Chapter Forty-Six: A Blind Bear Pokes Out of the Rabbit's Nest
In Xiaguang CBD, Intel's Huaxia headquarters, and the president's office, Wei Anbang and the vice president in charge of public relations held a small meeting.
Wei Anbang said with a puzzled face: "Galika is really evil, the headquarters attaches great importance to it, I heard that Ye Arui is the politician who is good at dancing with long sleeves, and he is personally arresting it." No, the report we handed in early yesterday morning is only now ...... Within 30 hours, the measures were sent and we were asked to implement them immediately. β
The vice president was a little dissatisfied: "This is pushing us to the front as a gunman." β
"Who let this thing come out of Huaxia District", Wei Anbang sighed, and immediately cheered up: "Since the headquarters has given instructions, let's do it, not only quickly, but also show determination, you tell me how to do it." β
The vice president is obviously familiar with this aspect, and in the blink of an eye, he has a case: "I will immediately go to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology to convey the serious concern of the headquarters about the patent infringement of Galika." Next year, some cooperation with the government and the education department, as well as some of our financing and loan projects in Huaxia, will be stopped first, of course, this requires the boss to write an email. β
"On the media side, I will tell the people below to carry out crisis public relations, and the major print media and online media, as well as the Internet community, will treat the matter of Galika coldly, and will not be allowed to report or comment. On the search engine side, it's no problem to get Chihiro in Huaxia District. β
"There are too many partners and they are scattered, and the cost of solving them is relatively high......
Wei Anbang waved his hand and said: "I will convene the bosses of the first- and second-tier OEMs to have a conference call, and I will preside over it, put pressure on the chipset authorization, and then use the advertising fee as a carrot." First, they are not allowed to OEM for Galika, and they are not allowed to push similar products. The second is to follow our follow-up measures, the headquarters is writing chipset firmware patches, which can block the afterburner card from the hardware level. β
The vice president calculated, frowned, and said: "This is at least hundreds of millions of additional expenses, and it has also been sent to the government and partners." β
Wei Anbang sneered: "Ye Ali said something at the headquarters, if it can't be done, it proves that I, the boss of Huaxia District, have different intentions!" β
The vice president gasped and threatened people for this? Listen to Wei Anbang again: "Of course, before I leave, I also have to deal with people who are incompetent." β
This is talking about himself, a layer of fine sweat suddenly secreted from the vice president's forehead, and the original schadenfreude mentality also turned instantly, taking this matter as a matter of life and death.
In the United States, another online conference has just begun, although it is late at night, countless gamers and major media reporters are staring closely at the news page of Steam, tweeting "G fat thief heart does not die and then play game consoles", "V Society hit the game console market for the second time, is it another trick show death?" and other remarks flew all over the sky.
V Society once entered the game console market a few years ago,The launch of the Steam game console plus a TV streaming box is an attempt to get involved in the living room entertainment base camp of PS and XBOX,Unfortunately, the machine is expensive,There are few PC games suitable for the living room to play,It can be said that it is a bloody encounterγ I didn't expect the scar to heal yet, and I was clamoring for a new game console.
In the video, G Fat, the helmsman of V Society, is in high spirits: "Game consoles, no, a new era of games has arrived!" Together with Illusion, we will open the door to a new world for gamers! β
The Steam console in the demo looks like a thickened version of the previous generation's failure, but the subsequent teardown shows a difference. Underneath the console are two somewhat bizarre cards, one that looks a bit like a second CPU, and the other that has four ARM processors, both of which have a ROM with the clover logo on them.
G fat's flickering level is master-level,"Game performance improved by 100%","Completely free upgrade mode","Support for the next generation of 3D technology","Ten years out of style" and other slogans shouted everyone's hearts warmed,But I didn't even see the actual machine.,It's all DEMO.γ It wasn't until the picture shifted to the CEO of the Phantom Company of the "strategic partner" that he saw the true face of those two cards.
"This is the Alfalfa engine, the source of a new generation of 3D technology, whether it is a real or fantasy world, through it, in a way to recreate the real, to show everyone."
