Chapter 499: Cat and Mouse Game (4)
"Duke, we have now completed the first version of the new architecture, and now we can basically carry out the simulation operation of the basic aircraft simulation wind tunnel test work, according to our current test results, the efficiency is ten times that of the past application, and the most important thing is that now our application can run under the Nuwa operating system."
"In this way, we can replace the supercomputer system under the new Tianhe 4A hardware platform, and can cooperate with the new supercomputer system to improve the efficiency of our wind research and simulation work to a new stage, and our wind tunnel test will be more targeted in the future, after the improvement of computer simulation testing, the original verification work that originally required tens of thousands of hours may be shortened to thousands or even hundreds of hours."
Jiang Chen, R&D Director of the Wind Tunnel Research Base, reported to Duke on the recent progress with a smile, and was able to complete the cross-platform reconstruction of the wind tunnel simulation application in such a short period of time, thanks to the high-level software architecture and key algorithm improvements provided by Duke, which was able to complete this huge improvement work in more than a month.
According to Jiang Chen's understanding of the development level of wind tunnel research simulation application at home and abroad, such excellent performance has surpassed the best level of American counterparts in terms of software, if it is not for the supercomputer hardware level, the wind tunnel research base will comprehensively surpass the world's most advanced level in this simulation research.
Jiang Chen is very satisfied with such an achievement, although the functions completed now are only about 60% of the planning functions, but now the infrastructure of this application platform is basically completed, and the core algorithms that affect the efficiency most are perfectly implemented under the guidance of Duke, with extremely high operating efficiency.
In this case, Jiang Chen, the main responsible R&D director, is certainly very proud.
"Well, let's just refine the rest of the features, and I think we can develop another branch version that is dedicated to studying the aerodynamics of low-speed targets such as cars." , Duke listened to Jiang Chen's report but didn't feel much excitement, this thing was under his control, and now he took advantage of this excellent opportunity to start preparing to do something that took care of both public and private affairs.
Although the research of automobile aerodynamics is also within the scope of research and testing of the wind tunnel base, it is not the mainstream at present, and the main energy of the base is focused on the research of aerospace vehicles, such as aircraft, rockets, missiles, etc., similar to automobile aerodynamics research, although the base can do relevant tests, but it is far from being so perfect in supporting facilities.
However, Duke has an extremely important joint venture of Dongfang Qiyang Automobile, and the research of new models is very much in need of this thing, although there are some corresponding simulation applications in the European R&D center of Opel, but after Duke got these simulation applications, he found that the function is still too simple, and the scope of simulation application research is too limited.
This is very detrimental to shortening the aerodynamic shape research cycle of a new car model, so Duke has always wanted to have the opportunity to improve these simulation applications accordingly, and this time, with such a complete historical data and a newly developed wind tunnel simulation application platform, of course, this opportunity will not be missed.
What's more, this thing is also a new opportunity for the base, Duke can use this new aerodynamic simulation application to develop and improve the aerodynamics of the new model shape after the development is completed, and the base can naturally use this simulation application system to provide this service for other automobile companies at home and abroad.
"No problem, our R&D team has been very familiar with this new architecture after the initial exercise, and now it is possible to add new personnel to develop it, and I hope to be able to develop a series of simulation applications under the auspices of Dr. Duke, not to mention aerospace vehicles, low-speed moving objects such as automobiles and ships, high-speed moving objects such as bullets and shells, and we all hope to have very professional simulation applications to support research."
Jiang Chen's goal plan is very grand, if such a complete set of aerodynamic research simulation application system is established, it will definitely be a major achievement of the base, through the combination of actual wind tunnel simulation test and simulation simulation, the base will definitely become the world's premier wind tunnel research base.
In the official agreement between the base and Duke, the base owns the copyright of all newly developed simulation applications, but Duke companies have the right to use these simulation applications for free, and this win-win cooperation allows Duke to use the base's R&D resources to develop these simulation applications that are very useful to Duke companies.
The base can also quickly realize the leapfrog development of simulation applications, and can use these new simulation applications to enter the huge civilian market, and provide more simulation services for automobiles, ships and other R&D institutions.
Therefore, Jiang Chen's suggestion for Duke to start the development of a new branch version is 100% supportive, which is a good thing, he doesn't know how long the base will be able to cooperate with Duke, but obviously the boss will not let Duke stay here all the time to conduct research in this area, the base leaders finally coordinated the collaboration of Duke, Jiang Chen of course wants to make the best use of this opportunity.
