It's already noon!

My parents started their own trip, and Zhong Zixing had nothing to do at home, so he simply took the car to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to register the company after eating.

Hangzhou Neutron Star Information Technology Company! The legal representative Zhong Zixing has a registered capital of 650 million!

He invested all the money he earned in the financial crisis, leaving only a little pocket money!

Such a large sum of money immediately alarmed the bureau boss, and when he learned that he had just graduated and started a business, the state's policy of supporting college students to start a business was immediately put down.

As for why it should be called an information technology company instead of a technology company directly, because the network cannot meet Zhong Zixing's ambitions, he will set up a technology group in the future, and information technology can only be regarded as a subsidiary!

After going through all the processes, Zhong Zixing rushed to the West Lake District non-stop and spent more than 4 million yuan to rent the 15th-16th floors of the Xizi Building, with a total of 4,000 square meters.

The 15th floor is going to be used to house the server, and the 16th floor is used for the office!

In September 08, the financial crisis officially swept the world, and exports and investment almost stagnated during this time, and personal or corporate consumption is the current mainstream.

Since then, real estate has been on the horse-drawn carriage, and the growth rate is amazing, and within a few days, the price of real estate in prosperous areas has begun to rise, and the rent price of office buildings has naturally begun to increase.

However, this is an inconsequential matter, renting an office building is only temporary, and with a huge cash flow in the future, Neutron Star Technology Group will buy a piece of land to build an industrial park.

After doing everything, Zhong Zixing, who spent a lot of money, ordered server chips, memory, and custom motherboards with a total value of two or three hundred million, and bought some office supplies.

The matter of Neutron Star Information Technology Co., Ltd. is almost handled, except that there are no employees!

Buying server chips, customizing motherboards and other things, Zhong Zixing naturally has his own plans.

He wanted to build a server and a supercomputer by himself!

It's not that you can't buy servers directly on the electronics street, whether it's IBM or Intel, they are the mainstream server suppliers on the market, but even the best servers on the market can't meet his expectations.

And DIY yourself, the performance is definitely much more powerful than the bought server, and Google, which first proposed the concept of cloud computing, is the self-organized server used.

Because of the way they assemble and arrange the CPU of the internal chips, whether the motherboard fits, and a series of architectural designs, which are related to whether the server can run perfectly.

It's the same with supercomputing!

It's not like you can stack the performance with a processor.

Supercomputing is a very technical thing!

As a simple example, Shenwei supercomputer must be known to everyone, right?

When Tianhe Supercomputer surpassed the supercomputer of the United States, the Ministry of Commerce of the United States banned Intel from continuing to sell high-performance processors to China in 2015, and China began to independently develop supercomputers.

The name of Shenwei supercomputer's processor is Shenwei 26010, although the performance is high, it is not as good as the strongest foreign processor, after all, this is a domestic shortcoming.

But with such a supercomputer, following the Tianhe-2 supercomputer, it still won several consecutive supercomputing championships, standing on the throne of the world's No. 1 for more than two years, until 2018, when it was surpassed by the "apex" of the Summit of the United States.

Some people say that the ranking of supercomputing is useless at all, because there are a lot of computing speeds that cannot be used, and Mi has a top-level processor, and it is easy to get the first place, but people don't want to take it?

How short-sighted is the person who says such a thing? Saying that he is a frog at the bottom of a well is simply the biggest insult to the mouse frog.

A supercomputer needs to use tens of thousands of processors, and each processor needs to work together with other processors to exchange data when processing information data, which takes time.

It's not that the more processors, the faster the supercomputing speed will be, he will have a saturation period, too many processors piled together will make the supercomputing encounter a bottleneck, not only will not increase the computing speed, but will drag down the whole!

Therefore, the system architecture that can allow tens of thousands of processors to be linked to each other is the strongest point of a supercomputer.

With this, in 2018, among the top 500 supercomputers, China accounted for 206 of them, reaching a rather terrifying number.

Zhong Zixing wanted to DIY a supercomputer by himself to process and calculate various projects of the company and carry the prototype of artificial intelligence, but due to the limited performance of the processor, he could only get a simple one first.

He has already understood this aspect of knowledge in his mind, there is no technical problem, and if he wants a better supercomputer, he can only wait for his company to create a chip in the future.

Two days later, the hundreds of millions of processors, motherboards, memories and other hardware ordered were all in place, and they were carried to the 15th floor of the Xizi Building one by one.

Neutron Star Information Technology Co., Ltd. has not even started its work with such a high profile, which naturally attracts the attention of all the companies in the entire building.

On the 14th floor of Xizi Building, it is a game company that has been established for more than a year, and the boss is a rich second generation, who chose to start a business because he saw the hot domestic game market a few years ago, but he didn't make a name for himself for a whole year.

I don't know how to command the game indiscriminately, and I don't know how to manage, so that a group of technicians with real talents and real learning have nowhere to play.

Now the game project is in a state of semi-abandonment, and more than a dozen employees have nothing to do and have come to the 15th floor to watch the excitement.

Time passed slowly, there was still no movement in Neutron Star Information Technology Co., Ltd., and as soon as the curiosity of this group of people passed, they turned their heads and left their upstairs neighbors behind.

...... on 30 September 2008

The building, which was originally full of parts, has changed greatly, and one by one servers have been assembled and neatly arranged in a spacious building, and these servers surround a huge supercomputer covering an area of about 200 square meters in the middle.

This supercomputer was named "Neutron Star No. 1" by him, and there are more than a dozen computer cabinets and storage cabinets on the side, and a network system cabinet in the middle.

Because of the limitations of the processor and motherboard, no matter how outstanding his technology is and how good the architecture is, it can't compare to the computing speed of Sunway Taihu Light, and it can only reach half of it.

The peak speed is 620 million petaflops/sec, and the continuous operation is 480 million petaflops/sec.

The computing speed is not comparable, but there is one thing that is stronger than Shenwei, and that is power consumption! It's less than a quarter of the light of Sunway Taihu, which is a remarkable achievement.

Zhong Zixing wiped his sweat, and the whole person collapsed on the ground, tired and unable to move!

Tired!

Eating, drinking, and lazing have been solved in the office building for so many days in a row, and finally the supercomputer and server have been built, if it weren't for the strong hands-on ability, the project would have to be delayed for a long time, but it was finally completed before the National Day.

Just yesterday, he contacted the headhunter with the intention of recruiting two executives to get the company officially on the right track!
