From Almighty Scholar to Chief Scientist

Of course, for Lin Xiao, he didn't even know that he had somehow joined a gambling game, and the other party was a group of people.

However, even if he knew, he probably wouldn't care.

Just kidding, even if the opponent is a "krypton guy" who looks like Morgan, Rockefeller, etc., he just packs his bags-open and hang up, no matter how awesome the krypton guy is, he will fall down.

So for him, he doesn't need to care about this gamble at all.

"Ah! Ahh!"

In the research institute, Lin Xiaolian sneezed twice.

"Is this someone scolding me?" Rubbing his nose, Lin Xiao couldn't help but think so.

Of course, it could also be a curse.

However, he didn't care too much, and then continued his research.

"Well... the colloid contains two different states of matter, one dispersed phase and the other continuous phase. Part of the dispersed matter is composed of tiny particles or droplets, and these dispersed matters are the main components .”

"However, a major question remains how to explain the ionic conduction behavior in this electrolyte."

Lin Xiao thought for a moment.

Then, he quickly thought of something.

"By the way, I will try to explain it directly based on the experiments observed by Faraday."

There was a sudden movement in his heart, and he thought of this.

The first scientist to observe a solid electrolyte was Faraday. He discovered two centuries ago that in some solid materials, the ionic conductivity can not lose that of the solution.

And this is why solid electrolytes are considered promising.

If he can now explain this ion conduction process through current theories, it may be very helpful for his current research.

And thinking of this, he was ready to reproduce this experiment that belonged to two centuries ago.

Of course, unlike the crude conditions two centuries ago, the current laboratory can use a variety of advanced experimental equipment.

So just like that, Lin Xiao quickly set up all the experimental procedures, and then started the experiment.

The experiment used silver sulfide solids, the same as Faraday's back then.

After a long and precise experiment, Lin Xiao finally got the results of the experiment.

Then, mathematical calculations were performed based on these experimental results, and finally substituted into the colloid model that Lin Xiao was going to study before.

Lin Xiao frowned suddenly.

"Huh? The value of this ionic conductivity... not good?"

After such a calculation, he was very surprised to find that the value of the ionic conductivity in the colloidal electrolyte cannot reach the ionic conductivity in the silver sulfide solid electrolyte, and in this way, it will seriously affect the performance of the battery. efficiency.

Then he took a serious look at the entire calculation process again, and soon, he noticed another point through the process of these mathematical calculations: "Or, the colloidal electrolyte itself cannot meet my requirements?"

He was lost in thought.

If the colloidal electrolyte cannot meet his requirements, it means that he needs to change his research direction next.

Although he has only started researching for a short time, if he changes his research direction now, it will not waste much time.

However, in his heart, he still felt that there should be something to try.

Just like that, after thinking for a while, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his heart.

Perhaps the aura of the energy revealer once again played a role, making him suddenly understand the hidden restrictions in his calculation formula.

"Yes! It's not that colloidal electrolytes don't work, it's that it doesn't work for all-solid-state lithium batteries, but it's completely feasible for proton batteries!"

Lin Xiao patted his head and figured out the problem.

Given the different nature of lithium batteries and proton batteries, it is entirely possible that his mathematical calculations and imagined errors are entirely possible.

"In this way, that's all right!"

Lin Xiao frowned, and then modified the mathematical formulas he listed before, until finally, he came up with a result he wanted.

"OK, done."

Putting down the pen in his hand, Lin Xiao looked at the final calculation result with a satisfied smile on his face.

"So, the next research idea is more clear. For lithium-sulfur batteries, the use of pure solid electrolytes is the best solution. Otherwise, if colloidal electrolytes are used, the results may not be particularly ideal, but , for proton batteries, colloidal electrolytes are the best solution.”

"Well... Then, next, we can start simulating the materials on the computer."

Lin Xiao must have a better idea in his heart.

"However, if the material is simulated on a computer, maybe I should also find some assistants in computational materials science?"

The next workload will be relatively large, and he needs to find someone to help.

He quickly remembered that he had cooperated with Zhao Sheng several times before. Zhao Sheng was a researcher of their research institute, and he had been invited by him to study RDX pure silicon crystals, as well as room temperature superconductors, and they were very close to each other. Familiar with.

However, he soon remembered that Zhao Sheng seemed to be researching another topic recently, and he probably couldn't spare time to help him, and even if he was found, the other party probably only dealt with some pure typing work, maybe the other party did not have time to help him. willing.

Of course, at this moment, the faces of four young people soon appeared in Lin Xiao's mind.

There was a smile on his face, and then he took out his mobile phone and made a call.

