Chapter 451: Yes, I Did It On Purpose
"What do you think...... Maybe?" asked Vice Minister Huang again after a long time.
asked this sentence, it's not that he doesn't believe it, in fact, Vice Prime Minister Huang already believes it in his heart, but he thinks it's too incredible: this kind of situation seems like a fantasy...... Will it really appear?
Chen Geng smiled and said: "In this technological change, there are two core key points, one is network technology, the other is a personal computer that is cheap enough and simple to operate, and now, network technology has been available, although it has not been civilized, but the United States has built its own military network and scientific research and academic network ......"
The vice minister nodded again and again, feeling that what Chen Geng said was simply right, and at this moment, he coldly heard Chen Geng say that the United States had actually built a second network for scientific research and academic research after the military network, and he suddenly felt excited, and hurriedly asked: "Xiao Chen, wait a while, what is the matter with this scientific research and academic network you are talking about?"
Chen Geng was a little surprised, but he still explained to Vice Minister Huang: "Oh, this network is funded by the National Science Foundation of the United States, so it is also called the NSF network, and the original design of the NSF network is to allow this network to connect five supercomputer centers across the United States, so that more than 100 American universities can share their resources." β
β......β
Vice Prime Minister Huang was silent, and although he did not speak, he could already realize the power of this NSF network from Chen Geng's few words: Resource sharing! If domestic institutions of higher learning can share each other's educational resources through the network, what a terrible thing it would be to raise the level of national education? Is the United States already so powerful?
Chen Geng continued: "In addition, in 78 years, Bell Labs in the United States proposed UNIX and UNIX copy protocol, which is also called UUCP, and then the Americans developed a newsgroup network system on the basis ......of UUCP."
"Xiao Chen, what's going on with this newsgroup?"
"A newsgroup is a discussion group that focuses on a topic and can be discussed and communicated by all computers connected together around the world. β
β......β
Vice Minister Huang pondered again and didn't speak, but unlike just now, the reason why he didn't speak this time was that he was really shocked and didn't know what to say: God! The United States has actually developed to such an extent in terms of network technology?
Previously, he was still skeptical that Chen Geng's network technology would soon be applied to the civilian field from the military field, but now that he is looking at it, hasn't this begun to shift from military to civilian?
He didn't suspect that Chen Geng was lying, didn't he see that his secretary was working hard there to make records, if he was looking for a needle in a haystack to collect information, of course it would be troublesome, but if there was a targeted way to collect information, it would be much more convenient.
At this point, Vice Minister Huang has begun to believe what Chen Geng said, in the United States, the next network technology will really be like the civilian field began to develop and popularize.
After pondering for a moment, Vice Minister Huang casually raised his head, and suddenly saw that Chen Geng had stopped, and immediately became a little anxious: How can you stop? The more he is in a high position, the more he understands the importance of Chen Geng's information to the country and the nation, and hurriedly said: "Well, Xiao Chen, you go on." β
As he spoke, he personally helped Chen Geng add a shrimp ball.
Chen Geng smiled.
He is not stupid, of course he can see the meaning of Huang Vice Minister's "stealing teachers", but this is actually what Chen Geng wants to see: "There is also a necessary condition for the formation of such a network covering all aspects of society, that is, a personal computer that is easy enough to operate, cheap enough, can be bought by users without much cost, and can meet the diverse needs of users."
I can tell you a statistic: the best-selling personal computer products in the personal computer market in the United States today are IBM's 5100 and 5120, and Apple's apple-I and apple-II, which account for 80% of the world's total personal computer sales.
But you may not be very clear, after the advent of our company's 'CP/M+'Windows'++trackball' operating system, because of the revolutionary changes brought about by the operation mode, the difficulty of users operating the computer has been greatly reduced, and users no longer need to remember hundreds and thousands of cumbersome passwords, and they need to operate the trackball with two clicks, and the result is that after the advent of our 'CP/M+'Windows' + trackball' operating system combination, IBM5120 and appleβ II's sales in one year exceeded the previous three years combined!
Within a year of the advent of the 'CP/M+'Windows+'trackball' operating system, total shipments of personal computer products in the U.S. more than doubled compared to the previous three years!
