Chapter 048 Workflow

"Actually, I've thought of the super-regenerative circuit for a long time, yes, I can swear." Armstrong said unwillingly.

Now that the words have been spoken, Li Kangping has no scruples: "But Edwin, I also thought of the super regenerative circuit a long time ago, and made a super regenerative circuit, didn't I?" ”

"Ha, that's true." Armstrong shrugged.

"Edwin, since you and I are both connoisseurs, we don't have to hide it. Why don't you talk about your superheterodyne circuit, aren't you going to have a superheterodyne radio produced? ”

"Lee, you don't need to worry about this, does it?"

"Oh, Edwin, my Edwin, Edwin with a super defense."

"Lee, seriously, you're not as likable as you seem. I don't know why every professor likes you, ha, but you do. ”

"Edwin, I thought the exchange between the two of us was going to be an exciting, even exciting, technical exchange."

"Huh."

Hah, you're fucking big.

Li Kangping said secretly, I am doing my job in my laboratory, but you come to mess with my mentality, this is the style of American soldiers in the technology stream?

From a technical point of view, Armstrong registered a patent for superheterodyne circuits as early as 1918, at the end of 1921, the overall industrial level of the United States was relatively high and the industrial system was relatively perfect, and American radio manufacturers were fully capable of producing superheterodyne radios.

In Li Kangping's memory, superheterodyne radio was first launched in the U.S. market in 1924, and superheterodyne radio was very popular as soon as it was launched, and was very popular with American consumers. However, for some reason, the superheterodyne radio was quickly discontinued.

It was not until the end of 1934 that superheterodyne radios began to be mass-produced and sold, and quickly swept the American market and became the hegemon in the radio market.

For some reason, it can be summed up in just two words: interests.

Armstrong allowed American radio manufacturers to use his patent for superheterodyne circuits to produce superheterodyne radios.

For every superheterodyne radio produced, you have to pay me a sum of money. This is Armstrong's request.

The attitude of the American radio manufacturer was, Mr. Armstrong, we will pay you a generous patent buyout fee in one lump sum, do you think it will work?

Stubborn Armstrong said no, and I insisted on a reasonable request for royalties on each radio.

As a result, the superheterodyne radio was discontinued after a brief introduction to the market in 1924.

In 1934, Armstrong's patent for superheterodyne circuits expired, and from that time on, any radio manufacturer could use superheterodyne circuit technology to produce superheterodyne circuits for free.

After another 20 years, Armstrong, who was riddled with illness and grief, committed suicide.

To sum up Armstrong's life, he didn't make much money from his patents.

It's also hard to say who's right and who's wrong, and there are too many cases like Armstrong's dispute with the company in the history of technology development.

And the last laugh is often the enterprise.

Let's go back to October 1921.

Armstrong's first meeting with Li Kangping was not pleasant.

Li Kangping's super-regenerative circuit with a shell is a super-regenerative radio product.

Truth be told, the performance of the super-regenerative radio is better than the radios currently on sale, but not as good as the superheterodyne radio.

Li Kangping registered a patent for a super-regenerative circuit, and he didn't plan to sell the patent to anyone, if he could lie down and collect a commission fee, he would lie down and collect it.

In fact, we also know that lying down is a dream that is difficult to achieve.

Many inventors do not realize their dreams of lying down, but there are many people who lie dead, lie crazy, and lie autistic.

For the time being, we will not list super-regenerative radios, superheterodyne radios, or any radios.

Let our minds follow Kangping to the Morning Street Apartments.

Click, click.

[Part 4: Phase Harmony Theorem.] 】

[The phenomenon of periodic variation of the frequency of a moving object with respect to a stationary observer equal to ν1=1/hm0c^2√1-β^2 is always in phase with a wave with a frequency of ν=1/hm0c^2√1-β^2 and the same direction of propagation as that of an object moving with velocity V=c/β......]

【…… To sum up, this is what the theory of matter waves is all about. 】

How do I prove my proposed theory of matter waves?] 】

[I think we can try it in terms of electron diffraction experiments.] 】

Li Kangping's "Matter Wave" was written in its entirety, with a total of 42 pages.

"42 pages, not the length of the Huanghuang Monument, but the core of the Brilliant Monument."

With awe, Li Kangping reviewed the typescript of his "Material Wave" word by word.

Whether or not to win the Nobel Prize is a trivial matter for the paper "Matter Waves", which is related to the future of mankind, the future of the earth, the future of the universe, and the future of various dimensions.

Li Kangping hid "Matter Wave" in an absolutely safe place, waiting for Professor Woodgate's return.

It is said that Jennifer worked at Zeus Company in Manhattan for a month, and Li Kangping gave her $200 in public funds to buy some decorations to decorate the company's office beautifully and warmly.

On this day, Li Kangping came to the King's Building, and he saw that the office had changed.

There are several paintings hanging on the walls, Provence in France, Canterbury in England, these are etchings. Amalfi monks, noble ladies drinking afternoon tea, these are watercolors. Niagara Falls, the Colosseum, these are steel engravings.

I don't know which painter the painting came from, it will certainly not be the work of Van Gogh or Monet, it should be a bargain that can be purchased everywhere, with a total value of about $100.

There is a vase of camellias, violets, and carnations on the table, and the price of the vase and flowers is about $55.

"President, what do you think?" Jennifer asked with interest.

"Yes, it's pretty good, it's a bit literary and artistic, and it's more warm."

There must be women in the office, and the presence of female employees adds a little to the otherwise lifeless office.

Jennifer's ability to furnish her office in the same way she decorates her home is a good sign that Jennifer has a sense of ownership and that she loves her business as her family, which is worth cultivating.

"Jennifer, are you done with your paper?"

"I'm done, I've actually got my degree, and I'm going to attend the graduation ceremony at the end of November."

"Jennifer, I'd like to talk to you about PDCA."

"What? PDCA? What's that? ”

Li Kangping picked up the chalk and wrote on the scaffolded small blackboard: P, Plan. D,Do。 C,Check。 A,Act。

"Plan, Do, Check, Act, this is PDCA?" Jennifer stared thoughtfully at the circular closed loop formed by the PDCA.

Li Kangping explained: "P, the plan, including the determination of policies and objectives, as well as the formulation of activity plans. D. Execution, based on the known information, design specific methods, schemes and plan layouts. C. Check and summarize the results of the implementation plan, distinguish what is right and what is wrong, clarify the effect, and find out the problem. A, processing, to summarize the results of the inspection to deal with, the successful experience to affirm, and to standardize, for the failure of the lessons should also be summarized, to attract attention. For problems that are not resolved, they should be submitted to the next PDCA cycle to be resolved. I say that, do you understand? ”

Jennifer pondered for a moment, and she asked, "PDCA seems to be a workflow?" I understand it this way, is there a problem? ”

"Good girl!"

Li Kangping smiled and slapped his face, he continued: "Have I ever told you that the so-called PDCA can improve our fault tolerance rate at work, Jennifer, you remember, no matter what you do, you have to keep PDCA, PDCA this, PDCA that, until you really solve the problem or achieve the work goal. ”

Jennifer wondered, "The fault tolerance rate has increased, but the work efficiency may decrease?" ”

"No, no, no, efficiency doesn't go down. All in all, Jennifer, I want you to start working in a PDCA way from now on. You try it for a while, and if you still have questions, come back to me, OK? ”

"Okay, you're the boss, you have the final say."

With a little doubt and a little bit of novelty, Miss Jennifer applies PDCA to her daily work.
