Chapter 315: Memory Fragments Out of Sync

In China in the 1980s, although quality management and standardization construction were still very backward, Gu Biao's proposal of "setting up a company with a separate process design link" was a top-level design that absolutely optimized the quality of electronic products.

Even in the electronics industry, which is now the world's first, this kind of mechanism has not yet begun to appear - this is not because I didn't expect it, but because the global electronics industry has not yet entered the climax, the designers are used to using the local workers, and they can achieve okay results without spending this kind of work, so they are too lazy to build a system.

The evolution of human beings is the need of the environment, and the evolution of companies and businesses is the same.

I believe that one day if the Chinese move the electronics factory to India and train the cheap workers of Ah San to almost reluctantly, then they will definitely be able to sum up more valuable training management experience and system construction.

The hard work in this is not something that can be decided by holding a few meetings and patting your brain.

From product planning, to follow-up support, and independent process design, Gu Biao stayed in San Francisco for ten days.

There were many meetings, and I personally talked with everyone in the technical department, personally inspected their working environment, and communicated on the spot alone......

I was busy until the end of July, and it was only after I developed Tiankun Entertainment that it was so far, and the accumulated hidden dangers were dealt with.

The business has reached the deep waters, and after removing the Atari, there are no more soft bones to gnaw.

Guo Taiming stayed for about four or five days, and felt that he had learned a lot, so he was busy going back to Shenzhen City and practicing his Hon Hai precision.

Han Ting stayed for a while longer, and stayed with Gu Biao until the last few days in San Francisco.

In the past few days, she has gained a lot, more than anyone else, whether it is knowledge, three views, or psychology and physiology, she has a sense of vitality that has been refreshed and reborn.

……

Days in the U.S. are numbered.

After dealing with the business troubles accumulated by Tiankun Entertainment, Gu Biao has to go back to the country.

Declare with the relevant departments to hold the "First Industry Standard Formulation Meeting of the Electromagnetic Compatibility Branch of the IEC Society" in China.

Seeing that it is about to be August, according to the speed of domestic preparation and the solemnity of the preparation of "not wanting to lose face in front of foreigners", it is estimated that the eleventh schedule will not be able to catch up.

It would be nice to be able to hold the meeting after the long Christmas-New Year's Day holiday for foreigners.

Time waits for no man.

Han Ting also knew Gu Biao's arrangement, so she had been accompanying him to meetings and discussions, hoping to return to China with him.

Another night, Gu Biao was in the hotel room, holding a Wang An brand PS word processing computer, crackling and skillfully typing the manuscript.

Wang An's computer now has a relatively good reputation in the United States, at least in the "feature machine" is very eye-catching, single paper word processing work, is the best among all computers in the United States.

Therefore, Gu Biao and Han Ting now work in the United States, and they will use Wang An's computer, which is convenient.

According to the original history, Wang An's brand still has three or four years of rise and peak stability, until about 86 years, the physical performance of the computer is further powerful, a single "feature machine" road is no longer easy to walk, and then it turns into decline - there are many mistakes in Wang An's computer's own management and R&D transformation, but the road of "feature machine" itself will inevitably die, and it is also the trend of the times.

These are all later words, and I will mention them later.

Han Ting was not as busy as Gu Biao, so she helped Gu Biao get hot drinks and occasionally rubbed her temples when she had a little free time, and glanced at his articles a few times by the way.

"Are you writing a monograph assigned by Kissinger?" After all, Han Ting also came out of the Foreign Affairs Academy, and she is still quite familiar with this bank, and after reading it for a while, she can understand what Gu Biao is writing.

What is displayed on the screen is still part of the content of the first chapter of "On China", which is relatively shallow and has more historical content.

It mainly analyzes the history of tributary trade in ancient China, and analyzes what the goals and priorities of China's foreign exchanges are and what interests they care about.

In another time and space, Kissinger's "On China" has more than 20 chapters, but because it was written in advance, it is impossible to write too much about the game of Sino-US relations after the collapse of the Soviet Union, and it can only be used as a deduction hypothesis to demonstrate, so the length of the whole book is two or three percent shorter, and only 15 chapters remain.

Kissinger still has other academic topics that he has not yet completed, and he basically writes a chapter every month, and by the time he retires in early '84, he will be able to finish it.

As long as Gu Biao guarantees that he submits a manuscript to his mentor once a month, and that the work of checking materials and finding arguments assigned to him is completed, and his views are self-consistent, Kissinger will also herd sheep for him.

Kissinger is also a human being, and he knows that Gu Biao is already a tycoon with a net worth of more than 200 million US dollars, how can he really be mixed with Georgetown full-time to study and do research behind closed doors.

As long as the minimum two-year doctorate is enough and the academic achievements are worthy of face, he will be allowed to get a doctorate.

In fact, if Kissinger could decide for himself, it would have been much simpler. At this rate, Georgetown University's face is fully considered.

