Chapter 218 Robots engage in scientific research(1/2)

.

Xiao Qiang's production factory in Europe adopted fully automated production, which was originally his helpless move, but unexpectedly, the final result was unexpectedly successful.

As a large enterprise, the automation factory not only reduces the number of workers and does not have to pay tens of thousands of employees' wages every month. Moreover, since the reliability of the automation assembly line is much higher than that of manual operation, it always works with the highest efficiency. As a result, the quality of the finished land is also very high, and the rework rate has always been maintained at a low level, which greatly reduces product costs.

The automation of this production equipment is so high that even in the workshop, ordinary workers are recruited, there is no suitable position for him. All the workers in German companies are not ordinary people.

Of course, Xiao Qiang made great efforts to establish this set of automated assembly line.

On the assembly line, the single mobile robot arm is not large in size. All of them are reorganized with his superpowers.

Otherwise, investment in automation equipment alone will make manufacturers yell at the urge to be unable to bear it.

Now that he saw that the automation instrument has such outstanding effect, he couldn't help but think about how to tap its potential. He could make high-precision automation instruments play a greater role in research and production.

Xiao Qiang had not approved a single document for one morning. He sat in a swivel chair, facing the floor-to-ceiling glass wall, and looking at the sky outside, the company was in a daze.

Lin Yi saw his actions and knew that he was thinking about something.

Every time he has any new moves, he will face the window stupidly, sit all day long, or stare blankly for several consecutive days.

When he woke up from the state of divine deity, he said that it would not take long before a scientific research project would pop out of his mind.

Lin Yi walked over quietly, picked up the documents on his desk, and prepared to move them to his desk to review them for him.

As a result, Xiao Qiang's daze lasted for a short time this time and immediately took action.

"Xiaoyi. You inform Austin, Qin Yunqiang, Yao Can, and Xiao Jin to come over. By the way, let Yao Can and Xiao Jin bring one of the experts who are proficient in their department, too;"

Qin Yunqiang is the director of the company's discipline coordination committee.

After the company was established at the end of 1988, he was elected by everyone and served as director for five years. When the director was elected in 1994 and 1995, the researchers wanted to choose a new face, and were replaced by others for two years. Later, the company's researchers felt that his work was better and he helped scientific researchers more. Since 1996, he returned to this position.

Xiao Jin is the head of the company's automation instrument department and has been the deputy of Wang's construction site.

Yao Can is the general manager of the photonic computer project. He is in charge of the research and development of photonic computers, spanning several disciplines such as photoelectronics, automation, computers, materials, etc., and coordinating the work of various departments.

Xiao Qiang waited for a while, but the first one to arrive was not Austin who was working on the same floor with him, but Yao Can.

Austin is responsible for the specific management of the company. As the world is getting bigger and bigger, his work is getting heavier and heavier. He is so busy that he can't beat the back of his head. How could Xiao Qiang be as leisurely as Xiao Qiang? Even if he wants to come over, he has to deal with the things at hand first.

Qin Yunqiang was selected for two years and cherished this hard-won opportunity even more. He was busy every day to coordinate work in various disciplines, and he had to do his best than when he was the director.

Yao Can didn't expect that he was the first to arrive. Regarding what Xiao Qiang asked him to come over. He knew it well, so naturally the boss wanted to ask about the progress of the research and development of photon computers.

The photonic computer project was established at the end of 1994. In a blink of an eye, the project team has been established for nearly five years.

Over the years, the boss knew the arduous work of this work and never interfered with their work. He just instructed the discipline coordination committees of previous places to strongly support this project. They asked for money, people, and help from outside. The discipline coordination committee worked tirelessly. They traveled around the country and the world, and negotiated with other units and companies to purchase each other's skills without complaints.

But until now, they have spent money like water and have not reported a happy greeting to their boss!

Everyone in the project team started to be arrogant because of the company's special preferential treatment and showed off their work in front of their colleagues, which was so important to the company's future. Later, because they were unable to produce results, they shrank all day long and felt embarrassed to come forward to say hello when they saw their colleagues.

Everyone was holding back their energy and wanted to do something practical.

Every day, people from the Photon Computer Research Group go to work the earliest and get off work the latest, and often work overtime on holidays.

But this photon computer is always like the clouds around the sky. It can be seen, but it can never touch it. Until today, scrapped parts and verification machine models can be piled up in a warehouse. They still haven't created a photon computer that can barely be put into use.

Yao Can and the project chief engineer Ou Hongbo agreed when they came in. The two of them were still sitting behind everyone honestly and shamelessly, not to attract attention. But as soon as they opened the door, they stood there - they were the only ones. They arrived first!

"Mr. Yao, Chief Engineer Ou. You are here, come in quickly. Sit down and talk." Xiao Qiang warmly greeted them on the sofa in a corner of the office room and asked Lin Yi to pour tea for them.

Yao Can and Ou Hongbo look at me, I look at you, it seems that the boss is not angry, and it doesn’t seem like he wants to sue them.

Although Xiao Qiang's expression looked very kind, the two were still ashamed. They fell half of their butt on the sofa, put their hands on their knees, and lowered their eyebrows. The two technology workers who were nearly 100 years old together did not dare to show off in front of Xiao Qiang.

