Chapter 359 I want the priority to use Dawn 2000

In the end, Chang Haonan's title was decided.

As for the corresponding hardware support, it is secondary.

The entire building of the supercomputing center was originally managed by Chang Haonan. There's still a lot of empty space inside now

Numerical Simulation and Data Analysis Laboratory, as you can tell from the name, almost no experiments are required.

It happens to be close to the supercomputer, which is convenient.

In the next few days, Chang Haonan naturally traveled between the Academy of Sciences and Beijing Airlines to prepare for the laboratory that was about to be established.

Although the desk work has been handed over to other people, he still has to do it himself for many things that appear or require on-the-spot decisions.

Coincidentally, the Academy of Sciences that has major cooperation with Chang Haonan happens to be the Institute of Computing Technology, which he has been in contact with before.

When I came here before, Chang Haonan was just one of the countless people who applied to use supercomputing for projects. It was already a big deal for the 601 Institute to send a senior researcher to contact him. Under normal circumstances, he could just send anyone. The staff is about as good as it gets.

But this time, Chang Haonan has been upgraded to become a partner of a major project team and the future head of a hospital-affiliated company.

So the reception specifications are naturally completely different.

An Academy of Sciences car took Chang Haonan directly from school to the Institute of Computing Technology.

The receptionist was also promoted to the deputy director of the institute, Li Jie.

I was just elected as an academician the year before last.

Responsible for the research and development of the Dawn series of supercomputers.

The supercomputer Chang Haonan used when he first came here was the one he was responsible for developing.

"Hello, Academician Li."

"Chang Gong, you are young and promising. I have heard of your name a long time ago and have seen it on TV. This time I finally have the opportunity to meet you in person."

Li Jie stepped forward and shook hands warmly with Chang Haonan.

"I remember that a regular worker probably came to our office once last year, but it was a pity that I was on a business trip and couldn't catch up."

Although the two met for the first time, Li Jie only used two sentences to bring them closer.

Especially when he actually dug up what happened last year.

"Academician Li is flattered to know about the first time I came here."

Chang Haonan also greeted the other party politely.

And he was indeed surprised.

Although everyone who uses a supercomputer will leave a record, under normal circumstances no one will look through it one by one.

"Well, the paper you co-published last year with Researcher Xu from our institute must have been carefully read by at least colleagues in the domestic circle. I later asked Researcher Xu specifically about your situation."

This statement is quite reliable, and it seems that Li Jie is not just improvising.

But before Chang Haonan could speak again, the latter changed the subject:

"Speaking of which, I heard from people in the Organization Department that shortly after the Chinese New Year this year, our researcher Xu was abducted by you, Chang Gong, and he hasn't come back yet?"

"Cough-cough-"

Chang Haonan almost couldn't breathe.

"Academician Li, you can't say that. It was the Institute of Electronics 14 in Jinling that invited us together. It's just that Researcher Xu still has some finishing work to do at Yan Liang, but I guess it will be done soon. .”

"Hey, Chang Gong, you don't know something."

Li Jie waved his hand and said while taking Chang Haonan upstairs:

"Our Researcher Xu is indeed very capable, but her character is really difficult to deal with. Almost all the researchers who have worked with her have suffered psychological trauma because they cannot keep up with her ideas. The graduate students under her She is so mentally broken that I am crying to drop out of school. You are already quite amazing for being able to cooperate with her stably."

As he spoke, he gave Chang Haonan a thumbs up.

Soon, the two people who were chatting along came to Li Jie's office.

"As for the overall situation of the project team, we have received documents from the Science and Technology Commission and the Economic and Trade Commission."

Li Jie poured a glass of water for Chang Haonan and himself, and then sat on the sofa opposite the latter:

"Whether it is cooperation with universities or enterprises, we have very rich experience, so if you have any requirements, you can feel free to put them forward to us. As for the joint listing of laboratories, we will do our best to cooperate. .”

Naturally, the joint laboratory will not just hang two signs in one place, but will set up a laboratory on both sides of Beijing Hang University and the Institute of Computing Technology.

"The time for this project is relatively tight, so I won't be too close to you, Academician Li. What I need now are equipment and people."

Chang Haonan put down the paper cup in his hand:

"I understand you should be developing the latest Dawn 2000 supercomputer now?"

"Yes."

Dawn 2000 is a public project, there is nothing to hide:

"However, we have just solved some technical problems left over from the Dawn 1000A in the Liaohe Oilfield. If you really want to use the Dawn 2000, Chang Gong, I'm afraid you will have to wait a few years."

"Time doesn't matter, I can wait."

Chang Haonan replied without hesitation:

"Since you, Academician Li, have read the document sent above, you should know that my current project team is a frontline for the company that will be established next year. The 300 million yuan of funding is only the expense for this half year. I want to be able to do it by the end of the year." It was actually a bit difficult to spend all the money before.”

Hearing the figure of 300 million in half a year, even Li Jie's eyes widened slightly, and the hand holding the water glass shook.

You know, the annual research funding for the entire Sugon computer development project he is responsible for is only 2000 million.

That's a hardware project.

Software projects are relatively less aggressive in terms of spending money.

What's more, this is still a project team in the initial stage.

It can indeed be said that he is extremely rich.

"So you want to..."

"I want to invest in the Sugon Group in the name of the project team, and of course in the name of the company in writing, on the condition that I get the priority to use the Sugon 2000 computer after it is completed."

"In addition, I hope that some capable people from your firm can serve in key positions in the project team and future enterprises."

In fact, this is exactly the purpose of Chang Haonan's trip.

Li Jie just said that they have rich experience in cooperating with enterprises. This is by no means a lie.

Because General Manager Liu, who dreams of computers, is now the nominal director of this computing technology research institute.

Although he is not responsible for the actual work and does not care about money or people, at least his name is still there.

Of course, it shouldn't last long.

In the original timeline, the feud between the Institute of Computing and Dream Company continued until the turn of the century.

The process was extremely complicated. In short, the final result was that the Institute of Computing Technology lost the dream company as a platform for incubation results. Many projects including the Sugon Computer Project that Li Jie was responsible for were affected, and Academician Ni Nanguang also left completely. The Dream Group.

Chang Haonan's company, as an enterprise affiliated with the Academy of Sciences, cannot directly intervene, but it can still be done to reduce some losses and provide another platform for the results of the Institute of Computing to be implemented.

Faced with these two requirements, Li Jie thought for a moment:

"It's definitely no problem, man. As long as you have this desire and you can afford the salary, I'll give you whatever you want."

"But is this an investment..."

In addition to being the deputy director who is actually responsible for presiding over the work of the computing institute, Li Jie is also the president and chairman of Shuguang Group. He naturally has to consider a risk issue:

"I don't object in principle, but I'm afraid we have to wait until your company is formally established, or at least have an official seal, to discuss how to invest and how to grant the priority right of use."

"no problem."

Chang Haonan nodded.

At this time in 1997, probably no one would have imagined what would happen in the next few years. It is normal for Li Jie to show hesitation.

Moreover, Chang Haonan was not prepared to completely convince the other party in one go.

As long as the cooperative relationship between the two parties is reached, he will have a reason to take action at critical moments.

As for how many resources can be saved by then, it depends on the actual situation.

But at the very least, it can maintain the “technical industry and trade” path in China’s IT field from being completely cut off.