"What is the magic of the Alfalfa engine that would bring such a miracle? Oh, forgot to introduce myself, I'm Matthew Lawrence, does anyone remember me? I am back! I came up with the Merkrit technique ten years ago, I failed then, and now, I take it with ...... In the words of the Orientals, with the fruits of ten years of retreat, back! β
In the live broadcast room, Lawrence said with a red face, and his heart flashed the faces that mocked him ten years ago, where are they? Did they see it? I'm back, I'm coming for revenge!
was filled with the joy of success, and the bitter water that was originally full of complaints and complaining that Xia Ming limited this time to hold an online conference was evaporated.
Lawrence is not very satisfied with Xia Ming, the boss, the first is too young, the second is too strict, especially in the progress requirements, he is simply a madman! I asked for the software of the alfalfa engine in less than a month, but at that time, what the hell did I agree to him.
But now that I look back, I really did it! Moreover, Xia Ming and Lin Cheng only took more than half a month to come up with the hardware, and even had the spare energy to borrow the foundation of Clover to make an afterburner card, which could complete code writing and testing in such a short time, is their brain a supercomputer?
Xia Ming and Lin Cheng are really amazing young people, but ...... In just one month, I not only got the software part, but also wrote a paper on the implementation of Mekrit through the Alfalfa engine, which was accepted by the world's top computer vision conference ICCV yesterday, which means that the Alfalfa engine has been recognized by the academic community.
In addition, he also persuaded G Fat of V Society to fool him into the chariot of the Alfalfa engine. Of course,Compared with G fat who can talk about it with only DEMO,,I'm still too sincere.γ
All kinds of distractions flashed through his mind like shooting stars, and Lawrence continued to burn with enthusiasm, and began to introduce the principle and construction of the Alfalfa engine to countless viewers on the Internet.
In Yandu, in the venue of Panwang Daguan, Wu Sihao's slightly muffled voice echoed, and no one spoke, for fear of missing a word. Including Luo Xiang, she shrunk back in her seat, her face burned crimson and couldn't fade, for fear of being seen.
"The core technology of the Alfalfa engine is the Mekrit technology proposed by Matthew Lawrence ten years ago, and Mr. Lawrence is the CEO of Mirage Inc. The basic idea of this technology is to build virtual worlds based on the laws of the real world. β
"But just like the lady just mentioned, even if you set the size of the smallest particles visible to human vision, the number of particles is quite staggering, and the computing power of personal computers cannot meet the demand, which is why Mekrit technology has been silent for a decade."
"Ten years later, hardware technology has improved a lot, whether it is the X86 architecture or the ARM architecture, it still can't meet the needs. The model car model we just built will take at least two to three hours if you use a general personal computer, such as an i9 processor and a top-of-the-line graphics card, and the economy and reliability are obviously not reliable. β
Wu Sihao pointed to the card on the PPT: "So, we have found a different way to use the quaternary characteristics of quantum computing to define particles at the hardware level. That's right, the Safalfa engine is an application of quantum computing and is the most cutting-edge technology. β
"This card of the Alfalfa engine is to integrate the relevant resources of the computer into a quadruple virtual machine from the hardware level, providing the underlying environment for the editor of the alfalfa. The computer I used to model the car just now is just an i7 computer, and the graphics card is also very ordinary, but everyone has seen the effect. β
There was an uproar in the audience, quantum computing!? Quaternary!? I thought it was just something in the laboratory, but I didn't expect it to be applied in reality!
Luo Xiang trembled and sent a message on the meager mobile phone that "the quaternary system is the first to see the application, Huaxia leads quantum computing", she realized that this was a major opportunity for herself, and she must block Wu Sihao later, even if she squeezed the chest belt! As long as you grab the news, it's all worth it.
"The chip on the alfalfa card is not the four ARM chips, but the chip below, which is exactly the same as the one on the afterburner card!"
"yes, it's all a clover logo, these two things must be related."
Lao Dao and Lao Kang next to him were muttering again, which made Luo Xiang also wonder, is it Galika again?
The boy in the front row tilted his head sideways, as if talking to himself, as if he was talking to someone: "It's easy to understand that four processors correspond to the quaternary system, but where is the system?" With a quaternary system, isn't it possible to do more? β
Luo Xiang gritted his teeth, almost jumped up, and repeated the boy's question in a sharp and trill voice.
