The Red Era, the Opening University Speech

Chapter 294 Cummins 6-cylinder diesel engine
As long as the server can be connected, the request from the personal computer can be sent to the mainframe computer for processing and then fed back.

This is also the basis for his plan to implement a hierarchical task distribution plan.

Professor Bai, who heard his question, reported:

"The experiment went very smoothly, thanks to the help of the network group of the second-generation supercomputer. The network-based research has been almost perfected."

"It's a matter of network stability. It will take some time to debug and experiment."

"We are confident that we can develop it within a month!"

"There's no need to be so anxious. I just came here to ask." Li Mu looked at Professor Bai, who was so excited that he cut his estimated completion time in half, and explained quickly.

There's no need to be so fast.

Even if the transaction between Xia Guo and Big Brother is completed, it will take a lot of time to expedite the delivery of the Type 02 computer.

Not to mention the time it takes to research.

Professor Bai shook his head and said firmly, "Don't worry, Consultant Li, we are confident!"

"Well, okay." Li Mu looked at his expression and didn't say anything more.

Go back and find Wu Youxiang and ask him to keep a close eye on it.

……

Leave the Type 03 personal computer development team.

Li Mu went to the Type 01 operating system R&D group again.

The research here is very stable, the kind that cannot be sped up even if you want to.

After Li Mu instructs them on some issues that need to be paid attention to when writing the operating system, he returned to his office.

Sit behind your desk.

He held a pen in his hand and tapped the table lightly with his index finger.

If it weren't for the "ding~" message prompt sound in his mind, he would have stayed in the Type 01 operating system development team for a while longer.

So it seems that he is thinking, but in fact he is chatting with Ask.

Ask: "Lee, I'm leaving tomorrow!"

"Are you leaving tomorrow? Why don't you stay with the rich girl for a few more days?" Li Mu replied with a smile.

After saying that, he looked at the download page and found that all the information about turboshaft engines had been downloaded without him noticing.

With this information, he will have enough confidence in future experiments.

Ask said, "No, business is more important. When you come, we can play together again."

"Okay, have you decided where to go next?" Li Mu asked again.

Although the rich woman helped Ask find investors, he didn't know where the other party was from.

It's most likely the baby, but it's hard to say.

He didn't dare to ask in detail these days. What if Ask changed his mind after listening and wanted to start his journey as a BOOS earlier? Then he didn't know how long it would take to download all his information.

Ask: "Isn't it a coincidence that it's in Daying, and it's very close to the little rich woman's house."

"It's quite a coincidence." Li Mu was silent for a moment, then replied.

I couldn't help but complain in my heart: "This little rich woman seems a little silly, doesn't she know how to hide it?"

"Yeah, yeah, she said so too, and invited me to her house. She said her cat can do backflips, and I really want to go and see it, it must be cool." Ask said.

Li Mu couldn't help but hold his forehead and sigh.

It seems there is no need to worry at all, this is even more stupid.

A cat that can do backflips, I don’t believe you.

……

End the chat.

Li Mu took out a piece of manuscript paper and continued his research work.

I have been very busy these days and almost forgot about working on the high-horsepower diesel engine and military truck.

Helicopters are too expensive, but trucks are much cheaper.

……

Then, it took an afternoon.

Li Mu took out the design sketch of the Cummins NTC400 6-cylinder diesel engine.

The reason why it was a sketch was because he planned to take it to CAD and CAM to practice.

The overall framework has been established, so even if people make mistakes, they won't be too drastic.

With a little guidance, it can be done.

……

Li Mu walked out of the office.

Just as I was about to look for Wu Youxiang, I saw him coming from the laboratory of the second-generation supercomputer research and development team.

"Director Wu." Li Mu stepped forward and said, "I have an idea for the design of a diesel engine. Please apply to Director Guo and ask him to send some experts in this field."

"Oh, a diesel engine, can I take a look at it?" Wu Youxiang became interested and asked.

Li Mu handed over the manuscript in his hand and said with a smile: "Of course."

It's just a sketch, it's not confidential, there's nothing wrong with seeing it.

However, Wu Youxiang opened the manuscript very seriously and then looked through it.

