Chapter 414 Director Xu’s GPU Concept Nasdaq Out of Control

Any group activity with commercial value cannot escape the clutches of capitalists and politicians.

Including the World Cup.

It is rumored that the reason why Wajima won the right to host the World Cup is because after the Asia-Pacific economic crisis, Wall Street urgently needed Wajima’s rejuvenation, so that Wajima’s products could go out to facilitate the next harvest.

It is rumored that Nanbangzi took half of the right to host the World Cup because Zheng Mengzhen of the Nanbangzi Football Association bribed FIFA executives.

It is rumored that Director Xu won the 15-minute opening ceremony of the World Cup in Seoul because the Iron Sheet Company gave the Nanbangzi Football Association 10 billion US dollars.

It is rumored that Director Xu won the Yokohama closing ceremony of the World Cup because the Iron Sheet Company gave Wajima Council a total of 20 billion US dollars.

Of course, no one knew that Director Xu not only didn’t spend a penny, but also made Washima owe nearly 2000 billion US dollars.

As for who this director Xu is.

He is the Master He from the East, the Minister of Finance in North Germany, the dog-selling boy in North America, the Gutai in the hearts of the people in South Bangzi, the doll who was pricked by needles in the hands of the Japanese island capitalists, and the lingering drug lord around the world. Satan in the dream.

But no matter how it is called, whether it is a good name or a bad name, in various circles, the image of Director Xu has already penetrated into the hearts of everyone on the home planet.

It can even be said that seeing this boy who has no bright spots other than being handsome, even the natives of non-remote tribes will shout: Oh my god!

At this moment.

Under the watchful eyes of at least 20 billion viewers around the world, the dog seller is demonstrating another game supported by German capital, Meteor Butterfly Sword.

This is an action role-playing 3D game. Before German capital invested in related companies, the game could have become a popular stand-alone game.

After the German capital became a shareholder, on the basis of the 'EPIC Unreal Engine', some functions of the 'Physical Variable Simulation Engine' of the Osawa Mechanical Research Institute were added, giving it a 'real sword collision', which improved the game quality to a higher level.

Coupled with the increased holdings of X-series graphics cards and XLEDs, the screen that was once like a sticker has become extraordinarily full, cold and thorough, presenting players with an unprecedented sense of heaviness.

Xu Fei manipulates the character, fights with the computer-controlled NPC for a while, calls out the octopus graphics card that supports the game, and related parameters, and puts them on the XLED outdoor screen sponsored by Xinri Co., Ltd.

Immediately stepped onto the vast stage, facing the whole world.

"If you listen patiently to what I have said today, if you generate some ideas and take actions, I believe you will have a place in the future world."

Xu Fei started the custom-made 20x50m super large XLED outdoor screen, "As we all know, the computers and smartphones we use contain a CPU and a GPU."

"CPU means the central processing unit, which is used to process information and run programs. It has a complex logical structure, high operating efficiency, and many functional extensions. If a computer does not have a CPU, it cannot work."

"GPU means a graphics processor, which is used to process graphics data and perform simple calculations. It has repetitive simple logic, efficient graphics processing capabilities, and stable and reliable external image output. If a computer does not have a GPU, then we You can’t see the image that the UI presents to us.”

As Xu Fei said, he called up the CPU and GPU comparison chart, "The complex logic of the CPU makes it look like a top professor. The simple and repetitive logic of the GPU makes it look like a group of elementary school students."

"Therefore, the computing power of the CPU is far greater than that of the GPU."

"It's like, you ask a top professor CPU to calculate complex formulas, and the top professor can give the answer after doing some calculations."

"Primary school students' GPUs can only add, subtract, multiply, and divide. They don't know what is a root sign, what is a π value, and what is a function. They will never be able to calculate the results of complex formulas."

"As a result, in the traditional cognition in the field of electronics, the GPU will never be able to replace the CPU."

"This leads to the fact that a high-performance graphics card must be matched with a CPU that 'matches its computing power' in order to exert its maximum performance and allow users to experience the best results."

"But today, my X-series graphics cards will subvert cognition and push the global industry into the 2.0 era."

……

Silicon Valley.

The outdoor screens also made of XLED, including corporate blackboards, employee computers, and cafeteria TVs in many technology companies, are all broadcasting the closing ceremony of the World Cup.

Huang Jianxin, the founder and CEO of Nvidia, sat in the conference room with many senior managements of enterprises, watching quietly.

Xiaobu visited Dongfang and brought back news that Xu Fei was about to enter the field of graphics cards, which made the North American Science and Technology Alliance extremely vigilant.