Seeing that everyone was stunned, she hurriedly said: "I'm Luo Xiang, a reporter from Xinlang Technology Channel, I'm sorry, I'm so excited, I'm really sorry to disturb me." β
Ordinary people are disdainful and disdainful, and peers are all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred, and some people mutter: "This is not an illusion to find a trust, the problems are so appropriate." β
was interrupted twice by the same person, Wu Sihao was also stunned, but after looking at the audience, especially the front row of Luo Xiang, he realized something, and smiled without mind: "Good question!" β
The people below are speechless, don't be so obvious about finding help!
However, this question is indeed a good question, and it is to force Wu Sihao to say more dry goods.
"As you may see, this chip is on this card, and this chip is the core of the Alfalfa engine, which we call the clover architecture. It is also compatible with the existing binary architecture while building a quadernary architecture, so it is called a clover. β
Wu Sihao used a laser pointer to point on the chip printed with the clover logo, and said something that caused an uproar at the scene again: "This clover has been applied, and it is the afterburner card launched by Cicada Technology." β
The core of the Galika is the same as the Alfalfa engine!?
Galika turned out to be a quadruple architecture for quantum computing!?
Cicada movement and illusion have cooperation!?
Countless questions are swirling around people's minds, making it difficult for them to sort out a clear idea. This press conference is not only full of dry goods, but also thunder.
Cicada's Gallica has recently caused a lot of turmoil in the industry, everyone is waiting to see how Intel will react, and most people also feel that Cicada is impossible to find a thigh hug as thick as Google like last time.
Whether it is Intel or the cicadas, it has always been silent, but everyone knows that the calmer it is, the more turbulent the undercurrent under the water.
I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect that at the press conference that I saw that it was going to trigger a revolution in 3D technology, the cicada suddenly jumped out and hooked up with the illusion that it would become the new overlord of 3D technology through the clover.
It's not looking for thighs to hug, it's about turning into thighs yourself!
"You're so bad......"
The mushroom-headed girl wearing sunglasses in the front row was coquettish towards the boy, Luo Xiang didn't know why, and there was no trace of apology for plagiarizing the boy in his heart.
"So I'm waiting here!"
"I'll just say it! The core technology of Galika must be very good! I must buy another piece when I go back, it's only 599, it's too cheap! β
"This alfalfa engine is so fun, I don't know how much it costs."
"This must be a thousand......
The two boys next to him were very excited, Luo Xiang didn't bother to pay attention to them, and the editor-in-chief called.
After listening to it for a while, her pretty face became hideous and distorted: "What!? Don't say Galika? Editor-in-chief, did you see the text live? This is quantum computing, what the hell is Intel! β
Then it changed to joy: "Really? Just have your words! This is an independent and impartial media! Yes, yes, I will definitely keep an eye on it, and I will definitely make an appointment for an interview! β
Other reporters were also answering the phone, all emotional, looking like Luo Xiang, what was going on in the rear, what were these reporters fighting for.
More than ten minutes later, Intel's vice president in charge of public relations received a report from the general manager of the public relations department below, and his face suddenly turned black: "The media is disobedient? What's going on!? The hundreds of millions of advertising dollars that we Intel give every year are fed to the dogs!? What, Sativa engine? Clover? Quantum computing? You TM speak human words! I don't care, I just want the result of this matter, not a reason! β
Hung up the phone, the vice president gasped, isn't this afterburner just a rabbit, it was originally to seal the rabbit's nest, how did a bear blind jump out?
On Wall Street, Manhattan, New York, the assistant knocked on the door of the Intel Board of Public Financial Affairs and handed Yaari a mobile phone: "Professor Philip has an urgent matter to find you......"
Philip, a senior consultant at Intel's display technology department and one of the judges of the ICCV, what is the matter with him?
Yeari glanced at the assistant suspiciously, and confirmed that it was not the other party who was entrusted by the favor to take the line, and then took the phone.
"I'm Yaari, huh...... Well...... What the!? You repeat? β
Jeari's voice suddenly rose a few degrees, and the assistant cautiously exited the office, knowing that the boss was in a bad mood right now.
