In the end, Qu Jianlei did not agree to buy the 240 million Calculation Units. That was simply impossible.

A 240-million Calculation Unit set was not the largest. Through series and parallel connections, it could form an even more massive computing and control system.

However, it was already a semi-fixed computing module.

Rhine ultimately made use of her local influence and successfully got Sihai Creation
