God's Crown

What kind of project is this? If the doctor hadn't read it, he would never know, but the Yucheng Institute for Advanced Study still has such a project.I still want to do this subject, if it is in the research institute of other universities, or in other advanced research institutes.Especially the ones that have been famous for a long time, he believes that this is possible.

But Yucheng Advanced Research Institute, to put it bluntly, is not sure whether it can be done.Although many people came to Yucheng Institute for Advanced Study, and the strength of these deputy directors to become directors should not be underestimated.

In any case, the Yucheng Institute for Advanced Study has no experience with such a large-scale project.

Strong research ability does not necessarily mean that something can be researched.Just like the project he saw now, he couldn't even imagine how it could be done.

The doctor's hands trembled slightly. He jumped from Peking University to the Yucheng Institute for Advanced Study just after graduating from the Ph.D.It is indeed much better than Beijing University here, how should I put it.There are too many talents at Beijing University, and everyone seems to be competing.He dare not not compete, if not, then he may be eliminated.

Besides, although some projects there are much better than Yucheng Advanced Research Institute.However, as a scientific research dog, he may even be doing odd jobs in the laboratory.These newly graduated PhDs, if they are not particularly talented and powerful to a certain extent, basically have to do odd jobs at the Peking University laboratory for many years before they have the opportunity to get in touch with important projects.

Unlike the Yucheng Advanced Research Institute, although there are still people doing odd jobs in the laboratory, there are still many opportunities for people like them who have graduated with a Ph.D.

"Deputy Office Han, are you sure this is a subject assigned by the dean?"

"Ah."

Han Qiu is the deputy director of the Institute of Physics of the Yucheng Institute for Advanced Study, and it seems appropriate to be called Deputy Institute Han.Han Qiu will not worry about whether this title is correct or not. This is not what he should worry about now.It was the problem with this project. From Han Qiu's point of view, no matter how many people cooperated, if Professor An Yan had something to do and didn't take care of it, they couldn't do this project at all.

That's right, just can't do this project.

It was so difficult that he didn't know how to do this project at all.

Thinking about it, I feel that I have a headache. What should he do for this project?After frowning and thinking for a while, Han Qiu shook his head.

The professor is simply embarrassing him.

If he can really work on this project with a few seniors, not to mention reaching the height of a professor.But there must be half of the professor's level.

But now, Han Qiu dare not say that he has half of the professor's level, or even a quarter of the professor's level, or even one-fifth of the professor's level.

The doctor was still looking at the project. After a while, he still didn't seem to come back to his senses.

Han Qiu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Why, I'm still surprised."

The doctor said with a look of dumbfounding, "Deputy Han is not only surprised, I'm just..." I don't know what to say about this matter, if Professor An did it himself.Perhaps it is really possible to do it. After all, Professor An has created so many miraculous things, there are not many more things, and there are not many things less.They can all understand, the crux of the problem is whether Professor An has not included himself.

It says that the collaborators are from the Institute of Mathematics, Yucheng Institute for Advanced Study.Chen Ming and Wang Yunqi can also be regarded as celebrities of the Yucheng Institute for Advanced Study, both of whom are big bosses.Not to mention their group of doctoral students who just graduated, even the group of professors admire them.

Even so, he felt it was almost impossible to do this project.

This project is just too difficult.

"Oh." Sighing, the doctor said to Han Qiu with a bitter face, "Didn't Deputy Han discuss this issue with Dean An?"

"Say it." Han Qiu shrugged his shoulders, "But the professor thinks we can do it."

"No way..." The doctor's voice suddenly increased, attracting the attention of the researchers who were still working beside him.

Everyone stopped, looked at the doctor and said, "What happened?"

Han Qiu watched the researchers in his experimental group stop, coughed lightly and said, "How is everyone's research going?"

"It's okay." Someone said at this time, "We have almost completed the research, and I think Deputy Han is very clear about this."

"It's going to be a holiday soon." Han Qiu said in a deep voice, "The Yugao Court will be here for a while, but Dean An asked me to give you a vaccination. It must not be as long as I was in the university before."

"It doesn't matter." Most of the researchers were already attracted by the A4 paper in the doctor's hand. Obviously, there must be nothing wrong with the A4 paper for future research projects.

"What is in your hand?"

"Hey..." Before Han Qiu could speak, the A4 paper was taken away.

"what?"

"how is this possible!"

"No!"

Surprised voices spread in the laboratory, and everyone looked at the A4 in surprise.After a long time, it seems that they are not sure that the content on this A4 paper is really their next topic.

A small group of researchers who were still working also stopped. They surrounded the researchers holding A4 papers, trying to get together to see what the project was, which made people feel like they lost control of their emotions.

When they saw the content on the A4 paper, they still had expressions of disbelief and even shock.

Everyone finally raised their heads to look at Han Qiu and said, "Deputy Office Han, is the dean serious?"

