The Soviet Union's computer technology was actually not much worse than that of the United States.
In 1978, Soviet scientist Edwin Babeyan led a team to develop the world's first superscalar computer, Elbrus-1. Elbrus was named after Mount Elbrus, the highest peak in both the Soviet Union and Europe. This name clearly reflects the immense pride the Soviets held in Elbrus-1 at the time.
While Babeyan was developing the ELbrus-3, the Soviet Union had also completed the design of the 32-bit EL-90 microprocessor.
The person in charge of this project is Vladimir Pentkovsky.
However, amid political turmoil, research funding for the elbrus-3 project was suddenly cut off. Vladimir Pentkovsky, who had previously chosen to immigrate to the United States, joined Intel Corporation and became Intel's chief CPU engineer, bringing with him the advanced technologies developed by the elbrus team.
Some have speculated that Intel's Pentium processor was named after Pentkovski. In fact, after Pentkovski went to the United States, the Elbrus team had no idea what he was doing. His name didn't appear in a technical publication until 1999.
Zhao Ye came to Loongson mainly to meet with Vladimir Pentkovsky and the elbrus team.
Yes, that's right. In this lifetime, Vladimir Pentkovsky and his Elbrus team were recruited by the Boundless Group, dramatically changing history!
On his way to Loongson Technology, Zhao Ye felt a surge of excitement. Recalling the life and achievements of Vladimir Pentkowski, he murmured to himself, "In my past life, Vladimir Pentkowski and others worked for Intel, making Intel the first company in the Western world to adopt superscalar architecture technology, which later ushered in its golden age, making it a leader in the Western world. However, in this life, Intel doesn't have that opportunity. The superscalar architecture technology brought by Vladimir Pentkowski and others will belong to Loongson Technology..."
Soon, Zhao Ye arrived at Loongson Technology and met with Vladimir Pentkovsky and others. He showed a respectful attitude towards talent and entrusted Vladimir Pentkovsky with an important task, appointing him as the chief CPU engineer.
To be honest, there aren't many people in Loongson's CPU division who are capable of taking on major responsibilities. The addition of Vladimir Pentkovsky has undoubtedly greatly strengthened the CPU division's R&D capabilities.
However, Loongson has appointed multiple chief CPU engineers, Vladimir Pentkovsky being just one of them, as their research areas differ. Based on actual usage needs, Loongson's chips are subdivided, using modular design within the Loongson framework, resulting in chips for PCs, mobile phones, servers, industrial applications, and so on…
During this period, more and more Soviet talents joined China, many of whom were top experts in their respective fields, mainly engaged in research in areas such as chips, computers, communications, precision machining, materials, chemicals, aerospace, and engines.
The addition of these talents has greatly alleviated the shortage of scientific research personnel in Wujiang Group.
At this time, European and American countries had not yet begun large-scale poaching of people from the Soviet Union, but instead laid conspiracies and schemes against the Soviet Union in the financial field.
I wonder if the rumored Vantaa Project is true, and whether it plundered hundreds of trillions of dollars from the Soviet Union?
While this data is questionable, there is no doubt that the Western world has certainly made a lot of money.
Zhao Ye did not take this opportunity to do these things, as he did not want to become the executioner who dismantled the Soviet Union, which would not be consistent with the persona he had established in the Soviet Union.
Zhao Ye values the talent of the Soviet Union. If the Soviets who joined the Wujiang Group knew that the Wujiang Group was also one of the executioners, would they still be willing to stay and work for the Wujiang Group?
Moreover, competing with Western countries for food might bring trouble upon ourselves.
...
In the early 1990s, there were already many middlemen in China.
Among them, the largest middleman was Xinghai Trading Company.
Xinghai Trading collapsed, and the middlemen profited handsomely...
After Xinghai Trading ceased its trade with the Soviet Union, other traders' businesses immediately boomed.
On this day, many traders gathered at Xinghai Trading Company. A few days earlier, Xinghai Trading Company had extended invitations to the more powerful traders, saying that there were important matters to discuss.
Before the gathering even started, the middlemen, who knew each other well, began chatting.
"Boss Xue, what do you think Xinghai Trading Company is trying to do by calling us middlemen here to discuss business?"
"Sigh, how would I know! Speaking of which, Xinghai Trading Company is strange. They suddenly gave up on trade with the Soviet Union. How much money must they have lost!"
"Hehe, isn't it good that it gave up? Before, we could only have soup, but now we can eat meat!"
"Haha, that's true. Hopefully, Xinghai Trading will stop trading with the Soviet Union, then we can make a fortune..."
Shortly after, Ye Zhiqiang, the general manager of Xinghai Trading Company, walked into the lobby.
The lobby quickly quieted down after his arrival.
Ye Zhiqiang walked to the head of the table, bowed to everyone, and greeted them: "Hello everyone, I am Ye Zhiqiang, the general manager of Xinghai Trading Company. Thank you all for gracing us with your presence and attending the gathering hosted by Xinghai Trading Company!"
"Mr. Ye, you're too kind. It's an honor for us to attend this gathering hosted by Xinghai Trading!" The traders quickly stood up and responded very politely.
