"How is the Spring Festival going this year?"

With its geographical advantages, Shengjing Bureau is undoubtedly the most developed road bureau in China's TDCS system construction.

As a cooperative unit of the Academy of Railway Sciences, ST has played a significant role in the development of the TDCS system. Basic network technologies such as network equipment systems, video transmission, and underlying communication protocols are all developed by Xinke commissioned by the Academy of Railway Sciences.

In this way, before Tietong was stripped of the railway, it can be said that it was just a layer of skin for Xinke to enter the communication market.

While sharing benefits with the railway, it has become an obligation of Xinke to help the railway improve the TDCS system.

As a pilot of the TDCS system of the whole road, Shengjing Bureau is also the road bureau that has the closest cooperation with Xinke.

Under such background conditions, it is not surprising that Hu Wenhai will appear in the TDCS command center of the Shengjing Bureau.

The so-called TDCS system, according to the literal translation, is the whole channel mobilization command and management system.

That is, four or five years ago, the scheduling and management of trains in China was still quite primitive. Through the visual confirmation of the railway staff, and then the information is summarized by telephone or even telegram, and finally it can become a small light in the dispatch room.

In this way, if you don't want to have a railway accident, you must leave enough time for the distance between trains to react.

The ideal operating state of the railway is, of course, that the locomotives are connected one after the other to ensure that the utilization rate of the railway line can reach 100%.

But in practice, the railroad tracks are empty most of the time.

This is because, after all, the railway is not a closed system, it is constantly affected by the surrounding environment. The occurrence of various emergencies requires that the train must have a buffer distance for evacuation.

Again, the most difficult thing about a 10,000-ton train is not to get it moving, but how to stop it.

The ability to grasp the operating status of railways and trains determines the frequency of railway departures. The faster you can react to unexpected situations, the more frequent you can be.

One can imagine how inefficient it is to respond to emergencies through human observation, telephone and telegraph reporting.

Correspondingly, under such technical conditions, the frequency of departures and the utilization efficiency of the railway are not so satisfactory.

And how unsatisfactory the manual method was in the past, how shocking the TDCS system is today.

Digitalization, networking, and information technology have transformed the railway dispatching system into a complete leapfrog development for the railway system. It is rare in the history of railway technology that an investment in technology can make such a significant contribution to the operation of the railway system in such a significant way.

The railway TDCS system has a three-layer structure, the top layer is the subordinate dispatching center, then the dispatching center of the road bureau, and the lowest layer is the station system. The most important of these is the dispatching center of the road bureau. As the TDCS pilot with the largest transformation efforts, the operation status of the TDCS system is naturally the top priority of the railway system during the Spring Festival transportation this year.

Seeing that the pressure of the Spring Festival is getting bigger and bigger, it is not only Fu Zhiheng who is squatting in the TDCS dispatch center in black and white. Even the current minister of the Ministry of Railways personally visited the Shengjing Bureau to observe whether the TDCS system should be promoted throughout the road.

In this way, as one of the development partners of the TDCS system of the Ministry of Railways, Xinke must also show sufficient attention. Not only did the Academy of Sciences send a capable maintenance team, but even Hu Wenhai himself personally met with the minister.

Of course, the Minister of Railways' work is full of opportunities - because China Railway Construction Investment and Tietong want to divest the railway system, and there are different views on the use of railway bonds, No. 10 Fuxing Road and No. 2 Fuyou Street are in full swing.

Hu Wenhai, as a party with vested interests that will not suffer no matter what, also needs to consider some issues of avoiding suspicion.

So in a joyful atmosphere outside, he hid directly in the dispatch center of the Shengjing Bureau, and chatted with Fu Zhiheng with and without a match.

Fu Zhiheng, who had two big bags under his eyes, looked like he was in good spirits. He stood in front of the railing on the second floor of the dispatch hall, looked down at the entire dispatch center with great interest, and introduced his masterpiece to Hu Wenhai with great excitement.

