This includes a large number of chip patents and electronic components used in various electronic devices.
While Xing Baohua was looking at the documents, Geng Rui said to him, "Open the second hard drive and you'll find some information about hard drive technology."
"Which generation of hard drive technology?" Xing Baohua asked, after all, IBM had conducted research and development on hard drives ranging from a few kilobytes to the current gigabytes.
"It's not clear yet, only a small part. Give us some time and we can sort it out," Geng Rui said.
"Boss, I have a document here that I think is quite important. Would you like to take a look?" A superconducting expert said to Xing Baohua, pointing to some English text on the screen.
Xing Baohua leaned over to take a look, patted the other person on the shoulder to make them move aside, and sat down to read very seriously.
Actually, I've already cursed him out in my heart several times.
The document outlined an upgrade plan for IBM's SP system on the Power1 processor. Xing Baohua didn't know what the SP system was, but after reading the accompanying text, he understood its intended use.
The SP system was used in supercomputing, meaning it was a supercomputer developed by IBM, and this supercomputer was used for US defense.
Furthermore, the SP supercomputer assists radar in calculating multiple different targets, thereby improving the capabilities of the US air surveillance system.
So what about the performance of the Power1 chip? And since people are preparing to upgrade Power1, will the next generation be called Power2?
Xing Baohua knew nothing about this chip, but it was precisely this lack of knowledge that made him realize how extraordinary it was.
Supercomputing chips! Just how powerful must they be!
Only at the very end do you realize that this system is composed of many nodes, and each node contains one or more Power1 microprocessors with its own memory and disk space.
The US Defense SP supercomputing system consists of 80 nodes, and each node has four IBM first-generation Power processors.
The construction cost for each node is approximately ten million US dollars.
"Geng Rui, you guys search for the word 'Power' for me. I need all the information containing 'Power'," Xing Baohua said.
"OK."
Then, Xing Baohua stood up and lit a cigarette. He tried to calm himself; what he had just seen was a bit frightening.
"Could this third party's attempt to seize the hard drive be aimed at the SP supercomputing system?" I suddenly felt that they might actually be after that thing.
IBM also sold arms in its early days.
Although it was spun off, the US defense business still needs to be done. Based on the current information, it appears that the US defense's air defense system is entirely built by IBM.
"This place is uninhabitable, we need to move." Thinking of this, he quickly took out his phone and called Captain Han.
After the call connected, Xing Baohua, without even exchanging pleasantries, said directly, "Reinforcements are needed. We need to evacuate quickly and return to China."
