Blooming America

Chapter 195 Billion Orders

The kind of screen that Catherine was thinking about was a light-diode display.

This kind of display will also be used in the future where Catherine is, but most of the time, it is used on the street.

For example, many squares or railway stations will have such big screens.

Only on small screens, it is rarely used.

Of course, it's not without it, oLed can also be considered in this regard.

Catherine's idea was to shrink the Led lamp, and then shrink it to a small panel, and it was done.

Because it is cold light, compared with the current cRT monitor, it can save a large part of the electricity, which is very important for the army.

Today's diodes are all moving towards high brightness, but Catherine hopes to find a diode with not so strong brightness, and then integrate three diodes into one pixel.

The pixels can be made of frosted material, so that the color mixing can become more realistic.

"It seems to be possible."

After some discussion, the technician gave a report to Catherine.

Technically, this is feasible, but for chip control, it is very troublesome.

There are three diodes in each pixel, and each diode needs to be controlled for brightness.

This is very simple for the future, but in the present, it is a bit troublesome.

Because this is almost completely different from the cRT monitor, the design idea has to be revisited.

Catherine was also unambiguous, and immediately handed this idea to Beep Boy’s research team and let them be responsible for the development.

Anyway, now that I have a wealth of funds, I can free up some funds.

This plan is very difficult. Catherine has never done it herself. Although she has some knowledge about the control circuit, in her opinion, this does not make the progress of the project progress too much.

However, Catherine still set some rules for this screen.

For example, Catherine uses a widescreen.

In fact, the so-called widescreen is a gimmick that manufacturers came up with in order to save materials and costs.

Take the 17-inch LCD screen for example.

The 17-inch general screen has a resolution of 24 and a dot pitch of o.264 mm.

The corresponding 17-inch widescreen has a resolution of x768 and a pixel pitch of 0.2895 mm.

The wide screen is less technically difficult than the normal screen, and it saves materials.

This time, Catherine is also going to be a profiteer.

Anyway, it was the Pentagon who was pitted.

Although the Pentagon can be said to be Catherine's food and clothing parents, Catherine is unambiguous when it comes to cheating.

Of course, the widescreen is not useless. In terms of games and videos, you can indeed get a good visual experience.

Then, Catherine put her gaze on the handheld again.

Now that "Emma Cube" can be made, why not do some other games?

Catherine immediately thought of "Snake" and "Breakfast". These games are all classics in the classics. There is no reason why they should not be added.

After all, your own pseudo screen is just a screen of LED lights.

Of course, considering the power consumption, Catherine's screen cannot be made too large, so there are some restrictions on the game.

First, the game must be playable if it is monochrome. Then, the game requires less screen size in order to extend the battery life as much as possible.

Although it is the Led screen, Catherine also used her mind.

For example, "Breaking Bricks".

The bullets in the game can make a dynamic effect.

Set the path first, and then set the three brightness levels to let the bullet draw a tail, and you can feel "moving".

In terms of brightness setting, because of the complexity of the control circuit, Catherine uses a series-parallel circuit to control the light and dark, which is also a third-order in total.

It's just that, the original design of the buttons needs to be modified. Catherine simply changed the handheld into the design of the cross key and the a and B keys, and then added the pause button and switch, and it was done.

In addition, there is a three-stage sliding switch next to it to switch games.

This is a hard handover method, which is somewhat different from soft handover. After all, Catherine wants to save costs as much as possible.

The matter of the handheld and the Led screen came to an end for a while, and Catherine immediately prepared to withdraw all of her funds, and then prepared to hand it over to Soros.

But at this moment, the Quality Supervision and Management Office suddenly came up.

So Catherine had to receive this Mr. Walker in the office.

No matter how she maliciously vilified them in her heart, on the surface, Catherine still had to behave a little bit.

About this Mr. Walker Smith, Catherine doesn't know much, but the other party is the SS of his own "subordinate unit", Catherine also needs to be as cautious as possible when treating him.

"Mr. Walker."

When the opponent came in, Catherine, Sanders, Olsen and Ralph Roberts were all waiting here.

