Military Industry of Great Powers: Build the Strongest Flanker.

Chapter 108: 1000 US dollars in foreign exchange, use it as you like

Part-time jobs are common for students at HKUST, and the school itself even opens some positions to recruit students for work-study programs.

The work-study program at 101 School is completely different.

This is not a position that does not require any knowledge, such as managing books in a library or maintaining order in some public places.

From the beginning, Teacher Xiao Zhao squeezed these HKUST students, just like the students he had taught, with high-intensity "homework."

On the first day they came in, they were spoon-fed all kinds of knowledge. After reading one book, there was still the next one.

Liang Jingguo from the School of Information Engineering of the University of Science and Technology experienced the cruelty of School 101 on the first day, but for the sake of 200 yuan, he still chose to accept it.

And Institute 101 also opened up new areas of knowledge for them.

"Hardware description language? Computer language?"

When his mentor Zhou Wenquan asked him, Liang Jingguo shook his head.

"I don't know how to describe it. It can be regarded as a computer language, but its functions require hardware to parse it, rather than directly providing it to the program that the computer runs!"

"Can you explain clearly?"

Zhou Wenquan has long heard about 101 Institute, which is a research institute that cooperates with the University of Science and Technology. The building, staff area and factory of the institute are still under construction. Currently, it temporarily occupies the reading room on the third floor of the library as its office location, and the warehouse of the University of Science and Technology. There are still a lot of instruments and equipment from the 101 Institute, which have just been transported and have not had time to be installed.

As for what 101 does, he doesn't know. There is also a 14th house, but the people in the 14th house have not arrived yet. It is said that people will gradually move here after it is built.

Now that the University of Science and Technology where 101 belongs is recruiting students for work-study programs, he is naturally paying attention. Some of his students are doing work-study programs, which leads to the above conversation.

Liang Jingguo tried to describe it more clearly, and he took out paper and pen.

"Professor Zhou, I have checked a lot of information and have never seen such knowledge. They speak hardware description language and associate it with specific circuit models. They are inputting the circuit into the microcomputer. As long as the function of the hardware module is confirmed, Use hardware description language to describe the function of this module, and you can draw the circuit through this language! Professor Zhou, why don’t we have such a course at HKUST!”

"You seem to be talking about computer-aided design. The association was only established last year and a developer conference was held. There is no mature technology yet!"

"Computer Aided Design?"

Zhou Wenquan nodded and said: "I didn't expect that the 101st Institute has already started exploring. They are ahead of our University of Science and Technology. Jingguo, how far has their research reached now!"

"They are using this technology to design program-controlled switch chips. Their researchers said that they have successfully designed several chips..."

"Chip, they designed a chip... What chip did they successfully design?"

Liang Jingguo shook his head and said: "It's said to be confidential, so I can't say it, but there are some people who are quick to talk. I heard some people say they are from the military industry..."

"Jingguo, take me to see it!"

HKUST currently does not have the strength to develop chips. If 101 Institute is so powerful, there is no reason not to come and learn from it.

……

It was afternoon when Zhou Wenquan saw Zhao Guoqing. The setting sun shined through the window and cast its red afterglow on Zhao Guoqing's face.

"Hello, Professor Zhou, I am Zhao Guoqing, the director of Institute 101. Welcome to come and work in Institute 101!"

too young!

Similar to the students he taught.

Has the school been deceived?

"Hello, Director Zhao!" Zhou Wenquan was very confused and had the urge to crack down on counterfeiting. "Director Zhao, can you show me your work?"

Zhao Guoqing nodded. It is not a secret that 101 Institute studies program-controlled switches. So many students know it, so there is no need to hide it from a university professor.

"Professor Zhou, I'm really sorry. I have something to do and I have to go out for a while. I'll ask Assistant Xu to show you around!"

"……it is good!"

"Xu Ming, take Professor Zhou with you!"

"Okay, Professor Zhou, please..."

…………

Zhao Guoqing really had something wrong. He didn't expect that Liang Zhujin would never end his contact with the Academy of Sciences.

In the guest room of the Yangtze Hotel, Zhao Guoqing met General Master Liang after an absence of half a year.

"General Master Liang, hello!"

"Hello, Director Zhao!"

There was no other pleasantries at the beginning, and Liang Zhujin went straight to the topic.

"Director Zhao, overseas donations have reached 1000 million US dollars. What do you think?"

Zhao Guoqing looked at Liang Zhujin with disgust. Of course he wanted the 1000 million U.S. dollars, but if you set this condition or that condition and made it clear that you would not give it, you would still keep asking for 1000 million U.S. dollars to keep people interested.

"Chief Master Liang, I'm having a good time in the 14th Institute now, and I have no plans to leave the 14th Institute yet!"

Liang Zhujin smiled, and when he saw Zhao Guoqing's face was obviously sullen, he sighed in his heart, Zhao Guoqing had grown too fast, and Institute 503 could no longer offer any leverage.

The house and position he proposed before seemed ridiculous now. Liang Zhujin changed his mind very quickly. Since he couldn't recruit them, he didn't want to become an enemy.

"National Day, don't get me wrong. Except for more than 1000 US dollars, the US$80 million is a targeted donation, and the use of the rest of the money has not been explained. This fund has not been touched at the 503 Institute of Science and Technology. At the 503 Institute team meeting, everyone said I think I have already taken advantage of your honor. If I touch this money again, we will not be able to see anyone in the country in the future!"

"General Master Liang, what do you mean?"

Liang Zhujin said: "On National Day, we have decided to return this money to you. The report has been sent to the General Staff. Director Liu said that you want to buy some foreign research equipment. They are contacting the Administration of Foreign Exchange. These 1000 million US dollars are Can I grant you a foreign exchange quota?"

"U.S.$1000 million in foreign exchange will be granted to 14 of us?"

Liang Zhujin nodded and said: "Whether it is 14 or 101, it depends on what you think. National Day, although this fund was donated by patriotic overseas Chinese, but think about it, the country's current foreign exchange is only more than 1000 billion. With these [-] million U.S. dollars, the support from the General Staff is not small, especially Director Liu Qing’s full support!”

This is an unexpected blessing. 1000 million in foreign exchange that can be freely used is so precious in this era.

"The General Staff approved 1000 million US dollars for us. This decision is so wise!"

"..."

"Director Zhao, I have one more request!"

Zhao Guoqing looked at Liang Zhujin in confusion, don't go too far, even though your posture is very low now.

"Director Zhao, Institute 503 of the Academy of Sciences wants to cooperate with you. Our scientific research experts are also among the best in the country, especially in the field of radio. If the project funds are tight, our Institute 503 can also support it..."

The so-called cooperative research, if you produce results, you can also add a name after it, which is also an honor!
