Chapter 233: Auction

The supercomputing thing, under the gaze of everyone, from the sensation, to the hustle and bustle, and then to the final calm, the process is full of twists and turns, and it is estimated that if it is interpreted with the Beijing rhyme drum, it should be able to waste a lot of saliva of the storyteller.

Supercomputing caused such a big impact, which surprised Zhang Yi, and also made him realize that he was no longer the soft-spoken little deflated person before.

Someone hit him before, he could only be barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, go into battle shirtless, and have a meat-to-flesh Mongolian-style wrestling.

And now, the chips in his hand are so big that no one dares to take them lightly, and he has reached the point where he can negotiate with others on an equal footing.

Just when the popularity of supercomputing gradually faded, the micro-hardware and software Tianchao Branch announced the supercomputing leasing plan on its official website.

No matter any person, company, or unit, as long as they pay rent, as long as the business is legally permitted, they can lease the computing power of supercomputers.

As soon as it was announced, it immediately caused a huge response.

You must know that Sam Country's several supercomputers are not at all at the mercy of ordinary enterprises. Either the supercomputer at Alamos National Laboratory in Oak Ridge is mainly used to simulate nuclear tests, or the IB is as wealthy as IB and spends a lot of money to build a supercomputer just to beat the chess grandmaster and demonstrate the IB's advanced technology, and of course, its ultimate goal is to multiply the IB's stock several times. Because everyone was shocked by the super computing power displayed by IB's deep blue, people couldn't help but look forward to the great development of robot technology.

Only people in the industry know that it is absolutely impossible for Deep Blue to achieve great development in artificial intelligence with current technology.

Of course, there is also the supercomputer at the CIA's Lanli headquarters, and this supercomputer only serves the CIA's intelligence officers.

These supercomputers, without exception, are not open to individuals or small businesses.

Micro-hardware and software, on the other hand, are cold and can be used as long as they pay the rent. This is the No. 1 company in the world, and it is estimated that it will not be the second company to open supercomputing capacity for a long time in the future.

Companies that have a demand for supercomputing power are boiling in an instant.

Engineering and technical personnel have been dispatched to contact with microhardware and software to discuss the use of supercomputing.

As a boss Zhang Yi who is determined to carry out the great cause of laziness to the end, he just made a price list like selling cabbage, and after handing it over to Bai Jie for specific treatment, he disappeared completely.

Bai Jie, who has no experience, found Daryl while slandering the little man in his heart. For this kind of thing that is destined to become the focus of the world, Daryl likes it the most, and he didn't say it, and gathered all the companies and individuals who need computing together, and auctioned off the computing power and use time of supercomputing at a clear price.

To everyone's surprise, this auction in Haijin City of the Celestial Empire was not the most popular among the users of the Celestial Empire.

It's from the Lion City of Southeast Asia and the companies from the plaster country.

The Lion City users are the meteorological department in charge of the Lion City, and they have paid a huge amount of money to use 10 computing power for one hour every week of the year, and analyze the satellite meteorological cloud images of the Sam's Country meteorological satellites they purchased through supercomputing, predict the weather conditions in Southeast Asia, and predict meteorological disasters within a certain range.

The buyers of the plaster country are mainly from several major automotive giants, and their cars need to use supercomputing power in all aspects of design, wind resistance testing, and body balance, and with the support of supercomputing power, their new car research and development cycle can be greatly shortened. Before, they didn't have any chance of touching supercomputing.

The most surprising thing is that from a Czech arms manufacturer, the name of this company is Skoda Industrial Technologies, yes, it is called Skoda, but it is not the Skoda that was later acquired by Volkswagen and produced cars in the Celestial Empire. In fact, at this time, Zhang Yi knew that Skoda was established long before World War I, and its main products were military products. This company is a company under Skoda that specializes in the production of light weapons, and the main purpose of renting a supercomputer is to design the mold of small arms and test the ballistics of bullets.

In the civilian market of Sam Country, the company's weapons products are very popular.

In Egypt, far away in Africa, there is also a hydropower company bidding, whose goal is to simulate the impact of the dam on the middle and lower reaches of the large dam that it is about to build, relying on the mathematical model established by the Western design firm.

You must know that the Aswan Hydropower Station built in Egypt before was not scientifically calculated and certified in the early days, and as a result, it had a great impact on the middle and lower reaches of the Nile. Now that there is a ready-made supercomputer of the Celestial Empire, before it is built, it is definitely a good thing to benefit the country and the people.

