"Computer?" Joan was stunned for a moment and said: "A machine used for calculation, a very appropriate name! Ours is called 'Christopher'!"
"Christopher?" Wang Xuexin was a little surprised. He originally thought Joan would say "Universal Decoder", but he didn't expect it to be such a strange name. It sounded like a personal name.
Then Wang Xuexin suddenly remembered the movie he had watched in modern times. "Christopher" was indeed a personal name. He was Turing's classmate, friend, and Turing's first love. To be precise, he was the object of his secret love.
It's just that... when Turing decided to confess to him, he found that there would never be a chance. Christopher passed away because of an accident.
Turing gave his invention this name, obviously to express his inner memory of Christopher.
But of course, no one knew this, not even Joan...it was illegal in this day and age.
As for its other name "Universal Decoding Machine", Wang Xuexin guessed that it should be the name given by MI6.
"It's a very good name!" Wang Xuexin said, "It seems you think of it as the same person!"
"Yes!" Joan laughed: "Because it can do things that humans can do, and sometimes it is smarter than humans!"
Qiong thought so, but Wang Xuexin knew that this was not the case.
But of course, if Wang Xuexin doesn't point it out, Turing, who is far away at this time, will be in trouble.
Wang Xuexin knew what Qiong was going to say next. She would definitely ask: "Can I see your computer?"
Therefore, Wang Xuexin gave the answer first: "I'm sorry, Qiong, we can't show you our computer, because it is... you understand!"
Joan and Colonel Ian looked at each other, their eyes slightly disappointed but not at all surprised... Of course, such a project must be kept strictly confidential, just like the sun never sets.
Therefore, Wang Xuexin perfectly covered up his lie: If Wang Xuexin was really asked to take out the computer and show it to them, Wang Xuexin would not be able to pay even one and a half of the cost.
Then Wang Xuexin laughed at himself: "I thought we were the first, but I didn't expect you to be one step ahead!"
Joan's focus was no longer on this. She looked at Wang Xuexin with a little expectation and asked: "Comrade leader, can you tell me... have you solved the problem of relay recording data..."
Wang Xuexin spread his arms: "No comment, Qiong! Sorry, I have said too much today!"
As he said this, Wang Xuexin raised his hand as if to see off guests.
This is retreat in order to advance.
Wang Xuexin knew that if he immediately asked to cooperate with Sun Bu Luo at this time, it would be easy to be suspected... As a scientist, Qiong may not have such thoughts, but Colonel Ian is from MI6 and as an intelligence officer
He should be thinking at this time: everything is going so smoothly, could this be a trap set for "Christopher"?
If there is a doubtful beginning, the rest will be difficult.
Therefore, Wang Xuexin pretended to be more advanced than who should I be afraid of... Relay computers are indeed more advanced and faster than mechanical computers, so Wang Xuexin should not show much interest in "Christopher".
Even Wang Xuexin confessed to Colonel Ian before he left: "Colonel, I also hope that you can keep the secret!"
"Of course, Comrade Commander!" Colonel Ian replied. At this time, he no longer had any contempt for Wang Xuexin and other Eighth Route Army troops.
To be precise, at this time, Colonel Ian was sighing in his heart: These are a group of magical people. Although they have simple conditions and harsh environment, they have extraordinary intelligence, which allows them to go far in certain fields.
Being on top of the world is incredible and admirable!
After returning, Ian and Joan immediately reported the incident to London and requested cooperation with the Eighth Route Army in computers.
London immediately went into a panic after receiving the telegram. Many people immediately expressed doubts about this matter. The focus of the doubts was whether the Eighth Route Army had a "universal decoding machine" and a more advanced universal decoding machine:
"This is impossible!" The field marshal stood up and said: "You may not have seen the Chinese army, but I have seen it. They are simply no different from primitive people, backward, stupid, barbaric... How can such people produce products?
It’s ridiculous to come up with a ‘universal decoding machine’!”
Field Marshal was once sent to Southeast Asia to fight side by side with the expeditionary force. He commanded the Sun Never Sets army on the battlefield to trick the Chinese army time and time again. However, at this time, the Sun Never Sets made nonsense and trampled the Chinese army underfoot...
…This is a commander with an extremely ugly and dirty soul. What’s ridiculous is that in movies and TV shows, he is portrayed as a hero.
The Chief of General Staff agreed with the Field Marshal's view. He said: "We all know one thing: the 'Universal Decoder' was developed through the cooperation of a group of mathematicians, cryptography experts, and even geniuses. This is an epoch-making machine.
, China cannot have such talents, and of course it is impossible to have such machines. They don’t even have a decent deciphering team..."
At this time, the air force general interrupted their heated discussion.
"Gentlemen!" the Air Force General said: "Although common sense tells me that what you said is right, but...perhaps you have forgotten that it was the Eighth Route Army that was the first to use 'missiles' on the battlefield. If they even have this equipment,
If it can be developed, what else is impossible?"
The Air Force General's words immediately silenced the conference room.
Then someone asked: "Admiral, you have obtained the drawings. Is that true?"
The air force general shook his head and replied: "The drawings are still on their way, but does this have anything to do with the capabilities of the Eighth Route Army?"
This is true. The fact is that the Eighth Route Army has already used "missiles" on the battlefield, and it was the first to use them on the battlefield. This has proved the scientific research capabilities of the Eighth Route Army.
Even if the drawings are not real, what does it mean?
All that can be explained is that the Eighth Route Army deceived and the sun never sets!
"There are also rocket launchers!" the director of MI6 added: "According to our investigation, the Eighth Route Army has also developed rocket launchers for export to bear, and napalm for export of eagle sauce. If these are all gadgets..."
As he spoke, the director flashed the document in his hand in front of everyone and said: "Gentlemen, the Eighth Route Army has improved Mao Xiong's 'La-5' fighter jet so that it can be produced at a lower cost but with better flight performance and
Load capacity!”
Everyone couldn't help but be in an uproar after hearing this. Improving fighter planes is not a trivial matter. It requires a very high level of science and technology, otherwise it will just be superfluous.
"Gentlemen!" the Air Force General said: "Let's face reality. Although I don't want to believe it, I think it is true. The Eighth Route Army is indeed developing a 'universal decoding machine', and it is probably more advanced than us!"