Xu Fei is in control of 3Dfx, and 3Dfx, as a leading company in the field of graphics cards in the 90s, not only has original 3D acceleration technology, but also has unparalleled patents on rendering, transmission, and conversion.

If it weren't for the strong alliance of Nvidia, ATI, AMD, Intel and other giants, forcing hardware manufacturers to no longer be compatible with 3Dfx's voodoo series graphics cards, and at the same time secretly detaining many shareholders of the other party, forcing investors to agree to transfer shares, perhaps the world today is still The world of voodoo series graphics cards.

If Xu Fei relies on the foundry capabilities of the West Factory and the South Factory to support 3Dfx to make a comeback, NVIDIA, ATI, etc., no one can stop it.

Fortunately, Xiaobu tried his best to tear his face and risk losing a big ticket warehouse, so he rejected the plan of Iron Sheet Company to fully acquire 3Dfx,

Then he led the Western Science and Technology Alliance and urgently signed a 'Mutual Assistance Agreement'.

It roughly means that no chip manufacturer can authorize any processor technology of Ironhide, otherwise the group will attack it.If Xu Fei forces the chip manufacturers cooperating with Daze to hand over their technology, the Western Science and Technology Alliance would rather suffer serious losses than withdraw from Daze's foundry sequence.

The parties to the agreement include not only Nvidia, AMD, and Intel, but also analog electronics companies such as Texas Instruments.

Even to be on the safe side, Xiaobu instructed AMD to forcibly acquire Canada's ATI, and then hollowed out the technical staff of 3Dfx.

In this way, the Western Science and Technology Alliance has completed the "technical containment" of Ironhide, or in other words, no matter what kind of graphics card developed by Ironhide, it will involve the technology of the Western Science and Technology Alliance.

However, Xu Fei is a veritable mechanical engineer, electrical engineer, electronic engineer, top physicist, and top material scientist on his home planet, and no one can guarantee that this guy will "do not take an unusual path".

Therefore, when Xu Fei stepped onto the stage of the World Cup closing ceremony, everyone in the Western Science and Technology Alliance was watching him.

Suddenly.

The assistant to the CEO of Nvidia hurried into the conference room.

"Mr. Huang, 3 minutes ago, Romney sold all the crude oil stocks in his hand, bought 32 billion shares of our company in batches, bought 106 billion shares of Intel in batches, and bought AMD in batches. 17 billion shares, and purchased 5 million shares of ATI in batches..."

Huang Jian, the founder and CEO of Nvidia, said in the news that his eyelids jumped.

Obviously, this is the first time in half a year that Xu's stock trading method has reappeared.

He looked towards the office area next to him, "Did you see it clearly?"

The technician in charge of analyzing the graphics card in Xu Fei's hand paused the zoomed-in demonstration screen and shook his head helplessly, "Mr. Huang, the X-series graphics card in Xu Fei's hand has a very strange structure, and it seems to have a radio frequency chip and a digital-to-analog converter. It’s different than any graphics card we know of today.”

"The game effect that Xu Fei demonstrated just now, can we do it?"

"If the next-generation graphics card adopts a 90nm production process, it can almost be tied, but we do not have a supporting physical variable simulation engine, nor a supporting XLED display enhancement technology."

"So, X-series graphics cards pose a great threat to our products?"

"Yes, the threat is great, but it is impossible to determine whether the other party has adopted our technology."

"I see."

Huang Jianxin was silent for a moment and contacted Wall Street.

Xu Fei will definitely not adopt the technology of the Western Science and Technology Alliance, otherwise the Iron Sheet Company will face an astronomical fine, and if Xu Fei does not pay the fine, it is tantamount to breaking the rules of the game.

Once there are no rules, let alone Ironhide, all mobile phone manufacturers in the East will face a devastating blow.

In this way, Xu Fei did not adopt the technology of the Western Science and Technology Alliance, but produced a high-performance graphics card. Now he blatantly shows Xu's stock trading method. The other party must be planning to short Nvidia, ATI, AMD, and open up the X series graphics card. Expand the soil.

So Huang Jianxin reminded Wall Street to prepare the opponent to attack Renipfei.

"Since you are going to go short, let's go short first, then go long, and trap you shit-stirring sticks in Nasdaq."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Xu Fei on the screen, introducing the structure and technology of the X-series graphics card.

"Like I said before, a CPU is a top professor, and a GPU is a bunch of schoolchildren."

"In terms of computing, the GPU will never be as good as the CPU."

"But when we study technology, we must learn to think in reverse."

"Compared with CPU, the logic of GPU is simple and repetitive. It is only for composition and rendering. Its only advantage is 'many people'. It may be 1000 elementary school students, it may be 1000 million elementary school students, or it may even be 10 billion. Primary school students."

