This is the first time that Lu Zhou had the bottleneck in the computation strength. 这是陆舟第一次在计算力上遭遇瓶颈。 Previously most difficulties that he bumped into, was in the logical level, even if encountered quite complex estimation problem occasionally, can still extract the result with the aid of the computer quickly. 此前他碰到的大多数难点,都是出在逻辑层面,即便偶尔碰到比较复杂的计算问题,也能借助电脑很快求出结果。 The situation that however now, he encounters actually and past was completely different. 然而现在,他所遇到的情况却和以往完全不同。 In view of mathematical model that the sole issue builds, by cpu also calculates the computer that can pass adds on molpro and so on software, can complete the computation work very much with ease. 针对单一问题建立的数学模型,凭借一台cpu还算过得去的电脑加上molpro之类的软件,就可以很轻松地完成计算工作。 When sole issue was promoted to some kind of issue, computation load that it involves, as will appear in the theoretical model unknown the same place, will grow at Geometry time of scale. 然而当“单一的问题”被推广到“某一类问题”时,它所涉及到的计算量,将随着出现在理论模型中的“未知数”一起,以几何倍的规模增长。 Lu Zhou is trying with the aid of own notebook, has conducted the solution to some issues that in the mathematical model involves, regardless of attempts many times, the final result halts. 陆舟试着借助自己的笔记本,对数学模型中涉及到的部分问题进行过求解,然而无论尝试多少次,最后的结果都是死机。 However what fortunately is, he thinks quickly person who can ask. 不过所幸的是,他很快想到了一个可以拜托的人。 This person is David Xiao. 这个人便是大卫・肖。 Although this big cow, has had casual acquaintance with him on MRS conference...... 虽然这位大牛,和他只是在m会议上有过一面之缘…… We arrived.” “我们到了。” Was awakened by Jericho, Lu Zhou opened the eye, looked to the glass, d.e.shaw research institute of heaving in sight. 被杰里科叫醒,陆舟睁开了眼睛,看向了车窗外面,映入眼帘的正是d.e.shaw研究所。 At this moment, he rectifies conduct the campus situated in Columbia University. 此时此刻,他正身处于哥伦比亚大学的校园。 However what makes Lu Zhou accidental/surprised is, now has been close to the evening. According to his plan, he should come here in the appearance about two or three : 00 pm. 不过让陆舟意外的是,现在已经接近傍晚。原本按照他的计划,他应该在下午两三点左右的样子到达这里的。 How long did I rest?” “我睡了多久?” Four hours...... on the road stopped up the little while car(riage),” some Jericho worries continue saying that professor, although I know that you are engaged in a great research, but the body is all foundations.” “四个小时……路上堵了会儿车,”杰里科有些担心地继续说道,“教授,虽然我知道您在从事一项伟大的研究,但身体是一切的基础。” My is very healthy, after coming to Princeton, even a cold has not met,” rubs the eyes, Lu Zhou pulled out cell phone to send a message to David Xiao, told he himself to arrive. “我身体很好,来普林斯顿之后甚至一场感冒都没有遇到过,”揉了揉眼睛,陆舟掏出手机给大卫・肖发了个短信,告诉他自己到了。 Before coming, he has telephones to make an appointment with him beforehand , indicating oneself must come to here to visit. 在来之前,他有事先打电话和他预约过,表示自己要来这里拜访。 After getting out, Lu Zhou does not have the waiting to be very long in the entrance, then sees that was called anomaly by the Wall Street Investment bank industry man, stretched out the arms to welcome. 下车之后,陆舟在门口没有等待很久,便看见那个被华尔街投行业称为“怪胎”的男人,张开双臂迎了出来。 Welcome, the friend of mine, you came finally!” Met then comes an enthusiasm to hug to him, David Xiao haha is smiling, leading two people to walk toward inside of research institute, I guessed correctly, you will definitely come one this year here.” “欢迎,我的朋友,你终于来了!”一见面便给他来了个热情地拥抱,大卫・肖哈哈笑着,带着两人向研究所的里面走去,“我就猜到,你今年肯定会来一趟这里。” Lu Zhou intent outlet: „Can this also guess correctly?” 陆舟意外道:“这也能猜到吗?” Naturally.” “当然。” Has the scientific basis?” “有科学依据吗?” No! However you can its understanding be the scientific intuition.” “没有!不过你可以将其理解为科学直觉。” The Lu Zhou expression looked at his one eyes strangely. 陆舟表情古怪地看了他一眼。 If this is not cracking a joke, his intuition also is really the accurate fearfulness. 如果这不是开玩笑的话,那他的直觉还真是准的可怕。 Led two people to come to own office, David went to the coffeemaker to make two cups of coffee, was placed in the front of Lu Zhou and Jericho respectively. 带着两人来到了自己的办公室,大卫去咖啡机泡了两杯咖啡,分别摆在了陆舟和杰里科的面前。 