At a time when Li Xuan was spending a lot of dollars in the United States, Dongfang Electronics engineers were nervously busy with the advent of the first personal computer, ABC (Acornbestputer).

ABC is based on the original Atom computer of Aikang, but the configuration of Atom is low, only 2K RAM, 8K ROM, in order to reduce the cost of various accessories streamlined to the extreme, can only achieve the most basic performance.

After the merger of Aikang into Dongfang Electronics, Chris Currie led the R&D team to complete the prototype design of the ABC computer in only one month. Compared with the previous Atom computer, the memory configuration of the ABC computer has been greatly improved, with the memory of the basic ABC-1 being 64K and the memory of the increased ABC-2 being 112K.

The original low, medium, and high grades that Li Xuan hoped for, Curry did not finally adopt in the actual design, and if a low-end model was added, it would overlap with the Atom computers still on the market.

So Currie divided the newly developed ABC computer into two configurations: basic and improved. In addition to the memory configuration improvement, the biggest change in the ABC computer is the addition of various application interfaces, including floppy drive interface, serial interface, parallel interface, analog interface, and a dedicated interface that can expand the second processor.

Of course, the reason why ABC is developed so quickly is actually the integration of the efforts of the Hong Kong R&D team of Dongfang Electronics and the team of the British Aikang Company in the past period of time. Because the computers developed by both sides use the MOS6502 processor as the core CPU, the development results of both sides can be easily combined.

For example, the Basic language pack included in the ABC computer ROM is a slightly improved and upgraded product of the basic in the previous ATOM. The East-DOS operating system, as well as applications such as East-Word and East-Table, which have just been developed by the Hong Kong R&D team, can be applied to the new ABC computer with only minor modifications.

In addition, the ABC computer adopts many mature accessories from other companies, such as the floppy drive, which is a 5.25-inch floppy disk drive designed by WD Company (Western Digital Jù) with the WD1770 control chip that it has just developed.

These reasons have greatly shortened the research and development cycle of ABC computers.

"The colleagues in the R&D department have got the prototype out, and the next responsibility for production and manufacturing needs to be borne by us!" He Guoyuan, who was in charge of the company's operations, glanced at the other people in the conference room, and finally focused on Su Bingnan, the director of the motherboard factory who was about to be put into production.

He asked with a smile: "Su Sheng, Xuan Shao wants to make our first personal computer product officially launched in August, and strive to win a part of the student market before the start of school, the supply of the motherboard of your department is the top priority!"

"He Sheng, our motherboard factory can be put into production half a month earlier than originally planned, and it will be officially put into production at the beginning of July. We have changed our production schedule to prioritize the manufacture of computer boards. Although the initial production efficiency will be slower, 40,000 motherboards per month can still be guaranteed!"

Su Bingnan said with a calm expression that the design capacity of the motherboard factory is 50,000 motherboards per month, and he didn't dare to say too much, so he reserved a little leeway for himself. He Guoyuan nodded, and then turned his gaze to the face of Kwong Jingrong, the director of the purchasing department.

Kwong Jingrong immediately said: "He Sheng, our purchasing department has also completed preliminary negotiations with various major suppliers. Among them, the chip business such as processors and memory chips is still supplied by Seiko Epson, and the PCB board is printed by the Japanese CMK company! The display is manufactured by Lu's Electronics, and the floppy drive is supplied by the Western Digital Company of the United States! The main frame and keyboard are produced by the Singapore factory GRDS company! Finally, we have selected three electronics factories that meet the requirements in Hong Kong, and at the same time, ABC is responsible for the final assembly business for us!

With the previous experience in the production of arcade machines and Gameboy handheld computers, Dongfang Electronics' operations department has made full and meticulous arrangements for the production and manufacturing process of the new ABC computer. In addition to being responsible for the production of motherboards, Dongfang Electronics is more responsible for coordinating the timely supply of various suppliers according to the signed agreement, and then the Hong Kong foundry is responsible for the final assembly.

Of course, the first batch of ABC prototypes will undergo intensive testing for up to a month to find out the hidden small problems, and make final improvements before they are officially finalized.

"Hey, we seem to be on the same plane as the last time we came! I still have an impression of the flight attendant who was in charge of collecting the boarding pass just now, and it was her last time, she smiled with two dimples, and it is said that the girls with dimples on their faces are very lucky!" Zhuang Erjing said to Li Xuan beside him.

"Are you praising yourself for being blessed?" Li Xuan glanced at her with a smile.

"Why! I don't have dimples on my face when I laugh, have you ever looked at me seriously before!" Zhuang Erjing glanced at him.

"Why don't you smile and show me now!" Li Xuan said, suddenly reaching out and gently pinching her face.

"What's the matter, don't move your hands and feet!" Zhuang Erjing slapped his bad hand away.

"I'm kind enough to give you some blessings by hand, but you don't know the hearts of good people!"

Li Xuan smiled, and the small fist that Zhuang Erjing waved was gently caught by him, and then took the other party into his arms.

"Let go of me, be careful when I go back and sue Sù Honggu, saying that you always harass me!" Zhuang Erjing glared at him.

Li Xuan suddenly smiled wryly, unloaded the strength in his hand, and let her break free.

"Every good thing in you men, eating from the bowl and looking at the pot!" Zhuang Erjing said with a slight blush, but there was a trace of sourness in his heart.

"Who told you to be so beautiful, men's resistance to beautiful women is always very low!" Li Xuan defended himself indiscriminately.

"What are you peeking at again?" Zhuang Erjing always felt a little uncomfortable when he saw that his eyes had been scanning over him, and there was still a little evil smile on his face.

"Next time you wear a black bra, remember not to wear a white shirt, it's all exposed, isn't this deliberately tempting me to commit a crime!" Li Xuan said seriously.

"Ah, you're such a big **!" Zhuang Erjing immediately raised his hands and folded them on his chest, hurriedly turned around, and put the coat he had just taken off back on.

"Aren't you hot?" Li Xuan teased with a smile on his face.

"I want you to take care of it!" Zhuang Erjing had a hint of intoxicating blush on his face, and he hated it to death in his heart, so he simply twisted his head to the other side and looked at the runway outside the window.

Li Xuan shook his head, it is true that a man becomes bad when he is rich, he found that his resistance to this charming female assistant is getting lower and lower, is it because he has been abstinent for too long?

Thinking of his girlfriend Zhong Chuhong's coquettish ketone body that he never got tired of playing, Li Xuan felt a little hot all of a sudden, and hurriedly suppressed his thoughts. Honggu's second movie should have been filmed a long time ago, I don't know if it will be released?

Li Xuan first went to the United Kingdom during this time, and then went to the United States non-stop, but he snubbed his girlfriend a little, and he felt that he had to make up for it when he went back.
