On the first day of April, a major event took place in the computer industry.

The Quantum Computer Research Team of the Chinese Academy of Sciences suddenly announced that it has made significant progress in the research of quantum computers! The head of the research team announced that they have developed a quantum computer processor based on carbon-based semiconductor technology, which will be unprecedented and groundbreaking compared to other research in the field of quantum computers.

According to relevant sources, the processor mainly uses some of the features of the Mayorana Fermi, and the performance exhibited by the present has reached 90 qubits.

When things happened, many research dogs working in the field of integrated circuit design and information technology research had just finished the weekend holiday and came to the work unit with their sleepy eyes.

When they saw the news through various channels, many people subconsciously glanced at the calendar and confirmed that today’s 4 number was not even a strange expression on his face.

90 quantum bit quantum computers!

Is this special going to heaven?

After learning about the situation, almost all the people who are engaged in related field research, who are just a little bit of a side, are beginning to frantically retrieve relevant research results in the database.

However, many people are disappointed that they can’t find a thesis about this “90 qubit” except for that news.

Not to mention thesis.

Even the research team seems to have come out of the stone, and many people have never heard of it before. In addition to the academic leader is still a little bit of a head, in the field of quantum computing sent a few of thesis, others want to find a few pieces of the hand to get an area to be anxious.

This feeling is like a “big brother” of LV5 in Novice Village, with a group of younger than LV3 pulled the team, the result is the same as the elite BOSS of LV10.

This metaphor may not be appropriate, but it is absolutely enough.

A similar situation has not been seen, no matter which line can occasionally happen, some stories of amaze the world with a single brilliant feat.

Even so, this time it is too awkward.

The research team just declared that they did it, but did not give any results.

However, even if there are many doubts, not everyone arbitrarily believes that this matter must be false.

After all is the team of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the funds for the state’s key scientific research projects, the consequences of fraud on the results may be more serious than no results.

It is precisely because of this, whether it is academic or industrial, the results claimed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences are different.

At the forum of a well-known university in China, the engineering dogs of integrated circuit design, because this news has already broken their heads.

【really! Why can’t you even get the results and make people fools? 90 qubits, or standard quantum computers using quantum gates, have to step on Google’s quantum annealing algorithm into the mud. Most of the time I see it is a fraudulent fund! 】

[Impossible, this is the research team of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, I think it is still a national key scientific research project. 】

[The key scientific research projects have collapsed. Has Hanxin’s business been over for 20 years? The memory is so bad! 】

Can you mention that? 】

[Oh, if our scientists, everyone can be as realistic as the academician of the army.” 】

[Cheats are all available in World, not just us! It’s good to be able to feed 1.5 billion people! 】

Because the debate was too fierce, in order to prevent the situation from getting out of control, the forum administrators did not come out to limit the topic.

The quarrel that took place on the forum was just a microcosm of the discussion on this topic across the web.

A similar argument is not just about a college forum. From Weibo to the penguin group, it seems that everyone can see the voice of people talking about it.

In addition to the voices of these laymen, similar disputes have occurred in the technical field.

Relatively speaking, the voices of these arguments are relatively rational and relatively professional, and they are mainly concentrated in the real sense.

For example, at a recent Internet Security Summit, experts from the Information Security Research Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences suggested that the growing quantum computer may pose a threat to information security and must be addressed in advance.

In the discussion on this topic, many people have put forward some constructive suggestions.

And it was mentioned repeatedly by Lu Zhou in the letter sent to Changan Street – replacing the more secure encryption algorithm.

At the same time, the Pacific Ocean is on the other side.

In the building of Microsoft’s headquarters, Nadella was sitting in the CEO’s office, looking at the report in his hand with a brow.

The work of quantum computers has been raging on the Internet. It is not just a discussion in China, but also the voice of discussion in North America.

Most of these people think that this matter is a high probability or an artificial falsification.

But others can think so simplely, Nadella, who is Microsoft’s CEO, is afraid to take it lightly.

So far, the country on the other side of the Pacific has created too many miracles that have made him stunned.

At this time the office door was pushed open, and a tall man walked in.

If anyone who is engaged in the direction of quantum computing is standing here, you will be surprised.

This man is not someone else, the director of the Lockheed Martin Quantum Computing Center…or the former director, Schmidt Professor.

At present, the Schmidt Professor is obviously working for Microsoft. There is nothing strange about it. It is just that there is no news in the industry about this.

“You looking for me?”

“Yes,” put down the report in his hand, Nadella looked forward to the Smither, who stood at the door, and said, “What do you think about the quantum computer of the recent Chinese Academy of Sciences?”

“The one with 90 qubits?” There was a faintly discernable ridicule on his face. The Schmidt Professor pushed his glasses and said with impunity, “They live in their dreams.”

Hearing this sentence, Nadella raised her eyebrows gently.

“Oh?”

Looking at the expression asked on Nadella’s face, Schmidt Professor continued in an unquestionable tone.

“No one knows more about the technical route of Mayorana Fermi, and we are at the forefront of World in this direction. It is impossible to do 90 qubits with the current technology. This is not technical bottleneck. But theoretical bottleneck! If they can do it, then we can at least see how they solve the problem of quantum entanglement collapse from a theoretical level.”

This is not a problem that can be solved by simply reducing the noise.

If this is really the case, the subject will not be so slow.

Nadella frowned.

“What do you mean… are they bragging?”

“The big probability is like this!”

Looking at the expression on the face of Schmidt Professor, Nadella was sighed in relief, but he felt that the worry that was in his heart could not be completely put down.

After Schmidt Professor left, he repeatedly examined the report in his hand with obsessive-compulsive disorder, especially checking the list of the research team that his subordinates took to collect strength and tried to Find a familiar name above.

However, he checked every letter and did not find the name that made Silicon Valley talk about it.

Is it really a bluff?

Looking at the sky outside the office window, Nadella suddenly had some uncertain ideas.

However, he has a hunch in his mind.

Every choice that I make next may affect the future of Microsoft in this contest about quantum computers…
