.There is an absolutely forbidden area in Universal Corporation, that is, the Computer Center Building.

One hundred meters around the building, security team members patrolled back and forth, asking unrelated personnel to take a detour. The employees looked up at the building that was even higher than the Universal Building, and only knew that the place was a supercomputer system. But most of them thought that there was only one or two sets here.

They don't understand why the guards here are more tighter than those in underground hangars.

All the researchers in the world received notices of laboratory renovation. They learned the magic of this system from their colleagues in the optoelectronics department, and were naturally envious. However, they thought that all the laboratories in the public use of the same supercomputer system.

Every day, various equipment will be sent to the Computer Center Building.

However, these actions were carried out at night. The clearance and closing of the passing routes before.

Every employee involved in the engineering department of Chaotian Plan has received a ban on disclosing any information about the engineering department to anyone. Those who violate the regulations will be severely punished.

Don't think that the company's warning is ineffective.

Zhang Ke and his intelligence center specifically investigated the subordinates of the department. Their eyes were poisonous. They looked for the company's borers like eagles every day. Earlier, when they started working, they discovered commercial spies from the company one after another and agents sent by other countries. Until now, there has been no decrease in commercial spies trying to invade the company's internal business.

However, since they adopted a special instrument, almost all candidates with other intentions have been eliminated, and no one can get in.

Moreover, the company has issued annual lie detection measures. It has experienced people personally. It is incredible.

All lies are exposed in front of science!

Although the instrument itself cannot detect ideas, it is impossible for any content that needs to be concealed and the tester attempts to get away with lies.

According to people who have participated in the test within the company, there has been no such example of successfully cheating the instrument so far.

Of course, people who really get away with it will not yell loudly. I just cheated on the instrument.

However, this made everyone else feel in awe of this instrument, which gave Zhang Ke and his special investigation department of the intelligence center a complex mood that was indescribable.

Anything happened is fine. Everyone began to avoid the people from the special investigation department. No one dared to take the company's warning as a joke. No one wanted to let the people from the special investigation department look at themselves.

Therefore, although a set of supercomputer systems are put into operation, it seems very calm within Universal Company.

The insider kept silent, and the other people would not ask.

Later, there was a rumor in the company that the computer center actually stored a supercomputer, but an alien spacecraft. This is also the reason why the company's technology has developed so quickly.

There is even a rumor that the company has had contact with aliens for a long time. All the technology is given to us by aliens for free.

The alien land destination is to hope that our ten-ten technologies will develop rapidly to help them repair the damaged spacecraft so that they can return to their human galaxy home.

Researchers engaged in research have smiled at such rumors. All their contributions are clearly recorded in computer archives. The scientific invention uses their research results. They are clearly written. If all achievements are helped by aliens, they will not agree.

But for the staff outside and the workers in the test factory, they completely accepted this statement.

They had never actually participated in the research work, and then, suddenly, the advanced production lines were put into use. New products were produced like magic.

All this is not help from aliens. How can it be explained?

The company ignored such rumors and did not correct them. Zhang Ke and his other special investigation departments also had blind eyes and deaf ears, and had not conducted any investigation into the source of the rumors.

Slowly, this statement was spread from the company to the outside world and was posted online by a troublemaker.

This post titled "The Fifty-first District of China" quickly became popular and was cited by countless websites and netizens.

People need stimulation, let alone stimulation in this way

Although many scientists have criticized such rumors in newspapers, the Internet, and interview programs, and discussed the products invented by Universal Corporation one by one to illustrate that it is not surprising that it has completed such design and production in modern technology. There is no place beyond modern technology.

But the more refutations such as this, the higher the level of scientists speaking. After the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the National Defense Science and Technology Commission jointly looked at the final analysis, they publicly denied the rumors. However, the rumors not only did not stop spreading, but became more and more.

But Universal never comes forward to clarify. As long as the media asks about this, they only have one answer: There is nothing to say about it.

Here, where we can truly understand the truth of the matter, we can only work together to find out the reason. Director Zhou and Vice President Mu of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Only the two of them, accompanied by Xiao Qiangdi, entered the computer center building, which is currently considered the Holy Church of the Universal Company.

