I was born again with 100 million

Chapter 51 Flash Disk Testing

Lin Xiao didn't know what time Tan Gaoyuan came back from the grove that night, because this guy didn't go back to the dormitory at all that day.

It seems to be really reconciled.

The next day was Sunday. Although he drank alcohol the night before, he was not drunk after all. Lin Xiao still got up to exercise in the morning as usual.

Most of the girls in science and engineering schools are relatively ordinary. Girls like Xu Jia should be rare, and even fewer will come for morning jogs.

Lin Xiao even wondered if he should go to Chu Xiyun School for a run in the morning, because there are many eye-catching people there.

By the way, go there to practice oral English, foreign studies university, there should be many people who will practice English in the morning.

When I was an editor in the previous life, although I have always been exposed to English, I was also very interested in English movies and English songs.

But there is not much practice in speaking. In this life, if I want to get involved in the Internet, electronic technology, etc., I still have to master this foreign language well.

However, this is a later matter. Today Lin Xiao decided to go to Tang Xingchang's laboratory to see the general progress of the old professor.

When Lin Xiao came to the laboratory, he found that Tang Xingchang had already arrived.

At this time, the old professor was holding a circuit board and some electronic components, and connected these components to the circuit board with soldering.

"Little Lin is here."

Seeing Lin Xiao enter the laboratory, Tang Xingchang greeted him, then lowered his head and continued to work.

Lin Xiao responded, seeing that Tang Xingchang was very focused, he didn't bother him, and just quietly watched the other party operate.

Tang Xingchang moved very slowly. Every time he placed an electronic component, he had to stare at the blueprint for a long time, as if he was making it while verifying whether his previous design was correct.

However, as he soldered the components on the circuit board one by one, a USB flash drive without a case roughly took shape.

The USB interface was the last part that Tang Xingchang soldered on. When Tang Xingchang put down the soldering in his hand, Lin Xiao, who watched silently for a long time, finally couldn't help but speak.

"Old Tang, are you ready?"

"Well, according to this design drawing, it is basically ready, but we need to test whether it can be used."

As Tang Xingchang said, he took this self-made flash drive and began to test it in some instruments. Lin Xiao didn't ask any more questions, because he really couldn't understand it.

It was another long waiting process. When Lin Xiao thought that Tang Xingchang might be testing before lunch, Tang Xingchang suddenly said:
"Little Lin, it's done!"

Hearing this voice, Lin Xiao suddenly felt refreshed. He came to Tang Xingchang's side, took the flash drive without a casing from the other party's hand, and looked at it carefully.

Except that there is no case, the entire flash drive is about the same size as the USB flash drive I used in the previous life, with many components soldered on it.

Among them, Lin Xiao only knows the few big gadgets, USB interface, flash memory chip and main control chip.

Of course, he did not intend to study the structure of the entire flash drive, but to use it, so he immediately looked at Tang Xingchang and asked:

"Old Tang, can we plug it into the computer and try it out?"

"can."

Tang Xingchang replied that Lin Xiao immediately handed the flash drive back to the other party. After all, this thing was developed by Tang Xingchang, and it would be better for the old professor to test it himself.

Lin Xiao had already turned on the computer, and Tang Xingchang took the flash drive and plugged it into the computer's USB port.

"Snapped!"

There was only a slight sound, and the next moment, the screen of the computer that was originally on turned black instantly.

Both Lin Xiao and Tang Xingchang were taken aback by this sudden scene. Tang Xingchang hurriedly unplugged the flash drive that had just been plugged in from the computer.

"Xiao Lin, try turning on the computer again."

"it is good."

Lin Xiao pressed the start button of the computer again...no response.

Well, what should come will always come, Lin Xiao murmured to himself. He remembered that he had reported that several computers were burned out when the USB flash drive was invented, so there was no accident at this time.

"The computer burned out?"

Tang Xingchang frowned, reached out and pressed the computer, but after finding that there was still no response, he put the flash drive in his hand aside, moved the main computer out, and began to dismantle the main computer.

"Old Tang, it's okay if the computer burns out, or I'll buy another one."

Lin Xiao thought it was a pity that Tang Xingchang burned out the computer, so he immediately said aloud.

Tang Xingchang shook his head, "After buying a computer, what if it burns out again? I have to find out where and how it got burned, so we can improve it."

While Tang Xingchang was talking, he disassembled the entire host, looked at it carefully, and then said to Lin Xiao: "Xiao Lin, help me carry this host inside."

Lin Xiao followed suit and lifted the main computer away, while Tang Xingchang came in with the semi-finished flash drive that had just been done, and then started a bunch of tests.

Strictly speaking, checking the problem is more difficult than simple positive design, which can be seen from Tang Xingchang's frown from time to time.

Seeing that the time was approaching noon, Tang Xingchang seemed to have no intention of leaving, so Lin Xiao came to the cafeteria, grabbed a meal and mentioned to the laboratory.

"Old Tang, I packed a lunch for you, you can eat first." Lin Xiao greeted Tang Xingchang to eat.

"Put it there." Tang Xingchang replied without raising his head, and then continued to get busy.

Looking at Tang Xingchang's dedicated appearance, Lin Xiao secretly rejoiced that he found him with the mentality of giving it a try.

With Tang Xingchang's professionalism and rigorous style, Lin Xiao had a premonition that the next time the other party brought out something that must be close to the finished product.

At this time, Deng Guoshun, the original inventor of the USB flash drive, should still be in the embryonic stage of the idea, and then he would return to Pengcheng to establish Netac in 99, and really start research and development.

If he can complete the invention before the end of this year and officially launch it, then he will really be ahead of the curve, and there will be nothing wrong with him.

Thinking that staying here would not be of much help, Lin Xiao left the laboratory.

After 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Xiao went there again. Tang Xingchang had already eaten, but he was still holding the circuit board for various tests.

In the next few days, Lin Xiao occasionally went to the laboratory because of class. Tang Xingchang was almost always there, but he rarely talked to Lin Xiao.

Sometimes the old professor was pondering the blueprints in front of the computer, and sometimes he was researching the hardware there. When Lin Xiao went there a few times later, he saw the other party starting to make new hardware again.

After a few more days like this, when class was over on Thursday afternoon, when Lin Xiao went to the laboratory again, he found that the burned-out computer had been reinstalled and turned on. Tang Xingchang had to fix it.

At this time, Tang Xingchang was walking out from the inside, and when he saw Lin Xiao entering the laboratory, he was a little happy and said to Lin Xiao:

"Lin Xiao is here, I'm about to ask you to come over, let's try again."
