Chapter 2325: No Development Environment in China
Jiubu Canteen.

Yang Xiaotao peeled the eggs and put them in Zhu Ziqing's bowl beside him.

Zhu Ziqing was somewhat flattered, but he could not resist Yang Xiaotao's kindness, so he could only use chopsticks to quickly pick up the rice porridge and swallow the fried dough sticks in his mouth. Then he said, "Director Yang, we encountered some problems in the experiment before."

"But we have improved and overcome it, and next time we do it, it will be faster."

Zhu Ziqing said seriously.

At the same time, I was happy in my heart.

After their biochemical research institute moved to the ninth department, it was divided into two groups.

Among them, Wang Guangmei and his team are developing insulin rapidly and it is estimated that it will be developed this year and submitted to the country.

But their anti-inflammatory drugs are still on the rough paper in the laboratory.

Although the final chemical structure of the anti-inflammatory drug has been calculated during this period.

But this is only a theoretical calculation.

So much unsaturation represents repeated experiments.

So many hydroxyl groups means that it is necessary to find suitable experimental requirements.

However, these experiments cannot be done simply by writing and drawing on paper.

You know, if even a catalyst, a temperature, or a simple reaction condition is wrong, the entire reaction will fail.

This answer can only be obtained after thousands of experiments.

So, it takes time to experiment.

I originally thought that the team I led would get nothing this year, and I originally thought that I would have to watch my colleagues win big prizes this year. Although I didn't say it, I still felt very nervous inside.

However, they didn't expect that before the first month of spring had even passed, their group had been involved in such an important project.

This means there will always be a way when you reach the top of the mountain.

I heard from Minister Yang that if this is produced, it will be on the same level as synthetic bovine insulin.

Thinking of this, and seeing the eggs peeled by Yang Bu himself, my heart was filled with gratitude.

It tastes so good when you take a bite.

"Okay, go back and have a good rest. When you're done, sort out the process."

"Also, Lao Zhu, from now on you will lead a team and be responsible for production."

"The more, the merrier."

Yang Xiaotao said happily while eating fried dough sticks.

This is an important raw material.

This is an important cornerstone for the future development of nine computers.

The more the better.

"Okay, Chief Yang, don't worry, we will complete the mission."

"Okay, this is our Nine Division people. I'll ask Lao Chen to send you a batch of supplies as a reward."

Zhu Ziqing immediately smiled and said, "Then I have to thank Minister Yang."

"Don't be polite, we are just friends."

The two of them were talking and laughing.

On the other side, Ma Hongjun and Wang Manshan were also grinning from ear to ear.

One of the two people can become a ninth-level person, and the other can get a TV.

More importantly, the two of them joined the working group and caught the attention of Minister Yang.

From now on, as long as we keep up with Yang Bu's footsteps, things will definitely get better and better.

Mr. Ye even held the small bowl, took a sip and laughed, with a kind look on his face.

Han Sanfeng, who was beside him, came up to him and whispered, "Dean, you have to leave some of this silicon for us."

"Our computers of the future will rely on integrated circuits."

After hearing this, Mr. Ye nodded slightly and said, "Don't worry, Xiao Tao made this just for computers."

"Otherwise, why would he spend so much effort studying a stone?"

Speaking of this, Mr. Ye also felt a lot of emotion.

In the early days, he did not have a deep understanding of computers, and even did not know much about electronic information.

But after communicating with Yang Xiaotao, I realized the prospects of this technology.

He remembered what Yang Xiaotao said: the future is the age of information.

"But you also have to show your skills."

"The integrated circuit needs to be taken out."

After Mr. Ye finished speaking, Han Sanfeng's face froze.

Because they really haven't done any research in this area.

As if he could see what Han Sanfeng was thinking, Mr. Ye sighed softly again.

Yang Xiaotao has already walked to the front.

Hearing Mr. Ye’s sigh, Han Sanfeng felt his face burning.

I have been doing computer research for several years, but have not made any progress.

And feel self-righteous and good about myself.

Unexpectedly, within less than half a year after arriving at the Ninth Department, a major breakthrough had been achieved.

This made him feel regretful.

It would have been nice if I had come to Jiubu earlier.

But just now I thought about it and felt that it was inappropriate.

After all, when they were in the Seventh Ministry of Machine Building, their leaders were very nice to them.

Just.
But one can only provide support, while the other can lead them forward.

It is clear at a glance which one is better.

While Yang Xiaotao was chatting with Zhu Ziqing, Mr. Chen and Mr. He were peeling eggs beside them, but they looked a little dazed.

In the laboratory in the morning, I finally saw the silicon in Yang Xiaotao's mouth.

But, but that’s too little.

So a whole cart of things, in the end, made less than a bowl.

And it doesn't look anything special.

Could it be that things refined from stone are so precious?

The two looked at each other and decided to go back and ask someone about this.

You can't just listen to Yang Xiaotao.

After breakfast, Mr. Peng and Mr. Chen left with a lot on their mind.

After seeing off Liu Huaimin and the others, Yang Xiaotao prepared to return to the courtyard to rest.

I stayed up all night last night. Although I felt physically fit, I was still a little tired mentally.

Besides, the stone in my heart has finally turned into silicon, and I can finally relax.

After saying something to Liu Huaimin, Li Hongfeng and others, Yang Xiaotao drove with Mr. Ye to the courtyard.

On the other side, President Peng rubbed his brows and returned to the command center.

After walking into the office, I saw the report placed by the secretary on the table.

