I participated in the development of EVA

"Five times? Not bad. It's worth continuing the research."

This five times is not five times that of a personal computer, but a comparison between a biological brain and the supercomputer in the base that combines the current cutting-edge computer technology. In other words, a personal computer is five times the supercomputer. Even if the performance of a prototype machine made according to the Three Sages' architecture is severely compromised, it can at least reach ten times.

This achievement is already very exaggerated. As long as the existing supercomputing technology can be applied to the biological brain, computer performance can be improved by at least several decades.

Ikari Fumihiko thought for a moment before speaking.

"Form a computer team to explore this potential?"

"Ah."

Although Naoko Akagi was a little disappointed with this achievement, she was also aware that investing higher-performance computers in the research could greatly speed up the research progress.

Fumihiko Ikari originally wanted to let Ibuki Megumi handle the matter over the phone, but in the end he went to the director's office in person.

Ibuki Huimei was a little surprised.

"Are you done? Didn't they say it would take at least a month for the results to come out?"

"No, but we have achieved some interim results, and we plan to use this result to build a supercomputer. Um... the project team is temporarily unable to allocate manpower, so I plan to form a new team to be responsible for this aspect."

Ibuki Huimi thought for a moment before speaking.

"If you don't consider the confidentiality regulations, we can indeed transfer some of the relevant personnel. It's just that it's a bit difficult to form a complete team. You'd better communicate directly with the senior management about this matter."

Ikari Fumihiko nodded, went to the computer and logged into his account.

He glanced at the previous email about Asuka and didn't care since the top management hadn't replied yet. The Three Sages System project team was like a bottomless pit, swallowing up all kinds of resources. The top management was indifferent and must have been paying attention to the progress. Therefore, there was no need for him to explain the situation, nor was there any need to fabricate data or make empty promises. He just briefly edited a paragraph.

[Establishing a biological brain supercomputing research team, but lacking a large number of relevant personnel. 】

I received a reply almost as soon as I sent the email.

【agree. 】

He was sure that even if he didn't send this email, the top management would form a team to conduct research in this area.

329. Not Enough Time

(Some parts are repeated, please forgive me for my full attendance. The manuscript fee depends entirely on full attendance. I don’t have enough time, and the remaining words will be sent out in the free chapters later. There is a dividing line below)

Fumihiko Ikari originally wanted to let Ibuki Megumi handle the matter over the phone, but in the end he went to the director's office in person.

Ibuki Huimei was a little surprised.

--------

After seeing Ikari Fumihiko finish his work, Ibuki Megumi, who was standing in the distance, spoke.

"How about it?"

"I got a reply almost instantly. I guess even if I don't submit an application, the top management will still conduct relevant research."

“Is this a big achievement?”

"If we can apply existing supercomputing technology to biological brains, it will be hundreds of millions times more powerful than current supercomputers, and this is still a conservative estimate."

Ibuki Huimi was shocked this time.

"Isn't this too exaggerated? According to the conventional international measurement method, supercomputer performance can be improved by about 2000 times every year... If this is the case, it means that it is years ahead of the current situation? That's not right! Didn't you say decades before? Are you sure it's million times, not million times?"

"Fifty thousand is just an estimated number. In fact, the annual performance improvement of supercomputers is much greater than this number."

Ibuki Huimi still couldn't believe it.

"Even if that's the case, it's at least hundreds of years ahead, not decades, right?"

Is it 100 million times exaggerated?

exaggerate!

But it is far less exaggerated than what Ibuki Huimi understood. It mainly depends on who you compare it with.

Ikari Fumihiko was stunned for a moment, then he realized that he had not explained the matter clearly before.

"The billion times refers to the supercomputers used in our institute. If compared with the data of national-level supercomputers, they are decades ahead."

Although the supercomputer used by the institute is the most advanced supercomputer today, its performance is between ordinary supercomputers and national-level supercomputers.

Seele is very powerful, but it does not have the ability to build a national-level supercomputer.

"Even so, this improvement is dramatic enough that it may even make computers obsolete completely."

Ibuki Huimi sighed like this.

Perhaps influenced by Akagi Naoko, Ikari Fumihiko shook his head.

"It's hard to say. These are just theoretical data. We need to practice to know whether they can be successfully implemented. In addition, biological brain technology is not yet mature, and it is still unknown what defects it has."

Ibuki Huimi didn't say anything, but a thought flashed through her mind.

This power is enough to... overturn the world!

The current interim results are already so exaggerated. Once the complete version of the Three Sages System is developed, it is absolutely no exaggeration to say that it can easily overturn the entire world.

She suddenly felt a little hopeless that Fumihiko Ikari and Naoko Akagi would complete this project.

