Chapter 3742
However, Shi Diwen could not blame these former companions for having children. Since settled in Sanya more than 30 years ago, due to the shortage of human resources, Haihan official has always adhered to the attitude of encouraging childbirth to increase the population growth rate in the jurisdiction.
Haihan's rapid expansion has brought about a large number of jobs, so even though the population is growing rapidly, the employment gap still exists, and the unemployment rate is even so low that it has no statistical value at all.
If you are an ordinary family, no matter how many children have given birth, you don’t have to worry about not finding a way out in the future. As long as you are good at it and are willing to obey the arrangements, the government will come forward to guarantee the situation. No matter how bad it is, you can go to overseas colonies to make a living.
But the time travelers came from different backgrounds after all. As one of the founding elders, of course they would hope to find a better job for their children. What Shi Diwen can do now is just to provide them with an opportunity to prove their value.
After sending out these old friends who are running for their children, Shi Diwen has the last task in Victory Fort, which is to inspect the operation of the big database.
Thirty-two years and two months have passed since the day of travel. Although there are dedicated people who have been maintaining it continuously, the number of servers that can still run in the large database is still gradually decreasing. The lifespan of several servers that can be used has irreversibly entered the countdown state.
Fortunately, the Executive Committee had already predicted such a trend many years ago and took corresponding measures to protect these precious data that spanned the times.
These measures are actually nothing special. They are just to copy as much data as possible on paper while the server is still running and save it as physical data.
To this end, the Executive Committee has also set up a secret agency affiliated to the Ministry of Security to be responsible for the transcription and preservation of information.
There are hundreds of people in this organization who are responsible for copying materials and drawing drawings, and they carry out tasks in shifts day and night.
Despite this, it is difficult to transcribe all the vast amount of data. It can only be selected to choose some advanced technologies that are more important and cannot be realized under current conditions. They are classified into categories from shallow to deep.
There is a square building with doors and windows in Victory Fort, which is the location of the big database.
This unique appearance is designed to maintain stable temperature and humidity inside, and all walls and floors are made of waterproof and thermal insulation. Air circulation is accomplished through electric-driven ventilation fans and special pipelines, which can prevent various local mosquitoes, snakes and ants from entering the building to the greatest extent.
Shi Diwen hasn't seen these servers for many years, and the laptop he brought to this time and space himself has died more than ten years ago. After walking into the building, he saw the buzzing server and the monitor flashing text, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of time and space disorder.
Currently, the person who manages this place is Meng He, the IT technology manager who travels through the journey. This professional coder was once a member of the core circle of power in the early days of traveling through the journey. However, his administrative abilities are obviously far inferior to his professional skills, so he finally returned to the computer room and was responsible for the use and maintenance of the large database.
Most of the people working here, except for the Menghe who is responsible for operating the machine and several second-generation wearers, are actually ordinary people who have received professional training. The main task of these ordinary people is to constantly copy various contents appearing on the monitor.
"All the monitors we can still use normally are basically here. If one is broken, one less will be reduced. If one is missing, our work efficiency will be reduced once. The current strategy is to continue to maintain the working state and change people every four hours to ensure efficiency."
Listening to Meng He's introduction, Shi Diwen glanced at the situation here. There were about forty stations in operation, each station had a copyist who was writing quickly and a large stack of document files. The unified display format in front of them is obviously not the property brought by the travelers in the past, but the materials purchased by the travelers' action committee.
The monitors that travelers come with are usually scrapped after more than ten years of use. The reason why these unified procurement monitors are still usable after thirty years is not only because their quality is excellent, but also part of the important reason is that they are properly stored, activated in batches, and a large number of spare parts are prepared for maintenance.
But even so, there is not much time left for the large database to operate. Once all the monitors are scrapped, even if the carefully maintained servers can still run, the Executive Committee will no longer be able to provide the information they need.
Shi Diwen walked to one of the workstations, picked up the file on the table and looked at it. It was a record of various large minerals in South America, each with the types of minerals, estimated reserves, depth of the minerals, mining methods, and detailed latitude and longitude.
Its economic value is difficult to estimate if you extract any item from this file, but for those who copy this information, this is just one of the thousands of messages they want every day.
The work ongoing at a station next to it was obviously more complicated. The copyist focused on using a ruler and compass, copying a complex drawing on the monitor.
Shi Diwen leaned over and took a look, but it was an integrated circuit diagram. This thing may not be made in this century, but this small circuit diagram may save future generations decades of development time.
Shi Diwen asked Meng He softly, "How long do you expect this place to run?"
Meng Heying said, "The situation is good, about two or three years, and maybe some monitors can last for one or two more years. If you are not lucky, maybe one morning I will see a black screen and I will have to be forced to stop work."
Shi Diwen said: "So, when will this place be suspended before you can retire!"
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
Meng He waved his hand and said, "I can't retreat! Even if this place is shut down, the big database will still continue to operate!"
Shi Diwenqi said, "How can you operate without the monitor?"
Meng He said: "Of course, these data can be used when copied, but it is just a bit troublesome to retrieve. If you are interested, I will take you to see the next generation of large database under construction."
Shi Diwen said: "In Victory Fort?"
Menghe shook his head and said, "There are too much information. There is no such big place in Victory Castle. We have prepared another place, which is not too far from here."
Shi Diwen said, "Then we have to go and see it."
