Start from 1980

Chapter 683

"What good stuff?" Su Chen was a little curious.

Especially seeing Feng Ronghua's mysterious look, he looks like the kind of person who sells small pornographic movies on the street.

"This is it." Feng Ronghua took out something from the box he brought.

This is a sheet of material covered with various electronic components.

Su Chen asked curiously: "What is this?"

To be honest, he really didn't understand.

Feng Ronghua had a smile on his face: "Didn't the chairman ask us to study switches before? This is the switch motherboard we newly researched, a small program-controlled switch motherboard."

"Oh? This is the result of research?" Su Chen asked, "How is it different from the ones on the market?"

Feng Ronghua thought about it carefully: "Compared to the ones on the market, our switchboard is still very effective, and it can be used for [-] or [-] telephone calls."

"Twenty or thirty?" Su Chen asked suspiciously, "Is this the result of your long-term research?"

Feng Ronghua explained in detail: "This is our own research and development, not Bell S1240 program-controlled machine or Fujitsu's F150 program-controlled switchboard, which marks that we are no longer limited by people. Although this progress is a bit slow, according to my previous visits Research in the Mainland can basically meet the needs of the Mainland.”

"Well, let's put it into production, and at the same time continue to increase research and development efforts." Su Chen asked, "What's the name of this switch?"

"JF-01." Feng Ronghua said, "Because this is the first switch in our Jianfeng R&D Center."

Su Chen thought for a while, and the name seemed to be good, so he nodded: "Okay, this name is fine, if it can work normally, it can be put into production directly, besides, I called you here today, because I have something to ask ask you."

He handed the Motorola BB machine on the table to Feng Ronghua, "I want to Sinicize this thing, can it be done?"

"Sinicization?" Feng Ronghua was stunned for a moment, "The chairman means that he hopes it can support Chinese?"

"Yes." Su Chen said.

Because in his eyes, this thing is really an ocean that can be conquered.

At this time, the phone has just begun to open to the market, and few families are willing to "try early".

And the BB machine that went into Shanghai was brought by a Hong Kong businessman named Huang Jinfu.

After all, the initial installation fee of the phone is not a small amount. At that time, the monthly income of ordinary working-class people was generally "36 yuan long live".

In addition, you have to pay a monthly rent of 7 yuan, and 7 yuan is exactly a month’s milk copper coin. If you put a phone in the room as a decoration, it’s better to drink a bottle of milk every day for nutrition. .

Shrewd Shanghainese are practical.

Started to install the phone, people "sparse hairy dysentery", very few, I installed the phone, but my relatives and friends didn't install it, so I called "Red Guy" on the phone?
So Shanghainese were not very enthusiastic about installing a phone at first. Later, the initial installation fee rose to hundreds or thousands of yuan, and many people began to think about installing a phone.Buying up and not buying down is a common psychological set of people.

Until the end of the 80s and the beginning of the 90s, with the deepening of reform and opening up, the awareness of the commodity economy was strong, the banknotes in the pockets gradually increased, and more and more people installed phones. nervous.

Even if the initial installation fee rises, reaching a maximum of more than 4000, the enthusiasm of Shanghai people to install telephones is even more "stuck".

The telephone has become the most "popular" commodity in short supply.

The two young people had a blind date, and they had a good talk, and they had a good impression of each other.

The man said, Allah will contact you more in the future.

The woman said, okay, next time Lennon will call me in the room.

The man said, oh, I haven't installed my phone yet, so please call me.

Since then there has been no more.

The problem lies in the phone, and the man's phone is not installed, it seems "what a trick".

The shortage of telephones led to the development of BB machines.

But the original BB phone room, popularly known as "Kaotai", was located in a three-square-meter abandoned bathroom on the 16th floor of Qichongtian, South Jingdong Road.

The current BB machine users never dreamed that Miss Kaotai's soft and elegant voice came from the stinky broken toilet.

Moreover, the BB machine can only be regarded as an audio pager, which is relatively primitive and cannot display numbers, let alone display text.

But in the case where telephones are far from popular, BB machines are definitely useful, mainly because it is much more convenient to find people.

But this kind of audio-type BB machine costs 400 yuan, and 400 yuan can buy a 9-inch black and white TV set.

People in Shanghai have not yet bought a TV set, how can they be willing to hang the "television set" in the "waist eye" all day long, and listen to a few B and B sounds?

In 1984, the first year of opening BB machines, there were only 48 BB machine users in Shanghai.

In fact, many of these poor 48 users are on trial or borrowed, and there may be more than a dozen real users.

When the digital machine and the Chinese machine appear, those users will be a crop of leeks.

Waving the banknotes and waiting for Mr. Su to harvest.

Feng Ronghua looked puzzled: "Boss, it's not that I'm complaining, but that we can't change this thing casually, just like this Motorola, to describe it simply.

Unless we have our own paging station and have a large number of users, it is impossible for Motorola to make a few for us that support Chinese, and we have no way to change the things in it casually. "

Well, Teacher Su admitted that he took it for granted.

After thinking for a while, he said, "I see, I don't really understand these things, you should continue to work on the switchboard."

"Boss, the ecological circle you told us about..." Feng Ronghua hesitated for a while before speaking: "Although we understand what kind of principle it is, it is impossible to realize it with the current technology."

"Just talking about game consoles, for example, we produce consoles, but if the unification of the game industry is not completed, there will still be a situation where a hundred flowers bloom, unless we have our own standards and force others to produce according to our requirements."

"I know." Su Chen nodded, "So I told you at the time that I didn't ask you to come up with that ecological circle at once, but I hope you can understand what this ecological circle is like, and wait until this kind of technology appears in the future. , we can take the lead.”

Feng Ronghua breathed a sigh of relief: "Understood, if the boss has nothing to do, I'll go back and continue my research."

"it is good."

After sending Feng Ronghua away, Mr. Su summed up these two things.

One is that it is taken for granted, and the other is that the current technology is not enough to support it.

So now we still have to conform to the development of the times, and there is no way to create that kind of time-breaking product.

It is absolutely impossible to invent it out of thin air.

He rubbed his temples. At present, he wants to make money. Instead of spending manpower and material resources on researching those things, it is better to wait until someone else finds them out before buying them.

"Jingle Bell……"

The phone on the desk rang suddenly...
