Chapter 153: The output is as fierce as a tiger(1/5)
In the next few days, Zhou Jimin rushed into the computer office and started manufacturing the second computer.
Although the speed is much faster with experience, there is no way to speed up because some steps cannot be speeded up.
On this day, when Zhou Jimin came out of the clean and tidy dust-free workshop, he saw a large group of people.
Standing in the middle C position are two leaders, Lao Lin and Zhou Zhennan, who have not been seen for a long time, as well as several familiar figures behind them.
Among them were half of Zhou Jimin’s teachers, and Mr. Hua was also here.
There is a Computer Research Institute under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the boss of this institute is also concurrently served by Mr. Hua.
It is a scientific research institute that develops computers.
When Zhou Jimin asked Lao Lin and others to draw a pie in the capital, Hua Lao was not in the capital.
Later, because Zhou Jimin needed to return to Town 62, the staff involved in computer research and development had to follow him.
Out of democratic considerations, Zhou Jimin let them choose whether to stay in the capital or return to Town 62.
As a result, most people are not willing to come.
Finally, with the mediation of Lao Lin, a small team of more than 20 and nearly 30 people was selected.
Therefore, domestic computer research and development is carried out by two different research and development teams.
The research and development led by Hua Lao is mainly for the most mainstream transistor computer in the world, just like the pinnacle product of the past few years, the IBM7090.
They are following the trend, taking great strides forward, and narrowing the gap with foreign countries.
As for integrated circuits, I have never heard of them.
Although after Zhou Jimin took out the technical information, he conducted a technical discussion for less than half a month.
But for the researchers at the Chinese Academy of Sciences at that time, it was too difficult to create Zhou Jimin's unbridled ideas that shocked them.
Human beings are animals that seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. This is instinctive.
Compared with the tangible transistor computers, the better environment in Beijing, and the thought of going to the desert to drink the northwest wind and develop ethereal integrated circuit computers, everyone chose the former.
However, one year has passed, and the slap in the face is like a tornado.
Came too soon.
Therefore, after hearing the news from 62 Town, Mr. Hua couldn't sit still.
Wow, this little kid Zhou Jimin built a computer in a little more than a year in a deserted desert?
And I heard it’s still capable of 250,000 operations per second?
Either it's a lie or it's an exaggeration.
Therefore, Mr. Hua did his best and had to come to the desert to find out.
Of course, Lao Lin also needs professionals like Hua Lao to help verify the authenticity.
In addition, Zhou Zhennan, who heard that a rat was caught in 62 Town and wanted to come over to see the situation, formed a team that came to 62 Town.
"Hello leader, hello chief, you are here."
"Jimin, you did a good job and did not embarrass us industrial people."
Lao Lin patted Zhou Jimin on the shoulder, his old face full of relief and joy.
Zhou Zhennan on the side was almost speechless. Isn’t it just you, Lao Lin, who is so lucky? What are you talking about?
Really!
We haven’t seen each other for a long time, so naturally we couldn’t avoid exchanging pleasantries.
However, they are all people who do great things, and not so many have short-term parents.
Therefore, Lao Lin and the others quickly went to the conference room nearby and had a meeting directly.
It's said to be a meeting, but actually it's just to listen to Zhou Jimin's thoughts.
After receiving the good news from Jiang Shengbo in Beijing, Lao Lin called directly.
After confirmation, Lao Lin was so surprised that he hurried to town 62.
In fact, in a situation like this, it should be from the town of 62 that they take the computer back to the capital.
However, computers are too important.
Without seeing it with his own eyes, Lao Lin didn’t dare to report it to the superiors.
"Just in time, it's almost noon now, and the solar power plant can provide a lot of electricity. Jimin, let's start. Let's see how amazing this computer is."
In front of the long desk, Lao Lin said with a smile.
There was a computer in front of them. Jiang Shengbo and the others did not dare to move it without Zhou Jimin, for fear of damaging it.
No one dares to touch the first computer until the second computer is built.
Zhou Jimin was helpless. In fact, he really wanted to say that turning on this computer is very simple, just press the power switch.
News came from the power plant that power has been supplied.
After turning on the power, Hua Lao and others stared at the display screen intently.
Not long after booting up, there was a demonstration.
Because the system has already been installed, it is very simple to operate. It can be said to be a fool-like teaching, and you can easily get started soon.
Old Lin couldn't help but play.
"No other software has been developed yet. Once other software is developed, this computer will be fun."
Seeing the leader dragging the mouse to click here and double-click there, Zhou Jimin smiled and said:
"Leader, this is the computer I told you before. This mouse is like hands and feet. You can do whatever you want on the computer."
Then, he boasted again and made the pie he drew earlier much rounder.
At this time, Hua Lao and others, especially a group of professors from the Chinese Academy of Sciences who had previously held a meeting with Zhou Jimin to discuss computer research and development, had their eyes widened.
He really developed it!!!
Mr. Hua spoke directly and asked in shock and surprise:
"Jimin, how did you do it?"
Let’s not talk about whether the computer in front of us can achieve a computing speed of 25 times per second. Just the so-called software engineering, mouse, etc. are eye-opening.
It was as if a window had been pushed open and I saw a wonderful new world.
For Mr. Hua, television is no longer a magical thing.
After all, he also has a black and white TV at home.
But he never thought that one day, he would see someone create such a thing that could control the pictures on the TV.
It’s simply unbelievable.
Therefore, he was eager to know how Zhou Jimin did all this.
When Lao Lin saw that it was Mr. Hua who was asking the question, he also looked at Zhou Jimin curiously to see how he answered.
"Teacher Hua, you should still remember a popular science article about computers that you saw in foreign literature before, right?"
As soon as Zhou Jimin opened his mouth, Mr. Hua asked angrily:
"I have read a lot of literature about computers. Can you just tell me which one?"
As a leader in the field of computer research and development in the mainland, Mr. Hua often pays attention to foreign literature on computers because he also needs to know the level and development of foreign computers.
With a gentle smile, Zhou Jimin continued:
"It's about the literature about IBM's launch of the APL programming language. I think Mr. Hua, you must still have an impression, right?"
The other party also has the skill of photographic memory, so it is impossible not to remember.
"Then what?"
Mr. Hua, who was a little annoyed by Zhou Jimin's questions, sounded somewhat anxious.
"Teacher Hua, don't be anxious. It's useless to be anxious."
"You still know that I am a teacher? Are you trying to show off in front of me? Tell me now and stop asking me."
Everyone laughed after hearing this.
But Zhou Jimin shook his head and said:
"Actually, to make a long story short, computers are mainly divided into two parts. One part is hardware, which is composed of central processing unit, memory, mouse, keyboard and other peripherals."
"Let's first talk about the central processing unit. It is actually a very large-scale integrated circuit and is the computing core and control core of a computer."
"Wait a minute, I've heard of the central processor you just mentioned. Professor Han, did you tell me about this?"
As soon as he said a few words, Mr. Hua interrupted Zhou Jimin, looked at a Mediterranean man in his fifties behind him and asked.
The latter nodded very seriously and admiringly, saying:
"Yes, I still remember that we discussed with Team Leader Zhou at that time that chips, the most basic core component of integrated circuits, are very difficult to manufacture."
"Because it is too difficult to create something like a chip. There are hundreds, thousands, or even more technical difficulties that need to be overcome."
"I don't know how Team Leader Zhou led a team of less than thirty people to complete it in just one year, but I believe that this effort must have taken a lot of effort."
