Chapter 664: Assessment (1st Update)
It's not that Bangs doesn't want to make a chip architecture by himself, but he doesn't have that ability.
On the one hand, Liu Hai is not an expert in this area, and on the other hand, our country still has a big shortcoming in this regard.
It may be said that maybe the top bull is not bad, but a chip architecture does not rely on one person, two people can support it, and a huge team is needed.
There are also chips not only to have scientific research results, but also to have application results, in terms of the current domestic environment, even if it is a scientific research unit, it is rare to install a computer for you.
At present, the price of a computer is about $1,500 in the West, and the high-end version can even reach $3,000 or 4,000.
A small car abroad is only 12,300 US dollars, even if the current situation in China is much better than in history, but there are too many people in our country, and the average growth rate is not very high.
After all, there is a cost for industrial products, and now in the case of seizing the market, it is certainly impossible to have high profits.
"This fat bear is really going around supporting others to do things."
Rare earths are not used so much in China at all, and they cannot support the huge industrial chain.
In fact, what Bald Eagle doesn't know here is that when some countries produce rotors, because the composite materials are not good enough, there is only a pile of titanium alloy, and there is no way, so they produce this at home.
Therefore, in terms of application, at most, some core scientific research units are equipped with computers.
After all, the Black Hawk was in service very early, and the opponent's utility helicopter was in service much later, and helicopter data can be obtained from third parties or other places.
"As for the production according to the same configuration, then it is completely impossible, because if it is formulated according to the gunship sold by the Gallic chicken, then the price quoted by our side will be 20% higher than the original basis, or more."
Just like in 2020, China has become the largest country in mobile payment, also because of the promotion of the civilian market.
So the bangs are ready to be removed, so I will do this to promote the development of semiconductors in our country.
After careful disassembly and comparison by these engineers, a result was obtained that the engineers could not believe.
It is precisely because of the development of their civilian field that they have promoted the development of chips, semiconductors and informatization in their countries.
"IMHO, this is simply impossible, I think the military may like each other's helicopters even more?" The expert replied with a shrug.
“ Shit!” A few officials who listened to the report can imagine how much profit these thousands of helicopters will bring, and how much impact they will have on their own market, and everyone knows that helicopters may not be bad if they buy them back for decades, as well as after-sales maintenance for decades.
It's not that everything is fine with a chip, there are various compatible device service agreements and so on.
"So if we adopt the same configuration and the same optimized design, can we regain the market." Officials of certain aspects of the Bald Eagle consulted experts in helicopters.
There is also a small market share occupied by the hardcore brothers.
"Although there is a certain technical difficulty in saying that the high bypass is more difficult than the engine, according to their current level of scientific and technological development, it is likely that they will be able to develop their own engine in the next five years."
After all, if the Gallic chickens knew about it, I am afraid it would cause a lot of disputes.
This is because of the strength of the material.
"And I think Europe will give them new airworthiness certificates and flight permits, so it's hard for us to get stuck in that regard!"
Several officials who listened to the report also felt their scalps tingle when they heard this, because the price gap between the two reached more than 40%.
Even if it is equipped with 10,000 computers, there is not much application market, and the new computer on the Bald Eagle side can be booked for 250,000 units in a month.
"I forgot to tell you that this is only a gunship, and the number of utility helicopters is said to be more than that." The expert shrugged again.
However, Liu Hai thought of a chip application field and a larger market, game consoles!
Even a fool can't buy his own products with such a big price gap.
Historically, the Apache did not enter service until 1984, and in 1986 it became combat-ready.
Because if it is not sold, the entire global helicopter gunship market will be occupied by certain countries.
Of course, it is impossible to come forward to touch it yourself, so at this time Liu Hai thought of the dealer again.
"The gyroscopes inside the aiming helmets are very precise, and the Gallic chickens are actually ahead of us in this regard."
As for the turboshaft engine, it goes without saying, because Bald Eagle has long dismantled the universal helicopter bought from the Gallic chicken.
