The Red Era, the Opening University Speech

Chapter 399 Iron and Steel Metallurgy Database

The two people who deliberately revealed their flaws were baits they used to test the security forces around Li Mu.

Most people wouldn't be able to see the clues, but there's no reason why Xia Country's Security Committee wouldn't be able to see it.

"Is there a lack of additional security forces, or has he guessed our purpose and deliberately concealed his intention?" the man pondered secretly in his mind.

He did not find anything wrong with Li Mu and General Zhao's behavior just now.

Just out of caution, all situations need to be considered before you can feel at ease.

"Whether it is the former or the latter, it is quite tricky. It seems that we need to make another plan." The man thought as he left quietly.

但他并没有注意到.

When I was lost in thought, I was instantly fixed by several gazes.

It was just that the time was so short that he didn't notice anything unusual.

……

Here, Li Mu drove to Fengtian Iron and Steel Plant.

Because there was no prior notice, the car was stopped at the door.

But the gatekeeper who stopped the car was also worried, because he didn't hear that any leader was coming down to check!

Just about to step forward and ask.

Li Mu opened the car door and got out.

When he saw him, the gatekeeper was stunned for a moment, feeling that he looked somewhat familiar.

"Oh, Consultant Li!" he exclaimed suddenly.

Isn’t this young man the great scientist who recently came to Fengtian for academic exchanges?

Li Mu smiled when he was recognized and said, "It's me. Hello, sir."

"Hello, hello!" The gatekeeper took two steps forward excitedly, wanting to shake hands, but was worried that Li Mu would refuse, so he stood there in a dilemma.

Seeing this, Li Mu took the initiative to shake hands with the other party.

The gatekeeper was so excited that he was a little incoherent. He said:
"Advisor Li, I didn't expect to see you here."

"Thanks to your invention, our whole family can have enough food to eat."

"Now we can even use television and radio..."

He held Li Mu's hand tightly to express his gratitude.

He used to be a gatekeeper at a steel factory, and his salary was not bad, but seven or eight mouths in his family depended on that salary for food, so it was common for him to go hungry.

But since the country had the scientist Li Mu, their lives have been getting better and better.

The “large-scale factory construction” led to the construction of many new factories in Fengtian, and the construction plan has not been completed to date.

His two eldest grandsons were lucky enough to be selected to work there. Although they were only apprentices, they earned 18 yuan per month, which greatly alleviated their family's difficult situation.

Now they not only have enough to eat, they can even use television and radio!
"You're too kind!" Li Mu looked at the happiness in the old man's eyes and couldn't help but smile.

There is no reward more precious than the sincere gratitude of the people.

"Look at my brain, I'm so happy. Consultant Li, you must have something important to tell me. I'll go and inform the factory director right away." The gatekeeper wiped the redness from the corners of his eyes.

After saying that, he hurried into the factory.

……

It didn't take long.

The factory manager, who was about to get off work, came trotting over with the gatekeeper, panting.

When I saw Li Mu.

The factory manager rubbed his eyes in disbelief, fearing that he had seen it wrong.

He heard it from his old leader.

Li Mu came to Fengtian for an academic visit. Leaders from the state and county, as well as deputy leaders of all sizes, all greeted him at the train station.

I'm afraid that only the top few leaders above can enjoy this kind of treatment.

"Advisor Li, I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person! I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person!" The factory director shouted impatiently before he even arrived.

Li Mu stepped forward, shook hands with the other party, and said with a smile: "I came here uninvited, I hope you can forgive me, Director."

Hear this.

The factory manager finally reacted.

Li Mu was accompanied by only two young men, and no state or county leaders accompanied him.

"Consultant Li, I wonder why you are here..." the factory director asked respectfully.

Whether there is a leader or not, he will never be negligent.

Li Mu said: "That's right, I suddenly decided to investigate the basic situation of Fengtian Iron and Steel Plant to provide some reference for future research."

"I see. Please come in. I will ask the most skilled worker in the factory to introduce it to you!" the factory manager said in surprise.

The famous consultant Li Mu came to inspect their Fengtian Steel Plant.

If he tells this to others, his friends will probably be envious to death.

And who knows, after Li Mu's investigation, he might come up with some amazing scientific invention, which he could brag about for the rest of his life.

Li Mu looked at the enthusiastic factory director and did not reject his kindness. He followed him into the steel plant.

……

The history of Fengtian Iron and Steel Plant can be traced back to 33. Its predecessor was Zhongshan Steel Industry.

Initially, there were only 5 Sanyin horizontal rolling mills and 1 1.5-ton small electric furnace, which mainly used the leftover scraps and scrap steel from large steel mills to roll out small round steel and flat steel.

The annual output at that time was only more than 500 tons, most of which was used to make military horse tacks.

