Chapter 319: Quantum supercomputing that crushes the world

The world situation is becoming more and more complex, but no matter how the world changes, Zhang Wei can calmly deal with it, because his foundation is established, and with the resources of the future technology companies, he can even build an independent kingdom. [w.SuiMеng.lā This is not a false statement. On the moon, after more than a year of construction, a city belonging to a future technology company is almost completed.
Now, people can clearly see this space city from the earth with a telescope. This space city is called Yuancheng. It is named after Zhang Wei ’s son Zhang Yuan. The area is as big as a town and is divided into administrative areas, Residential areas, cultural areas, commercial areas and tourist areas, with large supermarkets, theaters, cinemas, concert halls, hospitals, libraries, gymnasiums and nightclubs. In short, the residents living here can enjoy everything that the inhabitants of the earth can enjoy.
However, the daily necessities here cannot be self-sufficient, and most of them need to be transported from the earth.
Even so, the world is still shocked. Many people like to watch the moon with a telescope at night, watching the space city full of science fiction form a little bit, and the more they look, the more shocked they feel. The future technology company is sincere Excellent! At present, the two great powers of the United States and Russia can only build a football-sized base on the moon with the power of the country; although Japan, India and some European countries have landed on the moon, they can only insert a few national flags, and then Leaving a few solitary robots, brazenly stated that the location of these things is their lunar base; only future technology companies and China can build a city, and China has such a strong strength, also because in the future With the help of technology companies, space technology has grown metamorphically.
On March 11, 2023, around nine o'clock in the evening.
When countless people looked at the space city on the moon and lamented that the future technology company is very powerful, in the future technology company quantum technology research base, Zhang Wei and a group of people are doing the first test of quantum computers that can subvert the whole world. .
That's right, quantum computers. After Zhang Wei joined the quantum computer research team, quantum computer research has made rapid progress. Solving bottlenecks is as simple as drinking water, which makes all researchers lament that Dr. Zhang is worthy of being recognized as a genius scientist.
In fact, the reason why the breakthrough can be achieved so quickly is because Zhang Wei had a deep knowledge of quantum technology long ago. He published a paper on quantum entanglement in the magazine in his sophomore year. He has published three papers related to quantum technology. He has studied quantum computers and quantum communications, but he has not had time to study them all the time. Now he is fully devoted to the research of quantum computers, and it is normal for Beidou and so many top scientists to help make breakthroughs. In the field of quantum technology, the only thing that makes Zhang Wei uncertain is the quantum long-distance instantaneous transmission technology that can make people move between the stars.
"Dr. Ye, open the link to the quantum computer and load it into" quantum language "and" quantum algorithm "."
Zhang Wei looked at a young researcher and told him.
Quantum computers are very different from traditional computers. Naturally, they need brand new "algorithms" and "languages", and "quantum algorithms" and "quantum languages" are tailored by Zhang Wei for quantum computers. performance.
The young researcher nodded excitedly and immediately began to operate, using the control terminal to open the quantum computer's wireless link interface, loading the already prepared data into the quantum computer, and soon a progress bar appeared on the display screen on.
Zhang Wei glanced at the progress bar, and then turned his attention to the quantum computer in the isolated computer room in front of him.
This quantum computer is a big guy, covering an area of ​​220 square meters, which is 50 square meters larger than the first electronic computer on the planet "Eniak".
The quantum computer is not only large, but also has very harsh operating conditions. This is because quantum mechanics is a science that studies the micro scale. In order to control the computer's qubits, it is actually necessary to manipulate a single atom, and the atom's speed at normal temperature can reach hundreds of meters Every second, only by keeping atoms at extremely low temperatures can they be controlled. Therefore, the temperature of the core part of the quantum computer has been stable at -273 ℃, which is only 0.015 ℃ higher than the absolute zero degree of the universe. In addition, the quantum computer has to be placed in an environment that is 50,000 times weaker than the Earth ’s magnetic field and has an atmospheric pressure 10 billion times smaller than the Earth to maintain the stability of the quantum state. From this point of view, the quantum computer can be called a princess with a delicate figure who is difficult to serve.