"When did you feel that the dean is not serious about doing things?" Han Qiu asked such a question, but no one said anything.It is true that when their dean is not serious about things.This is really an unimaginable thing, at least in their view, it is almost unimaginable.

Dean The dean they saw must be very serious in doing things.

Almost a workaholic, spending days in the office researching.Moreover, the most amazing thing is that the dean doesn't care about them even if he stays in the office for several days or doesn't go out for more than ten days in a row.They can really figure out a lot of things. For example, the NP-complete problem they know is directly solved by the dean after more than ten days of pondering in the dean's office of the Yucheng Institute for Advanced Study.

At that time, everyone was shocked, although they knew that the dean was a master of mathematics.But knowing that this mathematical problem was solved at their Yucheng Institute for Advanced Study, that feeling is very different.

Everyone looked at Han Qiu sadly and said, "Deputy Office Han, haven't you persuaded the principal?"

"If I could persuade the dean, I would have already persuaded you, why do you still need to say it?" Han Qiu looked at the group of researchers, sighed and said, "It's not that I don't want to persuade the dean, but that I can't persuade the dean at all. "

When he said that when the time came, he paused and said, "Why don't you go and persuade yourself?"

Come on, are you kidding me?After all, Han Qiu was also a student of the dean. They went to persuade the dean to stop making trouble, but the dean still didn't scold them out.

But this project, really...they can't do anything at all.

"Can't you talk to Professor An? This project is really too difficult." Everyone said that if they really want to do this project, it is very likely that they will not be able to do it.

"There is no way." Han Qiu spread his hands and said, "The professor has explained that even if we don't want to do this thing, we must do it."

Rubbing the center of his brows, Han Qiu also felt quite a headache. He really didn't know what to do about this matter, and besides, the professor seemed to be able to help them very little.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and you don't seem to know what to say.They want to talk about it, but they don't seem to feel right.It was really a headache, Han Qiu looked at the expressions of the staff in his laboratory and said dumbfoundedly, "Don't look at me like that, it's useless to look at me."

"How about this, let's make this first, and think about what to do after you go home. If it really doesn't work, I will tell the professor." Han Qiu's expression became serious, "But this matter, we must Try, you can only try, the professor has already asked us to try, even if we don't want to try. I'm afraid the professor will... let us do it."

While Han Qiu was talking, Chen Ming stood outside the door listening to Han Qiu's words very curiously.After a while, he said with a confused face, "What's the matter, Brother Han, what are you talking about with them?"

"No, you can see for yourself." Han Qiu handed the paper to Chen Ming.Chen Ming, who was holding the paper, looked at it seriously, and after a while he said, "Professor...are you joking?"

"Do you think the professor will make fun of the project?" Han Qiu sighed, "We, your team and Junior Brother Wang's team are all busy with this matter."

Chen Ming's expression kept changing, "I'm not saying it's impossible, but it's really, unbelievable."

"Yeah, I think so too. It's unbelievable. I can't even believe that the professor would ask us to do this."

"How about I ask the professor?"

"I just came out of the professor's office, and the result is the same whether I ask the professor or not." Sighing, Han Qiu said, "It's better to think about what to do now."

"I really can't think of it." Chen Ming shook his head and said, "This thing, you and Junior Brother Wang, me and you, together, it is impossible to make it."

"How about we ask Junior Brother Wang for his opinion?" Both of them are older than Wang Yunqi, but this year Wang Yunqi is very likely to win the Fields Medal. As for them, this highest academic honor is still far away from them. Somewhat distant.At least, it is impossible to obtain that kind of reward now.

Wang Yunqi, who was calculating in his laboratory, frowned when he saw Chen Ming and Han Qiu walking hand in hand.His intuition told him that there must be something wrong with the two senior brothers coming to his laboratory.

Because his project has been completed, all the researchers in the experimental group have left, and he gave the members of the research group a vacation.At present, he is left alone in the laboratory in case of emergency.When seeing the two senior brothers approaching, Wang Yunqi raised his head to look at them when he heard footsteps, "Senior brothers, what happened?"

"Junior Brother Wang, take a look for yourself." With a wry smile, Han Qiu handed the A4 paper to Wang Yunqi.

After Wang Yunqi looked at it for a while, he said in a daze, "Quantum computer?"

"Yes."

What is a quantum computer? It refers to a type of physical device that follows the laws of quantum mechanics to perform high-speed mathematical and logical operations, store and process quantum information.When a device processes and computes quantum information and runs quantum algorithms, it is a quantum computer.The concept of a quantum computer stems from the study of reversible computers.The purpose of researching reversible computers is to solve the problem of energy consumption in computers.

