Return to the Red Age

Chapter 761 Technical Services (Second Update)

Of course Liu Hai couldn't say this, although Liu Hai had a good relationship with his teacher, after all, there was still a layer of separation.

After returning to Kyoto, Liu Hai saw the reaction of Western media to the Loongson chip.

However, Liu Hai saw the most the reaction of these professional large companies.

"These large companies seem to not care?" Sun Aiguo didn't know much about chips, but the main leaders of the superiors went to inspect, which proved that this thing was very important.

"Each department of a large company has its own responsibilities. As long as there is no problem inside them, all external reactions are relatively slow." Of course, this situation is much better after the advent of the Internet era.

Before the advent of the Internet era, if you want to communicate with a large company on certain issues, it is a problem of the large company itself, and you may not find a way.

Even in Europe and the United States in 2020, large companies communicate by email. After you send an email, as for how long it will take for others to reply to your email, it is hard to say.

"And the difficulty of this chip itself is not high for these large companies, but they don't think it is necessary to make this chip now." Liu Hai further explained to Sun Aiguo.

"So if we make this chip, what will the future development be like?" However, Sun Aiguo had another question.

"Although it seems that this chip is much weaker than the mainstream 8088 chips at this stage, and it is also far behind in computing power and other aspects, I believe that this chip will develop better and better in the future." ARM chips did have a hard time before the outbreak of mobile devices.

In fact, by 2020, Intel's chips will also be more functional than ARM chips, but most ordinary people cannot use this performance.

It takes some professionals to use Intel's chips. Low-power ARM chips are more suitable for various mobile terminals, and Liu Hai does not want to eat up this market in one go.

To be precise, it is walking on two legs, one leg competing with the bald eagle on the x86 architecture, and the other leg walking on this reduced instruction set chip.

Even if the Loongson chip is developed to the end, it can still be used. Our country has such a large market. As long as our own chips can be used, then these foreign companies will naturally talk to you.

If you don't have a usable chip, you will be slaughtered like pigs and sheep.

"I understand." Sun Aiguo didn't understand it, but since Liu Hai was doing this, he must have his reasons.

"How was your trip back to my hometown in Shandong this time?" Sun Aiguo asked again.

"It's good to go back to my hometown. The teacher is always smiling." Liu Hai certainly couldn't talk about the conflicts at home.

"I will retire in two years. The fighter jet project is not a big problem. I don't know if I can see the aircraft carrier in this lifetime!" Sun Aiguo said.

"Leader, you can put your heart in your stomach." Liu Hai laughed.

Liu Hai said this for a reason. Fat Bear now sees that Niu Niu and Gallic Chicken are going to equip four aircraft carriers, so he also plans to build six aircraft carriers, and they are at least 80,000 tons, and at least two are nuclear-powered.

Liu Hai was of course very happy to hear this news, no matter how many of these aircraft carriers were built in the end and how many were not built.

Maybe he would have a chance to pick up a bargain.

If it is built, it will be even better. By then, Fat Goose will be stronger and can attract the attention of Bald Eagle and other Western countries.

By then, Fat Goose will have two aircraft carriers to support, and it will be even more short of money. Then oil and gas resources will come.

"That's good!" Sun Aiguo was relieved when he heard Liu Hai's confident words.

Sun Aiguo certainly didn't know that after the collapse of the fat bear, according to our current development speed, we couldn't hide even if we wanted to. Since we couldn't hide, we must stand up. At that time, whether we bought or built, we must have our own aircraft carrier.

Liu Hai also took out this fighter jet based on this consideration.

"I heard that your company is going to make mobile phones. Our factory can order some at that time." Sun Aiguo said again.

"Then thank you, director." Liu Hai nodded. There are all kinds of chips in China now, so it is no problem to make mobile phones.

The key is to bypass some patents of others, and also to make your own mobile phone unique.

Liu Hai asked the company to make a very small display screen on the mobile phone. The only function of this display screen is to display the dialing number and time, as well as caller ID.

Don't underestimate this function. In this era of big brothers, this kind of mobile phone will definitely become a product sought after by people who like high technology.

As for how to implement this function, it is up to his subordinates to do it. Of course, this mobile phone still uses analog signals, and there is no need to use digital signals. After all, everyone is making money from analog signal mobile phones.

It would be a waste if you don't make this money. Besides, the investment in digital communications is too big now.

"Leader, I have something I want to ask for your help." Liu Hai told him about the museum giving it to Gou Zi.

"No problem." Sun Aiguo agreed immediately after hearing it.

Liu Hai was relieved. He wanted to do these things himself, but he didn't know who to ask. The museum had not completed some procedures due to time constraints.

