"Could it be he wants to …?" Lu Zixin suddenly realized something. Right now, the Red Letter Group was already far ahead. Even if he casually gave the Red Letter Group more votes, the Red Letter Group would still be voted first.
But if Intel and IBM's votes are added together, the results will be different!
Just as Dong Xuebing was deep in thought, he saw Intel's representative voting for IBM! As the world's top computer hardware manufacturer, they had put down their pride as Intel and voted for their competitor, IBM!
Teacher Tian and the rest of the delegates opened their eyes wide. They had never expected these two companies to work together!
Sure enough, after Intel's representative voted for IBM, the rest of the delegates started to vote. All of them voted for IBM!
Soon, IBM's votes reached 35, and Intel did not get any more votes. But Hongxin Group got 30 votes!
All the delegates knew Hongxin Group's standards are the most suitable, but they were affected by other factors.
Lu Zixin, Teacher Tian, and the rest of the delegates saw the results, and their faces turned cold.
On the other hand, Lancelot, Walter, Pleater, and the others were overjoyed and didn't try to hide it at all!
"Very good. After eliminating the 5 delegates who abstained from voting, I am proud to announce that this round of voting for the world's quantum computer standards is from America's IBM International Business Machines Corporation …" Lancelot announced loudly.
"Clap, clap …" Some of the delegates started to clap.
"Wait!" Lu Zixin stood up and interrupted them.
He looked at Lancelot coldly and said. "I feel the results of this round of voting are not acceptable. Some of the delegates had voted with ulterior motives, and this is not fair!"
Lancelot is not surprised. It will be weird if Hongxin Group is convinced. But he is not afraid as the voting results are out, and this is their home ground. All he needs to do is to appease them.
"Mr. Lu, I do not agree with what you said. This round of voting is open to the public, and there are no problems! The voting results were chosen by representatives from all the major computer research institutions around the world. You also participated, so there is no doubt about it. "
Toran Bell also said, "Mr. Lu, I know that you want to choose your own company, but everyone's opinion is different. Please respect our vote and the fairness of the IEEE Association and the American Computer Association!"
"Respect?" Mr. Tian also stood up to speak for the Hongxin Group. He said, "Just now, the Hongxin Group won first place in the vote. You think that the gap between first and second place is too small, so you want to revote."
"We respect your decision, and there are only 5 votes difference between Hongxin and IBM. That's why we request a revote!"
Lancelot shook his head and continued, "This is not the same. The results of each election are not far off. If we keep revoting, then our votes will be meaningless. Also, this time, IBM's standards are approved by the majority, and we don't need to reinvest. "
"The American Computer Society thinks the same. There's no need to reinvest. The result of the vote is IBM! "Walter also supported Lancelot.
Pleater, as the representative of IBM, also stood up and said, "Sorry to disappoint both of you. I also think that Hongxin Group's standards are a good reference, but this is the accepted result, and you can't deny it."
"IBM will continue to improve the standards and technologies. We will strive to bring the most suitable quantum computer standard to the world! Thank you for your support! "
After Pleater finished speaking, many people started to clap!
The Chinese representatives' faces are ugly. This is cheating. They used their advantage in numbers to change the voting results!
If this standard is approved by the international community, then the Chinese companies will be sucked dry by the American companies!
Mr. Tian shouted. "You all have gone against the principle of voting! We are choosing the most suitable quantum computer standard for commercialization, not the country or company! "
"Sir, please sit down." A member of the American Computer Association stepped forward and said.
"Everyone!" At this time, Lu Zixin suddenly shouted. The sound of the translator was so loud that it hurt everyone's eardrums.
"Mr. Lu, what else do you have to say? We can discuss this privately." Lancelot consoled him.
"No need. We are not you all. Discuss privately!" Lu Zixin said sarcastically.
Walter said seriously. "Mr. Lu, this is an international computer technology exchange. Please mind your words!"
"International computer technology exchange? I want to ask. Are you the ones who set the standards, or are the technologies the ones who speak? " Lu Zixin asked loudly. "Everyone can see that our quantum computer is many times more advanced than yours! Why should we give up on the advanced standards and use the outdated standards? "
"Is it because Hongxin Group is not an American company, and that's why we did not get the most votes? Mr. Chairman? "
Lu Zixin's words were extremely sharp. Every sentence was questioning the fairness of the voting results. This made the expressions of the people from the IEEE Association and the American Computer Association very ugly!
Walter scolded. "You are slandering us! The American Computer Society will never side with anyone. This is an absolutely fair voting result! "
Lancelot said, "The IEEE is a stateless international organization. We will never be biased against any company or organization because of their country! Mr. Lu, if you are being unreasonable, please leave the association temporarily! Don't affect our announcement of the standards! "
The representatives from Huaxia looked at Lu Zixin worriedly. Of course, they were against the other party's unfair behavior, but these two associations were international authoritative organizations.
In the field of computing, their standards were recognized by the international community. In comparison, they were too weak in their field of expertise! Now that Lu Zixin was openly questioning and objecting, how would they deal with this situation?
Lu Zixin still stood straight and looked at the representatives from various countries and organizations. He said firmly, "If the purpose of this technology exchange conference is to make technology fall behind? Then what's the point of us gathering here?
"If the IEEE and American Computer Society cannot choose standards based on fairness, then why should we recognize your authority and standards?
"So, today, I solemnly announce that Hongxin Group will not recognize the IEEE Association and American Computer Society's standards for quantum computers, and will withdraw from this International Supercomputing Conference!
"We will use our standards to create commercial quantum computers! We welcome everyone to use Hongxin Group's standards!