The characteristics of quantum computers mainly include fast operation speed, strong ability to process information, and wide application range.Compared with ordinary computers, the greater the amount of information processing, the more beneficial it is for quantum computers to perform calculations, and the accuracy of calculations can be ensured. ②

The quantum computer itself is a main content of the fourth industrial revolution - quantum information technology.

Quantum information technology can be roughly divided into two parts, one is quantum communication, and the other is quantum computing.The quantum computer is the most important part of quantum computing. It can be said that in quantum information technology, it is obvious that the quantum computer occupies a very important position.

Quantum computers are not something that can be done by any country. Apart from the United States, other countries are also researching, but compared with the United States, there is still some gap.

Huaguo itself has many scientific research institutions that are researching quantum computers, and even academicians in the Chinese Academy of Sciences are taking the lead in researching quantum computers.At this time, when they touched the field of quantum computers, Wang Yunqi actually didn't quite understand what the professor's thoughts were.

Looking at the content on the paper thoughtfully, the professor asked them to develop a complete quantum computer within two to three years.Among them, quantum mechanics and mathematics are very good, but information science is... a bit difficult to describe.In addition, quantum computers have been researched for so many years, and they have hardly read any literature and information in this regard.Now they have to learn this knowledge again, and their knowledge in this area can be said to be very lacking. It is almost impossible to complete it within two or three years.

But the professor has written clearly on the project, and the project will be completed within two to three years.It can be said that this is the time estimated by the professor himself.It can also be said that the professor's self-confidence can be made at this point in time.But they—really collapsed, they are not professors, it is impossible to solve three Millennium Prize puzzles in a row within a year, and it is impossible to really complete the quantum computer within a year.

"It's okay if we are only asked to study this subject." Wang Yunqi said in a deep voice, "but now we are not only asked to study this subject, but hope that we can study it within two to three years. To be honest, I Personally, it's hard to do."

"Me too..." When he said this, Han Qiu paused, "It's also difficult for me to do this." He covered his forehead, "I also talked to the professor about this issue, but obviously, the professor still want us to do this."

"It's too difficult." Chen Ming shook his head. "We didn't know anything about this before. It's true that Han Qiu and I are pretty good at quantum mechanics. But it's just pretty good. Junior Brother Wang is better. I think Junior Brother Wang's level is considered to be the first-class in the world. But we don't understand this industry at all, and have never done related work. Now we go to research in a daze, and we don't know how many detours we will take. "

"Where is the professor?" Wang Yunqi was still calm now, thought for a while and said, "Will the professor participate in this project?"

"I'm not sure, but what I heard from the professor is that he will not take the initiative to participate in too many researches related to this topic. It is very likely that the three of us will lead a team to tackle all the technical problems in two or three years. Make a quantum computer." After Han Qiu finished speaking, he had a bitter face, "It's really hard for me to imagine that it took more than ten years or even a longer period of time for various teams to make a quantum computer. things, made out of thin air."

"Professor is probably asking us according to his own standards." Chen Ming said with his head down. "Before, the International Mathematics Research Center of Peking University had a project with the military. You also know that. The professor just finished the project. It will take two to three years or even more time for Beijing University.”

Chen Ming said with a wry smile, "But when the professor solved the NP-complete problem, he directly told the military that it could be done within a few months."

"Oh my god, when I heard this, I was completely stunned. The professor really..."

"Monster." Han Qiu said slowly, "The professor is a monster, but we are still in the category of ordinary people."

"It's useless for you to frown now." Wang Yunqi was as calm as ever, "Since the professor asked us to do it, he must value our ability and think we can do it."

"In fact..."

"Regardless of whether we can actually make it or not, we still need to try." Wang Yunqi rubbed his brows, "I also know that a quantum computer is not something that the three of us can make with our efforts. "

"We should try our best to try it anyway? If we don't even have the courage to try, I'm afraid the professor will be very disappointed with us. No matter whether we can make it or not, we must at least try it."

"Okay, now our project is almost finished." Chen Ming nodded, "Even if it's a holiday, I may not be able to go home."

"I originally wanted to go home for the New Year, but now it seems that I should continue to study informatics in Yugaoyuan." Han Qiu shook his head and said, "But the mathematics, I still have to leave to Junior Brother Wang."

"In that regard, I shouldn't have any problems, including the part of informatics, I can also dabble in some. But my quantum mechanics may not be as good as the two seniors, and the physics part has to be entrusted to the two seniors."

"Okay, let's work together separately." Chen Ming showed a smile, "At least, we have to let the professor see that we are really working hard on this matter. Whether we can succeed or not, we need to try to know."

After the three clapped their hands, they went to do their own thing.

An Yan, who stood up in the dean's office and looked out the window, smiled slightly. I don't know what kind of expressions other researchers and other students will have when they see his project.He is looking forward to it, and he does not expect his students to actually make quantum computers within two or three years.

He will also be involved in this project, but not now.He estimated that in the near future, the military will definitely approach him to discuss new projects.