Ralph Roberts is the netbsp of American Telecom; it can be said that the person in charge of all the affairs of the Pentagon is here.

"I came here this time because of an order from the Pentagon. They can't wait."

Mr. Walker is straight to the point, he also seems to be very anxious.

In fact, since the other party did not make a call, but came directly to aRk's headquarters, Catherine knew that things seemed a little unusual.

"The Pentagon has drawn up an intercity fiber plan."

Walker divided the plan.

Catherine opened the plan but was taken aback.

One billion yuan in orders?

Catherine’s company doesn’t have that much market value

The other party actually placed a plan to come over with a one-billion-yuan order in one go?

The fact that the pie fell in the sky smashed Catherine into a daze.

Not only Catherine, but Ralph and Olsen over there exclaimed.

"Billion dollars?"

Catherine asked tentatively, and she was sure that the other party did not write an extra zero.

"That's right, what we want to lay is the intercity line connecting the provinces of the United States. If the budget is not enough, we can continue to add."

Can you continue to add?

Catherine did not expect such a good thing.

He also took out a planning map, marked with a red line, is the planned optical fiber network line: "This optical cable line from San Francisco to Washington is the most important and must be constructed first."

Just like the railway that ran through the east and west back then?

Optical fiber networks are much better than conventional cables in the military.

The confidentiality is good, the data transmission is not afraid of loss, the degree is stable, and the interference is not afraid.

This is really great.

Catherine had long been mentally prepared for the Pentagon’s order, but did not expect that the other party would need to build a fiber optic backbone network covering the entire United States from the beginning.

Catherine vaguely felt that things were a little unusual.

"Finally, the east-west network must be completed within one year. This is our minimum requirement. We need to complete the entire network within two years. We must get everything done before the Siberian route in the Soviet Union is completed."

The Siberian route of the Soviet Union?

Catherine raised her eyebrows, which seemed to have something unusual in it.

"What is the Siberian route?" Sanders asked.

"Our spies have already received a plan from the Soviet side. The Soviet Union is preparing to build a trans-Siberian cable line that connects Vladivostok and Moscow. Obviously, the Soviet side is ready to work with us. We have competed, and we must not lose in this respect."

The other side looked solemn.

But Catherine had a weird look.

So the Soviet Union actually launched the Internet plan so soon?

Isn't this... too weird?

"The other party uses...cable?"

Ralph was a little strange.

"Yes, the other party does not intend to open the line for civilian use. Their network is codenamed the'Great Soviet Union Network.' Our intelligence personnel have already learned that the other party wants to link this network to those secret nuclear bomb wells. As long as they press the button, all the nuclear bombs may be shot out in an instant, and then dumped on American soil..."

"So, we must also fight back"

Walker got more and more excited as he talked, but Catherine had a strange feeling.

History... actually became like this.

Will the future Star Wars explode?

When Walker left, the whole office remained silent.

Billion dollars.

It's almost equivalent to 5 billion US dollars in the future, 30 billion RMB...

To be honest, Catherine was stunned by the billion dollars.

However, she soon woke up.

"Complete in one year... Is this time too short?"

Ralph frowned. He is the president of American Telecom, and he is naturally knowledgeable about the company.

"It's not too late."

Catherine said.

"Invite a few more engineering teams. It doesn't matter if the profit is less."

Even if there is no profit at all, it doesn't matter. After the completion of this network, Catherine's plan can be regarded as a huge leap. Following this project, her university network will soon become an intercity network.

Once the intercity optical cable is completed, it means that Catherine's triple play plan, UU reading www.uukanshu.com can be further promoted, and perhaps in the late 1970s, I will be able to realize my own vision.

"Maybe we can also use traditional cables? This can save a lot of money."

Ralph said again.

"No, the optical fiber network is a must. What we are going to do, our network will still be useful in the future, and we must look forward."

Catherine opened the planned map.

She suddenly realized that some routes did not seem to extend to cities, but into desert areas or jungle areas.

Is it a nuclear bomb pit over there?

"In short, we first complete the line of things, and we can directly use the university network connected, so the construction period can be completely shortened..."

Catherine began to act.

For this order, it has more of its own future.
