Revisiting Future Path

098 In this world, there is no perfect program, only bugs you don’t want to eliminate

Zheng Lixin continued: "I was born in the 60s after the hydrogen bomb exploded. My childhood was at the peak of the confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union. Nuclear threats and nuclear apocalypse were not threats of sternness, but nightmare that may become reality at any time. Others are strong and you are weak. Why do you want peace when you say you want peace? Why do you want to do business with you when you say you want reform and opening up, and others can rob you? Just like Iraq in the Middle East, what a rich country, just a few. It became a pile of rubble in ten days."

"Army is the guarantee of peace, and security is the foundation of development. In the era of nuclear deterrence, nuclear weapons must be developed if you want to protect your home and your country; if you want to develop nuclear weapons, you must develop supercomputers. My grandfather works with the two bombers and understands computers clearly. The importance and necessity of nuclear testing. Especially the "Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty," because the U.S. Congress refused to ratify it, China’s National People’s Congress had no choice but to disqualify it. Nevertheless, the suspension of nuclear testing is a general trend and negotiation. This background Under the circumstances, the importance of supercomputers has become more and more prominent. Both supercomputers in the United States and China are responsible for simulating nuclear tests. It can be said that supercomputers are an important part of ensuring that our country will not be let alone. "

"It is my responsibility and duty to defend my home and country."

Zheng Lixin said this just to show his determination to the supercomputer career.

Zheng Lixin knew that Wei Dongsheng wanted to know why he contacted Qian Depei, and the topic immediately returned to the main theme: "The difference between a state-owned enterprise and a private enterprise, I really don’t understand. After all, I’m just a researcher. Even if I scold Lenovo, I’m also complaining. Just two sentences, there is no good solution at all."

"Some people say that only state-owned enterprises are willing to lose money to invest in basic research and development. This is true, and it is not correct. It is true because state-owned enterprises are state-owned enterprises after all, and if the state assigns tasks, they must be implemented; no, it is because state-owned enterprises are enterprises after all As a matter of fact, the daily operation is the same as that of a private company, and it is also seeking more market profits. Sugon is in the middle of the bar, and in fact, it is more willing to take into account market profits instead of losing money to research and develop basic science. The reason why Sugon 4000A was established is that In addition to the state-funded scientific research funding support, it also competes with Lenovo in the market."

"As far as I am concerned, I don't care about the superficial articles of state-owned or private companies, and I prefer to see the essence of it. Take Cambrian 2004 as an example, all technical personnel are our Chinese, and all core technologies are controlled by our Chinese. Is there a difference between a private company and a state-owned enterprise? If a war breaks out, the Smart Universe Information Industry Company must instantly become an arsenal. If the name of a state-owned enterprise is attached, the R&D center will be located abroad, and the core technology will not be delivered to the country , The researcher also came from the local country and multinational coalition forces, and during the war, it will inevitably become another arsenal.

Zheng Li freshly stated his position.

Wei Dongsheng understood Zheng Lixin's thoughts, but also slowly understood the ridiculous low-key thinking.

Whether it is the world's number one or China's number one, Cambrian 2004 is destined to not be ignored. Moreover, the significance of the Cambrian 2004 is not only a ten trillion supercomputer, but also a ticket to the heterogeneous era. The importance of the Cambrian 2004 can be clearly felt by Zheng Lixin, let alone other experts in the industry?

Wei Dongsheng's desire to act low-key is purely an unrealistic fantasy.

Wei Dongsheng sighed.

The reason for this misunderstanding is that Wei Dongsheng's thinking is flawed.

First of all, although Wei Dongsheng had his own industry in his previous life, his vision was limited to a certain field and an industry, and he lacked the experience of thinking from a national macro perspective. When Wei Dongsheng prepared for the Cambrian 2004, he took into account the importance of the national level, and also thought about how to cooperate with the national strategy in the future, but ignored that this emphasis is not a linear emphasis, but an uncontrolled scattering influence.

It will affect every aspect.

The second is the limitations of the times. Wei Dongsheng’s past life had no intersection with the supercomputer industry, and he did not understand the history of supercomputer development. Soon after Wei Dongsheng graduated, he witnessed the birth of "Tianhe One". From "Tianhe No. 1" to "Tianhe No. 2" and then to "Shenwei Taihu Light", Wei Dongsheng has become accustomed to China's supercomputer ranking first in the world.

Wei Dongsheng ignored that it is 2004, not 2010, or 2017.

In 2004, the R&D investment in the 863 Program for high-performance computers was only a mere 150 million yuan.

In 2004, China, with a population of 1.3 billion, ranked only seventh in the world in terms of GDP. The people are still discussing whether they have a chance to tie Japan in 2050. From 2004 to 2017, the historical span is only a short 13 years, but the national mentality has undergone earth-shaking changes. Wei Dongsheng examined the value of Cambrian 2004 in the future mentality, and naturally he seriously misjudged the value of Cambrian 2004 in 2004, and then underestimated its impact on Xiao Lei, Zheng Lixin and other researchers.

However, Wei Dongsheng has no time to regret.