Xiao Qiang saw that they were nervous and talked to them about some interesting things about him when he went abroad, which did not add more mental pressure to them.

A few minutes later, Xiao Jin brought the high-level engineer of the automation department, Youshan, and rushed up.

As soon as Xiao Jin entered the door, he didn't act like a young wife like Yao Can and the others, and he screamed in pain at Xiao Qiang: "Mr. Xiao, come to me, are you going to give me some tasks again, right?

You don’t know how heavy our task is now! In the precision instrument company, Lao Bai was urging his life every day, so he asked us to process various parts for him. The optoelectronics department recently launched a drone project, asking us to make engines for them. The last time we built the automation production lines for Europe, although most of the robotic arms were processed by you to foreign companies, the optical guide rails and production lines were so busy that we were so busy.

I heard that the response in Europe was very good. Austin grabbed me yesterday and asked me to make a set of our own experimental factory.

God, I want to break a person into two petals now. No, four petals are enough! My Mr. Xiao, just let me breathe!"

Lu Youshan behind him also touched his nose and smiled.

In the company, the automation instrument department is the busiest and the most complicated.

Computers, instruments, optoelectronics, biology, and other departments need their assistance, and they don’t let go if they catch it. They also have scientific research projects to do, and scientific researchers go to work. Every day, they are like gyroscopes, and they can’t stop when they turn.

The two saw Yao Can and Ou Hongbo huddled aside, and pretended not to see it.

For the photonic computer project team, the annual funding is open, and other departments are required to assist the most. The discipline coordination committee supports them the most and the boss pays the most attention, but they do not achieve results after several years. Many departments of the company are very dissatisfied.

The automation department has several senior engineers with the best technical strength, including two chief engineers, who are still in the photonic computer project team. Seeing that they are so busy with work, but they can't come back, Xiao Jin and others have a lot of opinions.

Seeing Yao Can and the others, it was enough to not roll their eyes. Don’t think of giving them a good look.

The office door was pushed open, but the Austin didn't come in. The voice came first: "Okay. I was outside and I heard you Xiao Jin talking bad things about me. I saw that you were really tight in. I was going to recruit a few people for you, "Hmph, since that's the case, then forget it!"

Austin used to speak Chinese. After so many years at Universal Company, he has been dealing with Chinese people every day. The more he speaks Mandarin, the more he pronounces it, and the pronunciation is extremely standard. Through the door, no one can hear it. He is talking, and he is the second person in the company, an American!

He also married a Chinese wife last year and officially became a son-in-law from someone else's house.

However, his wife was not a researcher. She was a female college student in the market development department and a native of Beijing. The two often met because of work reasons. I don’t know if they fell in love over time or if he took the initiative to hook up. As a result, they became the son-in-law of Beijingers. Then they took the initiative to go to meet their father-in-law and mother-in-law. As soon as they met, they rashly called the two elders "Dad and Mom!" and they scared the old couple. They almost called the police.

When Xiao Jin heard that he wanted to increase their manpower, he laughed with Lu Gaogong so much that he couldn't see him. He kept serving tea and water to Austin, and was extremely attentive.

Yao Can looked at the other colleagues and made great contributions to the company. Only their project team has become synonymous with eating nothing. He was very disappointed and sat quietly aside without saying a word.

Xiao Qiang took everyone's application seriously. Others, including Austin, seemed to dislike Yao Can and the others, and they also learned the Chinese's way of saying hello. With a fake smile, they were not sincere at all.

It's no wonder. Although Austin has become half a Chinese, he still has the essence of American capitalists from the bottom of his bones. He only sees money invested in it. He can't see any results, so why doesn't he annoy him?

So much money is just thrown into the water. You can still hear a sound!

He was joking for a while and clapped his hands: "Okay, today I'll ask everyone to take the time to take care of some things. I want to ask for your opinions. But before that, I want to hear Team Leader Yao talk about the research on photon computers. To be ashamed, I personally designated this project to be launched, but I haven't been concerned about it for many years. I'm really a bit dereliction of duty. I'd like to ask my colleagues in the project team to forgive me!"

Yao Can said his name first when he heard that he was the first to call him, and even apologized for not caring enough. He was so moved that his heart was so sad that he almost fell from tears.

In the past two years, their project team has been because my grandmother doesn’t hurt and my uncle doesn’t love her. It’s been a long time since I heard Xiao Qiang’s sincere apology, and my eyes turned red involuntarily.

Like him, there is also Chief Engineer Ou.

The intellectuals were the most emotional. When they heard Xiao Qiang’s sincere concern, General Manager Ou’s construction site burst into tears and choked up and said first: “Mr. Xiao, I haven’t done my job well. Over the years, we have spent a lot of R&D funds from the company and have not even created a practical verification machine. I, as the chief engineer, have to bear the main responsibility! Mr. Xiao, you punish me!"

