"A Rubik's Cube Algorithm Expert: It is impossible for a home computer to crack a third-order Rubik's Cube!"

"Software recharge and unlock, a new type of fraud!"

"The scammer has deceived the Chinese media!"

Related reports appeared in the American media soon.

Most Americans take it as a joke, and don't think it is such a major news. There are always some negative news about countries across the ocean on the news. They have long been used to it.

In American public opinion, the news was just a small wave, and it was quickly forgotten.

China is different.

Many people in China follow overseas news.

This is especially true for the media.

"Tongzhi News Network" is one such media. They like to send overseas news to China. All they have to do is to find useful news and then translate it into Chinese.

These news will soon be translated into domestic reports.

Fang Datong is the editor-in-chief of "Tongzhi News Net". Apart from managing the content released, he spends most of his time browsing overseas news.

When he was browsing this day, he was immediately attracted by a message.

"The scammer has deceived the Chinese media!"

"Scammer?"

"Chinese media?"

Fang Datong opened the news and read it again, combined with the domestic media reports, immediately became energetic.

He does not fully believe in overseas reports.

Some overseas reports are purely deliberately discrediting and do not have any reference at all, but this report is very true and quoted a professional professor.

"It is impossible for a home computer to crack a third-order Rubik's Cube!"

"I have studied Rubik's Cube for fifteen years and thought about various algorithms, but I still can't reduce the amount of calculation to an acceptable level..."

A mathematics professor at a top American university who has been studying a problem that cannot be solved for 15 years can be solved by a Chinese high school student?

This is like a joke!

Fang Datong immediately downloaded the Rubik's Cube calculator. After installation, he followed the prompts and opened a web page.

Can't open!

He couldn't open it even after several attempts, and he became even more convinced of the news content.

quickly.

"Tongzhi News Network" released a piece of news, and it was also hung on the cover of the top column of the homepage, with the title "The Cost of Ignorance: High School Students Who Deceived the World, Will eventually be punished by law!"".

This title makes it easy to think of a story about a high school student who did not understand the law who made up a lie to deceive the world and was eventually punished by law.

As soon as the news was posted, it attracted a lot of clicks.

"Overnight, a tool software called'Cube Calculator' swept the Internet. As long as someone who knows it, they know what it means."

"A new simplified algorithm will appear on behalf of you!"

"On behalf of cracking the number of God!"

"However, many people have never thought that it is possible for a high school student to solve the world's problems?"

"Morey Davidson, a mathematics professor at Kent State University in the United States, has been working on the Rubik's Cube algorithm for fifteen years, and he is known as the'Cube Algorithm Expert'..."

The network is like this.

When different media reports appeared, they always attracted some people who agreed. "Tongzhi News Net" also had a certain influence, and their reports were quickly reprinted by other media.

Suddenly.

The second voice appeared on the Internet--

"I said it's impossible! I have also studied the Rubik's Cube algorithm. Just thinking about it makes me dizzy. A high school student? Haha."

"Cube calculator? It's a liar software!"

"Even some media have been deceived. When they send out reports, don't they try it out once?"

"It costs money to try it out!"

"The webpage for the password can no longer be opened. It must have been locked, blocked, or hacked by the Internet police."

...

Zhao Yi noticed the situation of public opinion that day.

Ok.

It's just that some media released news, citing overseas reports that he is a'liar', but similar situations on the Internet are normal, and any news will have different voices.

He didn't care.

Really is real.

In some forums, some people helped to clarify that they were all people who successfully completed the recharge and successfully unlocked the trial Rubik's Cube calculator.

and so……

In fact, the charge is still to blame.

If the Rubik's Cube calculator becomes free to use, there will naturally be no "fraud" and the negative public opinion will definitely be much less.

Zhao Yi didn't care either.

He has no idea of ​​making free public.

This is not selfish.

Some large companies, laboratories, and scientific research institutions have invested a lot of money, manpower, and material resources to research the technologies and products. No one can expect them to disclose them for free, right?

Zhao Yi does not expect to make a lot of money, but the income is an affirmation of hard work.

He is having a headache for top-up sites.

The website’s service organization provides servers that can provide traffic access to about a thousand people for the rented lower-level pages. If you want to rent more advanced servers, the annual cost will be tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands.

That's not worth it!

The Rubik's Cube calculator is just a tool software, and you won't get any more income after getting the password to unlock it.

This is a one-time sale.

For example, if you rent a server for 100,000 people to browse, even if you can make money back in one go, you won't have much income in the future.

"Boom, boom!"

News from the Penguin.

As soon as Zhao Yi looked at his portrait, he knew it was Zhang Zhen.

Zhang Zhen’s message was a bit unexpected, "Your Rubik's Cube calculator, do you have any ideas for cooperation?"

