1977: It all started with a wrong love

Chapter 111 Sensation
Don't ask where Lu Yifan went.

The question is, I can’t tell you the specific title logo. If I tell you the content of this chapter, it will be banned, modified or deleted...

When the great debate in the outside world first broke out, important officials from above immediately came to inquire about the matter.

I don’t know how the two principals, Zhou and Liu, made their reports.

Anyway, in the evening of that day, Lu Yifan was quickly picked up by a black Red Flag sedan and driven all the way to a defense fortress in the suburbs of Beijing...

It was a mysterious base whose inner mountain was almost hollowed out...

At the base, Lu Yifan witnessed with his own eyes a purely domestically-made supercomputer with a computing power of over one million.

This is one of the purely domestically-made mainframe computers under the National Aerospace High-Tech System, which ranks among the best in the world in terms of computing power and supports the country's entire satellite launch, aerospace exploration, and other platform systems.

Discussing the current level of computer manufacturing.

Putting aside the civilian field, our own mainframes are really not inferior at all.

Such a top-secret base happens to be located in Lu Yifan's hometown, deep in the mountains of Longyan Commune, Fu County, where there is also such a base system.

The base located in Longyan Commune, Fu County.

In his previous life, Lu Yifan had visited the base while traveling in Qinxi.

At that time, the base had been renamed the "Time Museum".

That’s right, that place was once the country’s time service center, the origin of the earth. The beeping time on the loudspeaker, BJ time, what time is it now…

There are only five such bases in the country.

There are only about ten or so such fully domestically produced mainframe computer equipment in the country.

Such a big machine would take up thousands of square meters of space and require a military camp's worth of staff to operate it. It is indeed impossible to produce too many of them.

He was suddenly sent to such a heavily guarded place by his superiors, and he certainly wasn't here to visit or learn.

Rather, it means that the "double-pinyin and double-form" Chinese character input scheme he designed has been fully recognized by scientific leaders.

In order to be able to provide corresponding quick confirmation.

Taking advantage of the fact that the supercomputer with a computing power of one million in the fortress base happened to be unused, he could borrow it temporarily to use it as a program execution simulator. He could demonstrate that the "double-pinyin and double-shape" Chinese character input program could be successfully executed on the supercomputer.

All disputes will naturally resolve themselves.

Therefore, for the past half month, Lu Yifan has become a so-called invisible man in the outside world.

He never expected that a Chinese character input method solution would be elevated to such a scary level by the scientific leaders.

Fortunately, in the mysterious base outside Beijing, Lu Yifan was not fighting alone.

A military supercomputing operation and maintenance team with high quality and strength became his best partner.

With the collaboration of the team, the 'double-pinyin and double-form' Chinese character input method solution he designed was quickly developed and compiled, and was successfully run on the base's large supercomputer.

this day.

The weather was sunny and the sky was cloudless.

Many big names from Beijing's scientific community came to the base today. They all heard that the Chinese character computer input method solution had been a great success, and came to watch the solution demonstration in person.

President Zhou, President Liu, and Director of the Institute of Computing Technology Lin Jiantao were also invited.

"Demonstration of Chinese character supercomputer input solution begins!"

With an order.

At the scene, three well-trained workers, each with a 101-key standard keyboard, began typing away at the keys, rapidly inputting the contents of a copy of the day's newspaper into the monitoring screen in front of them.

Not far behind them.

A group of people held their breath, not daring to blink at all, staring at the surveillance screen in front of them.

Someone was counting the time with a stopwatch.

Some people silently count the number of Chinese characters that have been entered on the monitoring screen at any time.

"Da da da da, da da, da da da da..." Lu Yifan naturally blended into the crowd at this moment, turning into a spectator, admiring the arrival of this important moment.

soon.

Ten minutes passed.

The monitoring screens in front of the three Chinese character inputters were filled with several screens of Chinese characters.

The demonstration progresses to this point.

It has been a great success.

"The highest input speed is 168 words per minute..."

"The accuracy of article input is 100%..."

"Success!!!"

"Double Pinyin and Double Shape, the Chinese character input method solution, succeeded!!!~~~"

Hua Hua Hua...

There was thunderous applause at the scene, and the scientific leaders cried with joy and excitement.

"Comrade Yifan, congratulations! Your Chinese character input method design has been a great success. It truly fills a gap in the country's development of high-tech computers!"

The scientific leader excitedly grabbed Lu Yifan's hand and shook it vigorously.

"No, no, it's all the collective wisdom of the comrades at the base. I just provided a design framework. Without the collective support of the comrades at the base, I would not be able to produce such excellent programming results..."

Lu Yifan's words were truly not false modesty.

The current version of the 'Shuangpin Shuangxing' input method source program is compiled and debugged. This input program completely covers the 6000 commonly used Chinese characters in the entire "Kangxi Dictionary". It is completely written in the lowest-level computer assembly language.

The program size is only 1.3k bytes.

Such a compact and comprehensive perfect program compilation design.

In the eyes of a 21st century programmer, it was like compiling a heavenly book.

Anyway, if he were to operate it, he would definitely not be able to come up with such a sophisticated and perfect program.

Moreover, it is entirely possible to design the program in this way and embed it into the computer BIOS kernel, so that after the computer is turned on, it will truly have an application environment based on Chinese language recognition.

In this regard, compared with the original timeline, in the 1980s and 1990s, when many types of Chinese cards were popular in the domestic computer application market, this was a step ahead and eliminated the use of these Chinese card products.

This is to allow Chinese applications to take root and settle down directly on the basis of computer hardware.

In this way, at least in the field of computer high-tech products, the so-called innate advantages of native English speakers are no longer valid.

Now it has collapsed without any attack.

The next day, the front-page headline of the "Quanmin Daily" publicly reported the major news that the efficiency problem of Chinese character computer input method had been perfectly solved.

The name of Lu Yifan, the designer of the "double-pinyin and double-shaped" Chinese character input method and a super cross-school student from Yanqing Secondary School, has once again appeared in front of the people of the whole country.

As soon as the news got out.

There were exclamations, sighs and praises throughout the country.

In the capital, the once-raging controversy over the superiority of English as a native language suddenly died down. The attacking and abusive voices quickly turned around and turned into cheers and chases.

Fence-sitters change with the wind, and the intellectual community has always been full of flexible and opportunistic elements.

Now that everyone has started to praise Mr. Lu for his greatness.

All of a sudden, many smart and intelligent people spontaneously found Liu Chuanzi, who was already trembling at home, and began to attack him, spitting blood and cursing Liu Chuanzi as a weak boned patient who worships foreign things and fawns on foreigners. They told him to pack up and get out of the scientific research community as soon as possible, never get involved in the computer industry again, and stop tarnishing the reputation of the Institute of Computing Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences...

Even though Liu Chuanzi never admitted that he wanted to make a bet with Lu Yifan.

But he also knew that the end of the world had come and his career would be completely destroyed by that man named Lu.

Heaven and earth conscience!
Classmate Lu, I, Liu Chuanzi, really didn’t provoke you!
Why do you want to kill me, Liu Chuanzi...
