The next day, D-Wave announced to the outside world that D-Wave had made a revolutionary breakthrough in the field of quantum computers, and held a press conference three days later to announce the details.
As soon as the news was announced, it quickly attracted the attention of the technology circle, especially the computer field, which received a lot of attention from this field.
D-Wave is a company that researches quantum computers and is a leader in this field, a revolutionary breakthrough, which is very fascinating in itself.
With the attention of the outside world, another major news was soon dug up. This news was widely reported in the technology circle and the media, and the content of the news claimed that future technology appeared in China.
This is different, not only the appearance of future technology, but also the identity of the visitor is resounding all over the world. The name Cheng Ze has been remembered by more than 20 billion people.
As time went by, finally came the third day.
D-Wave's press conference brought together as many as 230 special correspondents, as well as many practitioners in the computer field. Fern Brownell, who attended the conference, was also very excited.
The company's previous press conferences have never received such a high degree of attention. This time, not only all the reporters who should pay are present, but also many additional personnel.
Not only did the number break through 100 for the first time, but it also reached more than 230, including many other colleagues, and nearly 350 people gathered at the scene.
He is very clear that the name Future Technology has a lot to do with being able to get such a high degree of attention.
With D-Wave's Fern Brownell attending the press conference, Cheng Ze's subsequent arrival immediately caused a neat and high-frequency flash on the scene's camera flash door. They did not expect that the first vice president of Future Technology Zhong also attended.
"Looks like there's something big going on today!"
"I'm sure!" A reporter whispered. Previous examples have shown that wherever future technology appears, it's always a time of great industry events. Basically, there are big news that can easily occupy the headlines of the day's news. For the last time, there will be a big shock in the industry.
The computer practitioners who came here have a premonition that this time, there may be big news in the computer field.
The press conference started at 9:30 local time, and Fern Brownell personally announced: "From now on, it is officially announced that mankind has successfully developed the first real quantum computer, and its calculation speed will reach the theoretical level. The peak value is more than 90, and the calculation speed is more than 9 times faster than the sum of all existing computers in the world, including supercomputers."
Brownell looked at the shocked expression below, especially his colleagues in the computer field, and he said excitedly: "It took nearly half a century for human beings to finally break through the quantum computer!"
The next moment, there was a muffled commotion in the audience, and some whispers appeared frequently, especially the practitioners in the computer field, who were all shocked. "Before announcing the rest of the news, please allow us to share that exciting moment with the world!" Brownell said slowly with a smile.As soon as the words fell, a video was released at the press conference, which was a scene that took place in the laboratory.
"My God, 757983 has reached more than 80 of the theoretical calculation peak, and it is still soaring and it is not the end!"
"This is the first real quantum computer!"
"This is a historic moment, and this is a moment worth remembering for the whole world!" The reporters and computer practitioners present were watching the scenes in the video. Everyone in the video was so excited and incoherent that they couldn't suppress it. emotions in the heart.As the video ended, it finally stopped on a progress bar, showing: 96!
With a bang, warm applause began to resound, and almost all the elite groups of human beings came to the press conference. No one knew how important the birth of quantum computers was to the entire human race.
A Western reporter even wanted to shout out: Finally, China has taken the lead in the field of cutting-edge technology.
That's right, it might have been unbelievable for him to have such an idea in the past, but today, when the technology sector is frantically swiped by a Huaxia technology company called "Future Technology" every once in a while, it is not surprising at all.
But he held back, because someone at the press conference told him it wasn't an independent effort.
At this moment, the reporter couldn't help but hate Cheng Ze's existence. If he didn't appear here, it would mean that this was an achievement unique to the West, a great achievement.
But anyway, this is a historic moment for humanity.Today's press conference is a bit different from usual, but in the form of announcing one piece of content to answer one piece of content.
"Hello, Mr. Fern Brownell, I am Creel, a Reuters reporter. I would like to ask: If the quantum computer is successfully commercialized, the powerful functions of the quantum computer will directly destroy the existing information in the short term. security system."
"Current algorithms will be insecure and vulnerable to quantum computers."
"All privacy will be cracked by the simplest brute force method. The birth of quantum computers will bear the brunt of the test in the field of information security. What do you think about this?"
Undoubtedly, in the current world, this problem cannot be ignored at all. In the past, it may take ten or a hundred years for a high-level encrypted message to be cracked on a traditional computer.
