Chapter 353 Is Your Face Swollen?
"?"
"what is this?"
Everyone asked in surprise.
Lin Chen smiled and said, "This is the gene coding database that comes with the gene chip. I've already finished it."
"what?"
Upon hearing this, everyone was so shocked they almost jumped up.
Dean Hou's mouth dropped open: "Lin Chen, you...you're not kidding me, are you?"
"Of course not. In fact, I have been working on writing a gene coding database ever since the gene chip design was completed."
After all, without this, gene chips are simply unusable.
Why would I take out something that's unusable?
Lin Chen explained.
Dean Hou looked both amused and exasperated: "Huh? Why didn't you tell us sooner?"
"That's Old Wang's fault. If he hadn't urged me to submit the gene chip report first, I actually planned to submit it together after the database was ready."
"Old Wang? He...he..."
Although Dean Hou was the dean, he dared not speak ill of Wang Lao, an old academician in the Longke Academy, so he had to swallow his complaints.
"Enough said, you guys, hurry up and take this database to test it!"
"Yeah!"
Upon hearing this, several academicians gathered around Lin Chen, wanting to take the USB drive containing the database into their hands.
There's only one USB drive, but there are more than a dozen hands reaching out.
Enraged, Dean Hou shouted, "Stop fighting over it! If you break the USB drive, you'll be traitors to the country and the nation!!"
Finally, Dean Hou took the USB drive himself and led a group of people straight to the laboratory.
Soon after, surrounded by a host of industry leaders, the gene coding database was installed into the already constructed biological computer.
With a "beep", the power was turned on.
Just one second later, the operating system interface appeared on the screen.
Today's biological computers are still in their very early stages.
Simply by replacing the silicon-based chip with a gene chip, and with the help of a gene coding database, it can be directly and perfectly integrated into any existing operating system.
Of course, given time, a dedicated operating system based on gene chips will surely be developed.
But that's still a future matter.
The industrial revolution triggered by replacing silicon-based chips with gene chips alone is already enormous.
They don't need to get fat overnight.
After the computer was turned on, Dean Hou personally operated it and opened one of the programs.
Upon seeing Dean Hou's actions, an academician in the field of computer science exclaimed in surprise:
"Dean, how do you run this?"
Dean Hou turned his head and smiled: "Of course, we want to see what this gene chip is capable of!"
Lin Chen, watching from the side, was puzzled and quietly asked, "What is the Dean running?"
Someone replied, "That's the Linpack benchmark software. You can think of it as a benchmarking software for personal computers, but this one is specifically designed to test supercomputers!"
The Linpack test is primarily performed by solving large-scale systems of linear equations.
The test generates a large coefficient matrix and a right-hand vector, and then uses a specific algorithm to solve the system of linear equations. The calculation involves a large number of floating-point operations, including addition, multiplication, and division.
The final test results will be expressed in PFLOPS.
A supercomputer with a Linpack test result of 10 PFLOPS means that it can perform 10 quadrillion floating-point operations per second.
A higher PFLOPS value indicates a computer's stronger floating-point operation capability and better performance.
After Dean Hou opened the testing program, everyone immediately heard the roar of the heat sink coming from the biological computer case in front of them.
Everyone's expression suddenly tightened, fearing that the computer might malfunction.
Fortunately, everything was normal for the next ten minutes or so.
Then suddenly a number popped up on the screen: 211 PFLOPS!
"My God! 211 power-ups?"
"This score is already high enough to get into the top ten of the supercomputer rankings!"
"Incredible! A biological computer composed of just a gene chip possesses performance comparable to a supercomputer?!"
"The era of biocomputers has arrived!"
"We made it!"
At this moment, the scene erupted in jubilation!
So the next day, in the latest episode of CCTV's evening news, China officially announced the beginning of the era of biological computers!
"According to our station, Lin Chen, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and a renowned scientist, has recently compiled a gene coding database to complement gene chips!"
"Based on this technology, Longke Institute has developed the first practical biological computer. After running for ten hours, all its performance indicators have met the design specifications!"
"This invention signifies that China's computer industry is about to enter the era of bio-computers!"
"Relevant national departments have planned to establish Loongson Technology Co., Ltd., which will provide civilian gene chips to the whole country and the world in the future!"
"The company is currently making active preparations. The first phase of its three chip factories has begun construction and is expected to officially start production in three months. At that time, it will provide the market with 1200 million gene chips annually!"
As this news was broadcast, a tremendous shock began to spread rapidly throughout the world.
In China, countless netizens flocked to the Weibo accounts of those public intellectuals and experts who had previously questioned Lin Chen, offering their blatant mockery.
"I just want to know how the blogger is feeling now? Is their face still swollen?"
"Who gave you the courage to question Lin Shen? Fish Leong?"
"I sympathize with the blogger, but don't be sad. You're not the first person to be proven wrong by Lin Shen, and you probably won't be the last!"
……
Domestic online public opinion instantly reversed, and public intellectuals who received the news, if they had any shame, hurriedly deleted the posts.
If you're shameless, just play dead and pretend nothing happened.
Abroad, the news caused an even greater shock.
In academia, foreigners simply couldn't understand how Lin Chen could have created a gene coding database so quickly.
Even the DNA of the simplest bacteria cannot be analyzed in just one or two years!
The White House insisted that it would take Lin Chen at least several years to create a gene coding database, only after repeated assurances from experts.
But what happened? Only a month after the gene chip was made public, a gene coding database was created.
How exactly did Lin Chen manage to do that?
Is he really human?
At that moment, scientists in the field of genetics around the world felt as if they had become clowns.
They are only fit to kneel at Lin Chen's feet and bow down to this emperor of the genetic field.
Lin Chen's talent has completely exceeded their comprehension.
In the business world, the impact is even greater.
The news from China was broadcast in the evening, when the A-share market was already closed, so the impact on the stock market had not yet been apparent.
But the US is currently in the middle of a trading session.
So when the news reached the other side of the ocean, the Nasdaq index fell across the board.
It even triggered a circuit breaker at one point.
Several major chip giants have experienced multiple trading halts due to continuous declines in their stock prices.
Even so, it still couldn't stop their stock prices from continuing to fall by half.
An apocalyptic shock is sweeping across all chip companies in the United States!
