Technological Hegemony

In the eyes of everyone expecting, Li Moran stood up, looked around, and said with a smile: "The thing is this, in April this year, the software department made a plan to enter the field of industrial software, and now, the time has passed half year."

"We have made some progress. According to Mr. Luo's request, our first project is CFD software, computational fluid dynamics."

"So, this time the hardware department is developing fans, we can try to use our own industrial software."

"It needs to be explained that our CFD software is based on the computer version of the star system. On our own system, we run our own software. The data security issue that everyone was concerned about just now is not a problem. "

Li Moran still had that unhurried tone, and after he finished speaking, he sat back in his seat.

However, the colleagues in the hardware department felt turbulent waves in their hearts at this moment.

Just now Li Moran revealed two important pieces of information. One is that the software center has produced CFD software with independent intellectual property rights.

And another piece of information is even more astonishing, the star system has evolved from a mobile phone operating system to a computer operating system! ?

Is it time for the software center to attack Microsoft after a while?

"Good job!"

"The software department is really good!"

"In this way, our big problem is completely solved!"

"Half a year ago, the software department started the industrial software project. It seems that Mr. Luo has expected this day."

Everyone congratulated the software department one after another, and at the same time, they were impressed by Luo Jia's foresight.

Luo Jia said with a smile, "You don't have to be too happy. Although the CFD software has been written, it still needs to go through actual testing."

"For projects like wind power generation that involve a lot of commercial secrets, we must use our own software. If colleagues in the hardware department find any deficiencies in the industrial software, please point them out immediately and let the software department improve it. Everyone will work together. Only a set of industrial software can be truly implemented."

Although the software army of Star Technology is very high-level, it is the first time to do industrial software after all.

Luo Jia does not guarantee that it will be particularly useful.

I have to mention here that the four new managers of the software center are Tao Tao, Zheng Lin, Bai Xianyong, and Wei Jianing.

The four of them all came to Star Technology from the world's first-class industrial software group, and all of them are senior management.

The company can make achievements in the very difficult field of industrial software in such a short period of time, all thanks to the rich experience and hard work of these four people.

Of course, the software center has expanded from 1,200 people half a year ago to nearly 2,000 people now, and there are many masters invited back from all over the world to sit in the software center. The four of Wei Jianing and the others are just representatives of this group of elites characters only.

Wind power generation is a huge project. When everyone finished discussing these things, it was already past noon.

Luo Jia asked the administration department to pack and deliver the lunch from the cafeteria, and everyone continued to discuss while eating.

Basic materials and fluid dynamics software have already had directions, and Luo Jia began to assign the person in charge of other projects such as electromechanical, telex, surveying and mapping, meteorology, and so on.

It is no exaggeration to say that this time, Star Technology has all the elites.

The scale of 5,000 researchers in the whole company, except for the left-behind staff in these departments, except for optics, shows that all other forces are directly or indirectly serving the wind power project.

 …

Cuxhaven, Germany.

At the same time when Xingchen Technology started the research on Karman vortex effect power generation, the deep sea energy storage experiments of Siemens and Rheinland Group were also in full swing.

Speaking of offshore wind power generation, there are actually reasons for the advanced technology in Europe, the most important of which is the North Sea.

The wind resources in the North Sea are much higher than those in the coastal areas of our country. Of course, you can also understand that the climate is harsh, and the sea breeze is blowing all year round.

In such an environment, living by the sea is tantamount to suffering, but it is perfect for generating electricity.

Therefore, Europeans have been studying how to use the wind resources in the North Sea since a long time ago.

Coupled with the influence of the great power game, Europe does not like to hand over its energy lifeline to Russia. Even though the Soviet Union has disintegrated for decades, the European continent is always on guard against the fighting nations in the north.

Although the North Sea produces the world's highest-quality crude oil, and the Middle East has a good relationship with Europe, apart from crude oil, Russia's real killer weapon is actually natural gas.

The price of natural gas transported to Europe through Ukraine via pipelines is much lower than that of LNG transported from the Middle East. Europe is like a drug-addicted patient who does not like Russia and cannot live without them.

Anyway, based on the above reasons, it has led to the crazy research and development of nuclear energy and wind energy throughout Europe. A series of nuclear energy and wind energy giants led by Areva, Siemens, and Vitas have emerged.

In all fairness, European nuclear energy technology and wind energy technology are both superior to those in my country. Wind turbine manufacturers headed by Sinovel have referred to many Siemens designs, and CGN’s third-generation nuclear power plant also imported Areva technology.

This time, in the face of Star Technology's aggressive offensive in the field of wind power and energy storage, the Germans once again stood up.

