The world's richest man started by developing gutter oil

"I wonder to what extent Mr. Bridger means by supervision?" Sleater Christian asked with a smile.

"All source code related to AI technology will be handed over," said Bridger Mead.

"Haha, Mr. Bridger, this kind of thing is not something I can decide. I have to report this matter to my superiors." Sleater Christian said with a smile.

"Slit, if you can convince the company to hand over these codes, Black Rock Group is willing to give you a reward of 500 million US dollars." Bridger Mead said with a smile.

When Slit Christianwei heard the other party's words, the corner of his mouth twitched. He even doubted whether Bridger Midway was a fool. This amount of money was not even a fraction of what the Deep Blue Group gave him.

Not to mention the bonus that Deep Blue Group gave him last year was as high as 3700 million US dollars.

What's more, betraying the Deep Blue Group is equivalent to betraying the world's richest man. He would only choose to betray Han Chen because he was tired of living.

Maybe the very next day after he betrayed Han Chen, some black guy would rush into his house with a submachine gun and start shooting wildly.

"Bridger, these matters are not something I can take control of. I will report this matter to my superiors," said Sleater Christian.

"This is my business card. If you have any good news, remember to call me as soon as possible." Bridger Mead put down a business card and stood up and left.

China time October 2014, 10.
Gulina and Yin Ruoyue were having breakfast in the restaurant, while Han Chen was making an overseas call.

Sleater Christine called him several times last night, but unfortunately Han Chen had already fallen asleep and his phone was set to silent mode, so he didn't answer the call.

"Boss, the Ministry of Commerce sent someone to visit me last night." Slit Christine told Han Chen in detail what happened last night.

Even the fact that Bridger Mead wanted to bribe him was revealed.

"Slit, the company will not compromise with them. You should go to Wal-Mart and Lithia Auto and ask them if they can handle it. If they can't, the company will choose to give up its business in the United States.

Once BlackRock Group takes action, only the United States will ban Deep Blue in the future, and other countries will follow suit.

DeepBlue's business in many countries in Europe and America will be stopped. I will give you two options for you to choose.

The first option is to come to work in Huaxia, and your original position will not change. The second option is to leave Deep Blue Group, and the company will give you a severance pay. "Han Chen said.

After thinking for a while, Slit Christian said, "Boss, I need to discuss this matter with my wife."

"Well, it's up to you." Han Chen replied.

April 2014, 10, US time.

The Ministry of Commerce announced that Deep Blue Group’s artificial intelligence technology has a serious impact on national security, and the Ministry of Commerce requires Deep Blue Group to submit all artificial intelligence-related codes for review.

If Deep Blue Group cannot reach an agreement with them.

The Ministry of Commerce will completely ban Deep Blue's electronic and automotive products from entering the United States.

As soon as the news came out, the semiconductor sectors of the entire Nasdaq and Dow Jones fell three percentage points.

Those who did not receive the message thought that the end of the world had come.

"Fuck, why did the semiconductor sector fall so much?"

"These politicians are really used to being robbers. They actually asked Deep Blue to hand over all the codes. What's the difference between this and robbery?"

"No, the Ministry of Commerce only banned DeepBlue's electronic and automotive products from entering the United States. What does this have to do with our semiconductor industry in the United States?"

"There are huge implications here. As long as you understand the personality of the Deep Blue Group's boss, you will know that once the Ministry of Commerce bans these products, Deep Blue will definitely completely cut off cooperation with us, and then our semiconductor company will lose Beidouxing EDA.

Once our semiconductor companies lose Beidouxing EDA, it would be like a knight losing his weapon.

Our semiconductor industry will lag behind semiconductor companies in other countries in all aspects.

This is a disaster for the entire semiconductor industry.”

"Fuck, who on earth came up with this brainless idea? Deep Blue Group possesses the most advanced technology in the world. What's the difference between falling out with Deep Blue Group and closing the country to the outside world? God knows what other unknown black technologies Deep Blue Group possesses.

