Rebirth 2004: I can make money by writing.

Shenzhen in March is full of spring.

3 month 20 day,

The weather today is warm and pleasant, and there is a short spring rain in the morning, which brings a touch of coolness and moisture to this busy city. The air in Hao Mansion is fresh.

It's two o'clock in the afternoon and the sun is shining brightly.

In the makeshift delivery room, Han Qingying lay on the delivery bed, with beads of sweat oozing from her forehead.

She clenched her hands, took deep breaths, and tried to stay calm.

Doctors and nurses were busy preparing and offering encouragement from time to time.

With waves of violent contractions, Han Qingying gritted her teeth and pushed with all her strength.

A few minutes later,

Accompanied by a loud cry, the staff in the room breathed a sigh of relief.

But only temporarily.

Seven or eight minutes later, another baby was born.

After a while, the door of the delivery room finally opened slowly, and a female doctor in a white coat walked out briskly.

She had a warm and relieved smile on her face, and her eyes swept over the family members who were anxiously waiting outside the house, finally falling on Hao Qiang.

"Congratulations, Mr. Hao," her voice was soft and joyful. "Mrs. Hao has successfully given birth to twins, a boy and a girl! Both mother and child are safe."

The doctor's words were like a spring breeze, instantly dispelling the heavy atmosphere in the waiting room.

The anxiety on everyone's face disappeared, replaced by a sense of relief and joy.

Hao Qiang felt like a huge weight had finally fallen from his heart. He said with a touch of emotion, "Thank you very much to the medical team for their hard work!"

The female doctor smiled and waved her hand: "This is our duty. You are welcome, Mr. Hao."

She briefly explained some precautions and then turned back to the delivery room to continue her work.

"Brother Qiang, where are the twins?! Sister Qingying is amazing!" Qiu Yuqing said excitedly, her eyes sparkling. "Yuxuan and Zimo finally have friends. They will definitely be very happy."

Liu Fengqing smiled so much that the wrinkles on her face smoothed out. "Qingying is really lucky to have inherited Yuqing's good fortune."

When Han Qingying's grandmother heard the good news, she was so excited that she burst into tears.

For this vicissitudes of life old woman, her granddaughter is the last concern in her life.

Now with two more great-grandchildren, she feels her life is finally complete.

After waiting for a while, the door of the delivery room was pushed open again.

A young nurse came out and announced to everyone with a smile: "Everyone, you can go in and see the wife and the newborn."

Hao Qiang nodded slightly and led the way into the delivery room.

What caught my eye was Han Qingying's tired yet happy face. She leaned against the bed, her face slightly pale, her lips a little purple, but her eyes sparkled with joy. In the stroller beside her bed, two little lives nestled quietly together, their pink little faces making one want to kiss them.

Hao Qiang walked quickly to Han Qingying, held her hand tightly, and said distressedly: "Qingying, you have suffered."

Han Qingying shook her head gently, a happy smile blooming on her face: "It's okay, as long as the children are healthy, I will be satisfied."

Other family members also gathered around to express their concern and blessings to Han Qingying, and the room was filled with a warm and joyful atmosphere.

Of this pair of twins, the boy was born first, and the girl came into the world ten minutes later.

Both babies are healthy and weigh around 3 kilograms.

Hao Qiang and Han Qingying had already thought of a name for their child.

They hope that this pair of little lives can inherit the family's fine traditions while also having their own unique personalities.

The boy is named Haotian, which means his mind is as broad as the sky;

The girl's name is Hao Yufei, which means graceful as rain and beautiful as flowers.

Looking at the two little angels sleeping soundly, Hao Qiang and Han Qingying smiled at each other, their hearts full of longing and expectation for their children's future.

Hao Qiang and Han Qingying chatted for a while before going to see the two babies.

Then, he received a prompt from the golden finger, just like when Qiu Yuqing gave birth to the child. He could check the baby's four-dimensional attributes and allocate the baby's free attribute points.

First Generation: Hao Tian (born March 20, 2012)

[Memory: 20 (Potential)]

【Thinking Power: 24 (Potential)】

[Appearance: 22 (Potential)]

【Constitution: 15 (Potential)】

[Free attribute points: 10]

……

First Generation: Hao Yufei (born March 20, 2012)

[Memory: 19 (Potential)]

【Thinking Power: 21 (Potential)】

[Appearance: 24 (Potential)]

【Constitution: 13 (Potential)】

[Free attribute points: 10]

……

Compared with Qiu Yuqing's children, Han Qingying's children are better, mainly due to the influence of Hao Qiang himself.

