My Return to Life

Late at night after twelve in the morning.

There are colorful traffic on the roads of various prosperous cities.

It is the same as the flashing lights of various colors on the information highway at this time.

The information disclosed by anonymous individuals in the small forum is just the beginning.

Then a lot of inside information broke out.

There is also a picture of an internal confidential document, further adding fuel to the fire.

"People abroad can only remain anonymous. It is rumored that the cooperation between Godson and Frontier began in the first half of the year. Frontier directly invested 158 million yuan in funds, and Godson provided 2 million yuan and made up 160 million yuan to establish a technology alliance plan. The research and development work of pure self-developed CPU is shown in the figure.

Picture 1:

A corner of a confidential document, read some text:

‘Technology Alliance Program...Frontier Baize Lab, Godson...’

‘...’

‘A Loongson processor research project based on Bzloong instruction set system...’

‘...’

The anonymous person who made the news public made a final addition:

"Longson originally used the MIPS instruction set. Now it has replaced the instruction set system whose name is easy to guess. It shows that the degree of autonomy of the CPU research and development work starts from the most basic level, so wait for the big news!

PS: It is said that publicizing these will be held accountable..."

"..."

A series of big insider news spread rapidly through the public cyberspace.

Transmission efficiency is far beyond imagination.

It may be that in the next second, a certain related issue that is pressing will specifically modify the main problem.

"What do you think of the frontier white dragon exposed by a forum? Does the autonomy of the instruction set mean that the era of domestic CPUs is really coming? Why does the frontier adopt a strict message blocking strategy?"

Synchronously revised the problem description and added a lot of information.

"...According to incomplete statistics, on November 11, the zero degree computer was donated free of charge for the first time, and the University of Science and Technology of China received and used it. It was not until the 11th that the first gossip said that the zero degree computer used an uncommon CPU...

...

Will the information exposed in a forum adversely affect the frontier?

...

Will anonymous persons really be held accountable?

...

Is it related to the business plan? "

"..."

Countless users are forced to call friends and call friends to answer this question, and it quickly became a hot spot.

Many people responded.

"Thank you, you are so talented and shallow, unable to answer this big question completely;

To put it simply, there must be a reason for the strict confidentiality of the frontier. According to the time period, it is expected that this white dragon may have been successfully taped out before August or earlier;

So far, at least it has been strictly confidential for more than a month. From this, we know that the frontier will be held accountable. "

"..."

"Generally speaking, few chip manufacturers now choose self-developed instruction sets for many reasons, such as application compatibility, etc. The cutting-edge Bailong D1-S can be regarded as semi-commercial, with at least 6,000 chips. Shipment, it’s hard to say how big a business plan is;

I personally think that exposing the CPU model and parameters doesn’t matter. We really shouldn’t expose the confidential document research and development plan. This will definitely have a very serious impact. For a large company like cutting-edge, it may easily cost hundreds of millions of dollars (refer to this technology) The initial funding of the alliance program is 160 million). "

"..."

"If the information is true, and with the cutting-edge and consistent behavior,% of this white dragon processor is purely self-developed, which can be regarded as a completely independent domestic CPU, even the Shenlong 1 is incomparable;

From another angle, it can also be explained that the inspections of the top leaders are definitely not aimless. "

"..."

"From the point of view of the exposure parameters, the performance of Bailong is not very strong, but it is more than enough for daily office;

It is estimated that it is a test water product. The donation to the frontier institute should be for the use of feedback. Unfortunately, it was exposed in this way, otherwise it is really possible to directly give the wintel alliance a killer. "

"..."

"Thanks for the invitation, related to the semiconductor industry, I can only say that I look forward to further news, and I am not optimistic about this true suicidal R&D plan, especially the situation that has been exposed now;

However, I have to say that this wave is well done. Who doesn't want the rise of science and technology in their own country! I sincerely hope that Frontier can withstand this wave of pressure. "

"..."

"Thank you, I don't know anything, I just want to ask, is the era of domestic CPU coming?"

"..."

What's interesting is that when the truth was unknown before, the sharp-spoken users seemed to have all rested, almost completely disappeared.

As if these people lost their edges and corners all at once.

No more e-waste.

Even the exposed CPU parameters show a significant lag compared to the current mainstream CPU.

At this time, users are all excited.

As for other social platforms, it is a little messier, and of course the arguments in the general direction are all exciting.

After all, the domestic CPU that has been calling for so many years suddenly dawned.

…………

Almost at dawn, there are particularly good news about media contact frontiers, frontier sciences, and Luzhou frontiers.

Hope to seek official answers.