Between 45 and 48, the factory equipment was sold and the factory buildings were converted into stables for cavalry.

After many changes and reorganizations, it gradually formed the current steelmaking model with open-hearth steelmaking as the main model, with an annual output of 6 tons.

The output is not large, and the quality of the steel produced is average.

Therefore, Song Yunjie, as the factory director, has been looking for ways to break through and transform since a very early stage.

……

Inside the factory.

Song Yunjie asked an old worker who was on night shift and a female college student who had just graduated and was assigned to the factory to serve as tour guides.

One introduced the history of the factory, and the other explained the various steel-making machines and equipment.

The Fengtian Iron and Steel Plant has a long history, but it has never had its glorious days.

Today's equipment is old and can be said to be on the decline.

Song Yunjie took Li Mu to the base of a steelmaking furnace that was under construction and said:
"A medium-sized top-blown oxygen converter is being built here."

"Once successful, the annual output of our steel plant will be able to increase several times."

"And the quality can be guaranteed, providing the best steel for national construction!"

As he spoke, his eyes were full of longing for the future.

The Fengtian Iron and Steel Plant was not doing well. Its equipment was old and the quality of the steel it produced was very mediocre.

If nothing changes, it will definitely hinder the country's development.

"Then I wish you success in advance, Director Song." Li Mu said with a smile.

To be honest, he was a little bit looking forward to it before coming.

But now it's gone.

The equipment of Fengtian Iron and Steel Plant was not advanced, otherwise it would not have undergone so many reorganizations and renovations.

But looking at the situation, he knew it would be difficult for him to survive if he didn't take drastic measures with the knife.

Although it is not going to go bankrupt, it is a state-owned unit after all.

But losses are certain.

Song Yunjie smiled and said:
"This is all thanks to the top-blown oxygen converter you invented. If it weren't for such a good steelmaking furnace, it would be hard to say whether this project could have started."

Faced with the factory's deteriorating condition and gradual marginalization, it is impossible to say that he had no idea of ​​turning the situation around.

But to be honest, he didn't have this ability before.

If Li Mu had not invented the top-blown oxygen converter, allowing the country to vigorously promote the construction and reform of steel mills, he would have no chance at all.

……

Chatting and strolling.

It took Li Mu about an hour to tour the Fengtian Iron and Steel Plant.

Although the expected purpose was not achieved, it cannot be said that there was no gain.

There are actually many small and medium-sized steel mills like Fengtian Iron and Steel Plant.

They are all currently facing an important issue - disintegration or transformation.

It is an inevitable trend for converter steelmaking to replace open-hearth steelmaking.

Large open-hearth steel mills are still easy to deal with, but small and medium-sized plants have the problem of not keeping up with the times.

Of course, this is not their problem. After all, no one expected that Xia Guo would be able to master the top-blown oxygen converter technology so quickly.

……

Go back to dorms.

Li Mu sat at the desk and continued to memorize the information.

While reciting, he made some simple arrangements on the manuscript paper.

A good memory is not as good as a bad writing.

Although he could do it without relying on paper records, it was still not as safe as writing it down.

No one can predict what the consequences will be if one piece of data is recorded incorrectly.

"Maybe I can design a database myself, using the Fengtian Iron and Steel Plant as a model, to provide a basis for reform for all factories." Li Mu suddenly thought.

It is actually not difficult to create a database.

Even if he couldn't get the relevant information from the chat page, he was confident that he could figure it out himself.

Once successful, when computers become more popular, every steel plant will have a computer connected to the database.

This is quite beneficial to the development of steel mills, no, even the entire industry.

If you have any questions, just search and you will get the solution quickly.

"But I guess it can only be done in a local area network." Li Mu sighed secretly.

Only if the Internet can be developed can the role of the database be truly realized.

The network connects all parts of the country, and the most technologically advanced areas and the least technologically advanced areas can be connected directly, so people can ask for help if they don't understand something.

This will undoubtedly greatly promote the country's development process.

"Forget it, don't be impatient. Just take it one step at a time and do it slowly." Li Mu took a deep breath, calmed down and began to study.

Building a database by yourself is different from copying the information.

There are significant differences in the logical and physical structures of the database.

The overall architecture needs to be redesigned.

Moreover, there are too few people who understand software engineering in the three provinces, so the research plan needs to be made more detailed.

Otherwise, like the previous oracle database, where they lost a framework and asked Wang Shoujue to lead people to study it, only a semiconductor research institute with a wealth of talented people could complete it.

……

The night is getting darker.

The refreshing evening breeze blew through the windowsill and onto Li Mu's desk.

He put down his pen and stretched.

I looked at the watch and it was already 11 o'clock.

It’s still early at this time.

Li Mu had originally planned to memorize the information for a while longer, but his swollen head made him give up the idea.

