No one spoke during a high-profile video conference for a long time.

After fixed thinking determined that Wang Yufei had absolutely no reason to license quantum computer technology at this time, they were indeed considering whether love would really make a decision-maker of a high-tech company make such a dizzy decision.

Moreover, this kind of decision, which they think is simply unbelievable, must be hindered by all parties. Lu Yuxin can really eat Wang Yufei to death. Even in the face of these obstacles, she is still willing to sign a contract with them and give them

technology?

In fact, judging from Wang Yufei's age, this seems possible.

The age of eighteen is the age when hormones are most secreted in the brain, and it is also the age when it is easiest to be seduced by love and fall in love casually to the point of death.

But the whole thing still seemed too childish.

If it's a general technology, that's fine. This is quantum computing hegemony, and it always feels like something is wrong.

"Ahem, Mr. Dracula, I undoubtedly question your efforts, but don't you think it would be too childish for a little girl to say these things?"

In one sentence, Jeff Bezos made everyone understand why something felt wrong.

Yes, Lu Yuxin is too young.

Only eighteen years old.

The suggestions made by an eighteen-year-old girl would make them feel like they were playing house.

In fact, Wang Yufei is only eighteen years old, but almost everyone deliberately ignores his age.

How can I put this into words? Some people are too good and will always unconsciously make people feel inferior. However, if you ignore some of the more excellent factors that can set them off, it can often make people feel better.

The more outstanding a person is, the more he needs this ability.

Otherwise, the frustration would be too uncomfortable.

Lu Yuxin is also a talented girl, but her level of genius is still within the tolerance range of everyone.

Wang Yufei is different. His excellence can easily make people feel ashamed.

…

"Mr. Bezos is right. In fact, I felt the same when talking to Ms. Lu. But her plan was very careful. As I just said, there was no cash transaction from beginning to end, and that piece of

The land and the built house will be transferred to others after the contract is signed. And there are corresponding arrangements at every step to mutually guarantee the rights and interests of both of us. Except for the initial $50 million deposit, of course, this money is not paid directly.

into her personal account. Instead, it was transferred into the account of an intermediary company through transfer.”

"Of course, these didn't completely impress me. The most important thing is that she promised me that if formal channels failed, she could also give us key technical information. This information was almost undefended for her. And she

After we get the land and complete the relocation, we can give us some key information for verification. As long as we receive the first batch of information, I think there will be no problem from now on."

The bosses were silent again.

I have to say that this trading rule is extremely tempting.

The most tempting part is that, as far as the current situation is concerned, they have no choice.

If they don't have equivalent technology, if Yuxin Technology really wants to act like a monster, they won't even have the power to fight back.

Faced with quantum hegemony, they couldn't resist even if Yuxin Technology asked for money to buy protection fees.

What's even more frightening is that once we fall into this situation, it means that everyone's stocks may be sold in a panic.

All the companies in the video conference, one by one, may not be able to escape the fate of the stock crash. After all, as long as it is an Internet-related industry, all have extremely high requirements for network security.

The reason why it has become a consensus that quantum supremacy can be achieved by being the first to possess quantum computer technology is because quantum computers will have a disruptive impact on the most fundamental security of the current Internet.

At the same time, the big guys at the scene all believed in the power of capital.

For them, it is normal for an eighteen-year-old girl to yearn for the life of a rich man.

And there seemed to be no problem with the entire transaction process.

Even if the initial $50 million sounds like a lot, it is not unacceptable if everyone comes together to spend this money to buy a hope.

"Okay, I believe everyone has made their own judgments. Here I will give you my final thoughts. The reason why I only found a few of you is because I have my own considerations. There is no doubt that among the many companies in the alliance, many

We are the company with the most financial strength, so I hope that this money will be shared equally by everyone. The total amount is five billion US dollars. Of course, everyone does not need to pay it all at once. Instead, this amount will be paid in batches according to the stage of the transaction.

The money goes into the league’s account.”

"Today we have the heads of eight companies, which means that each company will bear 6.25 million for the first 50 million US dollars. If the deal is successfully completed, it is estimated that each company will need to pay 625 million before tax. This

I will try my best to obtain various tax exemption policies for everyone, so in the end you may not have to pay so much."

