Chapter 262 Graphics Card, Honggu
The western suburbs of Beijing.
The Second Guest House of the Eastern State Council (Friendship Hotel).
Old Smith stood in front of the window, frowning and thinking about Yu Sanyuan's purchase of graphics cards.
In his opinion, Yu Sanyuan is a very terrible strategist.
Just like a graphics card matrix.
When Sanyuan Agriculture disclosed its genetic optimization technology, it proposed a synchronous parallel computing rule based on the rendering function of a graphics card, also called a graphics card array algorithm.
This theory is so correct that many genetic and bioengineering institutions around the world have successively completed gene sequencing.
It also greatly promoted the development of genetic engineering and Turing technology on the home planet.
Thus, the new era nuclear weapon "Graphics Matrix" was born.
But after a series of tests, the capital consortium that was obsessed with the graphics card matrix soon discovered that the number of "graphics cards" was not "infinite."
In other words, the number of graphics cards is limited, but genetic changes are unlimited.
No matter how huge the graphics card matrix is, it cannot show all the genetic changes.
Therefore, the graphics card matrix cannot achieve theoretical ‘genetic optimization’, let alone ‘first-generation artificial intelligence’.
However, Yu Sanyuan was very enthusiastic in this area. First, there was the Pingdong Science and Technology Bureau on the surface, and then there was the hidden Xintai Data Center. He also produced a series of scientific research results from time to time.
What kind of three-line seeds, what kind of three-line pork and beef, what kind of Pingdong big tortoise, what kind of delicious fruits and vegetables...
So much so that the capital consortium seriously suspected that Yu Sanyuan had hidden one or even multiple graphics card matrices, so they had to bite the bullet and desperately stack up the scale of the graphics card matrix, hoping to "quantitative change lead to qualitative change" and catch up with Sanyuan Agriculture.
Therefore, as of mid-May 2001.
The old Morgan matrix used 5.7 million graphics cards.
Oil King's matrix uses 4.1 million graphics cards.
The Smith family's matrix uses 3.3 million graphics cards.
The matrix of the Lao Bu family uses 3.9 million graphics cards.
The matrix of the European Union...
England's Matrix...
Before there was a graphics card matrix, the annual output of mainstream graphics cards in the world was about 8 million units.
Nowadays, the demand is so huge, coupled with normal market demand, graphics card manufacturers must increase capital and expand production.
Together with the video memory particle factory, PCB circuit board factory, wafer processing factory, display chip design department, and display chip foundry, they must also increase capital and expand production.
Therefore, after Yu Sanyuan admitted that "the graphics card matrix is indeed useless," it triggered a series of terrible consequences.
Five days ago, the chairman, vice chairman, and six shareholders of 3Dfx collectively jumped off the building. The company entered bankruptcy protection. David Ensig intervened and planned to invest US$20 million to complete the acquisition.
On the same day, Trident, the oldest graphics card manufacturer, and S3, the overlord of 2D graphics cards, declared bankruptcy one after another.
Three days ago, Nvidia's stock price plummeted. If Pioneer and the Smith family had not come to the rescue, Nvidia would have almost followed in the footsteps of 3Dfx.
Two days ago, Canada's ATI announced large-scale layoffs.
Today, Xiangjiang graphics card manufacturers Shuangmin Electronics and New World Group have been acquired by Xiangjiang Sanyuan Technology.
The price of graphics cards has plummeted, causing countless investors to lose their money.
This shows how terrifying Yu Sanyuan is.
Normally speaking, as a competitor, the Smith family would rather destroy the graphics card than sell it to Yu Sanyuan.
But graphics cards are not resources, let alone weapons.
It is a lossy electronic product that will depreciate more and more even if it is not used.
Just like the Smith family graphics card matrix.
In the middle of last year, I purchased a graphics card with 32M video memory.
At the end of last year, we purchased a graphics card with 64M video memory.
In the middle of this year, we purchased a Geforce3 series 128M graphics card.
Wait until next year, maybe 256M video memory will be available.
By then, will a 32M video memory graphics card still be worth money?
Then there is.
If the Smith family dismantled eighty-nine-tenths of the graphics card matrix, packaged it and sold it to Yu Sanyuan, the other party would mass-produce backward keyboard game consoles with Internet access.
This is not only conducive to cultivating the habit of surfing the Internet among Eastern people and driving the sales of Western electronic products, it can also be used to support the comprador group in the East, making the East addicted to comprador and completely losing its research and development capabilities, thereby helping the Smith family complete the Eastern electronic technology market. Total monopoly.
Once the Smith family monopolizes the Eastern market, Sanyuan Agriculture will never be able to achieve ‘self-produced electronic products’.
Therefore, the second-hand goods removed from the graphics card matrix can be sold to Yu Sanyuan.
The question is, could these things that I was thinking about be what Yu Sanyuan made me think on purpose?
Although Old Smith has an extremely powerful financial strategic mind, he is also extremely vigilant at this moment.