But fortunately, there is no problem in seeing things.

He opened the WIFI page and continued browsing, looking for information that might be useful to him.

As he was looking at it, the WIFI named "National Supercomputing Chengdu Center Database" suddenly caught his eye.

Although there is no plan to develop the third generation of supercomputers at present.

But Li Mu couldn't help but click in to take a look.

The National Supercomputing Chengdu Center, referred to as the Chengdu Supercomputing Center, has a total construction area of ​​about 6 square meters and an investment of 25 billion yuan.

The computing speed can reach 10 quadrillion times per second, ranking among the top ten in the world.

You should know that the best supercomputer in the world, HECToR-IV, has a computing speed of only 1000 billion times per second.

Just when Li Mu was watching seriously.

Suddenly, a "ding~" message alert sound rang in my mind.

Ask:
"Li, look at the photos I took at the Wuhou Temple."

"Picture jpg."

"Picture jpg."

……

He sent more than a dozen photos in one breath before he stopped.

There are landscape photos of Wuhou Temple and selfies of Ask.

Li Mu took a casual glance and had no intention of recovering immediately.

But at this moment, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Why are there rich ladies in all your photos?" he asked curiously.

Ask: "She insisted that I take her in the photo, and I had no choice. Wait a minute, I remember there was a photo without her."

As he spoke, he sent a headshot.

"Stop, why am I looking at your big face?" Li Mu couldn't help but complain when he saw the silly young man with a silly smile on his face on the chat page.

He continued, "Didn't you say you wanted to distance yourself from her? Why are you hanging out with her again?"

"I told her to play by herself, but she insisted on following me, and there was nothing I could do," Ask said.

Li Mu: "If she asks you to, will you agree?"

"She insisted..." Ask said hesitantly.

Seeing this, Li Mu understood.

This reaction was enough to prove that Ask was not unmoved.

It's just that I'm probably too innocent, and I'm still thinking about...

"Wait, it's been a while since Ask mentioned those days." Li Mu suddenly thought.

And the frequency of young rich ladies appearing is becoming more and more frequent.

This fully proves that Ask has fallen in love with the rich woman.

Now all that’s missing may be an opportunity to break through the window paper.

Thinking of this, Li's old father came up with a plan and said:

"By the way, I know a place that's really fun. Do you want to go?"

"It's really fun, of course I want it." Seeing that Li Mu's attention was diverted, Ask breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly.

……

Day two.

Although it was a holiday, Li Mu was not idle.

After finishing the custom exercises, I started to continue memorizing the materials.

At around 10 o'clock, he went to the archives of the institute to check the research materials on the wind tunnel.

However, these data are definitely relatively backward, and there is no relevant record of the J-8 wind tunnel.

But this does not affect its reference value.

……

I watched until noon and then went to the cafeteria to eat.

Along the way, many people from research institutes greeted him, and Li Mu responded with a smile, and chatted with them from time to time.

Everyone has become familiar with each other these days, and their respect for him remains the same, but they are no longer as polite as they were at the beginning.

Some young researchers even come over to joke around.

Come to the dining hall.

After finishing his meal, Li Mu found a seat.

Not long after he sat down, several professors came over and sat down with him, chatting with him while eating.

Although he did not study aerodynamics much, he had studied systematically with Master Qian Wu, and had later materials to study, so his level was naturally not too bad.

Every time he threw out some theory that only appeared in later times, the professors who chatted with him were amazed.

Just when they were chatting happily.

A figure suddenly walked over from a distance.

Seeing Fu Huasheng, several professors greeted him, but they were still in high spirits.

Seeing this, the former was not in a hurry and waited for them to finish their meal with a smile.

After several professors left with satisfaction, Fu Huasheng said:
"Advisor Li, the time and location for the academic salon event in the field of iron and steel metallurgy in the three provinces has been set. It will be held tomorrow afternoon at the Institute of Engineering. What do you think?"

“Many professors and experts from universities and research institutes will be present.”

"They've already made preparations, you can just go over there. We've invited a few reporters, but don't worry, there are no other unnecessary steps."

After Fu Huasheng finished speaking, he waited for a reply.

Seeing this, Li Mu nodded slightly and said:
"No problem for me. I'll take a day off tomorrow afternoon and go out for a while."

"But will we make it in time?"

"It's only been one day, I'm afraid some people won't be able to make it in time."

The wind tunnel test of the Xuanniao-1 helicopter is now on track and there is no need to keep an eye on it all the time, as Wang Shicun, Xu Shunshou, Wu Daguan and others are present.

Even if he leaves, he won't be too worried.

"There's still time. After you nodded yesterday, the news spread throughout the three provinces in no time. Many experts and professors rushed here by train overnight, and most of them will arrive by tomorrow," said Fu Huasheng.

