When the experts from the 937 Institute learned the news, they cheered with joy and immediately picked up the phone to contact the delivery and escort matters.
After nearly half a year of talent recruitment, the institute actually recruited several Longxia researchers related to computer science from abroad.
However, Xu Jianguo had no connection with these people. In his opinion, this group of scientific researchers still needed to be investigated, and with their current computer knowledge, they would not be of any use for the time being.
Moreover, Xu Jianguo was also considering whether to use the few remaining system points to exchange himself for a computer-related talent skill.
However, the moment this thought came to his mind, Xu Jianguo couldn't help but curse himself in his heart, thinking that his bad habit of worrying too much had come back again.
He is not the only scientific researcher in Longxia Country. Why does he have to take on so much responsibility? Isn't it better to leave the opportunity to others?
Besides, even if he himself can't do it, there is Xu Shisi, a technical master, in the space, so why should he worry about it!
After Xu Jianguo gave himself a good scolding in his heart, he immediately felt much better and stopped paying attention to computer matters.
Just like that, with one hundred brand new computers being delivered to the 937 Institute, the research projects on computers, the Internet and supercomputing were officially launched.
Xu Jianguo just ran over to take a look when the computer came, joined in the fun for a while, and then returned to his office.
…
The time came to December 1981.
Through the joint efforts of a group of scientific researchers from the 937 Institute, the domestically produced new stepper lithography machine developed by Xu Jianguo (copied) was successfully launched, and it broke through the 100-nanometer mark in one fell swoop. It was named and shocked the whole world (salute to the mother of Loongson!).
Due to the special properties of the lithography machine, Longxia Country did not register for international patents, which aroused suspicion and ridicule from many Western countries.
In response to this, the official strategy adopted by Longxia State was to ignore it, and also directly issued a statement stating that it would not sell lithography equipment to any country, but could sell chips.
However, some countries that had previously made particularly strong noises were directly put on the blacklist by Longxia’s Ministry of Commerce, indicating that no transactions would be conducted with them. These included the United States, South Korea, and the United States.
After this statement was issued, the above-mentioned countries immediately launched a strong condemnation, saying that the development of science and technology is the common progress of mankind, and that Longxia's actions are standing in opposition to the entire world.
Xu Jianguo naturally noticed this matter, but after reading the relevant reports in foreign media, he just sneered and wanted to make an international gesture to them.
In addition to some countries led by the United States, there are also some countries that are very interested in Longxia's chip products, including Sulian, the United States and India.
Following the statement issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, numerous inquiry letters came in like snowflakes. After a series of screening, the first batch of more than a dozen countries will arrive in Longxia Kingdom in March next year to officially start bilateral trade negotiations.
Due to Xu Jianguo's outstanding contributions to domestic lithography machines and chips, after a joint application from the 937th Institute and the Military Industry Research Institute and a review by the Red Wall West Hall, a group of central leaders decided to award him the highest honor of Longxia Country, the Medal of Defending the Country. At the same time, his military rank was promoted to Lieutenant General, the level of Deputy Commander of a Military Region, and he retained his position as a special agent in the Central Guard Bureau.
Originally, Xu Jianguo's military service was not enough to qualify for promotion to major general and lieutenant general, but the old men owed him a favor and drank a lot of both century-old medicinal wine and nutrient solution made from black Tai Sui. In addition, Xu Jianguo's contribution was indeed unmatched. In the end, the old man gave the order and voted directly by raising hands, and it was passed unanimously.
Moreover, the highest honor of Longxia Country, the Medal of National Defense, is not something that anyone can get. Anyone who possesses this medal has made significant contributions to the country.
For example, those great masters who grew mushrooms in the desert back then all had this medal, but it was unknown to outsiders. Xu Jianguo was destined to be the same as these heroes, and his name might never be known to others.
When Xu Jianguo received a call from the old man in the west hall of the red wall, he was completely stunned. He was still a little dazed even after hanging up the phone.
"It's increased again already?" Xu Jianguo muttered softly.
But on second thought, the last time he was promoted in military rank was in 1971. That year, the Sky Punishment attack drone he developed was highly praised by a group of old men in the central government, and he was directly awarded the rank of major general.
"Time flies so fast. I didn't expect that ten years have passed in a flash." Xu Jianguo thought to himself. He decided not to tell his family about this matter for the time being, and would give them a surprise after he changed his epaulettes.
In addition to breakthroughs in lithography machines and chips, the 937 Institute has also made considerable progress in other areas.
First of all, in the field of computers, through the efforts of overseas embassies and consulates and national security, a large number of Longxia scientific researchers have returned to the embrace of the motherland with their families. Many of them originally chose to leave their hometown to escape the war. Now, because of the excellence of their children and grandchildren, they are back to their hometown after a long absence, and they are very pleased.
After this group of professionals returned to China, Longxia's computer research speed accelerated instantly. In just half a year, the relevant technologies had been applied to many industries.
These include CNC machine tools, satellite remote sensing commands and main controls for ocean-going cargo vessels.
In addition to advances in computers, the research progress of the 937 Institute's supercomputing R&D laboratory has also made a qualitative leap due to breakthroughs in domestic chips, achieving a computing speed of over 60 million times per second for the first time (a tribute to all the scientific researchers of Galaxy 1).
It has solved a series of problems for the country's meteorological, aerospace and geological exploration departments, and improved overall work efficiency countless times.
As for the Internet Research Center, due to the limitations of computer functions, it is still at a standstill for the time being.
However, this situation should not last too long. As the popularity of computers increases, the Internet will soon connect thousands of households. What Longxia Country needs to do now is to practice basic skills and work hard on computer systems and software and hardware, so that it can soar into the sky when the time comes.
