Jiang Hua frowned, and then started to complain: "This damn thing is a photon computer. Please forgive my ignorance. If you say this thing is a machine tool, I still believe it. Can't you make a good job for it?
Packaging, at least summarize these wirings, okay?"
The photon computer that appeared in front of Jiang Hua was beyond his expectation. It might be even bigger than Eliak back then.
Of course, because it is a photonic computer, many components cannot be understood by Jiang Hua, and they are completely different concepts from the mainstream silicon chip computers currently on the market.
"It is different from the mainstream silicon computers on the market today." The researcher explained: "Because it runs through photons, most of the original parts of this computer are optical parts, which looks very different from mainstream computers."
The staff carefully introduced to him how the photon computer worked. Jiang Hua was confused and couldn't understand it at all.
After explaining it back and forth for nearly two hours, the researcher could only shrug his shoulders: "This is probably the working principle. If you elaborate further, it would take a month to finish it."
Jiang Hua was a little embarrassed. He didn't know whether to say he understood or not. If he said he didn't understand at all, would it affect his status in the eyes of scientific researchers?
But knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing. Jiang Hua shook his head: "It's completely beyond my expectation. I don't understand this stuff at all. I can understand some vocabulary, for example, how is the calculation speed?"
"The calculation speed is 500 million times per second." The researcher said happily: "But the energy consumption is still very high now."
Jiang Hua said with a smile: "For such a big machine, it consumes a lot of energy. This is to be expected. The computing speed is quite satisfactory. I am both happy and unhappy when I see this computer."
"Mr. Jiang, may I ask why you are happy and unhappy at the same time?"
"Mr. Lu told me that your research institute has developed a photonic computer. I am really happy, because I subconsciously thought it was about the same size as our home computers." Jiang Hua shook his head: "At that time, I thought it was
It’s a milestone victory, but seeing such a big guy, I know it’s a long way to go before it can be put into practical use.”
"This is a normal step." The leader of the institute said with a smile: "It has taken nearly half a century to evolve from the Eliak you just mentioned to the computer we are using now."
"I'm greedy." Jiang Hua smiled and said, "I'm just saying that the psychological gap is relatively large now. Now that the prototype machine has been designed, we should strive to improve it and launch it on the market one day earlier."
"I'm afraid it's more difficult." The scientific researcher said awkwardly: "Not to mention how complicated the production of these optical instruments is, it is very difficult to compress the light processing process into a small chassis."
Jiang Hua nodded: "That's why I said there is still a long way to go, but having this prototype is already a major victory. Let's keep up our efforts and strive to let me use the photon computer in the shortest possible time."
"I promise to live up to expectations." The director said happily: "Old leader, look at you here. Are you giving us some guidance?"
Jiang Hua shook his head: "Forget it, I don't understand the photon computer today at all, how can I give you guidance? Science is changing with each passing day. If you don't study for three days, you professionals may not know what to do, let alone me.
This is an amateur."
"Tell us more about the future development trends of computers." The director said with a smile, "Isn't this photon computer able to be manufactured under your guidance?"
Jiang Hua waved his hands repeatedly: "Don't try to flatter me. Someone has proposed these concepts a long time ago. I'm just picking on others' wisdom."
"You can at least say a few words."
As soon as the director said these words, the researchers around him picked up their notebooks, still holding pens in their hands, and looked at Jiang Hua expectantly.
"I'm almost behind the times, what advice can I give you?" Jiang Hua smiled: "Your photon computer has great potential in the future. I think there are probably three directions for the development of computers in the future: photon computers, quantum computers, and biological computers.
"
"Of course, this is just what I think, it's just a family opinion." Jiang Hua smiled and said: "I can only propose these three names. I don't know how to study them specifically. You all are like this.
The great talent in this field depends entirely on you."
"We are also researching quantum computers, but quantum physics is indeed a very difficult subject." One research institute said: "If you want to achieve success in this area, the research institute must recruit more researchers in quantum physics.
.”
"You have nothing to say to me, go to your boss Lu, she is the person in charge of the company now, I am just a consultant."
The director said cheerfully: "I will report to the superiors later and apply for recruitment."
Jiang Hua asked with a smile: "What you said is quite trivial. You, Mr. Lu, have to consider everything. Can she agree to your application casually?"
"This question is very simple, as long as I use your name." The director said with a smile: "Basically, the company will not approve any application under your name. It's a pity that you can't come all year round.
Hui, I can only fly this big flag of yours once."
"It's good to let you beat me once." Jiang Hua laughed and scolded: "I can check with you, Mr. Lu, later to see if you have done any bad things in my name?"
"Then how dare I?" The director said with a smile: "Why don't you say a few more words? The three types of computers you mentioned are not very fuel-efficient in research. At least you can tell us a little bit about future research.
direction."
Jiang Hua thought for a while and said: "Mobile phones, you can put more effort into this product in the future."
A researcher asked in confusion: "The mobile phone is just a communication tool. Although it is also within the scope of semiconductor research, it is not our specialty. Our future should be to work more on computing tools."
"The layout is smaller." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "If you don't regard the mobile phone as a communication tool, but as a multimedia tool, then the mobile phone will be much taller."
"Multimedia tools?"
Jiang Hua nodded: "Yes, you regard mobile phones as microcomputers that can be used for communication in the future."
