The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

Chapter 121, Handwritten Character Recognition Machine and 111 Chinese Character Information Processing Experimental System, Two Suggestions, Shame
In the office of the Institute of Computing Technology, Shan Yunbo and others stood outside the window, looking at Wang Duoyu who was busy working with his head down, and whispered to each other.

"Yunbo, is your team leader Wang really that amazing? Last time, you and Chu Yuheng both said that he completed a 4MB programming project in less than four days. That's unlikely, right? He looks very young."

"That's right, he looks younger than me. Even if he's been learning programming since he was in the womb, he can't be that good, right? Don't we know how much work it takes to program four megabytes? Yunbo, you guys must be dazzled."

"I also think it's impossible. Holy shit, that's four megabytes! It's terrifying! It took all of us nearly two weeks to complete it, and he did it in less than four days? If he programmed it right in front of us, I wouldn't believe it!"

Tang Xicheng, Fan Weiliang, Shen Zhongming and others were all workers, peasants and soldiers who graduated from universities. They were lucky enough to pass the master's admissions of the Institute of Computing Technology this year and became master's students.

But they were not college students who had passed the college entrance examination. Their abilities, horizons and perspectives were very limited. So it was understandable that they found it unbelievable that Wang Duoyu had completed the four-MB programming work in four days.

Shan Yunbo didn't believe it at first, but the fact happened right before his eyes and he couldn't help but believe it.

Just when Shan Yunbo was about to speak, Zeng Maochao happened to pass by here. Tang Xicheng and others immediately left quickly like mice seeing a cat.

Zeng Maochao is the director of the Sixth Research Laboratory of the Institute of Computing Technology. Although he has no supervision over Shan Yunbo and others, he is still a leader after all.

After watching Shan Yunbo and the others leave, Zeng Maochao didn't pay much attention to them. Instead, he knocked on the door and walked in. Following him was another person named Ni Guangnan.

Wang Duoyu, Xia Peisu and others were in the office. The person Zeng Maochao wanted to find was the former, or to be more precise, he wanted to borrow someone.

"Professor Xia, I'd like to borrow Comrade Wang Duoyu's time from your office for an afternoon. How about that?"

After the greetings, Zeng Maochao immediately stated his purpose. Xia Peisu frowned upon hearing this:
"Director Zeng, we're very busy right now. One afternoon is too long. Isn't your project almost finished? Why do you still need our help?"

The other side had many capable people under their command. In 748, Ni Guangnan participated in Project 748 on behalf of the Institute of Computing Technology, and carried out research on Chinese character processing based on Project .

In other words, after 111, Zeng Maochao and his team in the Sixth Research Laboratory had already begun developing two major scientific research projects: the "Handwritten Character Recognition Machine" and the " Chinese Character Information Processing Experimental System."

After nearly four years of research, these two projects should be almost completed. Why do we still need to trouble Wang Duoyu?
Xia Peisu was puzzled, while Zeng Maochao gestured to Ni Guangnan behind him to speak.

The latter explained:
"Professor Xia, we heard that Wang Duoyu can type blindly. We've almost finished developing the handwriting recognition machine, so we hope he can come in and give us some advice."

Typewriters have been around for many years, but such devices have been constantly being improved. However, those abroad are all English typewriters, and Chinese typewriters are still very rare.

The research and development of Chinese typewriters is very important to Ni Guangnan and his team!

Therefore, Ni Guangnan tried every possible way to improve the Chinese character processing machine, hoping that such a device could be more perfect.

In the entire Institute of Computing Technology, most researchers have participated in the relevant testing work of the Chinese character processor and have also provided opinions.

The only one who joined was Wang Duoyu, who was not from the Institute of Computing Technology and had not completed any research work related to Chinese character processing machines.

From Shan Yunbo and Chu Yuheng, Ni Guangnan learned that Wang Duoyu could actually "type blindly", so maybe after experiencing the Chinese character processing machine, he could provide more suggestions.

Upon hearing this, Xia Peisu suddenly realized what was going on, and then he looked at Wang Duoyu.

The latter is still busy writing and calculating, because the workload is not small. He has been dealing with these tasks for the past three days.

Wang Duoyu looked up when he realized that the atmosphere around him was not right and heard someone calling him.

When Wang Duoyu saw that it was Xia Peisu calling him, he saw Zeng Maochao and Ni Guangnan.

The latter two exchanged a few pleasantries, and then repeated their purpose. Wang Duoyu then said:
"Okay, then I'll go over and learn about the Chinese character processing machine."