Based on this, we believe that the development of human computer technology and the development of network technology have reached a critical point, and the reason why I decided to launch the personal computer project is also based on this ......"
I can't describe the mood in Huang Vice Minister's heart at this moment, shocked, emotional, emotional, and mixed......
But in these emotions, more is rejoicing!
Fortunately, Chen Geng is a Chinese, and fortunately Chen Geng's heart is on the side of the Chinese nation.
Although Chen Geng didn't say anything, Vice Minister Huang understood in his heart that Chen Geng was clearly taking this opportunity to remind Huaxia that it is necessary to attach importance to the development of computer technology and network technology, and you must know that the data he revealed are the core secrets of the relevant fields in the United States. But now, he said it so lightly.
Hey......
Until this time. Only then did Vice Minister Huang realize that he had been led astray by Chen Geng, but the corners of his mouth showed a slight smile: It's biased?
However, if it is biased, it is biased, and since it is biased, it is serious to turn back, network technology and personal computers are in the next few years, but the display is a matter of imminence......
"It's really better to listen to your words than to read a book for ten years!" After a while, Vice Minister Huang let out a long breath.
Chen Geng smiled and said, "You're polite." β
You're welcome?
As soon as Chen Geng's words came out of his natural words, Deputy Prime Minister Huang and the secretary of the temporary part-time stenographer were all stunned, especially his accompanying secretary, his eyebrows were raised: he has been with the chief for so many years, and he has never seen anyone dare to be so disrespectful in front of the chief!
Fortunately, he finally understood that Chen Geng's identity was different from ordinary people, and although he was extremely dissatisfied with Chen Geng in his heart, he did not speak.
Vice Prime Minister Huang reacted at once after the initial stunned: Chen Geng cannot be regarded as those old fritters who have been mixed in officialdom for decades in China. Chen Geng grew up in the United States and is accustomed to the American way of speaking and logic, and if he speaks to him in the language of domestic officialdom, it may cause a lot of misunderstandings.
Well, try to be as straightforward as possible.
glared at his secretary first, and the smile on his face was even better: "Xiao Chen, I have to thank you for the country, and the people of Huaxia, I understand, what you just said is a treasure that cannot be changed!"
Chen Geng smiled and waved his hand: "Although I am a wanderer living overseas, no one wants his motherland to become stronger than us overseas travelers." β
This is to admit that what I just said was not unintentionally leaked, but deliberately said it to you...... In a word, you have to accept my affection.
Vice Minister Huang couldn't help laughing: How could he not see Chen Geng's little cunning skills?
After a brief pause, Vice Huang smiled and said again: "In our country, we actually attach great importance to the development of computer technology, but Xiao Chen, you have also seen that the foundation of our country is still very thin, so ...... Do you really think that computer CRT has a lot to offer and can bring a lot of foreign exchange earnings to the country?"
Chen Geng knew the country's hunger for foreign exchange during this period, but he never expected that today in 1981, the country's hunger and thirst for foreign exchange reached such an urgent level.
Chen Geng didn't believe it before, but now, he believes it, because this is what is happening alive in front of his eyes -- China in this era is really about to go crazy and poor, but in this case, that old man actually planned the development path for China in the next half century, and until the first fifteen years of the next century, history has been advancing according to his calculations, what kind of earth-shattering talent is this? How fortunate is Huaxia to meet such great men one after another after 300 years of indulging in darkness?
At this moment, he really felt the weight on his shoulders, as if something remarkable had fallen on his shoulders.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Geng's tone was unprecedentedly solemn: "Mr. Huang, I said before that in the next 10 years, our company's demand for picture tubes will exceed 10 million units, and I believe you already know it." β
Deputy Prime Minister Huang nodded, of course he already knew, if he didn't already know, how could there be this conversation with Chen Geng? Now, he was very curious about what Chen Geng would say.
"So what if I told you that 10 million units is the most conservative number, and a slightly more optimistic estimate is 15 million color displays over 14 inches?"
Another meaning of Chen Geng's remarks is: Have you calculated how much foreign exchange income this will bring to Huaxia?
