Section 6 Cell Microchips
"Sister, is Duan Tianwolf really as terrifying as you say?"
After watching Long cross the sea and drive away at the door of the house, Ling Xue asked Ling Mengdie.
"Duan Tian Wolf may be terrifying, but he will never hurt the people around him." Ling Mengdie replied.
Hearing Ling Mengdie say this, Ling Xue's face looked a little better, and then she said, "Then you are so terrible to say to Second Brother Long, it's like a wolf will become a devil." ”
"I said that on purpose." Ling Mengdie said, slowly shaking her head, "But I didn't expect that Guohai would be so resolute, it seems that I still underestimated this Duan Heavenly Wolf." ”
"Sister, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand? ”
"Mu Xiu is in the forest, the wind will urge it, Duan Tianwolf's edges and corners are too obvious, and the light is too bright, although I can't judge his future. But I dare say that his life will not be smooth. He is like an ironclad ship in the angry sea, his resistance to blows is very strong, and no matter how big the wind and waves are, he may be able to withstand it. But the passengers on this ship may not be so lucky. Speaking of this, Ling Mengdie sighed, "And Guo Hai is a person who has a lot of gambling surnames, once he is with Duan Tian Wolf, he is likely to gamble everything." In the end, you may lose nothing. That's why I said that because I knew that, but I didn't expect it to work at all. ”
"Although this Duan Heavenly Wolf is a little rampant, he is not like the kind of person who will take the initiative to cause trouble, he should ...... It shouldn't be a big problem, right? Sister? Ling Xue asked uncertainly.
Hearing Ling Xue say this, Ling Mengdie smiled and walked towards home.
"Duan Tianluo is the same as you who applied for the Blue Ocean University of Commerce, right?" After taking a few steps, Ling Mengdie asked again.
"Hmm." Ling Xue nodded, "What's wrong?" ”
"Nothing." Ling Mengdie smiled and shook her head.
The two sisters walked in silence, and when they reached the door, Ling Mengdie suddenly turned her head and asked, "Xiaoxue, what is the relationship between you and this Duan Heavenly Wolf?" ”
"Of course, it's just an ordinary friendship." Ling Xue replied immediately.
"Really?" Ling Mengdie asked again.
"Of course, what am I lying to you about? I don't mean anything about this megalomaniac. ”
"What about him? How does he feel? ”
"He's the same with me, he doesn't call at all, he has someone he likes, it's a girl named Soho." Ling Xue said and asked strangely, "Sister, why did you suddenly become so gossipy." ”
"Ah, it's nothing, I just saw that you were so attentive to him, so I just asked." Ling Mengdie said, turning around and walking into her room.
As soon as she entered the room and sat down at the desk, Ling Mengdie said to herself, "What a pity. ”
After Long Guohai returned home, Chen Xiuyuan had already fallen asleep, and Duan Tianluo had just finished meditating.
Long Guohai took a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet and said to Duan Tianwolf: "In the bar just now, there were two women there, and they couldn't drink much, now let's drink some more?" ”
"Okay." Duan Tianluo smiled, "But aren't you drinking liquor?" How to switch to drinking red wine. ”
Long Guohai shook his head and said, "I've been socializing too much lately, and I'm drinking spirits, and drinking it a little bit hurts my body if I drink it again." So with your brother, just drink some red wine, if you don't feel like it's enjoyable, I'll go get Moutai. ”
"Not really, I'm not an alcoholic."
Long Guohai smiled, took the corkscrew, opened the red wine, poured a glass each, and then said to Duan Tianluo: "You seem to be in a much better mood now, that shadow should have been forgotten, right?" ”
"I didn't forget it, I just didn't think about it in my heart." Duan Tianluo picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and said.
"Hmm." Long Guohai nodded, "This is a man...... What are your thoughts now? Do you want to do something about it? ”
"I'm here to discuss this with you." Duan Tianwolf said to Long Guohai.
"Looks like you have an idea, let's take a look."
"I wanted to do some research recently, and it's a huge study, and it costs a lot of money and it needs a lot of people."
