Chapter 193: Experiment Again (4000 words)
On Chinese New Year's Eve.
The first night training of the Crimson Storm was held as scheduled, and this training was the same as the first test, choosing the method of live broadcast on the Internet and TV, and it was also linked to the Spring Festival Gala halfway.
Chen Shen's house is watching a live webcast, and when the red storm was pushed out by the carrier platform at night, the barrage has not stopped, and the barrage area must be restricted to watch normally.
on TV.
In the vast dark sea, only a few helicopters are flying alongside, and the searchlights on the fuselage provide a field of view for the camera.
Below is the crimson storm, and the huge mecha is covered with red indicators that match the background color, flashing in an orderly manner on the sea surface, indicating the status of the mecha running.
Amidst the excitement of the barrage and the people in front of the TV, the red mecha broke through the sea with its legs and walked into the pitch-black sea like a warrior......
At this time, at his own home, Bai Gang, who was watching the live broadcast with his wife and children, received a call from Guo Jing.
"What? Are you saying that they put the translation machine at the airport and sold it to foreigners? ”
Hearing the news that the Lingxi translator was very popular among foreigners, Bai Gang couldn't help but be stunned.
Selling translation machines to foreigners?
What is this operation?
For a while, Bai Gang also fell into a misunderstanding of thinking.
But after he calmed down and analyzed it, he felt that this was a very reasonable approach.
First of all, the shape design of the Lingxi Translator uses a lot of mecha elements, which makes them inherently linked to mechas.
This makes them invisibly attached to the attribute of a souvenir, it seems that as long as they have it, they have been to Danshan and seen mechas.
The second is the brand of Angjiao Technology, everyone knows that this company has a close relationship with Chen Shen, the father of mechas.
The second is the mecha strategy optimized for foreign tourists in the translation machine, which accurately grasps the pain points of foreign tourists who need to translate because of their language barrier and need to be guided by the local area.
When a thing can collect all the above attributes, then it is no longer just a translator.
Bai Gang calmed down, he didn't expect that Angjiao would go directly to open up the market for foreign tourists.
"How's their sales?" He asked Guo Jing.
Guo Jing looked at the data in his hand and replied: "According to rough statistics, from the surge of foreign tourists to today, they have sold at least more than 10,000 translation machines in a short period of time, and there are countless interpretation headphones, and many foreigners on the street wear their headphones. ”
"This amount...... It's only been a few days! Bai Gang was suddenly a little surprised.
He pondered for a while, thought about it in his heart, and said: "Our new generation of translators is going to change the product strategy, since the edges and corners have opened a way on this, then we will go out along this road and sell our translators abroad!" ”
"From today onwards, we will also optimize the translation model from English to Chinese, and at the same time do a good job in the adaptation of Danshan tourism, which is closely related to Danshan tourism!"
As he spoke, Bai Gang looked at the crimson storm on the TV that was moving in the dark, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
How many people's fates have been changed by this big guy called an industrial miracle!
"Okay!" Guo Jing replied on the other end of the phone.
At the time of Bai Gang's conversation, similar things happened within several other translation machine brands, and everyone decided to look overseas.
At Chen Shen's house.
Chen's father also received good news from the marketing department.
"In Danshan Airport, our directly operated store has sold 15,000 translation machines and more than 30,000 pairs of Lingxi earphones, and it is expected that the current inventory can be cleared during the Spring Festival." The marketing executive calmly reported.
"Let's arrange for someone to spread the word." Father Chen said lightly.
For him and the current edges, this sales are worth celebrating, but there is no need to be too surprised.
Its greater significance is to prove to the world that there is no failure in this product, and there is no such thing as Waterloo.
"Understood." The marketing director said that things were quickly arranged.
This New Year is nothing special for many Chinese people, except for the live broadcast of mecha training for more than two days at the beginning of the year.
At most, I ate a melon of Angular Technology before the New Year, and then reversed it after the New Year.
But for many foreigners, this is the first time they have come to China, and it is the first time to spend the Spring Festival in China and taste the traditional culture of China.
