Chapter 159 Quantum Computer【Seeking Subscription Monthly Pass】

To be honest, before entering the museum hall, Xu Lei did not expect to unlock the exhibits of the first-level civilization this time.

With the current level of science and technology of Blue Star, there are still a few goals to be achieved before becoming a real first-level civilization. At least it must fully utilize the resources of the entire planet, unlike now where it is basically based on fossil energy.

However, Xu Lei was surprised, but he quickly regained his composure.

After all, the strength and resources he has now are different from those at the beginning. Even if it is an exhibit of a first-level civilization, he can still develop it with confidence.

At most some discount on performance.

What's more, even if it comes from the technology of the first-level civilization, it may not be the most high-end.

Another point surprised Xu Lei.

Originally, he thought that the exhibits from higher civilizations were stored on the upper level.

At the beginning of the research on the interior space of the museum, Xu Lei discovered that there were other spaces above the hall, but he was forced to give up because he couldn't find a way to go up.

Because the exhibits of the zero-level civilization that were unlocked several times before, this made him think that the booths in the hall were all the lowest-level zero-level civilization.

Now that the level [-] civilization has been unlocked, it means that the booths in the hall contain exhibits of level [-] and level [-] civilization.

As for the space on the upper floor, it is likely to be a second-level civilization exhibit.

Although there is no way up in the hall, I believe that as the influence continues to increase, the second-level civilization exhibits will definitely be unlocked, and then you should be able to enter the upper space.

After thinking about these situations, Xu Lei refocused his attention on the information screen in front of him.

Name: Quantum Computer
Level: Level [-] Civilization

Evaluation: indecision, quantum mechanics.

Influence: 0/500000
Collection unit: Science and Technology Museum of Cosmic Civilization

As the owner of this science and technology museum, the exhibits in the collection must be for Xu Lei. Previously, domestic high-end chips were stuck with overseas technology, and the museum unlocked the extreme ultraviolet lithography machine.

Now that quantum computers appear, Xu Lei is not too surprised.

"Quantum mechanics is indecisive when things happen. This sentence is not as simple as talking about it, but it can truly realize quantum hegemony."

"This time, I unlocked a good thing."

After finally figuring out the real situation of this exhibit, Xu Lei murmured thoughtfully, his mind running quickly to search for the relevant memories about quantum computers in his mind.

The so-called quantum computing refers to a physical device that follows the laws of quantum mechanics and performs high-speed mathematical and logical operations to store and process quantum information. It has the characteristics of fast operation speed, strong ability to process information, and a wide range of applications.

Because its computing power is countless times stronger than that of traditional digital computers, it can develop artificial intelligence more quickly, and make achievements in other fields quickly, so countries have launched in-depth research on this concept as soon as it was proposed.

And whoever develops a quantum computer first is equivalent to mastering quantum hegemony.

The speed of technological development in all walks of life will increase rapidly like a rocket.

Imagine.

If this quantum computer is successfully manufactured, the star pupil will undergo another fundamental change.

Possesses terrifying computing power comparable to vast galaxies.

At that time, it is estimated that the projects that the researchers in the research center are responsible for will be resolved in a few minutes.

No wonder the quantum computer is classified as a first-level civilization by the Science and Technology Museum. After all, with such a powerful computer, why not develop a first-level civilization.

As for the current global research on quantum computers, Xu Lei, as a dignified academician, knows a little bit.

In addition to the two different types of quantum computer research conducted by the Chinese Academy of Sciences in China, overseas laboratories and Guge are conducting similar research, and invest a large amount of money every year to ensure the progress of the research.

But although these forces often release the latest research results to the outside world, they can only realize the operation of more than 100 qubits at most.

This falls far short of the requirements of a quantum computer.

The so-called qubit is the object of quantum computing to store data, which requires the use of quantum algorithms to operate.

According to the standards given by the international community, at least thousands of qubits must be able to operate to be considered a real progress.

However, in order to realize quantum computing, there are also many technical difficulties. For example, qubits are easily affected by external environmental factors, and it is necessary to ensure that the computer works in a specific environment.

With Xu Lei's thinking running fast, a lot of ideas emerged in his mind to analyze various problems of quantum computers.

But soon Xu Lei came back to his senses, shook his head and temporarily put aside the messy thoughts in his head, and then skillfully clicked on the note at the bottom of the information screen.

I plan to transfer various technical knowledge about quantum computer design into my mind first.

