Military Industry of Great Powers: Build the Strongest Flanker

During the Spring Festival of 1985, Zhao Guoqing still did not return to his hometown.

After the first day of the Lunar New Year, most people take the initiative to start going to work.

Zhao Guoqing visited each workshop and found that all of them were in good spirits. There were still more than 20 students from the University of Science and Technology who had not gone home and were working part-time here.

However, what makes Zhao Guoqing uncomfortable is that he is now in charge of the food, drink, and diarrhea in School 101. Just for a meal problem, he has to find someone to go around and ask the HKUST cafeteria to work overtime to solve it.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Du Chuming brought a group of people to 101 House to offer condolences, bringing a lot of rice, meat, oil and noodles.

Teacher Xiao Zhao started to pick up Du Chuming's wool again. Zhao Guoqing asked roundaboutly about the situation of Du Chuming's secretary Zhou Li.

Just when Du Chuming thought that Secretary Zhou had offended Zhao Guoqing for something.

Teacher Xiao Zhao saw this and said bluntly: "Director Du, give me Zhou Li!"

"Then you have to ask him. If he doesn't want to, there's nothing I can do!"

Zhao Guoqing: "Director Du, just tell Secretary Zhou that as long as he is willing to come, his salary will be doubled. He has not yet received the welfare housing. The housing problem 101 has helped him solve it!"

Du Chuming shook his head and said: "...No one can resist this condition!"

Zhao Guoqing took out a piece of paper, handed it to Du Chuming and said: "101 Institute and the following companies still lack 13 management positions. Director Du, you have to help me with this!"

Du Chuming took the note and nodded. Director Zhao was really interesting and what he said was good.

The most valuable thing in this era must be jobs. Thirteen management positions are in state-owned enterprises. They have levels. They are left to him. It is said to be a help, but in fact it is a big favor.

"National Day, don't worry!"

…………

Management positions have been put in place one after another, and 101 Institute, Xineng Processing Factory, and Datacom Electronics Factory are gradually getting on the right track.

Zhao Guoqing can focus most of his attention on research and development.

On April 16, 1986, all designs were finalized.

The next step is to implement the design drawings into physical objects. A total of seven factories are conducting trial production, and Zhou Li is doing the entire coordination work.

As for chip foundry, Xu Ming brought the drawings to Tsinghua University.

Zhao Guoqing, on the other hand, focused on connecting with the air finger technicians.

The conference room of the Wuhu Training Center was full of more than 20 senior executives and technical staff of Kongzhi. Zhao Guoqing was also sitting in the audience, and next to him was Mu Hu.

Jia Pengfei introduced three program-controlled computer technologies developed by 101 Institute on the stage.

"Compared with the civilian equipment we produce, the solution provided to the military by 101 pays special attention to the issue of confidentiality of call information. It designs data encryption modules at the transmitter and receiver, and uses the world's advanced DES data encryption technology. , it is basically impossible to be cracked under the current conditions..."

This technology was designed with the leader of Kongzhi in mind. Mr. Zhao is thoughtful. Although he doesn’t know what DES data encryption is, he can feel Mr. Zhao’s professionalism when he can think of data encryption and preventing eavesdropping.

The Air Force contacted Hucheng Bell Company, and when they raised concerns about preventing eavesdropping, they didn't mention anything, they just wanted to increase money...

The Air Force's plan was approved at one time, and the first batch of construction was the backbone network from the southern base to the air command center in Beijing, as well as the branch line and terminal telephone network from the air command to the training ground in Inner Mongolia in the north.

This contract is also of a verification nature. Whether the domestic one will work, the Air Force will also need to make corresponding evaluations. Now it will take out part of the telephone network for transformation, and it will be rolled out on a large scale after the evaluation is completed. This is also a safe approach, even so. , the total contract price is as high as 50 million yuan.

The 30% advance payment, which is 15 million, was directly transferred to the account of 101 Institute.

With this money, Institute 101 will no longer have any fetters.

On May 22, 1986, the first prototype machine was assembled. The accountant calculated that the cost was about 60 yuan per unit, which is equivalent to about 15 U.S. dollars in U.S. dollars, which is far lower than the international price of 50 U.S. dollars. It can be seen that the technology monopoly of these multinational companies has brought about Huge profits.

Xu Ming said regretfully: "If all these capacitors and inductors were replaced with domestically produced components, the cost could be doubled!"

Zhao Guoqing was also helpless and said: "You think I don't want to use domestically produced equipment. Although these equipments do not have high requirements on components, as long as they are turned on, they have to be turned on for several years."

Domestic capacitors cost only a few yuan per 100 pieces, while Japanese tantalum capacitors cost three yuan each. The price difference is huge.

Zhao Guoqing told Zhou Li: "The next plan of Institute 101 is to establish a component division to specialize in studying these capacitors and inductors, and to study the commercialization of these small components. This matter is on the agenda!"

"Already noted it, Director Zhao!"

The secretary trained by Du Chuming has outstanding abilities in all aspects, and is also good at dealing with trivial matters both internally and externally. The key is that he is familiar with both the provincial and municipal governments, and is very handy in coordination matters.

On June 9, 1986, after half a month of testing, the prototype successfully completed various tests, including various extreme tests, and passed internal acceptance.

Success!

It took nearly ten months from the beginning of development to successful acceptance, which was four months longer than the design and production cycle of phased array radar.

On the same day, on the same page of the Lucheng Evening News, 101 Institute announced: Lucheng 101 Institute had successfully designed and manufactured the country's first program-controlled carrier telephone exchange.

Another first, the honor belongs to 101, which was just born, and 503, the Academy of Sciences, also got a little glory. After all, they also paid 30,000 yuan to win a participating unit.

Congratulatory messages from the Science and Technology Commission, the General Staff, and Air Control were sent to Institute 101 that night, as well as congratulatory messages and phone calls from the Ministry of Education, Tsinghua University Microelectronics, Chengdu Aircraft Headquarters, AVIC Headquarters, Institute 503, Institute 607, Factory 217, and Factory 312. Continuously.

Meng Fanxing's call went directly to Zhao Guoqing's office.

"Congratulations, Director Zhao, no matter where you go, you always make a big splash!"

"Institute 101 would also like to thank the comrades of the Science and Technology Commission for their help. If the Science and Technology Commission had not helped us coordinate the unplanned use of foreign exchange and imported a batch of components, our progress would not have been so fast!"

"Haha, Director Zhao, this is what we should do!"

Although these little things are inconspicuous, sometimes they can be really deadly!

Director Liu Qing's phone call was somewhat meaningful. After the routine congratulations, Director Liu Qing said: "On National Day, the exhibition of light-emitting semiconductors at the Japan World Expo was very sensational. Our General Staff also held a meeting about this matter, and everyone agreed that this matter It’s up to you to do it yourself, the General Staff will no longer provide guidance..."

Is the General Staff letting go? Who is this "you"? Who will do it?