Hao Tian's thinking ability has reached 24, reaching the level of a human monster, and his other attributes are also quite good.

The child Hao Yufei inherited Han Qingying's appearance.

Oh, I don’t know which ugly boy I will marry when I grow up.

Now, Hao Qiang has no plans to add free attribute points to the baby. It depends on which direction the child wants to develop in when he grows up.

Judging from their potential, his four children can all inherit his position as chairman.

Of course, it’s hard to say how the company will develop in the future. Maybe no one wants to inherit the company.

After visiting Han Qingying and looking at the children, the family stayed for a while and then left. Han Qingying was still quite tired at this time.

Hao Qiang stayed with Han Qingying and let her have a good rest. Then he gave red envelopes to the doctors, nurses, and nannies and bodyguards in the Hao Mansion to celebrate the addition of two new sons to the family.

The last time Qiu Yuqing gave birth naturally, Hao Qiang rewarded each member of the childcare team with 66.6666 million yuan, and each nanny and bodyguard with 16.8 yuan, which made them very happy.

This time, it is the same.

These people wish the two ladies would have more children so that they can receive red envelopes every year.

After spending two days at home with Han Qingying and the newborn twins, Hao Qiang had to return to the company to deal with a backlog of matters.

It is worth mentioning that ASML’s lawsuit against Future Technology Group has been settled.

Unexpectedly, ASML ultimately lost this protracted legal battle.

Not only did they have to pay for damages to their reputation, but what further frustrated them was that they still hadn't been able to uncover any substantive information about Future Technology Group through the lawsuit. This outcome was undoubtedly a heavy blow, not only losing money but also causing the company to lose face in the industry.

ASML's CEO Peter and CTO Martin were extremely confused and frustrated by this.

They sat in the spacious conference room, looking out the window at the gloomy Amsterdam sky, lost in thought.

Not only did this lawsuit fail to achieve its intended purpose, it also made the company the object of ridicule by its peers, which was a double blow.

For ASML, which has always occupied a dominant position in the field of semiconductor equipment manufacturing, the inability to understand the details of the newly emerging competitors, especially the other party's R&D direction and technical reserves, means that they will be in a passive and uneasy state for a long time.

This situation is undoubtedly unacceptable for a high-tech giant.

"Hao Qiang is really too shrewd," CEO Peter sighed helplessly as he sat on the leather chair, "If it were any other company in Hua Country, they would have been eager to show off their technological achievements.

But Future Technology Group is like an unfathomable black hole, attracting our attention without revealing any information.”

Chief Technology Officer Martin took over the topic with a frown on his face: "We have invested a lot of money and manpower to try to uncover the mystery of Future Technology Group, but we just can't understand what type of lithography machine they have.

"Ever since they announced they had successfully developed their own lithography machine, I've been uneasy. Their secrecy has been impeccable, truly astonishing."

Martin stood up, walked to the French window, looked at the city skyline in the distance, and continued: "The most disturbing thing is that we don't even know the actual level of their technology.

Perhaps, it is not as simple as it seems.

If this is true, it will be difficult for ASML to survive.”

Peter was silent for a moment, then said firmly: “We must increase investment in research and development, and at the same time pay close attention to every move of Future Technology Group.

At the same time, we will launch the 22nm EUV lithography machine as soon as possible.”

The maximum process node of DUV (deep ultraviolet) lithography machine is 28nm. If you want to develop more advanced processes, you can only use EUV lithography machine.

In the previous life, ASML did not develop the 22nm EUV lithography machine until 2013.

The two looked at each other and saw determination and a little worry in each other's eyes.

They know that the road ahead will be full of challenges, but as a former industry giant, ASML has no choice but to face the challenges head-on.

At the same time, at the Future Technology Group headquarters in Pengcheng, Hao Qiang was reviewing the latest 7nm EBL lithography machine research and development progress report.

At present, there are only some minor issues left, and it is predicted that the prototype will be available by the end of April or early May.

After reviewing the latest R&D report, Hao Qiang left the office in high spirits and came to the supercomputing center laboratory building not far from the headquarters building.

As the elevator door on the third floor slowly opened, a spacious, bright and futuristic space appeared before him.

This supercomputer cabinet complex, which uses 5,000 advanced processors and has a total construction cost of approximately US$15 million, is placed in the hall.