If Deep Blue Group shares these black technologies with other countries, who among our subordinates will be willing to follow us? You must know that there is only interest, not friendship, between countries. "

"I personally agree with the Ministry of Commerce's approach. Technology that cannot be mastered is very dangerous. Once Deep Blue's products flood the entire United States, Deep Blue will only need one order to stop all of our products from operating. Do you know how terrifying this is?"

"Deep Blue Group is just a private company, not a state-controlled company. Is it not as scary as you say?"

"Things are far more terrifying than you can imagine."

"The Ministry of Commerce's move is very stupid. Our companies are very dependent on the Chinese market. Once China retaliates, I don't know how many companies will go bankrupt and how many people will lose their jobs.

Aren’t our products also sold to China? Why isn’t China worried about our products? They just want to obtain Deep Blue’s technology.”

Some people are optimistic about this matter while others are pessimistic.

However, whether they are optimistic or pessimistic is beyond their control.

at the same time.

Intel, Nvidia, AMD, Fairchild Semiconductor, and Micron all signed a joint letter.

Some company CEOs even called the president's office directly.

Once America falls out with Deep Blue Group, they will not only lose Beidouxing EDA, they may also lose most of the global semiconductor market.

You should know that Deep Blue Group's R&D capabilities are extremely terrifying. In addition to its terrifying R&D capabilities, Deep Blue Group also masters a full set of chip production technology. What's more, the technology mastered by Deep Blue is several times ahead of them.

If Deep Blue had not been suppressing itself and not fully opening up its business, these companies might be on the verge of bankruptcy now. The Ministry of Commerce's comprehensive ban on Deep Blue would surely bring them disaster.

In any case they would not allow the Department of Commerce to ban Deep Blue's products from entering the United States.

Then they will definitely be implicated and face unprecedented retaliation from the Deep Blue Group.

This kind of retaliation is simply not something they can bear, as can be seen from the decline of the semiconductor sector.

As soon as the news came out, international funds were scared and withdrew for safety. These funds will not come back until the news is confirmed.

September 2014, 10, China time.

at the same time.

The Ministry of Commerce requires Deep Blue Group to hand over all AI-related source code back to China.

This incident also aroused the indignation of netizens.

"Fuck, what are these Americans going to do? A few days ago, they said Deep Blue wanted technology without borders. If Deep Blue doesn't agree, are they planning to rob them?" "Do you think President Han will give them a chance to rob them given his temper?"

"These people are used to being bandits. It's a pity that they met President Han. If Deep Blue's things weren't so expensive, I would have supported the Deep Blue Group."

"Why did they have to offend Deep Blue when they could offend anyone else? In fact, Deep Blue has been very restrained. So far, Deep Blue has only made high-end products, leaving the mid- and low-end markets to them. Mid- and low-end products are not difficult for Deep Blue to make.

Once Deep Blue enters the mid- and low-end market, do you think there will be any role for them?"

"It feels like they have hit a wall this time. Deep Blue is not something they can afford to offend."

"I think they are just making verbal threats. They will not turn against the Deep Blue Group."

"In fact, this matter is not as simple as you think. It is normal for them to be worried. If Deep Blue Group was not our Chinese company, we would have the same concerns as them. Things between countries are more complicated than you think."

Deep Blue Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Director's office.

At this time, Tu Jiaojiao was handling the daily affairs of the institute.

Just at this moment, a sweaty woman pushed open the office door without knocking.

"Director, we succeeded." Qian Yuanhui said breathlessly.

"What success?" Tu Jiaojiao asked in confusion.

"Director, AI has successfully predicted all the known proteins on Earth. The results predicted by AI are consistent with the data we know, and there is no error in any data," said Qian Yuanhui.

Qian Yuanhui is the director of the Science and Technology Research and Development Department of the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, which was established before July.

The so-called technology research and development department is the artificial intelligence drug research and development department that Han Chen asked Andrew Ng’s team and Tu Jiaojiao’s team to jointly form.