"On this basis, if we build a database..."

"Well, the database. During the interview, I described what I think AI is. At that time, I also introduced what a 'database' is."

"The database includes our most common things, such as my mouth, which is 'mouth' in the database, such as the flags in the hands of fans in Area A in the audience, which is 'flag' in the database."

"It can be said that the database contains the data of everything in the world, such as the Olympic formula and answers, such as frequently asked questions and answers, such as diagnosis and treatment plans and follow-up care plans, such as car-making technology and production processes, such as biological reproduction and contraceptive methods, and even human Can't eat shit."

"In short, as long as the 'database' is large enough, we humans can use it to solve 99% of the problems in life."

"So, when I ask a top professor an extremely complicated question, the professor needs three days and three nights to answer it."

"And when the primary school students connect to the database, I throw the same question to the primary school students. One billion primary school students search for the answer from the database. Affected by the directory, level, etc., the primary school students need at most 10 second. Even after training, they only need to 1 seconds."

"In other words, the professor needs to do calculations to get the answer. Primary school students don't need to use their brains, they just need to follow the established route to find the answer."

"Some people may ask, who can guarantee that there must be an answer in the database?"

"Therefore, there is an artificial mechanism in the database, which includes all the scientific research institutes of the Ironhide Company. When elementary school students can't find the answer, the question will be fed back to the scientific research institute. At that time, thousands of scientific researchers will work together to help solve the problem. question."

"The final answer is definitely more accurate than that of top professors."

"If you understand what I said, let me ask you another question, CPU or GPU+database, who is more powerful?"

"If you are still not sure, let me tell you that GPU+database can completely replace CPU, but it requires a process, which is 'training'."

"When we train the graphics card, the future graphics card + database will become the AI ​​I described."

"That's why, you who own the X-series graphics expansion dock are the first technology pioneers to experience the future AI!"

After Xu Fei finished speaking, the 'Machine VS Machine' puzzle game prepared in advance by Iron Skin Company was presented in turn on the super large XLED outdoor screen behind it.

Chess: The CPU machine is defeated by the GPU with the database, because the former needs to calculate and has a waiting time, and the latter has countless sets of answers that meet the 'how to go next'.

Go: The CPU machine is defeated by the GPU with the database...

Poker: CPU machine loses miserably to GPU with database...

Chess: CPU machine loses miserably to GPU with database...

Mathematical Olympiad problem solution; CPU machine failed miserably to GPU with database...

Medical emergency problem: CPU will not, GPU gives the best solution...

Postpartum care of sows, CPU will not, GPU gives the best solution...

In the layer upon layer battle situation, all GPUs won.

the other side.

Nvidia headquarters.

Founder and CEO Huang Jianxin, looking at the teenager on the TV screen, was in a state of confusion.

Xu Fei's idea of ​​'GPU+database' is completely fine, and can even be realized easily.

It's just that when Xu Fei proposed the concept of 'database', no one in the Western Science and Technology Alliance cared about it, so no one set out to build a database.

Now that Xu Fei suddenly took out the corresponding object, the entire Western Science and Technology Alliance fell behind by 'a generation' in an instant.

This generation does not refer to the manufacturing process, nor does it refer to the construction technology, but the 'technical level'.

In particular, the database of Ironhide Company is based on the integration of radar communication and CCC network. The former is scanning all the time, while the latter is inputting all the time, filling data every second of every day.

The only thing left is to let 'players help train the graphics card', to be 'familiar with the path, familiar with the answer', and then complete the 'Question and Answer'.

If the foundry capabilities of the West Factory and the South Factory are included, it is obvious that the future is the era of high-end GPUs, and mid-to-high-end CPUs are very likely to be terminated.

It will even happen as if the 'integrated graphics card' is the same way, and the micro CPU is integrated into the high-end graphics card in the opposite direction.

Huang Jianxin opened Nasdaq blankly.

Intel stock plummeted.

AMD stock plummeted.

Nvidia stock soared.

ATI stock skyrocketed.

The relisted 3Dfx stock skyrocketed.

The Nasdaq index first fell and then rose, and soon soared into the sky.

Logically speaking, the surge in Nvidia stock is a good thing.

But Huang Jianxin was not happy at all.

Because everything is out of control.

It means that the gains generated by the rise in Nvidia's stock have all been harvested by Romney.

……

The closing ceremony of the World Cup is still going on.

But after casting the screen, someone seems to have forgotten to turn off the personal power bank in his hand.

Just when it is ready to further describe Industry 2.0 based on 'X series graphics card + database'.

Lei Meng sent a message: "Xu, we have received the luggage donated by you personally, but four-fifths of the rice, flour, grain and oil that Kirov put in are fake, especially the rice is full of sand."

