Chapter 391 Collapse of Quantum Cloud Network

"Alarm...it's actually an alarm!"

Normally, it is not abnormal for some alarms to appear occasionally. After all, no matter how stable the system is, it will usually be paralyzed several times a year.

But since the emergence of Xingchen Technology's quantum cloud network, there has never been any failure. This is a very incredible thing for a quantum cloud network that requires extremely high stability.

But at this moment, the alarm sounded suddenly for no reason, which surprised everyone.

Ning Chen knew in his heart that this was definitely not an ordinary situation, but an organized and premeditated matter.

Immediately, Ning Chen immediately found the information provided by Xingchen Technology Quantum Cloud Network and checked the details.

However, what Ning Chen couldn't believe was that the Quantum Cloud Network did not give any detailed hints about this.

"How is it possible...it just shows that the quantum cloud network is down, but no reason can be found? This...what is going on?"

Even the quantum Trojans that suddenly appeared a few years ago are far from being able to achieve such destructiveness.

What's more, even Xiaozhi didn't give any warning this time, which made Ning Chen feel so panicked for the first time.

Faced with this sudden special situation, Ning Chen actually wondered whether some alien civilization had suddenly invaded his quantum cloud network.

However, Ning Chen soon felt that the possibility was too low. After all, alien civilizations are not that easy to appear. The probability of their existence in the universe is close to zero, and it is extremely possible to reach Blue Star. Low things.

What's more, it is not logical for them to suddenly invade their own quantum cloud network without any warning.

In contrast, this incident is more likely to be caused by man.

After thinking about the benefits of this matter to all parties, Ning Chen basically guessed the initiator of this matter.

"We have just rejected the cooperation invitation from the American Aeronautics and Space Administration... From this point of view, the initiator behind this matter should be relatively clear."

Although it was roughly confirmed who had done this, it was just Ning Chen's guess after all, and Ning Chen didn't have any evidence to prove it.

And, more importantly than these, Ning Chen must find a solution to these problems as soon as possible, because many projects of Star Technology require quantum cloud networks, and these quantum cloud networks are not only used by Star Technology itself, but also Covering multiple technical departments of Xia State.

Shortly after the failure occurred, many calls came to Xingchen Technology, asking whether there were any problems with Xingchen Technology’s quantum cloud network and whether there were any solutions.

In response to such questions, Xingchen Technology had to temporarily deal with it on the grounds that it was undergoing maintenance.

At this moment, Ning Chen had adjusted his condition to the best and carefully searched for where the problem was.

Ning Chen not only activated the strongest brain state, but also applied the powerful computing power of the brain's biological computer, but even so, such efforts seemed to be in vain.

"Damn it... I can't find it at all. Where does the problem arise? It's like those quanta are completely dead and can't transmit information at all."

Ning Chen had never encountered this kind of situation before, even when he was doing experiments before, and he couldn't find a clue to solve the problem at all.

In desperation, Ning Chen had to try to solve the problem by seeking help from Xiaozhi.

Thinking of this, Xiaozhi muttered in his mind:

"Ash Ketchum!"

【Here I am, Master】

"Help me detect what is wrong with Xingchen Technology's quantum cloud network. Why are all the quanta that transmit information unusable?"

[Xiao Zhi has received the master's request. If the master's brain computing power can be used, Xiao Zhi is expected to solve the problem faster]

"Well, feel free to take it and use it." Ning Chen readily agreed.

At such a moment, Ning Chen would naturally no longer begrudge his brainpower. As long as Xiaozhi could help him find the problem, Ning Chen would even be willing to pay a greater price.

Immediately, Xiaozhi began to use Ning Chen's brain biocomputer and began to calculate nervously.

Because this time, Ning Chen lent most of his brain power to Xiaozhi, which made Ning Chen's brain quickly become hot. Sweat spread all over Ning Chen's head, and Ning Chen had to flush his brain. Fan the air to speed up the cooling of the brain.

As time passed by, Ning Chen finally waited for Xiaozhi's reply.

[Reporting to the master, Xiaozhi has detected the cause of the failure of the Star Technology Quantum Cloud network...]

Listening to Xiaozhi's explanation, Ning Chen couldn't help but frown tightly.

"Xiao Zhi, you mean...this is an unsolvable problem?"

[Yes, this is a special environment that puts the quantum in a dormant state. In this environment, the quantum will be in a very slow state of motion and cannot transmit normal information. The method of creating this kind of environment is not complicated, but even I can't completely solve this problem now...]

Hearing that Xiaozhi was helpless about this problem, Ning Chen didn't know how to deal with this matter for a while.

Xiaozhi is a product of the system. To a certain extent, Ning Chen believes that this should be a powerful technology from the future.

However, even in the future, such a problem will still not be solved, indicating that this is likely to be a problem with no solution at all.

"Could it be that... quantum computer technology is doomed to be a dead end?"

At this time, Ning Chen couldn't help but begin to doubt whether his original choice to develop a quantum computer was correct.

Now Ning Chen doesn't have any clue to solve this problem. Instead of continuing to waste time on this, it is better to think about how to solve the current problems of Xingchen Technology.

"According to Xiaozhi, even if you give me a few more years, I may not be able to solve this 'quantum sleep' problem. Now, I can only disconnect the quantum cloud network first."

Disconnecting the quantum cloud network means that the role of the quantum computer will be greatly weakened, but this is at least better than the complete paralysis of the entire quantum cloud network.

Thinking of this, Ning Chen did not hesitate and immediately made a decisive decision and issued an order to shut down the quantum cloud network.

