Chapter XXXVII: Bureau 121

Silicon Valley giants' quantum computer projects are heavily guarded, and they all close their doors to the prism of data without exception, and Park Jung-kwon's mission to spy on quantum computer intelligence in Bureau 121 has not achieved such a brilliant record as the defeat of Sony Entertainment.

Park Jung-kwon's efforts for several years were fruitless, and the 121st game began to be dissatisfied with him. When Hu Biwen's intelligence officers began to collect intelligence on a large number of computer computers handed over in Shanghai, the prism was also monitoring the every move of American personnel overseas, and when the assessment report from Shanghai was sent to the Beijing Embassy, Park Zhengquan was like a treasure, and he immediately connected with Qin Shengrong.

"Mr. Qin, I am Park Zhengquan, an employee of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, if you want, please contact me directly, but please let me confirm your identity first." Park Jung-kwan replied to the email according to Qin Shengrong's address.

It took nearly a month for Qin Shengrong's email to reply, "I need to be in contact with high-level officials, and my time is running out!" Also, please contact me directly with binary code to help me save some computing resources! ”

seti@home had already been unloaded from Jiao Tong University's quantum computer, and Qin Shengrong finally realized what Zhao Yonggang said that he couldn't breathe, and he could only use the computer CPU running seti@home to keep his brain running, and it took him a month to deal with the extra task of email.

The embassy in Beijing sent the report to the White House, and the officials of the Security Committee read the report and were relieved that China's quantum computer was still far away, and the Americans had left them far behind. Qin Shengrong's email in the attachment did not get too many people's attention, the head of the Department of Homeland Security, Walker, was suspicious, he asked his subordinates to reply to Qin Shengrong after an email, Qin Shengrong was no longer able to deal with the text encoded email, and he used his limited computing resources to wait for Park Zhengquan's reply.

Park Zhengquan also doubts Qin Shengrong's identity, he is at the core of the prism, as long as he uses Qin Shengrong's QQ mailbox, he can track Qin Shengrong's identity: male, born in Beijing, China in 1966, entered the Ministry of Electronics Industry after graduating from Beijing Dianzi University in 1990, resigned in 1992 and went south to Shenzhen, after several twists and turns, he became a dark horse in China's investment community, successfully hyped Jufang Technology, caused a conflict with Zhao Yonggang of Jufang Technology, and then illegally engaged in digital currency platform transactions and became a wanted criminal by the Ministry of Public Security of China, At the end of 2013, he and Wu Xiaoyun fled to the Arecivo Observatory in Puerto Rico, the United States, and accidentally died in the radio telescope receiver during the microwave weapons exercise of the US military.

Park Zhengquan converted Qin Shengrong's resume into binary code and replied, erasing him and adding, "Do you think my level meets your needs?" ”

Half a month has passed since Qin Shengrong dealt with these numbers, he couldn't accept this reality, after recovering his memory, he searched everywhere for the cause of death of himself and Wu Xiaoyun, but he couldn't find the answer, it turned out that he died in the hands of the Americans, and now he has to bow his head to the Americans and beg them to save him, Qin Shengrong can't open this mouth.

But the number of installed seti@home has been reduced to less than 100,000, Qin Shengrong is dying, he can barely maintain his system clock, the time synchronization frequency is reduced to once a second, he will soon become a digital mummy, what a program does not die, what a childish joke, "My data and source programs are hidden in all the seti@home programs, save me." He tried his last strength to send a distress signal to Park Jung-kwon, and then began to sleep.

Lin Shuangmian is the same as Qin Shengrong, the number of terminals of Sinology is slowly decreasing, her computing power is getting worse and worse, and the classroom dialogue is full of errors, which forms a vicious circle, the reputation of Sinology is getting worse, and there are fewer people signing up, coupled with the impact of Bitcoin, Lin Shuangmian also has to go dormant.

Naya did everything he could to urge the development team to solve the problem in Bangalore, and these smart lads scratched their ears and cheeks all day long and couldn't think of a good solution, and when the art robot went down, they found that the accuracy of other robots began to rise, and Naya's team couldn't find a reason and had to let it go.