As soon as they entered, they saw computer cabinets through the glass, and they were stunned.

At this time, seven supercomputer systems had been completed in the computer center building. The rest were being assembled in a intensive manner. But even if there were only these sets, Director Zhou and Vice President He Jian looked at it.

Then, he stared at Xiao Qiang with the eyes of a prodigal son.

They cannot personally inspect the components used by these supercomputers through the glass wall, nor can they obtain their specific values. But as a scientific researcher, they all know one thing: no matter how advanced the supercomputers are, today with the rapid development of modern technology, they will quickly fall behind and become worthless garbage.

According to Moore's Law, every eighteen months, the performance of components will double and the price will drop by half.

Director Zhou doesn't know Xiao Qiang yet

This kid is born to be easy to show off and needs to use everything best. He invested in building these seven supercomputer systems! Even if these processors and components are all made by Huanyu Company, even if one set is a thousand million, Xiao Qiang's total investment will not be less than 100 million.

If imported chips are used, then this price will drive everyone crazy!

Domestic, no, it is just internationally that if you dare to invest so much money, you will invest so much money. Only Xiao Qiang will create this flashy supercomputer group!

However, these supercomputer systems will be eliminated in up to five years!

How could a prodigal son be like this?

Currently, there are only a few supercomputer systems in China, all of which are used for geophysical research and weather forecasting, which is so luxurious that Universal Corporation is like this. One research unit uses seven supercomputer systems. This is the only one in China.

Even if it is placed abroad, it is quite rare.

Foreign research departments use supercomputer systems to help research and design. They have a history of many years. Especially in the United States, more than 90% of the world's supercomputers are produced in the United States. More than half of them serve various research departments and universities in the United States.

But countries like the United States that rely on supercomputers have not intensively used supercomputers to this point.

They are a research unit, and they are usually just a supercomputer.

Before using each research department, you must first write a report and queue it up in order.

According to the huge investment of Huanyu Company, it would be possible to share a supercomputer system after almost two or three disciplines.

Director Zhou has tried his best to relax the judgment of Xiao Qiang, but he still did not expect that Xiao Qiang's approach was even more extreme than he expected: he prepared his own supercomputer system for every discipline. All laboratories are connected to supercomputer systems. Normal experimental projects can obtain data in a timely manner.

Some large-scale computing projects will be reserved for large-scale computing supercomputers to perform data operations on them.

From the early December 1993 that the supercomputer system was officially put into operation, to the mid-January of January 1990, Director Zhou and Vice President Mu came to Huanyu Company. In just over a month, the Optoelectronics Discipline Laboratory had almost completed the experiment plan this year. Only a few of them needed to calculate the results with large calculations. They still had to wait for some time to obtain them.

To this end, the optoelectronics department revised the original research plan several times before formulating a new research plan this year!

If at the beginning, when I heard Xiao Qiang wanted to study photonic computers, the optoelectronics department still felt a little illusory. Then now, they really saw a glimmer of hope.

Some previously unsolved topics are getting new research data one by one with the help of supercomputers. Based on this data, they can immediately propose new improvement plans, conduct new research and experiments, and overcome these difficulties. Obviously, it is no longer out of reach!

Their current research bottleneck is no longer how many experiments are needed to get results, but how to improve the production process.

Yang Guoli is assisting software engineers in preparing specialized research software.

This time, the software engineer will compile a simulation software based on the various components and specific properties of various materials obtained in the database in the early stage.

In the future, scientific research and research personnel will work mainly to synthesize materials in this simulation software, calculate whether these simulated synthetic materials can achieve the required functions. Only after that will they conduct real experiments based on the simulation effect.

This policy software will be continuously improved in research (wap, 16 k, cn is updated the fastest).

I believe that when it is perfected, scientists can completely avoid entering the laboratory and obtain real and reliable data.

At that time, they entered the laboratory and no longer wanted to test whether their ideas were correct. Instead, they created physical objects according to the process they had already been familiar with in the simulation environment!

Director Zhou and the others did not understand the end use of Xiao Qiang's preparation for these supercomputers, but it did not hinder their imagination of what effect these supercomputers could achieve.

