"I protest!"

"You're interfering with academic freedom!"

"Don't bring the dirty stuff of politics to our academia!"

In a suite in a luxury hotel, Turing Award winner and contemporary grandmaster of the field of processor architecture, David Brown. Mr. Patterson, shouting at two men in black suits.

Mr. David is a pivotal scholar in the field of computer science in the world, and it is obviously not appropriate to rashly take such a person to the CIA's office, so as in many spy movies, Mr. David was taken to a luxury hotel in the center of the city, and was very cared for.

There has never been an impermeable wall in the world, and Mr. David's plan to join forces with Xingchen Technology to develop RISC-V architecture processors has been exposed to the eyes of the West, so there will be such a scene today.

"I used to think that as a scholar engaged in CPU infrastructure research, and with a considerable social status, I should no longer be constrained and be able to do research that interests me according to my inner thoughts."

Mr. David muttered, he looked up, looked at the middle-aged man in a black suit opposite the coffee table, and said with a wry smile: "It's a pity that I was still wrong, you guys, you guys, actually stretched out your black hand to the academic world!" If the RISC-V architecture CPU is completed, regardless of the running speed, peak bandwidth, and logic processing unit, it will be far behind the X86 architecture, and it will be the strongest general-purpose processor on the earth! ”

"The old x86 architecture has been dominating the desktop and server space for decades! Back then, it did represent the highest level of technology in the world, but the times are advancing, the course of history has come to this day, the potential of the X86 architecture is gradually exhausted, if you don't iterate as soon as possible and launch a new architecture for the next era, X86 will hinder the progress of the entire human race! ”

Mr. David said indignantly, and at the same time picked up the hotel's ink pen and sticky notes, and quickly scribbled on them, drawing a computing unit of Xingchen Technology's holographic image system.

The computing unit is in a huge cabinet, with 512 of NVIDIA's top graphics cards, 512 of the fastest Intel Xeon CPUs, 512 sets of star decoders, logic algorithm chips, overlay graphics accelerators, and so on.

"Have you seen Xingchen Technology's holographic projection system?" Mr. David said with a little envy: "I have seen it in Paris, it is a dreamlike world, the stars and the sea, the magnificent space, everything is right in front of me, and those are the dreams of my life." ”

"If this holographic system is put into large-scale use, it will completely change the human audio-visual audio-visual, and even change the way human cognition, but the computing bottleneck of X86 has hindered the popularization of holographic projection, and the cost is too high, Xingchen Technology has to manufacture industrial-grade image processing units to drive the whole system."

Anyone who has played the game knows that if you want to run a 3A masterpiece, you have to spend money to buy a graphics card, because graphics are a lot of computing power, and both graphics cards and CPUs need to have strong computing power, and if necessary, you can also multi-line parallel, overload acceleration, etc.

Holographic projection requires more than 1,000 times more computing power than 3A masterpieces, and in order to complete image processing, Xingchen Technology had to set up an expensive graphics array.

Due to the high cost of the graphic array, so far, holographic projection technology has only been used in the flagship stores of the three major automobile factories around the world for image display.

Mr. David said impassionedly, believing that the computing power of the X86 architecture has entered a bottleneck, which hinders Xingchen Technology from launching a black technology that changes the world.

This is not all right, Xingchen Technology is not short of money, even if the cost of the graphics array is hundreds of millions, Luo Jia is completely built, the reason why it is not popularized on a large scale is because Luo Jia is a chicken thief, and wants to let the three major automobile factories in China monopolize the holographic projection technology, which has aroused the attention of public opinion and is ruthlessly coquettish.

After all, the auto industry is the largest industry in the world, with an annual output value of more than 10 trillion US dollars, and these are necessary means to help partners sell more cars and help them defeat the unprecedented power of Toyota and Volkswagen.

In general, Mr. David is an idealist, and he and Luo Jia are like-minded, Luo Jia shows off artificial intelligence technology, the second generation of little stars, shows holographic projections, and shows off near-perfect autonomous driving systems, and these systems all require massive computing power.

As a result, Mr. David and Luo Jia hit it off, ready to engage in a more advanced RISC-V architecture, by the way, to benefit all mankind, and lead the earth into a new era of next-generation supercomputing, etc.

The C.I.A. official, apparently disgusted by Mr. David's intellectual face, unbuttoned his white shirt and waved his hand at Mr. David, signaling him to shut up.

"Show him." The officer commanded.

Subsequently, a CIA agent came with a ThinkPad brand laptop, Mr. David was slightly stunned, he remembered that this should be a Huaxia brand, CIA as a national weapon, it seems inappropriate to use a notebook made in Huaxia.

But Mr. David's mind changed and he quickly figured it out, worthy of the conscience of the American imperialists, and even the CIA didn't treat a certain thought as an outsider.

Suppress and beware of Hua Wei, because Hua Wei has technology, which makes North America fearful, and if someone wants to have a fart technology, all they have is a loyal heart and a global headquarters in North America.

As the ThinkPad laptop began to play the video, Mr. David's expression quickly froze, from anger to shock, and from shock to frustration, and by the end of the video, he was as dead as a gargoyle.

Syllable~

The official gently closed the laptop and coughed deliberately, "Don't worry, you better think about it again." ”

"Don't think about it anymore." Mr. David quickly replied, he lowered his head, his eyes were no longer as sharp as before, "I really didn't expect that the dignified CIA would use my daughter as a threat..."

"Tomorrow, tomorrow I will terminate the cooperation with Xingchen Technology, so that you should be satisfied."

The voice was less inaudible than angry, more like resignation.

Human beings are born imperfect, everyone has weaknesses, and Mr. David's weakness is his only daughter, the single mother who was abandoned by a scumbag and raised her seven-year-old son alone.

Although the divorce rate in North America has long exceeded 50%, and single mothers are common, Mr. David still has a deep self-blame, if it weren't for his inertia with work and neglect of education, his daughter might not have been seduced by that scumbag.

The video that the CIA showed Mr. David was simple, his daughter was shopping at the supermarket with her kids, and they bought a box of frozen Alaskan white shrimp, a can of maple syrup, a ten-pound bag of dog food for the family golden retriever, a large bag of toilet paper with a 50% discount...

The camera clearly follows David's daughter's family, if this is not a threat, I'm afraid even a fool won't believe it.

The official looked at Mr. David with satisfaction, and then shook his head lightly and said, "No, you don't need to terminate the cooperation with Xingchen Technology. ”

Mr. David was stunned for a moment, showing a confused expression, "Didn't you lock me up here just to prevent Xingchen Technology from developing your own CPU architecture and instruction set!?" ”

The official smiled, "If you just stop it, it's too cheap for those Huaxia people, this is a war without gunpowder, our goal is to completely eliminate those damn Huaxia people from spirit to body!" ”

"Not only can you not quit, but you also have to spare no effort to help them complete the architecture design, the CIA's computer experts will assist you in the background, you want to turn the independent CPU of Xingchen Technology into a time bomb!"

"Then, I'm going to humiliate them!"

"They need to spend astronomical R&D funds, employ tens of thousands of semiconductor engineers, and in the end, just develop a piece of garbage that the world laughs at!"

Hahaha~

The official laughed happily, for Xingchen Technology, time is the most precious, painstaking research and development, but in the end only got a piece of garbage, the pride of the tough guy Tiantuan will cease to exist with the implementation of this sinister plan.

"You... You guys are so poisonous," said Mr. David, shocked and overwhelmed.
