Before Chu Heng took office, he had plans to develop the electronics industry and had an in-depth understanding of the domestic industry.
At that time, he was surprised to find that China's electronics industry was not far behind during this period, and even surpassed the electronics industry powers of later generations such as Japan and South Korea.
Beginning in the 1950s, that is, after the outbreak of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, the Telecommunications Industry Administration was established in China to solve the problem of military electronic communications, and preparations were made to build an electronic tube factory in Jiuxianqiao, Sijiu City, which is now BOE, with technical assistance provided by East Germany.
In addition, Jiuxianqiao also built a large-scale motor factory, North China Radio Equipment Joint Factory, Cable Power Plant, North China Optoelectronics Technology Research Institute and other units.
After that, enterprises such as the Sijiucheng Computing Technology Research Institute, the Modu East China Computing Technology Research Institute, the Modu Component Factory No. 5, the Electronic Tube Factory, and the Radio No. 14 Factory were successively established.
Even in the area of integrated circuits, China has made considerable achievements.
As early as 1968, Yongchuan County established the Solid Circuit Research Institute, the Yongchuan Semiconductor Research Institute, which is an analog integrated circuit research institute.
In the same year, Modu Radio Factory 14 was the first to produce PMOS circuits, kicking off the development of MOS integrated circuits in China, and now it has gradually narrowed the distance with Citigroup.
Although the development progress is still a few years behind Citigroup, if the momentum continues, it will not take long to catch up.
Therefore, Chu Heng was puzzled as to why China fell so far behind in the electronics industry in later generations.
What happened?
Chu Heng, who had not learned the relevant information, was completely confused.
But it doesn't matter, no matter what happens next, he will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it.
Chu Heng supports China's electronics industry!
You have to do whatever it takes to sell iron!
When Jesus came, he had to leave the cross behind in exchange for money before leaving.
"The bus has arrived, Mr. Chu."
Just when Chu Heng was thinking wildly, the guy from the sales department hurried over.
"Ah, okay." Chu Heng immediately put away his thoughts and looked towards the exit of the station again. Not long after, he saw a large number of passengers swarming in, densely packed like zombies emerging from their cages.
Chu Heng looked around and waited for ten minutes before he finally saw his wife's distant cousin, Ni Anan, who would later become a great figure in the computer field, among the crowd.
"Hi! Brother Nan!"
Chu Heng hurriedly waved his hand to indicate.
Seeing that he came to pick him up at the station, Ni Anan was very happy despite being confused. He hurriedly said a few words to the researchers around him who were seconded from the cadre school by the light industry company like him, and squeezed in with difficulty carrying a big bag.
The crowd quickly came out of the station.
Quickly arriving in front of Chu Heng, Ni Anan looked at his distant brother-in-law who had helped him a lot. He grinned with sincere joy on his face. He opened his arms and hugged him hard, and asked loudly: "Where are you from?
Did you know I was back?"
"Haha, come here." Chu Heng let go of him and said with a smile: "I am now the deputy general manager of the Light Industry Export Company. How do you think I know this?"
"What?" Ni Anan blinked in shock, then hurriedly grabbed him and asked what was going on in his mind: "What's going on? You guys are studying radios, why did you send us who are studying computers? Is there something wrong?
Are there other things in there?"
"It's indeed something else." Chu Heng toasted him a cigarette and revealed to him in advance: "I plan to set up a research institute specializing in the development of civilian electronic products. This time I transferred you here just to set up a research institute.
preparations made.”
"Civil electronic products?" Ni Anan, a typical science and engineering man, immediately became interested when he heard this: "Tell me, what is this research institute planning to study?"
"Let's talk about it later, let's talk about it later, this is not the place to chat, let's go home first, don't you want your wife and children?" Chu Heng smiled happily, reached out to pick up the luggage bag he threw on the ground, and turned to face
The guy from the sales department warned: "Do a good job in reception. These experts are our precious wealth. We can't neglect them. Do you understand?"
"I understand, Mr. Chu." The young man nodded hurriedly, keeping his words in mind and not even daring to make a single punctuation mistake.
"Then I will take Comrade Ni Anan and leave first. Remember to report it later and report again tomorrow." Chu Heng explained again, then pulled Ni Anan out of the station and got on the Volga parked outside.
After getting in the car, Ni Anan couldn't help but ask again: "Tell me quickly, what kind of civilian electronic products is that research institute going to develop?"
"You are really not tired." Chu Heng suddenly couldn't laugh or cry, so he could only explain to him while driving: "The specific product has not been determined yet, but since it is for civilian use, it must be closely related to people's lives, such as televisions.
Watches, rice cookers, and even computers can all be research and development targets... just like this."
As he spoke, he reached into his arms and took out a watch from his pocket.
The silver-white all-steel body has no hands or dials, only a digital display. The time will flash with red LED numbers on the dark screen. In the eyes of the current public, this watch looks like something from a science fiction novel.
product.
"This is... an electronic watch??" Ni Anan was so shocked that he couldn't care less about being polite and grabbed it and held it in his hand for a closer look.
Chu Heng introduced on the side: "This is the latest electronic watch from abroad, called Pulsar, but because the technology is immature, it is not yet on the market. I accidentally discovered it when I went abroad last year, and it took a lot of effort to get it.
.
It is equipped with a quartz movement composed of 25 integrated chips, with an operating frequency of 32768Hz and an accuracy of ±60 seconds per year."
This watch belongs to the fourth generation of electronic watches. It was unveiled in New York in May last year. At a time when the third generation of analog crystal electronic watches is very popular, this electronic watch with digital display is a bit sci-fi. It attracted a lot of attention as soon as it was released.
A lot of attention.
And because it has not yet been officially launched, this watch has become extremely precious. Many people who pursue the trend are proud to own one.
Chu Heng didn't buy the piece in his hands. A Hollywood star who was looking for him to exorcise evil spirits gave him a piece as a gift. At that time, it looked like a treasure and he received all kinds of praises.
However, the technology of this thing is not yet mature, and the power consumption is a bit fast. The battery has to be replaced. Chu Heng found it troublesome after using it for a while, so he threw it into the warehouse. He only remembered it when he talked about consumer electronic products today.
Ni Anan was playing with the electronic watch in his hand obsessively at this time, and he wanted to find a screwdriver immediately to take it apart and see the internal structure.
Men in science and engineering are all like this. They want to take apart everything they see and study it.
Chu Heng glanced at it and said: "After the institute is established, the products to be developed will be similar to this kind of product. It will transform scientific and technological achievements into civilian applications and earn foreign exchange back, thus feeding back our scientific research path."