It was never Wei Dongsheng's character to regret why there was nothing to do before.

It is not too late to make up for it, and that is Wei Dongsheng's thinking mode.

Perhaps this is Wei Dongsheng's habit as a programmer. It is normal to have all kinds of weird and strange bugs while the program is running. The only way to expect a perfect bug-free program is to let it stay in the imagination forever. In the face of bugs, the most appropriate way is not to slap your head and regret and feel depressed, but to check the cause of the bug as quickly as possible and fix it.

In this world, there is no perfect program, only bugs that you don't want to eliminate.

Aware of the mistake, Wei Dongsheng immediately started to repair it.

Wei Dongsheng revised the original low-key plan on the spot and discussed a new plan with Zheng Lixin: "You contacted Qian Depei for...?"

Zheng Lixin: "I asked him whether Cambrian 2004 or Wisdom Universe Information Industry Co., Ltd. can be included in the 863 plan as quickly as possible. If it is possible, how to operate it; if not, how to improve it. Information in the email , A simple interpretation of the realization ideas of heterogeneous supercomputers, and an aid to prove that Cambrian 2004A is not a scientific research scam."

Wei Dongsheng tentatively asked: "Do you think Wisdom Universe, as a private enterprise, has any hope to integrate into the 863 program at this stage?"

Zheng Lixin: "The state never excludes private enterprises from participating in the 863 plan. The 863 plan wants results, and only results. As I said earlier, as long as the core technology and researchers are in China, the smart universe is already a national strategic asset. As for private enterprises It does not matter if it is not a private enterprise. If necessary, the state can inject capital into the Smart Universe with policies and fixed assets, and Smart Universe can be transformed into a state-owned enterprise at any time. The 863 plan focuses on the results of the national strategic level and drives the investment of local governments and private enterprises. It can reduce the pressure on scientific research funding."

"The reason why the status quo is like this is that the vast majority of private companies are more profit-seeking than state-owned companies. They lack sufficient technical knowledge and are unwilling to invest in research and development with a longer period. Scientific research funds and policy support. Apart from Smart Universe, few supercomputers are willing to lose money and invest in supercomputers that have extremely high thresholds and low profits."

Wei Dongsheng smiled: "Wisdom Universe is also to be profitable."

Zheng Lixin: "Participating in the 863 program does not conflict with the pursuit of profit."

Compared with words, Wei Dongsheng believed in action and encouraged Zheng Lixin to say: "Go and operate. If you need public relations funds, come back and ask me for reimbursement."

As mentioned earlier, Wei Dongsheng does not exclude cooperation with the country, and the 863 program of integrating into the information field has absolutely no disadvantages. In fact, in Wei Dongsheng’s future planning for the Smart Universe Information, he has accumulated enough prestige after a few years of savings, and he will also try to apply for the project to participate in the 11th Five-Year National High-tech Research and Development Plan. Zheng Lixin's spontaneous efforts have only shortened the time to accumulate prestige: success is a good thing; if it fails, wait two more years.

After correcting the misjudgment of future generations' mentality, Wei Dongsheng has already understood Zheng Lixin's thoughts in general.

The country is not a company.

The key to governing a company lies in choosing the business direction and improving execution capabilities. Declining companies are missing one of them. The governance of the country is completely different, because the country’s business direction is full of uncertainty. For example, some areas have food and clothing and want a good living environment with blue sky and white clouds; other areas have blue sky and white clouds and clean rivers, but they suffer from the economy. Poverty and population loss. In national policies, there has never been a top-down compulsory order. Every "up" is actually a spokesperson for the interests of all parties. Therefore, the state is a collection of multiple forces, and every policy is the product of the compromise of the interests of all parties.

The same is true for the 863 Project. It is not an idea of ​​someone slapping the head, but the result of the collective appeal of the people.

Zheng Lixin was born in the scientific research world. He has heard of and seen collusion between officials and businessmen, but he has no means or confidence to stop this phenomenon. Therefore, Zheng Lixin started from scientific research ideas, integrated Cambrian 2004 into the 863 program, **** with national interests, and established vague connections with dozens of units, and then repelled those greedy speculators.

Wei Dongsheng is actually not optimistic about Zheng Lixin's ideas.

However, something is better than nothing.

Wei Dongsheng is also willing to participate in the 863 program, which will then drive the full rise of China's information field.

Before operating the project, first prove your strength. The Cambrian 2004A achieved 11.6 trillion times. It is impossible for Zhiyu to say that it has been achieved. Others must believe it. Cambrian 2004A wants to go to the supercomputer Top_500, which needs to be checked by relevant personnel; Cambrian 2004A and Cambrian 2004 projects want to be integrated into the 863 plan, and require more stringent inspections. For example, Dawning 4000A, as the latest achievement of the 863 Program, has been pre-listed by Top_500, but it must pass the appraisal and acceptance procedures of the Ministry of Science and Technology.

In the following days, Wei Dongsheng gave up his unrealistic low-key thinking and was run by Xiao Lei and Zheng Lixin.

During the period, other business directions have successively heard good news.
