Chapter 196: God Lu, whether Tianhe can survive depends on you!
Xia Guangming brought his team to the conference, but found that the foreigners ignored them completely. Their eyes were full of contempt and their faces were full of disdain, which made Xia Guangming immediately furious.
Where is the so-called Western gentleman's etiquette? No manners at all. After all, I am a guest!
The Tianhe computer project team also came and was furious.
At the meeting, Xia Guangming reported on the development of semiconductors and computers in Xia country, mentioned the performance data of Tianhe-1, mentioned Lu Shan's paper results, and mentioned that platinum-tin-iron alloy memory sticks have been put into production.
After the report was finished, there was sparse applause in the meeting hall. Xia Guangming was very confused. What was going on? Didn't these people have ears? Couldn't they understand the value of this?
It was only after subsequent developments that Xia Guangming understood the reason.
The reports from many countries first introduced their own country's development, and then began to make sarcastic comments about Xia Country's achievements. Even though no names were mentioned, everyone knew they were talking about Xia Country.
It mainly focuses on two points.
The first point is the Tianhe supercomputer.
The United States took the lead, saying that all the configurations of the Tianhe computer came from the United States.
To be precise, except for the outer shell and frame which are from Xia country, everything else is from the West. Take a look at the configurations, including chips, memory, hard drive, and motherboard.
American experts even joked: "Xiaguo used American computer components to assemble a relatively powerful computer, which shows that the chips, graphics cards, motherboards, and memory produced in the United States have excellent performance!"
This joke caused laughter from the whole audience, but the joke was not over yet.
"Xia Guo has been busy for so long, but still hasn't achieved very good results. It would be better to use this energy to create more original works. How can you surpass others by just copying others' works? Just look at the rankings and you will know."
IBM's "Roadrunner" deployed at the Los Alamos National Laboratory of the . Department of Energy ranked first in the world, with a peak performance of 1456 teraflops and a Linpack measured speed of 1105 teraflops.
The Tianhe-4 can only be ranked fourth in the world.
If the first place says the fourth place is not good enough, the fourth place has to accept it!
In addition to this, the United States also specifically mentioned academic fraud.
Although Lu Shan's paper was rejected by Advanced Materials, the news that Xia Guo's Lu Shan had developed topological semimetal semiconductor materials had spread throughout the country, and now it has been classified as plagiarizing the University of Pennsylvania.
In the eyes of the whole world, Lu Shan has not produced any materials at all, and the news that it has entered the production stage is fake news.
Xia Guangming then realized that these foreigners didn't believe what he said at all, and he didn't even think of bringing a memory stick for testing when he came.
In Xia Guangming's mind, he didn't intend to tell a lie, and the memory sticks made of new materials would be released sooner or later, so there was no need to bring one over.
Fortunately, Xia Guangming did not take it, otherwise he would have been slandered by the foreigners on the spot as stealing the product of someone else's laboratory.
"I have something to say! The new material has been produced and is currently being used internally on a large scale. Lu Shan's plagiarism issue has been discussed a long time ago, and the University of Pennsylvania cannot produce any results. Lu Shan's results have specific experimental data, but you have been avoiding talking about it..."
Xia Guangming was still explaining when he was interrupted by the host: "Today there is only a speaking session, no debate session. Please pay attention to the venue discipline."
It seemed that this was correct, but then came the trouble. The teams from Western countries seemed to have discussed it beforehand, and everyone said the same thing, with similar content. Xia Guangming and his team felt very uncomfortable and extremely angry.
After finally waiting until the speeches were over and it was time for the supplementary speeches, Xia Guangming, who had been patient for a whole day, was about to go up and make a few remarks. At this time, the Westerners left the stage and refused to listen at all.
The members of the Xia State delegation were extremely angry. The usually well-mannered scientific researchers cursed out all the dirty words they had ever known in their lives. At this time, Xia Guangming calmed down instead.
"Everyone, be quiet, stop cursing and arguing, let's go back!"
"But these people are so shameless, aren't they? They invited us to a meeting just to humiliate us?!"
"My grass is so green..."
"I really want to beat them up!"
Xia Guangming suppressed his anger at this time: "I thought they invited us here for friendly exchanges this time, it seems we thought too much."
Xia Guangming laughed at himself and said, "Swearing won't solve the problem. What can solve the problem is our scientific and technological system! It's our achievements and products! Go back! Promote the new materials! Seize their market and make them lower their posture and come to us for help!"
"Okay! Next time, I'll make sure these people invite us in a grand ceremony!"
"That's right! We won't take the elevator even if there is one, we have to let them carry us up!"
After a few words, the atmosphere was temporarily adjusted. This group of elites returned to Xia Country and began to work hard on research and development and produce results.
Xia Guangming was the most angry. If he was not the team leader, his reaction would have been even more intense.
He returned to Xia Country with a rage, and immediately took his team to find Lu Shan to ask about Lu Shan's progress.
"How are the two materials?" Xia Guangming did not return to Yanjing, but returned to Jiangzhou. After getting off the plane, he went directly to Lu Shan's workshop.
