Chapter 12: Scientists Who Revitalize the Nation



Si Qi and Xiu Xiu laughed loudly in their consciousness. In front of Chu Lin, Si Qi's fingers moved quickly on the keyboard, continuing his prank.

Soon, for the next week, news of "Frequent paranormal events in E country" appeared repeatedly on the Internet, causing every resident of E country to suffer from it.

For example, the alarm clock for work always goes off half an hour early, and the bell for class dismissal always forgets to ring; the newly produced instant noodles always have only noodles but no seasoning packets, or only seasoning packets but no noodles;

the coffee marked without sugar is always filled with sugar, and the coffee marked with more sugar is always black coffee; the ketchup and mustard sauce in the supermarket are packaged differently, so many people have tasted the refreshing taste of mustard-flavored pasta.

The whole country of E is in a mess because of these abominations. More and more people are laughing at the jokes of E, and what is wrong with E recently? Is it that it has done too many bad things and is starting to suffer retribution? Or is the technology so bad that it can't even do these things well?

People took to the streets to protest, claiming that it was hackers who did it, but the government could do nothing about it.

The leader of Country E was extremely worried because the confidential intelligence sent by his subordinates had turned into a cartoon for the tenth time, with a little golden dragon happily wagging its tail.

The superiors in China speculated that this might have been done by the research institute where Si Qi worked, after all, the project that Si Qi was currently working on could achieve just such an effect.

However, they felt that Si Qi's cold and self-sustaining appearance did not seem like someone who would do such a thing, so they reminded Chu Lin in a roundabout way, asking him to pay attention to whether someone had secretly misappropriated things from the research institute to play a prank.

After hearing the news, Chu Lin subconsciously felt that it was most likely Si Qi who did it, because only he had the ability to do such a thing, and only he could think of going out to do such a thing...

He tried to test Si Qi: "Today is your birthday, why don't you take a break and still play on the computer?"

Si Qi said seriously: "I'm working."

Chu Lin thought about it and asked: "Do you want my help? I was also very naughty when I was a child and did a lot of pranks."

Si Qi really turned around and asked: "For example?"

Chu Lin was a little dumbfounded: "...it really was you who did it!"

"What's the matter?" Si Qi said confidently, "This is also a formal test work! Do you have any ideas? I am thinking of letting everyone's doorbells ring suddenly, and then I walked outside to find that no one was knocking on the door."

Chu Lin thought about it and suggested, "How about changing the position of the cooling and heating function buttons on their air-conditioning remote controls?"

Si Qi's eyes lit up: "You are really a genius!"

Chu Lin said modestly, "It's just average, and then the plus and minus buttons for adjusting the temperature can also be reversed."

Si Qi nodded repeatedly: "You are so smart, the people of Country E will definitely be very surprised by your gift."

Country E said it was a good idea!

With the strong support of Chu Lin, the foreign reinforcements, the "supernatural events" in Country E are getting bigger and bigger, as if there will never be an end.

The whole world was watching their excitement, and at the same time, they were all wondering what was going on.

It couldn't be that there was really a god punishing Country E, right?

But if it wasn't a god, who else in the world could do such a thing, not only making Country E look ridiculous, but also leaving it alone?

Time passed unknowingly, and it was a month after the carbon-based chip was launched, and the second press conference started on schedule.

Even without an official invitation from China this time, almost all the major foreign media that could be named came at the first opportunity.

People all over the world who were concerned about this matter all sat in front of their TVs, waiting for the so-called "better invention."

Some foreigners who were too eager to help took out a photo of a "big metal box". This was the result of a month of joint efforts by all the researchers and construction workers at Si Qi's institute. It was the crystallization of the wisdom of countless people and was a confidential matter that had not yet been announced.

Except for Si Qi and a few others, no one knew what it was used for.

Si Qi appeared in the camera again. This time, everyone's expectations of him became stronger. The overwhelming pressure swept over him, but Si Qi did not feel anything.

In front of everyone, he was indifferent, straightforward, and announced:

"The theme of today's press conference is 'quantum computer'."

Everyone was confused after hearing this: ? ? ?

What the hell?

Did you confuse supercomputers with quantum computers?

The media at the scene looked at Si Qi in bewilderment. Si Qi continued, "China has already manufactured a quantum computer and has officially put it into use."

However, the scene was still silent, as if the mute button had been pressed.

A netizen asked curiously, "What is a quantum computer?"

Someone quickly answered,

"If China's existing strength is gathered and chips are piled up, perhaps a supercomputer system with a floating-point computing capability of more than 100 trillion times per second can be piled up, which is the so-called supercomputer.

"In front of a supercomputer, a home computer is equivalent to an abacus, and it can't do anything. It's like one is a dagger that has just been sharpened, and the other is a nuclear weapon that can destroy the world.

"And this kind of nuclear weapon is nothing compared to the quantum computer that Si Qi mentioned so casually.

"For example, to decompose a 129-bit number, 1,600 supercomputers need to be networked and work for 8 months.

"And to decompose a 140-bit number, this time will be extended to hundreds of years.

"But using a quantum computer, the result can be obtained directly in a few seconds.

"Its computing power is enough to easily and violently crack the equation that is as huge as the stars. The so-called most secure bank password in the world is no different from non-existence to it.

"This is something so powerful that it can be called terrifying, no, it is more terrifying than terrifying! !

