Chapter 746 The Development of Quantum Computers
Chapter 747
"Gu Lu, it's really you!"
Ai Liang's voice was full of surprise.
Gu Lu had a faint smile on his face and said hello with a smile, "Senior Brother Ai."
"Where have you been during this time? I couldn't reach you on the phone. I went to Yanjing University to look for you, but the people there said you weren't here!" Ai Liang asked.
"Hey, it's hard to say it all, it's hard to say it all!" Gu Lu sighed softly.
Ai Liang did not pursue this question closely, "Then why are you here today?"
Gu Lu pointed in a direction, "Oh, I'm going to do something at the Physical Materials Laboratory."
"Are you anxious?"
"Uh... I'm not really in a hurry."
"If you're not in a hurry, just go to my quantum information laboratory and meet the teacher with me."
Ai Liang didn't give Gu Lu a chance to refuse, and directly took Gu Lu's hand and headed to the quantum information laboratory.
Gu Lu didn't resist much.
Anyway, the Quantum Information Laboratory and the Physical Materials Laboratory are very close to each other.
Gu Lu seemed to have just dropped by.
While walking.
Gu Lu asked Ai Liang about the current situation of the semiconductor quantum chip project team.
"Have you not been transferred to the R&D department of Quantum Computer Co., Ltd. yet?" Gu Lu asked.
to be honest.
Gu Lu was still surprised to see Ai Liang at the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Because according to the above plan.
All personnel of Semiconductor Quantum Chip, including Ai Liang, should have been packaged and merged into Quantum Computer Co., Ltd.
Ai Liang waved his hand and replied with a smile, "We have been transferred there a long time ago, but now the work there has gradually got on track, and it will be fine without me watching, so I am working at Quantum Computer Co., Ltd. and
The Quantum Information Laboratory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences runs on both ends."
Gu Lu nodded to express his understanding.
Then, Gu Lu asked another question.
Gu Lu: “What is the current status of the miniaturization process of quantum computers?”
Ai Liang rubbed his chin, "We are proceeding in an orderly manner. We are using the quantum measurement and control all-in-one machine you proposed before as a blueprint and are constantly upgrading and transforming it."
"But it is estimated that there is not much hope in reducing its size to the size of a normal home computer while keeping its various performance parameters unchanged."
"The civilian use of quantum computers still has a long way to go."
What Ai Liang said was within Gu Lu's expectation.
Even in a sense.
Realizing the civilian use of quantum computers may be more difficult than developing a quantum computer in the first place.
But there's no need to rush.
Quantum computers are an inevitable trend in the development of the times.
The era of quantum computers will definitely come.
The difference…
It's just a matter of time.
"Oh, by the way, Gu Lu forgot to mention it." While walking, Ai Liang suddenly thought of something, turned to Gu Lu and said, "The revenue of our Quantum Computer Co., Ltd. last year has been released, Gu Lu, you
Guess how much we made?”
Unlike many emerging industry companies.
Huaguo Quantum Computer went through the initial stage of losses and has been profitable since the establishment of the company.
And he makes a lot of money.
One unit sells for two million dollars.
The cost is only about one million US dollars.
That's enough to double the profit.
And at such a high price, commercial quantum computers are still in short supply.
after all.
Currently, there are only two companies in the world that can manufacture high-standard commercial quantum computers.
One is the American company IBM.
The other one is China’s Quantum Computer Co., Ltd.
IBM's commercial quantum computer in the United States uses superconducting quantum chip technology.
This technology makes the entire quantum computer very expensive, and the various manufacturing processes are also quite complex.
With overtime work, we can barely produce one unit in a day.
But the market for commercial quantum computers is huge.
Not only some banking and financial companies, but also many large gaming companies have an urgent need for this kind of quantum computer.
For many game companies, a quantum computer is comparable to dozens or hundreds of servers. It not only saves money, but also improves user experience. Why not do it.
Furthermore.
In many people's predictions, quantum computers are one of the cornerstones of virtual reality games.
This will make many game companies tempted.
In addition to these financial companies and gaming companies, there are also some large laboratories and individual sellers who are not short of money and have a strong desire to buy quantum computers.
The productivity of IBM in the United States is too low and there is no way to fill such a large market.
But China’s quantum computer company is different.
China’s quantum computer is based on semiconductor quantum chip technology.
This kind of semiconductor quantum chip is not very difficult to produce.
therefore.
As long as the employees are in place.
Ten quantum computers can be built in a day.
…………
"How much is it?" Gu Lu was quite grateful and interested in the quantum computer company's revenue last year.
Ai Liang raised five fingers and said, "Fifty billion yuan!"
"Last year, the total turnover of our Huaguo Quantum Computer Co., Ltd. was RMB 50 billion. Excluding the cost of RMB 20 billion, the total profit was... RMB 30 billion!"
Even though Gu Lu had already expected it in his heart, when he heard the figure of 30 billion from Ai Liang, he couldn't help but subconsciously gasped.
Thirty billion.
That’s 30 billion!
Be clear.
Last year was only the first year of the establishment of Huaguo Quantum Computer Company.
In the first year, net profit reached 30 billion.
No wonder.
No wonder China’s quantum computer was valued at 100 billion at the original share subscription meeting.
Looking at it now.
This valuation is still undervalued.
A net profit of 30 billion yuan is enough to rank among the top 50 state-owned enterprises in China.
And wait until quantum computers are completely commercialized.
The top five are basically stable.
"Gu Lu, congratulations. With a net profit of 3 billion yuan, the dividends you can get are a full 30 million yuan." Ai Liang said.
By the way, dividends!
After being reminded by Ai Liang, Gu Lu suddenly realized this.
Gu Lu still holds 0.1% of the original shares of Huaguo Quantum Computer Co., Ltd.!
Although the number one thousandth sounds small.
But its value is simply not too high.
As far as dividends are concerned.
Gu Lu didn't do anything last year.
You can get 30 million share dividends for free.
Gu Lu estimated.
