Chapter 164 Research and Development of Supercomputers

After Catherine had completely sorted out her property, it was already 6 o'clock. Catherine went to wash up and then wanted to find some clothes to change into.

But at this time, Catherine found to her embarrassment that she was in a hurry when she arrived, and there were no clothes for her at the villa.

Just at this time, Jenny also came here.

"Kate?"

"Jenny? Where's Elsa?" Catherine asked.

"She is still sleeping. I tried to hypnotize her yesterday. I think if possible, she may need to take some antidepressant drugs... Of course, it is best to see a psychiatrist before doing this. Ai

There is nothing wrong with Erza herself. As long as you pay more attention to her in daily life, I believe she will come out of the shadows soon."

Catherine nodded.

"By the way, Kate..." Jenny seemed to remember something again.

"What's wrong?" Catherine looked at her strangely.

Jenny shook her head: "No, it's nothing."

"By the way, Jenny, can you get me some clothes?" Catherine was naked all the time, but she was also a little embarrassed.

"this……"

It's summer now, and everyone is wearing thin clothes. "Maybe there are some at Lisa's place." She finally answered.

Catherine scratched her head. It seemed that she finally asked Lisa for help, but with the same clothes as yesterday... Catherine was too grateful to thank her.

By the time Catherine returned to the bedroom, everyone had already woken up.

"Lisa, can you get me a dress?" Catherine asked immediately.

"Well..." Lisa shook her head and then sat up.

"Clothes? Oh. I still have some tailor-made clothes over there. It's no problem to wear them outside."

Lisa shook her head, then stood up, and finally gave Catherine a beige dress to put on.

Catherine was wearing a dress, but Ada also woke up. She seemed to be awakened by the movement. She looked at Catherine, but she shook her head strangely, and she also woke up.

"Kate, I didn't expect you to be so unrestrained. That voice... is so hot."

"I don't even know what happened next." Catherine simply rolled her eyes.

"Maybe." Ada raised her eyebrows.

June, for Ada and the others, ushered in a new summer vacation, but for Catherine, it meant that she had become an adult and was completely liberated from school.

At this moment, the phone in the room rang.

Catherine went over and immediately answered the phone.

"This is Edson."

"That's great, Miss Edson. I've been looking for you, and Noah has finished it."

"real?"

Catherine suddenly became excited.

"Hey everyone, do you want to visit my company headquarters?"

Catherine immediately extended the invitation.

"Noah", the name comes from Catherine's Ark Group.

Ark means Ark. When thinking of Ark, Catherine naturally thought of Noah.

However, Catherine feels that if her company is called Noah and the newly built building is called Ark, it seems to be more consistent with this meaning. However, Noah in Ark seems to be more interesting than Noah's Ark. What's more, Ark is simple and easy to remember.

Why put a personal name on it?

Catherine brought everyone to her new headquarters.

Seen from a distance, "Noah" looks like a hollow triangular building.

"Oh~ so cool"

Ada, who followed Catherine out of the car, was the first to express emotion.

"Of course, I designed this place myself~"

Catherine said shamelessly.

In fact, she just gave the engineer an idea. Although Catherine flipped through the architecture book and thought hard for a long time, she did not have twelve years to study as hard as she did when she first came to this world.

Therefore, Catherine could only draw a completely amateur design drawing, and then let the engineers modify it according to Catherine's ideas.

After the completion of "Noah", most of the equipment including Ark's R&D center will need to be moved there together.

The first one to be relocated is American Telecom.

Although the laying of optical cables was not as fast as the builders said, the "Piaotian Literature Network" has not yet been completed.

Then, Catherine took Ada and the others around here, and then went back.

Catherine originally wanted to go to Stanford University and the University of California to discuss the development of the Internet. Catherine put the construction of the website first, but soon, another news interrupted Catherine's plan.

The "Hermit of the Jungle," the respected Mr. Seymour Clay, is finally "out of seclusion."

Perhaps to prove himself, or because of Catherine's unlimited investment, Seymour Clay has been researching sleepless nights for several years. Because of Intel's technical support, supercomputer research has been surprisingly smooth.

Using the z80+ as the core supercomputer, the floating point operation speed can reach up to 12 million times per second.

Intel's relocation has not yet begun. After hearing the news, Catherine, who was originally in California, rushed back to New York.

"Where is Mr. Clay?"

