Global monopoly of technology

Intel has not felt any crisis for this "resurgent" challenger, but Intel is not indifferent to it. People are brazenly about to invade your territory, peeping into the hinterland of Intel's chip kingdom, of course, can't bear it. .

So, on the second day after the news was announced, in response to this matter, an Intel vice president of engineering unceremoniously posted on the international version of MicroBlog:

"A turkey you bought cannot become a phoenix."

This sentence did not specify the name or surname, but an Intel executive made such a sentence at this time.

Obviously, this is not difficult to interpret.

The technology media also quickly reported the matter. As for the Blue Coast, there was no response to this kind of ridicule of Intel’s red fruit, and Luo Sheng is busy climbing technology. How can I go to Intel’s people on the Internet? .

In the following days, Luo Sheng began to gradually withdraw from the company’s daily operations and management, and quickly completed the merger and reorganization of Sony’s Cell business. In the future, it may be difficult for the high-tech industry of foreign companies to be as smooth as it is now. .

Because the general environment is quietly reversing, Luo Sheng is taking one step and three steps. After the financial crisis, in the next ten years, China has officially entered a decade of full-scale "surpassing Britain and catching up with the United States".

At the same time, Americans' attention is constantly shifting from the Middle East to the Asia-Pacific region. To be precise, the degree of focus on China is better than one year.

It's the so-called gunshot.

The two technology giant groups founded by Luo Sheng can now be said to be postcards of Huaguo Technology Company. They are harvesting profits and expanding globally.

No need to think or have illusions. Once the Americans find that they can't afford to play, they will inevitably play hooligans. The first one will definitely take these two companies. The suppression will definitely happen as expected.

Of course, Luo Sheng would not choose to wait and die. In the days to come, overseas markets will definitely face many problems, but there is an old saying that there is no way out of nowhere.

After the financial crisis, the consumption power of the Greater China market began to explode. This is a supermarket with a population of 1.3 billion. Its explosive power is shocking the world and it is also wonderful.

Right now, at the end of 2008, China’s Internet users officially exceeded 300 million, and the growth rate was soaring at a double-digit scale. In another year or so, new Internet users will add another 100 million. In this country, the Internet is on the fast lane of rapid prosperity.

There is no doubt that Luo Sheng’s next strategic layout will inevitably shift its focus from overseas to the mainland. If the overseas market previously occupied 80% of the center of gravity, then Luo Sheng hopes to achieve a balance between the mainland and overseas markets. Each accounted for about 50%, and the mainland may be heavier.

The fundamental purpose of shifting the strategic focus is to improve one's own anti-strike ability.

I don't expect the worst to happen, but we must prepare for the worst. Assuming that business in overseas markets suffers a severe setback, we can use the huge scale of the mainland market to withstand the scene.

The core issue is the "spare tire plan". It will not only break through the comprehensive technical blockade of foreigners in the future, but also surpass and occupy the commanding heights of technology in core technology. As long as this can be ensured, the ultimate winner will definitely be itself and China.

As soon as the trip to Japan ended, Luo Sheng began to work as a shopkeeper after returning to China. He pulled out and took full charge of climbing technology. The day-to-day operations of the Blue Coast were handed over to Yao Jianhong, and Blue Star Technology was handed over to Zhang Bowen.

Now with the assistance of Xiaona, the artificial intelligence, Luo Sheng can learn the latest situation of the two companies anytime and anywhere without going to the company.

Xiaona regularly reports to him on the two companies every week.

...

Today is an odd-numbered day of the week. Luo Sheng is in Qin Weimu's private mansion, and on even-numbered days it is on Irene's side. This situation has been going on for more than two months, and it seems that the two women have reached a tacit consensus.

Since that time they met in the science and technology complex building, they have basically not seen each other. That time, the two women did not pierce the last layer of paper, but it makes no difference whether they are pierced or not.

Luo Sheng tried to accomplish the feat of "unifying the great cause", but found that this was too difficult, so he temporarily gave up the idea.

The meal should be eaten bite by bite.

The repulsion between them is like two parallel lines that cannot intersect. It is like relativity and quantum mechanics in physics. Those who try to unify the two cornerstones of modern physics will finally be ashamed.

But it's actually good to keep it in this state.

At night, Luo Sheng came out of the bathroom and came to the bedroom: "Baby, give you a new task at work, very important."

Qin Weimu: "Let's talk."

Luo Sheng came to the side of the bed and sat down next to her, stroking the slender and white jade legs sliding back and forth, and said thoughtfully: "Go and set up a venture capital fund. This is a strategic investment fund. It only invests in the Growth Enterprise Market of the emerging technology industry. The early stage is mainly in the semiconductor-related fields. It does not enter the Côte d'Azur or Bluestar Technology. The source of funds for this investment fund is mainly obtained from our family fund."

Going alone is not advisable, efficiency is too slow, and technological blockade from foreign countries may come sooner than expected. To be a strategic investor and support the entire industry chain is the best way out. Focus on the key points yourself, and then Lead a group of younger brothers to fly together, and play the role of "the leader of martial arts" in this arena.