"Nonsense! The project team leader is me! If you want to say responsibility, I have the greatest responsibility! Mr. Xiao, I have let you down. If you want to beat me, I will be punished. Even if you fire me, I have no complaints. But you can't punish General Engineer Ou. In order to be busy with technical improvement, he worked overtime in the company on New Year's Eve... I saw that he was so busy that he didn't even have to eat a bite of food. He brought him a few bread, but the next day he went, and the bread was kept there, just one foot in front of him. But he didn't have to take a bite of food... Every achievement we have achieved in recent years is the credit of General Engineer Ou, and if he is not missing him, this project will be finished!"

When Yao Can talked about the emotions, he couldn't help but burst into tears and cried bitterly.

Xiao Jin and Lu Hongbo looked at them and couldn't help but sigh.

Although they have a lot of dissatisfaction with the photonic computer project team, they are all in the same company, and because of their work, they have participated in project research many times, so how much hard work the project team members have put in and how hard they feel in their hearts in the past two years.

Xiao Qiang laughed.

He poured out the herbal tea in front of Yao Can and the other two without touching it, got up and brewed a new cup of tea for them and brought it to them.

He said with a smile: "Did I say I should hold who is responsible? You are overly worried! Since you asked you two to take the lead, it means that the company is trusting you and has not taken out a prototype. Then there is no one. So many scientists around the world are working on photon computers. Haven't they come up with a real practical prototype? Besides, after so many years, even if you can't make a prototype, you will always have achievements. I just want to hear what difficulties you have encountered over the years. Let's discuss it. Maybe the three of us, we will work together to solve the problem together?"

Yao Can heard that he did not ask about his grades and asked about his difficulties directly. He was moved and ashamed, and lowered his head and said in a muffled voice: "The difficulties we have encountered over the years..."

"Yao Can!" Xiao Qiang interrupted his speech and shouted loudly.

"Yes!" Yao Can was so scared that his body bounced and he suddenly stretched out his waist.

Xiao Qiang looked at him angrily and said hatefully: "Look at your appearance, ah, you're chanting your back and talking like an eulogy! Ah, you're chanting me for eulogy, cursing me to die earlier? How old are you today, but there are more than 40 people. Why are you like an old man, and you're not even angry when you speak? I remember you were in the company and had sex with the soldiers. You were so energetic at the beginning? Remember, you are not alone, you are the team leader of the project team! The team leader looks like this. What will the other members of the project team look at and think? They will say: It's over, this project is over! Even the team leader has no confidence. Why do we still do our best? Tell you, if you want to be this team leader, sit up straight and straighten your waist! You have to remember that you will always be a soldier, a soldier! Even if a soldier dies, he will also move forward and not retreat!"

He was only in his twenties, but he mercilessly scolded Yao Can, who was so old that he blushed and was ashamed that he could not find a crack and crawled into the ground.

But Yao Can's waist slowly straightened, just like he was in the company.

"By the way! He's like a soldier! Okay, you continue to say, what are the difficulties in research?" Xiao Qiang nodded with satisfaction and signaled him to start over.

Yao Can looked at Xiao Qiang, paused for a moment, and suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Xiao. There are many difficulties in researching engineering. But I have an idea. I think it is impossible to create a full-photon computer with full performance standards based on modern science and technology! I think that within at least ten to twenty years, if human technology does not develop rapidly, there is no way to create a photon computer that meets people's expectations!"

As soon as he said this, everyone in the office was shocked.

Austin slapped the teacup in his hand on the table and snorted from his nostrils.

The company invested so much and strongly supported it from the perspective of manpower and material resources. You wasted so much money, and finally said: You can't do it. You want to get out of here? It's outrageous!

If you don’t have a diamond, don’t take on porcelain work. If you can’t do it, why don’t you say it early and stop this project early. It’s not long before?

Now I suddenly heard a shout, what's your business?

Chief Engineer Ou Hongbo pulled Yao Can and told him not to talk nonsense. This project was a close contact with Xiao Qiang. In the eyes of the company's employees, he was basically a perfect image of perfection. Didn't Yao Can say this to Xiao Qiang look ugly in person and accus him of commanding randomly?

Yao Can seemed to have woken up by Xiao Qiang scolding. He showed a sense of blood. No matter how Ou Hongbo pulled him, he still looked at Xiao Qiang with his neck in his arms.

"Unrealistic?" Xiao Qiang's expression was strange. He seemed to be smiling, "So. Are you suggesting to cancel this project?"

"No! I don't mean this," Yao Can stared at Xiao Qiang and said firmly, "I have thought about it over the years. Although the current silicon computers have made rapid progress, when the technology has advanced to ten nanometers, they will reach their limit. Future computers must appear between photon computers, quantum computers, and biological computers.

Biocomputer. It is just a laboratory concept. According to my judgment, it is impossible to make progress within at least a hundred years.

I have been lost between quantum computers and photon computers, but later, I found that in some aspects, the two have the same end. For example, in difficult issues such as optical storage technology and photon capture are common.

Over the years, I have conducted in-depth research on several computers, believing that biological computers are the most ideal computers that are closest to the human brain but surpass the human brain. Due to quantum characteristics, quantum computers are an unlimited type of computers in the future. Once it is put into practical use, it will make human technology jump forward for hundreds of years!