Immediately, the entire external business of Xingchen Technology, as well as most of the internal business, could no longer proceed normally.

What gave Ning Chen some comfort was that when these quantum computers were separated from the quantum cloud network, those strange malfunctions disappeared.

This proves that this special "sleep state" does not cause irreversible damage to quantum computers, but only affects the transmission of quantum information.

However, this is still a very serious problem for Xingchen Technology as a whole. After all, Xingchen Technology is not just a laboratory, but a very large technology company.

In desperation, Ning Chen had no choice but to decide to temporarily use the supercomputer that he thought could be eliminated as an alternative.

"Manager Lu, immediately find a way to connect as many supercomputers as possible to our cloud network. At the same time, we will re-edit the program algorithm to adapt to the logical method of the supercomputer, and prioritize our main business to use these algorithms. force."

"Okay, Mr. Ning, I understand."

This incident can be said to be the biggest crisis that Xingchen Technology has encountered since its establishment. However, Lu Minghao remained very calm at this critical moment, without even a hint of panic on his face.

After staying with Ning Chen for such a long time, Lu Minghao has long since grown into a "general" who can take charge of his own role. At this critical moment, it is the time for Lu Minghao to play his role.

Xingchen Technology now has several supercomputers, but they are not used for applications, but are experimental machines. Lu Minghao immediately arranged for people to debug them and prepare for emergencies.

On the other hand, Lu Minghao also contacted several supercomputing centers in Xia to seek their help.

Supercomputing centers including the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Shuimu University, Yanjing University, etc., after learning the news, were very active and connected their supercomputing cloud networks to Xingchen Technology without requiring any conditions. This made Ning Chen, Lu Minghao and others very moved.

There was close cooperation between everyone before. When they encountered difficulties, Xingchen Technology would try its best to provide help, and when Xingchen Technology encountered trouble, others would naturally not stand idly by.

With the support of these computing power, Xingchen Technology's collapsed cloud network has temporarily stabilized.

"Huh... Fortunately, Xingchen Technology has not been listed on the market. Otherwise, it would have been devastated due to such a situation." Ning Chenxin said.

Although listing a company makes it easier to raise funds, it also greatly increases the company's risks, and it is very easy for the company's assets to be affected by various external circumstances.

This model of Xingchen Technology makes all the company's assets completely real. Even if the company is really paralyzed, the company's assets will relatively maintain their value.

However, Ning Chen cannot maintain this status quo forever. After all, supercomputing cannot completely solve the current problems of Xingchen Technology.

The computing power of supercomputer and quantum computer are not in the same dimension at all. In order to restore Star Technology to normal operation, Ning Chen must find a new breakthrough point.

After thinking for a short time, Ning Chen suddenly thought of a new possible way out.

"Perhaps...the only way to solve the current dilemma is to develop biocomputer technology."

Ning Chen's idea is very difficult to realize. Although Ning Chen's brain has been successfully transformed into a biological computer, this is only due to the system's ability, and Ning Chen does not know the principle.

However, with the field of quantum computers completely stagnant, this is Ning Chen's only way out now.

"Since this technology is proven to exist, I will definitely have the opportunity to figure out the logical relationship!"

Thinking of this, Ning Chen secretly decided to give it a try this time.

Ning Chen first found Lu Minghao and told him that he would leave the company temporarily to find a way to solve the problem. He also asked Lu Minghao to try his best to stabilize the morale of the army and contact him again if something particularly important really happened.

Normally, when the company undergoes such important changes, Ning Chen should stay in the company to maintain the company's stability.

However, Ning Chen knew that such behavior was only at the level of morale and would not be of any substantial help in solving the problem.

Moreover, when you stay in the company, you will be disturbed by various things in the company. It is better to find a quiet place to solve these problems completely before thinking about other things.

After spending so many years with Ning Chen, Lu Minghao could roughly guess what Ning Chen was thinking, so he nodded and said:

"Okay, Mr. Ning, please feel free to go back. I will handle it here in the company, and none of us will let the company down."

The employees of Xingchen Technology generally have very strong cohesion. Even if this incident is very sudden, Ning Chen still believes that everyone will not be in an obvious state of panic, at least in the short term.

On the way home, Ning Chen received calls and text messages from many people. Everyone asked Ning Chen about the status of Xingchen Technology's quantum cloud network.

At the beginning, Ning Chen would explain patiently, but later Ning Chen also realized that this was a meaningless thing, so he blocked most of the numbers except Lu Minghao, Xu Zhou, and Song Xiyun. , Yue Jiafeng and several other important numbers, these numbers are listed on the whitelist.

After returning home, Ning Chen took a shower, tried to calm down his anxious mood, and gradually entered a state of research.

For the next three days, Ning Chen was thinking hard about this matter. Although he had some ideas, there was still a very obvious gap between the technology of completely breaking through biological computers.

In the past few days, Ning Chen had hardly eaten or slept well. Even with the blessing of evolution points, Ning Chen's body was still a little unable to hold on.

Ning Chen knew in his heart that Xingchen Technology must have encountered a lot of troubles these days, and Lu Minghao must also be facing a lot of pressure.

Even though Ning Chen tried hard not to think about these issues, he still couldn't help but think about these issues subconsciously, which to a certain extent affected Ning Chen's state.

At this time, Ning Chen received a message from Song Xiyun.

"Ning Chen, where are you now?"

Song Xiyun did not ask Ning Chen any questions about the quantum cloud network, but Ning Chen understood that Song Xiyun must have many questions to ask herself.
