Game Dynasty

Chapter 264 Supercomputer

"I've seen shame, but I've never seen you so shame. 【】"

Liu Xiang sighed, smiled wryly and jumped to sit on the table.

Xi Xiaoding squinted at Liu Xiang, and moved his fingers rhythmically on the paper cup: "The mainframe will be released globally for Christmas, and today is December [-]th, and there are still two weeks left, but as of today, the game developers of various cooperation The merchants can only come up with less than [-] games."

More than half a year has passed since the console launch event. At that press conference that shocked the world's game industry, You won the support of almost all European and American console game developers in one fell swoop.However, for Japan, where the largest and most concentrated host game developers gather, support for the game is extremely limited.

As we all know, Japan is a paradise for global console games. In addition to having many video game manufacturers, there are also nearly half of the world's video game developers gathered there.If you can't get the support of those Japanese developers, even if Youdi's console is successful...it won't be a complete success.

After all, in that small island country, there are Nintendo, Sony, Sega... and other big names who can call the wind and rain in console games.

Xi Xiaoding, who basically left game development and turned to administration and business management, said such words at this moment, expressing his worries without a doubt.

Liu Xiang was stunned for a moment, stared at Xi Xiaoding for a full three seconds and then smiled.

"Isn't it? It's been more than half a year, and there are basically no Japanese versions of tm's games! And the procedures and sales channels in other countries are basically set up, but Japan has not yet been implemented." Xi Xiaoding was angrily He tore open the paper cup, and licked the last bite of ice cream with his tongue indecently, like a child in the third grade of elementary school.

Liu Xiang turned around, took a look at the still unfading calligraphy and painting, and then laughed.

"Xiao Ding, do you still remember our real intention to develop the console market?"

Xi Xiaoding stared at Liu Xiang who asked this inexplicably, and was stunned for a while, "Aren't you talking nonsense? To put it shortly, we want to grab the jobs of the Americans and the Japanese. To put it far away, or ideally, Is it to satisfy a certain guy to conquer your eyes, can't you go to the future? You are aiming at this area, so naturally you have to get involved."

"It's like that on the surface." Liu Xiang smiled, jumped off the table, and sat on the reception sofa beside him.

"It doesn't mean that our behavior has achieved a certain effect, but it means that the purpose of our behavior is to achieve this effect." Liu Xiang raised his finger and looked serious, "The reason why you eat Wuji Baifeng Pills is In order to treat your irregular menstrual period, but before the menstrual period is adjusted, you suddenly find that the nocturnal emission that has troubled you for many years has been cured! Is it because of this that you take Wuji Baifeng Pills to cure your nocturnal emission?"

Xi Xiaoding felt chills for a while, grabbed the ashtray and was about to throw it over to Liu Xiang: "Damn! You only ate black-bone chicken and Baifeng pills! Is it disgusting?"

"The development of the mainframe market, in addition to challenging the monopoly and gilding oneself, of course...a certain desire to conquer must also be satisfied." Liu Xiang picked it up and put it on the sofa as a pillow for a long time. Resting on the sofa in the office, "but more importantly, it is the beginning of our transition from software to hardware."

"This beginning is the first step for Lao Tzu to realize their dreams!"

As Liu Xiang spoke, his gaze gradually became hot.

dream!Liu Xiang's dream is to build a huge and unshakable gaming dynasty.In this dynasty, all actions will be based on You's will. Only in this way can you ensure that You Jing's spirit will never disappear, and Liu Xiang's ideals will never disappear!

And to establish such a dynasty... It is absolutely impossible to develop just a few games.

The office was silent for a while, Xi Xiaoding took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, took a big puff, and opened the "My" file of Liu Xiang's computer.

"No. 18, right." Liu Xiang smiled, watched Xi Xiaoding hold the mouse and added: "The plan sent by the Academy of Sciences the day before yesterday."

plan?Xi Xiaoding clicked on the file with some doubts, and his face changed drastically after taking a few glances!

"How is it? Are you scared?" Liu Xiang stood up, walked to the desk with some bitterness and excitement, "To achieve smooth data transmission, in addition to being based on 2, the server must use supercomputers to implement .Moreover, a supercomputer with a computing speed of 10 trillion operations per second can only provide computing needs for [-] terminals."

supercomputer!

