Chapter 1266 Electron Tube

Wang Xuexin's estimation was correct. Even though Wang Xuexin had told Joan the solution, a transport plane on which the sun never sets still landed at Liyuan Airport two days later.

This time, there was no need to keep it secret. Boxes of parts including wires, generators, relays and even electronic tubes were moved to the warehouse prepared by Wang Xuexin.

The generator is because the generator of the Eighth Route Army is modified from a car generator. The voltage it provides is unstable, high and low, and sometimes it will suddenly shut down and cut off the power. Such a generator is good for mechanical computers... "Christopher" With its own storage capacity, even if there is a power outage, it will not have much impact.

But the relay computer is not good. It has high requirements on voltage stability. Otherwise, even if there is a paper tape to store data, there will still be a situation where a relay is damaged and affects the entire machine.

Thirty thousand relays were shipped in one go.

Wang Xuexin estimates that 13000 are needed, which is based on the requirements of the Mark2 computer...it uses 13000 relays. It is said that in the summer of 1947, a moth flew into the Mark2 computer and burned one of the relays, resulting in the machine Failure to work, this is the famous BUG event in history.

Since then, software defects or loopholes are all represented by BUG.

The electronic tube is required by Wang Xuexin, because the electronic tube has been used in the relay computer, but the number is not large.

Compared with relays, Wang Xuexin is more interested in electronic tubes.

Because he knows that the computer using electronic tubes can increase the speed by a thousand times, and then has various advantages such as small size, low failure rate, low power consumption, etc., so why should the target be set on the relay?
The reason why Wang Xuexin is willing to play with these relays now is just to show that the sun never sets.

But that's not all.

Because Wang Xuexin believes that the Eighth Route Army should also cultivate its own talents in this area... After completing their project, Qiong, who never falls behind, will eventually go back and not be used by Huaxia. Wang Xuexin may be a qualified participant, but the problem is he There is still a battle to be directed, and it is impossible to stay in the laboratory for a long time, so it is necessary to have its own team to participate and let them grow up in the process of cooperation with Joan and his party.

In fact, it's not just computers, it's the same in radars, car engines, airplanes, etc.

There is no need for Wang Xuexin to think about talents. Wang Xuexin only needs to send a telegram to Su Xin, and Su Xin will immediately search for talents and send them to Liyuan immediately.

What Wang Xuexin asked Su Xin was to be familiar with electronic tubes and to add two talents in mathematics.

This is a kind of helplessness, because there is no "computer" industry in this period, so computer talents cannot be found at all.

Fortunately, Wang Xuexin knew that the computer's hardware was going to be developed in the direction of electronic tubes, and the end of the software was mathematics, so he sought talents in these two areas.

To Wang Xuexin's surprise, there are still a lot of talents in the field of electronic tubes. Su Xin sent more than a dozen, but there are only two who have researched mathematics. Among them, hardware is sent as a talent for electronic tubes. up.

It was only later that Wang Xuexin learned that electronic tubes were widely used in radios, amplifiers, phonographs, radio stations, and radars during this period, but Wang Xuexin had no research on these things at all, so he had no idea.

Wujin was very happy to see Wang Xuexin. He held Wang Xuexin's hand and said with a smile: "Comrade Wang Xuexin, as soon as I heard that Director Su said that you want someone who can use electronic tubes, I will sign up immediately!"

"Can it work?" Wang Xuexin asked.

"Isn't it?" Hardware replied confidently: "Those of us who fiddle with the hardware store, who hasn't repaired gadgets like radios? I've seen a lot of electronic tubes!"

Wang Xuexin let out an "oh" and was rather disappointed. It seems that Huaxia's talents in electronic tubes are probably limited to the level of hardware!

This is not good, they just know how to use it, but they can't produce it, and they will still be stuck by others in the end.

Wang Xuexin frowned and asked: "Hardware, can we produce electronic tubes? Or is it possible to produce electronic tubes?"

Hardware thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "At least for now, I don't know that we can produce this thing! Shanghai can indeed produce radios, but the key parts such as electronic tubes, capacitors, detectors, etc., are all brought in from outside. The casing and connectors are produced by our local workshop in Shanghai, and once assembled...the radio comes out!"

Hardware is in the factory in Shanghai, so I know this very well.

Seeing that Wang Xuexin was frowning, Wujin thought for a while and said: "Head, if you want to produce electronic tubes yourself, I think you should find someone!"

"Who?" Wang Xuexin asked.

At this time, he has given up hope for this. After all, this is China where the industry has just started. If there is no electronic tube factory in a place like Shanghai, which is full of concessions, then there will be none at all.

"This man's surname is Su, and his name is Su Liguo!" Wu Jin said, "His grandfather used to be a business leader in Shanghai. Everyone in Shanghai knew everyone. Later, when Su Liguo's family fell in the family, he just managed to accomplish something in Yingjiang. ... I don't know the school, I heard that the major is radio! This guy is obsessed with radio, he tinkers with all kinds of things all day long, and when he has no money, he assembles radios and sells them. Later, he opened a radio in Shanghai. I set up a small factory, and I heard that they can produce capacitors and resistors by themselves, so the radios they sell are much cheaper than others, but the electronic tubes are... not so sure!"

Wang Xuexin became interested when he heard this: Yingjiang came back from studying abroad, and he is also a radio major. The most important thing is that he has a strong interest in it and can produce some parts by himself, so he should have something in hand.

"Where is he now?" Wang Xuexin asked, "Is it possible to find him?"

"After the fall of Shanghai, the devils took over his small factory!" Wu Jin said, "It is said that they wanted to arrest him to help the devils produce radios. He escaped overnight, and I don't know where he is! As for whether I can find it..."

Talking about hardware, he smiled "hehe": "Our Eighth Route Army has no other skills, so we are good at finding someone!"

When Wang Xuexin heard it, he thought it was the same.

The intelligence personnel of the Eighth Route Army can be said to be all over the world, and all kinds of news can't escape their eyes. They didn't know this person because they didn't look for it before. Nine out of ten times it can be found.

Thinking of this, Wang Xuexin nodded and said: "We must find this Su Liguo, we urgently need such talents!"