He didn't come back yesterday afternoon. It seems he has a lot of things to deal with. I took a general look and found that they were all about the impact caused by the last black bird's visit.

Plan No. 2 consumes a lot of supplies.

In order to prepare for the next time, they must replenish it as soon as possible.

Mr. Peng took a few glances at it, then signed the document and stamped it.

After dealing with all the issues, Mr. Peng stretched himself and then remembered his business.

But when Mr. Peng picked up the phone, he didn't know who to call.

After all, the only institution in China that conducts computer research in China, apart from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, is the Computer Research Center of the Ninth Academy.

As for the other research institutes, they probably don’t have the authority of the Ninth Institute.

But he doesn't have any acquaintances at the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

After thinking about it, Mr. Peng finally thought of someone.

After dialing the phone, President Peng waited for a while. Then, a question came from the other end of the phone. President Peng immediately said, "I want office 701!"

After waiting for a while, a voice came from inside, and President Peng spoke directly, "I'm looking for Lao Zheng from 701!"

Soon, Lao Zheng's voice came, "Commander, are you looking for me?"

"Old Zheng, I have something to ask you."

"Say it, Chief."

"Last time you mentioned that the other party used high-performance computers that were more than a hundred times more powerful than ours. Is that true?"

"Yes, sir, it is."

"Then do you know how this computer was developed?"

Old Zheng didn't understand, but he still said dutifully, "Commander, according to what we know, the other party's computer development is far ahead of ours. The most important difference is that they use better technology."

“Better technology?”

"Correct!"

Lao Zheng sat on the chair and picked up the information he had collected recently.

Although their main job is decryption, they can access a lot of information through decryption.

There are both domestic and foreign ones here.

"The computers we use in China now are second-generation transistor computers. They are still in the early stages, and a hundred thousand times per second is pretty good."

"The other party is using a mature transistor computer. From what I understand, they can reach three million times."

"That's the gap."

Mr. Peng had heard all this before and was not surprised by it. He just wanted to know how to narrow the gap.

Just like the mushroom eggs back then, the other party had them but they didn’t.

But he doesn't know the difference between having and not having.

It was not until he had a detailed discussion with Mr. Qian who had returned home that he realized how big the gap was.

This is how we catch up and make earth-shaking achievements.

Just because the gap is visible.

Therefore, he needed someone to tell him how big the gap was between China and foreign countries in computers.

"We are using the second generation, but it is said that the other party has already started researching the third generation."

"integrated circuit?"

When Mr. Zheng heard what Mr. Peng said, he was stunned.

“Yes, it’s the integrated circuit.”

"After using small and medium-scale integrated circuits, the size and power consumption of this computer have been further reduced, while its reliability has been greatly improved. It is said that the computing speed has reached the level of tens of millions of times per second."

Hearing what Lao Zheng said, President Peng raised his eyebrows, "Ten million times? Are you sure?"

"No, this is our accurate intelligence."

"Besides, the other party should have a finished product, but it has not been officially used yet."

After Lao Zheng finished speaking, he asked curiously, "Commander, why are you asking this suddenly?"

"Oh, nothing."

"I just came back from the Ninth Department. They got some high-purity silicon, which they say can be used to produce integrated circuits. I'm asking you this."

"High-purity silicon?"

"I don't know that."

Lao Zheng knows a lot about computers, but when it comes to how to make a computer, he is completely clueless.

"But I think this computer is not a simple matter."

"The parts used in manufacturing have very high requirements."

"We haven't even figured out transistors in China yet, but we're thinking about researching higher-level integrated circuits. It's a bit difficult."

"Of course, the raw materials we can produce are already very rare, but it is somewhat unrealistic to expect to achieve results quickly."

After hearing what Lao Zheng said, Mr. Peng also understood a little.

That is, this high-purity silicon is of great significance to the development of domestic computers, but it cannot be realized at the moment.

After hanging up the phone, Mr. Peng called Mr. Chen and the two had a conversation.

Mr. Chen asked the people at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and their answers were similar to what Mr. Zheng said.

However, the other party was shocked when they learned that the Ninth Institute had produced high-purity silicon.

According to him, this integrated circuit is composed of many transistors made of high-purity silicon.

If China wants to produce this kind of transistor, it needs not only technology but also complex design.

In this regard, there is clearly no development environment in the country.

Mr. Chen then asked how long it would take if they started researching integrated circuit computers now.

After pondering for a moment, the person in charge of the Chinese Academy of Sciences gave a deadline of ten years.

Or at least ten years.

And it requires constant and sustained investment.

Hearing this, Mr. Chen was stunned.

When I was communicating with Yang Xiaotao in the Ninth Department, I thought that we would see results very quickly.

But unexpectedly, the other party came and took ten years!
He really didn't think it would take so long.

Just when Mr. Chen was about to hang up, the person on the other end of the phone wanted some high-purity silicon for research.

In this regard, Mr. Chen could only say that he would talk to the Ninth Department himself.

He knew how much manpower and resources the nine departments had spent for that small bowl of "silicon".

After a brief exchange between Mr. Peng and Mr. Chen, he gave a simple characterization of the matter.

High-purity silicon is important for the development of computers.

But there is still a long way to go to promote the development of computers.

In other words, the silicon research of the Nine Departments has great potential, but it is not easy to realize it.

Even so, the two of them were encouraging of Yang Xiaotao and his research on the Nine Departments.

But if they want to support, they don’t know what to support.

As long as Yang Xiaotao and the others complete the other tasks, it will be fine.

The rest of the time, they can do whatever they want.