After all, the losses he and his wife suffered at the hands of Yu Sanyuan were too numerous to describe.
So, Old Smith put himself in his shoes and guessed whether Old Boo would sell it.
Facts have proved that the other party will definitely sell.
Because Smith knew the capitalist.
If the other party is asked to spend 2 billion US dollars to open up the Eastern market, Lao Bu will definitely allocate funds without hesitation.
But if the other party throws away the abandoned bicycle in the yard, it will be more uncomfortable for Lao Bu than killing Xiao Bu.
At this stage, the graphics card matrix has no other functions except for hacker attacks, network protection, and gene sequencing.
It will only become less and less valuable if left alone. Why don't you sell it?
Old Smith lit his pipe and picked up the communicator.
"Yu, 3 million mainstream graphics cards from the past two years, priced at 200 US dollars each, totaling 600 million US dollars. You remit the money now and I will have someone fly it to Han Gaixi for you within a week."
"Do you think I look like a fool?"
"..."
"The graphics card matrix uses a synchronous parallel algorithm, which means that all graphics cards are overloaded, just like a mining card. You sell me a card for 200 US dollars?"
"What is a mining card?"
“Mining trucks.”
"Oh, Shet, not so broken."
"$200 million, no one of us should play tricks. If you are willing to sell, I will remit the money now."
"Yu, in order to build a graphics card matrix, I have invested tens of billions of dollars. Now that I am dismantling it, you only give me 200 million?"
"As a financial investor, tell me about this kind of thinking? Why don't you tell me that you bought NVIDIA shares six months ago for $200 per share, and now that you sell NVIDIA shares, you can only get back $20 per share?"< br>
"..."
"It's all the same thing...sell it or not? I only need 5 million graphics cards. If you don't sell them, Old Bu will sell them, Old Morgan will sell them, and so will the oil king."
"Sell!"
……
Xijiang, Hero City, Honggutan.
Yu Yang hung up the phone and contacted the Oriental Head Office, asking them to transfer US$200 million from the 3 billion euros compensated by the Walton family to ADM.
Note: Buy a dog.
Salesperson: "???"
Subsequently, Yu Yang contacted Welch, the chairman of General Electric.
Ask the other party to help ask Old Morgan if he is willing to transfer the graphics card matrix.
If you are willing, Sanyuan Agriculture will allow two banking institutions, Morgan Stanley and Morgan Stanley, to set up offices and business sites in the Sanyuan Agriculture factory, and Sanyuan Agriculture will hand over the settlement business related to entering the European market to Big Morgan and Morgan Stanley. Mo.
Old Morgan had no reason to refuse.
It soon agreed to transfer 5 million mainstream graphics cards from the past two years.
Yu Yang immediately contacted general manager Li Changnian and asked him to find Welch, who was on vacation at Shili Camp, to make contact.
After that, I did not contact the oil king again, nor did I contact the European region, England, etc. again. Because at this point, sellers will come to you.
As for what we need to do with so many backward graphics cards...
In the next plan, in addition to building a batch of Xiaobawang keyboards with independent graphics cards, we will help investors in Agriculture 3.0 use TVs to monitor and monitor at any time.
We also need to use General Electric’s PLC + host computer technology to create a batch of automated production equipment that includes ‘visualization, graphics, and video’.
Then there is.
The current Internet speed is very slow, which does not mean that your communication network is slow.
Waiting for the high-speed railway communication network project to complete the first phase of construction, the local area network using optical cables from Beijing → Hangaixi Transportation Hub → Hero City will be evenly distributed to a single high-speed train. The per capita broadband speed can be 20~300Mbps, which is equivalent to 2.5 uploads per second. M, or download 37.5M of data.
At this time, you can use a new graphics card matrix to try to record the growth process of every cow, every sheep, every chicken, and every green plant, and then synthesize 'big data'.
In other words, ‘big data’ is not collected overnight, but ‘countless possibilities’ collected over time.
It's like taking a picture of a chicken.
Ten years later, hundreds of billions of pictures had been taken.
Suddenly one day, a certain netizen wanted a photo of a chicken with a crooked mouth, slanted eyes, and a yellow crown.
At this time, the graphics card matrix can select a batch of similar photos from hundreds of billions of chicken photos and provide them to the netizen.
These photos are highly realistic and have no traces of modification. I wonder if this AI is smart?
Of course, AI can also synthesize hundreds of billions of chicken photos and regenerate a few photos that netizens want.
But without these hundreds of billions of chicken photos, AI will certainly not be able to reflect its own ‘intelligence’.
This is the relationship between big data and AI.
In the same way, plants, earth, sky, white clouds, dark clouds, rain, snow, starry sky, lightning and thunder...
The more records are recorded, the smarter the AI becomes.
The more you use it, the more flexible the AI becomes.
In general, this is laying the foundation for the future.
…
After Yu Yang finished buying second-hand graphics cards, he stood on the edge of the Gan River and looked at the Hero City in the distance.
