Chapter Seventy-Six: Quantum Computers
"Is it Kobayashi?" Mother Xue Yuehua had a smile on her face.
Han Xiao nodded helplessly, he was indeed uneasy.
"You're going to build a quantum computer? Have you thought about it? Han Zhengguo didn't mean to look at the joke, and asked seriously, obviously he heard Lin Qingxuan's words.
Han Xiao nodded, in his heart, like Lin Qingxuan, he was looking forward to real artificial intelligence. However, the computing speed of artificial intelligence is bound to be very fast, and traditional computers cannot handle it.
"You know?" Han Zhengguo was a little surprised.
Looking at Han Zhengguo's skeptical eyes, Han Xiao said, "The early classic computers were binary. This means that they can only use "0" and "1" to record all the information states, and each step can only do 2 times - 2 times the operation. Quantum computers, on the other hand, describe information by quantum states, and they have a much faster way of computing. For example, a quantum computer with two quantum states (also known as two bits) can do two to the power of two in each stepβthat is, four operations. A 3-bit quantum computer can perform 2 to the 3rd power - 8 calculations of information at each step. β
Han Zhengguo nodded and said: "You are right, the EPR state that physicist Albert Einstein imagined with his smart brain in order to criticize quantum mechanics has been used in quantum computers since it was proven to exist. And in the quantum state, there is no need for the calculation process, the calculation time, the quantum can make space jumps, the traditional computer can not be compared with it at all, now it is considered the future of the computer, however, this is only the future, whether it is a quantum computer, or the so-called quantum chip, it is not a short period of success, it may be ten years, it may be fifty years, you are the majority shareholder of TX, but it does not mean that you can make a decision. β
"Tomorrow, I'll talk to Uncle Ma." Han Xiao said.
"What if he doesn't say yes?" Han Jung-kook asked.
Han Xiao was silent, to be honest, he hadn't thought about it.
Han Zhengguo and Xue Yuehua didn't bother, and quietly watched Han Xiao think.
Three minutes later, Han Xiao raised his head and said, "I won't force him, I will explain the pros and cons, but if he still doesn't agree, then he can only be the president of TX."
Han Zhengguo was noncommittal and did not express any more opinions, but Han Xiao's ambition made him extremely proud in his heart, seventeen-year-old Han Xiao was still full of enthusiasm and faith, and the success of TX did not stop him.
Time flowed like water, never stopping, and the night passed quickly, the next day, at nine o'clock in the morning.
Han Xiao came to the TX Building early, he did not enter his office, but walked directly into the president's office.
"Eh, Xiao Xiao, come so early today?" Ma Zheng asked curiously.
"Uncle Ma, I'm just here to make soy sauce." Han Xiao pulled out a chair, sat at Ma Zheng's desk, and said with a smile.
"It's the first time you've come into my office since we moved here, so you're going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, right?" Ma Zheng responded with a smile.
Han Xiao nodded with a smile, and was about to speak, but saw Ma Zheng stop him.
"I guess if it's the CIO Mr. Lin's business?" Ma Zheng asked with a smile.
"Uncle Ma guessed it." Han Xiao praised.
"You've decided?" Ma Zheng asked.
"Hmm." Han Xiao continued to nod.
"Then I don't have a problem with that." Ma Zheng said.
"Why?" Han Xiao asked curiously.
Ma Zheng replied sincerely: "First, I have always believed in your vision, without you, there would be no TX today." Second, the philosophy that you instilled in TX is also the goal of TX, TX wants to be a great company, but the current TX is far from great, and the quantum computer is definitely a great project. β
"Then why don't you agree?" Han Xiao asked puzzled.
Ma Zheng said with a smile: "Because I don't believe in Mr. Lin, it's not that I don't believe in her ability, but it may take a long time for this project to succeed." I am the president of TX, and such a project cannot be passed under my power, and I cannot convince other shareholders. β
Han Xiao understood, although Ma Zheng is the president, he is not the largest shareholder, nor is he the chairman, Lin Qingxuan's seemingly worthless project plan can't convince the shareholders who jointly hold five percent of the TX shares, but Han Xiao is different, Han Xiao can completely make a decision.
After preparing the words for a long time, he didn't say a word, and Han Xiao could only hold back.
"Okay, Uncle Ma, let's go to the conference room together." Han Xiao stood up and invited.
"Okay." Ma Zheng also put down the documents and stood up.
The secretary opened the door, and the two walked out of the office together, Han Xiao also saw the new assistant for the first time, a beauty in her twenties, but her appearance was much worse than Gu Yue who was standing aside, but she was also very attractive.
"Han Dong." Gu Yue and the assistant greeted each other.
Han Xiao glanced at the work card hanging in front of the assistant, and his name was written, Zhao Tong. Nodding slightly, he said, "Assistant Zhao, notify CIO Mr. Lin of a meeting in the conference room on the 48th floor."
