Chapter 106 The Sleeping King
Zhou Shuo was startled and waved his hand quickly and said, "Director Yu, don't harm me, I have a partner!"
"Haha." Yu Shunshui smiled casually and nodded, "Just kidding, Principal Zhou, don't mind."
Amid the crackling sound of firecrackers, the 1995 Spring Festival finally came. This was the first Spring Festival after Zhou Shuo was reborn, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.
"Director Huang, I'm here to greet you all!" Zhou Shuo bowed in groups and bowed everywhere.
"Principal Zhou, please sit down quickly!" Huang Shi jumped out of his seat and gave him to the rostrum of the annual meeting of the 64th Institute.
The staff of the 64th Institute below were joking and having fun. Today is the Chinese New Year and they would not talk about work discipline. Everyone no longer took the superiors and inferiors seriously, and they surrounded Zhou Shuo when they saw Zhou Shuo.
"President Zhou, when will we get some projects for our Optoelectronics Research Office? Our Optoelectronics Research Office is the main force of the Sixty-fourth Institute, and the network rooms are all behind us!"
"Wait!" Zhou Shuo Maitreya smiled like Buddha: "I'm not a dormant cat, do you have it if you want to have it?"
It’s no wonder that the employees of these optoelectronics stations are eager. Now the software room and network room are close to Zhou Shuo’s mountain. I won’t talk about the software room. I can’t finish writing all day long, and I even run to the toilet. The network room has no results. During the Chinese New Year, the family even packed a refrigerator! How can this not make the researchers in other laboratories jealous?
"Hey, by the way, why didn't I see the researchers in the Internet lab?" Zhou Shuojing said this, and then he found that there were no researchers in the Internet lab in the conference room.
"They!" The researcher around Zhou Shuo tsk twice and said enviously: "We are still squatting in the laboratory. It is said that it is not considered the New Year before we get off work, and we can still make a day's progress."
Zhou Shuo stood up with a silence, patted his forehead and said, "How can this work be done? Work and rest can be efficient. You must relax when it's time to rest." As he said, he turned his head and said, "Director Huang, you can continue having fun with you, I'll go to the laboratory to take a look."
"Or what, I'll go with you?" Huang Shi didn't lift his butt. He didn't like to go to the Internet room recently. He always felt that his director was becoming less and less prestige when he spoke there.
Zhou Shuo waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Don't, you are the director of the Sixty-fourth Institute, so you still have to grasp the overall situation."
"Haha, that's OK." Huang Shi nodded and said, "I'm waiting for Principal Zhou here, go and come back soon!"
Zhou Shuo bid farewell to Huangshi and a group of 64 employees, came out of the party, and followed the path to the small building of the Internet laboratory.
There was a little noise in the sixty-four courtyards that were originally silent today. The more Zhou Shuo walked towards the network room, the more noisy the sound in his ears. When he walked to the gate of the network room, he almost suspected that he had broken into a beehive.
"Success, success!" A disheveled researcher rushed out of the laboratory building and ran towards Zhou Shuo like crazy.
"What succeeded?" Zhou Shuo grabbed him and asked in disbelief.
"Hey? Principal Zhou, why are you here?" The researcher was stunned, then hugged him and jumped: "It's the cable modem that succeeded! We succeeded!"
Zhou Shuo couldn't believe it after hearing this. How long has it been, the research he had originally expected to complete in half a year was successful in just one quarter of the time? Is this satellite a bit too big?
"Hurry, take me to see." Zhou Shuo grabbed his hand and rushed into the Internet Experimental Building.
At this time, the Internet Experiment Building had already turned into a sea of joy. A group of researchers, either unkempt or sleepy, caught every humanoid creature they saw and went up to cheer and hug, as if not so, not enough to express their excitement.
Fu Xiaochen, director of the Internet Laboratory, was still sober and did not follow the young people to make trouble. When he saw Zhou Shuo, he was still shocked and then smiled and said, "It can be seen that our Internet Department is destined to be Principal Zhou. People say that it is better to come early than to come by. The project research was just successful, and Principal Zhou arrived by himself. It can be seen that this is God's arrangement."
"Director Fu, don't laugh at me. Today is New Year's Eve. If I don't come to visit everyone, am I still an individual?" Zhou Shuo scratched his head and asked anxiously: "How about the specific data of the modem?"
"Okay, that's OK." Director Fu said this question and felt a little reluctant to laugh: "The peak value can reach 1Mbps, mainly because the ARM6 processor we use is too heavy for soft solution. If you want to continue to increase the speed, unless you wait for the new generation of CPUs to be released, you have to use a dedicated integrated circuit."
Zhou Shuo said "yes", and the minimum ideal indicator in his mind should be 2Mbps, but since the current hardware level is not up to standard, there is no need to blame him. After all, for the market, when 14.4Kbps is generally the case, whether it is a 1Mbps network speed or a 2Mbps network speed, it is shocking enough.