"The TDCS system is a truly real-time, centralized, and transparent command system, which is a change that we could not have imagined ten years ago. ”

"All of its information is automatically generated, eliminating errors caused by human error. The train timetable is automatically drawn, the meter is automatically crossed, and the driving log is automatically generated, which not only reduces the labor intensity of the staff, but also directly increases our ability to control risks. In the same time, we only dared to run one train in the past, but now we only need to build such a TDCS system, and the departure density will immediately increase significantly, and the transportation capacity will naturally be improved. ”

"According to our hardware configuration, it was absolutely impossible to imagine a social project to deal with such a large-scale migration of people as the Spring Festival in the past. However, with the help of the TDCS system, there is no need to change trains, carriages, or increase the number of employees, just by changing the way information is transmitted, everything is possible. ”

Speaking of this, Fu Zhiheng closed his eyes lightly and sighed: "In the eyes of us old railways, it's like magic." ”

"This is just the beginning of the changes that information technology has made to society. In the future, the operation mode of the entire human society will be drastically changed due to the change in the way information is disseminated. ”

Hu Wenhai leaned on the railing with his arm, looked down at the dispatch center staff who were busy coming in and out like worker ants, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile. In such a magnificent scenery, there is also a credit to him!

On the entire wall of the dispatch center is a real-time train schedule with a high-lumen projector on the screen. In the entire railway area under the jurisdiction of the Shengjing Bureau, the location, status, and various detailed information of each train are clearly marked on this entire wall. In order to complete this project, the dispatch center even equipped a graphics server room for the projector array.

And on the opposite corner of this wall is another "monitor wall". It is the real-time monitoring screen of key sections of the railway line in the management area of the Shengjing Bureau. Including tunnels, bridges, intersections, hubs, stations and other key locations, any accidents and dangers in these locations, the dispatch center can be found at the first time.

In the central office area, surrounded by these two walls, rows of tightly encapsulated, purpose-built computers – the railway system is strategically located, and the dispatch center is designed to be resistant to damage in wartime. This is the working area of the staff of the dispatch center, through which the stations and trains of the entire Shengjing Bureau can be managed and commanded, and the scheduling plan generated by the program can be adjusted.

Looking down at these neat and sophisticated machines, it's hard not to feel a sense of pride. Compared with any physical enjoyment, this sense of spiritual accomplishment is a pleasure stimulation that is more easily intoxicating and addictive.

At this time, it is difficult for human beings to imagine what it would be like when such information transmission efficiency was spread to the whole society. For some pioneers, just such a dispatch center is already full of romantic science fiction.

Fu Zhiheng nodded heavily, and was deeply convinced of Hu Wenhai's conclusion: "I really hope to see that scene sooner." ”

"Director Fu can rest assured. Hu Wenhai said confidently: "The speed at which these changes come will be beyond everyone's imagination." ”

"Oh, I forgot to congratulate Director Fu. ”

Hu Wenhai smiled mysteriously, blinked and said, "According to the grapevine, Director Fu is likely to be promoted one step higher this year?"

Fu Zhiheng was slightly stunned, and then waved his hand with a wry smile: "The matter has not landed, Mr. Hu should not take it too seriously." ”

Fu Zhiheng is already a member of the party group now, and he doesn't need to ask if he takes another step, so he will naturally win the position of minister. However, after all, it is the Minister of Railways, and as long as the dust does not settle for a day, it is full of variables.

However, Fu Zhiheng's achievements over the years are obvious to all, and it should be said that he is nine out of ten stable for this position. The difference lies in whether this time or the next time, one day you will have to get to that position.

Before that, he has to show some breezy gestures.

"No, seriously, I hope that Fu Ju will be able to take another step this time. ”

"After so many years, my friendship with the Fu Bureau and the railway system, whether our cooperation is pleasant or not, should be regarded as obvious to all, right? I hope that the Fu Bureau can get my wish this time, because I need you, the railway system, and the country's help. ”

Hu Wenhai spread out his hands and said seriously: "Fu Ju probably also knows about my little things abroad. Although the USSR collapsed, I was in Ukraine - ahem, and some influence. China's economic development must open up routes to Europe, and in addition to sea routes, land routes are also indispensable. ”

"The traditional Eurasian Railway takes the northern route of Russia, and I think the problem of this route should be very clear. Geography, transport volumes, geopolitics and many things have an impact on it, and Russia is not a good partner either. Maozi is always wary of us, and we can't stand their expansiveness. ”

"Ukraine is a good bridgehead to Europe, and we have just established diplomatic relations with Kazakhstan. ”

Hu Wenhai stared at Fu Zhiheng's eyes: "What do I want to say, Fu Ju should also be clear, right?"
