Chapter 879
"It's really cool here!" Boss Jia yawned after arriving in Tongren and said.
It was obviously August and the weather was the hottest, but when Boss Jia arrived in Tongren, he had the urge to wear a coat. It was too cold here.
"Mr. Jia, we have a Fanjing Mountain here, which is very beautiful. I can take you to visit. At the same time, we can also jointly develop Fanjing Mountain, a treasure land that has not yet been developed, and make it a first-class tourist destination in the country!" Tongren's leader said with a smile.
"It's a bit inappropriate to turn such a beautiful pure land in Fanjing Mountain into our production base!" Boss Jia smiled.
"What, you want to build a production base in Tongren!" The leader was shocked.
"What, isn't it possible?" Boss Jia smiled.
"No, of course, but we Tongren..." The leader wanted to speak but stopped, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Jia, I believe you saw it when you came. Our Tongren has not yet opened a highway, and only the national highway can pass. However, the national highway has been in disrepair recently, and many areas are simply... Mr. Jia, if you want to carry out production and construction here, I am afraid of transportation."
"Don't worry about transportation. The base construction does not cost much material or much money. After completion, in addition to transporting some materials into it, there is no need for much freight capacity in a short period of time."
"I also saw this along the way. Tongren's road was a little broken. In fact, the road was still wide enough and enough transportation!"
"But Tongren's communication is still a bit bad, so I think in the future I will invest in the construction of an information expressway to help Tongren develop the network and let Tongren stand at the forefront of the world!" Boss Jia said to the leader with a smile, but the leader was confused. He didn't understand what the information expressway is at all!
"Forget it, please tell me that Tongren is the coolest and the highest mountain at the same time. Where is the most suitable place for digging caves?" Boss Jia asked again.
“…”
In the next few days, Boss Jia, accompanied by local staff in Tongren, was able to see almost all the mountains in Tongren, and finally Boss Jia took a look at a mountain called Fuying Mountain. Although this mountain is not too high, it covers a large area and is connected to several surrounding mountains. Finally, Boss Jia pointed to the mountain and said, "It's here, I'll choose this!"
[PS: Fuying Mountain just took a casual look on the map. The specific situation is not clear. If it does not meet the actual situation, you can ignore it.]
"You choose this place!" The leaders of Tongren around were completely confused. There was no serious road around Fuying Mountain within a radius of hundreds of miles.
Moreover, the mountains are continuous, and there are only three nearby villages.
When they arrived at Fuying Mountain, they drove a whole morning of Niba Road, and then climbed a whole afternoon of mountain road before finally reaching Fuying Mountain. Boss Jia actually wanted to build the base here. Isn’t this nonsense?
"Leader, I know what you are worried about. Actually, I chose this place. I plan to build the whole of China... No, the world's first super data center. In the next ten years, I will install more than 100,000 super servers here, and this place will also become one of the most important information nodes in South China!" Boss Jia said with a smile, and finally expressed his true purpose.
That's right, Boss Jia wants to build a big data center here, just like Penguin and Alibaba in later generations, and almost all high-tech companies, they almost all placed their servers here.
The future is the Internet era, and for an Internet enterprise, the biggest cost is not the labor cost, but the cost of the server.
The higher the traffic of a network company, the more servers the company needs, and it is enough to rent a small website.
But a large website requires several servers to connect to the network, while a super network enterprise like Penguin requires thousands or even tens of thousands of servers.
If you enter the cloud data center stage in the future and engage in cloud computing, Nokia will be at the level of 100,000 units.
With so many servers, the purchase cost is very high, but it only costs money. However, how to maintain the normal operation of the server is a huge problem.
First of all, the server needs a lot of electricity. The electricity required by 100,000 servers may be the total power of a large city, so the electricity cost will be very high.
Although the infrastructure of Zhougui Province is very bad, because of the mountains and rivers of Zhougui Province, the hydropower generation in Zhougui Province is very developed. There are hundreds of hydropower stations in Zhougui Province. Zhougui Province's power is very rich. However, in the era when the high-voltage power grid in the country was not yet built, even if the power generation in Zhougui Province is too much, it can only be wasted, and it cannot be sold to other provinces and cities.
Therefore, the electricity bill in the province is particularly cheap. Industrial electricity is basically the same as civil electricity. Daqian’s data center is built in the province, and at least tens of billions of electricity bills could be saved in that year.
In addition, the most important thing about the server is the heat dissipation problem. So much power is consumed, so it is conceivable that the heat is generated. The servers are basically gathered together. Without strong heat dissipation capabilities, the service will not take long to crash due to the high temperature.
Therefore, the server must be in a low temperature environment. In the future, in order to dissipate heat, companies such as Microsoft or Google will directly throw their servers into the seabed to let the cold sea water dissipate heat.
But this looks cool, but in fact there will be a lot of trouble in the future, and the loss will be very large for the server. It is better to be placed on the ground to dissipate heat.
The average temperature in Zhougui Province is between 12 and 16 degrees Celsius. At the same time, Zhougui Province is windy, especially in mountainous areas, where the wind blows almost every day.
This is a natural radiator. The heat generated by the server can be taken away by the low-temperature wind at the first time, saving a lot of heat dissipation costs.
Moreover, the province of the state is full of mountains. At that time, just dig a mountain and then place the server in the belly of the mountain. The cost of building a large center that year would be saved, which would be a huge profit.
Then there is the issue of land prices. Well, the land here is basically no different from free gifts.
In addition, there is another advantage, that is, there is a lack of people here, and most people will not appear near the data center. Once it appears, there is a high probability that it is a guy with ulterior motives, which can prevent people with ulterior motives from entering.
Therefore, Zhougui Province is the best place to build data centers. Daqian's future data center is to be built in Zhougui Province. It can be imagined that in more than ten years, this small Fuying Mountain will bear more than ten percent of the huge traffic in China.
But isn’t it too early to build a data center in Zhougui Province?
Network technology is not yet developed enough now, and the traffic in China is less than one billionth of that of later generations. There are not even 5,000 netizens across the country. It is enough to find a house in big cities and build one or two servers. It seems that there is no need to lay out big data service centers in the province and province more than ten years in advance.
If you want to build a big data service center here, just cutting the road and pulling network cables may be as much as tens of billions of yuan.
That's right. Whether you are Penguin or Alibaba, their initial data centers were all laid out in a small space in a big city, so it doesn't matter if you take your time.
But Boss Jia’s idea is very simple. Since there will be such a data center in the future, it doesn’t matter if Boss Jia makes arrangements and builds them in advance!
More importantly, Boss Jia clearly remembers that at the beginning of the Internet era, various problems that caused the server problems, such as lags, disconnections, etc., which greatly affected the user experience. These are the reasons why the server is insufficient or the construction is too poor.