"Imagine two armies facing each other, and the enemy suddenly loses all means of communication, all detection capabilities, and can't even launch missiles from the missile silo.

"The opponent will have no other thoughts except despair at this moment.

"And our Chinese quantum computer can do these things at will - this is a weapon that only God can wield!!"

The audience around the world was silent for a few seconds.

Many people subconsciously thought of the word "impossible".

However, those who reacted quickly suddenly remembered that Country E had been extremely unlucky during this period, and that Country E had been tortured like a wolf and had no power to fight back. They broke out in a cold sweat and

felt a chill on their backs. Before they could think carefully, they were terrified and shocked by this incident.

The reporters at the scene finally reacted, and then they went crazy, shouting one after another: "Do you know what you are saying? The emergence of quantum computers is a huge impact on the whole world! The financial system will collapse in an instant, and there will be no more secrets in the cyber world! Do you know what consequences this will lead to?!" Looking

at the crazy crowd below, Si Qi said calmly: "China is a country with a moral bottom line. It will not use its own technology to actively bully anyone."

The people of E country who have been tortured recently: Excuse me? Do you have the guts to say one more word? Louder? I didn't hear you? ?

Si Qi: "At the same time, we also have a strong sense of social responsibility. Although quantum computers are powerful, before we release them, we have installed supporting defense programs on all domestic network facilities to ensure the information security of every user."

Foreign netizens went crazy: What about us? We also need this defense program? ! ! Look here! !

Many people rushed to the bank the moment they heard the news. They had to withdraw all the money in their accounts quickly, otherwise they might be hacked by China's quantum computers in the next second! !

"So people don't have to worry about their bank passwords being cracked, nor do they have to worry about their privacy being exposed on the Internet. They can surf the Internet with confidence as before."

All the losers who caused the entire financial world to collapse because of Si Qi's words: ... ... I don't trust you! !

Chinese entrepreneurs carefully jumped: This roller coaster is too fucking exciting.

After Si Qi roughly introduced the functions of quantum computers, he took a sip of water and said slowly: "Now let's have the question-and-answer session."

The reporters below raised their hands like crazy. Si Qi pointed to a domestic media. The girl with black hair and brown eyes stood up excitedly and said to Si Qi: "How did you come up with the idea of ​​developing a quantum computer? Did you encounter many difficulties in the process? How did you overcome them?"

Si Qi said: "Our country started late in the field of scientific research and there are still many shortcomings. However, quantum computers can replace a large number of talents and quickly solve huge data analysis problems in physics, chemistry and other fields. With it, the gap will no longer be a gap. This is the main reason why we developed quantum computers."

Foreign netizens complained in their hearts: This is of course not a gap, why don't you just stand on the finish line! When others are running hard on the track, only you are rushing on a plane!

A group of hardworking and united guys, equipped with such an indestructible weapon, can quickly surpass even if there are 10,000 competitors in front of them! !

"As for the difficulties..."

Si Qi thought about it and said honestly: "I have never encountered any difficulties. It's quite easy."

The Chinese people burst into laughter when they heard this. The

foreign researchers' faces turned blue and purple.

It's so annoying!

It's annoying, and they can't say a word to refute it!

After that, Si Qi seemed to think it was not exciting enough, and continued: "The role of quantum computers is very huge. It can not only serve research fields such as mathematics and physics, but also serve practical application fields such as business and finance. Other similar to weather monitoring, earthquake warning, medical research, can provide effective help..."

All the audience complained in their hearts: Why don’t you just say that quantum computers are like carbon-based chips, and with it, you can directly change the world, we understand!

The media below, who were ready to move, raised their hands desperately, and their anxious emotions finally moved Si Qi above.

Si Qi pointed to a reporter, and the reporter jumped up and asked Si Qi: "Are you going to share that defense program with people all over the world?!"

This sentence immediately touched everyone's nerves.

Without this defense program, all regions of the world, except China, will not dare to use computer equipment.

Their scientific research organizations will not dare to store anything on computers because they are afraid of the existence of quantum computers. They dare not use computers to calculate, because they have no idea whether the results are real or what China wants them to see. The only reliable thing is the most primitive abacus.

Moreover, all military threats are meaningless to China. After all, no matter how many weapons are made, they can't move. What's the use? Maybe after pressing the launch button, the missile will be controlled to hit its head.

Under everyone's tense gaze, Si Qi nodded and said without hesitation: "Of course, we are happy to share this set of defense measures, and everyone is welcome to install the program."

The world economy is interdependent, interconnected, and mutually reinforcing.

China only needs to maintain its leading position. There is no need to force the whole world to the opposite side of itself, just like there is no need to hide carbon-based chips and refuse to sell them.

"Then..." After the reporter breathed a sigh of relief, he asked nervously: "Will you share quantum computer technology with the world?"

Si Qi glanced at the man and nodded: "Everyone can use our computer."

But it is absolutely impossible to own this technology.

If you want to use it, you have to pay money and resources to rent it.

The foreigners sitting in front of the TV wailed in frustration. They grabbed their hair, angry and anxious, but they could do nothing about Si Qi and the others.

They knew clearly that after this incident, no one would dare to cause trouble for China again.

Because they knew in their hearts that even if China's current technological foundation is not yet the world's leading, even if China's material conditions are not yet strong enough to be unmatched, they can easily deal with anyone, and will not lag behind anyone in the future!

Ridicule, questioning, provocation, abuse...

everything has become a thing of the past with the emergence of quantum computers.
