Chapter 384 The Boss Leaning Back Slightly
DARPA (DARPA).

Bush, Smith, Bush, the head of the NSA, the heads of the three major matrix projects in North America, six senior consultants from BlackRock and Vanguard, and more than a dozen scientific researchers from North American high-tech companies sat together.

The extra-large conference screen on the far wall was playing three series of AI compiled by Federal Capital’s numerous intelligence systems during the May Day Golden Week.

The first is what is known as Agriculture 3.0.

The left screen shows the characteristics of the ‘Sanwu Winter Wheat’ seeds, such as the planting amount per acre, suitable soil type, suitable climate temperature, and preferred soil moisture…

The screen on the right shows a 10m x 10m piece of land, which is then cut into 10 small squares using an ‘electronic fence’ and implanted with a comprehensive sensing chip (fake, it’s actually an experimental field at the base), which then produces a series of data, such as soil pH, soil moisture, air quality, air humidity…

Then the screen turns two into one, and three to five winter wheat seeds are sown in the 10m x 10m land at the optimal planting amount. During the subsequent growth process, irrigation, sprinkler irrigation, fertilization and other methods are used to maintain the entire environment until the wheat matures.

After the harvest, the system will give the planting cost, including the cost sharing of the ‘large agricultural model-wheat model-three-five winter wheat special model’, sowing costs, irrigation costs, fertilization costs, harvesting costs, etc., and then calculate the overall power consumption.

Although the cost of the wheat model increased the overall planting cost by 520%, the power consumption, that is, the use of water, electricity and fertilizer, decreased by 75%.

Then, referring to Moore’s Law, the cost of the ‘agricultural big model’ will definitely become lower and lower over time, and even be negligible after ten years.

As a result, the power consumption of the farming industry will be reduced and the cost of crops will also be reduced.

At the same time, the saved water, electricity and other resources can be used in other fields.

This is a very scary thing.

Just like Sanyuan Agriculture does not pay attention to the ‘chip power consumption’.

Do you think reducing chip power consumption is just to make computers or mobile phones more power-efficient?
Actually not.

Suppose City A has 500 million residents and everyone has a laptop.

A laptop consumes 1 kilowatt-hour of electricity every day. If we don’t take into account the electricity consumption of factories, businesses and residents, the city consumes 500 million kilowatt-hours of electricity every day.

A medium-sized power plant with an installed capacity of 300MW can only provide 720 million kWh of electricity when operating at full capacity for a day.

If the power consumption increases by 50%, the laptop will consume 500 million x 150%, or about 750 million kWh of electricity per day. The city will face a power supply crisis, electricity prices will rise, and the living standards of urban residents will decline.

If the power consumption drops by 50%, the laptop consumes 500 million x 50%, or about 250 million kWh of electricity per day. The city’s excess power generation can promote industrial development, commercial development, etc., making the lives of urban residents more prosperous.

In addition, power consumption affects the heat generated by the equipment. If the equipment wants to dissipate heat, an additional cooling device must be installed. On a small scale, the graphics card needs a fan, and on a large scale, the computer room needs air conditioning, which will generate greater power consumption.

The greater the power consumption, the faster the resources are consumed. Once the resources are exhausted, the city will perish.

The same is true if we apply it to the country.

So power consumption is very, very important.

Therefore, although Federal Capital is dismissive and contemptuous of Sanyuan Agriculture’s electronic tube technology, it has a very high opinion of Agriculture 3.0. Otherwise, you would not invest 1000 billion US dollars and I would not invest 2000 billion US dollars. I would rather give money to Yu Sanyuan than invest in this project.

then.

The conference screen replaces the mechanism of Agriculture 3.0 with industries, commerce, society and other fields.

In the industrial field, resources are coordinated in more detail, production tasks are divided more finely, and production costs are further reduced.

In the business world, human resources are coordinated in more detail and the labor process is more closely monitored. Not to mention using the restroom to slack off, even if you leave the ‘electronic fence’ for 0.01 seconds, the system will give feedback to let your boss know.

In the field of transportation, traffic control is more reasonable, passenger identities are more detailed, and any possible dangerous factors will be presented to AI and early warnings will be issued.

In the social field, urban residents’ health, urban residents’ income, urban residents’ unemployment rate, resettlement of outsiders, safety factor of floating population…

In the medical field…

In the field of education…

In short, with the help of the Agriculture 3.0 mechanism, or in other words, with the help of AI, the entire city has become a high-precision machine.

Although it costs more money, the power consumption has been reduced to the extreme, and the overall development coefficient has been raised to an enviable level.

“So North America must follow suit and do AI.”

“Unless we can destroy everything Sanyuan Agriculture owns.”

“Otherwise, 20 years later…when Mr. Lao Bu sees Yu Sanyuan, he might have to stand up and toast. Of course, whether you can live to that time is still unknown.”

