Chapter 512 The Fourth Bureau of the Ministry of Industry
Breeder, one of the eight members of the army.
It stands to reason that there is nothing to be demoted to a breeder, and during the war years many generals were demoted to cooks, guards, and trumpeters and then rose from the ground.
In other words, as long as your ability is still there, it will be lowered, and maybe it is simpler to accompany pigs, horses, cattle and sheep or something.
In fact, Bai Yi also wants to have such a detached mentality, but the problem is that his heart is very good, but his body does not allow it.
Why? Allergic! Allergic to animal hair!
At first, Bai Yi didn't know that his body had such a special potential, so when he was in North Korea, he often helped the breeders of the logistics department to take care of some livestock.
Therefore, the chief of armaments said that he should be a breeder, not just to demote him, but to really push him into the fire pit.
Secretly scolded this old guy is ruthless enough, but he doesn't dare to have the slightest snubbing on his face, it's still the same sentence, that's the chief of armaments!
"Germanium single crystal is a semiconductor material that has just been applied to the field of electronics......"
"Don't fix those useless things, say specific!"
"Uh...... Specifically, the operating efficiency of electronic components made of germanium single crystal is not only dozens of times higher than that of electron tubes, but also smaller and lighter. ”
Looking at the somewhat impatient armament chief, Bai Yi could only put aside the esoteric theory of germanium single crystal and first say the basic advantages.
When the head of armaments heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, and he immediately turned his head to a person beside him and asked: "Lu Donglai, you studied information and communication in the Soviet Union, Bai Yi said something, do you know?" ”
Before the words fell, a middle-aged man in a standard military uniform looked at Bai Yi at the door with a somewhat hesitant look, as if there was something unspeakable, what kind of temper was the head of armaments, which might make Lu Donglai's mother-in-law and mother-in-law drink directly: "What do you say, why did you go to the Soviet Union, and after drinking some foreign ink, you feel like a character?" Give Lao Tzu a little fun! ”
"Yes!"
Lu Donglai shuddered, and hurriedly straightened up with the head of armaments, and then said with a straight face: "The germanium single crystal that Comrade Bai Yi mentioned, I heard from my tutor when I was studying at the Central University in Moscow, it is a semiconductor material, and it does have something to gain in terms of performance.
But the shortcomings are also obvious, the most important thing is that the performance is very unstable, the adaptability to the ambient temperature is relatively harsh, and the current preparation methods of germanium are not mature, so the current research on this new semiconductor material is mainly concentrated in the laboratory, and it is far from reaching the extent of large-scale application, so ...... Personally, I think that Comrade Bai Yi's idea is very good and can be carried out as a basic study. ”
Lu Donglai said this very beautifully, first moved out the words of the tutor of the Central University in Moscow, the Soviet Union, and then changed the conversation, and characterized germanium single crystal semiconductor materials as basic research, what is basic research? In developed countries such as the United States and the Soviet Union, basic research indicates the prospect of the future, so induction of basic research is equivalent to exploration and investment in the future.
However, in China, a poor country that has just ended the war, all research is for the purpose of rapid transformation into production, which can be said to be a radish and a pit, and there is no so-called basic research at all.
Bai Yi didn't know the meaning of his words, and couldn't help but look at Lu Donglai, who was standing straight, and it happened that Lu Donglai also looked over at this time, and nodded apologetically at him.
Bai Yi was stunned, and then reacted, Lu Donglai's words just now were already very face-saving, and the ruthless veto conclusion, people didn't say it at all, but hoped that he could retreat in the face of difficulties, and don't touch this bottomless pit that eats people and doesn't spit out bones.
Bai Yi was right, as a communications backbone cultivated during the Agrarian Revolutionary War, Lu Donglai's nearly 20-year military career was almost always dealing with electronic equipment.
Because of this, in 1945, when the Anti-Japanese War was about to end, he was sent to the Soviet Union to study communication and information technology as a technical backbone selected by the central government.
This is four years, and although Lu Donglai, who returned from school, regretted many leaders and comrades-in-arms because he missed the Liberation War, as one of the few highly educated technical officers in the army, Lu Donglai was still reused by his superiors.
He was first assigned to the Communications and Information Bureau of the General Staff as the head of the Confidential Communications Division, and then was ordered to secretly go to North Korea to participate in the construction of the communication arrangement and electronic maintenance of the air radar network in northern Korea.
During the year-and-a-half-long air defense operations in northern Korea, the air situation support network in charge of Lu Donglai achieved very remarkable results.
It is precisely because of this that the high-level leaders saw the importance of developing China's own territorial air defense network, so they made a request to the Soviet Union to help them build their own territorial air defense network; On the other hand, it is actively starting from the most fundamental electronics industry, so as to fundamentally achieve the goal of localizing all kinds of equipment.
As a result, Lu Donglai, who was still on a mission in North Korea, was urgently transferred back to China to serve as director of the Fourth Bureau of the Ministry of Industry, headed by the chief of armaments, and was mainly in charge of the electronics industry.
Therefore, when it comes to electronic information issues, the head of armaments naturally asks the leaders of this electronics industry sector.
And Lu Donglai didn't hide anything, just put it mildly in terms of conclusions, this is not that he is afraid of the relationship between the head of armaments and Bai Yi, but he really thinks that Bai Yi is a rare talent, if he presses too hard, he is afraid that he will not be able to slow down in the future, so Lu Donglai is ready to let Bai Yi have a step down on the basis of adhering to principles.
The head of armaments is not like this, although he is very angry with Bai Yi's high ambitions, but as the only blood and blood of his old comrades-in-arms, he still takes this old chief very seriously, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he treats him as his own son, so it is nothing to scold and scold, and if he really wants Bai Yi to be a breeder, the chief of armaments is also reluctant.
So he also wanted to lift this matter high and drop it gently, but there were so many people around, if he was too eccentric, it was really unreasonable, how could he think that now Lu Donglai would do it in a few words, and after throwing an appreciative look at Lu Donglai, he looked at Bai Yi with a calm face: "The blind cat encounters the dead mouse, you also have to take it out and say it, is it a shame?" ”
Although he was still scolding, anyone could hear it, the words of the head of armaments had eased a lot, and while the people around him breathed a long sigh of relief, they all looked at Bai Yi with envy, how close this relationship is, so that the head of armaments can be like this.
However, Bai Yi didn't accept this feeling, and said with a stalk around his neck: "How can it not be applied?" Britain and the United States have obviously begun to apply it to armaments on a large scale, so why do they still say that they have not applied it? ”