"You want to buy an algorithm?"

"No."

Zhang Zhen said, "The buying algorithm is unnecessary, the cost is too high, and it is difficult to own it exclusively. Maybe you will make it public in the future?"

"Correct."

Zhao Yi still admitted.

This is a fact.

There are new algorithms in the computer field, which can only be kept secret for a period of time at most, and cannot be occupied forever. As long as the results are produced according to the algorithm, and it is cracked by people with clues, it is only a matter of time.

Zhang Zhen said, "I think so. Our company can help you create a new payment page, the server is also provided for free, and the account for the payment is your own."

"so good?"

"Haha, of course, if you believe me, you can send the password algorithm package, encrypted, and your account information, and then wait for me to send you the link."

Zhang Zhen said a lot in one breath.

Zhao Yi thought carefully and understood what Zhang Zhen meant.

This is rubbing ads!

The Rubik’s Cube calculator is so popular now that there are a lot of news on the Internet. He definitely wants to put the link on his company’s website. When the user clicks in, he will be able to see their company’s advertisement, which may make people think , What is the relationship between Rubik's Cube and their company?

even……

If you add a few advertising products to the web interface, you can make a lot of money by the way?

Zhao Yi shook his head.

He still encrypted the cryptographic algorithm package and sent it over.

Half an hour later, Zhang Zhen gave a link to the webpage and sent a message by the way, "Shy, add an ad by the way!"

Zhao Yi was relieved.

He modified the recharge link prompted by the software, and then sent Zhang Zhen an installation package called'Cube Calculator Version 1.0'.

quickly.

A new version of Rubik's Cube appeared on the Internet.

...

Zhang Zhen just said a few words to Zhao Yi, like a private chat and private help.

In fact, this is cooperation.

Capital Zhouyu Interactive Technology Co., Ltd. attaches great importance to cooperation, probably for the purpose of propaganda. They immediately issued an announcement to the outside world, “Our company and the maker of Rubik’s Cube Calculator Zhao Yi have cooperated. The unlocking and payment part of Rubik’s Cube calculator, It will be operated by our company’s website."

The content of the announcement is simple.

The two parties did not sign a formal cooperation agreement, and the capital, Zhouyu, just wanted the outside world to remember their company's name while downloading the Rubik's Cube calculator.

Many people know about the upgrade of the Rubik's Cube calculator and the change of the recharge page.

Many people go to download and recharge, want to try the effect of Rubik's Cube calculator, and also want to verify the online statement.

Really is real.

When many people went to verify, the public opinion on the Internet immediately changed, and the doubts almost disappeared.

Some influential organizations have also stepped up to express their attitudes.

The first one to stand up is the Rubik's Cube Association, and Rubik's Cube Calculator is directly related to the Rubik's Cube Association.

The president of the Rubik's Cube Association stated, "If the effect of the Rubik's Cube is determined, we will use the Rubik's Cube Calculator to determine the shuffled Rubik's cube in the same minimum steps in future competitions."

"This will make the game more fair!"

Next is the "Big Bang" program group. Zhou Fangsheng, the head of the column, said in an interview, ""Big Bang" will also use the Rubik's Cube calculator in future 3rd-order Rubik's Cube competitions to ensure fair competition."

Simultaneously.

There are also some experts and professors who have come forward to explain the complexity of the third-order Rubik's Cube algorithm, indicating that the Rubik's Cube calculator contains superb algorithms and is very helpful in cracking the number of God.

This is fried cold rice.

Many reports have explained the meaning of the Rubik’s Cube calculator. What many people want to know is whether the calculation result of the Rubik’s Cube calculator is perfect, that is, whether the calculation result is the smallest step and whether it can calculate all states. Rubik's Cube".

The next morning, a major news appeared.

Professor Liu Hemin of the National Academy of Sciences announced that he and his team have completed simulations of 100 million random third-order Rubik's cube states on a supercomputer, and obtained all the results using the Rubik's Cube calculator.

Although only a few thousand results have been verified, all verified are correct.

In addition, they simulated a special third-order Rubik's Cube chaotic state, which is called "superflip" abroad. The position of each magic block in the Superflip state is correct, except that each edge block is flipped and reversed.

Previously, the Superflip state was proved impossible to be restored by less than 20 methods, so the number of gods must be greater than or equal to 20.

Now using the Rubik's Cube calculator, the computer cracked the Superflip state, and got the most simplified 20 steps. The researcher can restore it manually without computer calculation at all, which directly proves the correctness of the result.

in other words……

After the advent of the Rubik's Cube calculator, the number of Gods in the third-order Rubik's Cube was almost equivalent to being cracked.

This number is 20.
