Technology Bigshot

Today is a day worth remembering, because the world's first super quantum computer will be officially born today.

The CEO of D-Wave Canada, Fern Brownell, personally came to the headquarters of Matrix Technology to participate in the inauguration ceremony of the first quantum supercomputing "L". The current Fern Brownell can be described as a deadbeat It has become a well-known bigwig in the technology circle. D-Wave's market value of more than 380 billion US dollars is just like a dream. Matrix Technology also made a fortune from D-Wave.

At this moment, hundreds of reporters gathered in front of the lobby on the first floor of the "L" shaped building of the headquarters cluster, and the inauguration ceremony of the quantum supercomputing "L" is about to begin. And in the basement at the bottom of the building, a group of staff members are arranging the arrangement nervously and orderly. Ren Hong is also here. This is an emergency energy backup room.

The temperature inside this enclosed space broke through zero. Ren Hong and a group of staff members were wearing isolation suits. At this time, two staff members came here pushing a metal object in the shape of a matrix. A staff member quickly clicked on the display panel, and a regular hexagonal hatch immediately appeared on the wall. The interior was a hollow shape, which was roughly just enough to embed this huge metal object inside. Soon, the metal object was brought to the hatch. stop before.

Ren Hong turned around, and the staff behind him opened the exquisite lockbox in his hands. Inside was a dazzling purple crystal, which was the Ziyuan spar, with a diameter of 6.8 cm and a length of 21 cm. It had eight faces, namely the upper and lower Two congruent hexagons and six congruent rectangles.

Ren Hong took out this cylindrical-shaped purple source crystal and came to the huge metal object. There was a special groove with an equihexagon on the side, which just matched this purple source crystal. Ren Hong took the purple crystal Embedded in the groove, the crystal quickly penetrated into the metal object and then closed. After a while, the whole body of this huge metal object began to emit a halo.

This metal object is a large energy matrix. Obviously, this small amethyst crystal is used as an emergency backup energy source. This stone can carry the high-energy power consumption of the entire building for a month. Demand, the reason why the energy matrix is ​​set so large is because it will become a permanent closed state, and it will not be opened again unless irresistible factors occur, and it will be connected with the energy supply system of the entire building at that time. If an accident occurs, the backup energy system here will be activated. When the Amethyst crystal consumes energy due to an emergency, when the accident is resolved, the external energy will automatically recharge it to ensure that it is in a state of peak energy around the clock.

The energy matrix weighing more than 400 kilograms was embedded in the huge groove in the wall, and then the hatch was tightly sealed.

"Let's go!" said Ren Hong, who had taken care of everything.

At the same time, in the lobby on the first floor above, the inauguration ceremony is about to begin. Gao Yue, the CEO of Matrix Technology, Zhang Han, the general manager of "Virtual World", Fern Brownell, the CEO of D-Wave, and others were listed one by one.

Reporters from major media newspapers gathered together to welcome a day of special significance.

Ren Hong arrived at the site of the inauguration ceremony 20 minutes later, and immediately attracted the attention of all parties. At this moment, it was exactly 10:20 in the morning.

At 10:30, the inauguration ceremony officially began.

Ren Hong, who was wearing a gray and black short-sleeved T-shirt, faced all the media and said: "Good morning, everyone. Today is July 16, 2024, an insignificant and ordinary day, but today in the field of computers, especially the field of quantum computers, It's a special day."

"Because today, the world's first super quantum computer will be officially born." Speaking of this, Ren Hong came to the ribbon, "Today, July 16, 2024! The quantum supercomputing 'L' is officially born!!"

After finishing speaking, Ren Hong personally cut the fiery red ribbon, and the fireworks immediately fluttered on the scene, and the audience immediately welcomed a burst of applause.

At the same time, the quantum supercomputing 'L' placed on the more than 100 floors of the "l" building was officially launched.

"After two years, three months and eleven days, with a total investment of 70.9 billion US dollars, the quantum supercomputing 'L' has become the fastest, highest and most powerful computer in human history in the entire solar system, and we Dare to say that in the next 500 years, no second quantum supercomputer will surpass it."

Ren Hong is very confident that no one can have the courage to invest more than 70 billion US dollars, and another important reason is that there is no need for such a large-scale supercomputer at all. Conventional quantum computers can already meet the needs to a great extent, just like With traditional supercomputers, the United States can easily build a supercomputer that ranks first in the world, but it didn't do so because it didn't need it. As far as quantum supercomputing is concerned, there may not even be a second one in the next 100 years, for the same reason as above.

Ren Hong continued: "I think many people have the same question, what is Matrix Technology spending an astronomical figure for? Is it just a false name of the first? Today I can give you a preliminary answer."

All the media reporters immediately opened their eyes. Is this the rhythm of breaking news?

"Here, I officially announce..." Just as Ren Hong said this, the media who came to the scene immediately stared at Ren Hong intently.

"Ten days later, that is, on July 26, Matrix Technology will officially hold a new product launch conference!"

As soon as the words fell, the cameras in the audience flashed non-stop, and all the whispers echoed on the scene.

"What? New product launch event?"

"It's super exciting! The head of Matrix Technology personally announced the new product launch conference, it's too sudden."

"It has been almost three years since Mr. Ren held a new product launch conference last time. The last time was 'S-2', so what is this time?"

The media reporters and guests who came to the scene were very surprised. They did not expect to come to participate in the inauguration ceremony of the quantum supercomputing, but they got such news by accident.

In fact, Matrix Technology holds large and small product launches every year, this subsidiary or that subsidiary, but what is really exciting is undoubtedly the new product launch with the participation of its founder. Ren Hong's participation is to lead the new trend, It is the guarantee of extraordinary and black technology products.

Ren Hong suddenly said with a smile: "July 26, can everyone guess what is special about this day?"

special?

If there's anything special about this day...

After a while of contemplation, a voice immediately sounded, it was an American reporter, "If I'm right, the big news on July 26th...isn't it the first stop of MST's world tour debut, 'Shanghai Tour' day?"

As soon as this remark came out, the audience suddenly realized that the grandest concert in history was held on this day. The most popular singers and superstars from all over the world gathered together. On this day, the whole of Shanghai can be said to be "star-filled" blinding the world. One day, the MST platform is the asset of Matrix Technology.

"Very correct." Ren Hong gave the American a thumbs up, and he continued: "On July 26, at the time of the world tour debut, the new product of Matrix Technology will be officially launched in Shanghai on that day!"