The head of DARPA (North American Advanced Research Projects Agency) said half-jokingly.

When Lao Bu heard this, his face darkened.

Old Smith laughed out loud.

However, when he thought about developing AI, old Smith felt painful again.

Because the graphics card matrix, which has recently increased investment, is just equivalent to the “storage” of big data, also called database.

If you want to apply data, you also need to combine algorithms, develop “big models”, train big models, and experiment with big models.

In the North American social system, people do not have much trust in the North American government.

In particular, Yu Sanyuan exposed that there are backdoors in the hardware produced by technology companies and the software developed by technology companies.

It was even revealed that the head of the NSA was eavesdropping on the world with his butt sticking out like a hamburger…
Now, not only the North American people, but even European consumers are highly wary of North American electronic products.

Otherwise, the three-series electronic products would not be selling so well in Europe.

Of course, North America also listed the mechanisms of Agriculture 3.0 through the news media and informed consumers that Sanyuan Agriculture is secretly collecting user personal information.

Therefore, the “North American sanctions on Sanyuan Agriculture” incident occurred.

However, the three series of electronic products are mainly service-oriented and sell based on the “urgent needs” of customers.

For example, the three-series identity card.

If you want to travel to Shiliying, you must use it to enter the factory area, bring goods with you during your travels, invest in the re-export trade zone, and make big money in Europe using the three series products.

At this time, do you still care about “collecting user personal information”?

Another example is ‘mobile internet card’.

North America imposed sanctions on Sanyuan Agriculture and strictly prohibited electronic companies from integrating this device, resulting in hot sales of mobile Internet cards.

As a business person, if you want to access the Internet in a vehicle with a speed exceeding 45km/h, you must use a mobile Internet card.

Therefore, users of three-series electronic products do not care about any personal information.

Moreover, the ‘cloud data encryption service’ launched by Xintai Data Center has been in operation for more than two years, with 100% security guarantee, which makes the business community trust Sanyuan Agriculture even more.

Including North America’s battle plan for attacking Iraq, it is also stored in the Sanyuan cloud.

Of course, this move was intended to disgust Yu Sanyuan.

If the battle plan is leaked, it means that the Xintai Data Center is not good.

If Yu Sanyuan was up to something, it would mean that there was an internal leak in the Xintai Data Center and that he was disloyal to his customers.

DARPA (North American Advanced Research Projects Agency) saw the silence at the scene and continued:
“Business-related big data, big models and AI can be developed and tested in Japan and South Korea to collect data there, while big models and AI in the military field can be based on our existing combat systems and use soldiers as data collection objects.”

Xiaobu nodded, “Very good suggestion.”

Lao Bu denied it, “Although we have a goal, there are many types of large models, and we need a lot of money. This requires the participation of capital from all walks of life. However, those stingy capitalists would rather spend their money on women than invest in our project. If we force them to pay, that is, increase taxes and fees, etc., they will think that we are making money again.”

Old Smith smiled and said, “This concerns our future. If they disagree, let them die.”

Old Bush didn’t expect that his old rival would be so decisive. He turned his head in surprise and wanted to ask, are you the military-industrial complex, or am I the military-industrial complex?

With David joining him, Old Smith had money and weapons, and he wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of a group of capitalists and strengthen the control of North American Jewish capital over North American capital, but he couldn’t say it out loud, “I don’t want to stand up and toast Yu Sanyuan in 20 years.” These words touched Old Bush’s heart, “Let’s do it.”

then.

On the last day of the May Day Golden Week, accidents occurred one after another among senior North American capital executives independent of capital giants such as Morgan, BlackRock, Vanguard, State Street Global Advisors, Fidelity Investments, and Blackstone Group.

Some took DuPont’s homemade plane.

Some died suddenly in car accidents.

Some drowned in the bathtub.

Some were shot several times in the back…
At the same time, executives of many Japanese technology, industrial and medical companies, or investors behind them, have gone to North America to attend various parties/conferences.

Federal Capital itself also used the “development of the stone industry” as a smokescreen to establish “North American Stone Alliance Technology”.

It mainly engages in industrial Internet and e-commerce, and aims to promote the digital transformation of the traditional stone industry in the global stone field.

Category: Never Listed.

On the same day, the stone B2B website was launched (online sales).

Within three days, the business spread all over the world, and plans were made to set up offices in many countries.

A week later, the research and development, training, and testing of the “algorithm big model” were launched in this company, as well as in many companies in Japan and South Korea.

5 month 12 number.

International Conference Center, northern suburbs of Fei City.

Office of the Chairman of Sanyuan Agriculture.

After giving up on introducing the “barrage anti-missile system”, the leaders of the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering set their sights on the third-series electron tubes.

Although Yu Yang repeatedly stated that this technology could not be released for the time being, the leaders were very concerned about it.