After reading it, he continued: "The drawing is very well done. Although it is only a sketch, it can be seen that there is a complete idea."

"But why don't you just hand in the blueprints instead of sending someone to our Semiconductor Research Institute?"

"This is a good opportunity to try out CAD and CAM." Li Mu said with a smile.

Hearing this, Wu Youxiang suddenly realized something and couldn't help laughing: "I almost forgot that our semiconductor research institute does not only research semiconductors."

"Looking at the academies of science in all countries, this is probably unique."

"In terms of professionalism, we are definitely not as good as the experts and professors in related fields. Computers are just auxiliary." Li Mu shook his head.

The strange state of the Semiconductor Research Institute is simply a product of the limitations of computer production capacity.

When computers began to become popular in major research institutes and schools and were connected to the Internet, they would naturally split off some less important research.

Wu Youxiang smiled and said, "That's hard to say. No one knows what the Semiconductor Research Institute will become in the future."

"Besides, with you as a living signboard, even other research institutes in the Chinese Academy of Sciences are not as attractive to everyone as our institute."

Li Mu thought about it and it seemed to be true.

……

After handing the drawings of the high-horsepower diesel engine to Wu Youxiang.

Li Mu came to the cafeteria and solved the problem of dinner.

I stayed for another two hours in the evening, wandering around the various laboratories.

But there won't be any big problems for the time being.

At around 9 o'clock, I rode my bicycle back to the special building.

Just as he was about to enter the gate, he was stopped by the guard, who said, "Advisor Li, there is a letter for you."

"Thank you, you've worked hard." Li Mu took the envelope and walked towards home.

The letter was sent by Lin Zhizhou from Southwest Agricultural University.

The last time he intentionally or unintentionally proposed the idea of ​​improving rice varieties, he successfully aroused the other party's interest in this area.

In the letter, the other party also directly stated that some attempts had been made based on some of his ideas.

……

As he entered the house, Li Mu finished reading the letter.

To be honest, he admired Lin Zhizhou's initiative. He originally planned to proceed step by step, slowly throwing out information to arouse the other party's interest, and then use his hands to try planting.

I didn't expect the other party to be so proactive. He would experiment as soon as he had an idea.

You have to know that this is crop cultivation, and the experimental cycle is at least measured in months. Once it fails, all efforts will be wasted.

"Since Professor Lin has already started the research, there's no need for me to hide it." Li Mu thought about it and decided to give the other party some more ideas on training.

Of course, it is impossible to be so specific as to give a training plan.

We can only give some suggestions on suitable growing conditions for pearl dwarfs, as well as advice on water quality management, fertilizer use, and sunshine hours.

The letter was seven or eight pages long, and apart from the greetings at the beginning, it basically contained thoughts on dwarf pearl cultivation.

"I hope you can breed a pearl dwarf." Li Mu put the letter into the envelope and affixed the postmark, thinking silently in his heart.

For a country with a large population, the importance of food issues is self-evident.

But he didn't have enough energy to devote to this undertaking, so he had to leave it to others to complete.

……

Without waiting any longer, Li Mu quickly took the letter and went downstairs, asking the guard to help him send it to the post office.

After doing this, he returned home.

I was just about to go to the study to read a book when suddenly, the phone in the living room rang.

He walked up and answered the phone.

There was a crackling sound of electricity coming from inside, and it was obvious that the signal was not very good.

After waiting for a long time, a voice came: "Advisor Li, we are about to produce the first prototype!"

Upon hearing the news, Li Mu reacted almost instantly.

Opposite him is the director of the Institute of Atomic Power, Shen Zhongyi.

"Congratulations!" he gave his sincere blessings.

Although it was not stated explicitly, it is not difficult to infer from Shen Zhongyi's words that the first prototype of the magnetohydrodynamic thruster was made.

Unlike ordinary mass-produced machines, prototype machines refer to the first batch of machines manufactured according to design drawings during the product development process for experimental or mass-produced prototypes.

Its success means that the magnetohydrodynamic thruster has been verified to be feasible, and its various technical parameters have become stable, so it can be mass-produced!
Shen Zhongyi smiled and said:
“Congratulations to you, Consultant Li. Your contribution is crucial to our success today.”