Now that it is to be handed over to Gou Zi, of course the relevant procedures must be completed. All these museums are packaged into a private company.

In fact, the progress of Fenghuo Technology Company is much faster than planned.

On the one hand, a lot of manpower was added, and on the other hand, some technical problems were handed over to other related companies or research institutes. On the one hand, other companies or research institutes were given tasks by their superiors, and on the other hand, they were given real task rewards.

How much money is given for breaking through a technical difficulty? Although it is a bit against the rules, Fenghuo Technology Company gives a lot of money.

In addition, Fenghuo Technology Company itself issued a large year-end bonus before the New Year, and the main leaders came to inspect.

The entire institute burst into unprecedented enthusiasm.

Liu Hai returned to Kyoto after the Chinese New Year. Before he felt that he had done anything, Fenghuo Technology Company sent good news.

In mid-March 1983, Liu Hai saw the first mobile phone of Fenghuo Technology Company.

This mobile phone is like the legendary stick phone. There is an antenna on the black plastic, and the antenna can be pulled out. There is a small gray LED display on it.

The overall appearance looks like a smaller mobile phone, but it is thinner, shorter and lighter.

"Will this plastic give people a cheap feeling?" Liu Hai saw this stick phone, which was too different from the mobile phone he imagined. It felt like no one would want it if it was thrown on the street.

"This material is now used by the mainstream." Ni Nan said after hearing this.

"Can the appearance be changed?" Liu Hai has always been dissatisfied with this, and the appearance of his company's products must be better looking.

"It can be changed."

Liu Hai drew a mobile phone, to be precise, a flip phone, of course, the cover is just a receiver.

The overall mobile phone is not like the current Bang Bang Chicken, but a square one, a bit like the Motorola v66.

"This flip cover is mainly to protect the buttons, and there is only a receiver on the screen. In addition, it is best to make a switch here on the flip cover, and then a piece of music will sound when the cover is opened, just two or three seconds." Liu Hai knew that the first batch of big brothers who bought pagers had to display it in front of their waists.

"Also, make this display screen bigger, even if it has a single function, it will be uncomfortable to look at if it is too small."

Liu Hai did this to arouse people's comparison psychology. If you buy a mobile phone, others don't know what to do, of course, you can open the flip cover to sound a unique ringtone.

"You decide the specific size." In the end, Liu Hai did not strictly stipulate the size. In fact, many people now hold a mobile phone in their hands, which makes them feel very impressive. If the mobile phone is too small, it will not show their identity.

"Also, the battery should not be too big. It can make calls for an hour. Anyway, the battery can be replaced."

"Anyway, you decide the size ratio."

"Boss, it can be changed in a week." Ni Nan looked at it and said.

"Then thank you for your hard work." Liu Hai said with a smile.

"We have passed the communication test of this mobile phone. The call quality is similar to that of the same type, but our battery life is longer. But in terms of base station construction?" Ni Nan said again.

"You can ask the higher authorities for this." Liu Hai also felt a headache when he heard this, because the mobile phone is not only the mobile phone itself, but also the communication base station, and it must be connected to the fixed phone and can make long-distance calls, which cannot be separated from the current telephone bureau.

"This..., let's leave it to you, boss, and I will be responsible for the technology." Ni Nan said when he heard this.

"No problem!" Liu Hai nodded.

So Liu Hai took the initiative to come to the competent department to report the situation.

"We have discussed this with our superior department and are planning to set up two new mobile communication companies. We originally planned to set up one, but you also know that there is no comparison with a single company."

"Does your Fenghuo Technology Company want to invest in these two companies?" Liu Hai just sat down on the chair in the superior department leader's office when he heard the leader say this.

"We will not participate in this. We can provide technology and equipment, and then the mobile phones will be sold by the two companies." Liu Hai decided not to participate in this mobile communication company, because the network company he cooperated with the railway department will also participate in mobile communications in the future.

At that time, if he invested in three companies, it would seem a bit weird.

"Haha, Mr. Liu, you have a sense of propriety. The last time the main leader inspected you, he thought of this problem, but he didn't expect your mobile phone research and development progress to be so fast. These two companies have just been established, but I can take the lead and let you cooperate with the Kyoto Telephone Bureau first to establish a communication base station within the scope of Kyoto, which is also equivalent to a test." The leader of the competent department spoke again.

"We will follow the leader's arrangements." Liu Hai also thought this method was very good.

In fact, the construction of communication base stations and the update of equipment such as switches are still a relatively troublesome matter.

The mobile phone was only tested by Fenghuo Technology Company itself. Fenghuo Technology Company built a small base station with a radiation range of only more than one kilometer.