This department has been established for 9 months. They have been training AI for the past 9 months, and they completed the initial training just a week ago.

After completing the initial training, they asked the AI ​​to make protein predictions.

Predicting proteins plays a vital role in understanding life and developing new drugs.

"Really?" Tu Jiaojiao asked in disbelief.

“It’s true. We also used these data to deduce the delay of some known viruses. The deduced results are consistent with some existing studies. It took others several years to succeed, but we only needed half an hour to deduce using AI.

In addition, I also asked some groups in the institute to use AI to simulate their existing projects.

Several research groups are already experimenting with the results derived from AI," Qian said.

"Okay, okay, okay, Minister Qian, you have done a great job. I will report this to the boss. You just do the remaining finishing work, and I will give you a one-month vacation." Tu Jiaojiao said happily.

"Thank you, Director." Qian Yuanhui said with a smile.

"Go back and write a relevant report for me, and also write an AI application manual. I want to fully open up the use of AI." Tu Jiaojiao said with a smile.

"Director, our institute has too many research projects. If we want everyone to use AI, we need to install more servers. Otherwise, we won't be able to provide enough computing power," said Qian Yuanhui.

"How many more servers do we need?" Tu Jiaojiao asked.

"It is estimated that 100 million servers will be needed," Qian Yuanhui replied.

"One million units?" Tu Jiaojiao asked in surprise.

"Yes, it will take a long time to add so many servers. We also need to build a large computer room," said Qian Yuanhui.

"So how many servers do we have now?" Tu Jiaojiao asked.

"Currently, our institute has a total of 5 servers," said Qian Yuanhui.

"Okay, I will report this matter to the boss. As for the use of AI, you can arrange it." Tu Jiaojiao said.

One million servers is not a small amount of money. Even she, the director, is not qualified to approve it. This matter needs to be reported to Han Chen.

"Okay, Director, I'll go back to work first." Qian Yuanhui replied.

Office of the President of Deep Blue Group.

Han Chen rubbed his temples after seeing the email sent by Tu Jiaojiao.

The investment in 100 million servers is nothing for Deep Blue Group, but the performance of the current computing power cards is really too poor. When the next generation of technology comes out, it is estimated that 20 servers will be able to replace 100 million servers.

It also depends on whether their existing computer rooms can store so many servers.

Han Chen sent a message to Xiang Tao asking him to come to the office immediately.

Twenty minutes later Xiang Tao came to Han Chen's office.

After Xiang Tao closed the door, he greeted, "Boss Han."

"Mr. Xiang, is there any spare space in our existing data center?" Han Chen asked.

"Mr. Han, our existing data center is at full capacity, but the data center in Guizhou Xin'an is expected to be completed at the beginning of next year. The data center in Guizhou Xin'an can accommodate 300 million servers," said Xiang Tao.

So far, DeepBlue Network Security Company has deployed large data centers in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Hangzhou, Tianfu, Jinling, Jiaoao, Jiangcheng, Chang'an, Shancheng, Chuncheng, Longcheng, and Jincheng.

The total investment in these data centers has reached 800 billion RMB, and more than 800 million cloud servers have been deployed. DeepBlue Cloud has become the largest cloud service company in China. It now occupies 90% of the cloud service market, and the remaining 10% is occupied by Penguin, Qiandu and Ali.

Ali thought about selling its cloud server business in April.

It’s a pity that Deep Blue didn’t buy it because the price was not right, and Lao Ma was unwilling to sell the business at a low price, plus the other two companies were unwilling to buy it.

The Ali Cloud business just fell into disrepair in Ma's hands.

Both Baidu and Penguin are eligible to purchase servers from Shenlan, so neither company's cloud services are losing money.

Although DeepBlue Cloud has a 90% market share, they are still able to get a piece of the pie, and they are slowly expanding their cloud business.

"Please reserve space for 50 servers for me. Next year the company will need to deploy at least 50 AI servers." Han Chen said after thinking it over.

"Okay, Mr. Han." Xiang Tao replied. (End of this chapter)
