Monster Industries' official forum.
A post titled [Gathering all the clues, Monster Industries will soon make a big move that will shock the outside world.] In less than twenty-four hours, the post had garnered more than nine million hits and more than two hundred thousand replies.
Moreover, the post's arguments and pictures were reposted by many online media outlets.
The user who posted the post was a user who had been active for three years. This user's ID was [Bodyguard Dai Jin]. He described himself as an experienced IT programmer. His company was on the same street as the Monster Industries building.
In addition to being close to his office, Bodyguard Dai Jin was also a super loyal fan of Monster Industries.
In fact, most IT programmers were loyal fans of Monster Industries. Even if they weren't loyal fans, they would still have a mechanical engineered chair under them.
The mechanical engineered chair was an early product of Monster Industries. At that time, Monster Industries was still called Monster Heavy Industries. It hadn't developed into the trust level technology oligopoly it is today.
But this didn't stop the mechanical engineered chair from becoming the "soul mate" of all those who needed to work for a long time.
Every programmer in the IT industry had one. It was even more popular than plaid shirts.
If you didn't.
It only proved that you didn't have any respect for this industry. A programmer who didn't have any respect for this industry would never succeed.
Bodyguard Dai Jin was worthy of being called an experienced programmer. He had already shown off his four different colored mechanical engineered chairs on the official forum. One of them was even a custom-made one that was worth over 80,000.
Of course, this wasn't the main point.
The main point was that three days ago, Bodyguard Dai Jin had discovered that something was wrong with the Monster Industries building on the same street.
This anomaly was mainly reflected in the building and the employees inside.
The Monster Industries building had a total of 4000 employees. As for the employees scattered all over the country, there were so many that the outside world couldn't calculate them.
But since three days ago, the Monster Industries building had become strange.
Bodyguard Dai Jin looked at six pictures to verify his theory.
The Monster Industries building was a multi-sided, diamond-shaped sci-fi building. Near the top, there was a transparent floating swimming pool that looked like a crystal halo that surrounded the building.
During the day, the towering transparent swimming pool reflected a colorful and dreamy luster under the sunlight.
At night, the spotlights at the top shone on the diamond-shaped glass outer wall of the building. The transparent swimming pool was like a rainbow wreath that emitted a dazzling brilliance in the dark. It hung high in the sky in a gorgeous and holy manner, making people unable to help but look at it.
Many citizens of Zhongyun City liked to go to the Monster Industries building at night to take videos of the scenery, and Bodyguard Jin was one of the best.
His magic crystal phone had taken no less than a hundred photos of the Monster Industries Building. There were photos of the day, night, rain, snow, and fog.
Different weather and different seasons, but each one was filled with the same technological and industrial beauty.
Jin Shiwei chose six photos of the building taken at night to post. The first three photos were marked with the time of the shooting.
They were at ten o 'clock at night half a month ago, one o' clock in the morning ten days ago, and three o 'clock in the morning six days ago.
From the photo, it could be seen that the Monster Industries building was at three points in time. Within the polygonal glass walls, there were offices of various sizes that were lit with soft lights.
The number of offices decreased from hundreds at ten o 'clock at night to fifty at one o' clock in the morning and twenty at three o 'clock in the morning.
But in the last three photos, almost all of them were brightly lit.
Three days ago at one o 'clock in the morning, two days ago at two o' clock in the morning, and four o 'clock in the morning yesterday, the entire Monster Industries building seemed to have become a torchlight curtain.
Of course, this was very abnormal.
No matter how big the Monster Industries was, they wouldn't waste expensive electricity for no reason. At night, when there was no one in the office, the lights would automatically turn off.
The reason why the building became a torchlight curtain could only be that almost all the departments in the building were working overtime throughout the night.
It was impossible for all the employees to work overtime, but there must be a part of the employees in each department who stayed to work overtime.
Even if the senior programmer Jin Shiwei was busy with the project these days and stayed up until two or three o 'clock in the morning every day, there were still many employees in the Monster Industries building who got off work later than him.
This could also be confirmed by the shop where he often bought coffee. He told the shop assistant he was familiar with that the amount of coffee delivered to the Monster Industries in the past few days was more than the amount of coffee delivered in a month.
If it was only based on the external observation and the photos of the building at night, the post certainly wouldn't be so popular.
…
The argument that had the final effect was the problem with the project that Jin Shiwei was working on recently.
Jin Shiwei was a senior programmer. His company was recently working on a very important intelligent warehouse logistics software development project.
And he was one of the main drivers of this project.
Originally, this software project was going smoothly. They had already completed the system design and program design and entered the final testing and adjustment work.
As soon as the testing and adjustment work was completed, he would receive a large bonus and half a month of paid vacation.
This development project was a big project with more than two hundred people participating.
In order to complete the project faster, they specially applied for the National Supercomputing Center in Pengcheng City to test the software project.
Pengcheng City Supercomputing Center's "Dawn" supercomputer had 3,800 computing nodes and 70,000 parallel processors. Its computing power exceeded quadrillion per second.
At the beginning of the architecture, it was specially optimized for cloud computing power, which was very suitable for their project.
Jin Shiwei's software company originally rented the supercomputer today. Three days ago, they also received a local administrator account assigned to them by the Supercomputing Center.
With a local administrator account, they could upload the test program and software and prepare for the test.
But just yesterday, their test project failed.
The administrator account was canceled and the deposit was returned.
The Supercomputing Center's reply was that there was a sudden major calculation project and the computing power of the Supercomputing Center was fully occupied.
