"Four transistors are already considered top-notch technology, countless transistors..." Zhang Sanxi's face suddenly changed after hearing this.
He had never imagined that this situation would happen, but when he thought about it carefully, he discovered the mystery.
A transistor is actually a solid semiconductor device that can be used for detection, rectification, amplification, switching, voltage stabilization, signal modulation and many other functions.
The transistor acts as a variable switch that controls the current flowing out based on the input voltage, so the transistor can be used as a switch for current.
Several transistors are integrated together to form an integrated circuit chip.
Zhang Sanxi once read in a foreign journal that physicist Jack Kilby had invented the first integrated circuit chip.
The journal also predicted that integrated circuit chips would replace the microtube era and become the main component of computers.
Although at this time, the computer was only a computer similar to ENIAC, which weighed 27 tons and occupied an area of 1,800 square feet. It could only be used as a tool to assist artillery in calculating the trajectory of artillery shells.
But all scientists know that computers will definitely become an important tool for human society.
Zhang Sanxi also knew this, but he had never associated computers with transistor radios.
In other words, he doesn't have such big ambitions at all.
After all, even the most crazy scientific lunatic would not think of developing a computer starting from transistors under such backward conditions in China.
After Zhang Sanxi figured everything out, he stared at Li Donglai. After a long time, he said: "Director Li, are you kidding me about this computer project? I think as a top scientist, you should know better than me.
Developing a usable computer is no small project.
You must know that even that kind of bulky tube computer was successfully developed by countless scientists working together and spending hundreds of millions of dollars.
Although your steel rolling mill laboratory is said to be powerful, there is no way to compare with others."
Li Donglai smiled lightly when he heard this and said: "At the same time, I can understand your concerns. But as a researcher, you should also know that exploring science does not rely solely on funds and not personnel. The most important thing is luck.
.
You may not know it yet.
I've always been very lucky, no matter what I study, I can get twice the result with half the effort."
What Li Donglai said sounded nonsense.
However, Zhang Sanxi nodded and agreed.
Studying science is like being in a dark box and picking out the one you need from thousands of small balls.
Generally speaking, it takes countless experiments to get the small ball you need.
But there is indeed a kind of people in this world who are exceptionally lucky.
In particular, Zhang Sanxi also studied Li Donglai's steel rolling mill laboratory.
He was surprised to find that the projects carried out in the rolling mill laboratory never took any detours.
Once a project is determined, it will definitely be successful in the end.
It can also be said that he achieved 1000% results with 1% of other people's costs.
This is also the fundamental reason why the steel rolling mill laboratory can become the largest laboratory in the country in just a few years.
Of course, as a scientist, Zhang Sanxi does not believe in luck.
He knew very well that the reason why the steel rolling mill laboratory was able to achieve these results was entirely due to Li Donglai's personal strength.
With Li Donglai's guidance, the steel rolling mill laboratory can develop so well.
Think of this.
Zhang Sanxi had an idea in his mind. Maybe under the leadership of this legendary scientist, the rolling mill laboratory could indeed develop a computer that could run successfully.
Zhang Sanxi nodded heavily and said: "Director Li Donglai, count me in this matter. When will I return to the capital with you?"
Zhang Qingcui did not expect that Zhang Sanxi would be so happy.
Li Donglai had already expected it.
"Chief Engineer Zhang. Before you join the steel rolling mill laboratory, I also want to entrust you to help me complete a task."
Zhang Sanxi straightened her chest and said, "Director Li, you can tell me if you have anything."
"I heard that there were many engineers in your project team who were suppressed by the leaders in the factory for various reasons. Some were demoted, and some have now left the factory.
You should know that our project requires a lot of talent, so now I want to entrust you to help recruit people."
Only when Zhang Sanxi heard this did she understand Li Donglai's true intention.
But he did not reject Li Donglai.
The reason is simple. Now his old friends are in deep trouble. It would be great if they could join the rolling mill laboratory.
In addition, by cooperating with those old friends, Zhang Sanxi's future research work will be smoother.
"Don't worry, Director Li, I will go find those old friends in a while.
