The Red Era, the Opening University Speech

Chapter 134: 120 million times per second, 6 times more than Emperor M

The light in the emergency room remained on, but there was no news.

Just when everyone was getting anxious, Secretary Song arrived in a hurry.

Seeing him appear, Wu Youxiang, Wang Shoujue and others were all shocked. Their superiors had come down to express their condolences several times, so they were naturally familiar with Secretary Song.

"How is Li Mu doing?" Secretary Song's first words were about his concern for Li Mu's condition.

Wu Youxiang looked up at the emergency room without saying anything.

Seeing this, Secretary Song's face suddenly darkened and he said:

"Director Wu, Director Wang, the leaders are very angry!"

"You work hard on scientific research, and your leaders approve of it, but you sacrifice your health for scientific research and end up in the hospital."

"This is definitely wrong in his opinion. He said that you scientists are our country's most precious wealth. How can you not take care of your body? You don't even understand the principle of keeping the green mountains alive so that you will never have to worry about lack of firewood."

Listening to his words, Wang Shoujue, Huang Xinhua and others felt both moved and guilty.

"We..." Wu Youxiang opened his mouth and was about to speak.

Suddenly, the door of the emergency room was opened from the inside, and the attending doctor took off his mask and walked out.

Almost instantly, everyone rushed forward:

"Doctor, how is he doing?"

"You must do your best to treat him. If you need any medicine, just tell us and we will find a way!"

"Li Mu is too important to our country, nothing can go wrong with him!"

……

As soon as the attending doctor came out, he was surrounded by people, asking questions that made him dizzy. He waved his hands and said:

"Quiet, quiet, just listen to me first."

"The patient is fine. He just fainted due to long-term high-intensity mental exertion and lack of sleep. He will recover after a period of rest and recuperation."

His words finally made everyone feel relieved.

Wang Shoujue clenched his fists tightly and murmured, "It's good that everything is fine, it's good that everything is fine."

"This kid must be taken good care of in the future. He can't be allowed to do things like this!" Huang Xinhua said in a stern tone, but his eyes were full of relief.

Secretary Song followed up, "Not only him, the leader said that all scientific researchers should take this as a warning!"

There are only a handful of talents like Li Mu in Xia Country's scientific research community. If something happens to him, it will undoubtedly be a huge loss to the country and the people.

"What is his current condition? When will he wake up?" Wu Youxiang continued to ask.

The leading doctor said: "Although it's not a serious matter, his body has been overdrawn and his vitality has been damaged. I'm afraid he won't wake up for a while."

"Even if you wake up, you will need some time to recover. You must not work so hard again!"

"Don't worry, we will never let him work again!" Wu Youxiang said immediately.

Apart from this matter, let alone work, they couldn't even let Li Mu go to school. He had to stay in the hospital and recover before he could leave.

After a while, Li Mu was pushed out of the ward by the nurse while lying on the hospital bed.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with him except that he looked a little pale, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and helped push him into the ward.

Secretary Song saw that Li Mu was not seriously injured and thought that his superiors might still be worried about him, so he hurried back to report.

……

Not long after, Guo Mo and Leader Qiu also received the news that Li Mu was sent to the hospital.

The two were so frightened that they hurried out to the hospital without even having time to put on their clothes.

After entering the ward and seeing the unconscious Li Mu, their faces instantly turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

In order not to disturb Li Mu, several people walked out of the ward.

As soon as he came out, in the corridor, Guo Mo could no longer hold back and criticized harshly:

"Director Wu, Director Wang, how could this happen?"

"You have been doing research for many years, and you actually exhausted a young man to the point of causing health problems. He is still in a coma."

"You know how big of a problem this is!"

His words made Wu Youxiang and Wang Shoujue lower their heads deeply, their faces full of guilt.

Noticing that people around the corridor were looking at him curiously, Guo Mo took a deep breath and went to the hospital to borrow an office.

After entering the room, Guo Mo continued: "Tell me quickly, what's going on!"

Hearing this, Wu Youxiang took a deep breath, pulled Wang Shoujue who was about to speak, and said:
"President Guo, I am in charge of the daily affairs and logistics support of the institute. I should bear the main responsibility for this matter."

