Chapter 289: [From the land to the sea floor]

Latest website: Intel did not feel any crisis for this "resurgent" challenger, but Inte is not indifferent to this. Everyone is blatantly invading your territory, peering into the hinterland of Intel ’s chip kingdom, of course Can't stand it.
So, the day after the news was announced, an Intel vice president of engineering responded to the matter with an unceremonious post on the international MicroBlog:
"A turkey you bought didn't turn into a phoenix."
This sentence was not named, but an Intel executive sent this sentence at this time.
Obviously, this is not difficult to interpret.
The technology media also quickly reported the incident. As for the French Riviera, there was no response to such a mockery of Intel, and Luo Sheng is busy climbing the technology. How can I freely force Intel's people online? .
In the following days, Luo Sheng gradually began to pull out of the company's daily operation and management, and quickly completed the merger and reorganization of Sony's Cell business. In the future, it may be difficult for the high-tech industry to acquire foreign companies. .
Because the general environment is quietly reversing, Luo Sheng is taking one step and three steps. After the financial crisis, in the next ten years, China will officially enter a decade of "super-British rush to the United States" taking off.
At the same time, the attention of Americans has also continuously shifted from the Middle East to the Asia-Pacific region. To be precise, the degree of targeting the Chinese nation is better than that one year at a time.
The so-called gun hits the bird.
The two technology giant groups created by Luo Sheng can now be said to be postcards of Huaguo Technology, which is harvesting profits worldwide and expanding.
There is no need to think and have no illusions. Once the Americans find that they cannot afford to play, they will inevitably play a hooligan. The first one will definitely start with these two companies, and the suppression will definitely come on schedule.
Of course, Luo Sheng will not choose to wait and see. The overseas market will definitely face many problems in the future, but there is an old saying that there is no way to go.
After the financial crisis, the consumption power of the Greater China market began to fully erupt. This is a supermarket with a population of 1.3 billion. Its explosive power is shocking and exciting.
Right now, at the end of 2008, China ’s Internet users officially exceeded 300 million, and the growth rate soared in a double-digit scale. In another year or so, new Internet users will add another 100 million. On the order of magnitude of horror, the Internet in this country is moving toward the fast lane of rapid prosperity.
There is no doubt that Luo Sheng's next strategic layout is to gradually tilt its focus from overseas to the mainland. If the overseas market occupied 80% of the focus in the past, then Luo Sheng hopes to achieve a balance between the mainland market and the overseas market. About 50% each, the Mainland may be heavier.
The fundamental shift of strategic focus is to improve one's ability to resist strikes.
We do not expect the worst to happen, but we must plan for the worst. Assuming that the business in the overseas market has suffered a severe setback, we can withstand the huge scale of the mainland market.
The core issue is the "spare tire plan". Not only must we break through the comprehensive technical blockade of foreigners in the future, but we must also surpass and occupy the commanding heights of science and technology. As long as we can ensure this, the ultimate winner must be ourselves and China.
Immediately after the trip to Japan, Luo Sheng returned to China and began to be a shopkeeper, and took out to be fully responsible for climbing technology. The daily operations of the Blue Coast were handed to Yao Jianhong, and Blue Star Technology was handed to Zhang Bowen.
Now with the assistance of artificial intelligence Cortana, Luo Sheng can go to the company and learn about the latest situation of the two companies anytime, anywhere.
Cortana regularly reports to him on the situation of the two companies every week.
...
Today is an odd number of days in a week. Luo Sheng is in Qin Weimu's private mansion, and even number is in Irene's side. This situation has lasted for more than two months. It seems that the two women have reached a tacit agreement.
Since that time they met in the Science and Technology Complex, they have basically not seen each other. At that time, the two women did not break through the last layer of paper, but there is no difference if they do not break through.
Luo Sheng tried to accomplish the feat of "unifying the great cause," but found it too difficult, so he temporarily gave up the idea.
Eat rice bite by bite.
Their repulsion against each other seems to be two parallel lines that cannot be intersected. It is just like the theory of relativity and quantum mechanics in the physical world. Anyone who tries to unify the two cornerstones of modern physics finally touches his nose.
But it's actually pretty good to keep it now.
At night, Luo Sheng coming out of the bathroom came to the bedroom: "Baby, it is very important to give you a new task at work."
Qin Weimu: "Say it."
Luo Sheng came to the side of the bed and sat down next to her, stroking the long, white and beautiful legs and sliding back and forth thoughtfully, "You set out to set up a venture capital fund, this is a strategic investment fund "It only invests in the GEM of the emerging technology industry. The early stage is mainly related to semiconductors. It does not enter the Blue Coast or Blue Star Technology. The funding source of this investment fund is obtained from our family fund."
It is not advisable to go it alone, the efficiency is too slow, and the technology blockade from foreign countries may come faster than expected. Being a strategic investor and supporting the entire industry chain is the best way to go. Lead a group of younger brothers to fly together and play the role of "Leader of Wulin" in this arena.