？？
Jin Shiwei's project team was stunned. They had rented the computing power of the Pengcheng City Supercomputing Center more than once or twice.
They had been in the industry for so many years and dealt with big and small supercomputers more than they dealt with girls.
This was the first time that they knew that a calculation project could be suddenly encountered.
Which company or research institute's software project didn't need to be a few years in advance, or at least a year and a half in advance?
From feasibility analysis, to requirement analysis, to project approval, to system analysis, and then to program design and system maintenance.
Which one of these projects didn't have a gradual cycle of brick by brick?
Suddenly encountered a major calculation project?
This project didn't just pop out of a rock and be tested.
A super project that needed to squeeze the computing power of the entire Supercomputing Center, could it really be treated like a game?
Forget it, forget it. Seeing that the Supercomputing Center gave a half price compensation for the next test, Jin Shiwei's project team didn't care. Pengcheng City wasn't the only supercomputing center.
The famous Tianhe 2A, Shenwei Taihu, Shenwei Blu-ray, and so on were all big brothers on the global supercomputing rankings. Which one of them wasn't better than Pengcheng City?
？？？
Tianhe 2A suddenly encountered a major calculation project, Shenwei Taihu suddenly encountered a major calculation project, Shenwei Blu-ray suddenly encountered a major calculation project …
Jin Shiwei's project team consulted all the remaining seven supercomputing centers in one breath. All seven centers suddenly encountered a major calculation project at the same time.
After inquiring with colleagues, they found out that all the colleagues who planned to rent a supercomputer during this period of time had their tasks canceled. Moreover, the major calculation project took up to half a month.
They were shocked and broke out in cold sweat. Where did this beast come from?
All the remaining computing power of the national supercomputers were rented for more than half a month. Even if it was to test a girl's personality, they didn't think it would take that much computing power.
Looking at the test project that they claimed to be a major project, they only rented 1% of the computing power for half an hour …
They were shocked, they were puzzled, and they were curious.
After inquiring, they found that all the clues pointed to the same company.
They were right. This company was particularly beastly.
– Monster Industries.
They couldn't afford to offend them. They should just rent a small commercial supercomputer or a foreign supercomputer.
…
There was a picture of the Monster Industries building, a picture of the supercomputer rental certificate issued by Jin Shiwei, a screenshot of colleagues, and a faint rumor from the smart program industry.
When Jin Shiwei summarized all the information in the post and attached his own analysis, it might be related to the smart program.
When the content of the post was republished by major online media, it was re-created by major bloggers.
Of course, this post went viral.
The number of views exploded, and so did the comments.
[It's reasonable. Is Monster Industries going to develop Skynet?]
[No wonder ~ No wonder ~ My cousin works at Monster Industries' city station. Their station has been holding virtual meetings every day. They're so busy that they don't even have time for blind dates. He also has to keep the contents of the meetings a secret.]
[OP don't scare people. Monster Industries has its own supercomputer cluster. The computing power seems to be equal to a supercomputer center. Why would they need to rent one?
There must be a breakthrough in a major national project, so it's urgent to perform the calculation task.]
[I'll hide it first. I can't say too much. Most people won't understand.
I'm the DBA of a software development project with Monster Industries. Due to business confidentiality regulations, I can only reveal a few things.
First of all, OP's judgment is correct. Our partner Monster Industries does have a major software project. Our company is responsible for the construction of the project's database.
But this project has nothing to do with smart programs. It's a super project in the virtual world.
The project's testing will be completed in half a month. It's estimated that the virtual world will be updated next month. At that time, everyone will discover that there's an additional Earth in the virtual world, a complete Earth.
The task of the supercomputer is to model and render all the open source satellite electronic photos into 3D. When the time comes, everyone will be able to find their street and neighborhood in the virtual world.
Perhaps everyone doesn't understand the significance of this project. I can only say that the things involved will never be understood in your lifetime.]
[Upstairs, are you serious? Moving the virtual Earth into the virtual world? If I go to the virtual city where I am, won't I be completely synchronized with reality?]
[I'm in Shenzhen City in reality. I'm also in Shenzhen City when I enter the virtual world. I work at Shenzhen City's Jiayou International Trading Company.
Doesn't that mean that there's also a Jiayou International Trading Company in the virtual Earth?
If my colleagues are like me and come to the virtual Jiayou International Trading Company, then … then we can still distinguish between virtual and reality.]
[Brothers, don't scare me. I'm starting to wonder if I'm real or virtual …]
[It's real. I'm from Zhongyun. I heard that after the virtual world is updated, it will be connected to the big data systems of several major Internet companies. At that time, our detailed information and occupations will be synchronized with the virtual Earth.]
[Everyone, if you can sell your house or car, sell it as soon as possible. After the virtual world is updated, if you want to find a girlfriend, you'll have to see if you have a house or a car in the virtual world.]
The next day.
The post had more than 30 million hits and more than a million comments.
Moreover, nine out of ten new posts on the official forum were related to the virtual world.
Some analyzed it as something similar to Skynet. Some analyzed it as a major change in the virtual world.
Some spread fear and made everyone refuse to log into the virtual world.
There were even people who said that Monster Industries was preparing to launch a nutrition pod. In the future, everyone would be able to drink nutrient solutions directly.
After all, the virtual world had just been launched not long ago. The content inside and the partners who squeezed in were throwing out new things every day, making the virtual world bigger and bigger every day.
Only the virtual world, which seemed to have infinite possibilities, was suitable for the supercomputer center's style.