Xi Xiaoding's lips trembled a few times, and finally he roared fiercely.

"Margo Peter!"

"Ten trillion times? The cheapest Sugon 4000 offer is 1 million RMB... [-] million RMB, [-] players...mlgb"

"What the hell!" Xi Xiaoding stood up angrily, "Five years later, when they develop it, we will have at least 300 million players, right? That's 300 billion for the server investment alone! How can we get [-] million players? Get your investment back?"

"Hehe..." Liu Xiang smiled at Xi Xiaoding's expression.

Yes, Dawning 03, released at the end of 4000, can indeed meet the needs of 3 or more player servers. 3 people per server is also the minimum goal set by Liu Xiang for an epoch-making game.Although Liu Xiang didn't pay much attention to supercomputers, he did know that in 2007, the world already had a supercomputer Blue Gene 300 with a peak operating speed exceeding [-] trillion operations.

Of course, Liu Xiang didn't expect that he could move the blue gene located in the US Department of Energy to serve as his own server.But he can foresee that with the improvement of computer level, even if a supercomputer with a calculation speed of 500 million times is needed as a server in five years, there should be no problem.

Supercomputers, if they want to run fast, they have to add a few more pieces

u just... (Of course, this is a fallacy.)

What shocked Liu Xiang was not the question of how long it would take to recover the investment as Xi Xiaoding said.Rather... a game that requires a supercomputer as a server, what kind of existence is that?Need to use a supercomputer to sit on the terminal of the server, what kind of data is there?

"Regardless of whether the investment can be recovered, you can hand it over to the laboratory to simulate how much data exchange can be accommodated by a server that requires ten trillion computing power."

"You want to go against it?" Xi Xiaoding's eyes lit up.

"Yes, I think, how many times can the gadgets made by these lunatics in the Academy of Sciences magnify ordinary game programs!" Liu Xiang smiled and slammed his fist on the table.

Although I don't know the technology of fully simulated visual game terminals, You have a set of dialectical theories.

In order to exchange data with smooth line of sight and achieve the effect of delay simulation, the graphics processing capability of the terminal is undoubtedly very important, and the network carrier is also very important.But the most important thing is the server!

According to the analysis of the laboratory established by the staff of the game R&D department involved in the console design, in order to achieve the full simulation effect, the data generated by the graphics processor and data processor of the game terminal must far exceed that of all current traditional games.As for how much it exceeds, there has been no conclusion. In order to process these data without delay, the data that the server needs to process will reach an unimaginable level.

Before the announcement from the Academy of Sciences came, Liu Xiang hadn't expected that a supercomputer would be required to act as a server, but now, Liu Xiang was a little depressed about what kind of freak the terminal was.

"There is no problem with inverse, just open a few prescriptions." Xi Xiaoding exhaled, "A simple calculation can actually lead to a conclusion that the amount of data generated by the terminal must exceed the data of a single server in traditional games. "

"The Academy of Sciences must be the first to study the simulation of war scenes. Every piece, every firework, and even every piece of soil must achieve precise positioning, and as long as the vision changes, these will have to be recalculated." Xi Xiaoding was a little annoyed Rubbing the back of his head, "Frankly speaking, I really don't know that there are so many lunatics in the country to do this thing."

"I don't know, anyway, our algorithm experts have been taken away."

With a wry smile, Liu Xiang pushed Xi Xiaoding out of the chair.

"Anyway, what we have now is money. Whatever the Academy of Sciences needs, we will give it! They want a supercomputer, and we will give them a supercomputer! They want 2, as long as I can make it for me, I will give them everything!"

Seeing Liu Xiang who was getting a little excited, Xi Xiaoding was stunned for a while.

"Old Liu, are you sure?"

Xi Xiaoding's "sure" was asking whether Liu Xiang really wanted to invest all his worth in that illusory simulation game?

Liu Xiang smiled: "Definitely and definitely."

On Christmas Day of 2004, You's fg mainframe went on the market with a sweeping attitude, and snow-white orders spread to You's headquarters like flying.at the same time,,!