But I still have a small question, that is, what kind of treatment will your steel rolling mill offer those researchers?"
Zhang Sanxi said: "You also know that I don't care about the treatment, but my old friends are also raising families and have to support their wives and children."
Zhang Sanxi looked a little embarrassed when she said these words.
Li Donglai sighed slightly in his heart, people of this age are really simple.
If someone like Zhang Sanxi brought a team here in the future, he would have definitely started negotiating conditions with the steel rolling mill laboratory.
They will demand all kinds of treatment, even those that are far better than those of researchers in the steel rolling mill laboratory.
Of course, even if Zhang Sanxi did not put forward conditions, Li Donglai would not treat these researchers badly.
He smiled and said: "The welfare package of our steel rolling mill laboratory is divided into two parts. One part is the regular welfare package, which means that the salary is paid according to the researcher's level and housing is provided.
The other part can also be understood as bonuses or performance.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! For researchers who have made special contributions, we will issue a large bonus every month, with the amount of the bonus being at least 150 yuan."
After listening to Li Donglai's explanation, Zhang San was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.
He knows very well that the capital is now overcrowded and many factories no longer provide housing.
In addition, the capital city has the highest salary in the country. Even according to the original level, the salary received by the researchers is far higher than that in the Magic City.
At this time, Zhang Qingcui suddenly said: "Chief Engineer Zhang is responsible for the operation of the laboratory. There is one thing that our Director Li did not understand just now, that is, all researchers in our steel plant laboratory can receive 20 pounds per month.
of white flour and 5 pounds of pork.”
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Sanxi couldn't help but stand up.
Zhang Sanxi is the chief engineer of Radio Factory No. 3 and is a high-level technical talent. However, the grain he gets every month is no different from that of ordinary workers. He can only get 40 to 50 kilograms of coarse grains and 5 kilograms of fine grains.
As for pork, I dare not even think about it.
The last time Zhang Sanxi ate pork was three months ago.
At that time, in order to encourage researchers to engage in research, the factory gave each person half a pound of pork.
Now the steel rolling mill actually distributes an extra 20 kilograms of white flour and 5 kilograms of pork to the researchers every month. This kind of treatment is simply unimaginable.
Zhang Sanxi said decisively: "Don't worry, Director Li, I will definitely invite all those old guys back."
Li Donglai had no doubts about Zhang Sanxi's words. After all, he had already fired the highest salary package that could be offered in the country.
If those people still choose not to join the Steel Rolling Mill Laboratory, it only means that they are reluctant to leave the Magic City.
"Mr. Zhang, I'll leave you with the studio matter. We'll live in the state-owned hotel next door. You can let us know when you've finished it."
After leaving the address with Zhang Sanxi, Li Donglai took Zhang Qingcui and left Zhang Sanxi's house.
He also wanted to take this opportunity to visit all the places of interest in the Demon City.
Magic City is one of the largest cities in China, with a long history and many places of interest.
Zhang Qingcui also stayed in the laboratory all day and rarely came out to play. When she learned that Li Donglai was going to take him to play, she naturally raised her hands to express welcome.
While Li Donglai and Zhang Qingcui were leisurely shopping in the Magic City, Zhang Sanxi could not wait to arrive at Lao Zheng's house.
When Lao Zheng opened the door and saw Zhang Sanxi, he was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly said with a smile: "Lao Zhang, it's working time now, and you actually came to me when you were free. If I guessed correctly, you are now
He has been fired from Radio Factory No. 3."
At this point, he suddenly paused and said with a smile: "Maybe you were not fired. You should have been arranged by Deputy Director Liu to raise pigs."
"You really guessed it right." Zhang Sanxi said with a bitter smile.
Yesterday, before leaving, Lao Zheng had reminded him to be wary of the assassination from Deputy Director Liu.
But he didn't listen at the time.
It feels ridiculous when I think about it now.
Lao Zheng didn't mean to laugh at Zhang Sanxi. He patted him heavily on the shoulder and invited him into the room. Then he took out a bottle of bulk liquor from the cupboard, poured a glass and said: "Brother, today, brother
I'll just get drunk with you and then I'll rest. After you finish drinking, after you're drunk, all your worries will disappear."
