Bright Sword Military System

Wang Xuexin did not give the drawings directly, because he thought it would make Turing suspicious.

Wang Xuexin asked three questions.

"Mr. Turing!" Wang Xuexin asked: "Can resistors be made of silicon?"

Turing replied without thinking: "Of course, the conductivity of silicon is between that of a conductor and a semiconductor. There is no problem!"

"Can silicon be used to make capacitors?" Wang Xuexin asked again.

"Yes!" Turing replied affirmatively, and then he had some doubts on his face: "Why are you asking this?"

Wang Xuexin did not answer, and he immediately asked another question: "Since resistors, capacitors, diodes, and triodes can all be made of silicon, and a complete circuit only needs these, why not combine them all together?" Is the material finished?"

Turing was taken aback: "Complete it on one piece of material? You mean, engrave all the devices on one piece of material?"

Wang Xuexin nodded.

Turing immediately understood the meaning of this idea, and he exclaimed: "God, Comrade Commander! This is really a genius idea. To engrave all the components on one piece of material is to treat one piece of material as several components." The device is used, this, this... If this can be successful, the cost can be reduced to a fraction!"

Wang Xuexin just smiled and didn't speak.

In fact, the cost saved by this is more than several times!
In this era, only one transistor can be bought for $10, and in modern times, 10 million transistors integrated on a chip can be bought for the same $2000.

If these 2000 million transistors were sold for $10, they would be worth $2 million, in dollars.

But of course Wang Xuexin would not tell Turing these things. This is the limitation of the times. It is difficult for Turing to imagine that there will be such a level of development in the future, just as Kilby, the inventor of the integrated circuit, could not imagine that his invention would cause serious damage. Such a huge change.

After receiving Wang Xuexin's suggestion, Turing immediately plunged into his laboratory... He was anxious to turn what Wang Xuexin said into reality, so he had no time to talk about Wang Xuexin.

Wang Xuexin doesn't mind either. Most scientists are like this. All they think about is their theories and data, and they don't have much room for communication.

Then Wang Xuexin stopped by the arsenal opposite.

Sometimes Wang Xuexin can't tell the difference between the arsenal and the research institute.

According to Wang Xuexin's original idea, the research institute was dedicated to conducting research and cultivating research talents, and the arsenal was responsible for producing weapons and equipment.

But now, it has become a situation where there is me in you and you in me.

That is to say, the research institute is full of weapons and equipment, and researchers can be seen everywhere in the arsenal.

When Wang Xuexin thinks about it, it is not surprising that the situation will appear, because it is a wartime, and most of the research institutes are developing weapons and equipment that basically have no civilian direction... Even if there are civilian interests, they will not be considered for the time being, such as laser ranging Instruments have great civil value.But at this time, there is not enough military use, so why would it be used for civilian use.

So the research institute was naturally integrated with the arsenal.

For example, when Wang Xuexin finds Su Xin in the factory, she is working with Su Liguo and Chen Jiefeng in front of the CNC machine tool while looking at the drawings.

Seeing Wang Xuexin coming up, Su Xin greeted him and asked, "Are you here?"

Wang Xuexin said "um", glanced at the tired Su Xin, and replied, "Director Su, you have worked hard!"

Su Xin's eyes turned red, and she nodded lightly, her eyes full of resentment, but she quickly raised her head and smiled at Wang Xuexin, and replied: "It's not hard!"

Although it was just an eye contact and the conversation was normal, Wang Xuexin could understand Su Xin's mood.

Su Xin blamed Wang Xuexin for not coming to see her for so long, if she could open up and say it now, she would definitely stare angrily:

"Student Wang, you haven't stepped into the arsenal for more than half a month, right?"

"Is the arsenal raised by your stepmother or is it far away from you? Is that why you don't like it?"

"How do you say that this arsenal has also delivered so much advanced equipment to the country and troops, is it so difficult to pay attention?"

……

Su Xin would never say "you can't come and see me", she would make a lot of excuses.

That's why she feels wronged, but at the same time she can understand Wang Xuexin...

"This battle has just ended!"

"Aren't they busy?"

"This is research and development of equipment and command, and we have to deal with Yingjiang Maoxiong's gang!"

"I know all this, how can I blame him!"

……

However, this made Su Xin feel wronged even more, because she didn't even have a reason to be angry, and she had to convince herself.

However, Wang Xuexin only sighed, and smiled at Su Xin with a little bitterness, and Su Xin felt that everything disappeared.

"Captain!"

"Captain!"

……

Several people from Su Liguo also surrounded him.

Wang Xuexin looked at the CNC machine tool in operation and asked, "How is the situation now?"

Su Liguo replied: "There are no other problems. The laser proximity fuze has been tested successfully, and its accuracy is higher than that of the radio proximity fuze. The problem is that it needs a CNC machine tool to ensure the accuracy!"

Wang Xuexin knew this, and he asked, "How many transistors does a CNC machine tool need!"

This question will be answered by Su Xin, who is in charge of the project. She said: "In theory, more than 2000 are needed!"

(Note: The first CNC machine tool was successfully developed in 1952, and more than 2000 electron tubes were used in total)
Wang Xuexin was taken aback by this number.

A computer of Turing only needs 800, but a CNC machine tool needs more than 2000.

But thinking about it, it’s not surprising that Turing’s computer can only meet basic computing needs, which means that Turing is only used for experiments, and there is no hope that it can do anything.

But Su Xin's CNC machine tool can actually do things, including not only the calculation unit but also the control unit feedback unit and so on.

Su Xin added: "We have replaced everything that can be replaced with electronic tubes, but at least seven or eight hundred transistors are needed..."

Wang Xuexin understands what Su Xin said. Although replacing transistors with electron tubes reduces the cost, there must be a problem of insufficient safety and reliability. As long as any electron tube is burned or broken during work, it is enough for Su Xin and the technicians to keep busy. It's been a while.

Su Liguo stepped forward again and said, "Head, we found that laser guidance also has similar problems. To ensure the accuracy, we must use CNC machine tools to produce it. Therefore, we are currently short of transistors. It should be said that there is a shortage, but we are now Also give Eagle Sauce 2000 transistors, can this be slowed down?"
