Chapter 561 Boycott
[Impossible? Can Ginga-1 surpass Fugaku?]
[…Did China bribe the organizers?]
[Cheating! Cheating!]
…
However, when the data was released, everyone was dumbfounded.
Top 1, China, Galaxy-1, test performance 56361TFlop/s, peak performance 61786TFlop/s;
Top 2, R country, Fugaku-2, test performance 547326TFlop/s, peak performance 589482TFlop/s;
Top 3, Country M, apex, test performance 328733TFlop/s, peak skill 382321TFlop/s;
Top 4, China, Tianhe-3...
…
After the shock, many people were wondering what chip China's Galaxy-1 had replaced and why it suddenly became so popular?
The research and development team of Galaxy-1 was soon announced, and the main developer was Gu Suyi, who was hailed as the "AI Queen" by them!
The Galaxy-1 chip also uses the improved Loongson 3, a new microprocessor chip originally developed by China.
This sudden emergence of a dark horse stunned all the netizens and computer companies who were following the World Supercomputing Conference. Although its test performance was not much higher than that of Country R's Fugaku, it still surpassed it!
You know, Country R has won the supercomputer championship for many consecutive years, and now it was thought that Country R would also be the undisputed champion in this year's World Supercomputing Conference. Who knew that a dark horse like Galaxy-1 would suddenly emerge!
Those Chinese keyboard warriors and trolls immediately stopped talking, and many even deleted some of their original comments.
They were indeed not optimistic about China's strength in supercomputers. After all, there had not been such good results in so many years. But who knew that this time the Galaxy-1 was actually developed by Gu Suyi.
[After Yijie was named an academician, there was such a big fuss. Shouldn't those trolls who were saying 'Yijie doesn't deserve to be an academician' just shut up?]
[Trolls are called trolls because they just say whatever they want. Someone will definitely say that Yijie bribed the referee.]
[Bribing off the Little Sun Country? Hahahaha, the best joke of the year has been born!]
…
Netizens were very excited and forwarded the good news one after another, and major media outlets also rushed to report on it.
It seems that no one wants to fall behind and take advantage of this wave of popularity. After all, it is a good time to promote our country's prestige.
Various related topics also became hot searches, and Lu Cheng, who is still working hard in the entertainment industry but has become a movie emperor, even published a long article.
The title of the long article is: This is the idol I am a fan of!!!
The long article eloquently described how he became a fan of the high school girl who shined in the CMO competition. He recounted every contribution made by Su Yi, and even openly stated that he was also the vice president of the Yijie Fan Club. There was no sense of maturity in his words that came from a middle-aged man in his thirties.
Just like a little fan with starry eyes.
I can’t tell you how proud I am!
Because the Global Supercomputing Conference would take many days to hold, and Su Yi did not attend the conference considering that she was already nine months pregnant, this also made many well-known foreign media regretful.
However, when they heard that Dr. Gu's only disciple was present in person, they were filled with curiosity for a moment. Anyone who could be accepted as a student by such a legendary lady must be an extremely talented person!
Moreover, China also knew that Galaxy-1 would attract worldwide attention, so it sent relevant negotiation professionals to go there early. As expected, many domestic and foreign companies expressed great interest in Galaxy-1.
They also hope to be able to collaborate on related data calculations.
Therefore, China has received unprecedented attention this time, and its staff are extremely busy.
Although they are busy, they enjoy it!
Just as the World Supercomputing Conference was drawing to a close, someone suddenly revealed that China's Galaxy-1 was powered by programmable chips purchased from Intel, and was not entirely domestically produced.
As soon as the news came out, many competing countries and rival companies made a big fuss about it.
Among them, netizens from Country R were the loudest in their outcry.
[So it's still 'imported goods' disguised as domestic products. China is really shameful for not even having its own products.]
[What AI Queen is? It's just a name.]
[Our R country is still the best!]
[Boycott AI products!]
…
Overnight, a wave of boycotting AI products inexplicably swept across Country R.
This boycott trend has inexplicably spread to other countries, and even in China, there have been many posts containing "shameful" remarks.
Unfortunately, they forgot that people in other countries may not know Gu Suyi's character, but these trolls in China never learn their lesson. Who is the AI Queen? With my own will, who else can be her?
Those who boycotted AI products were immediately dug out of their IDs and their main personal information was hidden, replaced only with the surname + "someone". The company's official documents were directly published on the official website of Xingchen Technology, indicating that the boycott wishes of these netizens were met.
From now on, Star Technology's products will not be sold to them, and even their accounts in Oasis have been found, and their account numbers have been transferred to their personally bound bank accounts at the same value.
Then, those keyboard warriors who worshipped foreign things suddenly found that they could not log into their accounts on the holographic game!