"Okay, don't bend around like a press spokesman, just say what you want to do. What can I do for you? ”
"I want to create a near-perfect AI, and I want you to help me prepare the hardware for this plan without attracting attention. To be precise, it is the development of one thing, that is, cell microchips. ”
"Cell microchips?" Long Guohai blinked wildly in confusion, "What is it?" ”
"We have about 100 billion cells in our brains." Duan Tianwolf pointed to his brain, "Each of these 100 billion cells is connected to up to 100,000 cells through synapses. The transmission of cell signaling is constantly regulated by hormones and neurotransmitters, and is constantly forming and dissolving, weakening, or intensifying in response to new experiences. ”
"If we assume that each synapse can process one pulse per second, then the computing power of a normal human brain is equivalent to at least a qualum of operations per second. You hear me clearly, I'm not wrong, not 100 billion times, not a trillion times, but a trillion times. This computing speed is almost 1,000 times faster than that of today's most advanced supercomputers. ”
"What does that mean?" Duan Tianwolf pointed to his brain again, "This means that our mind is the best computer in the world. So, if we can study the principle of the cell, and combine this principle with the current nanotechnology, and use it in chips, we will create cell chips. It will be a thousand times better than the best chips in the world right now, and there will never be a problem with overheating. ”
Hearing this, Long Guohai began to understand a little, "If you can really create such a chip, it will really be a windfall." But...... I'm afraid this kind of thing isn't that easy to study, right? ”
"If you start from scratch, you won't have that much research. But......" Duan Tianluo shook his head, "we can't start from scratch. There are a lot of scientists around the world doing this kind of research now, and we just need to borrow their research results for reference. However, even so, you still need to have a sufficient team and equipment, and you must also have a relatively good level of engineers, otherwise, you still can't make it. ”
"Well, that's good." Long Guohai nodded, and then asked, "However, who should I match?" ”
"The whole project is divided into four parts, the first part is the selection of modeling objects by experts in the biological field, that is, the selection of cell types, virtual functions and cell responses to internal and external environmental stimuli. The second part is to establish the relevant database, the carrier of cell function is protein, gene and protein are the basic elements to achieve cell function, and are the basic unit to realize virtual cells. Therefore, to construct any type of virtual cell, it is necessary to take protein as the core and construct relevant databases......"
"Okay, okay, let's just say the third and fourth, I'm illiterate, you don't have to tell me too much, I'll be inferior."
"The third part, which is also the most complex and critical part of the whole plan, is design and modeling. That is, according to the virtual object - specific cells and functions, according to the relevant database and system analysis, through mathematical calculations, the biological reaction process is digitally simulated. Then apply the theories and techniques of information science, write programs, and build models of virtual cells. ”
"As for the fourth part, it is the test, the process will be very cumbersome, I tell you now, you will only get more dizzy, you should leave these troubles to your chief engineer."
"Chief Engineer?" Long Guohai blinked, "Does this chief engineer have any requirements?" ”
"The most important requirement is absolute reliability, followed by talent, preferably a computer expert who is proficient in hardware. Because our plan needs to be kept absolutely secret, although it will not be the end of the world if it is leaked, it will cause us great harm. ”
"Reliable, but reliable, computer experts?" Long Guohai sighed for a moment, knocked on the door of his head and began to think about it, and after thinking for a long time, he slapped his thigh, "I remember, there is a person who should be able to." ”
"Who?" Duan Tianwolf hurriedly asked.
"This person's name is Chen Ye, he is Chinese New Year's Eve two years old today, and he is my best friend when I was in the United States. He was originally a graduate of Jilin University majoring in computer science and technology, and later studied at Purdue University in the United States, where he continued his studies at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and received a Ph.D. in electrical engineering. He has now successfully secured a tenured professorship at MIT. Three days later, he will be in Shanghai to accept the honorary professor status awarded to him by Fuqing University. If you find it convenient, I can let you meet with you, and if you think it's okay, I'll find a way to keep him. ”
"Is this guy really reliable?" After listening to Long Guohai's introduction, Duan Tianwolf asked with a little hesitation.
"How so?" Long Guohai thought for a moment, and then said, "When it comes to complete trust, I only fully trust two people in my life, one is you and the other is Chen Ye. For you, it is because of complete trust in your ability, and for Chen Ye, it is because of absolute trust in his personality. ”
After hearing this, Duan Tianwolf didn't say anything anymore, and immediately said, "Then arrange for us to meet as soon as possible." ”
