Chapter 442

"Boss, then I don't need to revise my swordsman love: loyalty to the country." Qiu Xin exclaimed in surprise.

If the company can have its own supercomputer, it can completely replace the existing server group. Qiu Xin's design concept enables all players to participate in large-scale task battles, and promotes the development of game background.

"Bruce, how much money does it take to build a supercomputer and how much data traffic can it carry?" Lin Feng nodded and turned to look at Bruce Allen.

Everyone in the conference room, especially minwu Lee, who was responsible for the development of World War, looked at Bruce Allen with expectation and apprehension.

Bruce Allen took Qiu Xin's design book "swordsman's devotion to his country" from his desktop. After reading it carefully, he held his chin and pondered for a while. He said, "boss, the best desktop CPU today is Intel's Pentium 4, plus NVIDIA's graphics processing chip, using Linux cluster, It would take about $10 million to build a supercomputer with more than 10 trillion floating-point operations per second. "

After hearing this, people are already excited. The supercomputer with 10 trillion times per second has far exceeded the 403.2 billion times per second computing power of "Dawning 3000" developed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

But can Bruce Allen's personal supercomputer really surpass that of the Chinese Academy of Sciences? Lin Feng can't believe it.

"Ha ha, boss, there is a mistake in your concept. The supercomputer developed by me and the dawning series supercomputer developed by the Chinese Academy of sciences do not belong to the same concept. My supercomputer is based on the products of existing CPU and graphics processor manufacturers. And the Chinese Academy of Sciences supercomputer, although the computing power is far weaker than that of the developed countries, is completely independent research and development. " Bruce Allen seemed to feel the doubts of Lin Feng and others and explained with a smile, "in short, my supercomputer is subject to various computer hardware manufacturers, but the Chinese Academy of Sciences will not. They can continue to develop faster supercomputers, but it is difficult for me. Another point is that my supercomputer has a big security vulnerability. After all, it's all the technology of other companies, and so is the operating system. Fortunately, the company has Kevin. " Bruce Allen patted Kevin Mitnick on the shoulder.

The supercomputer designed by Bruce Allen has all the technology from other companies. He can't solve the loopholes in it. However, these loopholes are transparent in the industry and are familiar to all the top hackers. These people can use these loopholes to attack Bruce's supercomputer. This is why other super companies and countries are desperately studying their supercomputer technology.

Lin Feng was relieved. One is to use other people's technology, and the other is to research and develop independently, which has a different foundation. As for the possible attack, Lin Feng is not too worried. Otherwise, why do you pay so much for Kevin Mitnick, the world's number one hacker.

"How much player data traffic can it carry?" Lin Feng then asked. This is the key. I'm a game software company. As long as I have supercomputers, it doesn't matter whether I'm completely independent in research and development.

"It's preliminarily estimated that it can load 1 million players online at the same time. Of course, it all depends on the actual operation. " Bruce Allen estimates conservatively.

"Well, Qiu Xin, you don't need to revise it for the time being. There's only one section in swordsman's love for the country. If the system is blocked, partition it again. " Lin Feng confirmed.

"Yes, boss." Qiu Xin looks excited, so that his design concept can be fully realized. Let all players participate in the game, to change history, change the world in the game, to get the maximum degree of freedom.

"By the way, boss, I have another problem for you." Qiu Xin thought about it and said.

"What's the matter?" Lin Feng asked in surprise.

"When I first set up swordsman online, I designed three backgrounds, namely three expansion films. The first expansion is now "swordsman's devotion to the country". It takes the story of General Yue Fei as the background, and allows players to participate in it, so as to re experience the solemn and stirring story of General Yue Fei and the heroic story of fighting against the Jin army. " Qiu Xin explains.

Lin Feng nodded.

"The second expansion will start in 1230, that is, the rise of Mongolia. Players will participate in the Three Kingdoms war of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty and Mongolia. I call it" the rise of Mongolia in love with swordsman ". As for the third expansion, in 1264, Mongolia besieged Xiangyang, which is the third" Xiangyang war "in history, I call it "the battle of Xiangyang." Qiu Xin's tone was full of excitement.

These three expansion films are all sorrows in Chinese history. Qiu Xin designed them. One is a little personal wish. The other is to let players review history and even change history. The three expansion pieces themselves are separated for decades, and the actions of the players will not destroy the whole game architecture.

"Boss, among the three expansion films, the contents of the second expansion film" the rise of Mongolia "and the third expansion film" the battle of Xiangyang ", Mr. Jin Yong's" biography of the arched hero "and" the hero of the divine eagle "have been re written and are familiar to many players. Therefore, I wonder if I can find Mr. Jin Yong to buy his copyright and add some of his deeds to the game, especially those Wulin characters in the book. I believe it will attract more players' interest. " Qiu Xin revealed his intention just now.

Lin Feng nodded. "Swordsman love" itself belongs to the semi aerial history category. It's not bad to add a little more martial arts elements in it. Besides, the added elements are familiar to the players, and I believe they can also arouse the resonance of the players.

"Mr. Wu, you are in charge of this matter." Lin Feng said.

Wu Zhaopu nodded. He was also quite interested in this idea and believed that it would also achieve good results.

Finally, several other departments reported their work and the meeting ended. But Lin Feng came to his office with Kevin Mitnick, Cohen and Bruce Allen.

"Boss, thank you so much for saving me from the FBI." When he arrived at Lin Feng's office, Kevin Mitnick said thanks carefully.

"Hehe, Kevin, you're welcome. The company also needs your ability." Lin Feng said with a smile.