Li Mu smiled and said, "It seems that Director Fu and Dean Jin have made very thoughtful arrangements. I was the one worrying about nothing."

"How could that be? Whether people can come is a big deal. How can we hold an academic salon without people?" Fu Huasheng laughed.

After saying this, he didn't stay long, but stood up and prepared to leave.

at this time.

Li Mu suddenly stopped him and said, "There is something I need to trouble Director Fu to report to Leader Lin Zhen for me."

"What's the matter?" Fu Huasheng immediately stopped and asked.

The fact that he reported it shows that it is not a private matter.

And it is very likely related to research.

Li Mu said: "It's like this, I plan to build a steel metallurgy database in the three provinces. If Leader Lin Zhen thinks this project is feasible, then it will be implemented in Fengtian in the future."

"Is the iron and steel metallurgical database a research project in software engineering?" Fu Huasheng's eyes widened.

Although he didn't understand, he felt it was impressive.

Coupled with Li Mu's identity as a pioneer in the field of software engineering in China, he subconsciously felt that this research project was definitely of extremely high value.

If they could land in Fengtian, it would undoubtedly be a good thing for their development.

Li Mu said:
"Yes, it is research in software engineering."

"I originally thought about finishing it in Kyoto and then bringing it here, but that would be a lot more troublesome."

"And without the actual situation here, it would be difficult to perfect the database. Let me first tell you what this database is..."

He slowly explained the definition of a database.

After listening to it, Fu Huasheng's eyes lit up.

If we can have a database, it will definitely be a great thing for the industrial development of the three provinces.

He immediately said, "Advisor Li, please wait. I will report to the leader right away."

As soon as he finished speaking, his men stood up and left in a hurry.

……

County government office building.

Lin Zhen's office was filled with noise.

Upon hearing the news that Li Mu was coming to Fengtian for a visit, many top leaders from other nearby counties also rushed over in person to pay him a visit.

This is an extremely rare opportunity.

Apart from anything else, if we establish good relationships, we can assign more students majoring in software engineering later.

The leader of Bincheng was the first to speak: "Lao Lin, don't be so cautious. Just give us a clear answer, can we meet?"

"Advisor Li doesn't belong to you Fengtian alone, so don't think he can only have the best of it!" another Xidu leader followed.

Other county leaders also spoke up.

In this regard, Lin Zhen was full of helplessness and said:
"It's no use for you to tell me. Consultant Li came here this time for a research mission."

"I know it's not easy for you to get here, but do you dare to disturb us?"

"Well, Leader Wu Xue is still in Fengtian. How about I invite him over to give you some advice?"

After he finished speaking.

The leaders of the counties were silent for a moment.

They didn't have the courage to disturb Li Mu.

If we are not careful, criticism documents from Kyoto might fly over.

If not for this, they would have gone to meet him directly, and would not have come back to see Lin Zhen and see how "proud" he was.

"How could we possibly want to influence Consultant Li's research? We just want to invite him over as a guest. Stop talking nonsense and just tell Consultant Li when he's free," said the leader of Black City.

They all knew that Fengtian was planning to hold an academic salon in the field of steel metallurgy among the three provinces.

If they hadn't known that Li Mu might be free recently, they wouldn't have taken the overnight train here.

"Okay, okay. I'll find a chance to talk to you about it." Lin Zhen said helplessly.

Hearing this, the tense expressions on the faces of the people in the room relaxed and they began to chat with smiles.

But just then.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

As soon as Lin Zhen said "Come in", the door was pushed open.

Fu Huasheng, who was beaming with joy, followed his secretary into the room and said, "Boss, this is great news. Consultant Li is planning to build a steel metallurgy database!"

"What!" When the leaders in the room heard the news, they immediately lost their composure and stood up from their seats.

Seeing them, Fu Huasheng was slightly stunned. Why were so many leaders from three provinces here?

Before he could figure out the reason, the leader of Heicheng stepped forward and said, "Director Fu, you said that Consultant Li is planning to build a steel metallurgy database in our three provinces?"

"This is a great thing, we must fully support it!" Bincheng's leader followed up.

The rest also spoke up and expressed their support for Li Mu's research.

This sounds about right.

"But Consultant Li was talking about building a database in Fengtian, not in the three provinces!" Fu Huasheng's heart skipped a beat, realizing that he had said the wrong thing.

When I took a look at Lin Zhen's face, it was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Li Mu was originally in Fengtian, so if he wanted to do any research, he would definitely do it closely with them, and other counties would have no chance to intervene.

But this is like walking into a gun barrel, no, it's more like stirring up a hornet's nest.

With so many county leaders here, they will definitely not turn a blind eye to this and will definitely fight for it.
