Chapter 923 - New Passengers
Computing resources are one of the most important basic productive forces in modern society. The demand is even higher than human resources and various mechanical equipment, whether it is administrative management or production at all levels. , scientific research, education and training, or the military field, it is indispensable in all walks of life and all aspects.
Especially with the popularization of cloud technology, the demand for computing power from terminals, servers and transmission ends is like a bottomless pit that will never be filled.
Even a behemoth in the industrial field like Lewis Industries still has a big gap in computing power resources. Even if it invests huge budgets in procurement or technology iteration every year, it still cannot meet all the computing power needs. , and the demand for computing power within the enterprise will continue to increase year by year.
Hasn’t Louis Langdon ever thought about a supercomputing unit with the dragon’s heart as its core?
I must have thought about it, but other things are easy to get, and problems that can be solved with money are not problems. But the biggest problem is also the only problem. Even with money, you can't buy the core of the gold-type dragon, please. He even used the connections of the Sky Star Slan Dynasty to inquire with Sky Dragon City, but the proud dragon ignored him at all. Even this attitude was already very polite.
This thing is impossible to get unless you can kill a giant gold dragon.
Even Chen Fei, whether directly or indirectly, has killed two adult gold dragons, but he has not even gotten a single dragon heart core. The one he has now is still I accidentally picked it up on the Emerald Star. This was because the parasitic species didn't want to pick it up.
No one thought that a super nuclear weapon like the Tsar Plus destroyed the dragon's body, but failed to destroy the dragon's core.
After all, no one has used nuclear weapons to blow up a dragon. There have been successful cases of elemental annihilation bombs, but they have not successfully recovered the dragon's core.
"Of course there is no problem. I can give you up to 50% of the calculation amount."
Although Chen Fei was a little surprised by the boss's request, he agreed without hesitation. He didn't need it for the time being. More, the redundant calculations are shared with the other party. Of course, there is still some room left, but it is just enough to return some favors, so as not to always ask for unilaterally (picking up wool), which will not be good after a long time.
Louis Langdon said happily: "I will quote you a unit price later and settle according to usage."
Although 50% of the computing resources is not a high proportion, in fact , all peak computing workloads of the entire Lewis Industries may not be able to fill 10% of this "planetary computing node".
The supercomputing unit materials sent by Lewis Industrial Company are actually ready-made. Unfortunately, they cannot get the dragon core. Lewis Industrial Company’s own supercomputing unit can only be discarded. Now it can be rented directly. , everyone is happy.
When preparing the materials for the super-computing unit, Louis Langdon also had a lot of extra things added, deliberately confusing possible sights so that no one could see that Chen Fei was using a dragon core to make a super-computing unit.
After all, he is an old man who has lived for two lifetimes. He does things flawlessly and leaves no flaws at all.
"No money, just friendly support. Mr. Langdon, you have helped me so much, so naturally I have to show something. Talking about money will hurt feelings."
Although the boss doesn't care, The price of support is to put Chen Fei on the front line of blocking the alien race from outside the world. However, without this support, it would be difficult for him to survive the previous battles, and he would also encounter many unimaginable resistances and interferences.
There are never quiet years in this world. There are always some people who carry the burden for others in obscurity. This is the case for Chen Fei, and the same is true for Louis Langdon.
"Okay, then I'll accept it!"
The boss didn't show any pretense, he accepted the favor directly, and then asked: "Does your current spaceship still have idle space? The maximum is How many cubic meters?”
The question must be about a giant spaceship, and it is a non-storage space.
Otherwise, with the capacity of Chen Fei's "Space Imprint", he could barely touch the edge. This hand alone would be enough to be rated as S-level.
Chen Fei looked at the actual data provided by the artificial intelligence AI "Adam" in real time and said: "There are about 300,000 cubic meters left!"
As long as he is around, this giant airship will become a super-large combat weapon that can grow. Its special abilities, SEG core units, and spell arrays make it do not need to occupy too much volume in the power system, but there is a lot of idle space. There will be more and more as the ship grows.
“Understood, a medium-sized transport spaceship will arrive in three days, as well as a research and development team, all of which will be handed over to you.”
