No. 096 Collaboration with me as the Lord
Scientific researchers are a big category, including those who want to do industry driven by science and technology, those who want to be promoted to officials and make a fortune with their achievements, and those who live by talking about their lives if they are not worthy of their name. A scientific researcher in a narrow sense does not mean that he lives in a scientific research circle, but that he regards scientific research as an ideal and a goal in life.
Zheng Lixin is a pure scientific researcher in the narrow sense, he loves scientific research, and he is willing to give everything for scientific research.
Zheng Lixin is not a flawless saint, and he also has many shortcomings that are common to the scientific research community. For example, on the issue of scientific research funds, Zheng Lixin once used scientific research funds to ask for food, drink, and begging people to do things, and once used scientific research funds to reimburse tourism consumption, and even a few bottles of drinks and boxes of cigarettes were also included in scientific research consumption, so he was used to naturally treating scientific research funds as an ATM. Zheng Lixin also has his cuteness, he is greedy for small and cheap and stops at the convenience of life, and he will never be as greedy as some corrupt officials, with 10 million greedy for 100 million, with 100 million greedy for 1 billion. At the same time, when there is a shortage of scientific research funds, Zheng Lixin will also shrink his clothes and diet in order to maintain the operation of the project, and put his family's savings back to the project. Perhaps, Zheng Lixin's so-called greed for small and cheap is not deliberately greedy, but a mixture of life and scientific research, scientific research funds are his salary, and his salary is also scientific research funds.
For Zheng Lixin, the most wonderful thing in the world is to have abundant scientific research funds and master the most cutting-edge science and technology, and contribute his wisdom to the country and the nation. These two wishes used to be so unattainable. Looking at China, it goes without saying that the backward appearance of the manufacturing process represented by the wafer factory, and the chip design is also lackluster. Under the blockade of European and American countries, the core technology of chips and supercomputers cannot spread to China in time.
As for abundant research funding...... Hehe, abundant scientific research funding is the ultimate dream of all scientific researchers.
It's a pity, not to mention China, which ranks seventh in the world in terms of GDP, and even the superpower of the United States, the scientific research community is crying poor every day and doing everything possible to raise scientific research funds.
Back to reality, the history of Dawn and Lenovo is longer than Zhiyu, and the scientific research atmosphere is better than Zhiyu. However, when it comes to investment in scientific research and supercomputers, Zhiyu is obviously more serious and willing to spend money than Sugon and Lenovo. Compared with Shuguang, Zhiyu's investment of hundreds of millions of yuan in the early stage is already abundant in a broad sense. The never-before-seen heterogeneous computing supercomputer proposed by Wei Dongsheng is a revolutionary new technology, and China may be able to catch up with the United States and Japan, and Xiao Lei and Zheng Lixin can also become the world's first-class team.
is reasonable, Zheng Lixin doesn't want Zhiyu to fall.
Hearing Xiao Lei's worries, Zheng Lixin immediately expressed his attitude: "The country can't let the heroes shed blood and tears. ”
Xiao Lei couldn't directly ask Zheng Lixin to go home and call his grandfather, so he politely proposed: "You go to my mentor, you go to your mentor, let's ask the reason first?" ”
Zheng Lixin: "It's also vain to ask. Look at Lenovo's case, who in the institute can stop Liu Chuanzhi's restructuring. My mentor can't do it, and neither can your mentor. Besides, the computing institute is angry that we are sniping at the Dawn 4000A, and it's too late to fall under the water. For today's plan, it is necessary to poke up, highlight the importance of the Cambrian 2004 project, and introduce the national will to escort Zhiyu. I believe that the country's top leaders will never allow a supercomputer project that can sprint to the first place in the world to die in a dirty infighting. ”
Xiao Lei: "You have a wide range of channels, so I will leave this matter to you." ”
Zheng Lixin: "Don't worry. ”
After thinking about it, Zheng Lixin assured Xiao Lei again: "I can't do it, I have my grandfather; My grandfather can't do it, and he has two bombs and one star. They all suffered from computers back then, and they will definitely not sit idly by and watch Cambrian 2004 die from the greed of some people. ”
The misunderstanding between Zheng Lixin and Xiao Lei, Wei Dongsheng didn't know anything.
In order to reduce the probability of commercial leaks, the Spring and Autumn series companies and Zhiyu series companies monitored employees' external communications like many established companies, and the black letters in the contracts reminded the employees of the two companies that there was no privacy freedom during working hours. In particular, in the Cambrian 2004 supercomputer project, employees' mobile phones and computers were supervised at various levels, and once suspected of leakage, they were immediately recorded by the computer intelligent life safety system. When Zheng Lixin activated his connections for help, one of the emails was suspected of leaking the core technology of heterogeneous supercomputers, so he was marked in red by the computer intelligent life safety system and sent to Wei Dongsheng.
Wei Dongsheng summarized several emails from Zheng Lixin, based on his ass and his own interests, his first reaction was that he felt that Zheng Lixin wanted to make trouble.
Look at this suspected leaked document, the target of the sending is Qian Depei.
Qian Depei is not only an expert in computer architecture and implementation technology, computer network technology, but also the leader of the high-performance computer and its core software project team of the National 863 Program.