"Hey, it's Kang Chengning, isn't it? Do the four of you have anything to do recently?...Oh, just finished a project? Well, I also have a project here, and I'm short of people. Do you want to come?...Come on ?Okay, then come to my office now, I'll wait for you here...Okay, okay, um, hang up."

Putting down the phone, Lin Xiao had a smile on his face.

That's right, four tool men... labor... ahem, four good assistants with great ambitions.

It is worth celebrating.

……

On the other side, Kang Chengning, who was fighting in the Summoner's Canyon together in the dormitory, stopped the mouse in their hands, and all of them showed surprise on their faces.

"Lin Shen actually asked us to join his subject?"

"Damn, what are you waiting for? Let's go now!"

"Lin Shen must remember us now, and will appoint us to eat good juice in the future."

"Let's go."

Afterwards, the four of them didn't stay for a moment. Of course, before leaving, they didn't forget to say something to their only passer-by teammate: "Sorry brother, Lin Shen has something to do with the four of us. You can start the next move." 』

Then the four of them surrendered, and the game was over. As for the swearing of this passer-by teammate, the four of them didn't care that much.

So soon, the four of them came to Lin Xiao's office, and Lin Xiao didn't talk nonsense with the four of them, and arranged the work for them directly, that is, according to his guidance, build a new computer on the relevant computing material software. Model.

Regarding this kind of thing, although the four people knew that they were probably here to do coolie work again, but they were not picky at all, and they were even moved to tears.

Their Lin Shen finally asked them to do research related to computing materials!

This simply made them tear up and didn't know what to say.

After all, they are majors in computing materials. As a result, they were first approached by Lin Xiao to do irrelevant programming work for several days, and then they were pulled into the Jinwu Project for a long time, and finally took on a modeling work.

It can be said that they have done things that have nothing to do with computing materials. If they hadn't relied on computing materials to play a role in fusion tungsten plates, they would even suspect that their computing materials were lonely.

And now, their Lin Shen finally remembered that the majors of the few of them are actually computational materials science!

Of course, the most important thing is that being able to participate in Lin Xiao's research related to computational materials science will also allow them to learn how the master uses computational materials methods to assist the research of materials science.

Therefore, they are looking forward to the future research.

Of course, Lin Xiao is also looking forward to it. With the help of these four people, his research progress will be faster.

Next, it depends on whether Panasonic's hydrogen fuel cell can seize the opportunity, or whether the lithium-sulfur battery and proton battery he wants to research can conquer the market with its superior performance.

……

In the following time, the situation on the earth continued to change subtly.

After the success of the Golden Crow Project, the influence is continuing to expand, and for the Golden Crow Energy Group, the next time will be a time to make money.

More than a dozen relatively wealthy countries have chosen to pay Jinwu Energy Group a reservation fee of several billion or an equivalent amount of resources, such as metal tungsten and other resources, and also agreed to a series of conditions. Then I look forward to Jinwu Energy Group going to their country to build a fusion power station.

Of course, Jinwu Energy Group did not give the specific construction time, but only said that it would be five years at the earliest and ten years at the latest.

In this regard, these countries can only accept it. After all, as the saying goes, 'If you don't buy, some people will buy'. If you want to avoid queuing for a long time before building, you have to pay in advance.

Moreover, a few rich and powerful countries, such as the oil tycoon in the Middle East, the United Arab Emirates, have directly reserved three places.

Of course, these oil guys came here to book fusion power plants, basically accepting that they, as big oil countries, are destined to usher in a period of recession. Recently, these countries have also increased oil production, lowered oil prices, and then tried their best to Sell ​​more oil in these last few years to make enough for the last wave.

In addition, there is another change in the situation of the whole world, that is, the vacillating centrists began to choose to invest in the bamboo screen, and those who originally pursued the free world also began to lean towards the bamboo screen.

Many people around the world have noticed such changes in the situation, and at the same time, they have also had more thoughts about future development.

Of course, the competition in the field of batteries has also become another round of undercurrent competition between Zhumu and Free World.

Although in this regard, countries that pursue a free world are still in a state of decline.

However, during the competition between the two sides in this field, another thing happened inadvertently.

……

Anhua Network Technology Company.

In Kong Huaan's office.

"In this way... it should be done."

Kong Huaan looked at the densely packed computer-specific program symbols on the computer screen, and nodded slightly.

The above is a new type of chip architecture that he completed after so long of research.

He adopted the suggestion given by Lin Xiao at the beginning, and finally completed the structure.

It combines the advantages of the reduced instruction set and the complex instruction set, and abandons the shortcomings between the two. It can be said that it is a brand new instruction set.

And such an instruction set, of course, can also be regarded as the most excellent instruction set today-although it has not yet been installed on a certain chip, it has only been simulated by a program on a computer, but Kong Huaan's heart is that There is such an intuition, or it can also be said to be self-confidence.

