Chapter 662 The First Flower on Fertile Soil
For the Citigroup, they have no direct channel to get our computers. At this time, the two or five guys in the Oceanic Treaty Organization came into play.
Compared to other major Oceanic Treaty Organization countries, Gallic chickens, which come in and out again, and come out and come in again, can really be regarded as second-guessing.
However, this also shows that only the Gallic Chicken once thought about true independence.
This kind of action is not a national act, so Citigroup has no choice but to use his own talents and find various relationships and companies to achieve his goals.
As the Delta Aircraft Company that has the most dealings with Easterners and is most involved in the computer industry, it is undoubtedly the most suitable company.
The requirements of the Gauls were sent back to the country, and comrades from the Operations Office and the 11th Machinery Department got the part about manpower and work.
Except for some people who went to Gaul Chicken in person, most of the software staff still worked together in China.
The comrades of the 11th Machinery Department looked at the work list of Gallic Chicken and smiled.
“They put private goods in it again, haha.”
The comrades of the computing institute were also laughing: "We are eager to have more of this kind of private goods."
"Don't mention their establishment requirements. Now we have almost accumulated them into a textbook. Although the content is a bit fragmented, it is really useful."
"This is a good person, spending money to help. Let’s solve the problem. In the past, I would have given them a thumbs up.”
“When will you tell Comrade Gao Zhendong this good news? His suggestion at the time was so correct.”
“Hahaha, yes, yes, make him happy too.”
This opportunity came soon, and Gao Zhendong was invited by comrades from the Institute of Computing to attend the meeting.
A comrade has developed a new general-purpose software and specially invited Gao Zhendong to participate in the review.
Decades later, this matter may be a small matter, but at this time, it is an out-and-out major matter.
This is the first time for Gao Zhendong, and he is very happy about it.
This means that our software staff, after fully digesting the software and hardware environments such as general-purpose computers and C language, began to come up with their own things.
There is the first one, and Gao Zhendong believes there will soon be the second and third... until ordinary new software no longer becomes a thing worth paying attention to.
Sitting in the venue, Chief Engineer Chi of the Computing Institute actually revealed to Gao Zhendong that Delta Aircraft Company included private goods in the software compilation requirements, which made Gao Zhendong happy.
"Mr. Chi, this is called a win-win situation, everyone has a bright future."
Capital always has insomnia, they are always eyeing every opportunity to make small money. It is not their habit not to take advantage of advantages. Gao Zhendong proposed investing a large amount of software and related engineering personnel in the cooperation with Gaul Chicken, and also took this aspect into consideration.
The two laughed loudly and turned to look at the application materials.
The comrade who was doing the report looked at the expressions of the two of them and secretly thought that things would definitely be stable today! The two review experts are in such a good mood, which is definitely beneficial to the smooth passing of the review, especially one of them is the expert team leader.
The leader of this expert team is naturally Gao Zhendong. If he did not serve as the team leader, Chief Engineer Chi himself would not dare to take the role.
This software will actually not be complicated in the future, and the real core of programming software is not even professional software personnel, but people engaged in applied mathematics.
At this time, the young core compiler was making a report confidently.
“...In the process of using the computer to carry out work, due to work needs, when parsing the binary content of the file, I found that the data had a lot of redundancy and duplication, which gave me a thought Idea, can you study an algorithm to describe these redundancies and repetitions in a concise way..."
"...My major is applied mathematics, which can support my idea..."
"...Tests have shown that the file processed by this software has a capacity of approximately 40 times that of the original file. %~60%, which is of great significance for saving storage capacity, reducing network overhead, saving transmission time, improving work efficiency and saving costs..."
Yes, what this comrade did is Lossless compression software!
In other words, the core of his work is the data lossless compression algorithm.
This thing is in later generations. In fact, for ordinary users, the function of saving space is no longer important. Instead, the function of reducing the number of cold data files and reducing the management complexity of cold data files is more common.
At the same time, future compression software will come with encryption functions, which is the simplest and most direct encryption method. For ordinary people, as long as the key is long enough, this encryption method is easier to use than hard disk encryption methods such as bitlocker and so on. and much more reliable. There are too many ordinary users who have been tricked by bitlocker.
By the way, there is another use. When you share data on a network disk and do not want the specific content to be scanned by the network disk administrator, encrypted packaging is basically standard.