"This is what we should do. I will set up a special team to promote this matter. Let's implement this matter as soon as possible." The leader of the competent department knew that this was a great thing.

"Then I'll trouble the leader. I will immediately ask the company's people to contact the department."

"Okay."

Liu Hai returned to Fenghuo Company. The superior competent department took the lead, and some personnel from Kyoto Telephone Bureau and Fenghuo Technology Company formed a special team.

The first thing is to survey the existing equipment of the telephone bureau, and then update the equipment. In addition, according to the power of the base station, find the location of the signal base station within Kyoto.

This project is a task assigned by the superior leader, and the department takes the lead, so the people in the Kyoto Telephone Bureau are busy.

In this, Fenghuo Technology Company plays a role of technical support and comes up with a construction plan for the signal base station.

The people in the department coordinate in the middle, which is actually watching the people in the Kyoto Telephone Bureau work. Fenghuo Technology Company comes up with a plan, and the telephone bureau immediately starts to do it.

Liu Hai also tested the mobile phone produced by his company at Fenghuo Technology Company. To be honest, it feels pretty rubbish. There are various problems with analog signals, the signal is not good, and the language is distorted.

Especially compared with the mobile phones in 2020, the current mobile phones can only make voice calls, and the function of sending text messages was not available until the 1990s, so Liu Hai is of course not in a hurry.

However, Liu Hai has asked the company's people to work on the function of sending text messages. Nine-square strokes, typing pinyin typing, these must be worked out.

Liu Hai doesn't need to worry about it because there are competent departments watching over it. It's just that it may be hard for the staff of the telephone bureau.

In fact, it's not just the people of the telephone bureau, the people of Fenghuo Technology Company are also working hard.

They have a base station themselves, so the relevant equipment only needs to be authorized to the relevant production enterprises, and these enterprises can produce the equipment as quickly as possible, such as signal transmitters, signal converters, switches, and then connect to the fixed telephone.

There are also cables that need to be reconnected between base stations, which does not have any technical problems.

Of course, Fenghuo Technology Company charges patent fees, which are charged according to each device.

Even in early spring, everyone works overtime. Some people will never encounter such a level of task in their lifetime. Once such a level of task is completed, everyone will be rewarded.

People who participate in such a level of task will be role models and backbones in the unit in the future.

So it is true that overtime is hard now, but the honor in the future is also true.

So the people of the telephone bureau themselves don't feel hard at all, although it seems that they get up early and work late, and it is hard to work overtime.

A week later, Liu Hai really saw the mobile phone designed according to his own ideas.

"We added a program to the sound of opening the cover. We tested it and found that two seconds is enough."

"The flip cover itself has a pressure switch. When the flip cover is opened and closed, pressure is applied to the pressure switch and the sound is played."

"In addition, as for the boss's comment that it looks cheap, we can make it silver or gold."

Liu Hai looked at the larger flip phone in his hand. There was a transparent plastic on the cover, through which the phone display inside could be seen. However, the display could only display numbers, which meant that the caller ID was also a string of numbers. However, this was normal. Early phones did not have a phone book function. At that time, people had to look up the phone book in their bags to make calls.

"Very good, very good." After Liu Hai opened the flip cover, a ding-ling-ling sound rang out.

"Can this store a piece of chord music?" Liu Hai thought that this sound was a bit too monotonous.

"This will be very expensive and require more storage."

"You can make two versions, one that can only make such a monotonous sound, and one that can make chord music, caller ringtones, and the sound of opening the flip cover." Liu Hai thought it was not a problem, so he suggested.

"No problem!"

"You can hand this phone over to the superior department for identification. After the identification, let the superior department arrange production, and we can collect patent fees. However, we must apply for global patents before production." Liu Hai is not going to produce specific mobile phones, but only provide chips and technical services, because in 2020, Liu Hai knew that someone who played with flexible screens had played himself to death. If he tackled this technology alone, there would be a lot of people supporting him, but he wanted to make mobile phones.

In fact, in 2020, it is like a technical service provider is the most profitable. He doesn't care how fierce the competition in your downstream market is. The more fierce the competition is below you, the more you sell, and the more money he makes as a technical service provider.

Besides, Liu Hai doesn't have so much energy to manage the production of mobile phones and the like.

And as a technical service provider, there is another advantage, that is, it can formulate industry standards. In 2020, many mobile phones were manufactured, but how many of the mobile phone systems, software and hardware were developed by their own mobile phone companies? Many directly bought a complete set of solutions from upstream technical service providers, and then changed the skin and did it themselves.
