Chapter 82: Simon and Simba (4/4)
In Simon's apartment, as the conversation progressed, Gu Xiaoxiao introduced some of Simon's personal information from time to time.
The conversation has always been in the rhythm of work~life~work~life, such fluctuations.
The atmosphere is very good, Simon is a very knowledgeable university professor, to Chen Mengchuan's surprise, he is still a Huaxia Tong, India Tong and Island Country Tong.
Every year, Simon will travel for more than a month, he likes China, India and island countries, is familiar with many cultures of the three countries, and also speaks a lot of Chinese, Indian native languages and island Chinese.
He taught at Stanford for fifteen years, and his students were all over the world, and he was a staunch atheist with a deep reverence for all religions. He is a vegan but does not discourage others from being vegan. He is a high-income earner, but he lives a minimalist life.
After learning that Simon had donated more than 95% of his life's income to charitable educational institutions, set up several education funds, and aided China, India, and many other small African countries, everyone was in awe.
Chen Mengchuan really didn't expect Gu Xiaoxiao's teacher Simon to be such a noble person.
However, within a few minutes of their awe, Simon told them that he was not married, nor was he in love, and that he would go to Lady J every week, and that he was a man of normal physiology.
Simon expressed a lot of praise for Chen Mengchuan's supercomputer plan, and now the world's supercomputers are still too slow in his opinion, and there is no high-end supercomputing in the real sense, and the few optical quantum computers in the world at present, before the new technology reaches the quantitative breakthrough, can not escape these, even supercomputers are not as good, just gimmicks. Unless it can reach 49 optical quantum entanglement, or even 733 optical quantum entanglement, it will be perfected to the multi-party application of the entire quantum computer at the same time, and mass production at a low price, but that will be at least a few decades later.
Chen Mengchuan, who has knowledge of the trend of earth science and technology in the next 20 years, understands that whether it is 49 optical quantum entanglement or 733 optical quantum entanglement, it was finally realized after the emergence of Chuan Zhizi...... That is 17 years from now, when humans will truly realize quantum computers and apply them to all walks of life.
As we talked, many topics began to broaden our minds, from quantum optics "boson sampling" to wave-particle duality to beam-splitting, to multiphoton indistinguishability and photon interference. Then to the core law of wave function collapse and the qubits of superconducting circuits, and finally even talked about some core technical principles of superconducting quantum processors of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Simon did not hesitate to praise these scientists at the Xia Academy of Sciences, believing that they are on the most correct path of quantum computers.
In these conversations, Chen Mengchuan is mostly in a state of listening, and many of these conjectures and theories will be realized one by one in the future trend of science and technology, and many of them, Chen Mengchuan has even experienced it himself, and most of the most difficult core points are the accurate calculation and analysis of Chuan Zhizi.
By noon, Simon and his group had gone to a lawn at Stanford University, where there were many small shops selling barbecue food, and it was delicious. After buying some food, the group continued to talk casually on the lawn. During this time, Simon called one of his students and asked him to come along.
Soon, a dark-skinned, skinny college student-looking boy appeared in front of Chen Mengchuan.
Simon happily introduced him to the crowd.
Amitab Simba, an Indian, looks like he is only 16 or 17 years old, but he is actually 22 years old.
After talking and introducing, Chen Mengchuan learned that this Lion King Simba is Gu Xiaoxiao's junior brother, who was met by Simon when he was inspecting aid projects in India, and then he was admitted to Stanford University at the age of 15, got two undergraduate degrees in computer science and physics from Stanford University at the age of 18, and obtained a doctorate degree at the age of 21.
"Simba, in the future, you will follow this Mr. Chen Mengchuan, he is the person who can really change the world in this century." Simon said to the Indian teenager very seriously.
Simba nodded, and looked at the ordinarily dressed Chinese man in front of him with a pair of huge and pure eyes.
In the evening, Simon arranged for his four students who had already graduated to follow Chen Mengchuan and his party, all of whom were highly skilled in negotiation and had a very in-depth understanding of IBM and Intel.
In the evening, after returning to Toni's house, everyone began to exchange a lot of topics around Simon.
And the content communicated and fed back by this 22-year-old Indian genius boy shocked them all! They couldn't help but think of Simon's statement that Simba only slept for four and a half hours a day, and spent almost all of the rest of the time studying and thinking. Whether it's eating, drinking, going to the toilet, or taking a bath, he hardly stops to think, and in the true sense, he is a genius who can use two minds.
Gu Xiaoxiao, who was extremely interested in Simba, handed him two blank pieces of paper and two pens out of his sister's love for his junior brother.
"Sister Xiaoxiao, what do you want me to do?" Simba asked.
"Draw a circle with your left hand and a five-pointed star with your right hand, try it, and it's best to finish it at the same time." Gu Xiaoxiao said excitedly.
Several people were also interested and gathered around.
Lin Xinze, who shook his head, said affirmatively: "This is impossible, no human being can do this." ”
Toni pushed his glasses, "I'll bet $100." ”
"Bet!" Lin Xinze shook his head, feeling that he was sure to win.
"So, is Lin Xinze opening? I'm also betting $100, and I think Simba can draw it. Gu Xiaoxiao said confidently.
Chen Mengchuan also smiled: "Then I will also bet 100 US dollars." ”
"What about you? Qinghong. Lin Xinze looked at Yu Qinghong.
Yu Qinghong thought for a while and said, "I think it's difficult, I can't bet it." $100. ”
"Simba, draw a circle, a circle with your left hand, and a five-pointed star with your right hand. You have to draw it. Gu Xiaoxiao urged excitedly.
"I'll give it a try." Simba smiled shyly, then picked up a pen in one hand.
When Chen Mengchuan saw him grab the pen, his eyes lit up, the little thumb was at the bottom, the ring finger, the middle finger and the index finger buckled the pen body, and finally the thumb was pressed, and the left and right hands were almost symmetrical, and the two hands grasped it equally steadily. Looks like he's going to win.
Then the tip of the pen in Simba's hand fell on the white paper, one left and one right started at the same time, and after 3 seconds, a very complete circle, and a linear five-pointed star jumped on the paper!
"Win!" Gu Xiaoxiao shouted excitedly!