After stabilizing the cooperative relationship with the military, he will participate in the quantum computer project.

Stretching for a while, counting the time, Captain Ye must have arrived at the National University of Science and Technology in Xiangtan.

…………

Xiangtan Province, within the University of Science and Technology of China.

Captain Ye handed the USB flash drive to an old professor. After the old professor opened the USB flash drive, he began to study it.It was normal at first, but as he browsed more pages, his frown became deeper.

Captain Ye also noticed the old professor's expression, he has not spoken yet.

The old professor continued to look at the content in the USB flash drive, but there was not much content.It took half a day to browse through it roughly, and the old professor didn't read it carefully.After browsing it once, he turned around and said to Captain Ye, "Who made this algorithm?"

"Professor Qi, what's the problem?"

"It's a bit weird." The old professor frowned and thought for a while, "This algorithm is different from the previous style of Beijing University. It is more tricky and difficult to crack. I haven't looked at this algorithm seriously. I need a lot of things. You need to study it carefully." The old professor stared at Captain Ye, "Who made this algorithm?"

"Dean An of the Yucheng Institute for Advanced Study, do you have any questions to ask Dean An?"

"Dean An of the Yucheng Institute for Advanced Study?" The old professor was stunned for a moment, then muttered to himself, "Is the Dean An you're talking about An Yan, the director of the Department of Physics at Yucheng University?"

"Yes." Captain Ye nodded lightly.

"So that's it." The old professor's brows seemed to relax a little, "I said why I browsed through this algorithm and couldn't find how to crack it. It turned out to be him."

"I took a look at this algorithm, and there should be no problem. But to be on the safe side, I have to study it carefully for a few days." After the old professor finished speaking, he looked at Captain Ye, "If there is nothing wrong , you live in the National University of Science and Technology for a few days, do you have any objection?"

"Of course not." Captain Ye smiled, "It seems that Professor Qi is very relieved of Dean An."

The old professor stared at Captain Ye, "I'm not worried about An Yan, but I'm worried about his academic level. His academic level in mathematics is almost unmatched by anyone in the world. At least in modern mathematics For those who are still alive, no one in the academic field of mathematics has researched as deeply as his."

"Even, we don't know where his academic level is at all, so it's hard to guess. However, this algorithm, he can do it in a short time. And he did it when he was working on a Millennium Prize problem , I believe that his academic level has reached an incomprehensible level." The old professor said, "Okay, I will tell you what to do after so much. Research will do."

The old professor left the office, leaving the old professor's students and Captain Ye standing awkwardly in the office.

The students looked at Captain Ye, at this time Captain Ye smiled at the students, turned around and wanted to leave the office.Suddenly a student said, "Mr. Captain."

"Uh..." Captain Ye paused, then turned to look at the old professor's students, "Do you have any questions?"

"Have you met An Yan, the one who won the Fields Medal and the Nobel Prize?"

"Yes, I have."

"Is he very good?"

How does he know whether An Yan is good or not? He is not an academic.

"It should be...very powerful. I think many people respect Dean An very much."

"I really want to have a chance to talk with him. I believe that I can learn a lot."

Captain Ye forced a smile and left the office.

After staying in the National University of Science and Technology for almost half a month, the old professor handed him the USB flash drive, and said to him very solemnly, "The algorithm is very weird and subtle, and it is difficult for people to crack. At least I For half a month, I tried countless methods, but I couldn't figure out the principle of this algorithm at all."

"It's very interesting." The old professor smiled when he said this, "You can take it back with confidence, there won't be any problems."

"Thank you, Professor Qi." After Captain Ye saluted, it was as if a big stone fell from his heart.Leaving Xiangtan, he returned directly to the capital.

After arriving in the capital, he returned to the army to report non-stop.

"Chief." Standing in the office, Captain Ye handed the USB drive to Colonel Tang, "I've already checked it with Professor Qi from the National University of Science and Technology."

"What did Professor Qi say?"

"It's very difficult to crack, or in other words, there is no way to crack it. This algorithm is perfect." Captain Ye thought about Professor Qi's words, and continued, "Professor Qi thinks this algorithm can be used directly."

"Really?" Colonel Tang smiled, "That Dean An is really... formidable."

After expressing emotion, Colonel Tang seemed to have thought of something, and said to Captain Ye, "By the way, how many times have you met Dean An?"

"Yes..." Captain Ye was taken aback, "Chief, is there anything else you need to discuss with Dean An?"

"It's not our business." Colonel Tang said with a smile, "but it is indeed our military's business."

"..." Captain Ye could see that the chief wanted him to be a middleman to introduce the project to Dean An.

Colonel Tang took the phone and dialed a number.

Seeing Colonel Tang's smug expression, Captain Ye was a little speechless.I don't know whether the chief is calling someone in the military.
