Chapter 589

At the same time, China.

Gu Lu also learned that Director Philok was fired by IBM.

"It's interesting, it's interesting. It's really interesting how IBM is doing this." Gu Lu was browsing the news on foreign forums with a faint smile on his lips.

"Open your mouth!"

"ah!"

Beside the hospital bed, Su Xi peeled off the oranges piece by piece and fed them to Gu Lu's mouth.

Dong dong dong~~

At this time, there was a knock on the door of the ward.

Through the window of the ward door, you can see that the person coming is Ai Liang.

"Researcher Ai, come in!" Gu Lu said loudly.

Ai Liang opened the door and came in.

"Gu Lu, you two chat, I'll go out to buy dinner. Mr. Ai, is there anything you like to eat?" Seeing Ai Liang coming over, Su Xi stood up from the bedside.

"No, no need. I'll just come over and say a few words to Professor Gu. I don't need to trouble you so much." Ai Liang waved his hands politely.

Su Xi's eyes narrowed into crescent moons, "It's no trouble, it's just a way."

After saying that, Su Xi turned around and left with brisk steps.

Ai Liang pulled a chair over, sat next to Gu Lu's hospital bed, and said with emotion, "Professor Gu is really lucky!"

Ai Liang was still wondering why Professor Gu, with his good looks, had not yet gotten married. Maybe he had some special hobbies.

But now Ai Liang knows that although Gu Lu is not married yet, he has such a fair-skinned and beautiful girlfriend.

and……

Looking at the dress of Gu Lu's girlfriend and the fiery red Lamborghini parked downstairs of the hospital, it can be seen that Miss Su must have been born in a fairly well-off family.

A proper second-generation rich lady.

And someone like Gu Lu, who is young, promising, talented, and has a rich second-generation girlfriend, is definitely a winner in life!

However, Ai Liang has long since lost his feelings of envy and jealousy towards Gu Lu, so he is not too impressed by Gu Lu's excellence.

"Ah, Researcher Ai, what did you just say?" Gu Lu had been browsing the forum posts and didn't hear what Ai Liang just said.

"Nothing." Ai Liang waved his hand, smiled, and asked, "What is Professor Gu looking at?"

"The directors of IBM fired Philok, the director of the IBM Quantum Computing Center. Are you aware of this?" Gu Lu replied with a smile.

Ai Liang nodded, "I heard someone talk about it when I came here. Unexpectedly, IBM's actions can be said to be very fast. We just held a press conference in the morning, and they went directly to the press conference in the afternoon.

A scapegoat was introduced and the person was fired."

Speaking of this, Ai Liang was a little lucky. He looked at Gu Lu with a grateful look, "Fortunately, with you here, we are not the loser in this quantum computer research and development competition."

"Otherwise, there is no guarantee that any of us will be pushed out as a scapegoat and end up like Director Philok."

Gu Lu, who was sitting on the hospital bed, was suddenly startled and lowered his voice, "Isn't it true?"

Ai Liang smiled mysteriously, "It's possible!"

"But Professor Gu, you don't have to worry! Behind you is Minister Jiang, a big boss. I don't dare to say it abroad. At least in the domestic scientific research circle, no one has the guts to touch you." Ai Liang.

He smiled and patted Gu Lu on the shoulder.

The Minister Ai Liang mentioned is the current Minister of Science and Technology and the most powerful figure in the domestic science and technology field.

Minister Jiang is very fond of Gu Lu, which is no secret in Ai Liang's circle.

Therefore, no one would be stupid enough to touch Gu Lu.

"How's it going with Mr. Guo?" Gu Lu did not discuss this sensitive topic with Ai Liang anymore, but changed the topic and asked.

Academician Guo and Gu Lu live in the same ward.

However, Gu Lu couldn't get out of bed, so he hadn't visited Academician Guo yet.

"I just went to visit the teacher when I came here. The nurse said that the teacher is recovering well and he will probably be discharged from the hospital in two or three days." Ai Liang said.

"That's okay." Gu Lu nodded.

"Hey, Gu Lu, you and the teacher worked really hard this time. Especially you. I heard the doctor said that if you hadn't relied on your youth, half of your life would have been lost this time. More than fifty people

You can really hold on even after hours of non-stop sleep!" Ai Liang said sincerely.

Ordinary people who stay up all day and all night long ago have confused minds and fights between the upper and lower eyelids.

But Gu Lv was better, he didn't sleep for more than fifty hours, and his brain could still maintain normal logical thinking ability.

Ai Liang didn't know how much perseverance Gu Lu had to successfully persist until the birth of the quantum computer.

but……

What Ai Liang didn't know even more was that Gu Lu didn't stay awake for more than fifty hours, but instead stayed awake for more than a hundred hours.

Of course, this is because Gu Lu has a systematic approach.

Otherwise, no matter how good Gu Lu was, he would not be able to keep his brain clear for more than a hundred hours.

Ai Liang began to whisper in Gu Lu's ears, making Gu Lu once again enjoy the fear of being dominated by the endless nagging of others.

Gu Lu held Ai Liang's hand and interrupted Ai Liang, "Researcher Ai, I understand what you said."

"But if I hadn't worked so hard, would we have won?"

"Uh..." Gu Lu's words really stopped Ai Liang.

What Gu Lu said is correct.

Gu Lu’s contribution to the development of this quantum computer is indelible.

In terms of progress, the IBM Quantum Computing Center cannot lag behind their project team by a few days.

If Gu Lu hadn't been so desperate in the last few days, then they would probably be the losers.

It was precisely because Gu Lu stayed up all night regardless of his health that he achieved his current hard-won victory.

"Why!"

Ai Liang sighed helplessly, then smiled bitterly.

"Anyway, next time is no exception. Don't fight so hard next time." Ai Liang said with a straight face.

Gu Lu said, "Researcher Ai, you are so mother-in-law, you remind me of a person."

Ai Liang was confused, "Who?"

Gu Lu: "My mother!"

Ai Liang: "..."

The two then chatted for a while.

Mainly about the subsequent development plans of quantum computers and the like.

As Ai Liang said at the morning press conference, the next step for quantum computers must be miniaturization.

This is true for both the semiconductor quantum computer in China and the superconducting quantum computer in the United States.

"Hey, Gu Lu, did you know that as soon as the morning press conference ended, there were many domestic and foreign banks and financial institutions hoping that we would provide their companies with a commercial quantum computer."

"Did you tell them the price of a commercial quantum computer?"