A smile that few people could see appeared on his face, and then he began to think about what to name this brand new structure.

The reason why the ARM architecture is called the ARM architecture is because its full name is Advanced Reduced Instruction Set Machine, and the first letter of the English name is ARM, and the X86 architecture did not have a unified name, but because its series of architectures all have an X86, so it is also It is called the X86 architecture.

Obviously, the structure he created now cannot be named in such a simple way.

According to his past naming habits, he would name it Anhua Architecture, but after a while, he remembered the help Lin Xiao gave him, like the original Anhua EDA software, Lin Xiao also helped him, and this architecture Lin Xiao also helped him, and now it should be named Lin Xiao.

After thinking for a while, his heart was moved, and then he renamed the file name: [Chief Architecture].

Nodding in satisfaction, this name not only shows his confidence in this structure, but also affirms Lin Xiao's contribution.

"The next step is to implement it on the chip."

In other words, he needs to design a chip based on the chief architecture, and then tape it out through a lithography machine, and then test the performance of the chip.

However, at this moment, his cell phone rang suddenly.

Looking at the caller, it was Xu Qing, the director of the R&D Department of Huaxia Chip Manufacturing Company.

At the same time, Director Xu Qing is also an academician. When designing the Pangu supercomputing processor, he was responsible for many important research and development projects. Of course, it was also at that time that Kong Huaan met this Academician Xu, and even, It also developed into a relationship of forgetting friends.

Of course, the most important thing is that Academician Xu is very optimistic about Kong Huaan's talent, so he also likes this young man. He often trains Kong Huaan, and often helps him contact some resources. , Kong Huaan was also quite grateful.

It's just that, at this time, why does Academician Xu Qing seek him?

Could it be that he recommended another order for his company?
Puzzled in his heart, he then connected the phone and said, "Academician Xu, what's the matter?"

"Hey, of course there is something, of course, first let you guess what happened."

It's just that Kong Hua'an, who has always been taciturn in front of outsiders, was not used to this academician, so he said, "I don't guess, you can tell."

Academician Xu Qing probably also guessed that he would have this reaction, so he simply didn't bother to show off, and said directly: "We have developed a superconducting chip!"

Hearing this news, Kong Hua'an was suddenly surprised.

"Superconducting chip?!"

Although room-temperature superconductors have been developed, and room-temperature superconducting chips have become possible, but it is still difficult to realize them.

Unexpectedly, it has been developed now!

Xu Qing laughed, obviously he was very satisfied with being able to surprise this young man who had never spoken much.

Then he said: "Yes, it has been developed. The first batch of superconducting chips has been taped out. After testing, these superconducting chips will be able to reach a clock frequency above 10GHz."

"10GHz..."

Hearing this frequency, Kong Huaan was even more surprised from the bottom of his heart.

In the past, the processor industry generally believed that the processor can run to 10GHz is already the limit, but for superconducting processors, 10GHz is just the beginning.

The clock frequency of the chip reflects the computing power of the chip. For ordinary silicon processors, the higher the clock frequency, the higher the calorific value. In order to ensure the life of the chip, the general processor will The clock frequency is limited, such as Intel's Core processor.

Of course, the method of overclocking appeared at this time. The higher the overclocking, it can bring a small degree of improvement to these CPUs or GPUs, etc., but at the same time it brings a relatively large power consumption and heat generation. improvement.

But I also said that this is for ordinary silicon chips, but for superconducting chips, the problem of heat generation is avoided because there is no resistance, thereby greatly increasing the clock frequency.

Therefore, superconducting chips can be said to be the most perfect chips in the future world.

And such a chip has now been realized!

However, after being surprised for a moment, Kong Huaan's heart moved.

Then he asked: "Then are you about to enter the second stream?"

"Well, we are designing a new chip. After the design is completed, we will start tape-out."

"I see." Kong Hua'an said, "Then, Academician Xu, I have a heartfelt request."

"Yo? Your kid also knows how to ask for help?" Xu Qing smiled, and then said: "Tell me, what do you want?"

"I have developed a new chip architecture. If you are designing a new chip, maybe you can consider designing it based on my architecture?"

Hearing what Kong Huaan said, Xu Qing was startled and exclaimed, "What did you say? You created a new chip architecture? Are you sure?"

"I'm sure."

"Totally yours?"

"It belongs to me completely... Oh, it should also belong to Chief Lin Xiao, because he also gave me a little help during the research."

Hearing this, Xu Qing immediately became serious, and said, "Very well done, Hua An, you come to the company now, and let's discuss other matters face to face."

"Ok."
