Rebirth of the Evil Life

Chapter 438 Supercomputer

supercomputer?

Everyone in the audience was shocked and looked at Cohen with disbelief. Does he think of a supercomputer as a desktop computer, and can he buy it as long as he wants to buy it? Not to mention that others don't sell it, even if they sell it, although the "Second World" is rich and its quarterly net profit has exceeded 100 million U.S. dollars, it is beyond its power to buy a supercomputer.

A supercomputer usually refers to a computer composed of hundreds of thousands or even more processors (machines) that can calculate large and complex tasks that ordinary computers and servers cannot complete. If the calculation speed of an ordinary computer is compared to the walking speed of a human being, then the supercomputer has reached the speed of a rocket. Under the premise of such computing speed, numerical simulations can be used to predict and explain natural phenomena that could not be tested before.

Today's top ten supercomputers in the world, the first is "Roadrunner", located in the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, USA, it is also an IBM system computer, with a calculation speed of 1042 trillion times per second . It is also the world's first supercomputer to break the speed of petaflops. Not least because it also employs a range of gaming- and business-specific technologies, often primarily used in complex and secretive assessments of U.S. nuclear weapons.

China's "Dawn 3000" supercomputer is not ranked in the list. Its system peak performance is 403.2 billion calculations per second. With the strong support of the Computing Institute and other units, the National Intelligent Computer Research and Development Center has been developed after more than a year of hard work. "Dawning 3000" is widely used in many fields such as aerospace, exploration, meteorology, finance, etc., providing supercomputing Serve.

And the worst price of one of the top 100 supercomputers in the world is as high as hundreds of millions of dollars, and the "second world" is not qualified to buy such supercomputers at all.

"Boss, if we want to run the global interconnection of "World War" or the Asian interconnection of "Swordsman Love: Loyalty to Serve the Country", our company must buy a supercomputer. And the core of my 'cloud computing' can also be stored on the supercomputer. In the computer, it will also be able to play a greater role." Cohen urged.

Cohen was also helpless. Now that "cloud computing" research has reached a bottleneck, if he wants to break through the existing bottleneck, he must rely on more powerful computing power to help him simulate the calculation of "cloud computing", but today's computers can't meet Cohen's requirements at all. After thinking about it, Cohen thought of supercomputers. What's more, the games under "Second World" will use "cloud computing" to realize cross-border interconnection, allowing players from different countries around the world to play games under the same game server, so supercomputers are even more indispensable.

"Cohen, don't say that no one sells it now, even if someone sells it, we may not be able to buy it now." For a crazy scientific researcher like Cohen, Lin Feng could only tell the truth one by one.

Cohen frowned when he heard this, but without a supercomputer, his "cloud computing" would not be able to make a breakthrough, and even if he did, Lin Feng's online games would not be applicable.

Cohen pinched the bridge of his nose. For the first time, he felt the "powerlessness" of Lin Feng Company. This is the helplessness of small companies, the foundation is too shallow. If it is a super big company like "ibm", it is just a supercomputer, which can be provided to Cohen at any time.

Lin Feng sighed slightly.

"Hey, cousin, why are you so depressed? I have a solution for supercomputers." An authentic American English sounded loudly, and everyone was surprised. An American man wearing a hat and covering himself tightly walked in. After entering, he took off his hat and smiled at everyone.

"Cousin!" Cohen saw who was coming, stood up excitedly, and walked over to give him a warm hug.

Kevin. Mitnick! The world's number one hacker! ——Lin Feng has already guessed who the person is, but Kevin Mitnick appeared in the company so aboveboard. Wen Mitnick's effort to get China was completely useless, and he might face accusations from the US government, and this accusation, Lin Feng was speechless at all.

Lin Feng looked at the people in the meeting room, his eyes flickered, hesitating what to do. At this moment, Wang Meng walked in and patted Lin Feng on the shoulder lightly.

"Everyone!" Wang Meng pulled down all the curtains and whispered.