His idea was to relax his mind and secondly to have a chat with Ni Guangnan.

The latter is the future chief engineer of Lenovo Group and his abilities are quite impressive.

Zeng Maochao and Ni Guangnan were overjoyed, and then brought Wang Duoyu to the office of the Sixth Research Laboratory.

"Comrade Wang, this is the Chinese character processing machine that our Sixth Laboratory is researching. You can try it out."

In the office, Ni Guangnan used a light pen to click on the screen to input Chinese characters. To be honest, this invention is quite cool, especially in this era, it is definitely at the pinnacle.

Wang Duoyu had a brief experience with it, and although it was a bit uncomfortable, after all, he was used to keyboard input, and the current Chinese character information processing system was indeed a bit poor.

Simply put, it is too inefficient.

After the experience, he first praised it, and then, at Ni Guangnan's urging, put forward two requests.

The latter nodded repeatedly as he listened, feeling that he had found the right person.

Because the suggestions put forward by Wang Duoyu were very targeted, Ni Guangnan had a hunch that once the modifications were completed based on these two suggestions, the current Chinese character processing machine would definitely be able to surpass American microcomputers.

"Thank you, Comrade Wang, you really hit the nail on the head. Thank you so much." Ni Guangnan was very grateful. He immediately took out paper and pen to write it down, then shook Wang Duoyu's hand and thanked him repeatedly.

"Comrade Ni, you are too polite. I'm glad I can help you." Wang Duoyu smiled and said sincerely.

He could feel that the other party was indeed sincere, but free praise was worthless!
"No, no, no, I'm not being polite, but you really helped me." Ni Guangnan was very polite. He pulled Wang Duoyu to continue the discussion and also said that he would treat him to a meal later.

Have a meal?

Wang Duoyu suddenly thought it was better to forget it, as he was going to Wangfujing Street in the evening to have dinner with Zhu Ling.

Seeing him shaking his head to refuse, Ni Guangnan didn't think much about it: "Then tomorrow at noon, you must let me treat you to a meal, otherwise, I will feel bad."

Look what this says!
There's no problem with tomorrow's lunch, we can just have lunch together then.

In the evening, Wang Duoyu met Zhu Ling. She had a smile on her face, and she looked very happy.

"I have good news, do you want to hear it?"

After Wang Duoyu got off the train at Bingcheng Railway Station, he got on another bus and headed straight for Harbin Institute of Technology.

I left Harbin Institute of Technology in early December and when I came back it was already December 18th. I was away for a full half month.

During the half-month period, I spent half of my time communicating with mathematicians such as Shiing-Shen Chern, and I also happened to meet Professor Zhao Zhongyao from the Institute of Atomic Sciences.

After communicating with Professor Zhao Zhongyao, Wang Duoyu suddenly felt that his ideas became much clearer, and he would definitely be able to produce many more papers.

He spent the rest of his time at the Institute of Computing Technology, completing some work on the high-speed array processor and helping Ni Guangnan improve the Chinese character processing system. Although he only made two suggestions, the latter still pestered him to improve and implement these two suggestions.

In addition, the good news that Zhu Ling mentioned was that her parents wanted to meet him.

Wang Duoyu never expected such news, so the result was naturally nothing, it happened too quickly!

He still hasn't decided whether to choose Zhu Ling or Liu Xiaoli. It's not that he wants to have two relationships at the same time, but he himself hasn't settled down yet. Besides, will Zhu Ling be willing to come to Bingcheng to live with him?

Don't want to!
From their past few meetings and correspondence, Wang Duoyu knew very well what she meant, which was that she hoped he could come to Beijing to settle down.

But he was originally an ordinary person from Dahonggou Village. Although he did not have a strong sense of nostalgia for his hometown, he was still not happy to settle down in Beijing.

Perhaps more than ten years later, he would be more willing to stay in the capital, but for the past few years, forget it.

The old man is about to go to the south to draw circles. His future is in the south, not in the capital.

Of course, Beijing has the largest number of scientific research institutions, universities, etc. in the country and a large number of talents, but it is also the political center.

Wang Duoyu doesn't really want to settle down in Beijing, so he is now thinking about whether he can persuade Zhu Ling to come to Bingcheng.

Sitting in the car, Wang Duoyu didn't continue thinking about this question because the car had already entered the campus of Harbin Institute of Technology.

I brought back quite a lot of things from the capital, including two large sacks of letters from readers, hundreds of books, and many gifts.