Lu Shan spoke frankly: "Platinum-tin-iron alloy materials can already be mass-produced, and the cost has been reduced a lot. If you want to improve the performance, just increase the content of platinum metal.
The preparation process of copper-tin-iron alloy has also been perfected, and the cost is very low, so it can be mass-produced for civilian use.”
"When can I do it?"
"About ten days ago."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier!" "You didn't ask, and besides, we need to produce it for a little longer to see if there are any mistakes. I can now confirm that both formulas are completely fine."
"Can we do the test now?"
"sure!"
"it is good!"
Xia Guangming immediately called the team, and more than a dozen people came into the factory. They immediately turned on the equipment in their hands and prepared to do the test.
This situation caught Lu Shan off guard: "Dean Xia, there are so many of you, what's going on?"
Xia Guangming still suppressed his emotions at this time: "I'll explain it later, let's test it first."
The equipment was quickly set up, and Lu Shan took out a copper-tin-iron alloy memory card. Lu Shan explained: "This one is made of copper-tin-iron alloy. You haven't tested it."
The team immediately inserted the memory into the motherboard, held their breath and began testing.
"So fast!" After turning on the computer, the tester immediately opened multiple threaded tasks and opened all kinds of software as if he was running wild. The task bar at the bottom of the computer screen was filled with small grids.
“It doesn’t lag! What kind of performance is this?”
Lu Shan smiled without saying anything and let them test it themselves.
In order to find the best test performance, the toxic milk powder was given several numbers, and it still worked well with so many numbers.
Then a few more WOWs were opened, and Lu Shan saw that these testers were quite up to date.
Little do people know that many gaming masters are actually these people. Sometimes they play games for entertainment, but for ordinary players, it is like a disaster.
The test results came out quickly. The memory sticks produced were each 16G in size and had a read and write speed that was five times the current speed.
The read speed of Profit is 70000MB/s, the write speed is 650000MB/S, the energy consumption is , and the weight is more than half lighter than the existing one. It is all black and green, and looks very mysterious and atmospheric.
This means that the read and write speeds of the memory have exceeded the maximum read and write speeds between the motherboard and the chip, which can maximize the performance of the chip and motherboard.
The current common chips and motherboard configurations cannot measure the maximum memory speed.
"This is incredible! So fast!"
Xia Guangming became more and more excited. He kept a trace of rationality and asked Lu Shan: "This performance is almost catching up with the performance of the platinum-tin-iron alloy material given to us before. Is it really a copper-tin-iron alloy material?"
"It is indeed a memory stick made of copper-tin-iron alloy. As for platinum-tin-iron alloy, I can maintain the original performance while greatly reducing the platinum metal content." Lu Shan nodded.
Lu Shan hasn't told Xia Guangming yet that the cost of testing the copper-tin-iron alloy just now was only more than 20 yuan per piece. If they knew the cost was so low, these people would definitely go crazy.
"That's great! It's really great!" Xia Guangming walked around excitedly for a few times, and his anger finally came out.
Looking at Lu Shan's puzzled expression, Xia Guangming told him all the humiliations he had suffered in the United States, and the members who went to the meeting together also continued to perfect the details.
Everyone became more and more excited as they talked. Talking about the humiliation they had experienced at that time again was like opening a scar. Experiencing the feeling of humiliation once again, how could they not be angry?
"This is really good. The new material can be mass-produced, and we have enough evidence! I have already reported to the higher-ups, hoping that the memory of the Tianhe computer can use the platinum-tin-iron version of BanSi Materials' products. The total memory capacity is 98TB, so you'd better hurry up and produce it! As for the selling price, please calculate it and tell me!" Xia Guoshan couldn't wait any longer.
98TB! If platinum-tin-iron is used, the cost will be more than 50 million! Even if I earn 75%, I can still get yuan.
The profit of 50% is already very conscientious in the computer industry. Look at the products sold by foreigners, the profit is more than 500%!
Just when he was thinking that his mission in the Heroic Spirit Space was about to be completed, Lu Shan remembered his promise - not to earn money from the country.
So he quoted a cost price of 160 million, of which 150 million was for materials, and the extra 10 was for labor, equipment wear and tear, electricity, transportation... Lu Shan was a boss and he always had to calculate these costs.
"Ah? So cheap? Won't you lose out? Really, don't use it. The country won't treat you unfairly."
"It's the cost price, so I won't lose money."
"Let me add a little more. Enterprises need to develop healthily."
If other people saw this scene, they would definitely be shocked. The seller would try his best to lower the price, and the buyer would try to increase the price.
It's not Xia Guangming's fault. In the past, he had bought memory from abroad and it cost millions. Now when he heard such a low price, he knew that Lu Shan must have chosen it out of love.
"I have my own principles. I am not interested in money!"
There is only one Tianhe computer, so what’s the point of making hundreds of thousands of dollars?
It would be better to use it to build relationships, gain more political profits, and serve future business interests.
This is Lu Shan’s plan.
However, Lu Shan's decisiveness made others immediately regard him as a god, and his entire image was elevated.