After all, he is a layman in the field of quantum computing, and it is easy to make mistakes if he does not understand some places.

Decisions that are not conducive to subsequent progress are then made.

In this case, clarifying the technology first will undoubtedly solve a lot of troubles.

More importantly, combine the knowledge of quantum computers to formulate the most suitable manufacturing plan.

It can only be said that the quantum computer is worthy of being an exhibit of a first-level civilization. When the dense information and complicated formulas on the information screen came into view, even though Xu Lei was prepared, he couldn't help but gasped.

"Hi~"

"It's really scary!"

Fortunately, time is still in the museum, and there will be no negative effects on the body, otherwise I don't know how long it will take to transmit the information into my mind.

With the help of previous experience, Xu Lei did not hesitate too much after sighing, and immediately began to study and understand the above content.

……

I don't know how much time has passed, until Xu Lei stretched his waist and looked away from the information screen.

Only the shocked look on his face did not disappear.

Unexpectedly, the power of this quantum computer was far beyond his imagination.

There are currently two mainstream types of quantum computers, optical quantum computers and superconducting quantum computers.

There are very difficult technical and hardware problems.

I don't know how many years it will take to actually manufacture a quantum computer that can manipulate a sufficient number of qubits.

Although the quantum computer in the museum is of superconducting quantum type, it can theoretically control tens of millions of qubits.

The computing power it possesses is simply unimaginable.

Besides.

Related technical information also includes mature quantum algorithms and quantum operating systems.

These are technologies that are currently unsolvable.

However, Xu Lei's requirements are also relatively simple. He does not expect to be able to perfectly manufacture this quantum computer in the museum. As long as the operation of millions of qubits can be realized, it is enough to meet the requirements and realize true quantum hegemony.

It's just that before building this quantum computer, Xu Lei still has a problem to consider.

That is how to make up the influence of up to 50.

"There are too many requirements for influence this time. We must find a way."

Unlike the last time the influence of [-] was required to unlock the exhibits, this time it was directly multiplied by five times.

The key point is that this kind of large-scale high-tech equipment is destined to be impossible for ordinary users to consume. It can only exist in laboratories or large companies as the core computing power to help the development of technology and technology.

It is simply impossible to increase the influence to 50 points in this way.

According to the past experience of influence growth, unless users can use quantum computing.

When this idea appeared in Xu Lei's mind, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and a bold idea was born in his heart.

"If cloud computing is used, users may be able to enjoy the powerful computing services of quantum computing."

Yes.

Xu Lei still wants quantum computers to enter the world of ordinary people.

Although the major forces in the world are now researching quantum computers and striving to achieve quantum hegemony first, they mainly want to use them in military scientific research.

But if users can access quantum computers to process information through the cloud, it can be commercialized.

The point is that this is the fastest way to grow your influence.

At that time, the user's terminal device will be more like a monitor, which can have a certain storage capacity, but the information processing will be completed by the core quantum computer.

And due to the characteristics of quantum, even if the security protection software such as Star Shield is not installed on its equipment, it will not be attacked by the network.

Even with the help of quantum computers, terminal devices the size of mobile phones can have the same functions as computers.

I believe that by that time, the performance of the chip will not be worth caring about, because there is no need to install so-called high-performance chips.

But Xu Lei also understands that there is still a long way to go to truly realize this step.

Therefore, Xu Lei did not leave the museum space immediately, but carefully planned the next move.

In general, in order for users to process corresponding information by accessing quantum computers, in addition to manufacturing quantum computers first, it is also necessary to arrange quantum relay stations to solve quantum communication and a faster network environment.

Although there will be various difficulties in the middle, Xu Lei believes that with the technical knowledge he has mastered, he can solve them all.

The most important thing is that only when the growth of influence is guaranteed can new exhibits be unlocked.

In addition, once the quantum display terminal successfully enters the market, the carbon-based chips they have worked so hard to develop will lose their value. After all, the performance of carbon-based chips cannot be compared with quantum computing.

I don't know how long it has passed. When Xu Lei lost his consciousness from the museum, he saw a confident smile with a confident smile on his face, and then he walked to the private elevator, ready to go to the research center to officially announce the research on the quantum computer project.

It is said that the research and development of a technology company like Google has already set foot in the field of quantum computing, but as a future technology with advanced artificial intelligence, it is really inappropriate that there is still no achievements in this field.

It just happened to make up for this regret by the way today, and also brought a surprise to the major forces in the world.

　Thank you Su Jin for the 100 point reward!
