The structure of a computer system is basically the same. Whether it is a desktop, a notebook, or a PAD or even a microcontroller, it always needs to be composed of a central processing unit, memory, and a series of external devices.

But in addition to hardware, in order for a computer to run, it must also have software support. Without an operating system, computers are just a pile of scrap metal. Without application software, the operating system can't do anything. Without supporting software, the computer cannot connect the application software to the operating system.

Therefore, the entire computer system is by no means sufficient with one CPU. The computer system based on the SPARC processor that Lu Ge refers to refers to is the complete set of hardware and software systems.

After all, SPARC is a relatively unpopular CPU, and its computer system will be studied by fewer people. Even if the Panhan Group produces such a purely domestic CPU, but there is no supporting system, I am afraid it is not very attractive. After all, no matter how backward the domestic technology is, at least the computer system of the 8086 system is relatively thorough.

The domestic design capability Pentium series can't do it, but there is no problem in designing a 10MHz 286 level CPU. Hard work, 33MHz 386 level CPU, maybe it can be achieved.

What is lacking in China is a high-performance CPU that can catch up with the international level. Intel's latest generation of PentimuPro version of the CPU launched in 1996 has an internal clock frequency of 133MHz. Without a high-performance CPU, it is properly crushed in electronic countermeasures.

And with this level of CPU design and manufacturing, the current gap between China and the United States is not narrowing. It's constantly being expanded.

Of course, Zhou Shuo also understands this truth, and his development of SPARC processors is certainly not for fun. The whole computer system must be taken into account.

"Colonel Lu, say something that doesn't sound very good." Zhou Shuo thought for a moment. Or decided to tell the truth: "The Chinese army is so poor, and the cost of developing a complete set of computer systems based on SPARC processors will be very high, so high that you can't afford it." ”

Zhou Shuo is telling the truth: Since the beginning of the great disarmament, national defense spending has to make way for economic construction. In 1996, China's military spending as a percentage of GDP was 1.01 percent, the lowest point in the history of the founding of the People's Republic of China, with only 72 billion yuan. What is this concept? Except for the money that had to be spent on raising soldiers, there was basically nothing that could be done.

Of course, this is a special situation, a special time. By 2013, China's defense spending was more than 700 billion yuan, and the proportion of GDP was only 1.26%. It is still not comparable to the proportion of GDP in the world that generally accounts for 2% of GDP and Americans account for 4% of GDP.

But in any case, 1996 was indeed the poorest year for the PLA.

Seeing that Lu Ge nodded wordlessly, Zhou Shuo sighed and said, "So my opinion is that it is better for the troops to directly purchase complete sets of computer systems, rather than committing to self-research and development as much as possible." Although we are a private company, there should be no problem with the reliability of the government, right? Doesn't it mean that the No. 1 chief, Minister Hu of the Ministry of Electronics Industry, can even leave the lithography machine production line that is important to us in our hands? ”

Lu Ge before finding the Pan Han Group. Of course, I have studied this enterprise carefully. If it weren't for the fact that there was no problem with the political trial, he wouldn't be here.

"Mr. Zhou has any ideas, although my level is not high, the C3I project is the top priority of national defense construction. Since we can find Pan Han Group. Naturally, I can trust you. ”

"Okay, then I'll be straight to the point." Zhou Shuo clapped his hands and said simply: "Please C3I project team, no." I even ask the leaders of the General Logistics Department, the General Staff Department, and the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense to consider whether it is possible to hand over the entire military computer system to our Panhan Group. ”

"This ......"

Lu Ge was stunned. He really didn't expect that Zhou Shuo's appetite would be so big.

Now is the time for the e-office to be on the rise. The government implements it in government agencies, state-owned enterprises, and public institutions, and the military also implements it in its own system.

However, at present, China basically does not have the production capacity of desktop computer systems, and the main components such as CPU, memory, and hard disk are all imported, and the operating system used is either DOS or windows.

This kind of situation of putting one's own information lifeline under the hands of others is not without people of insight who have questioned it. First, all the products are imported, and can the supply still be guaranteed in wartime? Second, is there a backdoor for these imported products? Can you keep important information safe?

But after all, the form is stronger than the person, and China only has the choice of using and not using it, but there is no choice of what to use. No, China will be completely defeated in the information war. If it is used, China will face the embarrassment of having its information lifeline in the hands of manpower.

Therefore, if a completely autonomous computer system for Chinese can be provided, it will really be a blessing for the entire Chinese army. If this system is researched by the military system itself, then it is not said that even if it is only a fraction of the performance of the Americans, they will use their own people if they grit their teeth.