But in this era when storage capacity and network bandwidth are both limited, compression is true compression, and what we want is to make files smaller.
The files at this time are still mainly text-like files. No matter what the compression algorithm is, as long as it is not too bad, the compression rate of text files is generally 60% or higher, so comrades who are engaged in compressing files The test results I got were very beautiful. Gao Zhendong himself had really forgotten about this thing. It was too specific, he couldn't think of it, and he couldn't take it into consideration. Now that a comrade has made it, it can be regarded as helping him fill the gap.
Looking at the review materials of this software, Gao Zhendong is very happy. He believes that more gaps in application software will be slowly filled. As long as the environment is adequate, we will not be afraid of anyone!
The review experts who participated in the meeting were full of praise for this software.
For them, it was a computer professional achievement that did not come from Gao Zhendong. The significance of this matter was very important.
If before, it was Gao Zhendong who pushed computer and software technology forward, then now we can finally say that the fertile soil cultivated by Gao Zhendong is beginning to bear fruit.
There is another reason why they are so happy that is difficult to express: they feel a little psychological pressure when reviewing Gao Zhendong’s results.
Therefore, all experts do not hesitate to praise this first warrior who opened the door to the new world.
Even the comrades who work on compression software are a little flattered - so what I made is so powerful? So important?
"...It is indeed very important!..." This is Gao Zhendong's speech.
As the leader of the expert team, he was naturally the last to speak.
He also praised this thing from the inside out without any hesitation.
After the compliment, Gao Zhendong was still full of meaning.
“I still have some suggestions for the comrades who are working on this software. Let me make it clear first that they are not opinions. I have no opinions on the software itself.”
Everyone laughed. Professor Gao is quite humorous.
As for the comrade who worked on this software, he immediately concentrated his attention with 120,000 points, gripped the pen and put it on the notebook.
Professor Gao’s personal advice, this is not a chance for everyone.
"The first one is the direction of application. You can take the initiative to contact the National Defense Working Committee, the Postal and Communications Commission and other units. They have an urgent need for your results."
The National Defense Working Committee affirmed If you want to compress data as much as possible, shorten sending time, and have data backup, this is also very necessary.
As for the Postal and Communications Commission, all the data transmitted by the public at this time is with them. Whether it is transmission or storage and filing, they are always pursuing a smaller size.
“Second, I suggest you communicate with the National Defense Work Committee and integrate the National Secret-1 (GM-1) symmetric encryption algorithm into this software. Compression and encryption are done together. For use The staff is very beneficial.”
The reason why we need to communicate with the National Defense Working Committee is because GM-1 is not open to civilian use now. In fact, this is a bit unfounded. The core of the symmetric encryption algorithm lies in the key length and the key and algorithm that comply with the policy. It doesn't matter if it's public or not.
As a result of the communication with the National Defense Working Committee, it is hard to say whether it can be opened to civilian use, but at least the National Defense Working Committee is definitely interested.
“Third, don’t bundle this algorithm with this software. The software is just a result, and the algorithm is the most important. It is recommended that you sort out the algorithm and make it a separate subject. In this way, other comrades will think It is also more convenient to use this algorithm. ”
When Gao Zhendong himself threw the GM-1 encryption algorithm, it was almost like throwing a piece of cabbage, because to him it was nothing, and it did not improve his personal treatment, but for other comrades In other words, similar results have different meanings.
Gao Zhendong’s suggestion, firstly, highlights the importance of algorithms, and secondly, it is also of great benefit to the comrades participating in this project.
The topics doubled, and the top six became the top three!
Everyone understands what's going on here.
The comrades who are engaged in compression software keep records while expressing gratitude. In this way, everyone who participates in this project will have enough achievements.
As for splitting it, will it not be approved? Haha...
Similarly, when some people say it, it is really just a suggestion, but when some people say it, it can basically be equivalent to a resolution.
Gao Zhendong himself has never been exposed to rain in his life, but this does not prevent him from holding an umbrella for others when it is convenient.
The consensus that comrades in the computer field later formed began to be established at this time.
——Professor Gao may be merciless in scolding, but he will definitely go out of his way to help.
As for getting scolded, it's probably not because you're too good, but because he's too strong.
At this point, what seemed to Gao Zhendong to be an inconsequential suggestion was almost complete. His next words made the comrades engaged in compression software ecstatic.
“One last suggestion, comrades, after this project is completed, are you interested in collaborating with me on a small project?”
