Supercomputer Upgrade

Chapter 49: Supercomputer Upgrade (Part 13)

In the supercomputer room, time ticked by. Soon, Gu Xiaoxiao and all the maintenance personnel confirmed that the supercomputer upgrade could begin.

Toni nodded to Chen Mengchuan. "Mengchuan, Achen's upgrade is also ready."

Chen Mengchuan took a deep breath and said to Achen, "See you later, Achen."

"Okay, Father," Achen replied obediently.

"Let's begin," Chen Mengchuan commanded.

Upon receiving his words, Gu Xiaoxiao immediately notified Tianzhi Electronics Factory. They first disconnected the external network connection, then the internal network cables. The entire Tianzhi Electronics Factory officially halted operations. Workers began to rest, and supervisors in all workshops immediately stopped all work in progress.

After confirming the data feedback was normal, Gu Xiaoxiao disconnected the external network connection for the entire Tenzhi Technology.

Then, Toni and the core technical personnel under his team shut down Achen step by step.

When all the work was completed, Gu Xiaoxiao announced loudly, "Shut down the supercomputer."

Over a dozen maintenance personnel began the shutdown procedures for the supercomputer one by one. Ten minutes later, Gu Xiaoxiao confirmed the supercomputer was completely shut down and said, "Turn off all power connections to the supercomputer!"

"Snap~ Snap~ Snap~ Snap~" In the supercomputer room, after a series of circuit breaker closures, the cooling fans began to stop working, and the noise gradually subsided.

"Let's start!" Gu Xiaoxiao gave the order. All the maintenance personnel from the supercomputer working groups began to quickly connect the new upgraded hardware to the supercomputer system. Calculation nodes were added one by one, and storage nodes were increased.

"Brother Chuan, the supercomputer upgrade will take several hours. You guys go ahead and get busy. I'll notify you when the upgrade is almost complete," Gu Xiaoxiao said.

Chen Mengchuan nodded, and the group left the supercomputer room.

Five people entered Chen Mengchuan's office. Sun Zhongyong took the host's seat and began boiling water to make tea.

"Wanyu, how is the sales progress recently?" Chen Mengchuan asked.

These days, they had all been busy with the supercomputer upgrade and Achen's upgrade, paying no attention to the current sales situation.

Zhao Wanyu took out her phone, swiped a few times, and after looking at the data, replied with a smile, "Our cumulative production and sales volume for Dawn 1.0 is currently 33.97 million units, with cumulative sales of 14.43 billion Huaxia Yuan. We currently have 150 production lines producing Dawn 1.0."

"That many?" Chen Mengchuan was a little surprised.

Zhao Wanyu continued with a smile, "This is just the sales situation for Dawn 1.0. We haven't even talked about the Leaping 1.0 Adapter yet. We currently have a total of 163 production lines producing a total of 27 specifications of Leaping 1.0 Adapters. We have cumulatively produced and sold 16.8 million units, with an average price of about 137 Huaxia Yuan per adapter, for a cumulative sales revenue of 2.3 billion Huaxia Yuan."

"In total, Tenzhi's total revenue since its establishment is 16.7 billion Huaxia Yuan, and all this revenue was generated in the last month and a half," Zhao Wanyu said with a bright smile.

Chen Mengchuan was momentarily dazed. It had only been three and a half months since he woke up from that dream, and he now owned a company with over ten billion in revenue.

"Mengchuan, do you remember how long Tenzhi has been established?" Sun Zhongyong finished brewing the tea and handed cups to the other four.

Chen Mengchuan picked up his teacup and shook his head. "I've been too busy lately, I don't remember."

"Hahaha, I'm not trying to nag you, Mengchuan, Toni, and Brother Xu, but you really need to find time to rest. Look, Brother Xu has lost a lot of weight," Sun Zhongyong said with a laugh.

"Tenzhi was established exactly 3 months and 10 days ago today. It feels like a lifetime ago," Sun Zhongyong said with deep emotion.

After finishing her tea, Zhao Wanyu put down her cup and asked with a smile, "Brother Sun, we've asked several times, and you never told us how you and Brother Chuan met. Why don't you tell us?"

Xu Shuwei and Toni also looked at Sun Zhongyong, smiling while drinking their tea.

"You guys don't know, I was always too embarrassed to say before. I used to admire Mengchuan's character, and later I admired his abilities," Sun Zhongyong said.

"Hurry up and tell us, Brother Sun," Zhao Wanyu urged.

Sun Zhongyong chuckled, refilled their cups with water, poured it into a communal pitcher, and then slowly began to speak after pouring for everyone. "On Jiangmu Ancient Town, there's another river called the Luoyin River. I don't know who gave it such a terrible name; it's very eerie. Every year, several people drown in it. Since we were kids, we've heard stories about the Luoyin River water ghosts dragging people down to reincarnate. Last year, just after autumn, my nephew Weijie fell into this river. At the time, the entire riverbank was crowded with onlookers, and no one dared to jump in to save him."

Sun Zhongyong pointed at Chen Mengchuan. "Later, Mengchuan jumped directly into the river from the bridge and saved Weijie. He himself almost drowned, sinking all the way to the bottom."

Everyone's hearts skipped a beat upon hearing this. Zhao Wanyu's face changed.

"Fortunately, a rescue boat arrived in time and took several minutes to hook him. He almost lost consciousness and was sent to the hospital, only waking up the next day. This incident, in Jiangmu Ancient Town, is considered a remarkable feat. Even now, if you ask about Chen Mengchuan in Jiangmu Ancient Town, some people might not know who you're talking about. But if you ask about the Chen family's son who saved someone from the Luoyin River, everyone will know. There isn't a single person who doesn't know," Sun Zhongyong said enthusiastically.

"Later, Mengchuan wanted to rent a supercomputer and found me. I then introduced him to Xiaoxiao, and after being persuaded by him, I invested 100 million to register Tenzhi Technology. He, on the other hand, became a complete hands-off boss and disappeared somewhere. He only sent me the company registration documents and then vanished. He didn't return to Su City for over a week. Later, Brother Xu and Toni were also persuaded by him, and then Wanyu joined us," Sun Zhongyong said with a smile.

Chen Mengchuan took another sip of tea and playfully cursed, "I don't remember persuading you back then. I recall someone calling me late at night, saying they wanted to give me 15 million US dollars."

"Hahahaha, I was blinded by your sweet talk at the time, a moment of foolishness," Sun Zhongyong burst into laughter.

"Alright, alright, a moment of foolishness and blinded by sweet talk. How about this: you invested 15 million US dollars back then, and now I'll give you 150 million US dollars for those 5% shares. Sell them back to me," Chen Mengchuan said with a smile.

"No, no, those 5% are worth at least 2.5 billion US dollars to me. You want to buy them for 150 million US dollars? You're dreaming," Sun Zhongyong flatly refused.

Xu Shuwei was also highly amused and said, "Well, what about Wanyu? How did you and Mengchuan meet? Wang Fanghua said Chen Mengchuan brought you. When I saw your resume, it was Chen Mengchuan who had taken on my Xuanyuan Project. I didn't expect that after interviewing him for so long, he was actually trying to lure me to jump ship. Haha..."