The two apologized to Xiao Qiang. They quickly walked to the end of the corridor and discussed for a long time.

When they came back, Director Zhou looked at Xiao Qiang, coughed for a moment, and said in a gentle tone: "That. Xiaoqiang, this, we are asking for a study. Ah, this, we..."

They all know how much Xiao Qiang invested in this supercomputer.

Huanyu Company is a domestic research unit and has done enough for the military industry department. He feels very embarrassed to let the other party pay.

Director Zhou's face turned red and hesitated for a long time, but he couldn't say a complete sentence.

He stared at Vice President Mu with his eyes, but Vice President Mu felt even more embarrassed than him. He lowered his head to look at his toes, but he just didn't raise his head.

Judging from their appearance, Xiao Qiang doesn't understand anything else.

He pondered for a moment. Twenty sets of systems, and all his strength was to meet the research needs. It was not a problem to draw one set, so he asked: "Can I ask. What kind of project is this? If it really matters, we will make a little sacrifice. Let's set aside time for you. Do an operation once."

"We are studying the project of the Earth Ten fighter. There are many calculation projects in it, including the aircraft's appearance design aerodynamic calculation, as well as the engine design simulation test, and the engine alloy land formula test, many, many, if a supercomputer system can be specially drawn, it would be great to help us!"

Director Zhou's face was a little red, and Xiao Qiang agreed to help with the calculation. But he didn't say that he would draw a set to help the designers of the No. 10 fighter jet, and take up the entire process.

Project No. 10 started in the mid-1980s, but we need to trace the root cause. We can also push forward to the early 1980s when the dismounted J-9 was dismounted.

The original intention of J-9 was to develop a high-altitude high-speed ground fighter. It belonged to the design idea of ​​the second-generation fighter. The J-8 was also launched at the same time. However, unlike J-8, which simply magnified the J-7, J-9 completely redesigned a new aircraft and adopted a duck-style layout.

However, because the J-8 was successfully developed first, the 611 Institute, which developed the J-9, was insufficient technical force and was unable to complete the design for a long time. After the reform and opening up, it was forced to dismount.

By the mid-1980s, the design idea of ​​high-speed high-speed J-8 was obviously unable to keep up with the changes in the situation. In modern air combat, we could only rely on the original outdated J-6 and J-7 to face the third-generation fighter jets abroad, which was no longer able to do so.

Faced with the real needs, the military proposed to design a light-support fighter. After striving for the 611 Institute, its duck-style layout plan was finally recognized in 1986.

However, with the continuous emergence of advanced foreign fighter jets,

The military's requirements for Project No. 10 are also constantly changing.

! After many modifications, the military has many requirements, requiring No. 10 fighter jets to be able to achieve,

!It is best to exceed the existing third-generation foreign fighter jets; it must have large radius combat capabilities; it must improve the thrust-to-weight ratio to adapt to the requirements of rapid acceleration in medium and low altitude levels. It must also have certain high-altitude supersonic hovering capabilities; the attack method highlights the idea of ​​over-visual combat; the weapon carrying platforms are diversified. On the basis of completing air combat missions, it also takes into account the combat against the enemy...

So many requirements are very demanding.

The development of the 611-1 institute has not yet been on track. The improvement of the Super Seven fighter jets has also been brought forward. Due to the fact that Xiao Qiang provided some core chips and the progress of the Super Seven is smoother than expected. In order to accumulate research on Western fighter jets, the 611-1 institute has devoted its main energy to the Super Seven, which is later the Fc_1.

After successfully completing the development of the Fc_1 site, the 611 Institute had not yet taken a breath. It received a request from the military to urge the acceleration of the development of the No. 10 fighter jet.

The reason why the military is so anxious is because they did not expect that the 611 Institute could complete the fe_1 so quickly.

Moreover, according to the test data and the test pilot's report, the low-altitude combat capability of this fighter is very close to that of the current third-generation fighter in the international arena. The combat radius, maneuverability, and carrying platform are greatly improved compared to the existing fighter jets. In terms of performance, it should be only slightly inferior to the US F16.

