Chapter 273: Chapter 225 The Cool Server (Please Subscribe!)_1 Command Center. Command Room. Tang Qing comfortably lounged in a soft chair, munching on sunflower seeds while Tang Yi stood rigidly next to him. A progress bar on the projection screen sped along. Half a minute later. The progress bar finally reached the end. At this point, Little Two’s voice sounded. "Commander, Communication Server no. 1 control system has successfully started, connected, and finished extreme data exchange testing, everything is operating normally." Upon hearing that everything was working properly, Tang Qing got a little excited. He thought he could finally use Little Two... to watch movies on the internet. This was not a joke, this was Tang Qing’s actual thought. He could come here and watch a movie or play some games to relax during his spare time from calligraphy practice. The simulation sound effect in the command room was perfect, just as good as a movie theater. The communication server could connect with the entire outer internet wirelessly at high speed, without restrictions of geographical location or web-address filtering from the operator. It could access nearly all the internet networks worldwide, except for intranets, and its concealment ability was extremely high. With current technology, no one would be able to trace the actual address of the user. Tang Qing suddenly thought of a question, he asked: "Little Two, what does ’no. 1’ mean? Are there many servers like this here?" "Yes, Commander, the command center has backup communication servers, they can replace the no. 1 server in case it breaks down or is abnormal, they can be upgraded but two can’t operate at the same time." Little Two replied. "Why is that?" Tang Qing, curious as ever, asked. "In reply to the Commander, because there is only one communication server’s connection interface device in Little Two’s system, it cannot be increased. However, the interface device does not have data transmission flow restrictions, thus when the data exchange flow reaches saturation, the server can be upgraded." Little Two explained. After hearing the explanation, Tang Qing understood. Little Two’s system had a device used specifically to connect with the outer communication server, but there was only one such device, it could only provide one-on-one service. This was truly... lame. Most importantly, the damn upgrade certainly costs money. Money-Grabbing System. Tang Qing couldn’t help but complain. "Then, how fast is your communication rate? I hope it won’t need an upgrade soon." Tang Qing asked. It wasn’t a problem yet, but if one day he had a crazy idea and asked Little Two to monitor all the global camera image information, a single data center wouldn’t be able to handle it. "In response to the Commander, the server’s two-way communication rate per second is 1P." Little Two responded. "1P?" Tang Qing was astonished. "Yes." Little Two replied. Upon receiving confirmation from Little Two, Tang Qing was flabbergasted that the initial data transfer rate was 1P per second. What was this concept? It means that even after a decade or so, when he was reborn, this server could handle the data exchange flow of the entire global internet. Damn, you’re awesome. I was not mentally prepared yet, and you’ve already started showing off. No, let’s start over. "Little Two, are you sure the externally converted flow rate unit is 1P?" Tang Qing confirmed once more. "Yes, Commander." Little Two replied. "Hiss..." Tang Qing gasped. He used to think that this server could handle at most a few hundred thousand to a million GB per second, 1P... just how many GB is that? It’s more than one million GB. Little Two, you really like to show off, don’t you? When will I be able to use all this bandwidth? This is per second, not per day or per hour. Hey! It seemed like Tang Qing thought of something; a look of joy crossed his face. If I can’t use it all, I can certainly sell it. Right. Sell it. "Little Two, can the server receive signals from mobile communication devices?" Tang Qing tentatively asked. You can’t get too excited too early, in case the fall is too hard. "In response to the Commander, no, the communication server only has two functions: first, it provides data transmission service to all owned devices installed with the quantum communication module; second, it accesses the outer internet. In addition to this, it cannot provide wireless communication services to third-party devices." Little Two explained. "..." Tang Qing was speechless. In simple terms, only his people can use this gadget. He wanted to ask Little Two: Do you think it’s a waste to squander such a powerful communication flow? No. A glimmer of hope reignited in Tang Qing’s heart. "Little Two, can the communication modules in these bugs be used to transmit video images?" Tang Qing asked again. "Reporting to the Commander, no, these chips are all specially designed and can only transmit specific information," Little Two replied. "Okay, you win," Tang Qing said, sounding dejected. He just had an idea, a nearly insane idea, which is to replace the internet. That’s right, replacing the internet, replacing the physical transmission layer of the internet, and the core of it is the quantum communication chip. If that server can enable two devices equipped with quantum communication chips to communicate with each other, can’t he install these in mobile phones, computers, web servers, etc., to achieve communication? Moreover, through the server, all the devices with installed chips could provide ultra-high-speed wireless internet services. All the traffic would be independent of the physical lines operated by existing operators. Copper cables, optical cables, and optical fibers and the like would be completely phased out. But now it seems that there isn’t much hope, because he can’t make the right chips. The only known chip types can transmit voice and text, this functionality, even if made, would just be a mobile phone. Even if the mall comes up with something like a military computer in the later stage, he can get it. But... the cost would be so high. Selling some skewers... "Little Two, when can we make chips?" Tang Qing asked again. "Commander, there’s not enough information to query," said Little Two. Tang Qing didn’t dwell on it any further, if it can’t be done, it can’t be done. Besides, making money doesn’t necessarily rely on this. In that case, he would keep the server as his trump card. It was safe, and in the future, there wouldn’t be any worry about people eavesdropping on phone calls or internet usage. I don’t even need your lines, what the hell are you going to tap into? It could also provide his people or company with secure, high-speed, uninterrupted network connection services in the future. That doesn’t sound bad. So, once the excitement wore off, Tang Qing no longer foolishly thought about making money from this. To be honest, he never liked it in the novels when the protagonist had to sell everything good they had. They would sell if they lacked money and sell even when they didn’t need money, attracting a bunch of flies and rats, annoyingly enough. So from now on, unless it’s absolutely necessary, Tang Qing won’t let people know about his things or technologies. Seeing that he had nothing to do, Tang Qing was about to leave. "Tang Yi, the rest is up to you," Tang Qing said to Tang Yi as he got up. "Yes, Commander." After he finished, Tang Qing disappeared into his room. Once the communication server was deployed, according to the plan, Tang Yi would start to partially execute the previously discussed internet surveillance plan. Initially, it was very simple. Some people would gather information, mainly based on the previously established intelligence gathering plan’s serial number. These all needed to be done by people, the system wouldn’t handle these things, indifferently so. Little Two could only do classification and storage work, as well as some face analysis, combat assistance, and similar things. Therefore, the piled up tasks could only be slowly dealt with now. Of course, these tasks would realistically never all be completed. After all, there is incomplete information on the internet. A lot of it requires field investigation or sending people to infiltrate and learn more, which is extremely cumbersome. But it’s better than nothing. Just treat it as if we’re doing it for fun. A small part of the plan’s personnel would carry out surveillance work. They mainly check to see if there is any information online that could be harmful to Tang Qing or his interests. They would also borrow the Public Security System’s traffic monitoring to provide support for those targets that need protection. Overall, Tang Qing thinks this plan won’t be of much use or produce any profits in a few years. However, in the long run, it will play a huge role, like monitoring global camera information, locating people, etc. For now, handling miscellaneous tasks and preparations are what’s important. There’s a lot of things to do in the future. ps: My computer broke.