Qin Weimu asked: "How much is the first injection?"
Luo Sheng thought for a while and said, "Let's start with about 20 billion yuan, and we will definitely add one after another."
Qin Weimu took note of this in his heart, and then tilted his head and glanced at Luo Sheng: "There is nothing else, and there will be another tomorrow. The palace is short, let's sleep."
Luo Sheng froze for a moment, and said solemnly, "Observe!"
...
The next day, Qin Weimu set out to establish this strategic venture capital fund. She was taking care of the family funds, and this kind of work was also handy for her.
During this period, Luo Sheng left the city with a group of Bluestar Technology Group's cloud computing team technicians. This time, he will take another trip, but not abroad, but to the sea.
He brought a technical team on a huge private luxury yacht to the coast of the East China Sea, about 12 nautical miles from the coast of the Yangtze River Delta.
"Boss, what are you going to bring us to this place?" An accompanying engineer couldn't help but asked curiously. Most of the company's R & D personnel and engineers used this title, and few people called him what he was. of.
Luo Sheng looked at the endless coastline, at this time some staff were busy, several sailors and technicians were debugging the submersible device.
"Of course I'm not here for sightseeing. I want to sink the future super data center into the sea."
As soon as this word came out, the accompanying engineers couldn't help but be taken aback.
Put the data center on the ocean floor?
Is this brain hole a bit big?
Luo Sheng said with a smile: "To build a very large data center on the ocean floor, you should go to the movie" Pirates of the Caribbean "several times, because engineers will have to resist the mermaid attack like a sailor."
Of course, this is a joke, everyone also heard the meaning.
As you can imagine, there are various challenges to deploying a data center under the sea.
A researcher next to Luo Sheng murmured: "... The foundation must be established, broadband must be provided, and a destructive hybrid approach of electricity and water must be provided. Maintaining a submarine data center is definitely a nightmare for engineers. . "
Luo Sheng nodded and said, "Yes, I was thinking when the company entered the field of cloud computing. The data center is best not to be far from the population's place of residence, and does not need to occupy land resources. I want to go to the bottom of the sea. It ’s a good choice. There are many difficulties. Do n’t think about it. We are doing things that were not before, and the Americans have never done it. We can only explore it by ourselves, but it is worth our time to invest in researching new solutions. Come."
There is no doubt that to sink the data center to the ocean floor, technical difficulties must be overcome, but there are many reasons or benefits worthy of this.
First, a large amount of available "land" has not been utilized, and these lands are free, while land on land is limited, and land in big cities is even more expensive.
Second, tidal energy can use the movement of the ocean to generate carbon neutral electricity, and this natural resource is also free.
Third, cooling. The
hot aisle
is a huge cost for each data center. This has been proven by the dozens of large data centers currently being built or completed by Bluestar Technology Group. There are air-cooled areas, but this is only suitable for mild climates. If it is more extreme, a cooler is needed. Sea water is cold, and if it can be pumped to the right place to take heat away, it can provide ample cooling.
Fourth, the bandwidth, the backbone of the Internet and each global cloud are located on the ocean floor, and those pipelines connected to the ocean can reduce the delay caused by data packets.
Fifth, the population distribution. The vast majority of the world's population generally lives near the coast, and most cities are near the coast. China has a long coastline. The data center needs to be as close to the population as possible and choose to sink into the coast. The benefits of the seabed are self-evident.
The last point is that it can be quickly redeployed, with data centers dedicated to computer and storage payloads. When replacing the payload, demolition and reconstruction are usually cheaper, because it does not require too much expensive land expenses. If the subsea system solution is done, Bluestar Technology Group will undoubtedly change the calculation and storage faster. world.
The group company's layout planning in the field of cloud computing is ten years from now. This large-scale data center is just the beginning. In the future, more than 200 data centers will be built globally.
The cost of this is extremely exaggerated.
In addition to the submarine data center, there are other solutions that are tailored to local conditions. For example, in the subsequent construction of the data center, the European side can take full advantage of the free air conditioning provided by the Arctic Circle instead of requiring expensive electricity bills in exchange for air conditioning. Air-conditioning ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Bluestar Technology's subsequent data center construction is also catching up. For example, the 17th data center will be opened in Finland next year, and the 18th data center is still in Europe. The exact location choice The big cities are near the Arctic Circle.
All this is to reduce construction costs, make it easier for these infrastructures to use local renewable natural energy to power, and even improve performance.
But the key solution is the submarine data center. The population on the planet is also concentrated in the coastal areas. The necessity of the submarine data center is self-evident.
Once the technical problems are overcome, the data center can be deployed in any coastal area around the world. There is almost no customization required. It is OK to throw it down. Of course, this is just a simple and crude description. In fact, to achieve this goal requires A considerable number of innovative technologies provide support, including marine technology, materials, and more.
Luo Sheng is also enough to fight. Today, not only is he freed from the daily tedious operation and management of the two companies to lead the technology development, but for the new generation of computing and storage, they are fighting from the land to the sea floor.