"By the way, are you interested in coming to Sichuan and Chongqing to witness the final bench test? Even just a day or two would be fine."

"Everyone here wants to meet you, the legendary genius, and learn from you."

"Forget about going to Sichuan and Chongqing. I don't have the time now." Li Mu said helplessly.

It is impossible to say that you are not moved.

That is the power core of the epoch-making submarine. Who wouldn't want to take a look?

But it was indeed a bit too long.

You may not stay for long, but the market price for the round trip alone is at least seven or eight days.

Shen Zhongyi said:

"The regular train will definitely not be able to make it, but you can apply to take the express train."

"In this case, it only takes more than 20 hours to arrive. If it weren't for safety reasons, it would only take a few hours by plane."

"The round trip, including the time spent staying here, will not take more than a week, so it won't interfere with your research."

His tone was sincere.

"It's not appropriate, it's not appropriate. Whether I go or not actually has no impact on you, and it will also take up the country's public resources." Li Mu was still a little hesitant.

Shen Zhongyi laughed and said:

"Advisor Li, what you said is wrong."

"It doesn't matter if it's a special train or a plane. If you want to take it, no one will say anything if you take it every day."

"Leave it to me. I'll help you apply for it."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Li Mu was a little amused and helpless for a moment, as he was afraid that he would regret it.

But that’s fine.

If you think about it carefully, a trip to Sichuan and Chongqing is not without benefits.

……

After hanging up the phone, Li Mu went to the study.

He sat at his desk, thinking about his plans after going to Sichuan and Chongqing.

Witnessing the epoch-making submarine power core is secondary.

If there is a chance, you can also learn about the knowledge related to atomic submarines, which is what I love, and maybe design one yourself in the future.

Going further, submarines are powered by atomic energy, and so are aircraft carriers.

If he could get information from the chat page in the future, he would definitely go for the aircraft carrier.

It’s not that the big mushroom is not useful, it’s just that you can’t use it casually.

Under normal circumstances, sending an aircraft carrier directly to the doorstep of another country to show off its muscles is more deterrent than telling them to throw a big mushroom over there.

"No matter whether I will have the chance to get the information in the future, it's right to be prepared. By the way, I can also investigate the terrain over there to facilitate the overall design of future military trucks." Li Mu thought secretly.

He may not study atomic submarines and aircraft carriers, but he cannot fail to prepare to study them.

"No problem, let's continue to study the wind tunnel." After making the plan, Li Mu quickly put his mind back to studying and researching the wind tunnel.

While Ask is still here, he needs to seize the time to learn about the wind tunnel.

Of course, it is impossible to do as Emperor M does.

He prefers Hong Ru's approach.

However, while reducing costs, safety must also be considered.

"It will be considered a success if not a single building is blown up." Li Mu thought silently.

……

I studied until about 1:.

Li Mu started to get up and move around.

Then as usual, I went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of egg noodles.

It was just finished and before I had time to cover the plate to keep it warm, I heard a "click" sound of a key turning the door lock.

"I'm back." Li Mu walked forward and rubbed Wang Ya's little face, which was a little cold due to the night wind from riding a bicycle.

Wang Ya snorted in dissatisfaction, then threw herself into his warm arms.

"You must be hungry. I cooked noodles for you." Li Mu smiled and rubbed her hair, his eyes full of pity.

Both of them are too busy, and they can only have a moment of tenderness in the morning and evening every day.

"Okay." Wang Ya then raised her head, touched her stomach, walked to the table and started eating noodles.

Li Mu sat next to her and said, "By the way, I might have to go to Sichuan and Chongqing in a while, do you want to go?"

"Is it about work?" Wang Ya stopped eating noodles and looked up.

The rosy lips were stained with the milky white noodle soup, which looked quite delicious.

Li Mu said without changing his expression:
"Yes, let's go to the research institute over there to exchange ideas."

"We are developing rapidly in semiconductors, computers and software, but other places are still catching up with Emperor M and Big Brother."

"You have experience in several fields, so you can go over and teach them."

"Don't give me that." Wang Ya couldn't help but roll her eyes at him and said, "If you want to teach me, wouldn't you be more suitable to do it yourself?"