As soon as Catherine arrived at Intel's company, she couldn't wait to come to the front desk and started asking.

"Mr. Clay is in the R&D department..." Before the receptionist could finish speaking, Catherine had already left in a hurry.

"Mr. Clay"

Catherine opened the door to the R&D department and saw Seymour Clay sitting in front of a chair, coding continuously on the keyboard.

The encoding used by Seymour Clay is machine code.

The efficiency of machine code is higher than that of C language and higher than that of assembly language. Moreover, Seymour Cray's superb skills allowed the programs he wrote to be free of any bugs.

"Miss Edson?"

He stood up.

"I heard it's completed? Supercomputer?" Catherine immediately began to ask.

"Yes, I am currently modifying the software to make the machine perform better."

"Can I see it?" Catherine asked.

"No problem." Clay began to introduce his skills to Catherine, and he didn't finish until dark.

Catherine also knows the machine code, but it is impossible to play it as masterly as Mr. Clay.

Catherine still remembered that her biggest headache was when she was learning assembly language, but this machine code was even more awkward and difficult to understand than assembly.

By the time Catherine got home, it was already evening. At this time, her father Bruce also gave her a surprise.

"Happy birthday, Kate." These were the first words Catherine heard when she returned home, and then a document was handed to her.

"This is all the equity information about Ark, as well as relevant legal details."

Now that Catherine has reached adulthood, that is to say, she can already control the portion of Catherine's equity that was originally entrusted to Bruce.

"Thank you dad~"

Catherine was very happy, although these shares were only symbolic.

"In addition... I have already met that... Vicente Fox Quesada. This man is studying at Harvard University. It can be seen that he can become a very good person."

Indeed, Vicente was valued by Coca-Cola in his early years. At that time, he was not yet thirty years old. If gold shines, there is nothing wrong with this sentence. "If you can sign an agreement with him, then wait."

In one year, you can hire him, but Kate, where did you know this person?"

"It's a secret."

Catherine is still a little disappointed. Vicente is outstanding. As a professional manager, it is completely okay to let him manage his company for ten years. Moreover, Catherine completely believes in his strength and Bruce seems to like him very much.

This strengthened Catherine's view.

Then, on June 6, "Night of the Living Dead" was released.

The same day was also the premiere of Bruce Lee's "The Green Hornet".

The film with the highest production level in the television industry right now is Catherine's "Fallout."

"Fallout" is completely produced according to movie standards. It can even be said that it is a high-quality work when it is played in theaters - in fact, some theaters have already done this, and the effect seems to be pretty good.

The TV sets of the Dazzling TV series can be matched with the wasteland, and the visual effects can be excellent - compared to now.

Although Catherine was not the director of "Night of the Living Dead", it was her film after all. However, Catherine and Seymour Clay were busy dealing with supercomputers together, so by the time Catherine knew the news, it was already mid-season

.

"Night of the Living Dead" is indeed great, and it uses a panoramic film shooting method. Playing it in a panoramic theater can exaggerate the horror atmosphere to the extreme.

It's just that although the "Hays Code" is basically useless now, it still has some penetration, so on the screen, compared to the version Catherine had seen before, there were a lot less bloody scenes. Instead,

It's more silent fear.

While walking quietly on the road, a zombie suddenly pounces out. Whenever this happens, the cinema will emit a shrill scream. Many people are frightened, but many of the frightened people find it very enjoyable.

So I went back to the cinema to experience this intense excitement again.

Optimistically, there is no problem that "Night of the Living Dead" will gross over 100 million at the box office.

As for "The Green Hornet", it is destined to be a failure in the United States. Now that the TV series is three months ahead of schedule, in Catherine's view, it may still be a failure.

However, what Catherine did not expect was that after "The Green Hornet" was broadcast, it did not fail as it had in history, or in other words, it did not fail so outrageously.

Catherine analyzed the reason and found that the root cause still lies with Bruce Lee.

When the film was originally filmed, Bruce Lee was not as unknown as he was in history. He already had a certain reputation in Hollywood. The film "Wasteland" was Bruce Lee's most famous film.

So all of this is a little different from the original history.

Probably Bruce Lee will not return to Hong Kong as he did in history. Because Bruce Lee still has to fulfill the contract with DreamWorks, and because he did not fail so badly, he may also change the situation in the United States.