Seeing Wang Meng's serious face, everyone instinctively tightened their hearts, not knowing what happened.

"Everyone, this is Kevin Mitnick, the number one hacker in the world." Wang Meng pointed to Kevin Mitnick, who was chatting homely with Cohen.

Everyone was surprised, especially Gates and Minwu-Lee, who were quite familiar with Kevin Mitnick. The two of them just learned from their American friends that the world's number one hacker, Kevin Mitnick, had disappeared, and they were still lamenting Kevin Mitnick's supernatural powers. Unexpectedly, Kevin Mitnick appeared in the company in a blink of an eye. They thought about it and understood the mystery. However, people who are valued by the U.S. government were brought by Lin Feng to China and to the "second world". Once the U.S. government found out about this, it would definitely cause an uproar.

Thinking of this, Gates and Minwu-Lee smiled wryly. Because the two of them had already seen Kevin Mitnick appear in the "Second World", obviously in order to keep it secret, Lin Feng would not let them tell this secret. There is only one way to keep a secret forever - dead. Only the dead keep secrets forever.

However, the two of them are very important to Lin Feng and to the "Second World". Obviously, Lin Feng will not kill people to silence them. Otherwise, Kevin Mitnick would not be allowed to appear in the company in such a grand manner. Obviously, Lin Feng has only one purpose, which is to tie them to the "chariot" of the "Second World" forever, so that they will not Tell the secret.

Gates and Minwu-Li guessed right, but this is not Lin Feng's meaning, but Wang Meng's meaning. Kevin Mitnick's identity is sensitive. If he stays in China for a long time, he will be noticed by Gates and other important core personnel of the company sooner or later. Instead of taking risks at that time, it is better to tie them to the "chariot" of the "second world" now. What's more, the "Second World" does not want Gates, Minwu-Lee and others to switch to others in the future. It is just this time that everyone is bound to the "chariot" of the "Second World" for their entire lives.

"I think you are all smart people, so I won't say much. In order to protect your safety, here is a tracker, no matter where you are, you can track it. Don't worry, this will never restrict any of you. Life is free, and I won't spy on your privates. It's just for safety reasons." Wang Meng spread his hands, revealing the small tracker in his palm.

Everyone frowned for a while. Although they had already guessed the ending, they felt a little unhappy. In any case, the freedom of the people is still restricted. At least, psychologically, yes!

Cohen and Kevin Mitnick smiled. While everyone was hesitating, they each took a tracker and stuck it under their armpit. It simulated skin and micro-processing. If you don't look closely, you can't see it at all.

"That's right, I don't feel anything," said Cohen, moving a bit. He had expected this result a long time ago, and he was mentally prepared for this when he asked Lin Feng to bring Kevin Mitnick from the United States.

"Hehe, everyone, I assure you with my dignity that I'm definitely not spying on any of you, and you can go anywhere. It's just that the company will send two more bodyguards to protect you." Seeing that everyone was still slightly hesitant, Lin Feng said, Resignedly shrugging and pointing to Li Rui and the others who were waiting outside the door, he said, "Look, I still have four bodyguards by my side at any time."

When everyone saw it, they smiled. Thinking about it this way, everyone felt much better. What's more, Wang Meng has always given them the impression of being extremely strict and indifferent, and he never talks much, but what he says is always as good as his promise. He promised not to spy on everyone's body, and he definitely wouldn't if he thought about it. That being the case, everyone had no hesitation, and took a tracker from Wang Meng one after another, sticking it under their armpits. After pasting it up, I moved it a bit, and sure enough, as Cohen and Kevin Mitnick said, there was almost no feeling at all.

"Boss, you guys continue the meeting, I'll go out first." Wang Meng nodded at Lin Feng, turned and left.

"Then let me introduce again now. This is Kevin Mitnick, who will be the head of the company's newly established Network Security Department." Lin Feng pointed to Kevin Mitnick and re-introduced.

