Chapter 975: Quantum Computer
My answer is...... What's the matter with you ordinary people? β
Yang Yun's answer made everyone stunned at first, and then laughed, and even the person in charge of Intel on the stage couldn't stop laughing, making Yang Yun's strange answer cry and laugh.
This answer is good, what does it matter to ordinary people?
In the computer hardware industry, because of the strong entry of Longteng chips, the original Intel AMD two-way world pattern has been broken, now the three-legged stand, the competition is more intense, the progress of semiconductor technology in the past ten years has actually exceeded Moore's law, in this industry, if not progress, it will be eliminated, not Moore's law forces manufacturers to continue to improve themselves, but manufacturers in competition with each other, continue to break records, several jΓΉ prove Moore's law!
The hardships of computer hardware research and development are only known to those who have done it, and many IT hardware industry practitioners in the audience secretly smiled bitterly.
Ten years ago, the scientific research content of FAB was very simple, and the integrated circuit diagram could be carved out relatively easily, no matter what it was required to look like.
But now Yan zhΓ²ng is limited by hardware, integrated circuit design is becoming more and more troublesome, and even the direction of scientific research has begun to focus on chemistry and materials, various current leakage, and high-frequency interference are becoming more and more strict.
Yang Yun is not saying this out of nothing, he is very clear that the upgrade of CPU from 90 nm to 65 nm adopts the new technology of strain silicon, and before he was reborn, when he learned the principle of computer composition, he also understood the 45 nm high-K metal gate. 22nm-class triple-gate transistor technology, and more.
Pure silicon purification alone can never satisfy the growing appetite of human beings, in order to find more thermal conductivity. An alternative material that is more convenient for chip growth and characterization, germanium materials. III-V compounds such as arsenic gallium have entered the attention of scientists, and a CPU chip is not good, so make 3D IC technology stacked, if the structure is not good, then find a new structure such as line point spin.
In any case, Yang Yun believes that Moore's Law will be used for at least ten years, and it may be a bit unimaginable to double every two years, but the performance improvement of computers definitely does not simply refer to the number of CPU wafers.
"It's just a joke. But big hopefuls should understand that speed in Moore's Law does not specifically refer to clock frequency, the speed of CPU computing can come to an end within ten years, and the number of integrated transistors can continue to increase, but this only means that the CPU can only do more things at the same time, not faster things, which everyone should understand. There is only one way to increase the speed of operation, and that is quantum computer technology! β
When the word quantum computer came out of Yang Yun's mouth. Some people are excited, some people are sad, excited that maybe Longteng can design a quantum computer in everyone's lifetime, and sad people think that this is an ethereal fantasy. It will not be possible in at least a hundred years, because it still needs to solve quantum computing, superconductivity at room temperature. Core high-end technologies such as biology and optical computing are still in a state of theoretical research and exploration.
"At least Longteng Entertainment & Games hopes to develop a quantum computer as soon as possible. I have a whole bunch of great game solutions in my head right now, like virtual reality games. Human brainwave games, and only a quantum computer can meet my needs! β
Yang Yun said a little excited, his ultimate goal is of course a virtual helmet or even a virtual nutrition pod and other quantum computer games, which the whole world has not been able to achieve before he is reborn.
He hopes that Long Teng can develop a real quantum computer game in his second life, in his limited life, at least in 2050, before he is 80 years old, and he will die without regrets!
The audience was very quiet, and Yang Yun's answer drew a huge pie for them, which must be a wonderful world.
The moderator jumped out of his deep thoughts in time, and he thought that the topic had been pulled away and that he had to be guided back.
He looked at the thoughtful person in charge of Intel, and then at Yang Yun with a yearning look, coughed twice, and asked the second question: "May I ask Mr. Gates, will Microsoft still increase investment in the research and development of video game consoles in the future?" β
That's a hot question! To say that this should be a trade secret, it depends on whether Bill Gates is willing to answer publicly to the audience.
Everyone in the audience cheered up, tried their best to return to reality from the fantasy of quantum computer technology just now, and looked at Bill Gates's watch on the stage.
But strange, isn't it? Bill Gates's face didn't turn gloomy, but an indifferent attitude, what's going on?
"This is it! YES, my question was accepted! A reporter whispered his fist to his peers around him to show off, they are IT financial reporters, they have been following Yang Yun and Bill Gates since Paris, and they have wanted to ask this question for a long time.
"Aha! This time the truth will be revealed! Another reporter was a little excited.