Just do what you don't do, the dominance has never been in the hands of the base, but in the hands of Duke.
In this case, any new field that Duke enters, Jiang Chen will strongly support.
The research work is progressing rapidly, of course, it is a great joy for the base, most of the following R & D personnel are very happy, because with the progress of the project, the base leaders announced that this time will reflect everyone's achievements in the quarterly bonus, one by one, the rumors that came out this time, ordinary personnel have at least thousands, and the backbone even has tens of thousands, because this is a major achievement breakthrough award from the general assembly application, and the total plate is considerable.
The R&D personnel of the base are not the backbone of SAL's R&D, and they have salaries that are in line with the international salary level, so the quarterly bonus at this level is quite weighty.
Hearing this news, most people are more motivated, and many people begin to consciously volunteer to work overtime, in order to complete their work faster, and be able to do a little more, because the base leaders issued an announcement this time that the distribution is based on everyone's results as the main consideration, and rank is a secondary factor.
This bonus assessment and distribution method is that the base leaders have long wanted to implement, but due to various reasons have not been as desired, this time just take advantage of this Dongfeng for the first time to pilot the implementation. Except for those cadres whose interests have been damaged, most of the R&D personnel have a very enthusiastic response to this plan.
Fang Dawei, director of a major department of R&D at the base, is one who has reservations, he has worked in the base for more than 20 years before he mixes into his current position, and now he is almost 50 years old.
"This plan obviously does not take into account the technical accumulation and contribution of the veteran comrades over the years, and I think it is very unfair to the veteran comrades." Fang Dawei said with some indignation at the briefing of the middle-level leaders of the department, "It is precisely with the accumulation of skills of the old comrades that the young people have a higher starting point and achieve better results. ”
After becoming the leader of a department, he is now basically out of the front line of R&D, and he really looks at the contribution, while Fang Dawei only has the contribution of the leadership role, and the weight of this thing is quite low, basically three or four times different from the R&D backbone.
In this way, Fang Dawei's bonus coefficient will be much lower than that of R&D backbones.
"I think Lao Fang has a point," Long Congyun, the director of the other main R&D department next to him, echoed after giving Fang Dawei a deep look. "This will indeed chill the hearts of many old comrades, who have worked hard for nearly a lifetime to have today's prosperous situation, and we cannot do this kind of thing of unloading and killing donkeys."
Long Congyun is also an old returnee doctor in his forties, but compared with Fang Dawei, he is still an important R&D backbone of the department, according to the announcement, there was no place for profit and loss in this distribution, and everyone did not expect that it was him who jumped out to oppose the new plan this time.
Fang Dawei didn't expect that this person who didn't have many friendships on weekdays would also support him, and he couldn't help but be a little moved.
However, these discussions obviously could not shake the determination of the base leaders, and after the briefing, although the middle-level cadres whose interests had suffered the most serious damage either tactfully or directly expressed their opposition, they did not shake the determination of the base leaders.
In the end, after the bonus was issued, the bonus received by Fang Dawei was not very different from that of ordinary R&D personnel, and compared with the R&D backbones, it was less than one-third of it.
Faced with this situation, Fang Dawei's psychology is a little unbalanced. On the one hand, he is now in urgent need of money, and his son's application for studying abroad has now been approved, but because there is no scholarship, a large amount of tuition and living expenses need to be paid by himself, which is a large amount of money, and Fang Dawei's life savings cannot meet his son's need for study abroad funds.
"Lao Fang, are you still worried about your son's study abroad expenses?" Long Congyun didn't know when he appeared in front of Fang Dawei's eyes, and saw that Fang Dawei was stunned with this month's salary and bonus list, so he asked.
"It's still a little close," Fang Dawei didn't see who was coming, and replied casually, only to find out that it was Long Congyun, "Yo, it's Director Long, your bonus should be good this time, right?" You directly lead an R&D team, and you have achieved a lot. ”
"It's okay, there are more than 40,000 yuan." Long Congyun opened his mouth and said, only after saying that, he patted his head, "Oh, I violated discipline again, didn't the boss ask us not to ask each other about this bonus?"
"More than 40,000?!" Fang Dawei's psychology is even more unbalanced, and compared with Long Congyun, his prize gap is even greater.