I have been visiting almost every day in the past week.

And each time it was a formal meeting.

Including today.

After the two sides met, they sat down.

Behind the leaders sat many recorders, accompanying secretaries, and reporters from Oriental Radio.

In order to show his importance, Yu Yang once again recruited Li Changnian, the clerk, reporter of the art troupe, factory secretary, and head of the think tank.

After discussing with the think tank, Yu Yang had some guesses about the persistence of the leaders of the two houses.

The electron tube is the basic component of electronic equipment and is also the most important logic unit.

However, many of the technologies on the mother planet have not undergone large-scale iterations in the nearly 100 years since their birth.

Even though the technical principles have changed greatly, the “purpose has not changed”.

Just like ‘wireless signals’, whether it is radar, radio, communication network, Bluetooth, wifi, or ultraviolet rays, infrared rays, X-rays, visible light, they all belong to electromagnetic waves.

If you have a device that emits electromagnetic waves, you can interfere with them as long as you aim at the frequency band.

Therefore, the high-energy electromagnetic waves of EMP can cut off all wireless signals.

Unless quantum communication comes along.

It’s like nuclear energy.

Whether it is the first generation of nuclear power technology, the second generation, the third generation, or the nuclear power of aircraft carriers, or nuclear fusion that humans have not yet mastered, they are actually all about boiling water and then using the steam principle of the boiler to generate energy.

If you could control the radiation level of a nuclear reactor, keep it stable, and keep the boiler burning without wasting energy, you would definitely be the first in the field of thermonuclear science.

Unless antimatter and vacuum zero-point energy appear.

There are not so many “unless”s in the real world. At present, human beings still have to use the original technological products, and then constantly optimize and replace them to do the same thing.

For example, vacuum tubes.

In the military industry, eighty or ninety years ago, people used the “thermal electron emission” of vacuum tubes as signal amplifiers, and used the electric field modulation of vacuum tubes to reduce noise, and then assembled them into a “signal transceiver-radio station.”

Nowadays, although humans have replaced vacuum tubes with transistors and integrated circuits, they still need to “send and receive signals”, so radio frequency chips were developed.

Then it is applied to radar, wireless broadcasting, wireless TV stations, satellite and ground receiving stations, mobile phones, laptops…
The reason for replacing vacuum tubes is simply that vacuum tubes are clumsy and bulky.

If new materials are used to improve electron tubes, making them smaller or even nanoscale, they can naturally replace radio frequency chips.

Therefore, the third series of electron tubes can be used not only to develop national heavy equipment – vacuum electron beam cutting machines, medical X-ray therapy machines, new nuclear magnetic resonance imaging devices, and ring-rod traveling wave tube radars, but can also be used as radio frequency chips.

The performance of RF chips is related to the stability, fidelity, anti-interference and transmission accuracy of wireless signals.

The quality of radio frequency chips is related to a country’s communication security and military combat effectiveness.

However, at least 99% of the RF chips used in the East currently need to be imported, including those for military use.

Because Dongfang is currently unable to produce RF chips.

Of course, the principle of incandescent lamp is similar to that of vacuum tube. If we can make incandescent lamp, we can definitely make vacuum tube.

This does not mean that the East cannot even produce incandescent lamps or vacuum tubes.

Rather, it means that the East cannot produce RF chips that keep up with the times.

This involves the issue of power consumption.

It is also linked to issues such as electricity, coal, nuclear energy, electricity bills, and people’s livelihood.

It is quite complicated (you can review the first half of the chapter and will not repeat whether power consumption is important or not).

Based on this, let’s look at another question.

Oriental communication operators are currently divided into three major companies: China Telecom, China Netcom and China Mobile.

Among them, China Telecom and China Netcom cannot develop “mobile phone business” without mobile licenses.

Therefore, the PHS was introduced from Japan as a supplement to fixed-line telephones.

The fundamental reason for the inability to develop mobile phone business is “radio frequency chips” and related wireless communication technologies.

After all, this concerns the security of our own communications.

Later, China Telecom obtained the CDMA operating rights from Qualcomm, China Mobile developed TD-SCDMA based on CDMA, and China Unicom, which was formed by the merger of Netcom, developed WCDMA. The three of them replaced Xiaolingtong.

Therefore, for a long period of time in the future, the mobile businesses of China Mobile and China Unicom will be fully developed, while China Telecom will develop slowly.

Therefore, the leaders of the two academies are actually doing this for the three major telecom operators.

Yu Yang didn’t intend to delay on this issue any longer and leaned back slightly.

“Leader, we can give you the RF chip, but we can’t talk about the technology. And we have to calculate the cost of introducing the chip carefully.”

“Of course, they can also use Qualcomm’s technology, but by then, Sanyuan Agriculture will definitely regard them as competitors, rather than coexisting peacefully like now.”
