the hot weather tells everyone that when the summer temperature comes, no one can run.
Under the scorching temperature, the ancient town has a sense of technology and the times, and the streets of the ancient town have become lively.
Three days later, on August 20, the 2020 World Internet Conference will be held here.
The purpose of the World Internet Conference is to increase the opportunities for exchanges and communication between the computer and Internet industry in Xia and the world, and to promote the development of the world's computer technology and Internet ecology.
Of course, this is a rhetoric on the surface. In essence, in order to strengthen the international competitiveness of Xia Guo's Internet enterprises, it is hoped that through this world conference, Xia Guo's Internet enterprises can see the gap with the world's Internet enterprises, and also hope that Xia Guo's enterprises can make their products go out through this conference.
This conference is the seventh, in the past seven years, the Internet enterprises in Xia have indeed made great progress, and the capital of Xia and the world has also taken advantage of this east wind to invest a large amount of money in Internet enterprises in Xia Kingdom.
Driven by capital, Xia Guo's Internet business has indeed developed, but Xiao Ming seems that many companies are actually lost - not looking in the right direction.
For example, capital has piled up shared bicycles, online car-hailing, food delivery platforms and leather bag companies under the guise of Internet +.
In all fairness, capital has indeed promoted the development of the Internet world in Xia Kingdom, but its role is extremely limited. Because most of Xia Guoda's enterprises are making content, and the black core equipment and key monopoly technologies such as algorithms and hardware are all in the hands of Westerners, until Pangu Technology is born.
Before Xiao Ming and Lin Li arrived in Wuzhen, many Internet giants had already arrived first.
The world's technology tycoons all know that the current era of Internet technology is in an important period of change, and the entire market is also in a period of elimination and reorganization.
In particular, companies in the United States and South Korea, after the Samsung incident, Western tech giants are re-examining their strategies, and this conference is also an important opportunity to get a real look at Pangu technology.
Pangu Technology shined at the Xia Guo Computer Annual Conference in Yanjing a few months ago, and has become a representative company of Xia Guo Internet, which has been highly valued by the organizers. The whole process is shuttled by special plane and car, staying in the best hotel, next door is Feng Yuan, the actual controller of Ali, and Feng Tianyu, the boss of Penguin.
Any one of them was the object of Xiao Ming's envy a few years ago, but he didn't expect that a few years later, Xiao Ming would participate in this grand event with the two bigwigs.
In the corridor of the hotel, Xiao Ming and Feng Yuan exchanged a few simple words.
Xiao Ming and Feng Yuan didn't have much contact, but Pangu Technology and Ari still had a lot of cooperation.
For example, he helped Ari provide the Prajna chip, and assisted Ari in developing applications adapted to Ari based on the Pangu ecosystem
Feng Yuan politely thanked Pangu Technology for its technical support, which allowed Ari's servers to completely get rid of their dependence on Intel and achieve localization.
In addition, Feng Yuan also said quite mysteriously: "At this conference, Ali will show the world our new ideas, and we have cooperated with Baidu for some products, which will be unveiled at this conference." ”
Feng Yuan sold Xiao Ming a pass, and did not specify the content of the new product, but Xiao Ming could use his imagination.
Ali has been committed to the development of unmanned supermarkets and unmanned hotels during this time, and Baidu has always hoped that he can break through the search engine-based Baidu products, and is committed to the breakthrough of new technology and new products.
This breakthrough point is artificial intelligence.
Then, through two known conditions, it can be inferred that the new product developed by Ari + Baidu should be based on the practical application of artificial intelligence.
Xiao Ming smiled and said quite modestly: "Pangu Technology came to learn from you this time, and we still have many shortcomings. ”
Feng Yuan's character is indeed admirable, and he encouraged Xiao Ming and said: "Our generation should actually retreat into the background, the future belongs to you, we can't keep up with the times." ”
Feng Yuan's mentality is very good, and he knows that people of an era should do an era thing, which may be the reason for his success.
Lin Li listened to the conversation between Xiao Ming and Feng Yuan behind Xiao Ming, and after Feng Yuan left, he sighed and said: "Five years ago, when I was still a Zhongxing programmer, I was imagining that one day I would be able to say a few words to Feng Yuan. ”
Xiao Ming smiled: "Has your dream come true today?"
"Of course!" Lin Li said excitedly, "Feng Yuan said 'good evening' to me. ”
Xiao Ming's facial muscles twitched a little: ......
The next day, the Internet conference was held like this, in addition to the major science and technology leaders at home and abroad, there were many experts and scholars in the Internet industry and the heads of ZF departments.
Not far away, Xiao Ming saw Cui Zhiyuan, CEO of Samsung who did not have a good face, and representatives of Apple, Qualcomm, Intel, and Microsoft.
According to the information obtained by Qian Yi, the main purpose of the companies in South Korea and the United States to participate in this meeting is to repair the relationship with the enterprises of Xia Kingdom, in addition to bringing their own new products.
According to Xiao Ming's understanding, the World Internet Conference is more like a martial arts alliance, and whoever shows great technology will establish the status of the boss in the Internet technology industry.
The agenda for the first day was simple, with a meeting to listen to the report and take notes.
The leaders of the organizers summarized the current situation of global Internet development last year and imagined the future trend of the Internet.
Among them, the most mentioned are big data, artificial intelligence, VR, AR technology and 5G communication.
The next day, I also listened to the report, but the report was made by the world's major technology bigwigs and industry experts.
For example, Dylan said that blockchain encryption will become the mainstream of the world.
Xiao Chu complained: We are all quantum encryption, and they are still talking about blockchain encryption, which is really a low-level summit.
Xiao Ming comforted: Calm.
For example, Kolber is talking about a golden age of architecture for computers, and the Turing Award winner also said that with the end of Moore's Law, the only way to get a faster computer is to improve the design or 'architecture' of the computer.
The architecture here is, of course, based on the low-level design of a binary computer.
Xiao Chu had to complain again, "Just here the theory can win the Turing Award?"
Xiao Ming said: "Calmly, this concept is already very advanced. ”
Meetings, speeches, all the bigwigs from all sides, you sing, come and I will appear.
Finally, when the conference attracts the most attention, major domestic and foreign companies will have their own exhibition halls and time to announce their current most advanced technologies.