In addition to asking about the supercomputing unit, the president of Lewis Industries Besides, there are other things.
"Is it the same as the Ark Project?"
Chen Fei immediately thought of the passengers on the giant spaceship.
Mr. Langdon is a reborn person. His last duty in his previous life was to preserve the fire of civilization, and he will probably do the same in this life.
In fact, the so-called Ark Project is another way of saying it, the Refugee Plan. Even the Blue Star home is not guaranteed, and they can only escape like a bereaved dog into the stars, looking for a possible second home.
"It's almost the same. You will understand naturally after you receive it. Let's go here first this time and talk about it next time!"
The boss didn't continue to chat anymore. After achieving his goal, he simply said ended the call.
What kind of treasure is it, and it’s still a secret!
Chen Fei put away his phone in confusion.
Three days later, a transport spaceship with one-third the length of the giant spaceship arrived at the location of the abnormal area on Ordovician. It slowly landed next to the giant spaceship. There was only one space between the two sides. Forty meters away.
Chen Fei's special ability was activated, and a direct overpass was established on the site, connecting the two parallel spaceships to each other, and began to receive equipment, materials and personnel from afar.
"Hello, Mr. Chen, I am Mino, Mino Heaton, the person in charge of the research and development of elemental annihilation weapons. I was an assistant engineer 48 hours ago, and now I have become a full-time employee. I am here with me this time. There are 115 researchers in total, and There are 751 family members, a total of 867 people. I hope you can accommodate them here.”
As the team representative, a bearded middle-aged man in a work jacket immediately went to the giant airship when the supplies began to be transported. Captain reports.
Dragging the whole family over at once is probably the same as the Ark Project. It is best for the Blue Star Civilization to survive this disaster, so that in the end everyone can go back to their respective homes and find their respective mothers.
If not, these people are interstellar refugees who have kept the fire of human civilization, wandering in the vast starry sky, wandering...
"No problem, the rated crew capacity of the No. 2 spacecraft is currently There are 11,000 people. Currently there are only 3,578 people. There is still a lot of room left. I It seems that there are minor family members in your list? Although there is no educational institution now, the personnel, space and materials are all ready and can be set up immediately, and they will be in place in 24 hours."
Chen Fei. The complete list just received appeared on the AR visual auxiliary effects interface.
Education is the foundation of civilization. The Ark plan originally took into account the educational function. Among the passengers are experts in education, ranging from pregnancy to higher education. I originally thought that it would be dispatched in a year's time. It has been put to use (couples who have successfully matched have begun to appear and are about to enter the childbearing period), but I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to play a role now.
In addition to professional researchers, there are also many talents with professional skills in the family group, who can be integrated into the passengers on the giant spaceship. The more people, the better.
Although there has not been strict genetic screening, as a family member of a highly intelligent person, the boss also knows some actual facts about the Ark Project. It is estimated that there will be some checks when making the list, so even if the innate foundation is not as good as before A small group of passengers, but not much worse.
Artificial intelligence AI "Adam" filtered the health records, and there were no cases of congenital genetic diseases, as expected.
Even if it is the continuation of the fire of mankind, at this time, it is impossible to continue to inherit the obviously defective genes. This is irresponsible for the future of mankind.
“That’s great!”
Hearing that there was still a lot of space on the giant spaceship, Mino Heaton, the head of the elemental annihilation weapon research and development team who had been mentally prepared to live in a crowded place, breathed a long sigh of relief.
The quality of the living environment will directly affect the efficiency of research and development.
"Don't worry, there are football fields, basketball courts, badminton courts, swimming pools, movie theaters, shopping malls, hospitals and parks inside the spaceship. You can use them as you like."
Chen Fei was interested in the giant spaceship. Some planning was done internally and put into practice.
In addition, there are agricultural facilities, which have begun to produce some fresh vegetables, and livestock and breeding have also begun to be on the schedule. Reducing the pressure on his "space imprint" reserves is not the main purpose, but To ultimately achieve self-sufficiency.
After all, in the vast sea of stars, after the supply of the home star is cut off, self-sustainability is the most important thing to ensure that everyone survives. (End of this chapter)