"Our institute is currently researching integrated circuit computers, and everyone in the institute is working day and night for this goal."

"It was my fault that I failed to notice in time that Li Mu was overdrawing his body for research every day."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Shoujue was shocked and said, "No, it's my responsibility. Li Mu and I have spent the most time together, so I should have been the first to notice something was wrong."

"Dong Dong Dong~" Guo Mo knocked heavily on the table three times and looked at the two of them sternly, "Is this the time for you to rush to take responsibility?"

Seeing this, Leader Qiu stepped out to mediate and said, "President Guo, don't be too angry. Fortunately, Li Mu is not seriously injured this time."

"It has already happened, and review, criticism and reflection are inevitable."

"But what we should consider more is how to protect Li Mu's health in the future."

……

On the other side of the ocean, the M Empire's National Intelligence Agency.

An intelligence officer hurried into the director's office.

After reading the information he sent, the director's eyes were full of amusement:
"You mean those Xia people made large-scale integrated circuits and surpassed us?"

"Don't be ridiculous. How is this possible? Even if we give them another 100 years, they won't be able to catch up."

"You say official news cannot be fake? That's too naive. This is just a way for them to bluff."

……

Big Brother, the intelligence agency KGB.

Looking at the recent information sent from Xia Country, Chief Kgeber looked serious.

Tetramethrin, large-scale transistor integration, program-controlled digital switches...

Scientific research results have emerged one after another like mushrooms after a rain.

This is definitely not a coincidence.

"Could it be that they released a smoke bomb to confuse us?" asked an intelligence analyst.

Chief Kgerber slowly put the document down and said, "Once is confusing, twice is probably confusing, but three times is absolutely impossible."

"The Xia people will not do such a thankless task."

"Go, we must quickly investigate the reasons for the sudden explosion of scientific research results in Xia Country, especially the information about the scientists who led these studies."

...Kyoto, Harmony Hospital.

In the ward filled with disinfectant, Li Mu opened his eyes dazedly.

Looking at the white ceiling, his pupils shrank slightly.

I touched my heart, fortunately, there was no hole in it. The assassination by Emperor M just now was just a dream.

Looking at the white ceiling, Li Mu guessed that he should have been sent to the hospital.

"I don't know how long I've been unconscious." He thought as he tried hard to support his body and sit up.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, and many memories that did not belong to him emerged.

"Is this... the original body's previous learning memory?" Li Mu was stunned.

I didn't expect that after a coma, I would recover some memories.

Could it be that the journey was completely completed only when he fell into a coma?

It’s a pity that I still have no memory of my previous life, I just remember the knowledge I once learned.

"As expected of a top student, the memories he recovered are all different from others." Li Mu complained in his mind while trying hard to get up and get the cup of water on the bedside table.

His throat was extremely dry now.

But his body was so limp that he had no strength at all. He struggled for a long time but couldn't get up.

Li Mu simply gave up on getting up and went straight to get the cup of water.

However, just when he finally picked up the cup, the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open with a creaky sound.

"Awake, awake, the person is awake!" The person who came in first wiped his eyes in disbelief, then shouted.

Li Mushou trembled with fear, and the enamel cup fell to the ground with a "bang".

……

The hospital director at the door was scolding the young nurse who had just yelled, Wu Youxiang was cleaning the water stains on the floor, and Wang Shoujue was sitting on a small stool beside the bed, holding Li Mu's hand tightly.

He said, "You fell down suddenly, and we were all scared!"

"Fortunately, it's nothing serious, otherwise I don't know how to explain it."

Wu Youxiang, who was standing by, said, "Old Wang, this is not your fault, it's my fault. I was in charge of logistics, but I didn't notice that Li Mu had a problem with his health in time."

Looking at Wang Shoujue and Wu Youxiang who were full of self-blame and guilt, Li Mu smiled helplessly and said, "Director Wang, Director Wu, you are exaggerating. Actually, I am fine."

"The reason why I fainted suddenly was just because I consumed too much energy."

"Give me a couple of days to recover, and I'll be back soon."

Hearing Li Mu say this, Wang Shoujue became anxious: "No, absolutely not. You have been in a coma for three days. The doctor said that you are seriously overdrawn and need to recuperate for a while."

