Chapter 294: Gene Lock

With countless expectations, on August 2, the first highly integrated AI chip [Gemini] officially walked out of the production line.

Gemini has a more intelligent brain, because it is an AI chip, it cannot be directly converted into CPU hard indicators such as main frequency, memory bus speed, and extended bus speed, but it is simply beating traditional chips in terms of logic programs.

In addition, it integrates powerful GPU core functions, digital signal processing functions, 512G physical storage, coupled with sensitive and fast response speed, it can be said that Gemini AI chips will completely change the development direction of the world's semiconductors!

As soon as Gemini was unveiled, it immediately caused a sensation all over the world.

The Chinese media has covered it overwhelmingly;

Samsung, Intel, Hynix, Micron, Broadcom, Qualcomm and other world semiconductor giants have also expressed great concern about this.

However, some of the company's senior executives said in an interview with reporters that no company in the world currently has the technology to produce high-performance AI chips, and the subtext is that Xinghai Technology's Gemini AI chip is likely to be an oolong.

In the face of doubts from the outside world, Xinghai Technology held a global press conference at the group headquarters on the morning of August 15, and thousands of reporters from more than 100 countries and regions around the world witnessed the powerful functions of the Gemini AI chip, which made the on-site reporters and other participants stunned and surprised.

In the same extremely harsh test environment, the Gemini AI chip, with its own powerful functions, surpassed the top ten chips of Samsung, Qualcomm, and Intel that participated in the test, and became the king of "comprehensive performance".

What is the king of comprehensive performance?

Whether it is digital information processing, image processing, or read and access speed, all are the most powerful!

That's not all, the most important thing is that the price of chips is cheaper.

Because the traditional CPU, GPU, physical storage unit these hardware, are very expensive to buy separately, these hardware together account for at least 50% of the cost of a device, but a Gemini chip with the same performance, the pre-sale price is only 30%~50%.

And this "same performance" does not include Gemini's more powerful information processing power (CPU), if you count it, its price may only be about one-fifth of that of traditional hardware.

In other words, it won't be long before global electronic devices will usher in a big price reduction.

After the news was released, ordinary consumers were naturally happy, but the global semiconductor industry practitioners panicked all of a sudden.

Are you kidding?

If the price is so low, then the traditional chip manufacturing will not only not make a penny after removing raw materials and labor costs, but also lose money to grandma's house, which means that the global semiconductor industry chain will have to be reshuffled.

Those with vested interests will never allow such a situation to happen.

Even technological innovation must be mastered by them, not by Chinese companies taking the lead!

Soon, the world's major mainstream media smeared and spread rumors about Gemini AI chips, and not only abroad, but also domestic public knowledge, big V, and self-media who are just bad at money have also come out with rhythm and wanton abuse.

These war of words is nothing, and the real contest is behind what ordinary people can't see.

Qualcomm, Intel, Avago, ASML, Nvidia, Samsung, AMD, Hynix, Micron, etc., as well as some chemical companies such as Nippon Toray, Sumitomo, Shin-Etsu, and Mitsui, have exerted pressure on Xinghai Technology and its cooperative enterprises through various methods such as patents, equipment, and raw materials.

Trying to make Xinghai Technology give up the development of Gemini AI chips, no matter how bad it is, it has to share technology.

In the face of encirclement and suppression from all directions, Chen Xu also felt huge resistance.

Many people have already advised him not to be in such a hurry to push Gemini out for the time being.

Chen Xu knows what those people think, once the semiconductor industry is reshuffled, it will not only cause huge harm to Europe, America, Japan, South Korea and other countries, but also damage the interests of some vested interests in China.

They don't want to see things happen that are beyond their control!

However, Gemini's rise is unstoppable, and even if he wants to stop, the national side will not want to.

For a long time, China's high-end chips in core fields such as military, scientific research, medical care, and aerospace have been blocked by countries such as Europe, America, Japan, and South Korea.

What's more, the order from the Ministry F of the State has already begun to be designed.