But in front of a quantum computer, it may be easily deciphered in one second or less, and it is the simplest and most crude method of deciphering, because its calculation speed is really terrible.
The computing speed of the quantum computer in the video just now exceeds the sum of the computing speeds of all conventional computers and supercomputers in the world at present, and is 9 times higher.
There is no doubt that traditional conventional computers will never be able to come close to peak computing power.
The first thousand and 720 chapters of the madness of Wall Street
This means that when the quantum computer is born, those units and institutions that rely heavily on information security as the cornerstone will be affected, including the national government, the military, banks, e-commerce, and everything else.
Especially the Internet, although it has a fairly well-written system under decades of development, the most important of which is undoubtedly the information security guarantee system, but in the face of quantum computers, the so-called guarantee will be vulnerable.
Obviously, if there is no reliable new algorithm or no security system guarantee, the birth of quantum computer will be a disaster, and the government will definitely supervise it.
Even the application is limited to national security and military information systems, and it is impossible to popularize it for civilian use.
This first problem is so serious, and it is also a fact that has to be faced. Obviously, since it is chosen to be announced today, there must be a solution. Everyone watched quietly, waiting for the official reply.
Right after the question was posed, Cheng Ze took the microphone, pondered for a moment, looked at the Reuters reporter, and responded: "You are right, this kind of worry is real and cannot be ignored. , The parallel computing capability of quantum computers enables all the algorithms of current conventional computers to be quickly cracked by violence within an acceptable time. As far as conventional computers are concerned, there is currently no mathematical algorithm that is absolutely safe, or even relatively none. "
Speaking of this, Cheng Ze said to everyone: "But quantum computing technology itself is the best encryption method. We all know that using quantum technology for communication can make information unreadable during transmission."
"Once it is read, it will destroy the content of the information itself in transmission, which also means that the cracking method cannot be effectively carried out, so this problem is not unsolvable, on the contrary, this problem is not a problem."
Cheng Ze jokingly said, "A conventional computer is compared to a child, and a quantum computer is compared to an adult. A child will definitely not be able to beat an adult. For the same reason, it is different when both are adults."
"That's right!" Fern Brownell took over the right to speak after Zhang Han finished answering, and said: "Any technology has both positive and negative sides, but it is not unsolvable. The significance of quantum computers to human beings is self-evident. , it will become a powerful driving force for the development of human science."
"It has a strong role in promoting the development of a series of natural sciences such as scientific theory verification, climate prediction, artificial intelligence, marine science, geological research, natural disasters, and space exploration."
"We cannot completely deny the positive and positive effects just because of the possible negative effects."
The announcement and response to the first message ended, and Brownell began to announce the second.
"D-Wave and Future Technology officially jointly announced that they will reach a transaction contract of up to 600 billion US dollars to build the world's first super quantum computer for Future Technology!"
The audience stared in astonishment. The sky-high price of 600 billion is just to build a super quantum computer?What will future technology do?What needs such an exaggerated computer?
Quantum computers are already exaggerated enough, can't you be satisfied?
At the same time, Wall Street responded on the spot. When the first news was announced, the stock price of the company began to soar wildly in a curve.
And just after the announcement of the second news, the stock price of the company showed a geometric speed without warning. Since the opening of the market, the company's market value has risen from the initial US$89 billion to US$150 billion, and at this moment it has soared to US$870 billion. .
D-Wave's company's market value has increased by 97752, and it is not the end.
Facebook has just broken the record held by Apple, and before it is hot on this throne, it was instantly "exploded" by a small company in an unparalleled and brutal way!
And this is not the end, according to analysts' forecasts, today's close, the market value of the company will easily break through the $2500 billion mark.
This is unique and unprecedented in history.
There are three reasons for analysts to give such crazy data: one is the current soaring 97752 increase, and the other is that quantum computers may usher in a crazy reshuffle of the entire industry.
Third, Future Technology's $600 billion order provides the greatest guarantee.
Just the third one, the revenue of 600 billion US dollars, even if there is no new income this year, this transaction alone is enough to support the company's market value to more than 2000 billion US dollars.
Not to mention that this company is based on the current prospects of the entire industry.The madness on Wall Street has not spread quickly, and it will spread to the whole world in a few minutes, but it will be too late in a few minutes.