In the national strategic plan, there are three sources of support for high-performance computing research: the National High-tech Research and Development Program (863 Program), the National Key Basic Research and Development Program (973 Program), and the National Natural Science Foundation of China Major Research Program.
Among the three, the 863 Program has the greatest funding and influence. Specific to the 863 Program, in 1998, the focus of research shifted from the development of a single high-performance computer to the construction of high-performance computing infrastructure. In 1999, 863 planned to implement the major project of "National High Performance Computing Environment"; In 2002, 863 planned to implement the major project of "high-performance computers and their core software"; In view of the increasing importance of supercomputers, projects related to high-performance computers and grid service environments are also in the pipeline.
In 2004, China was still an economically weak country, and last year its GDP ranked seventh in the world, behind Italy.
During the 15th Five-Year Plan from 2001 to 2006, the 863 Program allocated only 90 million yuan for high-performance computer research, 50 million yuan for driving investment, and 10 million yuan for applied research. The major project of "high-performance computer and its core software" has set up 32 topics, 71 research units, and more than 700 research personnel.
Wei Dongsheng has continuously delivered the profits of "Spring and Autumn of the Ten Kingdoms" to the Wisdom Universe Information Industry Company through the Spring and Autumn Network, the deposit pre-purchase of Spring and Autumn Software, and the direct investment of Spring and Autumn Software. From December 2003 to May 2004, Wei Dongsheng has secured 200 million yuan in funds, which is more than the total investment during the five-year period of the 863 Plan. It is also in this context that Xiao Lei can call friends and quickly recruit a group of effective scientific research teams.
The state will not continue to ignore the development of supercomputers.
Experts in high-performance computers are already loudly reminding the country to increase the scale of investment. During the 12th Five-Year Plan period from 2006 to 2010, it is very likely that the scientific research funding for high-performance computers will increase tenfold, from 150 million to 1.5 billion. However, even if the scale of investment increases to 1.5 billion, the 200 million funds that have been implemented by the intelligent universe information industry and the follow-up 300 million funds promised by Wei Dongsheng cannot be ignored. It is also against this background that Zheng Lixincai desperately lobbied all parties to keep the Cambrian 2004 project, the Wisdom Universe Information Industry Company, and Wei Dongsheng's enthusiasm for the development of supercomputers.
Wei Dongsheng was puzzled, only seeing Zheng Lixin's desperate efforts to bring in national power, and only seeing Qian Depei's threat of interference. Wei Dongsheng misunderstood that Zheng Lixin had the extreme thinking that national interests were above all else, and when he saw that Xiao Lei's team had verified the feasibility of a heterogeneous supercomputer, he wanted to hand it over to the state to enjoy it for free.
Compared with other countries, Wei Dongsheng is definitely more willing to form a community of interests with his mother country. However, Wei Dongsheng had more lofty ideals and goals, and he clearly understood that the reason for the imminent invasion of the Shadow Empire could not convince the Chinese government to switch to a wartime system. Whether it is the fourth generation or the future fifth generation, they will treat Wei Dongsheng's warning as a pipe dream joke.
Wei Dongsheng can only rely on his own efforts.
Wei Dongsheng does not exclude cooperating with the power of the state, on the contrary, Wei Dongsheng is actually very eager to cooperate with the power of the state and give full play to the potential energy of the 1.3 billion people. However, the cooperation that Wei Dongsheng wants is a cooperation with me as the mainstay, that is, the state forces and Wei Dongsheng jointly invest in the research of the technologies that Wei Dongsheng and the state forces aspire to, rather than the state forces using administrative orders to force Wei Dongsheng to exhaust all his energy to invest in the basic technologies that the state forces desire.
What Wei Dongsheng wants is cooperation with me as the mainstay.
Even if this is not possible, it is necessary to pursue equal cooperation.
The state is a general concept, and the free handover to the state is even more of a general concept. If the intelligent universe really shares the core technologies of heterogeneous computers for free, these core technologies will inevitably be forwarded to various research institutes, and then forwarded to state-owned enterprises and private enterprises that have interests in the research institutes, and state-owned enterprises and private enterprises will be transferred to foreign companies for a fee based on commercial interests. The moral honor brought by handing over to the state free of charge is not as great as imagined.
In fact, if a private enterprise has the core technology that the country needs, there is a set of mature unspoken rules on how to cooperate and win-win, and you do not need to selflessly dedicate yourself to free handover. Wei Dongsheng is currently in the stage of capital accumulation, and he needs a huge amount of capital for his own use, and a huge amount of human resources for his own use, so that he will not be stupid enough to share his core technology for free.
In this way, Zheng Lixin misunderstood that Wei Dongsheng was afraid of being robbed, and Wei Dongsheng misunderstood that Zheng Lixin wanted Zhiyu to selflessly dedicate.
Wei Dongsheng considered the pros and cons for a night, and called Zheng Lixin to an office under the name of Wisdom Universe Information Industry: "You came to Zhiyu in February, right?" ”
Zheng Lixin didn't understand what Wei Dongsheng meant, recalled for more than ten seconds, and replied honestly: "It's the Spring Festival." The institute was on vacation, and I was not busy with any projects in my hands, so I was called by Xiao Lei to help. After staying for a few days, I felt that a heterogeneous supercomputer was indeed feasible, so I stayed in Zhiyu. ”
