Technological Supremacy Chapter 390: A poisonous trick from the CIA!
"I protest!"
"You are interfering with academic freedom!"
"Don't bring those dirty things in politics to our academic world!"
In a luxury hotel suite, Mr. David Patterson, the winner of the Turing Award and the contemporary master in the field of processor architecture, was shouting at two men in black suits.
Mr. David is an important scholar in the global computer field. It is obviously inappropriate to rashly bring such a person to the CIA office, so just like in many spy war movies, Mr. David was taken to the office in the city. Luxurious hotel in the center and very cared for.
There has never been an impenetrable wall in the world. Mr. David's plan to join hands with Xingchen Technology to develop RISC-V architecture processors has been exposed to the eyes of the West, so today's scene will be staged.
"I used to think that as a scholar engaged in the research of CPU infrastructure, and I still have a considerable social status, I should not be restricted anymore, and I can do the research I am interested in according to my inner thoughts."
Mr. David muttered. He looked up, looked at the middle-aged man in a black suit opposite the coffee table, and said with a wry smile: "Unfortunately, I was wrong. You guys have even extended your black hands to the academic world! RISC-V architecture CPU If it is completed, no matter the operating speed, peak bandwidth, or logical processing unit, it will be far behind the X86 architecture, and it will be the strongest general-purpose processor on earth!"
"The ancient X86 architecture has dominated the desktop and server fields for decades! Back then, it did represent the highest level of technology in the world. Exhausted, if we don't iterate as soon as possible and introduce a new architecture for the next era, X86 will hinder the progress of the entire human race!"
Mr. David said with righteous indignation, and at the same time picked up the hotel's ink pen and sticky note, quickly scribbled on it, and drew a picture of the computing unit of the Star Technology holographic imaging system.
The computing unit is in a huge cabinet, with built-in 512 top graphics cards from Nvidia, 512 fastest Intel Xeon CPUs, 512 sets of star decoders, and logic algorithm chips , superimposed graphics accelerator and so on.
"Have you ever seen the holographic projection system of Star Technology?" Mr. David said with a bit of envy: "I saw it in Paris, it was a dreamlike world, stars and sea, and a magnificent space , everything is in front of me, and those are my lifelong dreams.”
"If this holographic system is put into large-scale use, it will completely change human audio-visual audio-visual, and even change human cognition. However, the computing bottleneck of X86 hinders the popularization of holographic projection, and the cost is too high Therefore, Star Technology had to manufacture an industrial-grade image processing unit to drive the entire system.”
Anyone who has played games knows that if you want to run a 3A masterpiece, you have to spend money to buy a graphics card, because graphics is a thing that requires computing power, and the graphics card and CPU must be powerful. If necessary, you can use more Line parallelism, overload acceleration and more.
The computing power required for holographic projection is more than a thousand times higher than that of 3A masterpieces. In order to complete the image processing, Star Technology had to build an expensive graphics array.
Since the cost of graphics arrays is too high, so far, holographic projection technology has only been used in the flagship stores of the three major automobile manufacturers around the world for image display.
Mr. David said impassionedly, thinking that the computing power of the X86 architecture has entered a bottleneck, which hinders Star Technology from launching a black technology that changes the world.
This is not entirely true. Xingchen Technology is not short of money. Even if the cost of graphics array is hundreds of millions, Luo Jia can completely afford it. The reason why it does not promote large-scale popularization is because Luo Jia is a thief I want the three major Chinese automakers to monopolize the holographic projection technology, arouse the attention of public opinion, and make a big show of it.
After all, the automobile industry is the largest industry in the world, with an annual output value of more than ten trillion U.S. dollars. In order to help partners sell more cars and help them defeat the unprecedentedly powerful Toyota and Volkswagen, these are all necessary means.
Generally speaking, Mr. David is an idealist. He and Luo Jia have the same taste. Driving systems, all of which require massive amounts of computing power.
So, Mr. David and Luo Jia hit it off and planned to develop a more advanced RISC-V architecture, which will benefit all mankind and lead the earth into a new era of next-generation supercomputing and so on.
The official from the CIA was obviously very disgusted by the face of an intellectual like Mr. David. He unbuttoned his white shirt, waved at Mr. David, and signaled him to shut up.
"Show him." The official ordered.
Afterwards, a CIA agent came with a ThinkPad laptop. Mr. David was slightly taken aback. He remembered that it should be a Chinese brand. That's right.
But Mr. David changed his mind and quickly figured it out. It is worthy of the conscience of the US emperor. Even the CIA didn't think of someone as an outsider.
Suppressing and guarding against Huawei is because Huawei has technology, which makes North America jealous, and a certain technology that wants to have a fart, all they have is a loyalty and a global headquarters in North America.
As the ThinkPad notebook started playing the video, Mr. David's expression quickly froze, from anger to shock, and then from shock to frustration. By the end of the video, his face was ashen, like a dumb chicken gargoyle.
Crack~
The official gently closed the laptop, coughed twice on purpose, "Don't worry, you should think about it again."
"Don't think about it anymore." Mr. David quickly replied, he lowered his head, his eyes were no longer as sharp as before, "I really never thought that the dignified CIA would threaten my daughter..."
"Tomorrow, tomorrow I will terminate the cooperation with Xingchen Technology, so you should be satisfied."
There was no anger in the voice, it was more like resignation to fate.
Human beings are not born perfect, and everyone has weaknesses. Mr. David's weakness is his only daughter, the single mother who was abandoned by a scumbag and raised her seven-year-old son alone.
Although in North America, the divorce rate has already exceeded 50%, and single mothers are very common, Mr. David still has deep self-blame. If he is not obsessed with work and neglects education, his daughter may not Be seduced by that scumbag.
The video the CIA showed Mr. David was simple. His daughter was shopping in the supermarket with the children. They bought a box of frozen Alaskan white shrimp, a can of maple syrup, and a ten-pound bag of dog food. For the golden retriever at home, a large bag of toilet paper with a 50% discount...
The camera clearly followed David's daughter's family. If it was not a threat, even a fool would not believe it.
The official looked at Mr. David with satisfaction, then shook his head slightly and said, "No, you don't need to terminate the cooperation with Xingchen Technology."
Mr. David was stunned for a moment, showing a confused expression, "Aren't you keeping me here just to stop Xingchen Technology from developing its own CPU architecture and instruction set!?"
The official laughed~IndoMTL.com~It would be too cheap for those Chinese people if we just stop it. ! "
"Not only can you not quit, but you have to spare no effort to help them complete the architecture design. CIA computer experts will assist you in the background. You must turn the independent CPU of Xingchen Technology into a time bomb!"
"Then, I'm going to humiliate them!"
"They need to spend astronomical research and development funds, use tens of thousands of semiconductor engineers, and in the end, only develop a garbage that is ridiculed by the whole world!"
Hahaha~
The official laughed happily. For Xingchen Technology, time is the most precious thing. After painstaking research and development, they only got a piece of garbage in the end. The pride of the tough guy group has always been followed by this sinister plan implementation and cease to exist.
"You... you are so vicious..." Mr. David said in shock.