Among the many gifts, the Montblanc pen was particularly eye-catching.

To be honest, Montblanc pens are dazzling, but they are more suitable for daily use.

Of course, he doesn't have any filters for things like pens. If it can be used, then use it. If it can't, then forget it.

Wang Duoyu has been using the Hero 100 fountain pen that his leader rewarded him with. The nib must be a little worn out, right?

There is a slight difference between 14K gold and 18K gold, but they are still gold.

"When I have enough money in the future, I will definitely buy a pure gold pen as a souvenir."

His eyes fell on the pen gift box, Wang Duoyu thought secretly.

"arrive!"

The car had stopped in front of the office building of the Department of Computational Mathematics. Wang Duoyu got out of the car, but two big brothers from the Security Department had already helped pick up the two large sacks of readers' letters.

Needless to say, these letters from readers can only be stored in the storage room in the office building.

Anyway, the climate in Ice City is dry, so there is no need to worry about the letters getting damp.

When I returned to dormitory 303, there was no one in the room. I guess Mo Ruogao and the others were still in class and hadn't come back yet.

Wang Duoyu directed two big brothers from the security department to help put hundreds of books, gifts, etc. in the dormitory, and then he left the dormitory.

It is really not suitable for him to live in dormitory 303 anymore, because most of the debris in the entire dormitory are his belongings.

Not to mention anything else, there are nearly five hundred books alone.

He brought back more than 200 books as soon as school started in September, and brought back a lot of books later. This time he brought back hundreds of books.

Nearly five hundred books are quite a lot. They are piled up on the desk, filling up completely, and many of them are placed in cardboard boxes.

The dormitory was not very big to begin with, but now it is full of his things, making the whole dormitory look very crowded.

So I went straight to the office of the Department of Computational Mathematics, found Wu Congxin, and applied to the director.

When the latter heard it, he immediately arranged it.

Nowadays, Wu Congqin does not treat Wang Duoyu as a student. If there is any need, he will of course satisfy the other party as soon as possible.

So, Wu Congxin brought Wang Duoyu to the principal's office, and coincidentally, Han Jue, the office director, was also there.

"Principal, Director Han, the thing is, Duoyu used to live in Dormitory 303, but he always brought back a lot of books from outside, and now Dormitory 303 is almost full."

After Wu Congxin brought Wang Duoyu into the office, he immediately got straight to the point.

When Liu Deben and Han Jue heard this, the former showed a look of joy and a hint of regret, while the latter frowned.

For Liu Deben, it was a great thing that Wang Duoyu was willing to make a request, and he was of course happy.

But what annoyed him was that as the principal, he had not thought of this in advance?

You know, if Wang Duoyu is willing, he can go to the United States to study at any time and get better treatment there.

So, Wang Duoyu stayed in Harbin Institute of Technology, but still had to squeeze into a crowded eight-person dormitory with other people?
unacceptable!

The reason why Han Jue frowned was that Wang Duoyu refused the interview with People's Daily, causing Harbin Institute of Technology to miss such a publicity opportunity.

After all, it is the People's Daily. Wang Duoyu is too willful. He said he would not accept the interview and he really did not accept it without any mercy.

Now he's taking the initiative to ask for a single room. How can this be possible?

But before Han Jue could say anything, Liu Deben had already agreed to this matter and even stood up to help arrange the dormitory. The former was stunned.

I can't stop it even if I want to!

More than ten minutes later, Liu Deben brought Wang Duoyu to the teacher's dormitory building. There was a room on the fourth floor that was still empty. It was a two-bedroom, one-living room house, about 57 square meters. It was not small, but not very big either.

There is no kitchen or bathroom, just two bedrooms and a living room, no balcony or anything else.

There is a public kitchen, bathroom and toilet at the end of this dormitory building.

"Duoyu, this is the only accommodation we can offer you at Harbin Institute of Technology right now. We're not the United States, so we don't have such great conditions. But don't worry, things will definitely get better in the future."

Liu Deben introduced it with a look of shame, because some days ago, Qiu Chengtong had already introduced the treatment in the United States: private houses, scholarships of at least 10,000 US dollars, etc.

In contrast, Harbin Institute of Technology could only provide Wang Duoyu with a two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment of 57 square meters.

The gap is huge.

"Principal, this treatment is already very good, I am very satisfied." Wang Duoyu smiled. He couldn't ask for material enjoyment that far exceeded his status.

But it will be soon, by 1980, and things will be much better.