Seeing that the bidders were so enthusiastic, causing the auction price to rise, Daryl's face turned into a chrysanthemum.

However, thinking about the little trick played by the boss, he was a little worried.

Alas, if you work for others, you have to obey the will of others. According to his idea, the matter of another supercomputer should not be revealed at all, and after the auction of the right to use the first supercomputer is successful, the right to use the second supercomputer will be auctioned every once in a while, and the price will not fall too much.

Darryl walked up to the stage, raised his hand to interrupt the auction house, picked up the microphone and said, "My boss asked me to tell you a little secret." ”

As soon as they heard the secret, everyone pricked up their ears to see what the former Wall Street elite would expose.

Watch as everyone waits intently for news of him, Daryl

nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "Tianqi Micro Hardware and Software Company currently has two supercomputers, not one. One is in Haijin City, which everyone knows. The other is in the Special Economic Zone (SEZ) near Hong Kong. So you don't have to worry, you can't succeed in the auction. ”

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and everyone was stunned, one company actually has two supercomputers, which is the only one in the world at present. And everyone has not forgotten that the micro-hardware and software Sam Country Branch, but there is also a supercomputer, but it does not have a plan to open Sam Country's supercomputer, in fact, Sam's country's supercomputer, there is indeed no condition for opening to the outside world, you know, World of Warcraft is in full swing on the supercomputer, that is the most important part of Zhang Yi's future plan, it is impossible to affect the normal plan of World of Warcraft for a little money.

What Daryl didn't expect was that the auction of the two supercomputers did not affect the auction price, and even many companies that had already auctioned off the right to use the supercomputer excitedly joined the auction of the second supercomputer, which made him very puzzled.

In fact, so many companies in different fields come to auction the right to use supercomputing, and everyone is in harmony and try not to maliciously raise the price of each other, so as not to affect the auction price in the future.

But with a second supercomputer, the balance was quickly shattered.

The Lion City Meteorological Department has frequently put up signs, hoping to gain more time to use them. If it were to meet their needs, they would love to use supercomputing every day to get more accurate weather services.

In the previous auction, some people were able to roughly estimate the profitability of the supercomputer, but the auction of the second license greatly raised its price.

Someone who cares about it has calculated at will, according to the current auction price, in less than two years, the micro hardware and software will be able to recover all the investment, and there will be a slight surplus.

No way, monopoly is the biggest source of profit in the world, because no one competes with you, you can set whatever price you want. Even if Zhang Yiding's price is increased several times, someone will pay, because your needs, as long as he can meet them, you have no choice, in other words, there is no competition, then there is a reasonable price to speak of.

Just like the telecom operators of the Celestial Empire in the previous life, the purpose of dividing and merging and merging is nothing more than to increase competition and improve better services for users.

Sam Country's supercomputer, at this time, is being practiced day and night by Blizzard's technicians.

With the help of supercomputing, coupled with a large number of artists and testers from the Stick Country and the Celestial Empire, Adhan even boldly advocated to Zhang Yi that Warcraft could be launched at least two years ahead of schedule.

For Blizzard's management, Zhang Yi has always been a boutique concept, and Zhang Yi does not interfere. However, he used a better environment to spur them to speed up the progress of game development and testing.

The current micro-hardware and software, relying on the continuous hot sales of the legend and the sudden rise of miracles, has occupied the online online game market of the Celestial Empire 90.

And the ground promotion, through the continuous expansion

The legendary Internet café chain has extended its tentacles to a broader market.

The capacity of supercomputing, Zhang Yi retains a part of his own resources, and the legendary and miracle game servers around the world are integrated by supercomputing through high-speed networks.

According to the original technical conditions, the maximum capacity of a server is about 5,000 people, if the number of people accommodated is more, the server will freeze and crash, affecting the player's gaming experience.

After being integrated by supercomputing, the number of online users per server has increased to about 20,000, which is already a super-first-class level at present.

Players, unconsciously, found that when entering the game, there will be no longer waiting in line, playing the game is smoother, and when entering the dungeon or changing the map, the reading time is significantly shorter, and sometimes, it is even seconds. And in large-scale team battle scenes, there will no longer be the phenomenon that after releasing skills, the game screen will be stuck into a cartoon.

And Zhang Yi's ultimate goal is to reserve technology for World of Warcraft, and at the same time, to integrate more enterprise resources in supercomputing to achieve the purpose of resource sharing.
