In the first hour of the G series notebooks, this batch of 1,500 notebooks was sold out within 3 minutes.

Half of the buyers are consumer electronics competitors, a small half are media people and laboratories, and the rest are real users.

Now users who can buy G1X can really only say that they support domestic production, because the supporting environment is too simple, and there are few supported functions.

In addition to word processing office and audio and video viewing, XOS3.2 also has great limitations, such as not supporting flash plug-ins......

Such a notebook sells for 8599, which is indeed too expensive, and it is only three or four thousand to buy a Lenovo netbook at the same time.

But expensive is expensive, but everyone knows the potential of domestic production, not to mention that the cross-era AI function support can make people feel that the money is well spent.

What's more, the emergence of G1X is a strong proof of the feasibility of ternary technology, at least no worse than binary!

Of course, this is all for ordinary people to see, and the research of ternary chips in high-end laboratories is non-stop.

Beijing University of Science and Technology, Space Quantum Laboratory.

In front of Peng Jianfu was a messy mess of wiring harnesses, which were connected to a modified motherboard, on which most of the originals had been removed or replaced, and connected to the test equipment by flying cables.

This is an XC4 motherboard, which was lying here two months ago.

They first tried to crack the XW151 intelligent system, but due to the cross-entry and deliberate encryption, the cracking process was extremely difficult, and finally gave up altogether.

Then he changed direction and started directly from scratch, first talking about the infrastructure of the X32115 physically, and then trying to compile the underlying operating environment by himself to explore the potential of the ternary chip.

After more than a month of hard work, the lab finally managed to establish a rudimentary basic environment, or operating system, where some tests could be conducted.

The reason why Peng Jianfu asked the lab to work hard to develop X32115 is because he believes that ternary chips may have the potential for quantum computing and directly surpass traditional computers in principle.

Just two hours ago, the lab had just called 9 qubits and successfully performed a quantum operation.

Quantum computers, are they coming......

……

“G1X？ Not as good as our X16. ”

Seryov glanced at the G1X prototype sent by the Great Wall with disgust, and then picked up the X16 notebook equipped with Xinyuan this year.

X16Of course, it's amazing, it is equipped with X320 series chips that have been slightly improved three times, 14nm silicon carbide, and the overall workmanship is also CNC machined ultra-light aerospace alloy material, light and portable.

Even if it is equipped with very little software, it is similar to G1X, but now the microelectronics department is working hard to develop industrial software, and is sorting out the rich database accumulated by Xinyuan, and the first version of design and analysis software will be available in another month.

And the successor to Xingchen-1, the Xingchen-2 supercomputer, is also under development.

Xingchen No. 2 is much more powerful, and will use the newly upgraded X32045 chip, although it is still 14nm, but the architecture is deliberately optimized, and 20000 CPUs constitute a new supercomputer.

In addition to the exponential increase in computing power, Xingchen-2 will also support quantum computing on a small scale for the first time, which is particularly optimized for some design aspects, and the computing speed in specific scenarios will be thousands of times faster than that of traditional computers, which is very exaggerated.

Of course, the power consumption has also increased by 10 times, and the power supply bureau has to be contacted to increase the line.

More than half a month has passed, Seryov has completed the transformation of the production links of the two bases, and now each workshop is independent, only accepting computer instructions to complete processing at the specified time, and the independence between various departments has been strengthened again.

Now Seryov is not only in charge of the operation of the entire base, but also directly involved in several projects.

First of all, it is the "Nakshatra" deep space exploration program that Xiao Okada is in charge of.

After more than two months of research, Xiao Okada already has a preliminary plan.

"Coro...... Chief Engineer Xie, I think that for deep space exploration, the first thing we need to pay attention to is cost control, and controlling costs well can also improve efficiency.

I intend to design a universal satellite platform with an output power of around 15 to 30KW and be able to operate for at least 20 years. ”

Xiao Okada turned on his computer and showed Seryov the "Nakshatra" general satellite platform.

At first glance, Seryov is almost a super-large satellite weighing 6 to 10 tons, because it is mainly used for deep space exploration, the most powerful part is the signal transmitter, and the payload is a variety of detection functions for the target planet.

In addition, it also has a highlight that it can be equipped with an optional nuclear reactor and the 50N-class ultra-high-thrust Hall thruster that Xinyuan currently has, which can maintain maneuverability for many years, which is a function that the deep space probes of the past did not have.

Although it weighs about the same as the Alpine series, the Nakshatra is much more sophisticated, so there's a problem: it's not very capable of being launched with rockets.

The maximum acceleration of the rocket can reach about 5G, and it is best to use the H2M series shuttles.

Compared with the rocket, H2M because of the huge mass, if it is launched by Xinyuan No. 2A, the rocket not only has a small thrust-to-weight ratio when it is launched, but also needs to deflect the engine nozzle to adjust the yaw caused by the center of gravity in the future, and the acceleration process is relatively long, so the overload is smaller, only about 3G.

As for the launch of Xinyuan-3, H2 is used as a third stage to hit the moon, which is not usually used.

But here's the problem, even if it hits the orbit of other planets, the required rocket LEO capacity is enough for a maximum of 20 tons, and the cost of a launch is less than 100 million.

And H2 needs to use Xinyuan-2A to launch once, and the launch cost is 500 million, which is too expensive, and the launch cost of seven planets is almost 4 billion, far exceeding the budget.

However, if the anti-load capacity of the detector is strengthened, it will bring a lot of dead weight, and some ultra-precision detection instruments may also have problems that cannot be installed, so Seryov needs to solve this problem first.

Although he had previously presided over landers and flyby probes to Venus and Mars, times had changed, and there were no such powerful precision instruments as they do now.

Do you control your budget...... It has always been the specialty of the Alliance.

Seryov carefully looked at the technical data and design manuals that Xiao Okada had compiled over the past period of time, and first nodded in affirmation:

"Okada, your design work is very good, so many functions with a minimum of 6 tons of quality is really good, very good, no need to add extra weight.

As for vehicles, why limit ourselves to what we have? ”

Xiao Okada: "You mean ......"

Seryov: "Do you know that after the end of the Cold War, many of the Alliance's advanced weapons were declassified, and the world said about us: Alliance scientists have always been able to put together a pile of garbage into excellent machines.

And now there is so much technology in the base, but you don't use it, what I see is that we only need less than 35 million to put a 20-ton space shuttle into orbit, and if it's an unmanned space shuttle, then you can squeeze and plug a 10-ton payload. ”