Qin Weimu asked: "How much is the initial capital injection?"

Luo Sheng thought for a while and said: "Let's do about 20 billion first, and I will definitely add more later."

Qin Weimu took this down in his heart, then turned his head and glanced at Luo Sheng: "There is nothing else, I will talk about it tomorrow, my palace is exhausted, let's go to bed."

Luo Sheng was stunned for a while, and then said solemnly: "Yes!"

...

The next day, Qin Weimu set out to establish this strategic venture capital fund. She took care of the family fund. This kind of work was also handy for her.

In the meantime, Luo Sheng left Sioux City with a group of cloud computing team technicians from Bluestar Technology Group. This time he was going to another far door, but instead of going abroad, he went to sea.

He took a technical team and took his huge private luxury yacht to the coast of the East China Sea, about 12 nautical miles from the coast of the Yangtze River Delta.

"Boss, what are you going to do to bring us to this place?" An accompanying engineer couldn't help but ask curiously. Most of the R&D personnel and engineers in the company use this title, and few people call him CEO Luo. of.

Luo Sheng looked at the endless coastline. At this time, some staff were busy, and several sailors and technicians were debugging the submersible device.

"Of course I'm not here for sightseeing. I want to sink the future super data center under the sea."

As soon as this remark came out, the accompanying engineers couldn't help being surprised.

Put the data center under the sea?

Is this brain hole a bit big?

Luo Sheng smiled and said: "To build a very large data center under the sea, you should watch the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean" several times, because engineers will have to be like sailors, always resisting mermaid attacks."

Of course, this is a joke, and everyone can understand the meaning.

It is conceivable that there will be various challenges in deploying a data center under the sea.

A researcher next to Luo Sheng murmured: "...the foundation must be established, broadband must be provided, and the destructive hybrid method of electricity and water is required. Maintaining a data center under the sea is definitely a nightmare for engineers. ."

Luo Sheng nodded and said: "Yes, when the company entered the cloud computing field in a big way, I was thinking about it. The best way for the data center to be not too far away from where the population lives and does not need to occupy land resources. It’s a good choice. There are many difficulties. Don’t think about it. What we do is unprecedented, and the Americans have never done it. We can only explore it ourselves, but it’s worth our time to invest in new solutions. Come."

There is no doubt that to sink a data center under the sea, you must overcome technical difficulties and risks, but there are many reasons or benefits that are worth it.

First, the available "land", a large number of coastal seabeds have not been used, and these land are free, and land on land is limited, and the land in big cities is even more expensive.

Second, tidal energy can use ocean motion to generate carbon-neutral electricity, and this natural resource is also free.

Third, cooling and "hot aisle" are the huge cost of each data center. This is proven by the dozens of large-scale data centers currently being constructed or completed by Bluestar Technology Group. There are air-cooling areas, but this is only suitable for mild climates. If it is in more extreme places, air coolers are needed.Sea water is cold, and if it can be pumped to the right place to take the heat away, it can provide adequate cooling.

Fourth, bandwidth. The backbone of the Internet and each global cloud is located on the sea floor. Those pipelines connected to the sea can reduce the delay caused by data packets.

Fifth, population distribution, the vast majority of the world’s population generally live near the coast, most cities are around the coast, and China has a long coastline. The data center needs to be as close to the population as possible and choose to sink into the coast. The benefits of the seabed are self-evident.

The last point is that it can be redeployed quickly, and the data center is dedicated to computers and storage payloads.When replacing the payload, it is usually cheaper to dismantle and rebuild, because it does not require much expensive land expenses. If the subsea system solution is completed, Bluestar Technology Group will undoubtedly change the calculation and storage faster world.

The group company's layout plan in the field of cloud computing is in the next ten years. The large-scale data center built today is only the beginning. In the future, more than 200 data centers will be built globally.

The high cost of this is extremely exaggerated.

In addition to submarine data centers, there are other solutions that are tailored to local conditions. For example, in the subsequent construction of data centers, Europe can make full use of the free air-conditioning provided by the Arctic Circle instead of requiring expensive electricity bills in exchange for air-conditioning Air-conditioning.

Bluestar's subsequent data center construction is also catching up on the schedule. For example, next year, the 17th data center will be opened in Finland. The 18th data center will still be in Europe. The exact location is a large area near the Arctic Circle. city.

All this is to reduce construction costs, make it easier for these infrastructures to use local renewable natural energy for power supply, and even improve performance.

But the key solution is the submarine data center. The population on the earth is also concentrated in the coastal areas. The necessity of the submarine data center is self-evident.

Once the technical difficulties are overcome, the data center can be deployed in any coastal area around the world. There is almost no need for customization. It is OK to throw it away. Of course, this is just a simple and crude description. In fact, it is necessary to achieve this goal. Quite a lot of innovative technologies provide support, including marine technology, materials, etc.

Luo Sheng is also good enough. Now not only has he escaped from the daily cumbersome operation and management of the two companies to lead technology development, but for the new generation of computing and storage, they are all from the land to the seabed.