"The benefit that everyone can enjoy is that when we officially start negotiating this deal with Yuxin Technology, you can all send negotiators to participate in the negotiation of this technology transfer. Secondly, once we reach an agreement with Yuxin Technology

Agreement, with complete computer technology, everyone will be the first to enjoy the full version of technical information. As for other members of the alliance to obtain these information, more than half of the representatives need to agree, including me of course.

"

After Love Dracula finished speaking, there was another moment of silence.

Then Tim Cook took the lead and asked: "I still have a question. According to you, the five billion US dollars is just money to buy Ms. Tong to persuade Wang Yufei. So if in the subsequent negotiations, the other party offers a far higher price,

If the conditions are beyond our ability to bear, or the conditions are simply unrealistic, then wouldn’t this money be wasted?”

Everyone looked at Love Dracula, waiting for the Secretary-General to give an answer.

"This is indeed a problem, but please recall our agreement with Ms. Lu. If Ms. Lu wants to finally obtain the US$5 billion in funds, a prerequisite is that we can eventually sign an agreement and successfully obtain it.

To get the technical information. In other words, in order to get the money, Ms. Lu will do her best to help us sign the agreement. So the other party will definitely not make unrealistic demands in this regard."

"Of course, Ms. Lu also said that she can't make it obvious. She can only guarantee that the conditions offered by Wang Yufei are definitely within our acceptable range. Now everyone can settle the accounts. If you want to rely on

With my own technical strength, I can develop a quantum computer that is equal to or even slightly inferior to that of Yuxin Technology. How much research and development funds will be invested and how much time will be spent? Ms. Lu assured me that the conditions offered by the other party will not exceed five years.

.”

No one was asking questions, but they were carefully thinking about the feasibility of this transaction.

Love Dracula was no longer in a hurry. After waiting for five minutes, he continued to ask: "Okay, now everyone can start voting. If you are willing to participate in this transaction, please raise your hands. If you have concerns, you want to wait and see."

I don't force it, but one thing is that I hope everyone can keep strictly confidential what we discussed today. At least before we get all the technical information, no rumors will come out. Ms. Lu is very concerned about this. If someone leaks it

message, which means this transaction is automatically voided."

There is no doubt that in the end everyone was involved in Love Dracula's plan.

It is expected to cost US$5 billion, but each company will ultimately pay only US$625 million, which is nothing more than a drop in the bucket compared to the research and development of quantum computers.

Although this is only the initial capital required, everyone feels that it is worthwhile to spend such a small amount of money to buy an opportunity that is not controlled by others.

The most important thing is that there is official cover for this matter.

After all, Love Dracula also has another identity. He is the Secretary-General of the National Academy of Sciences.

…

News from the boss can be one step ahead, but it is only one step ahead.

In the Internet era, if the authenticity of the message is not considered, the speed can take off.

The reason why the Huaxia network is still calm is because when the news started to ferment on the external Internet, it was already late at night in Huaxia.

Even if those busy self-media people are so shocked that their eyes pop out of their sockets, they won’t be able to affect a few people.

But things will be different once daybreak.

The quantum computer recognized by many world-famous physicists was born in China, and the news that the Chinese have mastered quantum supremacy has spread overwhelmingly.

And this time it didn’t come out of nowhere.

The words posted by the scientists on Twitter are all in English. It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand them. There are considerate translations.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t quite believe these translations, there is supporting evidence.

The global Bitcoin market has experienced a flash crash. The price of Bitcoin has flash crashed from a high of US$12,000 to the current US$3,760, and continues to fall, but at a slightly slower pace.

You must know that the currency market is basically a 24-hour transaction, so the market adaptive ability is very powerful.

Generally speaking, if these news are proven false, the market will recover quickly.

After all, there are many people in the world who also need this fully encrypted currency.

However, the Bitcoin market is not improving at all.

This is enough to explain a lot of things.

The strongest Bitcoin is like this, not to mention other currencies that have been hotly speculated. Various platform currencies have plummeted to the point where no one cares about them. There are a lot of them for sale on the platform, and no one is buying them at all.

Even many of them have fallen by 300%, but there are still no entrants.

If more evidence is needed, it is probably that almost all high-tech stocks in Silicon Valley have started a plummeting feast. From Apple to Google, from Microsoft to Amazon, and then to Facebook, it is embarrassing to have a drop of less than 13 points.

Calls itself a Silicon Valley company.

That is to say, traditional high-tech companies such as Boeing have performed relatively tenaciously, otherwise the high-tech sector that holds up half of the U.S. stock market would have almost collapsed.