"Xu, I think of the 'fire dragon burning the barn' and 'Yin soldiers borrow food' that you often mentioned. This should not be your reason. After all, you donated these supplies to our coalition forces, not sold them to us."

"Xu, I hope to get the second batch of luggage as soon as possible, and I can buy it with money."

Xu Fei lowered his head to read the pop-up message, was stunned for a long time, and muttered to himself: "This group of goddamn thieves actually made the factory manager embarrassing and dumped in North America."

Hearing the echo, he looked around the silent scene, saw the super-large XLED screen behind him, and suddenly reacted, "It's over, shame on the whole world."

Live audience:"……"

Global audience: "..."

Eastern Board of Directors: "???"

As early as last year, the board of directors decided to cancel the agricultural tax, and then carried out a large-scale reduction of the staff of the grain station, and finally assigned the grain station, grain station, etc. to the supply and marketing system for "storage".

The "supervision" of the supply and marketing system is no different from that of the Youth League. After three years of rectification, there is almost no corruption.

Under such circumstances, it is impossible for Xu Fei to store the emergency supplies in the old grain station as "four-fifths of the rice, flour, grain and oil are fake, and the rice is full of sand and soil", unless Xu Fei guards and steals it himself.

When the deputy director thought about this, he suddenly understood that Xu Fei deliberately donated "adulterated baggage" and his eyes turned, indicating that Uncle Sun, who was in charge of the emergency management system, would start the investigation overnight and cooperate with the adults to perform.

the other side.

Just as Xu Fei was about to end the screen projection of the power bank, a series of notifications popped up on the screen again.

This time it is the Osawa e-commerce procurement system.

General Electric has remitted an advance payment of US$20 billion and plans to purchase 500 million Cuttlefish Technology X-series graphics cards to replace the original automotive chips.

TEP Group remits an advance payment of US$50 billion and plans to purchase 150 million high-end X-series graphics cards from Squid Technology to replace the original automotive chips.

Fiat Automobiles brings in $30 billion...

Hyundai Group brought in $20 billion...

The old Walker agricultural machinery imports...

Boston Shipyard imports...

Daoke Technology imports...

Jason Electric... (Thor).

Electric cars in Arizona... (Thor).

Lithium industry in Western Europe... (Trust).

General Electric invested 110 billion U.S. dollars and plans to purchase 1350 million X-series mid-to-low-end graphics cards from Squid Technology to replace the original PLC controller and CNC terminal ARM chip.

Xu Fei saw the last item, thought about it, and felt that he hadn't mentioned the second round of industrial innovation, that is, 'Industry 2.0' based on X-series graphics card + database, and Smith of General Electric placed an order in advance.

Fortunately, the whole world is in a state of confusion, and no one has discovered this bug.

Even if it is discovered, Smith can explain: "I have a long-term vision, and I have already seen through Director Xu's plan", so as to improve the ranking of professional managers in the world.

Thinking of this, Xu Fei stood in the center of the world-famous World Cup closing ceremony big stage, and embraced the sky with open arms.

"The world will change because of me!"

The next moment, Nasdaq was completely out of control.

And those who have read the autobiography of Director Xu finally understand what Xu's stock trading method is.

Of course, the Western Science and Technology Alliance certainly does not want to be taken over by dog ​​traffickers.

Nvidia was the first to jump out, denying the design of 'X series graphics card + database', pointing out that there are major drawbacks in it.

For example, no one can guarantee the security of the database.

For example, once someone maliciously alters the information in the database and deliberately misleads users, uncontrollable chaos will occur, especially when the home planet is facing the invasion of microbial legions.

For example, the X-series graphics card loses network support, which is equivalent to a waste card.

Immediately afterwards, Intel jumped out and overthrew the concept of 'X series graphics card + database', belittling the design from all aspects.

Subsequently, AMD, ATI, including Qualcomm, Google, and Texas Instruments also began to express their views.

Soon, a whole bunch of fake news came out.

Toshiba canceled orders for X-series graphics cards.

Samsung canceled orders for X-series graphics cards.

LG Electronics canceled orders for X-series graphics cards.

With more and more fake news, the soaring Nasdaq has finally begun to cool down.

Xu Fei didn't explain this at all, because the world's public opinion is still in the hands of the Western media. He just sent 10 tons of dog food to General Raymond the day after he participated in the closing ceremony of the World Cup.

"Old Lei, the second batch of luggage is about to arrive, remember to receive it."

"Xu, thank you."

"No need to be so polite."

"Xu, are you okay this time?"

"Don't worry, it's absolutely fine, it's all made by Leifei Technology."

"That would be great!"
