Upon hearing this, Chen Ming hurried over, stood beside Dean Jin, and looked at her in confusion.
"Dean, what do you want me to do?"
Dean Jin did not directly answer Chen Ming's question, but said to Peng Xu: "I plan to let him speak on behalf of our research team at the press conference later."
After listening to this, Peng Xu was stunned for a moment, looked at Chen Ming in surprise, and then saw the epaulettes on Chen Ming's shoulders, and couldn't help but frowned.
This is too young. Is Dean Jin being a little dramatic
For something like a press conference, which is open to the whole world, shouldn't we have someone mature and steady to handle it
Dean Jin seemed to see Peng Xu's confusion and said with a smile: "Director Peng, let me introduce you to this person, Chen Ming, who is a researcher of Tianhe-1 under my command. He is 18 years old and is a doctoral student."
After hearing this, Peng Xu was stunned for a moment.
He looked at Chen Ming in surprise again.
Not only were people surprised that he became a doctor at the age of 18, but they were even more surprised that he was able to join the Tianhe-1 project team at the age of 18.
Their National Supercomputing Center provided the hardware foundation for the research of Tianhe-1 and can be said to be a major shareholder of Tianhe-1.
Naturally, we know how difficult the research and development of Tianhe-1 is. Even if you have a PhD, unless you are one of the top PhDs, you may not have a chance to get in.
The fact that Chen Ming was able to participate in it at the young age of 18 years old shows that his ability is extraordinary, and he was also recognized by Dean Jin.
After taking a closer look at Chen Ming, he couldn't help but marvel at it and said with a smile: "He's already studying for a doctorate at the age of 18. What a genius boy."
Such geniuses are rare nowadays. If you want to find one, you can basically only go to the junior class of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. I didn’t expect that Dean Jin actually has one under his command.
Dean Jin narrowed his eyes and asked Peng Xu with a half-smile, "The reason why the computing power of Tianhe-1 has achieved such a huge breakthrough in such a short period of time, do you know why?"
Peng Xu was stunned for a moment. He had indeed been curious about this for a long time.
At that time, Tianhe-1 was almost completed and would even be announced in half a month, and he was already preparing for the press conference.
As a result, Dean Jin called and said that Tianhe-1 had made a major breakthrough, so he asked him to cancel the release and report it to his superiors to apply for an extension of the release.
Two months later, Dean Jin called again.
He said that the peak computing capacity of Tianhe-1 had exceeded one trillion times, so he was asked to withdraw the previous reporting record, send someone to re-verify it, and report the new record.
He was stunned at the time. Two months ago, he told me that the peak value was only more than 400 trillion times. Only two months have passed, and you told me that it has exceeded 10 trillion times? !
What happened in the past two months? Did you open up the Ren and Du meridians for Tianhe-1? !
He didn't believe it at first, until his own verification personnel came back to report that the data was indeed true. He could no longer sit still.
In addition to joy, his face was also full of shock.
He never had the chance to ask Jin Wenling what had happened in the past two months.
And now Jin Wenling took the initiative to speak and pointed the finger at Chen Ming, which made Peng Xu stunned.
He subconsciously glanced at Chen Ming, who was standing aside with a calm face, and had some incredible thoughts in his mind.
Jin Wenling smiled and said, "The reason why Tianhe-1's computing power has achieved a huge breakthrough in a short period of time is all thanks to Comrade Chen Ming."
"His computer skills are beyond even my reach. It was he who led everyone to upgrade and optimize Tianhe-1, which led to an exponential increase in the computing power of Tianhe-1."
After hearing this, Peng Xu was even more shocked as the incredible idea in his mind was confirmed. He quickly stood up and shook hands with Chen Ming, saying with a smile on his face, "As expected, the National University of Defense Technology is known as the Tsinghua University in the military. There are so many talented people here."