Siemens and Rheinland Group officially conducted large-scale testing of deep-sea energy storage technology. At the same time, they also joined forces with Danish giants Maersk and Vitas to prepare for an unprecedented European wind energy consortium.

Not only experts from Germany and Denmark participated in the test, but also many well-known scholars from North America and Europe. They braved the biting wind on the coast of the North Sea, excitedly reading the various data generated after the test was launched.

So far, testing has gone well.

As Luo Jia predicted, deep-sea energy storage is a genius design that gets rid of environmental constraints, directly uses water pressure as a natural energy storage medium, and is also very cheap in terms of construction cost.

If it weren't for the supercapacitor of Star Technology, deep sea energy storage should be the best technology in the world.

Judging from the current situation, supercapacitors and deep-sea energy storage have their own advantages and disadvantages. The advantage of supercapacitors is that they cost only three cents per kilowatt-hour of electricity, while deep-sea energy storage is expensive, but it can be built quickly and does not occupy land space.

As the test progressed, the exciting news continued to come.

Hundreds of experts in the experimental center rejoiced at this. They all believed that they had found the best way to deal with the Huaxia people. With deep-sea energy storage technology, the gap with Xingchen Technology could be shortened.

Moreover, the Germans have learned enough lessons from the experience of World War II.

They finally understood the truth that they are not afraid of opponents like gods, but teammates like pigs.

If it weren't for the ally who has been defeated repeatedly, and if it wasn't for the arrogant Neon Man who attacked Pearl Harbor and led to North America's full participation in the war, it is very likely that most of Europe today is already speaking German.

Anyway, the Germans learned to be smart. The first ally they chose for themselves was the only super country in the world, North America.

Jerry En from Bell Labs and Jones from Ross Labs have been in Germany for more than a week and have witnessed this great experiment with their own eyes.

For new energy in the future, batteries alone are not enough, and energy storage and green power generation are also indispensable.

Assuming that the Germans are willing to transfer their technology, it will be extremely beneficial to North America and all countries that have trade competition with China.

And are the Germans willing to transfer deep-sea energy storage technology?

Yes, but there is a necessary condition, that is, North America's Super 500 plan and Germany's Super Battery plan also share technology.

With this condition in mind, Dr. Jones and Dr. Jerryn flew back to North America from Europe without stopping.

 …

At the end of October, Baoshan Base.

Luo Jia received a call from An Ran in the office, and then he put on a coat, left the office, and went to the Star Research Institute.

I saw An Ran and Bai Xianyong from the software center together, surrounding a big screen, pointing and pointing.

There are many types of industrial software, and the CFD software for fluid mechanics was developed under the leadership of Bai Xianyong. At the moment, the software department and the hardware department are working together to carry out the final debugging of the CFD software.

"Mr. Luo, I don't think there is any problem with the software." An Ran said to Luo Jia a little excitedly, "The CFD software independently developed by the company is really powerful. I personally think that it is better than CFX and FLUENT. Software should be more integrated and comprehensive.”

Bai Xianyong said very modestly, "That's because Mr. Luo asked to make CFD first, so the entire software department has been working hard on fluid mechanics in the past three months, and gathered all our strengths."

Luo Jia said with a smile, "The company has the ability to develop industrial software. The biggest advantage is that it can be customized. From now on, if the hardware department needs any special plug-ins, you only need to say hello to the software department. gone."

Bai Xianyong nodded repeatedly, "Yes, industrial software is always for the industry. I used to work for Siemens, the industrial software department of Siemens, and a very important part of my work was tailor-made for the hardware department."

"Many of the software used by these international giants are unique. If you want to catch up with them in the industry, you must first have your own software system."

Now that An Ran thinks that the company's CFD software is very mature, Luo Jia's next job is to promote the industrial software. After all, so many resources have been invested in industrial software, and eventually it will make money.

At present, there are many institutions applying fluid mechanics in China, but when it comes to the most important application scenario, it should be in the field of aircraft.

Of course, fields such as rockets, missiles, and aerospace also need computational fluid dynamics, but Luo Jia doesn't know much about military and aerospace. They shouldn't be able to use civilian software, right?

After returning to the office, Luo Jia sat on the seat and thought about it. Shangfei was very close to him. The key was that they hadn't had much contact with each other for a long time. He needed to find someone to introduce him.

Luo Jia quickly thought of Professor Ouyang. He is not only a well-known scholar in China, but also seems to be acting as a bridge between Xingchen Technology and the upper class.

When he was in the capital last time, Professor Ouyang mysteriously told Luo Jia that some people were satisfied with his speech, which probably meant the meaning of the high-level people.

Thinking of this, Luo Jia called Professor Ouyang.