Then, he made. the tea to himself, sits down in two people opposite, hopefully looks at Lu Zhou to say the cup 然后,他给自己泡了杯茶,在两人的对面坐下,充满期待地看着陆舟说道。 Said that is what exciting matter needs me to help?” “说吧,是什么激动人心的事情需要我帮忙?” Lu Zhou: In fact, I did not determine that asked your matter whether under appropriate...... I want to observe and emulate your anton, does not know whether conveniently?” 陆舟:“事实上,我也不确定拜托你这件事是否合适……我想观摩下你的anton,不知道是否方便?” Minor matter one, this is not a thing that is worth keeping secret. Happen to my anton is making the maintenance routine, I led you to have a look in the past,” then looked that to sat in Lu Zhou nearby Jericho, David asked with a smile, you? Is and we passes together? When here?” “小事一桩,这又不是什么值得保密的东西。正好我的anton正在做定期维护,我带你过去看看好了,”接着看向了坐在陆舟旁边的杰里科,大卫笑着问道,“你呢?是和我们一起过去?还是待在这里?” Has not thought that this big shot will talk to oneself suddenly, Jericho said feeling overwhelmingly flattered: I......” 没想到这位大佬会突然向自己搭话,杰里科受宠若惊地说道:“我……” Looks Jericho that cannot make up mind, Lu Zhou said for him: Follows to have a look, is good to you.” 看着拿不定主意的杰里科,陆舟替他说道:“跟着过来看看吧,对你有好处。” David haha smiles, wielded starting: That walks together.” 大卫哈哈笑了笑,挥了下手:“那就一起走吧。” ...... …… anton is situated in the corner/horn of d.e.shaw research institute, by independent construction depositing. Lu Zhou thinks this Super Computer volume will be huge, when he sees its honour truly, was actually given the accident/surprise by its low key. anton坐落在d.e.shaw研究所的一角,由一座单独的建筑存放。原本陆舟以为这台超算的体积会非常庞大,然而当他真正看到它尊荣的时候,却被它的低调给意外到了。 The computational chemistry nuclear weapon in this legend, area , is ten several squares. 这台传说中的计算化学界核武器,占地面积只有不过是十数个平方而已。 However for this merely ten several square meters engine case, David actually built area incessantly hundred times of Super Computer centers for it. 然而就是为了这台仅仅十数平米的机箱,大卫却为它打造了一栋占地面积不止百倍的超算中心。 Not only, according to his view, the entire anton Super Computer center from each staff to each screw bolt, is so revolving for its this machine. 不只是如此,根据他的说法,整个anton超算中心从每一名员工到每一颗螺丝钉,都是为它这一台机器而运转着。 Shocks very much?” Noticed the surprise on Lu Zhou face, David grinned to say with a smile, most first time person who saw my treasure, showed the similar expression.” “是不是很震撼?”注意到了陆舟脸上的诧异,大卫咧嘴笑道,“大多数第一次见到我这个宝贝的人,都露出了同样的表情。” Very shocks......” “是挺震撼的……” Although does not shock in the engine case that feels the science fiction feeling, but shocks with its exquisite terse. 虽然不是震撼于那充满科幻感的机箱,而是震撼与它的小巧精悍。 At this moment, in the Lu Zhou heart had a strange thought suddenly. 就在这时,陆舟心中忽然产生了一个古怪的念头。 How if puts to be able Xiao Ai? 要是把小艾放进去会怎样? Naturally, this thought he also thinks. 当然,这个念头他也只是想想而已。 Really does that is impossible...... 真这么做是不可能的…… Besides three people, in the room the staff of several Super Computer centers, are also maintaining the anton engine case. 除了三人之外,房间里还有几名超算中心的员工,正在对anton的机箱进行维护。 The big gland Lu Zhou was visiting in this Super Computer side, simultaneously conducted the introduction on the anton performance to Lu Zhou. 大卫带着陆舟在这台超算的旁边参观了一圈,同时就anton的性能对陆舟进行了介绍。 After listening to his introduction, Lu Zhou this carved to only have an issue at heart. 听完了他的介绍之后,陆舟此心里刻只有一个问题。 „Is this gadget very expensive?” “这玩意儿很贵吧?” „Very expensive/noble, but I one does not pick up the little girl two not to raise the sweetheart, so much money do not need to do to test me in any case unable to all spend,” David shrugged, patted the engine case shell, said with the tone of cracking a joke, rather, it was my sweetheart.” “是很贵,但我一不泡妞二不养情人,反正这么多钱不用来做实验我也花不完,”大卫耸了耸肩,拍了拍机箱壳,用开玩笑的语气说道,“倒不如说,它就是我的情人。” Lu Zhou could not bear tsukomi the sentence: Your sweetheart also really can spend for you......” 陆舟忍不住吐槽了句:“你的情人还真能替你花钱……” David haha smiles: That is natural, one of the reasons that this is I am also loving it.” 大卫哈哈笑了笑:“那是当然,这也是我爱着它的原因之一。” A money incessantly Franklin who each twinkle of signal light, burns down. 