This will undoubtedly further enhance the strength of the organization.

If it only had EVA, the organization would not pose much of a threat to the world, at least before the problem of EVA power supply was solved. But once a supercomputer like the Three Sages System was successfully developed, as long as it continued to develop secretly like this for a few decades, not to mention the development of other technologies, just by solving the problem of EVA power supply, the organization would have enough power to overturn the world.

"..."

He raised his head and opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but his worries faded when he saw Ikari Fumihiko.

If I can think of these things, Ikari Fumihiko can definitely think of them too.

Since Fumihiko Ikari is still participating in this research, there must be a way to check and balance it.

If Ikari Fumihiko knew what Ibuki Megumi was thinking at this moment, he would definitely be confused.

Is there anything I can do?

I don't even understand the most critical 'personality transplant' technology, what else can I do?

He doesn't worry about that.

Because he knows that time is not enough and the apostles will attack in a few years, and he knows the plot of the original novel, so Seele will not secretly give the whole world a surprise. Moreover, Seele is not the only force in the whole human race. In the past, when the world was in chaos, Seele could fish in troubled waters secretly. Now that order has been restored, every move of Seele will be watched by various forces.

The Three Sages System can indeed allow Seele to develop various technologies that surpass current technology in a short period of time, but technology is technology, and if you want to truly develop technology, you must use various resources.

Ordinary resources are fine, but once precious resources are involved, clues will be detected.

and……

There is no airtight wall in the world.

Being able to control the situation now does not mean that we can still control the situation in the future.

Just like Sakuragi Haruna's team, which exists because of concerns about the organization's abuse of EVA's power, is a very big uncertainty factor. Although Ikari Fumihiko is no longer in contact with this team, he still pays more or less attention to it after becoming the director. This team has not only not disbanded, but has even come to the fore and received support from many middle and grassroots members.

In addition to these considerations, he also understood that Naoko Akagi would restrict the authority of the Three Sages System.

Without being able to crack the key technology of personality transplantation, it would be impossible to obtain the highest authority of the Three Sages System.

After chatting with Ibuki Huimi for a while, Ikari Fumihiko returned to the project.

"How about it?"

"Passed."

"Oh."

Naoko Akagi also knew that senior management was paying attention to the progress of the project team, so she was not surprised that the new team was able to pass the review so quickly.

Just a little curious.

“Should we transfer personnel here, or conduct relevant research in other research institutes?”

Obviously she knew more about the organization than Fumihiko Ikari.

Ikari Fumihiko shook his head.

"I didn't ask. No matter what, once the research results are out, they will definitely be used here first. Let the top management plan the specific details."

"You are really lazy."

"I just know my own limitations. The higher-ups won't let me get involved too much in this area."

17:22:40

Completion

Naoko Akagi had some understanding of the conflict between Fumihiko Ikari and the top management, which stemmed from the top management's suspicion of Fumihiko Ikari. Her situation was better than Fumihiko Ikari's, and the top management did not trust her much either.

She didn't say anything, but just turned her gaze back to the screen in front of her.

Just as the top management does not trust them, these people also lack trust in the top management to a certain extent. This distrust comes from not knowing what the top management is trying to do.

She didn't want to wake up one day and find that the Third Impact had not yet occurred, and the world was burning because of the ambitions of a certain group of people.

The research continued like this until the supercomputing team received news a week later.

The director, Fumihiko Ikari, came out to welcome the team from Germany.

"Director Ikari, I have often heard of your name. Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. You can call me Professor Langley."

"Well, hello, Professor Langley, this is Professor Akagi..."

The two exchanged a few polite words before getting down to business.

"Professor Akagi will coordinate with you on the technical aspects."

After saying that, he made room for the two to talk.

At this time, Fumihiko Ikari noticed that there was a petite figure who didn't fit in among the team. She looked about the same age as Shinji Ikari, only about five years old. The most eye-catching thing about her was not her delicate face like a doll, but her dull eyes without any spirit, and the shabby doll in her arms.

Without anyone introducing her, Fumihiko Ikari recognized this former goddess at a glance.

One of the original heroines.

Shikinami Asuka Langley.

At this moment, she obviously has not yet gotten over her mother's death and is still immersed in grief.

He was stunned.

isn't it?

Did the top management really bring Asuka here?

17:23:02

330. Almost went astray——

Asuka's appearance here was really beyond Ikari Fumihiko's expectations.

Perhaps seeing his confusion, a member stepped forward to explain the situation.

"Captain Ikari, this is the team leader's daughter. Uh, she just lost her mother not long ago. Um... the team leader brought her with him for easier care."