"Okay." Zhao Tong agreed and left quickly.
"Let's go, Gu Yue, you too." Han Xiao said, walking towards the elevator.
Gu Yue was stunned for a moment, a little puzzled, so she had to keep up.
Han Xiao and the three of them were in the conference room, and as soon as they sat down, Lin Qingxuan opened the door of the conference room.
"Han Dong, Mr. Ma." Lin Qingxuan still said hello with a straight face.
Han Xiao and Ma Zheng nodded one after another, and Han Xiao began: "Mr. Lin, introduce your project."
Lin Qingxuan agreed, began to connect the projection, and said: "A quantum computer is a kind of physical device that follows the laws of quantum mechanics to perform high-speed mathematical and logical operations, store and process quantum information, and in short, it is a supercomputer that surpasses the performance of the current computer countless times."
"Quantum theory has been around since the middle of the last century, and after so many years of development, even if we don't study it, soon, a quantum computer will emerge in a few years."
"QQ is TX's fist product, but also a world-class Internet social software, our daily active users have become the world's most, but with so many users, the value brought to us is not high, and the conversion rate can be said to be very low."
"And with quantum computers, user behavior analysis, we can reach the most accurate point, even the weather forecast we can predict more accurately, of course, these are the simplest, greater value has yet to be discovered."
"The most important thing is that the powerful performance of quantum computers can greatly accelerate the development of artificial intelligence, and TX's huge data information can also supplement nutrients for artificial intelligence, which is the future ...... of the intelligent era."
Han Xiao and Ma Zheng glanced at each other and smiled secretly, it seems that Lin Qingxuan has put a lot of effort into it.
"Now there is not even the most basic artificial intelligence, even if you make a quantum computer, will it be a bit overkill? Moreover, you said that quantum computers will appear in a few years, can't we just buy them? Han Xiao said.
"The best things are always for your own use." Lin Qingxuan retorted.
Han Xiao nodded when he heard this, this is right, the most advanced things are always in the laboratory, and it is impossible for others to sell them.
"Okay, you can give the plan to Mr. Ma when the time comes." Han Xiao said.
Lin Qingxuan looked at Ma Zheng with suspicious eyes, her face full of distrust.
Ma Zheng sighed, Lin Qingxuan, who is in her twenties, is similar to his daughter, but she is his colleague, and her values are very different.
"Mr. Lin rest assured, one billion is ready, but where the money is used, everything must be written."
Lin Qingxuan nodded and agreed.
After Lin Qingxuan's matter was dealt with, the next thing was Gu Yue's matter, Han Xiao turned his head and asked Gu Yue on the side: "Okay, the second thing, Secretary Gu, how is the payment tool?"
"I have discussed with Mr. Lin, and the personnel are already in place and are being developed." Gu Yue replied.
"How much longer?" Han Xiao asked, this was said to Lin Qingxuan.
"Half a month." Lin Qingxuan said.
"I want the safest and most convenient payment tool, are you sure?" Han Xiao said very seriously.
Lin Qingxuan was stunned, and then she felt that Han Xiao attached great importance to this payment tool, which was a little inexplicable, but Ma Zheng on the side was thinking about Han Xiao's purpose.
"I'm sure, I'll design it myself." Lin Qingxuan almost patted her chest and assured that just now Han Xiao gave her a billion research funds, if this happened, she couldn't handle it, she didn't have the face to stay in TX anymore.
"Okay, Secretary Gu is in charge of the propaganda." Han Xiao set the tone.
"Han Dong, if a user recharges QQ and then pays with Alipay, can it be discounted?" Gu Yue asked.
When Han Xiao heard this, he couldn't help but be impressed by Gu Yue, and he suddenly thought of the idea, collect the current paying users of QQ, and now he can have tens of millions of users.
"Yes, 95% off." Han Xiao was not stingy, and tens of millions of profits were smashed.
Ma Zheng immediately retorted: "Han Dong, will the ninety-five discount be too high?" Now there are more than 300 million QQ users, and the monthly paying users are more than 1000W, which is 95% off, and we have to lose millions a month. β
Han Xiao waved his hand and said: "Millions will be used as publicity fees, as long as we do it safely and conveniently, users will abandon cumbersome online banking payments in the future and choose Alipay, this money is completely worth it."
"But, Han Dong, I don't understand." Ma Zheng wondered.
"Alipay can be recharged, if 1000W users, everyone saves ten yuan in it, relying on interest, then millions can come back quickly, right?" Han Xiao replied.
"Han Dong, I don't believe it, this is your ultimate goal, but you convinced me." Ma Zheng didn't ask, but said.
Gu Yue also looked at Han Xiao with curious eyes, but Lin Qingxuan seemed to have nothing to do with herself, looking at the ceiling a little bored.