However, even if the princess is no longer able to serve, Zhang Wei and others must satisfy "her", because the birth of "her" is as important to humans as the birth of the world's first electronic computer "Eniac" .
"Beep!"
After a while, the prompt sounded, Zhang Wei glanced at the progress bar and found that it had been read.
"Everyone, test immediately."
Zhang Wei rubbed his palm and looked a little excited.
The other researchers immediately mobilized to make the major instruments connected to the quantum computer work, and the quantum computer started to work.
Over time, Zhang Wei and others' eyes became brighter and brighter ...
"Haha, it succeeded! It succeeded! Dr. Zhang, we succeeded!"
"23% ... 39 ... 73% ... 98% ... The quantum computer's calculation speed reached 98% of the theoretical peak speed!
"We have made a true general-purpose quantum computer, not a pseudo-quantum computer optimized by Dwa ~ ve based on simulated annealing algorithm!"
"We have witnessed the birth of the first quantum computer in human history!"
The researchers looked at the test results displayed on the screen, their eyes were round, and they cheered loudly in excitement. This usually quiet and serious place was instantly overwhelmed by cheers.
Zhang Wei couldn't help but feel a little excited. The test passed, which means that he really succeeded, without wasting his months of hard work!
If other scientists working on quantum computers knew his thoughts at this time, there would be an impulse to vomit blood. Knowing that they had studied for decades, they did not even see the hope of success.
After a few minutes, the researchers were quiet, but the smile on their faces could not be concealed.
"Everyone has worked hard for the past few months."
Zhang Wei's eyes were swept across the researchers' faces, with a smile on his face, saying, "In our company, as much contribution as possible, there will be great rewards. Your efforts and your contributions will be worth the money. . Now I announce that all members of the quantum computer research team can receive a two million prize, a three-bedroom house on the moon, a villa on Mars, and ... a D-200 potion! "
D-200 agent is a castrated version of the second-generation genetic evolution solution. It has all the properties of the second-generation genetic evolution solution, but it can only extend the lifespan of people to 200 years old. Similar agents include D-250, D300 ... Every 50 years of lifespan is a grade, specifically used to reward core employees who contribute to future technology companies. The greater the contribution, the more extended lifespan!
However, the D-200 series of pharmacy is the core secret of the future technology company. Only the employees who have been rewarded have the right to know, and it must be kept strictly confidential, even family members cannot tell!
Therefore, these researchers do not know what the D-200 agent means.
At this moment, Zhang Wei explained briefly and told the researchers that D-200 agent is the second generation of genetic evolution fluid. Compared with the first generation of genetic evolution fluid, its performance has been greatly improved, such as Saying that they can adapt to different gravitational forces on various planets, on average, people can have 12 times the physique of ordinary people. The most important thing is that they can live to 200 years old!
The researchers' breathing was suddenly rapid, and their eyes were shining. These four rewards, one is more precious than one, especially the D-200 potion! The 12 times the physique of ordinary people means that they can avoid the rifle bullets at a distance of 200 meters like Ye Chen, the world's hottest "strongest man in history". This is Superman! And being able to live to 200 years old means that they have added another 50 years of life! This is 50 years! How many emperors in ancient China could not prolong their lives for one year, but they suddenly had 50 more years!
Researchers are thrilled and joining the future technology company is the wisest choice they have made in their lifetime! High income, high social status, good welfare, and unlimited future! Not long ago, I injected the first generation of genetic evolution fluid, which extended my lifespan to 150 years, and now I extend my lifespan to 200 years. If I continue to contribute to the company, maybe I can extend my lifespan to 1,000 years?
Thinking of this, the researchers' eyes are red, and they secretly say that they must stay in the company, work hard, and grow together with the company!
Zhang Wei saw this scene, and the smile on his face was even stronger. The future technology company now has more than 350,000 employees, which are basically the elites of the elite. They are rare talents. For talents, he has always been very generous. Because the future technology company has grown into a huge technology empire, without the support of excellent talents, this empire cannot run. And relative to the value they create, the rewards they receive are actually not worth mentioning.
Take quantum computers, what do quantum computers mean? This means a great change, as long as 80 qubits can be placed in a controlled superposition state related to each other, the peak computing power of the quantum computer can reach the 2nd power of 80, which is equivalent to the current global computing power. Sum.
