Chapter 1200: Really Inescapable

It's not just Balluch who fainted.
Over the course of a day, the incidence of heart disease in Manhattan Island increased by almost ten percent.
That gloomy and bleak stock market, like people's pessimistic expectations of the North American economy, fell like a waterfall through the last psychological line of defense.
The chain effect caused by this quickly swept the global financial markets. Like dominoes, they pushed across the Atlantic from the Pacific Ocean, and then transmitted from the stock market to the futures market ...
What does it mean if the existing cryptosystem fails?
It's not just the risk of password theft or bank runs.
It means that all financial products will lose their guarantee due to the failure of a series of algorithms such as rsa.
The first to be impacted are bitcoin and other digital cryptocurrencies. The online merchant platforms that originally opened bitcoin payment channels have closed their interfaces to bitcoin wallets, no longer support digital currency payments, and try to clear the relationship.
Following the crash was a series of financial derivatives.
Once the existing encryption rules are confirmed to be unreliable, the impact of credit-based financial markets is no less than the quantum computer's blow to Bitcoin.
In the context of the double killing of the stock market and the bond market, the entire Wall Street is bleak.
But then again.
It is they who threaten to speculate on the other side of the Pacific Ocean all day, and it is also them who transfer their domestic conflicts over there. They are the ones who throw the cyber security issue to the Chinese cyber warfare forces.
Although Hua Guo didn't do anything, and it was tantamount to provoking an information war that was not good, but this time there was no doubt that they really had the ability to win this war.
The confusion under panic is nothing but the expected fulfillment.
And this can be considered a bad result ...
At the same time, the scene of the 20th Asia-Pacific Network Information Security Summit looked from the stage to the stage.
Delegates from more than 20 countries, as well as dozens of non-profit international organizations and institutions, sat quietly in their seats, waiting for the meeting to begin.
Although the United States was absent from the meeting as it was last time, their seats were still reserved at the conference table, and even two bottles of mineral water were put on it.
Standing in front of the stage, Vice Minister Yang from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of the State of China delivered speeches on "jointly creating Internet information security" and "quantum encryption algorithms and quantum communications."
Although just a few days ago, the vast majority of attendees had casual expressions on their faces, but after experiencing the financial turmoil triggered by the United States yesterday, almost all of them roused 120. He listened attentively to every word that Vice Minister Yang said, and he was afraid to miss every detail.
The speech lasted a full fifteen minutes and finally came to the questioning session.
Vice Minister Yang paused, looked around the ladder conference room, and then gave the opportunity to ask questions to the attendees.
Soon, dozens of hands lifted up.
He randomly picked a questioner in the front row and nodded at him, signalling that he could stand up and ask a question.
"Excuse me, Mr. Yang, does the quantum encryption algorithm mean that we can solve the security risks brought by the quantum computer once and for all?"
Standing up to ask is the chairman of the International Information System Security Certification Alliance, Mr. Clake. As early as when he arrived in Shanghai, he was assessing the risks that quantum computers may pose to existing communication rules and financial order.
Changing the encryption algorithm is not an easy task, and it is true for any country and organization.
If he must change, he must at least figure out how long this algorithm can support.
"Unfortunately, the quantum encryption algorithm cannot permanently solve this problem. In essence, it still belongs to computing passwords, and is not unconditionally secure. If it is a quantum computer with more than 2000 qubits, it may take only one day to crack its password. "
Looking at the prudent Chairman of the Board, Vice Minister Yang continued.
"In order to truly solve this problem once and for all, what we need is ultimately unconditional and secure communication means. In fact, the quantum submarine cable project we are advancing is just for this purpose."
"As for the quantum encryption algorithm, its real meaning is not to solve any problem once and for all, but to help us through the chaotic period brought about by technological change and gain time."
Hearing this reply, the chairman of Clake nodded and sat back thoughtfully.
Immediately afterwards, the representative from Britain stood up and said in a skeptical tone.
"Why not strengthen the regulation of quantum computers? At least limit the scope of its use. It seems that your country has not considered it at all. Sudden disclosure of such news may have an impact on the existing Internet and financial order. Of course, I absolutely have no It is speculated that China is deliberately causing turbulence in the global financial market today, but I think everyone will have such questions ... Have you not considered that this will become the case? "
Although she said absolutely nothing, the British representative had not written the word distrust on his face.