"I don't want Microsoft to make any more stupid moves, otherwise I'm afraid it will really cause some riots......," a female reporter thought, she still doesn't want millions of Microsoft users to return goods en masse in case of Microsoft's collapse, which will really cause social unrest.
I saw Bill Gates glance at the audience, then looked at Yang Yun with his spare eyes, and said with a smile: "Xbox360 is an excellent TV game console, and it is certainly worth continuing to invest in research and development." β
Oh......
Many people finally put their minds at ease, it seems that Microsoft has not given up on this disaster-ridden console, those who are uneasy, worried about buying back a scrap metal without after-sales warranty, and are hesitating to return the Xbox360 players, should be able to hold off.
"No, there's still a problem!" Only a handful of conspiracy theorists have keenly grasped the loophole in Bill Gates's words, and he did not mention the subject objects of "Microsoft" and "I", which may mean that the subject of R&D may not be Microsoft itself, but may be like Sony in the past!
But unfortunately, the moderator has changed to the next question, and these conspiracy theorists can only hurriedly ask more detailed new questions on the smartphones issued by the organizers, hoping to dig deeper, but it is clear that the possibility that these issues involving trade secrets will be selected is certainly not too great.
On Christmas Day 2007, Yang Yun was invited by Bill Gates to Hamburg to participate in the IT Forum, and then went to the Gold Coast of France to spend a perfect Christmas holiday with Bill Gates and others.
This vacation is secret, private, and small-scale, and there is only one person in the headquarters Yang Yun on the Longteng side, plus the core team of Nanase Okawa, the president of the branch from Japan.
In addition, Hayao Nakayama from NewSonic worked tirelessly, at the age of 76, he was willing to take a ten-hour flight to Nice, plus the leader Bill Gates, the president of the Bank of France, Murfic, and the Blackstone Group's Cao Carrey, and most of the people who gathered in private gatherings were relatively close investment banking friends.
The heads of three companies in the video game industry gathered together, and no one knew what they were talking about, because in Nice and Cannes, most people are focusing on movie stars, entertaining public figures, and there are some of the richest people in France, even the paparazzi can't even care about it, not to mention that Bill Gates's chosen vacation destination is the private beach villa of the Swiss crown prince, which is first-class in secrecy.
In the past few days, Yang Yun is the happiest, he has not participated in even a minute of business talks, during the day he wears sunglasses, beach pants, shirtless and plays on the picturesque Cote d'Azur, he is followed by a short eight or nine-year-old girl, that stubborn and sticky expression, so that Yang Yun is really loved in every way, and the two are almost inseparable.
The two of them had fun on the beach together, chasing, building sand castles, swimming, surfing, gliding, diving, and the little girl was so tired that she could fall asleep in Yang Yun's arms every day.
Or two people dressed in ordinary clothes, like ordinary tourists, take a sightseeing train through the streets of the city, admiring all kinds of Provencal style buildings, restaurants, museums, art galleries, modern opera houses, Roman ruins, one big and one small holding hands, laughing, carefree.
Every night, when Okawa Nanase saw the little girl who was sleeping soundly with saliva on Yang Yun's back, he had a helpless expression on his face, looking at Yang Yun's expression full of tenderness.
Coming back like this today, Yang Yun also had a tired look on his face, and Okawa Nanase hurriedly helped: "Yang, Iko is asleep again?" β
Yang Yun carefully put her daughter on the bed, looking at her scattered bangs, long eyelashes with closed eyes, and red fluttering cheeks, and delicate appearance like a porcelain doll, she couldn't help but reach out for her to pull her bangs together, and kissed her forehead again.
"I was tired after a day of playing, and I fell asleep as soon as I got in the car." Yang Yun stood up and hugged Nanase Okawa with a smile, "Besides, if you don't fall asleep, where is the time for you and me to make out alone?" β
"Hmm...... Wait a minute...... Be intimate, there is progress in the talks today. Nanase Okawa looked shy and a little confused, but he tried to control his mentality and wanted to focus on his work.
Seeing her like this, Yang Yun was still very relieved, and the two moved to the guest room and began to discuss the results of the negotiations between Okawa Nanase and others during the day.
Yang Yun listened for a while, frowned and said, "Cao Kairui is really getting more and more disagreeable, he dares to open such a big mouth, isn't he afraid that he won't be able to eat and die?" β
Okawa Nanase pursed his lips and smiled, and handed over a small envelope with a sealed mouth: "Mr. Cao left you a letter, it is a message." (To be continued......)