"Boss, I didn't finish what I said at the meeting just now. Although the supercomputer I personally developed is far more cost-effective than other supercomputers in terms of price and speed, its network security and follow-up development are far inferior to those of other supercomputers and some countries. Although there is Kevin's help, there are many talented people in the field of computer hackers. It's hard to guarantee that no one will break the company's network defense in the future. Once the player data is destroyed, it will be fatal to the company, especially if the player data is on a supercomputer. " Bruce Allen worried.

"Bruce, speak up." Lin Feng recognized the meaning of Bruce Allen's words.

"Boss, I think we still need to develop our own supercomputer." Bruce Allen was very careful to repeat.

"Bruce, but our company is just a game software development company, does not have any hardware development capabilities. Even if the acquisition, I'm afraid not only the investment is huge, but also I'm afraid I can't compete with "Intel" and "amd" in a short time. " Lin Feng said with a frown.

"I know, boss. But I don't want to introduce its desktop CPU, but the CPU architecture applied to servers and other terminals. In this way, we can avoid the edge of Intel, and we only need to dig a few people from major CPU companies. If the company has money, it can also acquire CPU manufacturers such as IDT and arm Ltd (Amway International Technology) for about US $1.5 billion. If you don't have the money, you can rely on Kevin for technology. " Bruce Allen looks at Kevin Mitnick with a smile.

"Boss, there's not much technical problem. I can invade IBM, Intel, AMD and other companies to steal information. Although we may not have access to its core information, as long as we cooperate with Bruce's technology and recruit a few more key talents, we can start to develop our own supercomputers. " Kevin Mitnick said excitedly. All along, the computers he used were personal desktop computers. Occasionally, he could get a workstation server. However, compared with supercomputers, it was very different.

"Yes, boss, with my" cloud computing ", I believe it is not difficult to independently develop our own supercomputers. On the contrary, once R & D is successful, the benefits to the company will be huge. In particular, the large-scale online games designed by the company are a little ahead of time, and the requirements for the players' computers are too strict. For example, "World War II", I'm afraid that if you want to fully enjoy minwu Li's games, you have to have a micro super computer. " Cohen also suggested.

"Well, boss, my theoretical security comes from DIY, so it's not impossible to compress the power of supercomputer and change it to micro supercomputer. And the price is not much more expensive than ordinary desktop computers. It's just that the function is much simpler. " Bruce Allen rubbed his hands excitedly.

"OK, how much budget will it take?" Lin Feng was also moved. If so, our company not only has made great progress in business, but also has more prospects and value for the country.

According to the rules of the WTO game, the government is not allowed to make great efforts to support the competitive technology such as CPU. In terms of market orientation, the government can only support the research and development of pre competitive technology. If their own companies can have the ability to develop supercomputers, there is no doubt that the state will give more support to their own companies.

"It's about $100 million to start with. But with all due respect, the headquarters of the company is really... Terrible, and it's not convenient for us to do research. " Bruce Allen frowned.

"Ha ha, the company's headquarters building is under construction, and it will be completed in two years." Lin Feng laughs helplessly to explain. However, for the $100 million R & D fund Bruce Allen requested, Lin Feng called Wu Zhaopu to discuss it and agreed.

"Bruce, Kevin and Cohen, I will temporarily rent you a closed factory in the suburb of Shanghai for your own research. But Bruce, I hope to have a supercomputer in one month Lin Feng said.

"Ha ha, boss, this is not a big problem. My first DIY supercomputer took about five days, and the second one, which was my DIY supercomputer of $2 million last year, took two weeks. However, boss, let me make one point first. My DIY supercomputer has a single function. I'm afraid it can only be used as a game server terminal and a few other fields. It's impossible to get involved in multiple fields like the supercomputers of other super companies. " Bruce Allen said.

Lin Feng nodded. As long as it can be applied in the field of games, it is enough. Our company is not a scientific research unit, but also needs to simulate nuclear explosions, calculate the trajectory of celestial bodies, and calculate geomagnetic changes and other complex high-tech fields.

"Boss, that's no problem. You can rest assured and wait for our good news." Bruce Allen stood up excitedly and said.

After the three left, Lin Feng walked around the office excitedly. He was very excited when he thought of the launch of "swordsman love: loyalty to the country" and the research and development of supercomputer. After calming down for a while, Lin Feng suddenly remembered that Bruce Allen had just said that Avril was going to hold a concert, and the focus was China, but Avril didn't tell himself. The implication was self-evident.

If Avril so naked "kill" to China, I'm afraid it's no less powerful than the two nuclear bombs detonated by the United States in Japan. Thinking of this, Lin Feng called Avril, hoping to confirm the matter.

However, after a blind call, it was not Avril who answered the phone, but Sam, Avril's uncle and music producer and marketing manager.

"Hello, Sam, why did you answer the phone, Avril?" Lin Feng asked in surprise.

"Lin, as an outsider, I shouldn't have talked too much about the relationship between you and Avril and that Li Zhiyou. But her father and I have been good friends for more than 20 years, and I watched Avril grow up and treat her as her own daughter all the time. So today, with respect to me, I want to have a good talk with you." Sam's tone was one of reproach and discontent.

"Sam... I..." Lin Feng wanted to explain, but he didn't know how to explain. This is my own fault. Who told me that I have made the mistakes that all men in the world would make, but I hope to continue to make mistakes!

"Lin, do you know how much Avril has suffered for you?" Sam asked（ To be continued, if you want to know the future, please log in www.qidian.com , more chapters, support authors, support legitimate reading!)