"You have to submit the manuscript at least once a month and keep a record of the exhibition, otherwise it will be too arrogant and it will not be good if you don't give face to the school. It's almost done, don't worry. Gu Biao tapped the keyboard neatly, while quickly shaking Han Ting's hand on his shoulder, signaling to be calm.

"Young people are fast learners, and when you type on a computer, the speed is the same as flying. Alas, I used to learn foreign languages quite quickly, but now I can't learn to type. Han Ting complained in amazement, as if lamenting that her most youthful and energetic years of rapid learning had passed.

"The skill of typing is not valuable, it is only at the operational level. After more than ten years, elementary school students can play very quickly. No other, but familiar. Gu Biao naturally said that there was no hypocrisy.

Han Ting could hear that every word Gu Biao said was sincere, and it was by no means the kind of pretentiousness of "secretly reviewing before the exam, but telling people in school that I was done playing games and didn't read yesterday".

It made her feel a lot better.

"You kid......" she sighed with a complicated expression.

"I'm done, I'll take it out and print it out and send it to the professor tomorrow morning. Gu Biao finally called it a day, and then quickly tinkered for a while, archiving the document in the floppy disk, shutting it down, and exiting the floppy disk.

Don't think it's strange that Wang An's computer in this year uses floppy disks to store files - and it can only use floppy disks, because it has no hard disk at all, and even some system files have to be installed in floppy disks, and there are only some BIOS program-based programs in the memory on the motherboard.

Maybe the post-95 generation has never seen a floppy disk and doesn't know what it is. China's post-80s generation is no stranger to floppy disks when they were young, but they are limited to 3.5-inch floppy disks.

At present, all the computers used are still 5.25-inch floppy disks with a larger size and a smaller capacity.

For example, what Gu Biao now uses to store papers and monographs is this kind of 5.25-inch one.

The world's first 3.5-inch floppy disk with a capacity of 1.44MB was invented by Sony in a laboratory 18 months ago. But mainstream PC manufacturers don't buy it and don't want to upgrade their technical standards. So much so that the history of this technology should have been in the dust in the laboratory for six years.

In the end, it was Akio Morita who begged his grandfather to tell his grandmother, and after a lot of favors, he went directly to the upper level of IBM CEO John Ex, and persuaded IBM to use Sony's floppy drive standard when developing a new generation of PCs, and finally made Sony's 3.5-inch floppy drive/floppy disk standard see the light of day in early 87.

Oh, and as an aside, this John Ecks was CEO of IBM for nine years from '85 to '93.

Another anecdote from his time as CEO was that he was persuaded by a former colleague, Mary Gates, to allow her son, Bill Gates' company, to bid for IBM's operating system for a new generation of PCs.

Then came the DOS operating system, and Microsoft's official take-off. (Of course, even if John Ekers doesn't use Microsoft to develop DOS, there will be others who will develop DOS, and there will always be an American system vendor that will rise as a result.)

Gu Biao took the floppy disk, which was a little bigger than a 5-inch pizza, handed it to his secretary, and asked her to take it to the company tomorrow to print it out, and then mail it to Kissinger with the floppy disk and the manuscript.

……

"After writing, do you want to play again in the United States, or just go back to China?" Gu Biao, who was busy with everything, lay on the bed with his head upside down.

"Let's go back to China, it's important to get down to business. Anyway, what's so nice about the scenery. ”

As she spoke, Han Ting took out a bottle of eye drops with a cool and eye-catching formula, knelt on the bed, and carefully dripped Gu Biao, who had just finished working hard and was lying there.

There were no LCD monitors in the 80s. The computer is used, and it is a CRT with a big bulge on its back, not to mention how high the radiation is.

After typing for a few hours, my eyes will be sore, swollen and painful.

Gu Biao was originally closing his eyes to recuperate, but Han Ting forcibly opened his eyelids and poured eye drops, which inevitably caused a burst of tears, and then he could only close his eyes for a while, unable to open them.

He couldn't see for at least a few minutes, and he completely lost the ability to resist.

Feel a little warm and wet in the dark.

"Isn't it too fast? I can't see anything like this...... lying down," Gu Biao muttered vaguely, a sense of irreverent guilt rose.

In front of Han Ting, he has always been very respectful and restrained, and he has never played tricks.

"Don't speak. If you don't want me to feel ashamed, just be quiet!" Han Ting's voice was low, but firm and unquestionable.

Gu Biao was directly aroused with a slight sense of guilt: "Actually, you are already so rich, don't you feel wronged to make do with a man like me with two women." ”

"What's wronged, do you think those rich women in Xiangjiang spent money and found single-minded? I don't know how many women I have served. You're not as handsome as the professionals at best, but you're cleaner and more masculine than them, and you're capable and masculine, and I have nothing to lose. ”

Gu Wei was stunned, thinking about it like this, it seemed quite reasonable.

He was so stupid that he once persuaded Han Ting to find another way to live a good life...... Now that I think about it, as long as Han Ting didn't plan to remarry, those words would be really harmful.

To be a man is still to be simple and decisive.