"Besides, the integrated circuit computer has been successfully developed, and the institute has no research tasks for the time being. What are you in such a hurry to go back for?"

"Your health is not just your own business. Even if it's for the country, you must take good care of your body!"

Looking at the two nervous people, Li Mu couldn't help but feel a little moved.

There really wasn't anything serious with his health, he was just a little weak. But if I told them this now, I guess they wouldn't believe it.

After thinking for a while, Li Mu changed the subject: "By the way, I fainted too quickly before, and I don't know how the data performance of the integrated circuit computer is?"

"Don't worry about this, it's very good!" Wang Shoujue smiled, first glanced at the guard at the door, and then whispered:
"The computing power has reached 120 million times per second, which is more than 58 times that of the IBM 7090 all-crystalline mainframe developed by the M Emperor in 6!"

As he said this, a smile broke out on his originally sad face.

A gap of more than 6 times can be said to be a significant lead.

And there is one thing Wang Shoujue hasn’t mentioned yet. The computing speed of the Type 58 machine developed in China in 103 was only 1 times per second, which was directly increased by 120 times!
This kind of progress cannot be described as a leap, it is simply like riding a rocket.

"That's great." Li Mu nodded slightly, feeling a little regretful about the result.

In 73, China trial-produced the first integrated circuit computer with a computing speed of 100 million times per second, and it used small and medium-scale integrated circuits.

In comparison, he took the large-scale integrated circuit and produced 120 million times, which made him feel a little unwilling, as the potential was obviously huge.

"What? 120 million times per second are not enough for you?" Wu Youxiang noticed the change in Li Mu's expression and asked in surprise.

Li Mu did not hide it and said, "It's not that I'm not satisfied, but I think I can do better."

“Yes, there is still room for improvement, but that is all for the future. Your current task is to have a good rest.” Wang Shoujue said with a serious face.

Afterwards, the two talked for a while, and as it was getting late, they left first to let Li Mu have a good rest.

……

the next day.

Although Li Mu still felt a little weak, at least he had the strength to hold the cup.

He sat on the bed and ate 8 boxes of white porridge and 16 big buns in one go.

The nurse who brought him meals was stunned and refused to serve him any more meals no matter what.

Just when Li Mu was trying to persuade her to get him two more buns, Qian Shuyan's hearty laughter rang out at the door: "I knew you wouldn't be full in the hospital. Come on, we got some for you from school. Eat it while it's hot."

As he spoke, Qian Shuyan walked in with Huang Xinhua, Professor Wang and Professor Wei, each holding two aluminum lunch boxes in their hands.

"Old man, he has eaten a lot and can't eat anymore." The young nurse was startled and hurriedly spoke out to dissuade him.

Qian Shuyan waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about this young comrade. He has a different appetite than ordinary people. He can eat the amount of food for 4 or 5 people in one meal. This amount is really not much."

"If you're worried, I'll talk to your dean later."

As he spoke, he handed the lunch box to Li Mu.

After opening it, it was still porridge and big meat buns. It was a bit light, but now was not the time to be picky about food.

Li Mu devoured everything that Qian Shuyan and the others brought like a whirlwind, then he burped with satisfaction and thanked everyone:

"Thank you, Dean, Professor Huang, Professor Wang, and Professor Wei."

"Why are you being so polite to us?" Qian Shuyan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Li Mu was able to eat and move and looked pretty good. But then his face turned serious again and he said:
"Do you know you're wrong?"

"I was wrong." Li Mu admitted his mistake honestly.

He could still be stubborn with Wang Shoujue and Wu Youxiang, but when facing Qian Shuyan, who was like an elder, he could only bow his head and admit his mistakes.

Qian Shuyan was not angry to begin with, and seeing him like this, he couldn't bear to blame him, so he sighed and said:

"You should have a good rest first, and put aside the Semiconductor Research Institute matters for now. You don't have to worry about the school, it won't count as you being absent from class."

"As for your family..."

The sudden pause made Li Muxin feel anxious. If Grandma Li knew that he had fainted, she would probably be heartbroken.

He quickly said, "There's no need to notify my family, so they don't worry."

Inside the ward, a few people chatted for a while.

As they chatted, Li Mu suddenly felt something was wrong.