The entire system is housed in rows of cabinets emitting a faint blue light, surrounded by a complex cooling system to ensure that this electronic behemoth operates at the optimal temperature.

After taking a look around, Hao Qiang came to the control console area on the second floor.

The group's Future Intelligent Technology Company uses the supercomputing center quite frequently. At the same time, the company's R&D personnel are also the group most familiar with supercomputing. It is currently managed by the company's general manager Liu Yixiang, and the specific person in charge is Dr. Chen Gechen.

Hao Qiang slowly walked towards the control console. Chen Ge, the person in charge, came up to him and said respectfully and excitedly, "Chairman, we are conducting the final system test. Everything is normal so far, and the performance indicators have even exceeded our expectations."

Hao Qiang nodded and glanced at the display screen in front of him.

Various complex data and charts flashed on the screen, reflecting the operating status of Future No. 1.

"Let's see how it actually performs," ​​said Hao Qiang.

Dr. Zhang understood and immediately directed the team to conduct a series of rigorous tests.

First up was a benchmark test where Future One completed complex calculations in just two or three minutes that would take an ordinary computer several days to complete.

Next was the parallel computing capability test, where thousands of cores ran simultaneously, collaboratively processing massive amounts of data with astonishing efficiency.

Finally, they conducted a stress test that simulated a real-world scenario.

Future One is required to carry out multiple tasks simultaneously, including climate simulation and artificial intelligence training.

Even under such a heavy load, it maintained stable performance without any lag.

Throughout the test, the cooling system emitted a low hum, and the temperature inside the data center remained within the optimal range.

The constantly updated data on the big screen demonstrates Future One's amazing computing power and energy efficiency.

"It's okay. Once our processor is developed, this one can be eliminated." Hao Qiang looked at the test results and finally felt a little satisfied.

Chen Ge smiled awkwardly: "Chairman, your request is too high.

Our Future No. 1 supercomputer already has outstanding performance.

Its peak computing speed reaches 3.5PFLOPS, ranking third in China, second only to Tianhe-2 and Tianhe-1, and tenth in the world.

This achievement is already remarkable.

Chairman, your design is incredibly advanced. Using the same number of chips, achieving a peak performance of 1.5 PFLOPS is quite impressive."

Supercomputer performance can indeed be improved through increased investment, mainly by piling more chips on top of them.

However, this approach also means that energy consumption will increase significantly.

It is not wise to blindly pursue performance improvements for the sake of world rankings. Instead, we should find a balance between performance and energy efficiency.

Hao Qiang smiled and said, "This kind of performance improvement is actually not a particularly great thing. As long as you have money, you can do it.

Of course, there are some techniques involved in the design and system of swarm formations.

Our company is now vigorously developing artificial intelligence, and deep learning alone takes a lot of time.

Even with the help of supercomputers, the R&D cycle is still very long. We need more powerful computing power to speed up the process.”

"That's true. This road is indeed not easy to take, even with a supercomputer." Chen Ge had to admit the fact. He just didn't expect the chairman to be so ambitious. He really admired him.

Hao Qiang continued to advise: "You guys can continue to test it, but don't treat it too much as a treasure.

Of course, once it’s officially put into use, strict confidentiality measures must be implemented for the company’s core data.”

"Understood, Chairman.

Thank you very much for giving us this opportunity to learn and grow." Chen Ge answered seriously.

Hao Qiang patted Chen Ge's shoulder gently to show encouragement, and then continued to observe other test items.

About half an hour later, he left the supercomputing center, leaving the technical team to continue the final debugging work.

After a few days,

On March 30, the supercomputing center was officially put into use.

This news quickly spread within Future Technology Group. All R&D departments were extremely excited to learn that the company had such powerful computing resources and could apply for their use when encountering complex computing problems.

For a private enterprise, investing in and building such a high-performance supercomputing center specifically for research and development is indeed a matter of pride.

This not only demonstrates the company's technical strength, but also reflects the management's emphasis and support for scientific research.

However, surprisingly, the group did not celebrate the event in any way.

Hao Qiang believes that although this technological advancement is important, it is not something worth publicizing.

In his view, this is just an inevitable step in the company's development process and an investment made to better promote R&D work.

Real technological breakthroughs and innovations are the foundation of a company, not superficial glory and honors.

This attitude also subtly influences the entire company's culture, allowing employees to focus more on substantive R&D work rather than pursuing superficial achievements.

However, the news still leaked to the outside world, shocking many people.

There is no requirement to keep this matter confidential within the company.