They used the Lingxi series of products to move freely in foreign countries, they watched the scenery and traditional folk customs of the Danshan Spring Festival, and experienced it firsthand, and also went to the sea to watch the mecha training, which is called an industrial miracle.
For many foreigners, it is the first time they have such an in-depth understanding of the Spring Festival.
They are deeply intoxicated by the powerful vitality of this modern technology and ancient civilization.
And the New Year is also slowly coming to an end in the surprise of these foreigners.
Chen Shen ended his vacation.
He separated from his family and Xie Yiyi, left the previous award certificate at home, and set out on the journey back to the base by himself again.
got on the high-speed train and got on the special car sent by the base, who knew that Wang Qian was also sitting in the car.
"Aunt Qian, why are you here?" Chen Shen was a little surprised.
Wang Qian said: "The train I took arrived half an hour earlier than you, so I just waited for you to go back together." ”
She added: "I also took a vacation to go home during the Chinese New Year this year, otherwise the children would not know me. ”
"That's a lot of hard work." Chen Shen sighed in his heart, it was the first time he heard Aunt Qian talk about his family.
But there is no way, the base must remain highly closed for the past two years, except for special personnel like him, others are definitely not so free.
Many people have to make trade-offs between family and work.
Therefore, the only thing Chen Shen can do is to subsidize more money, which is the only thing he has interfered in the base except for scientific research.
The salaries and allowances of the people in the base are 1.5 to 3 times higher than those under normal circumstances, and the annual expenditure of the entire base in the previous year exceeded 6 billion yuan, and the minimum annual salary reached 200,000 yuan.
Of course, professions such as packing aunts are not included in the statistics.
The car passes through the mecha town.
Mecha Town has not changed much, but due to the reason of returning to the hometown, there are many more young people and it is also much more lively.
For the people in the town, the most obvious change in the last year was not the newly built mecha base by the sea, but the improvement of the security in the town, which has completely reached the point where the door is not closed at night and the road is not left behind.
At the same time, the traffic has also improved a lot, the bus lines have increased a lot, and the high-speed rail station and highway have also passed the plan quickly, and the high-speed rail station is expected to be completed and opened to traffic within two years.
Bored on the road, Chen Shen and Wang Qian talked about the future plans of the town.
Wang Qian looked out the car window and told the inside information: "In the future, we plan to use the influence of the dome base to move a few more universities to build this town into a science city integrating tourism and technology." ”
"Then the Dome Base won't be closed again?" Chen Shen asked.
"At that time, it is estimated that it will still have to be closed, but after we transfer the sensitive technology, it will no longer be as strict as it is now, and maybe people can still visit the base."
"But this plan is a long-term plan, maybe it will take more than ten years for it to be realized."
Chen Shen shook his head.
This is the case with domestic planning, where the unit of time is calculated in terms of five years or more.
In the small talk between the two, the car quickly returned to the base.
At this time, the base was still on holiday, and the research side was basically suspended.
Although you can't leave the base, it doesn't mean that you won't have a holiday during the New Year.
Because of this, there is a lot of excitement everywhere in the base.
In the park, there are couples of young couples, the Internet café is a gathering place for bachelors, and the middle-aged uncle is in the health center for massage and health, chatting with other people......
Chen Shen put away the luggage he brought back from home, and looked at the time It was only one o'clock at noon, so there was no need to stay in the dormitory.
Opening the door of the dome base and entering the laboratory, Chen Shen saw at a glance the photoacoustic scanner installed on the robotic arm.
The current scanner is very different from the previous one, around the laser emitter in the middle, four new photoacoustic signal sensors have been added, and the volume of the entire scanner is larger.
Before the New Year, he had been working on these sensors, increasing from one to five, and finally could not solve the problem of overlapping optical and acoustic signals.
Now he decided to increase the number of sensors directly to ten, each sensor is responsible for the signal at a specific time, and then synthesize and compare the signals collected by all the sensors, and then disassemble them into ten segments according to time after confirming that the signal is correct.
