Great Power Heavy Industry: Rise

Chapter 122 Project Advancement Progress
After the East China Sea project was officially launched, the staff of Zhong Cheng's team could no longer just be bored on the ninth floor of "Tianwaitian".

They all have to go to the relevant project implementation sites of Red Star Company, Beizhong Group, Hongguang Optoelectronics, and Beifei Company, but each has a different focus.

But the main time is still in the Fuxi No. [-] computer room on the ninth floor underground of "Tianwaitian", using the powerful computing power of Fuxi No. [-] to assist in research and development.

With the addition of optical chips and the improvement of the operating system, the functions of Fuxi No. [-] are skyrocketing.

One month later, the number of optical core processors integrated in Fuxi No. 100 reached 5, and the calculation speed increased by nearly [-] times.

But the upper limit has not been reached yet, and everyone’s predetermined goal is to increase it by another 200 times, that is, to reach a computing speed of more than 1000 billion billion operations per second.

In this way, it only takes 10 minutes to simulate a test process of soil materials, which used to take years to calculate.

At the same time, the optical storage technology adopted by Fuxi No. [-] can store almost unlimited amount of data compared to current human technology, which is of great help to the construction of large-scale computing models.

9527 was not idle during this period of time.

When Zhao Wei and Gui Bin used the Fuxi No. [-] design, it secretly gave them a lot of hints in the form of simulation calculation results, which accelerated the optimization process of the photonic computer structure and provided a lot of help for the improvement of the operating system. .

As for Zhong Cheng’s requirements for team members and even R&D personnel to strengthen their bodies, 9527 said that the current function of Fuxi No. 1 is not enough, and it can be carried out on a large scale only after it reaches at least [-] trillion operations per second.

Since 9527 was "removed" from Zhong Cheng's brain, Zhong Cheng himself lost the ability to use the system to strengthen his body.

As for running 1 trillion times per second, Zhong Cheng estimates that it is already the limit of photonic computer technology, and the requirement of 9527 is really not low.

We can only strive to achieve this goal as soon as possible. I don’t know if it will work in 10 years?
……

The time will soon come to August 12th.

It was cold and windy in winter, but Zhong Cheng couldn't feel it at all.

He is in the chemical workshop of the power battery factory, and Cheng Zhidong, Zheng Yilun, Chen Qiang and others are confirming the first group of Kuafu II power batteries made of soil materials just produced.

The energy density of this new type of power battery cell has reached an astonishing 9800 W/kg, and the power density has also reached 7800 Wh/kg.

The energy density is nearly 10 times that of the power battery used in daily electric cars, and it is also nearly 5 times that of the power battery used in Jingwei-[-], and the power density has also increased to several times.

Moreover, due to the light weight and small size of pure graphene materials, and the electronic control system uses Fuxi optical computer, Shihuang operating system and related optical chip circuits, the weight and volume of the Kuafu II power battery are also greatly reduced.

The performance improvement is comprehensive. The original power battery with a group of 100 kilograms is the size of two microwave ovens, capable of storing 2 kilowatt-hours of electricity and output power of 100 kilowatts.

Now it has become a group of 60 kilograms, the volume is only the size of a microwave oven, but it can provide 1000 kilowatt-hours of electricity and an output power of 800 kilowatts.

However, the increase in cost is also obvious, from about 5 yuan per set to 80 yuan per set, and the cost of the power battery on Jingwei No. 20 is about [-] yuan.

The Kuafu II power battery definitely cannot be used in family cars, and it is not necessary.

There's a limit to the top speed of a family car, and a year's worth of battery life on a single charge isn't practical.

However, it can be considered to be used on Houtu super engineering vehicles, or even manned fighter jets and large passenger planes, but this is something to be considered in the future.

All the goals now are for the mass production of Jingwei unmanned fighter jets.

Zhong Cheng and others conducted the performance test of the Kuafu II power battery on the spot, and agreed that it can be finalized after online testing with other components of the Jingwei drone.

