Cao Changjiu suddenly felt that there was no place to put his hands: "The director of the Institute of Computing of the Chinese Academy of Sciences seems to be studying computers." ”

Wang Suo nodded: "Yes, it should be researching the latest computer technology." China's computer technology started in the 50s and lagged behind the West by many years. After the guidance of the leader, a large number of seniors are self-reliant and hard-working to catch up, and they are almost about to catch up. However, no matter how difficult the fortunes of the country are, how many heroes have died in the past ten years of catastrophe, and now China's computer technology is still at least ten years behind the West. ”

"The role of computer technology in social development and national defense is becoming more and more important, and the great powers are vying to study it. As you probably know, the computers developed by the US imperialists have exceeded 100 million floating points per second, leaving other countries far behind. Its industry is developed, and with the help of computers, it is even more powerful, and several of their major projects at the national level cannot succeed without computers. Therefore, more and more people of insight have realized the role of computers in promoting the development of modern society. ”

Cao Changjiu cautiously interjected: "That's why Huaxia set up a computing institute to try to use the power of the state to improve my country's computer technology level, right?"

Wang Suo: "Yes, Huaxia needs a high-speed computer, and the country can't wait for it." The computer we have built has not exceeded 10 million times per second at the earliest, which has to be said to be a pity. ”

Cao Changjiu: "Then why don't we gather the manpower and material resources of the whole country to develop the atomic bomb as we did in the past, and there will definitely be achievements in less than two years." ”

Wang Suo smiled bitterly: "The era is different, and the pursuit is different." There are more than 10 million talented people in China, and it is not easy to unify them, not to mention that since ancient times, literati have been inferior to each other and there are many factions. If nothing else, the standards for optoelectronic components are different in Beijing and Shanghai, and you say how to integrate. Moreover, computer development is no better than others, and it is useless to have more people, and an experienced and uninterrupted and stable R&D team is what we need. It's just a pity that we have exhausted all means, but for various reasons, we have never succeeded in breaking through this hurdle thousands of times. ”

Cao Changjiu: "Uncle Wang, what do you want to say, why do I get more confused the more I listen." ”

Wang Suo patted his head: "It seems to be off-topic, Uncle Wang is now leading a team, just to break through this hurdle." I'm wondering if I'll let you join in, and I'm afraid I'll miss your future. You're too young to get a better education. ”

Cao Changjiu suddenly realized, it turned out to be this thing, and he couldn't ask for it: "Uncle Wang, I am willing to join, you have also heard what I said, being a computer makes me my favorite, I will only do this, I just want to do this." It is the duty of our young people to devote themselves to the places where the motherland is most needed, let alone my favorite field. Uncle Wang, you don't have to hesitate, let me join. ”

Uncle Wang touched his head lovingly: "You are still a child, but you seem to be a computer elf, God asked you to come." Uncle Wang is getting older, and in the past few years, he has also felt that his body is not as good as before, and it will be your world in the future. ”

Cao Changchang couldn't help but be overjoyed: "You accepted me? Great, thank you, teacher." ”

Wang Suo laughed: "I didn't expect that I would accept a smart apprentice when I got old." ”

Cao Changjiu: "Uncle Wang, what research is your team doing now, tell me about it." ”

Wang: "The current project is still in the pre-research stage, we call it the 757 project. ”

Cao Changchang felt that he had a vague impression that the 757 project seemed to be the first supercomputer project in China to be launched hundreds of millions of times in China, and there had been tens of millions of prototypes per second, all of which were domestic components, and then I don't know why the follow-up was suddenly weak, and there was no movement for a long time, and finally a semi-finished product was developed in 83 years.

In the same year, the Galaxy I of the National Defense Science and Technology University was successfully developed, and a large number of halos shrouded its body, and its excellent performance concealed the fact that most of its imported components were used, while the 757 machine was quickly submerged in the long river of history due to insufficient performance.

Cao Changjiu once wondered why the 757 project produced tens of millions of prototypes, and the final product performance was not as good as the prototype.

Looking at Wang Suo's tired eyes again, Cao Changjiu suddenly had a thought, it wouldn't be ......

It won't be like this, I thought for a long time. He shook his head, trying to shake off that terrible thought: "Uncle Wang, how old are you. ”

Wang Suo was stunned: "Sixty-six, what's wrong?"

Cao Changchang smiled and said, "You are not too young, take care of your body, you can't be too tired from work." ”

Wang Suo smiled: "My health is not bad, I can work for another twenty years, even if I retire, there are still you, hehe." ”

Cao Changjiu: "That's that, so that you are still busy on the front line at such an age, I can only say that we juniors are useless and can't afford to carry the burden." ”

Hearing this, Wang Suo looked at Cao Changjiu, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, yes, he can't rest assured that he has been working on the project all these years, and he has done everything himself, although there are many people who do things under him, but there is no one who can take charge of the general. Could it be that all these years of hard work have been in vain? Thinking about it, I can't help but be stupid.

Cao Chang saw that Wang was distracted, and he called several times but did not respond, so he had to grab his hand and shake it.

Wang Suo came back to his senses and said, "People are old, and they can't concentrate, where did we just go?"

Cao Changjiu: "You said that the 757 project is in the pre-research, what kind of project is Uncle Wang's 757, it seems so mysterious to hear the code name." ”

Wang Suo: "There is nothing mysterious, the project was established in July 75, so it was codenamed Project 757, and the goal was to develop Huaxia's own 100 million supercomputers to support socialist construction." ”

Cao Changchang said with a smile: "In this way, our country will soon have hundreds of millions of giant machines." ”

Wang shook his head: "It's not that simple, our last project was the 013 mainframe computer, which has been successfully developed." When the 757 project was officially established, we decided to continue the system architecture of 013, which can avoid R&D risks. But what we didn't expect at all was the emergence of Cray-1, with its advanced vector system architecture, surpassing all speeds, and relatively low cost, which humiliated our 013 machine improvement plan. ”

Chang asked, "So we're going to turn everything upside down and start all over again?"

Wang Suo: "Yes, the country decided to make the 757 machine compatible with Cray-1, after all, we have to admit that there is a gap between us and the West, and we must catch up if we are lagging behind, and there is no shame in learning." ”

Cao Changjiu suddenly thought of one thing: "Didn't the US imperialists block their own computer technology very tightly? How can we be compatible with it, it seems that we need to know a lot of technology." ”

Wang said with a smile: "Cray-1 is a commercial computer, and besides, there is no impermeable wall in the world, hehe." ”

Yesterday I drank again, guilty of sin, here I would like to ask you a question, the development of the 757 in the long term must be involved in the development of the 757, and then what? Is it to let him go abroad for further study or stay in China to struggle? Staying in China is my idea, I want him to feel the cruelty of reality, let him feel pain, despair, and suddenly survive in despair, what?

It seems to be easier to go abroad and then compete with the big companies that are amazing? It seems too smooth, a bit of a cheating feeling, I don't like it very much. Dear book friends, do you say pinch?
