"Professor Zheng."

After receiving the Hua Luogeng Mathematics Award, Xu Nuo came forward and met Professor Zheng from the National Supercomputing Center and the Sunway TaihuLight Supercomputer Project that Li Yunxiao was talking about.

"Xiao Xu, I already know about you."

Professor Zheng and Xu Nuo walked out of the conference room together, and everyone was walking towards the canteen of Rabbit University of Science and Technology, because it was now time to have lunch.

Behind Professor Zheng, there is a young man wearing glasses.

He should be Professor Zheng's favorite disciple. After all, when an elderly professor like Professor Zheng comes to Rabbit University of Science and Technology to attend lectures, he usually brings an assistant with him, and such an assistant usually follows his best person.

students.

"Then our team can build a supercomputing center for enterprises?"

Seeing that Professor Zheng knew his purpose, Xu Nuo asked directly.

Normally, it would be difficult to find a team from the National Supercomputing Center to build a supercomputer for your company.

When Xu Nuo let Guan Ju design the Nanshan smart villa, he planned to use the basement floor of the villa next to Nanshan Lake as a place to install cabinets, and the area was sufficient.

Xu Nuo asked quickly.

Xu Nuo nodded.

Professor Zheng sighed, shook his head and said.

Professor Zheng looked at the young man in front of him and admired him very much.

Four hundred million, this is the highest specification supercomputer that Xu Nuo can ask Professor Zheng and his team to build for themselves.

Xu Nuo wants to dig an artificial Nanshan Lake next to the smart villa. Although the area is not particularly large, it doesn't matter. Just over one kilometer away from the Nanshan smart villa, there are two major rivers in Yuzhou.

Xu Nuo replied.

Xu Nuo immediately nodded and said: "Then Professor Zheng, just follow this scale."

Then there is the area of ​​the smart villa, which is enough to build your own supercomputer.

Xu Nuo said modestly.

Xu Nuo is full of confidence.

Such a natural environment, coupled with the relatively mature cooling technology of supercomputing centers, can fully solve the temperature problem of supercomputing, and there is basically no problem.

For example, the Tianfu Supercomputing Center built in Shucheng is located only two kilometers away from Xinglong Lake.

Professor Zheng told Xu Nuo the general situation.

There are currently eight national supercomputing centers in China, the closest to Yuzhou is the Tianfu Supercomputing Center that was completed a few years ago.

"These days, even if you have money, you may not be able to build a large-scale supercomputing center. I think you know the reason, Xiao Xu, right?"

After selling 4 sets of AI systems to the military and space agencies, Xu Nuo received 3.4 billion. Excluding the 500 million budget for filming "Transformers" and the 250 million for the construction of the Nanshan Villa, the company expanded its scale and operations in the first phase.

Of the cost of 300 million, Xunuo now still has 2.35 billion available funds.

If Xu Nuo asked Professor Zheng and his team to build a large-scale supercomputer for him, he would definitely use Sunway 26010 processor.

"Our company has sufficient cost budget."

Xu Nuo asked again.

If an emerging company like Xu Nuo's Real Media Technology Company needs a supercomputer, Professor Zheng will naturally be happy to help.

After all, the current situation in the international chip industry is very complicated, and it is not just that you can build a better supercomputer if you have money.

After all, their AI technology is also a very important cutting-edge technology for the domestic development of Rabbit.

"It seems that you have done a lot of homework, Xiao Xu."

"Of course it is in Yuzhou, and I have chosen Nanshan Lake, which is only more than one kilometer away from the river in a straight line. It has lakeside, riverside and other conditions that are conducive to heat dissipation."

But even the National Supercomputer Center actually conducts commercial operations with the outside world.

"What if I want to build a large-scale supercomputing center like Sunway TaihuLight?"

It seems that the required space of Nanshan smart villa can be fully satisfied.

"Professor Zheng, judging from the current situation, what scale of supercomputer can I build?"

Professor Zheng told Xu Nuo the general situation.

"Have you chosen the location for completion? The supercomputing center still has very high requirements for heat dissipation."

For example, if a certain company's research data requires supercomputing for calculation and analysis, then as long as you are willing to pay, you can use the large supercomputer of the National Supercomputing Center.

"A large supercomputer of this scale?"

"I just did some homework, and I have to worry about Professor Zheng and your team for super calculation."

Within the cabinet, 4 super nodes composed of 32 computing plug-ins are distributed. Each plug-in is composed of 4 computing node boards, and one computing node board contains 2 "Sunway 26010" high-performance processors, that is,

It is said that a cabinet has 1024 processors.

With such a large amount of money, even the largest supercomputing center can build another one. Unless it is a supercomputing center that can surpass the Fugaku Supercomputer in its small days and compete for the world's number one, the research and construction cost may not be this 23.5

One hundred million can be won.

The location Xu Nuo chose to build the smart villa has two favorable conditions: lakeside and riverside.

"OK."

"Sunway TaihuLight is equipped with a 40,960-unit Sunway 26010 high-performance processor. I have asked for you. If you want to build a supercomputer, Sunway Technology can provide a Sunway 26010 for about 15,000 yuan.

The total budget for the completion of supercomputing is about 400 million yuan."

"Uh-huh."

The Sunway TaihuLight supercomputer in Xicheng is composed of 40 computing cabinets and 8 network cabinets. Each computing cabinet is slightly larger than a household double-door refrigerator.

When Professor Zheng heard this, he was slightly surprised: "The cost is very high."

If the supercomputer that Xu Nuo wants to build has a processor of about 15,000 yuan, it will basically consist of a dozen computing cabinets and several network cabinets.

Rabbit’s Tianhe-2 supercomputer has been greatly affected due to chip limitations.

The original research and development cost of Sunway TaihuLight was about 1.7 billion. When this supercomputer was released, it ranked first in the world in supercomputing rankings. However, now, Sunway TaihuLight has ranked first in the world.

Six.

Later, Sunway TaihuLight adopted an independent instruction set and a Sunway processor with completely independent intellectual property rights - Sunway 26010.

To know.

"If your company wants to develop supercomputing, it shouldn't need to be as large as a national supercomputing center. After all, the cost is too high. So entry-level or slightly better supercomputing, as long as the chip can be guaranteed

Under the premise, our team can build it for you."

Since supercomputers have extremely high requirements for heat dissipation, supercomputing centers usually choose to be built on the seaside, lakeside or riverside.

The two came to the third floor of the cafeteria, where Rabbit University of Science and Technology prepared lunch for the professors and experts participating in this event.

"Let's sit together. I'll talk to you in detail about super calculations during dinner."

Professor Zheng asked Xu Nuo to sit with him for lunch.

"OK."
Chapter completed!