"Everyone, please take care of me in the future." Kevin Mitnick smiled easily. Being able to escape from the surveillance of the United States, Kevin Mitnick's whole body was loosened. Although in China, there are still monitors on the body, but this is not the same as the surveillance in the United States. What's more, Lin Feng promised to build a "hacking base" for him and concentrate on researching hacking techniques. He is very satisfied.

"Kevin, you said just now that you have a solution for supercomputers, what can you do?" Lin Feng asked back to the topic.

"Boss, I wonder if you've heard of E-Allen (Bruce Allen)?" Kevin Mitnick said seriously.

Lin Feng shook his head blankly, and the others also shook their heads after thinking about it.

"Hehe, no wonder you haven't heard of it. You are all engaged in software design, but Bruce Allen specializes in hardware and software." Kevin Mitnick explained with a smile.

"Boss, Bruce is a crazy computer enthusiast like me, but he is a crazy computer hardware enthusiast, and I am a crazy network technology and radio enthusiast." Kevin Mitnick smiled to everyone Explain, "As early as 1998, Bruce made three supercomputers by himself to calculate gravitational waves that had never been observed. His first supercomputer used a nux cluster, using 48 alpha servers, each Use a 300mhz, 64-bit axp processor. The server cluster is placed in a space slightly larger than a closet. The server is not even a rack, because the price of a rack system is much more expensive. The connection server uses 3 k, the speed t/s, while using an ethernet switch. Total cost $70,000”

When everyone heard it, they were stunned. $70,000 for a supercomputer? This... this is incredible.

"Hehe, his latest y (do-it-yourself) supercomputer uses 6,720 Intel Pentium 4 processors. After completion, it ranks 204th in the world's supercomputer list. And it cost him a total of 2 million Dollars." Kevin Mitnick said with admiration.

Lin Feng and the others were even more horrified when they heard this. A supercomputer that ranks 204th in the world can be made for 2 million US dollars. This person is too awesome. Of course, the operating system used by Bruce Allen's supercomputer is still commonly used in the industry, which is different from the supercomputer's own system designed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and its purpose is also different. Bruce Allen's supercomputer has a relatively simple function, but the so-called supercomputer is more versatile. Therefore, the price gap will be so large.

"Then where is he? Can he work for our company?" Lin Feng asked with bright eyes.

"Hehe, boss, he has arrived. When I left the United States, I brought him with me." Kevin Mitnick snickered.

At this time, an American who was about the same age as Kevin Mitnick walked in.

"Hi, you are Lin Feng. I have seen you in various American newspapers and magazines, but you are really young." Bruce Allen came in and looked at Lin Feng and said with a smile.

"Hello, Mr. Allen, I didn't expect you to come to our company. I'm really excited." Lin Feng stood up excitedly.

Although "Second World" is a game software company, if it can also develop hardware, it will undoubtedly make "Second World" even straighter. Moreover, its games will also be able to realize their dreams - global interconnection!

"Hehe, Mr. Lin, before I join the company, there is only one request." Bruce Allen said with a serious face.

"Tell me, Bruce, as long as I can help, I will help." Lin Feng said, patting his chest.

"Great, Mr. Lin, if you can let Ms. Marceline sing a song for my 7-year-old daughter on her birthday, I will definitely go through fire and water for Mr. Lin, no, for the boss, and I will do whatever it takes." Bruce - Allen said excitedly.

Lin Feng was taken aback.

"Hehe, boss, Bruce's daughter is a huge fan of Marceline. According to the relationship between the boss and Marceline, this shouldn't be difficult!" Kevin Mitnick explained with a smile on the side.

"It's not difficult, it's not difficult, it's very simple. It's just that Marceline is in the United States now, I'm afraid that in a short time..." Lin Feng said with a frown.

"Hehe, it's fine, as long as there is a promise from the boss. Besides, I heard that Marceline seems to be preparing for her first global concert tour. I heard that China is Miss Marceline's key country." Bruce - Allen touched the minibus and said.

When Lin Feng heard this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. It seems that Marceline this time - it's not that the Raptors don't cross the river.