Obviously, no one answered.

But it does not prevent the media from writing articles, and said that before the deadline, there was no formal response from the frontier.

Anyway, the report is nothing more than a pen, you can write whatever you want.

In addition to these particularly good news media, some of the TV media’s morning news also took time to report on Internet news, specifically mentioning this uproar.

In the hours from early morning to more than 7 o'clock in the morning, netizens made noise to the point of no difference.

Countless fanfare.

This result is a little unexpected even for the front office.

But it did not affect Fang Nian's itinerary to go to school.

Only after finishing the first major class, Fang Nian saw Gu Yu walking into the campus low-key.

"..."

Gu Yu Yiwu's report: "Loongson, Jingjiawei, including several newly joined enterprises and institutions, have different degrees of leaks;

The information circulating on the Internet is easy to find the source of leaks;

There is no relevant leak source on our side, except for the part we arranged. "

After speaking, Gu Yu looked up at Fang Nian, somewhat helpless: "Some leaks are beyond our control."

"Even the Bzloong instruction set and the technical alliance plan have been completely obliterated. These companies are really going to eat and waste my cutting-edge funds." Fang Nian said coldly.

"You discuss with Wen Mi to determine the scope of core development and external cooperation, as well as the secret level specification."

"Can't be so casually penetrated like a sieve."

Gu Yu responded, "I will do it now."

"In addition, Wen always would like to ask you to determine the scope of the content of today's press conference."

Fang Nian thought about it for a while and said: "It's all like this, adjust it and put together the content that was originally planned to be released later."

"Great."

At the end, Gu Yu said: "We plan to arrange for the company's legal affairs to initiate the relevant accountability procedures. After all, there is a confidentiality agreement with these companies."

Fang Nian said, "Focus on expressing a cutting-edge attitude, and if necessary, financial compensation can be pursued."

Afterwards, Gu Yu left the Fudan campus.

"..."

Strictly speaking, this is not just an episode, but an accident.

Although the inside story of the news this time was deliberately released by Frontier Control, not all the exposed content was released by Frontier Control.

Some of the contents of confidential documents are exposed online that has nothing to do with cutting-edge.

And it's the part that the frontier doesn't want to be exposed, at least not now.

For example, the Bzloong instruction set system.

The instruction set is not a particularly difficult thing, but if a brand new instruction set is used, it is particularly obvious that the frontier is developing a CPU from scratch.

If you don't expose these, you might even think that Frontier obtained the X86 license from.

Or try to switch from a mobile phone to a computer through the existing arm authorization, or the MIPS instruction set.

At least it won’t be like this. A discerning person knows the frontier’s business plan at this level.

This is why the Zero Degree brand has been established for so long and has not sold computers to the outside world, but just donated it to the Forefront Institute, which has a close cooperation relationship, for free.

At the very least, we have to wait for the success of the first generation of the ‘early’ architecture, which can basically catch up with the second generation of Core i3; and DeskOS has been installed and tested by users in a large area, and there are a large number of ‘universal’ software compiled and generated by the nwL supporting compiler;

Exposure at this time will not have a major impact on the ‘DeskOS+’ grand strategy.

Because at that time, the DeskOS+ industry chain has already achieved initial success and has a certain combat effectiveness, at least it can be guaranteed to be used within a certain range.

It's better now...

There is no doubt that the frontier will face tremendous pressure next.

Although the current computer hardware is basically universal, the proportion of domestic core components is very low, and the excellent rate is lower.

In other words, it is possible that in the future, core component manufacturers will stop supporting DeskOS drivers.

Of course, in addition to the core hardware such as graphics cards, hard drives, and motherboards, other components will not be stuck with DeskOS.

And the most important thing is still high-end high-performance graphics...

Anyway, this time, Frontier only planned to announce the DeskOS+ plan.

It indicates that the DeskOS+White Dragon system will be promoted in the domestic market through the zero brand.

The white dragon here only indicates that it is a frontier self-designed white dragon processor, but does not indicate that it is a frontier self-developed processor.

Obviously not anymore.

…………

…………

In the afternoon, Fang Nian went to the front office.

Wen Ye submitted the full content of his speech to Fang Nian for review by Fang Nian.

Fang Nian turned over: "Generally there is no problem. I will use some wording on some matters to show a cutting-edge attitude."

"Okay." Wen Ye understood.

Fang Nian thought about it for a while, and said, "It's all like this, so let's just keep doing it."

"Liu Xi, you are going to prepare, you should have to work overtime today."

"..."

After speaking, Fang Nian got up and left the office.