Since his rebirth, Zhou Shuo's ideas have gradually deviated from the limitations of a technician. If he did it in his previous life, he would have to pursue the limits of performance, rather than considering putting it on the market when the technology is still immature.
"1Mbps is far more than the modems on the market!" Zhou Shuo smiled and said, "It is up to everyone's efforts to develop it so quickly. If Director Fu is not busy, take me to see the real thing?"
"Okay...." Fu Xiaochen led the way in front, and his smile became a little unnatural.
The two went upstairs to the Internet Laboratory. This was a hall of four or five hundred square meters, filled with various experimental equipment. The noisy sound suddenly calmed down here. Zhou Shuo followed Fu Xiaochen, pushed open the laboratory door, raised his legs and walked in.
As soon as he took a step, he suddenly felt a soft object kicking under his feet, and he was shocked. He quickly took a step back and then he realized that it was a person who fell to the ground and sleeped!
Zhou Shuo was stunned for a moment and looked up at the laboratory. He saw that in the spacious and tidy laboratory last time, spring beds were built up in the corners and corridors of the walls, densely filled with people.
"What's going on?" Zhou Shuo looked at Fu Xiaochen with a bad tone. He has always cared about the experimental environment the most. If a laboratory cannot even keep the experimental environment clean, how can he believe that they can develop excellent and stable technical products?
"This is not something that comrades all hope to complete the experiment as soon as possible. If the family is far away, we will deal with it here." Fu Xiaochen smiled awkwardly and said, "Xiao Wang is responsible for the data pump load experiment. The workload is the largest and the final experiment. This is not that he fell asleep as soon as the result came out."
Zhou Shuo calmed down his anger and walked in gently. All the researchers on the ground were unshaven and unkempt. He had thought this was an individual phenomenon before, but he didn't expect the reason to be here.
"Comrades usually sleep here?" Zhou Shuo asked Fu Xiaochen in a low voice.
Fu Xiaochen also shook his head in a low voice and said, "No, those who have families always have to go back. Many of them are recruited in the past few years. The dormitory buildings of our 64th are still old buildings in the 1970s, and they are far away. Those who don't have families are unwilling to go back. Anyway, where aren't they sleeping?"
"This is the reason why we can complete the entire progress in a quarter of the time!" Zhou Shuo nodded with a sigh.
After walking a few steps forward and leaving a few researchers who were sleeping soundly in the aisle, Zhou Shuo saw the real protagonist here today: the cable modem.
It looks a bit like a quarter-sized VCD machine, two turns larger than later modems. The surface is square, and a row of green LED lights are constantly flashing.
"Still connected?" Zhou Shuo could easily see its operating status from its status light.
Fu Xiaochen nodded proudly and smiled: "We have transformed a data switch to truly simulate the operating environment of the wired network."
"How is the cost?" Zhou Shuo wandered around the platform where the modem worked.
"It costs about 500 yuan." Fu Xiaochen sighed: "The main reason is that the ARM6 CPU is the most expensive, and it is not produced in China and must be imported. But if you don't use it, the performance will be reduced by more than half immediately, which really makes people love and hate."
Zhou Shuo smiled and said, "It's okay, Americans are very rich. Besides, once industrialized production is produced, the cost can be reduced quickly."
"I hope so." Fu Xiaochen didn't care much about this, and casually agreed with Zhou Shuo's words.
"Hey? Director Fu, Principal Zhou!"
Zhou Shuo and Fu Xiaochen didn't pay attention, probably because they spoke and woke up a researcher. With his shout, someone in the laboratory suddenly woke up again.
"It's Principal Zhou who is here. Has the experiment been successful?"
"The experiment was successful?"
"It's almost the same. The Xiao Wang I remember should be the last group."
"Where is Xiao Wangren?"
"Shh!" Fu Xiaochen quickly warned: "Xiao Wang just fell asleep, don't wake him up. The experiment has been successful. Get up quickly and go home. Today is New Year's Eve!"
"The experiment was successful!"
"It's really successful!"
A researcher lowered his voice and exchanged his joy. Although everyone tried hard to lower his voice, a carnival atmosphere still filled the entire laboratory.
"Go out and say, go out and say!" Fu Xiaochen quickly waved his hand to greet everyone and drove them out of the laboratory one by one.
Seeing the other researchers outside smiling happily, everyone really believed that the experiment had been successful and they all hugged their heads and laughed.
As soon as he came out of the laboratory, Fu Xiaochen was like a hen, urging a group of researchers to wash up.
"Hey, wash your face and go back after you finish it. On New Year's Eve, go home quickly for the New Year!"
"Okay, Director, you won't go home for almost a week. Are you afraid that your sister-in-law won't let you in the house?"
"Go, the dog can't spit out ivory, your sister-in-law is feeling sorry for me!"
"Hey, everyone wait!" Zhou Shuo called everyone at the entrance of the laboratory, took out a camera from his backpack and said, "Let's take a family photo, we must keep some souvenirs, right?"
"We have not washed our faces and our beards are not shaved yet. Isn't it good to take photos?"
Zhou Shuo smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? This is your medal!"