Work out the mass production process, strive to enter small batch production after the Spring Festival, and the power battery has come to the forefront of the various projects of the East China Sea Project.

Zheng Yilun and Chen Qiang are very proud, claiming that the employees of the power battery factory are a team that can fight tough battles.

At present, Lin Wei, Yang Xi and Beizhong Group's Zhurong electric push improvement and mass production project are ranked second in progress.

Zhong Cheng went to see it yesterday. Before the Spring Festival, the first brand-new Zhu Rong electric pusher will come out, and it will enter the mass production stage in April.

As for the mass production of the Jingwei fighter fuselage they are responsible for, there is no problem.

The progress of several other projects is also smooth, and they can be completed before the end of May next year.

Of course, the improvement work of Fuxi Optical Computer and Shihuang Operating System that Zhao Wei and Gui Bin are in charge of will continue.

Their current goal is to design a stand-alone machine that can be used on the Jingwei unmanned combat aircraft, as long as the performance is more than 1000 times that of ordinary computers, there will be no problem.

In the afternoon, Zhong Cheng was planning to go to Hongguang Optoelectronics to see the progress of the laser cannon that Jiang Yan and Li Mei were in charge of.

Mr. Shao, who was brought by Director Qian with Hongguang Optoelectronics, came to the door. Zhao Wei and Gui Bin were also brought by Director Qian from the R&D Institute.

Zhong Cheng took everyone to the conference room of the power battery factory and greeted the staff to serve tea. He was also considered half the owner of the place.

Director Qian and Mr. Shao discussed it in a low voice, and Mr. Shao spoke first: "I came to see you today for a great event!"

"Huh?!" Zhong Cheng was taken aback, all the progress of the Donghai Project was under his control, what happy event would he not know about?

"Hehe, it's like this. Three days later, Hongguang Optoelectronics will hold the most important seminar on the development of the electronics industry in China. The national electronics industry and network information industry authorities will take the lead. We Hongguang Optoelectronics will be the host."

"Oh!" Zhong Cheng, Zhao Wei, and Gui Bin all said plainly that they knew it, and the voiceover is none of our business!

Seeing that it didn't arouse everyone's excitement, Mr. Shao didn't care, and continued:

"This is the first time this kind of meeting has been held in a small western town in the inland region for so many years, because Hongguang Optoelectronics will release related news about Fuxi optical computer, optical chip and Shihuang operating system that day."

"Oh?" The three of them were finally aroused, but they all looked at Director Qian suspiciously.

Director Qian quickly explained: "The release of these technologies has been discussed by high-level national officials, and they intend to promote them to the civilian field. However, the transfer of patented technologies must be paid, and the company will have a special person responsible for the specific sharing method."

"Okay! Only when the Shihuang operating system is introduced to the civilian market will it be truly useful!"

Zhao Wei was the first to applaud, and Zhong Cheng also agreed with this point. Only when a large number of programmers develop application software based on Fuxi Optical Computer and Shihuang Operating System, can the two be truly practical.

Mr. Shao felt relieved when he saw this. He was really afraid that these technicians would not be able to change their minds.

"I came here today, first to discuss this with you, and second, to invite you to participate in this meeting, and I hope you will speak at the meeting to introduce Fuxi Optical Computer and Shihuang Operating System."

"I will definitely participate, but it's fine to speak, Zhong Cheng, go up and speak!" Zhao Wei has always avoided such publicity.

Zhong Cheng also quickly shied away, he didn't want to take this kind of limelight, and under the current situation, the country and the company didn't allow it either.

He thought to himself, Boss Shao is just being polite, he must be clear about the situation here.

Sure enough, Mr. Shao didn't say anything more, saying that it was up to him to speak at the meeting reluctantly.

Next, everyone discussed the content of the speech at the meeting, and this matter was settled "casually".

The three of Zhong Cheng couldn't imagine what kind of results they would bring in the meeting three days later.
