Chapter 152: Electricity problem, cheating(1/6)

 "This computer is really not damaged?"

Peng Hengwu still looked suspiciously, especially when Zhou Jimin took off the line and put it on the table, his heart was bleeding.

Can't you handle it with care?

What should I do if it breaks?

"Don't worry, this thing is resistant to manufacturing. I have worked hard to ensure its stability."

Computers in this era were all computers made of transistors.

There should be integrated circuits abroad, but they are still little kids and have just learned to walk.

The computer developed by Zhou Jimin is a large-area integrated circuit.

Therefore, resistance is not something you just talk about casually, and you are not afraid of ordinary bumps and bruises.

Immediately afterwards, a group of big guys watched with interest as Zhou Jimin assembled the computer.

Soon, a brand new computer appeared again.

But because there is no electricity, everyone can only stare.

Because of the anxious waiting, it was only then that everyone fully understood Zhou Jimin’s good intentions.

If there is no solar power plant in the 62 town, I am afraid that I will have to leave the desert and return to a place with electricity before testing.

And this undoubtedly adds more uncertainty.

It may even cause accidents such as the loss of the computer.

In silence, Jiang Shengbo suddenly spoke and suggested that everyone eat first and visit 62 Town later.

Wait until the sun rises, almost noon, and then conduct the computer test.

I have no choice but to do this.

So, the group of people went to the cafeteria and prepared to eat.

When we came to the canteen, everyone was very interested in the food here.

The staple food includes stick noodle porridge, steamed buns, sweet potatoes, etc., as well as Chinese cabbage, shredded potatoes, dried radish, salted fish and other vegetables, as well as green vegetables that Mr. Qian and the others have not seen for a long time.

"How many kilograms of vegetables can your town produce every day?"

Looking at the several plates of vegetables in the canteen, Mr. Deng and others raised curious questions.

Although they also know that there are hundreds of acres of vegetable fields in the town, they really have no idea of ​​how many vegetables will be produced every day.

First of all, potatoes occupy one-third of the vegetable fields, followed by sweet potatoes and other crops.

Because potatoes can be used in cooking or as a staple food, they are the best choice in this canteen's shopping list.

"It ranges from one hundred to two hundred catties."

The answer was Jiang Shengbo, who knew more about this.

"So many?"

Mr. Deng and others exclaimed again, "Then you don't need to provide vegetables outside now?"

"Basically not necessary, but occasionally you still need to purchase some mushrooms, dried seafood and other foods to enrich everyone's nutrition."

Just this one item made Mr. Deng and others fall into deep thought.

They also remembered the previous experience of the failure of the rocket test at Lao Qian's station.

The reason for the failure has now been found out, and that is that one of the scientific researchers is actually a color blind patient.

And before this, no one found this error.

This mistake can be avoided entirely through other means.

However, due to such reasons, the test failed and the losses caused were very serious.

It was also a heavy blow to Qian Lao and many other researchers involved in the project.

Therefore, it seems that the model of 62 Town is not something Zhou Jimin did recklessly in order to enjoy life and improve his treatment in the desert.

Professor Cheng's eyes also flickered, but he did not admit his mistake to Zhou Jimin.

After all, he is more than thirty years older than the latter, so it is difficult for him to bow his head and admit his mistakes.

After the silence, everyone started chatting about other topics.

After breakfast, the group visited the vegetable greenhouse and walked into Zhou Jimin's vegetable garden.

It’s just two acres of land, but it shows infinite vitality.

Even in the mainland, it is difficult to see such a prosperous and green scene.

Now, everyone looked at Zhou Jimin with a little more respect and curiosity.

On the basis of ensuring scientific research work, he can also take care of the vegetable garden so well. He is really not an ordinary person.

After coming out of the vegetable garden, everyone went to see the glass factory, power plant and other places.

Wan Xiaohua saw Zhou Jimin in the crowd, and his face was full of envy.

The big brother of my neighbor is really awesome!

From the discussion of the workers nearby, Wan Xiaohua also clearly heard that these visitors were all big guys.

He is the boss of several other stations.

The person in charge of the solar power plant introduced nervously and excitedly that the daily power generation has exceeded 12 degrees Celsius.

Because in recent times, there have been a lot more solar panels.

Even so, this amount of electricity is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket for the upcoming peak electricity consumption.

"Comrade Zhou, according to your estimate, how many computers are enough in Town 62?"

Zhou Jimin was stunned when he saw Mr. Qian suddenly asking a question. Shouldn't he ask Lao Jiang?

After all, the planning of Town 62 is in the hands of Jiang Shengbo, and Zhou Jimin is just a team leader.

"Old Qian is asking you a question. Why are you so dazed?"

Jiang Shengbo glared at him with dissatisfaction, and then he came back to his senses and looked at the former. He found that the other party had no other emotions, and then looked at Qian Laodao:

"No number of computers are enough!"

What?

Facing everyone's confused looks, Zhou Jimin continued:

"Computers are a great helper. With computers, many of our jobs can be replaced."

"For example, the computing team I manage now has eighteen people."

"Once the computers are put into use and software engineering is developed, I will definitely be able to easily complete the current workload with only three to five people."

What?

Everyone was instantly excited, but the person in charge of the power plant was confused. Wasn’t it about the amount of electricity generated? Does the computer you are talking about have anything to do with the power plant?

Regardless of Mr. Qian's excitement, Zhou Jimin continued:

"Based on computers, we can build a supercomputer and increase the computing speed to tens of millions of operations per second, or even hundreds of millions."

"At that time, the missile launchers in our town, Qian Lao's rocket launchers, etc., can greatly shorten the development time."

Now, Mr. Qian and the others can’t sit still.

They don't dare to think about a computing speed of hundreds of millions per second, nor do they expect it.

But the speed of tens of millions of calculations is still comparable.

As scientific researchers, they are very sensitive to these things.

Many experiments require quite complex calculations to ensure the accuracy of the experiment and shorten the development time.

At the same time, shortened time also means there are more possibilities.

They were excited, but Zhou Jimin stopped them, pointed to the person in charge of the power plant behind them and said:

"But leaders, please don't forget that a supercomputer also means double or even exponential power loss. With the current power generation capacity of power plants, it may not be able to support the start-up of a supercomputer."

What?

The person in charge of the power plant was dumbfounded. The power generated at 12 degrees Celsius per day was not enough to power up a supercomputer?

It's just a joke. The power generation of 12 degrees per day is already a very impressive achievement.

What else do you want?

"Then don't build supercomputers here in the desert and put them inland."

The environment in the mainland is much better than in the desert, so it is most suitable for supercomputers to be placed in the mainland.

Regarding Mr. Qian's suggestion, Zhou Jimin shook his head and said with a bitter smile:

"I don't agree. Placing the supercomputer in Town 62 is the best choice."
To be continued...