When it comes to weaknesses, it is still focused on airborne radar, electronic equipment, materials, and weapons.

The original drawings of the fc_1 ground-based radar were purchased from Israel in the 1970s maps. The f16 has been upgraded repeatedly and its radar performance has been leaping up again and again. Therefore, although our ground-based radar is much more advanced than ever before, it is actually lagging behind before it was released.

If Xiao Qiang had not given strong support to the Precision Electronics Research Institute and allowed them to obtain a large number of advanced chips and could complete radar design in advance, this project would have died halfway through, and it would have been very likely.

But fortunately, the Precision Electronics Institute delivered the goods in advance. In addition, it obtained a large amount of data and accumulated rich experience in the reverse grounding process, creating prerequisites for the development of our own ground radar in the future.

The difference in materials is that our alloy materials are not yet up to standard. The fuselage still uses traditional materials and technologies. The body weight increases, which reduces the number of weapons carried by the fighter and reduces the combat performance of the aircraft.

Carrying weapons is a long-standing disaster for the Chinese Air Force.

Due to the long-term backward thinking, we have repeatedly emphasized melee combat and carried forward the courage of "striking bayonets in the air".

It is undeniable. This idea has practical significance in the 1950s, 1960s, and even the early 1970s. We have never cancelled the earth artillery, and it is a very powerful ground weapon in melee combat.

Therefore, our air-to-air missiles mainly focus on replicating foreign short-range missiles.

However, with the rapid development of foreign electronic technology, a large number of high-precision weapons have been developed one after another. Especially the emergence of medium-range air-to-air missiles with a range of dozens of kilometers has allowed us to be attacked by the first wave of air-to-air weapons in the ground and air.

Although there are still some people in the Air Force who claimed that even if the opponent launched the first wave of attacks, when we approached the opponent, we still had to launch close combat, but even children knew that we were suffering from the first wave of attacks from the enemy. This kind of air combat put us at an extreme disadvantage from the beginning.

The military exercises at the end of 1987 proved that the performance of the ground fighter equipped with medium-range air-to-air missiles will jump to a level.

Since the end of 1988, we finally began to develop our own medium-range air-air missiles, but the radar search system is lacking. Rocket aircraft engines are insufficient and there is a lack of various corresponding technical support. The development process of medium-range air-air missiles has been difficult.

This results in the fact that the Earth Fc_1 with a detection range of tens of kilometers is still not a good medium-range air-to-air missile.

Air cannons and short-range air-to-air missiles are still the main weapons of air combat!

Comparing it with fc_1 and f16 is like two people with strong bodies and reactions similar. One is holding a dagger in his hand and the other is holding a big knife. Although he dare not say that the dagger will be defeated, it is obvious that the landlord has a greater advantage.

When Fc_1 was exported to Pakistan, the other party did not ask for a missile. Instead, he turned to the United States and ordered a large number of ground sparrow missiles. It was standard for Fc_1 ground.

This cannot be said to be an embarrassment for China's military industry.

But no matter what, no one can deny that.fc_1 is the best and most advanced fighter in our country at present!

The military saw that the 611 Institute could complete the research and development of an advanced fighter so quickly. They all hoped that the No. 10 fighter, which was more powerful than the FC_1, could be launched as soon as possible.

The 611 Institute just sent off FC_1 and put in more heavy work.

As the 611 Institute, which has transformed from old-style design ideas to new ideas, is still working hard to digest the experience absorbed from fc_1. This progress is so fast that I can't get faster. There are constant problems.

The interaction between duck layout and wings makes the fuselage design more difficult than imagined.

Aircraft research and development must go through multiple steps such as design, modeling, wind tunnel testing, pre-research, trial production, testing, and finalization. The aircraft design software imported from abroad is used for designing using computers.

However, the complex pneumatic data calculation is very large. Ordinary servers cannot afford such a large amount of data calculation.

If we follow the previous aircraft design process, we should first create a model, conduct wind tunnel testing, constantly find problems, and then solve problems. This development process will naturally be extremely slow and the effect may not be ideal.

