Chapter 299 Won the Award
But this time, Chang Haonan was obviously a little worried.
After hearing his words, Wei Yongming almost immediately thought about what to do next:
“If we can make a breakthrough in numerical calculation methods within one to two years, I will There are ways to convince the project team to stay in this direction.”
“Oh?”
Chang Haonan became interested when he heard this:
"Do you have other parts of this project that have nothing to do with the casting process?"
Being able to make such a statement, it is obvious that he still has some skills in hand. There are enough results to cope with the mid-term review.
And it can be done without Chang Haonan’s software.
Of course this is also Party B’s usual routine——
The progress cannot be shaken out all at once, it must be kept in a steady stream, and a part of it should be held in the hand just in case.
Just like writing, you cannot send out all the manuscripts at once. You need to keep some in your hand in case you get stuck or have something urgent. Otherwise, like some authors, you will have to take out your mobile phone between meetings. Code words to prevent interruption.
"Well...it can't be regarded as unrelated. We are planning to build an embedded operating system that can be fully operated and maintained independently for the equipment used in these two projects. When we return, we can adjust the priorities and put this If we put things in front of us, we can probably buy at least a year."
Wei Yongming made a shocking statement. If he can really accomplish this, the impact will be the same as what Chang Haonan just said. New software is at the same level:
“I have inspected many CNC machine tools used by domestic manufacturers in the past two years, and found that many foreign industrial control software locks our permissions at the system level, even if we don’t consider it. After-sales problems are also difficult to solve. Contracts for purchasing equipment are full of overbearing clauses. Many problems that can be solved by a technician must be paid a lot of money to fly their engineers from abroad to deal with them, which costs thousands each time. With an expenditure of 10,000 US dollars, I don’t think it’s going to work like this.”
"In the past two years, due to the release of the Chinese version of Windows 95, we have lost a battle in the desktop operating system. Although the embedded operating system is not eye-catching, it actually has a greater impact on production and life. We must not treat it as such anymore. This thing was handed over to others."
As he spoke, Wei Yongming's tone was filled with sadness.
“An independent embedded operating system... based on Linux?”
Chang Haonan can only understand the code at best. He cannot understand anything that is too profound, but he never understands it. Looking at the subsequent historical development, Linux is definitely a good thing. By the 2020s, almost all embedded systems have been unified into two routes: win and Linux.
Speaking of the fields he is most familiar with, Wei Yongming suddenly became energetic again:
"Not entirely. The current Linux as an embedded system has many flaws. The most insurmountable thing is that some industrial control equipment does not have a memory management unit installed, and Linux cannot run on these devices. In addition, some have MIPS or ARM architecture processing installed. The adaptability of computer equipment to Linux is not good, so our plan is to rely on the upcoming 2.0 version of Linux as the kernel source file to design a new system specifically for the micro-control field. "
When he When he said this, Chang Haonan suddenly remembered why he was so familiar with the other person's name.
Wei Yongming, the developer of MiniGUI, China's first embedded operating system that supports graphical user interface.
Many industrial control equipment, medical instruments and ToB terminals use this system.
In his previous life, despite the lack of external support, he still completed the initial development of MiniGUI in 1998. Now relying on the platform of Seiko Project, it is obvious that he has great potential.
"I'm not an expert in operating systems."
Chang Haonan naturally can't say what he wants to say, so he has to be a great dancer. On the other hand, he also hopes to keep Wei Yongming at Seiko Within the framework of the plan, rather than going out to fight alone:
“But if your new system can gain user approval in the two directions of micro-EDM and investment casting, then I am very willing. Integrate it into the framework of the Seiko Plan, so that all terminal equipment involved in the plan can choose to use your new system to avoid the discriminatory policies of foreign manufacturers and possible sanctions.”
For an operating system, the importance of the software ecosystem is at least no less important than the system itself.
For example, on the desktop system, before Chang Haonan was reborn, the computers in their organization had been replaced by the domestic KylinOS from Windows. However, at the earliest time, due to a large number of software that had not been adapted to Linux, Therefore, it is necessary to bring an additional personal Windows computer to work properly.
Chang Haonan has no influence on desktop matters now, but in the late 1990s, the domestic industrial control software industry was still in its infancy. If the Seiko Plan can guide top users to choose, or at least be compatible with domestic systems, it will be a good idea for the future. development will be a big boost.
Even the future hardware industry can do this! "If this is really the case, then I would like to thank you very much, Mr. Chang."
Chang Haonan's promise is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for Wei Yongming.
In fact, since he started paying attention to free software and the Linux operating system a few years ago, he has always had the idea of designing a new system based on it. However, due to insufficient conditions, progress was very slow until this year. After participating in this project at the beginning of the year, I gained a high enough platform to do this.
In less than three months, he completed more content than the previous two years combined.
This is just the support provided by two projects.
If the entire Seiko Plan...
Wei Yongming even dared not think about the situation at that time.
……
The conversation with Wei Yongming once again strengthened Chang Haonan’s sense of urgency to promote multi-physics simulation research.
The requirements for production and manufacturing capabilities of the August 3rd Project he participated in before were not much higher than those of the JH-7 already in service and the old J-8 in the past. In other words, the main shortcomings of the wooden barrel The key lies in the design, so it can be transformed quickly and quickly within a few months.
As the third-generation fighter jets, Project 10 and Project 11 are completely different. Their comprehensive leading performance relies not only on aerodynamic design and avionics advancements, but also puts forward far-reaching requirements for aircraft production. higher than past requirements.
Even if the long-term shortcomings of aviation power are not taken into account, these two models in previous generations still relied on a considerable number of aviation materials and key components imported from abroad for a long time, so it was difficult to roll out production until the 2010s.
Now, with the help of Chang Haonan, their finalization time must be much earlier than the original timeline. If mass production is still impossible due to manufacturing problems, then the significance of this advance will be greatly reduced. .
"I still need to encourage Professor Liu..."
On the way back to the office, Chang Haonan thought for a while and found that compiling the textbook was the fastest way to gain a lot of theoretical experience.
So we still have to take advantage of Liu Hongbo.
This made him speed up his pace.
However, before he could find Liu Hongbo, he was stopped by Du Yishan and two men in black suits at the entrance of the corridor.
"Hello, Comrade Chang Haonan."
One of the people stepped forward and took the initiative to shake hands with Chang Haonan.
If Du Yishan hadn't been right next to him and he was using honorifics when speaking, Chang Haonan would have thought that he had done something outrageous and would be punished...
However, the development direction of things is completely opposite to what he thought...
"We are here to send you the award certificate and the invitation letter to the award ceremony. You need to sign to confirm receipt."
"Award certificate?"
"What award?"
Chang Haonan looked at Du Yishan with a mysterious smile in the distance and asked in confusion——
Why? I don’t even know that I won the award?