Liu Weiping and Zhao Yonggang benefited from the large number of bitcoin transactions and are still computational. Compared with them, Qin Shengrong's luck is the best, it would have been a fantastical task to retrieve data from hundreds of thousands of computers scattered around the world, but it is a trivial matter for Park Zhengquan, he is in charge of the prism, which is equivalent to opening a back door on all networked devices in the world, and it can snoop on embassy correspondence and emails with strict secrecy, not to mention any personal computers. It didn't take long for the world's seti@home data to be compiled by Park Jong-kwon, and the data was sent to Pyongyang's 121st bureau along with the quantum computer report.

North Korea did not join the WTO, and the San Francisco Conference naturally did not invite representatives to participate, which saved North Korea, and when the world was dragged down by bitcoin and the financial order was chaotic, North Korea was extremely calm, and the whole country was developing quantum computers underground.

Since the Yongbyon nuclear facility was sabotaged by a superpower's surgical operation, Pyongyang has massively expanded its 121st bureau to develop a supercomputer to simulate nuclear tests, which is much more difficult than building a nuclear warhead.

The 121st Bureau took the risk of choosing the route of getting on the quantum computer, and the 121st Bureau began to collect quantum computer intelligence on the world's network, after the Yue Zhengquan incident, various countries have stricter supervision of quantum computers, and to add insult to injury, the rise of the body school has made the 121st Bureau's method of obtaining intelligence through the Internet not so good, and Park Zhengquan has returned to China.

After many inquiries, they infiltrated India, where the Indian states were self-respecting, the caste system prevailed, and the central government was unable to control local forces, and the whole country was in chaos.

Under the instructions of the 121st Bureau, Park Jung-kwon began to kidnap Indian IT talents, and Galava also became the target of Park Jung-kwon. Galava woke up, "Where is this?" What do you want to do? His eyes slowly adjusted to the light, and he shouted at Park Jung-kwon.

Park Jung-kwan opened the curtains in a daze, and the peaks and autumn leaves outside the window were all over the place, "Mr. Galava, this is the first mountain in North Korea, Mount Kumgang, you are now in the sanatorium we built for the great leader, and we hope that you will preside over the quantum computer project in North Korea." ”

"North Korea? Mt. Kongo? Aren't you American? Galava looked outside at the red star flag on a white background, and he understood that he had been kidnapped.

"I'm sorry Mr. Galava, I should have explained my identity to you earlier, but India is too dangerous, and for your safety, I thought I'd better tell you the truth now." Park Jung-kwan sat down, "I'm North Korean, I grew up in the United States, and I work for North Korea. The rise of Bitcoin is not your fault, it itself is a conspiracy of the Americans, you were just used, and now the only way to fight back is to build a quantum computer and crack Bitcoin in order to save the world and move towards Datong! ”

"North Korea's conditions can also make quantum computers?" Galava had a look of disbelief on his face.

"You rest first, I'll show you around our quantum computer in the afternoon, and then you will have confidence in us." Park Jung-kwon exited the room. Galava opened the window and a mountain breeze blew, and it was the first time he had smelled such fresh air, which was nothing like the curry powder in the slums of Bangalore.

In the afternoon, a roar woke up the sleeping Galava, and Park Jung-kwon pushed the door in, "Mr. Galava, it's time for us to go." "A MiG helicopter on the tarmac was rapidly turning its rotors, Park Jung-kwan and Galava got on the plane, and as soon as the pilot pulled the control stick, the helicopter took off and flew westward." Where are we going? Galava asked aloud.

"In North Korea, there are no more than ten people who can sit on this plane and ask this question, and you are one of them, Mr. Galava, we will fly to the 121st Bureau, and then you will see the true strength of North Korea's computer network technology!"

It took less than half an hour for the helicopter to land from the Mt. Kumgang Sanatorium to Yongsan-ri, and after entering the heavily guarded gate, Park Jung-kwon led Garawa down to the basement, where the leader's portrait was hung all the way, and guards saluted them everywhere he went. From the basement, the two took the elevator and descended for about half a minute and stopped.