After knowing the location of President Guan through the phone, Fang Nian asked the village chief to send him there...

The time flies, it is three o'clock in the afternoon.

Frontier held a simple media press conference.

CEO Wen Ye delivered a speech.

"..."

Wen Ye said: "Thank you very much for taking the time to come out of your busy schedule."

"Regarding some of the remarks against Frontier Group in cyberspace, our company publicly responds here."

"..."

"First, the zero-degree brand desktop computer does use the Luzhou cutting-edge self-developed processor, Bailong D1-S."

"Second, there is no plan to sell the desktop computers of the Zero degree brand in the short term."

"..."

After speaking, Wen Ye made a gesture: "Do you have any questions?"

"..."

Reporter A: "Mr. Wen, regarding the anonymous information on the Internet that the Bzloong instruction set used by your company's self-developed processor is a self-developed instruction set, why do you need a self-developed instruction set?"

Wen Ye: "Bzloong is not entirely a cutting-edge self-developed instruction set, and Loongson has contributed some technical data;

The purpose of self-developed instruction set is to better design the CPU.

Regarding the relevant technical parameters and indicators of the Bzloong and Bailong series processors, they will be announced on the official website of Zero Degrees later. There are many professional vocabulary, so I won't repeat them. "

"..."

Reporter B: "Wen, why doesn't the Zero degree brand sell computers to the outside world? And whether, as stated on the Internet, does Frontier treat the teachers and students of Frontier Academy as guinea pigs? Collect and use feedback for update iterations?"

Wen Ye: "Zero has a short establishment and does not have the ability to sell to the outside world;

For the second question, I remember that I said last time when I spoke on behalf of Frontier, I suggest you go back and check the meaning of the word "cooperation";

Secondly, any product used by users is accompanied by a feedback collection system, and it is necessary to update and iterate through user feedback. This is not a special case, please understand. "

"..."

A reporter C: "Why does the cutting-edge conduct strict information blockade? We think that the ability to independently develop computer processors is a matter worthy of special mention."

Wen Ye: "This involves some cutting-edge business plans. It is inconvenient to disclose. Being able to do one thing does not mean it must be publicized."

"At the same time, Frontier has initiated the accountability procedure;

Cooperative companies and persons who disclose confidential information anonymously will be held accountable in accordance with the non-disclosure agreement. Taking into account the possible losses, incidental economic liability will not be ruled out. "

"..."

Ask questions one by one.

Nearly twenty minutes passed without knowing it.

The reporter's questions are varied, and there are also many deliberately sharp and non-brained questions.

There is no way.

There will always be reporters like this, whether they pay for carriage or not.

In short, Wen Ye expressed a cutting-edge attitude in accordance with Fang Nian's requirements.

Accountability will be accompanied by economic accountability.

Of course, Wen Ye did not shy away from answering.

Otherwise, there is no need to hold this press conference.

"..."

Finally, Wen Ye answered a reporter's question again and then closed it up: "Okay, thank you friends from the press, this is the end of the question session."

"On behalf of the frontier, I announced a few small things~www.ltnovel.com~ First of all, I would like to thank the majority of users for their recognition of Nuwa DeskOS. Since the official launch on the 1st, the number of download users worldwide has officially exceeded 1 million;

According to incomplete statistics, the number of application software supporting DeskOS has exceeded 20,000;

In order to thank the majority of users and development engineers for their support, I announce that the free trial period of DeskOS will be extended for another 90 days. "

"..."

"The 500 million yuan development award launched in May has been reviewed and approved and 50 million yuan has been issued. Frontier earnestly hopes that all development engineers will continue their efforts."

"..."

"At last……"

Having said this, Wen Ye paused, staring at the audience vacantly, seeming to pause on everyone's head.

"I announced the start of the N+B strategy today."

"Foreign Nuwa Lab and Baize Lab have strategically combined to start the Nvwa system and Baize chip bundle plan;

Start the 64-bit architecture and operating system whole system plan;

The nwL supporting compiler has fully supported Bzloong instruction set program compilation, and will gradually support mainstream programming languages ​​on the market. In the future, it will gradually complete the transformation of the DeskOS application ecosystem to the Bzloong instruction system. "

"Please look forward to it."

"..."

The press conference ended here, but the reporters did not want to end, and the scene suddenly became disturbed.

Someone got up and shouted that Wen always stayed.

Someone directly asked the question.

However, Wen Ye did not respond and left the scene directly.

PS: On the last day of the month, ask for a monthly pass~ There should be an update today, about 1 more~

PS1: I am very envious of the big guy authors who can finish the book after talking, I'm really rubbish~