However, if you want to add sensors, you can't just connect the wires, you also need to rewrite the control program of the whole system to ensure that each sensor can be activated at the right time and collect the right signal.
At the same time, after the signal collection is completed, the synthesis and comparison of the signal is also a problem.
But to complete this experiment of collecting signals, he now only needs to modify the control program of the photoacoustic scanner so that it can control the sensor to start at the right time.
The new control program he had found time to write while fishing at home.
Take out the USB flash drive from your pocket, turn on the computer, and replace the old program with the new control program.
Then Chen Shen walked to the laboratory again, found the sensors that had arrived before, and easily installed all of them on the robotic arm.
Once installed, the photoacoustic scanner now looks like a large plate with many speakers, with a laser emitter at the front of the robotic arm and a sensor that receives the signal along a mosquito coil bracket, which is very rudimentary but securely attached next to it.
Just looking at this appearance, you can't see the high-tech appearance at all.
But who would have thought that this thing was a hack?
Chen Shen put on gloves, grabbed a mouse into the observation box and fixed it, and sealed its mouth with tape.
Go to the control computer and start the scanner.
Chirping~
The robotic arm inside automatically aimed the laser scanner at the mouse and completed the scan without sound.
Invisible photoacoustic signals are generated in the mice, and the newly installed control program also controls the photoacoustic sensor to activate at a specific time, recording a clear signal at each time.
Soon, the results are fed back to the oscilloscope and on the screen.
Chen Shen directly decoded the signal on the computer and quickly checked the data inside.
"It's okay, the collected signal this time looks quite clear."
After the initial inspection, Chen Shen closed the converted data page, and all the experimental data was transferred.
At this time, I glanced at my mobile phone, and unconsciously in the fully enclosed laboratory, it was already six o'clock in the afternoon.
walked out of the laboratory and was about to go to dinner, but when he looked up, he saw He Changfeng coming down from the office upstairs.
That's when he realized there were other people here.
"Chief Master Chen, why are you here?" He Changfeng walked over in surprise.
Chen Shen pointed to the laboratory behind him and the hard drive in his hand, "I came here to do an experiment that I planned to do a few years ago, why are you still here?" ”
Personnel who have nothing to do with the Crimson Storm project can go home on vacation, and research assistants like Zhou Zhuang are on vacation.
He Changfeng said with a smile: "I have come back from home, and this vacation is longer than usual, but I can't be idle after resting for too long." ”
The two walked towards the canteen tacitly, and on the way, Chen Shen also asked about the project:
"Can our photoacoustic scanners continue to shrink down for now?"
The photoacoustic scanner used now was researched and pieced together by He Changfeng and other experts.
Compared with the technology of the system, it is much lower-end, although the two are close in performance, but the difference in body power consumption is quite far.
Hearing this, He Changfeng showed a wry smile: "Our current system has reached the limit, and if it is scaled down, we will have to follow the technical design you gave me before, but we are still studying those materials, and you have designed the system inside too finely, and it is not easy to build it." ”
"I don't think it's going to be two or three years, so there's definitely nothing to hope for."
Chen Shen also gave He Changfeng a copy of the design drawings and technical ideas of the photoacoustic scanner, and it was with this drawing that they were able to piece together the current photoacoustic scanner based on the above ideas.
"It seems that this time can only be used with the current scanner." Chen Shen shook his head and sighed.
He Changfeng continued to smile wryly, and couldn't help but remind him: "Actually, the current scanner of our project is already very strong. ”
Not only is it very strong, the photoacoustic scanner they are now manufacturing combines the ideas in Chen Shen's drawings, for other countries in the world, it is already a complete black technology, and it is estimated that people in other countries who study photoacoustic imaging have never thought that there can be this kind of technology.
And they can already make the body generate photoacoustic signals through the instrument, and receive specific signals, which can be said to be a solid step.
In other places, this kind of work can be casually published in various scientific journals abroad.
He didn't understand how Chen Shen couldn't be dissatisfied......
