The Rebirth of the Male God Starts From Playing Games
Chapter 55: You'll understand after a few months
Chapter 55 55. Wait a few months and you will understand
Throughout November, Bomi was busy buying server shops to prepare for the future rollout of online games.
Online games, if you want to avoid the generation of plug-ins, a lot of data must be run and stored on the server.
The user scale is large, and each information interaction is massive, and the corresponding number of servers is very large.
And Bomid has to add servers all over the country, so as to alleviate the transmission pressure of the servers.
Although optical transmission is fast, it does not take time.
For example, assuming that Bomi only has a server in the Imperial Capital, you need to run a distance of nearly 2,000 kilometers from a third-tier city in Guizhou to the Imperial Capital.
A round trip of more than 4000 kilometers, the propagation speed of light is about 300,000 kilometers per second, and the delay caused by the process of analysis and calculation and packet sending will be as high as 0.013 seconds.
1 second is equal to 1000 milliseconds.
In other words, there will be a delay of 13 milliseconds.
Add unpacking, calculation and sending...
The delay will be about 0.5 to 1 second.
More than 100 milliseconds of delay, people will feel a very obvious freeze.
It is difficult to accept such a long delay within the scope of human cognition.
And this thing will gradually increase with the length of the game.
To give a very simple example, you have been 13ms slower than others, then when your 13ms packet arrives, others have been acting for a while, and next time you are 13ms slower, if the server cannot do synchronization and difference If you calculate, you will find that you suddenly start to drop frames, just like flashing, suddenly moving from this position to another position.
The more you go to the back, because the larger the accumulated difference in the previous period, the more difficult it is to calculate, and the more serious the delay and packet loss will be.
What's more, in 2000, server technology was far less powerful than in 21 years. At that time, Internet companies adopted nothing more than two methods:
One is server tactics, increasing the number of servers.
Second is the server-sharing technology, which breaks up players into multiple small groups, such as Telecom District 1, Telecom District 2, East China District 1, North China District 1...
One server probably maintains online data of about 1,000 people.
Then, in order to make the data more efficient, we solve the problem by setting up computer rooms in different locations:
For example, in North China, the main computer room may be in the Imperial Capital, requiring 100 to 500 servers.
Then these servers only serve people in North China, so that the delay caused by long-distance transmission and protection can be avoided.
Because after the chess hall is online, it may face terrible server pressure.
...
In 2000, the best server in the world was made by IBM.
The server is simply a computer, but you need to buy the best computer to take on the role of the server.
Storage capacity is one aspect. The important thing is that the computing speed is fast enough, otherwise just a few million packages per second will be enough to crash.
There are not many companies that can produce high-end computers in China. At the time, Lenovo was considered the largest computer manufacturer in China, but it was still a bit behind the foreign ones. Although it occupied 1/3 of the domestic market share, a very important reason was because Lenovo is more cost-effective and has state support.
Although Cao Yang also wanted to contribute to the cause of the motherland, after weighing it over and over, he gave up buying Lenovo servers and decided to buy IBM instead.
In this era, whether it is cpu, motherboard, graphics card, flash memory, or hard disk, basically the domestic foundry, the technology is almost all abroad.
If you want to blame, you can only blame the special association.
Clearly backed by the National Academy of Sciences, there is a large pool of talents, but they have given up on the road of self-study, otherwise they will not let others get stuck in the future.
However, when Cao Yang became the boss, he could understand Liu Chuan's ideas well. As a businessman, making money is the first thing. The cost of engaging in technology, especially computer hardware technology, is very high, and the short-term benefits can be said to be negligible. .
It is possible that you can go down to 10 billion every year and spend 20 years to produce Huawei’s 5G.
So the prevailing concept at the time was that it is better to build than to buy, get rich first, use economic advantages and then turn back to build a car.
In fact, there is no big mistake.
Who can tell whether the cost of first manufacturing is low, or the cost of late manufacturing is high?
But if you don’t smash, you are doomed to be stuck in your throat forever.
...
Before IBM was acquired by Lenovo, in 2000, its server production quality was absolutely one of the best. Later, Dell, HP, Huawei, and Alibaba Cloud gradually caught up.
The most important thing is that IBM is the earliest computer manufacturer in the United States, and it is also the first computer giant to cooperate with China.
At that time, there were not many choices in China.
Bomi spent about 10 million on server fees.
Cao Yang's heart was bleeding.
Bomi’s reserves are running out. According to the calculation of the financial manager, there are about 20 million left.
Because the online games of the year have not yet emerged, and everyone does not know how profitable this thing is, the downstream supply chain is not perfect enough, and the subsequent server supplier leasing industry has not yet formed.
Otherwise, Cao Yang can completely rely on renting a server to solve the problem.
But this is just a small head.
The bandwidth cost in the future is the most terrible. If you want to maintain 1 million people online, the monthly bandwidth alone is estimated to be tens of millions.
Now Cao Yang only buys online according to the highest number of 500,000 people.
In fact, Liu Guangran didn’t quite understand this: "Boss, did we think so much about so many people at the beginning?"
After all, in the chess and card game hall at that time, Lianzhong, the largest number of people, also died online with 100,000 people.
Now that Cao Yang wants to estimate 500,000 people in one go, there is always a suspicion that he is crazy.
However, since Cao Yang took over Bomi, there is nothing he has done that makes people think that he is a lunatic.
Now Liu Guangran is a little used to it.
Some people brag and criticize, if it doesn’t come true, then they are bragging.
If it is realized, it is called a great prophet.
Although Cao Yang was watched by Liu Guangran like a fool, he also looked at Liu Guangran like a fool.
"You don't know the push capabilities of QQ. You will understand after a few months."