And so much computing power can bring too much change to the world.
The simplest application is to provide a more accurate weather forecast. Most of the current weather forecast is based on speculation based on detection data, and sometimes it is quite unreliable. For a whole week, every day said showers, moderate rains, and light rain, but a drop of rain was not seen. But quantum computers can analyze all the data at once, providing us with a better model to accurately show when and where severe weather will occur.
In addition, quantum computers can play an unparalleled role in all scientific fields that require computing, such as artificial intelligence, geological research, space exploration, genetic engineering, and scientific theory verification. Originally, it took one year to calculate results with supercomputers. It only takes a few seconds now. Think about it, how much help will this bring to scientific research? There is no doubt that it will become a powerful propellant for the development of human science, and all research projects of future technology companies will benefit from it! For example, in the virtual world project, as long as there is a quantum computer, it is not necessary to prepare tens of thousands of supercomputers for this!
However, the current quantum computer is not so powerful, because it can only put 40 qubits in a controlled superposition state that is related to each other, that is, the peak computing power is only 2 to the 40th power, It is not comparable to China's "Shenwei Taihu Light" supercomputer. But this does not mean that the quantum computer project has failed. The world ’s first electronic computer "Eniac" has a calculation speed of about 5,000 times per second. It is not as fast as the ordinary calculator; the world ’s first A steam-powered train has a speed of only 5 to 6 kilometers per hour, which is much slower than riding a horse; the world's first aircraft also stayed in the air for only 12 seconds, flying about 36.6 meters.
However, history has proved how great the potential of these inventions is, and so is the quantum computer. Zhang Wei is confident that the quantum computer will be developed to 50 qubits within two months. By then, its computing power will surpass the world's top 500 The sum of all supercomputers! Over time, the computing power of quantum computers will only get better and better!
The next day.
Quantum technology research base.
"This is a quantum computer? What a big chunk."
Qin Xiaobu curiously said.
Liu Hai and Zhang Zhijian watched on the side, also curious.
"The first electronic computer is also quite large, covering an area of ​​170 square meters, but now it is about the size of a watch, and quantum computers will develop to this stage in the future."
Zhang Wei self-channel.
The three of Qin Xiaobu nodded and agreed that this is the trend of technological development.
"I have read the relevant information, as long as the quantum computer develops to 80 qubits, it can crush the sum of all computers in the world. In the face of such terrible computing power, the current RSA encryption algorithm is vulnerable to all encryption. The information will be cracked by the simplest brute force method. Anyone who owns a quantum computer can crack the encrypted data of banks, governments, military and enterprises in minutes or even seconds. So, I think there is no Until you are ready, this thing cannot be put on the market and can only be used by us, otherwise it will cause a disaster. "
Liu Hai said solemnly.
"Of course, the good things must be used by ourselves first. Within a few years, the quantum computer will not be put on the market, and our company will not lose that money. After a few years, we will only launch backward. One or two generations of products. In addition, the problem you are worried about is actually not a problem at all. Quantum technology itself is the best encryption method. Quantum cannot be cloned, so the key made by quantum technology is not replicable and is absolutely safe. Yes, even if the data is unfortunately captured by a hacker, because the quantum state will be changed during the measurement process ~ EbookFREE.me ~ what the hacker stolen will be meaningless data. "
Zhang Wei paused, and the topic changed.
I ’m not here to talk to you about quantum computers. It ’s a virtual world project. The quantum computer succeeded earlier than I expected, which means we can rely on The huge computing power of quantum computers completes the construction of the virtual world in advance, and the virtual world plan we formulated at the time must be advanced accordingly. "
Liu Haiwen nodded his head. With a quantum computer, the virtual world can indeed be released in advance!
"How long can it be in advance?"
Qin Xiaobu asked.
"It may be advanced to February or March next year, that is to say, after the Spring Festival holiday, the virtual world will be almost available."
Zhang Wei said with some expectation.
Liu Hai, Qin Xiaobu, and Zhang Zhijian could not help but expect it. The virtual world project is a gold mine that will never be dug for future technology companies! Because the virtual world is the ultimate form of the Internet, even if technology develops for thousands of years, the virtual world cannot be replaced!