Ganjiang River is a branch of the Yangtze River. From the west side of Hero City, from south to north, it merges into Poyang Lake and then connects to the Yangtze River in Jiujiang.
Building a bridge is a big investment these days.
Therefore, it is difficult for Hero City to bypass the Gan River and develop westward. It can only extend east, south, and north.
As a result, the Ganjiang River is like an isolation zone that blocks ant colonies. To the east is the increasingly large Hero City, and to the west is a desolate and vast swamp, a small amount of farmland, or patches of garbage dumps.
Although Hero City opened the Honggutan Development Zone in 1999, intending to fill in the tidal flats and build a new area, due to the lack of investors and weak local finances, there was still not much progress until last year.
It's different now.
The terminal station of the Beijing-Xijiang high-speed railway is located in Honggutan.
At the same time, there are also departure stations from Xijiang → Jianfu and Xijiang → Wudu.
Around these, in addition to Shili Mall, Sanyuan Agriculture has also built a flower market in the direction of Jiujiang, a logistics distribution center on the west side, and a passenger service center on the south side.
As well as supporting hotels, automobile trade cities, vocational colleges, building materials wholesale markets, steel wholesale markets, and various R&D departments.
It can be said that this is a brand new ‘Ten Mile Camp’.
Once completed, it will attract talents from surrounding developed areas to settle down and turn Honggutan into the ‘Xijiang Honggu’.
The overall scale will not be smaller than the current Hero City.
This is the strength of ternary agriculture.
In addition, in order to facilitate transportation, the company has also invested in 7 Ganjiang Bridges to connect multiple urban areas in Hero City.
Of course, our investment in Xijiang goes beyond Hero City.
There are also western planting areas, southern breeding areas, Poyang Lake fisheries, eastern Shangrao tea...
Yu Yang spent two weeks checking out various existing projects.
It was already June 16th when the Mi-26 lifted the Wuling Light into the foggy city of Fuling.
At this time, the cruise ships and transport ships of the North American Ocean Shipping Group arrived at Dongshan Qinggang and began to load the steel building materials of the North American Shili Mall.
Since the supermarket project involves the Lao Bu family and the Smith family, and is closely related to Dongfang's export earnings, no one is looking for trouble for the time being.
At the same time, 3 million graphics cards from old Smith and 5 million graphics cards from old Morgan were also sent over.
Noon on June 16th.
Mi26 returns to Hero City.
The convoy entered the foggy city.
Yu Yang sat in the back row of Wuling Light, picked up the communicator, and was a little curious as to why Lao Bu hadn't called to sell their second-hand graphics cards.
Suddenly.
Two officers dressed as traffic policemen let go of the two Santanas in front and stopped the Wuling Light.
The driver took out his ID and said, "Comrade, what's the matter?"
"Is your car modified?"
"It is a modification, but the certificates are complete. You see, it is certified by Dongfang Industrial System."
"These days, those who make fake certificates are more difficult to distinguish between genuine and fake certificates than real certificates."
"Comrade, this is all true."
"The car is temporarily impounded, and the person is left to deal with it."
"Comrades, we are all from Fogdu, why should we give you face?"
"Don't ignore me, you can see that Dou is not in the fog."
"You know I'm not Wudu?"
The traffic policeman looked into the distance, "If you don't admit it, I'll stop you in the foggy city and show you."
As he spoke, he waved his hand to intercept a motorcycle rider.
Unexpectedly, a motorcycle flew past, and a sentence came from a distance: "You ham, why are you here chasing after labor and wages!"
The traffic policeman turned around and said, "No, I'm from the foggy city. You kid, you can see that I'm from out of town!"
The words have not yet fallen.
But I saw the driver of the Wuling Zhiguang put the gear in gear, hit the accelerator, and jumped out with friction all the way, and said: "You harp, why are you here to chase after the labor!"
"..."
Facts have proved that the modified Wuling Zhiguang is indeed awesome.
Even though the roads in the foggy city were difficult for even the locals to recognize, the driver still relied on speed and drift to get rid of the crowd of officers.
By the time we arrived at Wudu Sanyuan Pharmaceutical Corporation, it was already evening.
Accompanied by Chang Fu and Chang Shou, Yu Yang walked into the gate wearing a patrol flag inspection certificate.
A six-story office building, quite decent.
The decoration style inside is also very suitable for Sanyuan Agriculture.
The statue of the great man at the main entrance shows that socialism is good on the left and labor is the most glorious on the right.
At this time.
The person in charge of Wudu Sanyuan Pharmaceutical Corporation hurriedly walked downstairs.
He came to Yu Yang and whispered: "Dr. Yu, the news of your going south was leaked for some reason. There are several underground forces in Fog City who are sending people to look for you."
"What do you want from me?"
"It should be about 'talking' about some business."
"Look, this is your problem. If you were half as capable as Liao Pengfei, no one would dare to come to me."
"Dr. Yu, this is the foggy city, not Xiangjiang."
