Ling'er and Ying'er went to rest, and everyone was still chatting in the courtyard after the sky and night.

Those who were invited by Chu Yun to attend the banquet may not be people with high status, but they must have known Chu Yun for many years.

Seeing that Liu Rushi was also present, Chu Yun asked her: "What's going on with Project 01 now?"

The 01 project where Liu Rushi is located may be the most advanced project under Chu Yun. Its advanced level directly skipped the first, and the second industrial revolution touched the information age.

That's right, Chu Yun is still resentful of computers and wants to create a prototype computer in the 17th century.

Of course, the computer at the beginning was not for entertainment, but for calculating ballistic trajectories and performing other complex operations.

Chu Yun didn't expect to really build a computer in the 17th century. After all, it involves electronic components such as electronic tubes, resistors, capacitors, etc. Chu Yun didn't know whether these electronic components were available. He was not an expert in this field and had limited knowledge of computers.

The more you use the technology to force the system to open, the more difficult it is. Computers, as a technology that appeared only after the end of the Second Industrial Revolution, pays too much.

The price is to sacrifice other more practical technologies nowadays.

Therefore, Chu Yun can only hand it over to Liu Rushi and other members of her 01 project, for them to conduct relevant research.

Regardless of whether their generation can develop computers, they have accumulated technology for future generations.

Liu Rushi was a little drunk, but still answered rationally and soberly: "We will probably take about one or two years. It is estimated that the computer can perform 5,000 addition operations per second. The entire machine will use more than 17,000 electronic tubes and weigh 30 tons."

No...

Chu Yun really didn't expect that the prototype of the computer would come out!

Although it is not a personal computer that Chu Yun has seen, it is the essence of a computer used for high-speed computing and can be used to reduce the workload of calculators.

"You have done a good job. When the computer is really made, all members of the 01 project will be rewarded." Chu Yun was surprised when he learned about the progress of the computer, of course he would be generous. "If I have time, I will go to check the 01 project."

With computers, we can see the veil of the Third Industrial Revolution and even develop ahead of schedule.

Chu Yun and others drank until very late before they dispersed.

The next day, when Chu Yun woke up, his head hurt a little.

Ling'er and Ying'er got up early in the morning to pay their respects to Chu Yun and other elders. Li Ying'er's face also became much rosy.

Because Li Ying'er entered the military master's mansion, the military master's mansion seemed even more lively.

Chu Yun did not set strict rules. Although he was satisfied with Ling'er and Li Ying'er's initiative to greet him, he felt distressed: "You don't have to be so restricted. There are not many rules in our mansion."

In any case, Chu Yun thought he would have a grandson soon.

After resting for half a day, he left the military master's mansion and went to check for progress in the 01 project.

This project was established a long time ago by Chu Yun, and he also provides tens of thousands of silver as funds every year.

The goal of the 01 project is to study computers.

However, in the process of studying computers, in order to achieve their goals, members of the project team had to study their pre-engine technologies, such as electronic tubes.

Thanks to the 01 project, the electronic tube technology will be widely used in various electrical appliances, not just computers.

As the founder of promoting the establishment of this unknown project, Chu Yun has almost forgotten the existence of the 01 project in recent years. It can be seen how low-key the 01 project is.

The 01 project was in a factory in the city. The members of the project were surprised when they saw Chu Yun coming, so they quickly stopped the work.

Liu Rushi only talked about this to Chu Yun yesterday, and Chu Yun said he wanted to come and check it out. She didn't expect that Chu Yun would come the next day!

"I heard that computers have made great progress, so come and take a look." Chu Yun said.

Perhaps people in this era cannot understand how important the things they have developed are, but they just treat them as a computing tool.

But Chu Yun has an unimaginable feeling for things like computers.

He didn't care much about the 01 project before, and he didn't completely forget it.

But Chu Yun believes that it is difficult for people of this era to develop computers in his lifetime.

When he knew that the prototype of the computer was about to appear, he couldn't help but look forward to it.

After years of experience, Liu Rushi has now become the head of the 01 project, leading Chu Yun in front.

In fact, it is not necessary for Liu Rushi to lead the way, Chu Yun could see the computer placed in the factory at a glance.

Compared with the personal computers of descendants, this is a general computer with the purpose of calculating ballistic trajectories, and the earliest form of computers.

It's so big, it looks like rows of iron cabinets!

30 tons of general purpose computer!

Chu Yun saw the layout of the computer room, and was also shocked by the scene in front of him.

He underestimated human wisdom too much. As long as he found the right direction and had a theoretical foundation, scientific workers could overcome various difficulties and make arguments.

Whether it is Eastern or Westerners, they can achieve fruitful results in an atmosphere of encouraging science.

Liu Rushi introduced: "So far, 15,000 electronic tubes, 5,700 switches, 6,000 resistors, and 9,000 capacitors have been used... We expect to use more electronic components to achieve our goal. The estimated power consumption is 140 kilowatts."

Chu Yun took a deep breath. He never thought that the earliest general-purpose computers needed so many electronic components. He obviously had no idea about general-purpose computers, so he let the young students explore.

Now the young students who participated in the research have entered middle age, each of them has started their own families, and general computers have also achieved results.

Chu Yun is very impressed by this group of silently dedicated technical workers. They have been committed to a study that no one knows the results, and diodes and transistors have emerged because of the research of general-purpose computers.

So Chu Yun announced: "I have nothing to repay your contribution. When the world's first general-purpose computer is put into use, I will make people adjust your treatment."

The members of the 01 project team were excited, and they all knew that the adjustment of the treatment would definitely be made.

"This is what you deserve." Chu Yun never said about the treatment of technicians.

Just as Li Jinde hired a high salary to help his chemical factory develop new products, Chu Yun also gave technicians and scholars higher treatment as much as possible.

In Chu Yun's eyes, those who talk freely should be valuable than those who contribute to the transformation of the world.

Liu Rushi took Chu Yun to visit the entire factory up close.

"I think the earliest group of members who participated in the 01 project have already started their families and businesses. Do you, the project leader, have no belongings yet?" Chu Yun has known Liu Rushi for more than 20 years, and since Liu Rushi left Jiangnan, he has not started his family.

"No." Liu Rushi sighed slightly.
Chapter completed!