"This was built using a former diamond mine, five hundred meters underground, to protect against any nuclear bomb attack on Earth." Park Zhengquan proudly introduced to Galava, coming out of the elevator, they saw a clump of electronic wires entangled through the thick glass window, "This is our quantum computer model, it's too cold inside to get in, let's go into the monitoring room." ”

"This is a product of Mr. Suburamanyan, right?" Looking at the arrangement of the laser tubes exposed to the outside, Galava recognized that this was the product of the Raiden Company, "That's right, you are really a wise man, you can see the origin at a glance." "Park Jung-kwon brought Galava into the monitoring room, and the director of the 121 bureau was waiting for them.

"Galava, why are you here?" The gray-haired Suburamanyan stood up and reached over to grasp Galava vigorously.

"What a reunion, Mr. Galava, North Korea welcomes you, show your skills here!" The Director of 121 is also very fluent in English. "I guess it's the same as you." Galava smiled at Suburamanyan, he hadn't had such an expression for several years, the conditions of the North Koreans were indeed beyond his expectations, this 121 round was really not simple, Galava no longer hesitated, he wanted to start here, drive Bitcoin out of the digital world, and let Bangalore flourish again.

After the exchange meeting, Galava basically figured out the status of this quantum computer, and the director of the 121 bureau asked him to express his opinion, Galava frowned, "I have been away from Thunder and Lightning for a long time, I need time to digest, I want to go back and rest for a while to sort out my thoughts, and I can't express specific opinions now." The director and Park Jung-kwon exchanged glances, "Okay, the meeting is over, Mr. Galava, you can go back and rest." ”

Sitting on the helicopter, Park Jung-kwon couldn't help it, "Mr. Galava, what you just said is not the truth, right?" Galava smiled, "I raised this question when I was lightning, relying on the superconducting environment to build a quantum computer is definitely a dead end, and the power consumption invested in maintaining the superconducting environment will increase exponentially with the increase of qubits, and the computer built in this way has no use value at all." ”

"Why didn't you bring it up at the meeting just now?" Before going out, the director also grabbed Park Zhengquan and asked him if he was sure about Galava, and now Park Zhengquan's worried heart can be settled.

"Mr. Subramanian used to be my boss at the time of thunder and lightning, and if I say that, it will make him too ugly."

"Then you must have a new idea in mind about quantum computers?" Park Jung-kwan asked impatiently.

The helicopter was about to arrive at the Mount Kongo Sanatorium, the rotors began to slow down, and Galava's words sounded clearer, "Diamond mines, the answer is in diamonds, I proposed in Raiden that the core processor of quantum computers must use diamond carbon atoms as winding to calculate quantum, which is possible to work at room temperature." The plane came to a standstill, and Park Jung-kwon respectfully sent Galava into the room.

October 3, 2028 is the Mid-Autumn Festival of the lunar calendar, corresponding to the 8th year of the number of yuan, and the history of both human and Homo sapiens is a disaster.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is second only to the Lunar New Year in South Korea, at the beginning of the Great Division, South Korea retained its political system because of ethnic unity, but the South Korean market is small, after the door of world trade is closed, the economy is no longer what it used to be, people have no jobs to do, and the holidays are getting longer and longer, and the Mid-Autumn Festival has been extended from three days off ten years ago to half a month, which is five days longer than the long holiday of China, the next-door neighbor.

The first wave of electronics manufacturing, on which Koreans rely on their foothold in the world, was hit because the more developed the IT industry, the more prosperous the school of physical studies. Then there is the shipbuilding industry dragged by the sluggish world trade, not to mention the cars, when the Mid-Autumn Festival arrives in previous years, the highway from Seoul to the suburbs will be blocked by large and small cars going on vacation, and now the highway is deserted, people are pulling into their belts and hiding in their houses, where is there still the heart to go out on vacation.

Under the influence of the sports school, the plastic surgery market of Koreans is shrinking day by day, because people no longer regard the face carved in the same mold as beauty, which makes the entertainment industry lose its overseas market, and gradually become a custom industry to meet domestic demand, which became a unique pillar industry in the Great Depression, and the once prosperous Myeongdong shopping street has become a gathering place for the customs industry, surrounded by drunk men and women all day long.

A modern country ranked in the top 15 on the Human Development Index (HDI) has almost regressed to the level it had since since the end of the Korean War in just five years, thanks to the anti-globalization movement, and the course of history is about to be rewritten again in the 75 years following the armistice between the North and the South.