……

In the Jinji Lake villa in Sioux City, Chen Xuzheng and He Gang were drinking tea on the balcony on the second floor to watch the scenery, and the burning clouds on the horizon were in full swing, like a spectacular oil painting.

In the large courtyard downstairs, Chen Yiyi was washing the car with a high-pressure gun, and a sturdy husky next to him was running around chasing the water gun nozzle, and the white hair on his neck had been dyed gray by the muddy water on the car.

This Erha is naturally the "microsphere" that Tong Lisha gave to Chen Xu.

After Chen Yiyi used a high-pressure gun to "nourish" the microsphere, he raised his head and shouted: "Brother~ I haven't seen Sister Sasha for a long time, are you quarreling?"

"Nope. On the balcony on the second floor, Chen Xutou said without replying.

Chen Yiyi looked at the microsphere grinning again, and asked, "What about her?"

Chen Xu didn't answer.

Chen Yiyi put down the high-pressure gun one by one and ran into the house "puff".

After coming to the balcony on the second floor, she sat on the rosewood chair next to Chen Xu, picked up the black tea He Gang poured for her, and took a sip of it.

As soon as she wanted to speak, Chen Xu smiled and asked, "Did you meet a boy you like in college?"

"Nope. ”

"Not a single one?"

"Uh......" Chen Yiyi thought about it and said no, but after thinking about it, he still said: "I met one." ”

After saying that, Chen Yiyi didn't wait for Chen Xu to ask, so he took the initiative to confess: "He is my senior, two years older than me, I met when I first entered the school, and I studied medicine." He is enthusiastic, versatile, and good-looking, making him the ideal boyfriend for many girls. ”

"More 'wealth', more 'billion' and 'handsome' are the key points, this is a must-ask question when drawn!" Chen Xu accentuated his tone on Caiyi and Shuai.

Chen Yiyi said: "I'm talking about talent, not family wealth." His family is rural and doesn't have much money. ”

"Just be rich and handsome! And boys are handsome, and chasing girls is more important than being rich. Chen Xu said with a smile, and He Gang lit a cigar by himself, "And then?"

Chen Yiyi fanned the cigar smell floating in his nose with his hand, and said, "And then there is no then, he got a full scholarship to Stanford University School of Medicine, and he was the only one in their class." ”

Chen Xu nodded and smiled: "Awesome! No wonder you like him." ”

Chen Yiyi said: "Brother, don't change the topic, what's wrong with you and Sister Sasha?"

"Not really, it's good. After a pause, Chen Xu said, "Let me ask you a question, what do you think is the biggest obstacle to limiting human lifespan?"

Chen Yiyi thought for a while and said, "It should be oxygen." ”

Chen Xu changed his sitting posture and said with a smile: "Oh, why oxygen?"

Chen Yiyi said: "Because oxygen has an oxidizing effect. If there is an air that does not oxidize and can be breathed by humans, then I believe that the life span of human beings will be extended indefinitely, and even all things will be immortal. ”

"That's an interesting idea. ”

Chen Yiyi knew that Xinghai Technology's life engineering technology was very advanced, and it was said that he had solved some terminal diseases, so he retorted curiously: "What do you think, brother?"

Chen Xu took a puff of his cigar and said, "I think it's a gene lock!"

"What does the gene lock mean?" Chen Yiyi wondered, it was the first time she had heard of this thing!

Chen Xu said slowly: "Human cells can divide and regenerate, old cells divide and regenerate new cells are metabolized, and then the new cells control the body to keep people young and vigorous.

According to scientific research, on average, the cells of the human body will be replaced every seven years, and even in terms of physical body, you seven years ago and you are not the same body now.

However, cell regeneration is controlled by a certain force, and the number of times it divides is limited, even if the nutrients are sufficient and the existing cells are healthy, the cell begins to slow down or even stop dividing when the number of divisions is reached.

It is illogical from a certain point of view to have the ability and conditions to suicidally stop growing.

It's like a human gene is a piece of code, and when the code stops, no matter how high-end the computer is, it can't run, and this code that restricts humans is called a gene lock. ”