Computers can improve some productivity and reduce some manpower, but that's a bit of the opposite of what we're doing now, and we're just going to put people in place right now.
At this time, in the factory of an aircraft manufacturing company in Bald Eagle, engineers were dismantling a helicopter gunship purchased from Gallic chickens.
"I visited their Yun-9 aircraft over there in Niuniu, and I have to say that they are already very strong in the field of aircraft manufacturing, no worse than us, so I suggest that we can speed up the pace in the field of civil aviation, if the McDonnell Douglas deal drags on for another two years, maybe the other party will not buy it, and now they don't want to buy it, maybe they want to make it themselves, and the reason why they don't refuse now is because their research and development has not yet reached the time to produce results." The expert spoke again.
Of course, AMD copied Intel later, and then Intel won the lawsuit, and finally AMD obtained a perpetual license for the x86 architecture in 1996.
"Your suggestion last time was really timely, allowing us to plan and adjust a lot of industrial products."
Exporting abroad can make foreign countries dependent on our rare earth products, so in the back, some countries have been shouting for this and that, but they have to continue to do business.
"I have to say that the avionics of the Gallic chicken are not much worse than ours, and the sensitivity of this aiming helmet is better than that of our design." The engineers thought that all the avionics and aiming helmets were made of Gallic chickens.
“why?” Hearing the expert's words, the officials above were a little confused.
"Wire-controlled anti-tank missiles are a little behind."
In 2020, a company in China will be able to compete with foreign countries in the field of mobile phones, and it is also the civilian market that it relies on.
It is simply impossible for other scientific research units to do all the work because of this cost.
And to make a chip alone, you have to do other upstream and downstream things separately.
So Bangs feels that it is completely possible to touch x86 now, this permanent authorization.
"How the hell did they do it!" If you talk about general-purpose helicopters, there is also a suspicion of copying your own country's helicopters.
"Damn, these extravagant guys are all in titanium alloy armor!" First of all, the titanium alloy armor on the outside of the plane was dismantled one by one.
"There's no way around it, they've booked so many gunships, they've sold so much, they have enough money to upgrade their avionics system!"
"I think Gallic chickens will soon overtake us in helicopter avionics because they sell just too much."
It's just that sometimes the direction is too important, after all, if there is too much production in one aspect, it will have a great impact on the industrial structure and economic structure of the whole country.
This matter was summarized in some departments, and people in certain departments of Bald Eagle looked at the reports submitted by the experts and also had question marks.
The model was determined only in 1976 in a competition with opponents.
"Send all these parts to the lab!" All the disassembled parts are sent to the laboratory to test the strength of the structure and so on.
This is like the early car drive shafts are very thick, but by 2020, many car drive shafts will be much thinner.
To say a piece of trivia, cotton somewhere that has been shouted by Western countries is the best material for making explosives.
Someone wants to say that this company is making communication equipment, which has nothing to do with individuals, and communication equipment also depends on the huge civilian market.
"And it is said that their orders for armed helicopters have accumulated to the end of 1980, and the number of orders for armed helicopters has exceeded 1,000, and with the development of new tanks for Fat Bear, I think this number may rise 2~3 times." The expert spoke again.
There is also the overall structure, as well as certain material aspects, especially the titanium alloy processing process.
On the one hand, we can speed up the layout of domestic rare earth industrialization through this, for example, rare earth production technology China is leading the world, why these technologies are leading, not because of export profits, there is the power of research and development.
And after obtaining the authorization, the produced things can also be sold all over the world, if you make a separate thing, then people will definitely not be compatible.
On the contrary, after some customers made comparisons, they did not hesitate to choose the Gallic chicken gunship.
Buying a computer is one thing, and follow-up computer maintenance and maintenance of computer consumables are a large expense.
But helicopter gunships, others can enter service earlier than their own country.
Therefore, Liu Hai now has to find a way to get authorization, it is not wise to open a separate track, and Liu Hai is not clear about the future development direction.
That is, this helicopter gunship, which is better than its own in many aspects, especially the internal layout.