After hearing this, the whispering voice gradually spread in the conference room.
Yesterday's financial turmoil didn't just happen in North America. Almost the whole world was hit, including even China itself. Only relatively speaking, the impact on China is probably the smallest, or even negligible.
After all, the A shares have been lying there all the time, and they haven't risen much ...
Facing the questions from the British representative and the attention of the attendees, Vice Minister Yang smiled slightly and looked at him.
"Considered, but have we reminded you?"
This sentence was addressed to the British representative, and also to the participants in the audience.
The moment he heard this sentence, the expression on the British representative's face was clearly frozen, and then a hint of embarrassment appeared. The embarrassed expressions also appeared on the faces of other participants, and looked away from Vice Minister Yang's face standing on the stage.
like……
Really reminded.
It's just that none of them take it seriously.
After all, no one expected that everything came so suddenly. The original semi-dead quantum computer technology actually made a breakthrough in key technologies in just a few months, and went directly to the stomach in computing power.
524 qubits ...
What's so special is that all the supercomputers that are not on the list are added up to form a string, and they have to be trampled into the soil. If they had known such awesome technology, how could they have desperately updated the encryption algorithm.
"As for your previous question," he paused for a moment, and Vice Minister Yang said with a slight smile. "In theory, this can indeed be done in our country. In fact, we are doing it. You can rest assured."
Hearing this sentence, the British representative felt that most of the pressure on his shoulders was relieved, and he was finally relieved.
Fortunately, the Deputy Minister Yang gave him a step down.
"We sincerely thank you for your efforts on this issue ... At the same time, we look forward to your shouldering more responsibilities. Of course, we will also cooperate with ..."
After leaving two sounding polite words, he sat back quickly.
Immediately afterwards, the representative of Japan stood up.
As soon as he stood up, he couldn't wait to ask.
"Does your country consider exporting this technology? Or, in any form of cooperation, allow quantum computers to enter the market in a free form ..."
The moment he asked the question, almost everyone at the scene had his ears raised.
Including the British representative who had just sat down, almost no knee-jerk reflex stood up again.
Facing the eager eyes of the audience, Vice Minister Yang's expression did not change much, and his tone replied as usual.
"Not for the time being, but we do not restrict quantum computers to provide non-military computing services to offshore institutions and enterprises, such as docking via satellite or submarine fiber-optic cable. If your country is interested, our company must be We are happy to discuss specific cooperation matters with your company. "
Hearing this sentence, the Japanese representative's face looked a little embarrassed.
Computing services provided by offshore servers ...
It ’s okay if it ’s just a general factory or small and medium-sized enterprises. However, for large companies such as Canon, Mitsubishi, and Toyota that have a bearing on the lifeblood of the national economy, and some laboratories involved in sensitive research, how can they confidently put their own The core competitiveness is connected to a computer located overseas.
He keenly saw the change in the expression on the face of the Japanese representative, and Vice Minister Yang did not say anything, and said with a smile.
"... Of course, nothing is absolute. After we have completed the domestic information industry reform, perhaps the semiconductor companies in Huaguo will consider their own development needs and open up foreign markets. Of course, this is pure market behavior and we will not Interfere, or even encourage them to do so! "
After hearing this, many people in the conference room took a lot of effort to resist the urge to roll their eyes.
Pure market behavior?
Ha ha.
Lie to the ghost!
However, even if they knew this, they could not do anything.
When you are behind, you will be beaten. This is the principle since ancient times. Just like the controlled nuclear fusion now, a small core makes a robber who does n’t know how poor and ferocious becomes a licking dog ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Even the Yankee Yankee has to be in Compromise on certain issues, especially in the face of starry technology's patent rogue behavior, can only helplessly, can only watch their crazy output on top of their own high-tech companies, and finally ask if East Asia Power's express can be faster The fusion reactor in Los Angeles has been waiting for too long ...
The representative of Japan just sat down, and before the next representative got up to speak, the door behind the meeting room suddenly opened.
Attendees in the staircase conference room turned back, with unexpected expressions on their faces.
No need to guess who is coming in.
There were only two empty seats and two bottles of unopened mineral water in the entire conference room.
Looking at the American representative who came into the room with a gloomy face sitting at the conference table, Vice Minister Yang gave a slight frown, and then a funny smile appeared on his face.
Did n’t you say it ’s okay?
真 It really smells so fast?
