Chapter 174: Tianke Academy and Supercomputers

Su Xin nodded slightly.

He expressed his approval of this proposal.

Seeing this, Liu Qingli smiled and continued, "Setting standards and dividing ranks is to give all technical personnel more motivation."

"And as for Tianke Academy, since it is named an academy, the most important function of a name is naturally education."

"The boss's previous teaching method was to go to various subsidiaries at irregular intervals, gather top technical personnel for a class, and answer everyone's questions."

"But this method is somewhat inefficient."

"The boss has too little time, and the various top technicians also have all kinds of work; they cannot necessarily all gather together when the boss is teaching."

"Everyone's technical level is also inconsistent; if the course is too difficult, some people find it hard to understand, and if the course is too simple, it is a bit of a waste of time."

"And with the department of Tianke Academy, it is like having a school. Boss, you can record video lectures for all members of Tianke Academy to watch. Those who happen not to be present, as well as new company employees, can all learn the knowledge imparted by the boss at Tianke Academy at any time."

"Moreover, it can be systematic, moving from shallow to deep, to learn different courses separately."

"Implementing it into specific measures, we can arrange classes in Tianke Academy every day, coordinated by dedicated personnel, to impart knowledge by playing lecture videos. This can avoid the leakage of core knowledge, and there is no need for the boss to show up in person."

"In addition, within Tianke Academy, top talents from different subsidiaries of the group can also communicate with each other more conveniently, answer each other's questions based on the boss's teaching videos, and perhaps spark new ideas."

Su Xin smiled, "I didn't expect that one day I would actually become an online course teacher."

Liu Qingli also started to laugh:

"That is not an ordinary online course teacher, but equivalent to the highest-level lecturer of the two academies."

"Alright, then I will tentatively believe your sweet talk. An online course teacher it is; I'll also indulge in the thrill of being a teacher."

Su Xin smiled and shrugged, which counted as agreeing to Liu Qingli's suggestion.

Recently, he had indeed realized the benefits of appropriate delegation, especially being freed from ordinary technical problems; his time and energy had been released to a greater extent.

The Advanced Lithography Machine that was about to be completed was a good example.

If it were before, he would have had to balance the strategic control of various subsidiaries and be responsible for the development and optimization of core technologies for each subsidiary, only being able to squeeze out a portion of his time for research and development occasionally.

According to that work model, it would have taken him at least another year or two to complete all the technical development of the Advanced Lithography Machine.

Not to mention that during this period, he also simultaneously developed Tianmu No. 2, Tianmu No. 3, and the newly launched Cancer Eradication Drug project.

He was not a god yet; he needed enough excellent subordinates to better expand and manage his own industry.

And the most important thing for Tianqi Group is technology.

Therefore, the technical talents under him must also be the top in the world.

Tianke Academy is indeed a good plan.

One day, the value and honor brought by the status of a Tianke Academy member will be more lofty and more recognized by the whole world than the academies of various countries, or even the honors of Nobel Prize winners.

By then, the world's top talents will flock to Tianqi Group with all their might.

Coupled with his cultivation.

The level of these top talents will improve, and by cooperating with each other, they will surely be able to burst forth with astonishing creativity.

This is more effective than simple high-salary attraction.

Su Xin briefly flipped through the electronic document of the plan, signed his name on the last page, and said, "This plan is good. You can discuss the details with other senior executives."

Liu Qingli simultaneously received the document signing feedback in the Tianwei Butler software.

She stood up and said, "Boss, if there is nothing else, I will go get busy first."

"Mm."

Su Xin nodded.

Watching Liu Qingli leave the office and gently close the door behind her, he then withdrew his gaze.

Leaning back against the chair, he began to ponder.

Just now, when Liu Qingli mentioned the Tianke Academy plan, he actually associated it with a more grand idea in his heart—

Supercomputer!

To be precise, an Artificial Intelligence program based on the powerful computing power of a supercomputer.

As everyone knows, a supercomputer can not only process massive amounts of data quickly but also perform complex simulations and deductions.

Coupled with the powerful logic and algorithms of an Artificial Intelligence program.

It can not only make great contributions to weather forecasting and climate simulation but also play an important auxiliary role in many fields such as medicine, biology, physics, and so on, by simulating molecular structures and chemical reactions.

One must know that the computing speed of a supercomputer reaches hundreds of quadrillions of operations per second, which is many times greater than Su Xin in the Ten Thousand Times God Speed state.

Therefore.

As long as there is a supercomputer, Su Xin's research and development speed will definitely be able to improve further.

Not to mention ordinary people.

With the assistance of a supercomputer, research and development efficiency will definitely be able to improve by a large margin.

If he develops the strongest supercomputer and pairs it with the strongest Artificial Intelligence, he will definitely be able to create the strongest scientific auxiliary tool.

Even without himself, the top talents attracted by the Tianke Academy plan who have been trained by him would be enough to easily crush any other scientific research team in the world.

Only then can Tianqi Group truly get rid of the situation of relying entirely on one person, and he himself will truly become a free man.

Rest when he wants to rest.

Research when he wants to research, and only need to research various super black technologies that only exist in science fiction movies or novels, rather than considering so-called cutting-edge technologies in terms of commercial competition.

By then.

They will no longer just be soldiers under his command opening up new territory, but his capable assistants who can share his worries in research and development work.

Just looking at the experience of developing the Lithography Machine this time, he can focus on tackling core technologies, while leaving the difficulties in various branch technologies to the various project teams of Tianke Academy.

By breaking down complex and numerous difficulties, letting each project team be responsible for the tackling of one branch technology, with the assistance of a supercomputer, plus his own overall command and key assistance, the research and development efficiency will increase several times over, and the time spent may be less than half of what it is now.

Sharpening the axe will not delay the work of cutting firewood.

A supercomputer equipped with an Artificial Intelligence program is a firewood-cutting axe that is incomparably sharp after being sharpened, and it is a firewood-cutting axe that everyone in the group can use.

And the most important, as well as the most fundamental, hardware requirement for a Supercomputer is the chip.

The top-tier chip!

Nowadays, the Advanced Lithography Machine that Su Xin is developing is nearing completion, providing the best hardware foundation for manufacturing top-tier chips.

Of course.

Chips, or rather CPUs, are not the entirety of Supercomputer technology; even if one truly designs and manufactures the best chip, it does not necessarily mean one can design the best Supercomputer.

Other important technologies for a Supercomputer include system architecture, interconnection networks, storage, systems, application software, power supply, cooling, and so on.

For example, the system architecture technology among them.

If a Supercomputer is an army, then the system architecture represents the army's organizational management level, discipline, morale, as well as the strategic command level at the top, the tactical command level in the middle and lower ranks, and the execution ability and combat effectiveness of every single soldier; it is a comprehensive capability in terms of the overall situation.

And the chip represents the physical fitness and combat effectiveness of an individual soldier.

In ancient times, the former was always far more important than the latter; if both could not be had, most generals would often place more emphasis on cultivating the former.

Applied to a Supercomputer, as long as the chip's computing power is not too vastly different, the system architecture often determines the level of the Supercomputer.

Besides this, to manufacture a top-tier Supercomputer, all other various technologies are also extremely important, and there cannot be any shortcomings.

Similar to the Lithography Machine.

It is also a systematic collection of technologies.

Su Xin is about to develop the Advanced Lithography Machine, which only means he possesses the foundation to manufacture the most advanced chips; breakthroughs in many other technologies are also required.
