"..."

Hearing this, Feng Shi was also shocked!

There were many professional terms in the video, and Feng Shi couldn't understand them at all.

However, he also drew a conclusion from Deng Qiang's words.

That is, the thing called transistor that Fang Yu made this time is awesome!

Moreover, it’s not just awesome!

However, Feng Shi soon felt something was wrong.

"Professor Deng, I have an immature question, and I'm not sure if I should ask it."

"If this thing called a transistor is so useful, why haven't scientists in other countries thought of using it instead of vacuum tubes?"

"Since they invented this thing first, why not just replace it?"

Hearing Feng Shi's question, Deng Qiang took a deep breath and spoke slowly.

"Indeed, the transistor was invented by Westerners first."

"However, as far as I know, even the Eagles haven't yet developed the technology to mass-produce these transistors."

"Each transistor requires a huge amount of money and time to manufacture, so it is simply not possible to use it in large quantities."

"The price of one gram of transistors on Blue Star is now almost ten times that of gold."

"And the number of transistors needed for a computer would weigh at least dozens of kilograms."

"Even the Americans couldn't be so extravagant as to completely replace vacuum tubes with transistors to build a computer."

"And, that's why I'm so happy."

At this point, Deng Qiang's voice suddenly became high-pitched.

"why?"

"The reason is so simple."

"Think about it, if the Eagles can't come up with so much money to build a transistor computer, then it's even more impossible for us in the Dragon Country."

"But Fang Yu still made it."

"Doesn't this prove that Fang Yu has definitely found a way to mass-produce transistors, significantly reducing the cost of manufacturing them?"

"With the mass production technology of transistors, we no longer need to worry about the future computer production of Longguo."

"Furthermore, we can use this technological advantage to dump transistors on Western countries!"

"In this way, we can not only earn a lot of foreign exchange."

"At the same time, with such cheap transistors, Western profit-oriented companies will no longer bother to conduct their own independent research and development."

"Our Dragon Country will be able to take the lead in the field of computers within at least the next 20 to 30 years!"

At this moment, the excitement in Deng Qiang's voice could hardly be suppressed.

If before this, Deng Qiang only admired Fang Yu.

From this moment on, in Deng Qiang's eyes, Fang Yu's status has jumped two or three levels, and he can even be on par with his teacher!

After all, being able to make such a breakthrough in the computer field, Fang Yu's future is limitless!

Don’t look at it, what Fang Yu did seemed to be just a “minor” change to the computer.

But his move has played an immeasurable role in the development of computers!

I'm afraid that in the entire history of mankind, everything Fang Yu did today will be recorded in bold and colorful strokes!

In the hall of human technological development, Fang Yu will definitely have a place!

Hearing Deng Qiang's words, Feng Shi also nodded.

Now, I finally understood everything.

This time, Fang Yu not only solved the problem of lack of computers for Longguo.

Moreover, they "accidentally" solved the most troublesome problem for the development of computers on the entire Blue Planet.

Indirectly, it promoted the development of human technology.

This achievement is huge...

Thinking of this, Feng Shi also showed an excited smile on his face.

"Hahahaha!"

"Great, great! That's great!"

"Director Fang truly deserves to be the unrivaled talent chosen by President Wu. He's truly amazing!"

But after the joy, Feng Shi seemed to suddenly think of something.

He asked again.

"By the way, Professor Deng."

"You have made the problem of transistors clear to us."

"But I remember you just mentioned that besides transistors, there's also something called... integrated circuits."

"Professor Deng, what exactly is this integrated circuit?"

"How can I explain this to you?"

Hearing this, Deng Qiang scratched the back of his head and said with some embarrassment.

"Let me put it this way, Mr. Feng, you should have your own farmyard in your hometown, right?"

"Yes! Not only that, but the yard is quite big!"

Hearing this, Feng Shi said with some pride.

"To be honest, my yard has three or four large tiled houses..."

"Well, let's take your yard as an example."

Hearing this, Deng Qiang nodded and said.

"You said there were three or four large tiled houses in your yard. If I'm guessing correctly, you probably used the one in the middle as your living room."

"The rest are used as kitchen, bedroom, and toilet, right?"

"Yeah...that's right, it's basically like this for farmers."

"But what does this have to do with this so-called integrated circuit?"

After hearing Deng Qiang's words, Feng Shi became more confused.

I don’t know what Deng Qiang meant by these words.

"What I mean is, I wonder if Mr. Feng has noticed it."

"Are these rooms with different functions separated to some extent? They might be at the back of the house, and some might even require walking more than ten meters to reach them?"

Upon hearing this, Deng Qiang did not get angry at being interrupted, but continued to explain science.

"At the same time, if my guess is correct, Mr. Feng should also have an apartment allocated by his work unit in the Imperial Academy, right?"

"Then you should have noticed that although these houses are only a few dozen square meters, they are far smaller than the yard you have in your hometown."

"But the rooms with different functions, such as the kitchen, toilet and living room, are also fully equipped."

"A building of dozens of square meters has all the functions of a rural house that originally occupied hundreds of square meters... This is integration!"

"And the same is true for so-called integrated circuits."

"It's a technology that combines the individual transistors, resistors, capacitors, and other components that used to operate independently onto a single, small silicon chip!"

"In this way, not only will the size of these parts be further reduced, but the reliability of the parts will also be greatly improved!"

"At the same time, because of the integrated circuit, the length of the electronic circuits between the transistors is greatly shortened, and power consumption is further reduced."

"It can be said that if the switch from vacuum tubes to transistors represents the leap from the first generation of computers to the second generation of computers."

"Then a computer made of transistors and integrated circuits could even be considered a 2.5th generation, or even a third generation computer!"

Having said that, Deng Qiang let out a long sigh and then added.

"Like transistors, integrated circuit technology was born almost at the same time as the advent of transistors."

"However, in the West, this technology is just a concept proposed by some scientists about the future development of computers."

"But what I didn't expect was that Fang Yu not only developed the mass production technology of transistors."

"At the same time, they even developed integrated circuits."

"Complete all this within two months..."

Having said that, Deng Qiang suddenly felt a little confused and shook his head.

"For a person like this, I can't think of any other words to describe him except the word 'monster'..."