信号灯的每一次闪烁,烧掉的钱都不止一张富兰克林。 David Xiao who without a doubt, is separated from the vulgar interest, has the entire Wall Street most to burn money, most to have pastime of taste. 毫无疑问,脱离低级趣味的大卫・肖,拥有着整个华尔街最烧钱、最有品味的消遣。 In comparison, what yacht, the expensive car and private plane exploded simply weakly...... 相比之下,什么游艇、豪车、私人飞机简直都弱爆了…… Introduced after anton matter, David looked to Lu Zhou, continued saying: Then now, I can listen, what matter did you plan to ask truly my are?” 介绍完了anton的事情之后,大卫看向了陆舟,继续说道:“那么现在,我可以听听,你真正打算拜托我的是什么事情了吗?” He does not certainly think, Lu Zhou comes to here to have a look at his computer, encounters the issue that the legacy computer is unable to solve surely. 他当然不会以为,陆舟来这里只是为了看看他的计算机,必定是碰到了传统计算机无法解决的问题。 In fact, his intuition is truly accurate. 事实上,他的直觉确实很准。 Regarding this matter, Lu Zhou also has nothing to conceal, directly had own request. 对于这件事情,陆舟也没有任何隐瞒,直接提出了自己的请求。 I want to borrow your equipment, completes an experiment.” “我想借用你的设备,完成一个实验。” Finally heard Lu Zhou to raise this matter, David asked interestingly: „? What experiments?” 终于听到陆舟提起了这件事,大卫饶有兴趣地问道:“哦?什么实验?” Lu Zhou: Theoretical model about galvanochemistry interface structure.” 陆舟:“关于电化学界面结构的理论模型。” In laboratory suddenly peaceful. 实验室里忽然安静了下来。 Is debugging to maintain the engineers of computer to have no response actually, however the doctors of these computational chemistry directions, the movement on hand stopped in abundance. 正在调试维护计算机的工程师们倒是没什么反应,然而那些计算化学方向的博士,手上的动作纷纷停了下来。 Everyone turns head, looks to Lu Zhou. 所有人都回过头来,看向了陆舟 Especially David, shock on not mincing matter face, said with the unbelievable sound: Inconceivable...... you determined that you really did make the theoretical model of galvanochemistry interface structure?” 尤其是大卫,毫不掩饰脸上的震撼,用难以置信的声音说道:“不可思议……你确定你真的做出了电化学界面结构的理论模型?” Somewhat embarrassed, Lu Zhou that these lines of sight look coughed lightly the sound, explained: Accurate also almost, I need to rely on the Super Computer strength, improves my theoretical model. Under asking that can take the liberty, whether I can rent your equipment?” 被这些视线看的有些不好意思,陆舟轻咳了声,解释道:“准确的来说还差一点,我需要借助超算的力量,来完善我的理论模型。可以冒昧的问下,我能否租用你的设备?” I do not need money,” David shakes the head, my money could not have all spent, you should be able to realize that this feeling, looks in the bankcard the growing number, actually cannot think how should the reasonable use they, sometimes is also a burden.” “我不需要钱,”大卫摇头,“我的钱已经花不完了,你应该能体会这种感觉,看着银行卡里不断增长的数字,却想不到该怎么合理的使用它们,有时候也是一种负担。” Lu Zhou: „......” 陆舟:“……” The words saying that this is showing off? 话说这是在炫富吗? Lu Zhou seriously pondered a while issue, definitely is unable to realize this burden. 陆舟认真思考了一会儿这个问题,完全无法体会到这种负担。 Although after the material needs satisfied, he before money looks does not have was actually heavy, but if some people must give him 1-2 hundred million, he will not certainly reject. 虽说在物质需求满足了之后,他对金钱看得倒是没以前那么重了,但如果有人非要给他1-2亿的话,他当然还是不会拒绝的。 No, let alone was 1-2 hundred million, if were the bonus, even if be only tens of thousands can also let his happy a while. However this type high joyful actually and money has no relations, is wins the pleasure that purely this matter brings. 不,别说是1-2亿了,如果是奖金的话,哪怕只有几万也是能让他高兴一会儿的。不过这种高快乐倒是和钱没什么关系,纯粹是获奖这件事情本身带来的乐趣。 , David continued saying: I only have a request.” 顿了顿,大卫继续说道:“我只有一个请求。” Lu Zhou asked: What is?” 陆舟问道:“是什么?” You can not use in the paper add on my name, but I hope that you can in the position of research agency, inscribe the anton Super Computer center of d.e.shaw research institute,” looks at Lu Zhou earnestly, David has the exciting sound with the sincerity, continues saying that I hope enables entire chemistry to hear, and approval that is from the heart, the sound that makes from anton!” “你可以不用在论文中加上我的名字,但我希望你能在研究机构的位置,写上d.e.shaw研究所的anton超算中心,”认真地看着陆舟,大卫用诚恳中带着激动的声音,继续说道,“我希望让整个化学界能听到,并且发自内心的认可,从anton身上发出的声音!”