Zhang Sanxi threw the wine glass aside and said with a smile: "I promise, I was indeed assigned to raise pigs, and I did resign, but I came to you today not to drink with you to relieve my boredom.
I helped you find a new job."
Hearing this, Lao Zheng suddenly burst into laughter: "Zhang Sanxi, are you crazy? Researchers like us, despite our high level of education, are actually useless. Our work is not even as good as ordinary workers. Looking for a job
Where is it so easy to find?"
He kept staring at Zhang Sanxi when he said this.
Seeing that Zhang Sanxi's expression remained unchanged, Lao Zheng stopped laughing and frowned and asked: "Zhang Sanxi, you didn't really help me find a job, did you? Is it the cleaning team in our neighborhood?"
Zhang Sanxi waved her hands and said: "What are you talking about? Lao Zheng, you are a senior intellectual and one of the few transistor talents in the country. How can you clean the house?"
I don’t know, have you ever heard of a unit called the Rolling Mill Laboratory?”
"Rolling mill laboratory? I seem to have heard of it." Lao Zheng raised his eyelids and thought for a while before saying: "This laboratory seems to be the largest laboratory in the country and has produced a lot of results. Last year we went to the district committee for a meeting
At that time, the leader once asked us to study hard in this laboratory.
What's wrong? Are we invited to the rolling mill laboratory? How is this possible?
The rolling mill laboratory is a medical laboratory.
They are engaged in drug research and have nothing to do with us."
Zhang Sanxi said: "Old Zheng, you don't know something now. The steel rolling mill laboratory was indeed researching drugs at the beginning.
But under the leadership of Li Donglai, they have come up with a lot of good things now.
For example, a bicycle can run without pedaling.
Now the rolling mill laboratory is going to study transistor radios, so I want to invite us there too."
Facing an old brother like Lao Zheng, Zhang Sanxi stopped hiding and directly explained the purpose of his visit: "In fact, I just met with Director Li Donglai of the steel rolling mill laboratory.
Director Li Donglai invited me to participate in the steel rolling mill laboratory, and also wanted us old brothers to go together.
In addition, the benefits offered by the Zhan Steel Factory Laboratory are also very generous."
After Zhang Sanxi snatched away the treatment in the steel rolling mill laboratory, Old Zheng Jing couldn't close his mouth.
"Oh my god. Where are you asking for a researcher? It's like asking for a leader."
Zhang Sanxi nodded and said: "Old Zheng, you are right. Although I have only had two contacts with Director Li Donglai of the steel rolling mill laboratory, I feel that he is different from ordinary leaders.
He is the kind of leader who truly puts researchers first and never puts on leadership airs.
And you should also know that Director Li Donglai is a scientist himself and has won the Nobel Prize. We can rest assured working with such a person."
What do you fear most about this research job?
That is what we are most afraid of: laymen leading experts.
Some leaders do not understand science and still give blind orders.
In the end, the project failed, and the researchers were blamed instead.
Lao Zheng also knew this. The reason why he didn't agree immediately was because he was afraid that Li Donglai would be like Deputy Director Liu.
After listening to Zhang Sanxi's words, he nodded heavily and said: "Don't worry, Lao Zhang, I promise to join the steel rolling mill laboratory with you. We brothers can't make a transistor radio in Shanghai, so let's go there
Let’s do something big in the capital.”
"Just the two of us are not enough. Director Li from the steel rolling mill laboratory said that the more people, the better."
Lao Zheng nodded and said, "Lao Cai, Lao Huang, and Lao Liu were not happy in the laboratory.
Now he has been pushed to an idle position by Deputy Factory Director Liu.
I have a good relationship with them and I can bring them over."
Zhang Sanxi nodded and said, "It's all your fault. You must notify me as soon as possible after the results are available."
"Don't worry, they have long been dissatisfied with Director Liu, and have been repeatedly criticized by Deputy Director Liu in the laboratory.
Maybe I will be assigned to raise pigs at some time, and they will definitely agree." Lao Zheng assured.
