The rise of nanometers

Seeing him lost in thought, Lin Baijie raised his glasses: "Xiuyuan, do you have any other ideas?"

Turning the ballpoint pen in his hand, Huang Xiuyuan opened his eyes and replied: "Information security is a very sensitive issue. The Prism incident in April last year and the 3Q war that just ended all illustrate one thing. The Internet needs to be more comprehensive and complete. order."

"The chairman plans to meet Zhou Hongwei?" Jiang Hailin understood the meaning of the words. After the 3Q settlement in November, the 360 ​​boss began to look for foreign aid.

Among the four major domestic Internet giants, Penguin is the rival, while Qiandu and Alibaba have ambiguous attitudes, and Time is very cold and seems not to care about this matter.

But Zhou Hongwei looked around the domestic Internet and found that only the Time system could compete with the Penguin system.

The reason is very simple, because the ecology of the Time System is more comprehensive than that of the Penguin System, and the domestic systems and semiconductors that are making a fuss are also produced by the Suiren Company behind the Time System.

According to various internal rumors, Long Totem’s smartphones, laptops, and desktop computers are already ready for use.

By then, domestic smartphones, laptops, and desktop computers will definitely only have software from domestic systems and Time Information, as well as software from companies such as Huawei, ZTE, and the three major operators.

Penguin, Alibaba and Qiandu can only wait for domestic electronic products to be launched, and then re-develop compatible software based on the Fuxi architecture.

This process will take at least half a year. Even if the Suiren system does not exclude these Internet giants from entering, it will be difficult for them to compete with Time Information.

"In this era of bad Internet, if you want to choose a good one among the bad sweet potatoes, forget it." Huang Xiuyuan shook his head and sarcastically said.

Lin Baijie and Jiang Hailin are also very helpless. Among the major domestic Internet companies, the only ones that can be favored by Suiren are Jindong, NetEase and 360. Sohu, whose boss is always a salty fish, can barely count.

And Lin Baijie knew some of Huang Xiuyuan's concerns. After all, the Suiren system was too big.

Huawei, ZTE and the three major operators, which do not have an Internet software ecosystem, will have a hard time defeating Time Information in the domestic system if they do not adopt other off-the-shelf tactics.

Huang Xiuyuan is very clear. Time Information can occupy a dominant position in the domestic system, but it cannot occupy a monopoly position.

This is not in line with the above line, and is not good for society and the people. Moreover, the Suiren Group has been shouting about anti-monopoly, so they must not slap themselves in the face.

"Then I'll find a time to invite them over?" Lin Baijie asked.

Huang Xiuyuan nodded: "Yes! Bring Sohu with you too! Wang Banxian still has abilities, but his strategic vision cannot keep up with the times."

"No problem." Lin Baijie couldn't help laughing.

Several people talked about the previous data center in Guizhou Province. Huang Xiuyuan read the plan of Time Information. This data center was set up at the junction of Guiyang and Anshun in Guizhou Province, which was also the later Gui'an New District.

After Huang Xiuyuan read the plan of Time Information, he shook his head: "It's too petty."

"Uh..." Jiang Hailin hesitated a little. He felt that this plan was already quite large, and he swallowed: "Chairman, I feel that this scale is not small."

"One data center in Gui'an alone is not enough, and it is only cloud services and cloud storage. The business is too single and the ability to resist risks is too poor." After Huang Xiuyuan finished speaking, he stood up.

When he came to the wall on one side, there was a national map hanging on the wall. He picked up a few red magnetic stickers, which were located in Gui'an, Gui'an Province, Shanmei, Lingnan Province, Jiujiang, Gan Province, Hebi, Hebi Province, and Tongliao, Mongolia District. , Qingyang, Gansu Province, with red stickers affixed one after another.

"Six?" Jiang Hailin was a little uneasy.

Huang Xiuyuan said calmly: "That's right, there are six data centers. If it is just one in Gui'an, it will be detrimental to the service quality of cloud services and strategic security."

After hearing his answer, Lin Baijie pondered for a while: "Xiuyuan, if six are built, will the scale of this data center in Guiyang need to be reduced?"

"Your eyes cannot see the future Internet." Huang Xiuyuan continued:

"Today's global root servers are all in foreign countries, mainly in the United States, and there is only one secondary root server in Japan. IPv4 address resources are already very tight, and IPv6 is our future."

After reading the relevant information, Jiang Hailin immediately realized that Huang Xiuyuan was not just building a data center, but was building his own root server.

From the location of the six mirror root servers, one is basically equipped for a large area, and they are all areas with relatively backward economies, which is conducive to improving local economic development and strategic security.

As for the heat dissipation issue that many people are worried about, in fact, during the construction of the Haifeng County data center and the Texas Pingyuan County data center, Time Information initially used high-power central air conditioners for cooling.

With the breakthrough in thermoelectric material technology, Long Totem, Snail Industry and Time Information cooperated to develop a server waste heat power generation system, coupled with a rooftop solar power generation system, which not only solved the heat dissipation problem, but also reduced the overall energy consumption of the server.

The current energy consumption of the Haifeng County data center is 45 to 60% lower than that of other data centers of the same type.

Before the renovation, the annual electricity consumption of the Haifeng County data center was 1.37 billion kilowatt-hours. Even with subsidies from Shanmei, electricity still cost 0.42 yuan per kilowatt-hour, and the annual electricity bill reached 575.4 million yuan.

After the renovation was completed late last year, electricity bills dropped by about half.

This change is a huge benefit for companies that operate data centers. After all, reducing electricity bills by half means an increase in profit margins.

With this kind of technology, the Suiren system can operate data centers even in subtropical areas like Shantou and Mei.

"I will communicate with the superiors about the mirrored root server. After all, I have been using the root server in the United States, and security issues are also a big trouble."

Jiang Hailin was determined in his heart: "Then I will let Time Information prepare this plan."

"By the way, is Time Information's Gui'an Center planning to invite bids, or is it designated?"

Jiang Hailin flipped through the documents: "We are planning to invite bids. Are there any questions?"

"Recently, in the domestic server market, Dell, HP, IBM and Liangxiang have been very aggressive in lowering prices, and the supply prices of some parts are also rising. It seems that they intend to squeeze the living space of domestic server manufacturers." Huang Xiuyuan looked at the domestic map, seemingly Looking for something.

Lin Baijie and Jiang Hailin were stunned. This situation made them frown.

Although servers are rarely exposed to the general public, they are one of the most important cornerstones in the Internet industry.

Jiang Hailin checked the database of the market research team and found the domestic server market situation in 2010.

After reading it, he frowned: "The prices of Dell, HP, IBM and Liangxiang servers have dropped by 20 to 30% year-on-year. Last year, these four companies accounted for 69% of the server market. The situation is not good."

"That's why I want to launch six data centers to ensure that domestic server manufacturers can survive while completing the layout of the Time Information Industry."

"I understand." Lin Baijie also knew that this matter could not be delayed.

If foreign companies bring down Inspur, Sugon and Great Wall, it may have a negative impact on the strategy of domestic semiconductors.

Fortunately, the Suiren Group, which has a huge capital reserve, can provide blood transfusions to companies such as Inspur and Shuguang in disguise through the construction of infrastructure and supporting facilities.