The delay in progress in the development work has also caused Director Zhou a great headache.

Universal has supercomputers, and it has been tacitly understood by both parties.

But that refers to the three giant machines that were first built.

With these three systems, Universal Company maintains the operation of Universal Network and cannot stop for a second. How can it be used for other purposes?

This time I came to Huanyu Company, I originally wanted to see if there were any alien flying saucers, but I accidentally discovered so many of them. Director Zhou became active and planned to ask Huanyu Company to support it and help the aircraft design of the June 11th Institute and even more.

Xiao Qiang has also heard of the No. 10 fighter jet.

To help domestic research institutions develop advanced fighter jets in my country.

Of course he had no objection.

Xiao Qiang thought for a moment and agreed readily: "Okay! Director Gu of the Precision Electronics Research Institute, which is affiliated to the Institute of June 11, and General Manager Yi and others are old friends. Speaking of which, they are also old friends with June 11. It is also necessary to help them complete the aircraft appearance design and do aerodynamic verification. However, how should the cost of boarding the plane be calculated?"

"The fee for the on-board fee" Director Zhou was stunned. Then he quickly said, "Okay, you can offer a price and make an agreement first. Don't ask for the price too high, we are also poor."

Xiao Qiang smiled and said, "I didn't mean to make things difficult for you. To be honest, I prepared these sets of supercomputers for ourselves. In order to support military construction, it is not impossible to do data operations for you. But I have invested so much and can't give you any rewards. I am a businessman. It's not okay to let me do a loss-making business! This is not a business way!"

He was not greedy for these small money. Director Zhou and his friends had to spend a penny of money in half. He couldn't bear it if he wanted too much.

But he couldn't let Director Zhou and others just open a word and occupy the company's resources. This is public and private are private. If you develop a habit, it will be difficult to deal with in the future.

Director Zhou gritted his teeth: "You speak. I'll go back and make a report immediately. As long as it's not too outrageous, we will try our best to meet your requirements."

Xiao Qiang laughed and said, "You don't have to be nervous. I won't let you sell the trouble."

He stretched out his finger and said, "First, we only have a pneumatic expert who is responsible for hard drive research. He cannot draw it out to help you do this design, so you have to send someone to your own programming and simulation testing, and we can also provide enough technical support."

"This is what it should be. This is not a requirement, I can agree immediately!" Director Zhou agreed immediately, "What else does it require?"

"They can't enter the computer center building. We will prepare them a special laboratory. In addition, I hope we can cooperate for a long time. If there are any complicated operations, you can submit an application. We can all lend a supercomputer. The market price is 20% off!"

"20% off..." Director Zhou looked bitter and gasped. "Can you give me a little more discount? You also know that Project No. 10 is a large project, requiring data calculation. Not only the appearance design, and aerodynamic performance verification. Although you have a smaller income at a time, the profit will be considerable in the long run."

He has now figured out Xiao Qiang. When the two met, they bargained with real swords and guns. He also knew that Xiao Qiang was not unpatriotic, but just hated others to take advantage of it for nothing. The more pitiful he said, Xiao Qiang was uneasy and he would take less money.

Sure enough, this time Xiao Qiang also gave in to his poor policy.

"Seventy-five discount! This is the best price. If you go to the international market, you will ask who will be cheaper than mine. They will not do their best to provide software services for you. You all need to compile the programs yourself and run directly on their machines. If there is any problem, it will be counted on you. The money will be collected as much as possible."

Director Zhou was happy and continued to bargain: "Let's get a little more discount. We are indeed short of funds. You also know how important this fighter is to our country. You don't want to see it because of lack of funds. Let this project be discontinued halfway."

Vice President Mu of the Chinese Academy of Sciences was very uncomfortable with their businessmen's behavior, and sucked his teeth and pretended to look at the scenery outside, and the tendons on his neck were tense.

Xiao Qiang gritted his teeth: "It's okay to have a little less, and I can even pay all the No. 10 Project for free, and I can also pay manpower to help you. However, I have a request!"

Director Zhou heard that he was willing to be free. He said hesitantly: "What are the requirements? Let's talk about them first."
Chapter completed!