But now it's the Pan Han Group, a private company, that says it. Don't look at it and say that "the biggest cent is my turtle", but with the courage to hand over military products, especially key military products, to private enterprises, China really does not have the courage to learn from the Americans.

"Hehe, I know it's a tough decision. Moreover, such a decision-making colonel should not have this power. ”

Zhou Shuo smiled, Lu Ge is just a colonel, and if he is put in the field army, he may be the supervisor of thousands of people, and a regiment commander or deputy division commander can't run. However, he may not even have the right to speak on the selection of important equipment for the whole army's informationization construction.

"But I just happen to have something here that should interest Colonel Lu and do a job of uploading and disseminating, you should be fine, right?"

"That's no problem, it's my job to help leaders collect and sort out information, but I don't know what products Mr. Zhou can come up with?" Lu Ge is also a little curious, it is not wrong for Panhan Group to say that it is the tip of the pyramid in the field of microelectronics in China, and the accumulation may not be as deep as the domestic research institute in terms of technology, but the high-precision Cheng Dù is the absolute first group.

"This may not be clear, let's go see the real thing."

Zhou Shuo raised his eyebrows a little proudly, stood up with a smile and opened the door of the office. Lu Ge and the two put on the big cap that was placed on the side, glanced at each other, and walked out behind him.

Seeing that Zhou Shuo was driving a Santana, both of them were a little surprised. Although there are not many luxury cars imported in China, many are smuggled from the south. It is not strange for a wealthy man in the south to drive a luxury car with a special license plate, but the car of the boss of the dignified Fanhan Group is only a Santana, which makes Lu Ge look a little different.

The car departed from the headquarters of the Pan Han Group and drove to the city in more than ten minutes. Along the way, Zhou Shuo casually introduced some famous scenery of the embroidery city, and the time passed quickly.

In fact, it's not really Zhou Shuo who is so simple, he has to pick a Santana to show that he doesn't advocate enjoyment. It's today's car, not to mention the entry Sanjie Jetta Fukang Santana, even if the Audi 100 and Toyota Crown are good cars, it is really a little impossible to get into his eyes. The interior shape, handling feel, on-board electronics, and even ergonomic seats of the car, a luxury car of 350,000 yuan cannot compare to a mid-range car of more than 100,000 yuan 20 years later.

If you take out those luxury cars twenty years later, you can simply dazzle the eyes of the nineties. Zhou Shuo felt that what could catch his eye in this era was the sports car in Thunderbolt Ranger......

Anyway, no matter how good the car is, it can't meet his needs, so Zhou Shuo didn't pick it so much, and just found a Santana to travel. Speaking of which, this can be regarded as once the sea was difficult to water, except for Wushan is not a cloud, right? After the appetite is raised, it can't be reduced no matter what.

Zhou Shuo drove the car, Lu Ge sat in the co-pilot's seat, and turned around to a secluded street in Xiucheng City.

"This is the martyrs' cemetery of our embroidery city, which is buried with the martyrs who sacrificed their lives in the liberation of embroidery city. Where do you look, it is the bronze statue of Liang Shiying, the liberation hero of our embroidered city. It is 6 meters tall and weighs 18 tons! Our support for the People's Liberation Army has a historical tradition! ”

Hearing Zhou Shuo's introduction, Lu Ge and the soldiers in the back seat solemnly saluted to the martyrs' cemetery. Looking through the fence around the martyr's cemetery, there are rows of pines and cypresses, and a tall and mighty bronze statue of a PLA soldier stands in the middle of the park. The two of them silently calculated, this big bronze man is probably as tall as a seven-story building if the base is counted. The 18-ton bronze statue is really shocking.

Speaking of Liang Shiying, maybe people in other cities don't know much. But in Xiucheng, his deeds are well-known. During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, Huang Jiguang sacrificed himself to block the eye-catching, and he was a famous hero in the country. And Liang Shiying's deeds in Xiucheng are not inferior to him, in order to prevent the enemy from throwing the blaster out of the pillbox, he also blocked the gun's hole with his chest, and sacrificed his young life for the liberation of Xiucheng.

In Xiucheng, the city where Zhou Shuo grew up, he grew up with such an education. Since childhood, the People's Liberation Army is the cutest person. Now that he can do something for the army, in fact, Zhou Shuo is really a little proud in his heart.

"The place we are going to is behind the martyr's cemetery, the environment near here is better, and it is not far from the train station, which is a rare place to be quiet in the embroidery city."

After driving the martyr's cemetery, Zhou Shuo hit the steering wheel, turned right and drove for more than a minute, and arrived in front of a compound with no signs at the door. (To be continued......)
