A nation's industrial development begins with junior engineers.

As she pondered this, Dr. Lan Ying slowly shuffled over and gently pressed the head of the senior disciple from Yunnan and Guizhou down.

"Don't block it!"

"Hmm, the beginning of this program is a bit different. Is it a bootloader?"

The people on the podium shook their heads helplessly. These scientists... well, let's move on to the agenda!

"The export of transistor computers is now approved! Next, let's discuss the 'laser emitter'!"

After he finished speaking, the leaders turned their attention to Xiao Daimao, since he was the one who had created this thing. Therefore, his opinion still carried considerable weight.

Uh, when did this brat get surrounded by so many people? I can't even see his ahoge anymore.

"Should we tighten the rules of the meeting, leader?"

"Yes, I can answer that question!"

"Dr. Sid, don't be so formal. How are you doing in Shanghai?" The head of the External Affairs Department and Dr. Sid were old acquaintances. He had personally signed the special talent transfer order for Dr. Sid to Shanghai.

"It's both good and bad. Well, the development of blue laser materials is really difficult. I wanted to communicate more with a certain inventor, but unfortunately the communication conditions are too poor. I couldn't get through on the phone, and I wrote a long letter, but I didn't get a reply..." As he spoke, Dr. Sid glanced at Jiang Xia in the crowd.

Hmm, now we see the ahoge (cowlick) swaying. Hurry up and answer the question, comrades, what are you looking at?

Dr. Sid was a little itchy.

"It's the same old story: do they need the technology data transferred? If they just want to buy a big toy, then selling them the original 'laser emitter' is fine too!"

"A toy?" The Minister of the External Affairs Department remembered that in the report, Little Doe had clearly stated that this thing was a "honey pot" for catching cockroaches, and nodded in understanding.

"Yes, to a certain extent, current laser emitters are just toys!"

"However, its prospects for expansion are very bright, especially the 'range measuring system' that the Logistics Department spearheaded recently, which is highly practical! The basic theoretical research has already deepened to a certain extent..."

Alright! Got it. This is another project that requires continuous refinement by researchers. The original version can be sold to others!

The leaders of the Ministry of Foreign Trade thought that was enough. Comrades, let's swing our thirty-meter-long swords!

Making money is nothing to be ashamed of!

How much will it cost?

Hmm, the Star Wars story the little brat wrote a while ago was pretty popular. Should we try to emulate that?

Haha, yes, Jiang Xia and his sisters' creation of "Star Wars" was published as a digest in the quarterly issue of "Laser" magazine.

Even in the most recent issue, because there weren't many related papers, a good portion of it was about "Skywalker" wielding a lightsaber to fight monsters.

Unexpectedly, this issue of the magazine sold quite well in Western countries, prompting a three-time reprint in China.

Yes, it's for sale!

This magazine was originally a free gift, and not many were available. After giving them out, the office staff noticed that quite a few people were coming to ask for them. A later investigation revealed that a large portion of the group was there specifically because of the story.

One of the bolder staff members had a sudden inspiration and told the others to spread the word that the complimentary copies were sold out. He then went to another neighborhood, put on makeup, and started selling the magazines.

In the process, they actually managed to cover the living expenses of the office staff. That night, the staff who had finished work generously treated the group of poor colleagues from the outer section to a good meal, carrying several large bags of steaks.

Of course, punishment was inevitable. A certain audacious blonde girl once again surpassed Old Wang in the number of days she was confined, taking the top spot.

congratulations.

However, this set an example for other overseas offices that were still eating cornmeal, so the overseas offices also changed their process for giving away free copies of the magazine. After sending out more than ten copies each quarter, the rest were marked with prices and put on sale directly!

The results are great! I can even rent two suits at once for banquets!

Ah, the little happiness of a poor man...

Let's get back to the topic.

I won't go into the specifics of the project details; that's not the point. The senior official from the Ministry of Foreign Trade waved his hand, interrupting Dr. Sid's speech.

We can't say any more; the rest can only be discussed behind closed doors.

Alright, the agenda for today's meeting has been successfully completed!

As soon as he finished speaking, the remaining research leaders immediately swarmed around the little guy. Even the two military leaders who were originally acting as his "second-in-command" were pushed aside by them.

"Oh, is this the system bootloader?"

"Yes! It seems this program is responsible for loading other system files. However, I don't quite understand this IO.SYS..."

"What's your rush? Can't you see that Junior Brother is still writing?"

"Pah! You silly big cat, look there, this is clearly divided into internal commands and external commands. Engineer Jiang thought this through, making the external commands into independent executable files. Look at this jump instruction, it's only loaded into memory when it's used!"

The Fourth Ministry of Machinery Industry was involved in the electronics industry. Therefore, these bigwigs had more or less some experience with computers and could understand some basic programs.

The leaders on the podium chuckled. From the researchers' hushed conversations, they also realized that the young man seemed to be writing something extraordinary.

"Peishu, what exactly did the little guy write? It doesn't seem to match the instruction set."

"Yes! This thing doesn't seem to be very specific right now, but I have a strange feeling about its compatibility..."

Dr. Sid tilted his head and looked at it for a while, and also came to a conclusion.

Teacher Pei Shu glanced at Dr. Sid, who was quietly massaging her legs, and helped her to a seat. "If your legs aren't good, try not to stand too long! That kid made a wheelchair; I'll go get one for you later!"

"Hey! If you're not going to die, keep going."

Dr. Sid suffered from tuberculosis of the hip joint when she was young, which kept her in bed for a long time. Now she has a chronic condition that makes it difficult for her to stand for long periods of time.

"Talking nonsense!"

"What this kid wrote looks like a general-purpose operating system to me!" Teacher Peishu said after scolding his friend.

"General Motors! Do you understand?"

Dr. Xi De and Dr. Lan Ying's expertise leans more towards materials and fabrication, so it's understandable that they don't see the intricacies of Xiao Dai Mao's program. But Professor Pei Shu is different; he's a serious computer enthusiast.

Her uniquely feminine linguistic talent made her keenly aware that this thing was quite remarkable.

"Leader! Here comes the further deepening we mentioned earlier!" Teacher Peishu explained to the leader who stepped forward.

"Very important?"

“Hmm! Universal and compatible! Far ahead!” Teacher Pei Shu thought for a moment and added, “It’s like on the northern battlefield, our people were using rifles to fight against the enemy’s planes and tanks.”

"But this time it's the other way around!"

The two big shots exchanged a glance.

"In ancient times, one could compose a poem in seven steps; now, one can program on the spot. This little guy really knows how to surprise us!"

The Minister of Foreign Trade waved to the door: "Keep watch!" Then he looked at the leader of the Foreign Trade Department: "Ji Zhuang, it's Sunday today, let's act as gatekeepers for them and see what kind of amazing things they can come up with!"

"Great! Let's all be door gods today!"