"With such a big price gap for the same product, if you were to choose, which one would you choose?" The expert spoke again.
"Oooh, the design of the front glass of these guys is very advantageous." The front glass of the armed helicopter produced by some countries in the East is flat, while the front of the early Apache aircraft is not flat, it is a spherical shape, and it was later found that it is still flat and easy to use in the war.
"And how the strength of the helicopter's transmission system meets the requirements!" These engineers looked at the disassembled drivetrain and found that the transmission parts were slightly smaller than their own specifications.
In 2020, there were some doubts about selling rare earths, but from a strategic point of view, it was the right thing to do.
Tungsten, heavy rare earths, titanium and so on.
Of course, the benefits must still be many, at least to feed a lot of workers.
Liu Hai nodded, in fact, he suggested last time that it meant to give his superiors a reassurance, because the superior departments must also have relevant information.
Because the Bald Eagle has not yet completed all the optimized design, it is not as good as a utility helicopter in many details.
Then commissioned Intel to produce, when Intel was dry storage, felt that the processor had no future, and finally the company paid $50,000 to Intel for the x86 architecture microprocessor.
There is also the designer of the 4004 chip, Li Jin, who took over the half-dead 8008, and then launched the 8080 chip.
So the Gallic chickens were able to successfully get a Bald Eagle gunship, as for how they got it, this is unknown.
A computer is not just made of a chip, there are many other things.
It has to be said that although some countries seem to be relatively scarce in natural resources, many things are basically unique.
So the designer of this 4004, Li Jin, thought that Intel did not pay attention to the CPU market, so he left, and then developed Z80, Z80 compatible with the 8080 instruction set to hang the 8080, which also proves that the instruction set itself has no patent protection, only ISA, that is, the instruction set architecture has patent protection.
"And it should be noted that their aero engine field is also developing rapidly, and the engine technology of their latest Yun-9 aircraft has reached the world's advanced level."
Liu Hai also knows one thing, that is, the x86 architecture was not developed by Intel in the early days, but a company replaced it with a microprocessor in order to solve the problem of circuit board heating.
However, at this time, the blank-headed eagle saw the helicopter gunships produced by certain countries, and in 1977, it officially announced that its own helicopter gunships were put into service and sold to the world.
Because there are some things that their country does not have at all, and once they say that they will cut off all contacts, then they will lose first.
Bald Eagle's titanium alloy in China is extremely expensive, because they are almost all smuggled back from the fat bear, and the gunship in Bald Eagle's house only has titanium alloy armor in key parts.
The development of Bald Eagle semiconductors and computer electronic informatization is inseparable from the development of their application fields.
Bald Eagle also traveled from some other countries for a long time, and then it took a long time to get this gunship.
In fact, at this time, Intel does not pay attention to CPU at all, he is a dry storage.
Sun Aiguo was on the side, of course he didn't know about the bangs, thinking about the semiconductor thing, and still talking about the things in the south.
"How did they do it!"
"Their helicopter is all covered with titanium alloy armor, including their rotors, which are much more titanium than us, and they are stronger than us in terms of strike resistance."
Of course, there are a few hardcore brothers who want to buy, but these hardcore brothers must be uncomfortable in their hearts.
"This damn guy!" The people who listened to the report above heard so many helicopter orders, this is all money, if it weren't for this damn guy to stir up the situation, these more than 1,000 helicopter orders would be their own.
"Damn, the rotor actually uses a lot of titanium alloy, how did they master the titanium alloy processing process?" After the rotor was removed, it was cut and inspected.
That's why Bald Eagle will find a way to get the gunship for sale of Gallic chickens, see what advantages the other party has, and copy it himself.
"I think you gentlemen also understand that the stronger the resistance to blows, the higher the survival rate." The expert spoke.
"Damn, filthy and despicable nobles, shit-stirring sticks, they should be sent to the square!"
"In this transaction, if it weren't for Niu Niu's-stirring stick, we would have reached an agreement a long time ago." Several officials who listened to the report were also annoyed.
