Chapter 192 The Integrity of a Great Country

"Actually, this matter is also a good thing for Yuanjia." Ning Lei said this first, and then he talked about the reason for the incident.

Although the first giant electronic computer developed by the Republic in 1983 successfully broke through the 100 million operations mark per second, it successfully entered the ranks of a few countries on this planet that can develop supercomputers on their own.

However, due to the level of electronic technology and other reasons, when the Republic's first Galaxy giant appeared at the end of 1983, it was already outdated internationally in terms of performance. At that time, the fastest supercomputer in the world was located in the Alamos National Laboratory in the United States, with a computing speed of nearly 1 billion times per second.

Two months later, the superpower in the north of the Republic increased the speed of supercomputers to more than 2 billion times per second in one go, leaving behind the last glory of the Iron Empire in the field of high-tech.

The high treatment of scientific researchers in the United States and the Soviet Union is different. The Republic, which has just been reopened for a short time, is in a mess. Even if the Galaxy giant is a project 286 personally handled, the treatment of scientific researchers is extremely difficult. Few people can imagine that the Galaxy large computer in the Republic was actually created in the night school for farmers to literate night schools.

After the Galaxy Type 1 was put into use in 1983, Mr. Chi Yungui, the founder of the Republic's supercomputer, continued to invest in the research and development of Galaxy Type 2 supercomputer. However, due to the Republic's economy, technology and other reasons, the progress was very slow.

Among the older generation of academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, many of them have backgrounds in studying in Europe and the United States, and even examples of being alumni are common. Many academicians are friends with good relationships with each other. Although Liang Yuan is extremely low-key, some of Yuanjia's things have gradually spread throughout the Chinese Academy of Sciences through Wu Zhonghua.

While all scientists were living hard, a rich man who was willing to spend money on scientific research suddenly appeared. The Turbo Power Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences led by Wu Zhonghua suddenly became rich. Yuanjia was a local rich man and could not hide it for long.

Su Liangyu, Jian Zhikang and others fought a patent lawsuit in the United States. Chi Yungui had long seen it.

However, Liang Yuan did not apply for scientific research funds from the state, provincial and municipalities, but only regarded the entire chip research and development and production as a branch for the normal operation of the enterprise. Secondly, Yuan Jia just tried to use the overhaul line of the F14 fighter jet and nodded in the military industry, and was slapped to death by the AVIC General Office under the National Defense Science and Technology Commission. Liang Yuan did not have the mood to report to the National Defense Science and Technology Commission at any time.

Therefore, the real level of Yuanjia Electronics Research Institute is like a mystery. The outside world basically knows little, and coupled with the sensitivity of military supercomputers, even Chi Yungui, who was a member of the Standing Committee of the National Defense Science and Technology Commission at the time, could not find a place to enter for the time being, which made Liang Yuan stay safe until now.

However, after the Hong Kong Basic Electronics and the United States MiPS settled and obtained the patent transfer of the R2000 chip, Chi Yungui could no longer bear it. After all, the Republic creatively used a two-way array pipeline structure system on supercomputers and used software to strengthen computer performance. It was entirely a stopgap measure of low chip frequency and low performance.

The r2000 chip has a main frequency of up to 15mhz. After making changes suitable for supercomputers, Chi Yungui is 100% sure, which improves the computing performance of the Galaxy 2 supercomputer, which is currently difficult to develop, to more than 3 billion yuan per second. As for the future development prospects, it is even more limitless.

What can supercomputers run more than 3 billion times per second do? Chi Yungui, the founder of the Republic's supercomputer, knows even more.

After communicating with Su Liangyu and others, and receiving the routine reply of "Hong Kong Basic Electronics has not considered developing supercomputers", the National Defense Science and Technology Commission, which is the leader, manages the entire defense industry of the Republic, finally found Ning Lei's head after being prompted by someone from the General Office of the Central Committee for seven or eight times.

"Xiaoyuan. The most important purpose of the National University of Defense Technology proposed to jointly develop is to rely on the r2000 chip to develop supercomputers with computing speeds of more than 6 billion times per second to simulate nuclear tests in subcritical states."

"Xiaoyuan should know that the cost of nuclear weapons is extremely expensive. At that time, the United States even used one-third of the raw materials needed to produce nuclear weapons. In addition, the huge power of nuclear weapons is accompanied by radiation and other problems, making nuclear weapons unsuitable for technology upgrades using methods to improve conventional weapons. Therefore, the simulation functions provided by supercomputers are crucial."

After hearing Ning Lei say that, Liang Yuan smacked his lips. Liang Yuan didn't care much about the value of 6 billion per second calculation speed. When Su Liangyu and others booked the development plan, they had already considered the requirement that the supercomputer's calculation speed must exceed or reach 4 billion times per second.

"Uncle Ning, can't the calculation speed be less than 6 billion times simulate nuclear tests?" Liang Yuan asked in a rare opportunity to learn about the various related things of the "Taiwan Artifact".

"Uncle Ning doesn't understand this either, but Uncle Ning remembered a few words. It is said that the computing speed of supercomputers is divided into peak speed and application speed. The performance between the two will be twice as bad. For simulated critical nuclear tests, the application speed of 3 billion times can barely meet the requirements of simulated nuclear tests."

"Uncle Ning, if you simulate normally, you need a supercomputer to achieve multiple calculation speeds." Liang Yuan asked.

"The computing speed reaches 6 billion times per second, which means that the peak computing value of supercomputers is about 12 billion times per second." Ning Lei stretched out his hand and gestured.

Liang Yuan turned his eyes and thought about it, and suddenly remembered that the Republic in his previous life seemed to have signed the "Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty" around 1996 (Note 1), while the Galaxy 3 computer with a computing speed of 13 billion times per second passed the national achievement appraisal in 1997.

Of course, in 1996, the Republic also conducted its last underground nuclear test, but I don’t know if it was correcting the data for the Galaxy 3 supercomputer.

A great country has never been impartial, and Liang Yuan suddenly had the urge to laugh.

"6 billion per second, it's really difficult for Yuanjia Electronics Research Institute. Listen to Lao Su and the others chatting, the most advanced supercomputers in the world are currently running at only 10 billion per second. If they can really make it, Lao Su and the others will really reach the top in one step." Liang Yuan sighed. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile phone users please read it.)

ps: Note 1: The nuclear ban treaty, I signed the next day, and it didn't even arrive for 24 hours. That's a quick one. Compared with the third brother who voted against humanity, anti-sociality, and extremely vicious, my rabbit's desire for peace is fully revealed.

Unfortunately, the National People's Congress, who was a big death, did not give me any face and did not approve it. There was rumors that I applied for several times, but the proposal was always beaten back for rectification, hahaha.
Chapter completed!
