Chapter 107, Fishing Law Enforcement (Second Update)
In the capital city in October, the vanguard of the Siberian Cold Wind has arrived successfully.

Outside the computer room of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the north wind blows.

In the room, there was a surge of enthusiasm, and Chen Guohua's speech was deafening.

As a young man, he is a student who dares to speak out and raise questions.

There is no reason to be timid just because there are professors, experts, academicians and other big names on site.

In addition to mentioning transistors, Chen Guohua spoke freely and began to imagine a new idea: integrated circuit computers.

This is a hypothesis he put forward based on the characteristics of the transistor itself, such as its small size, low production cost, and much longer life than the electron tube.

And it also shows that this is the development direction of computers in the future.

It’s just an academic discussion anyway. Let’s not talk about how to implement it. The technical and theoretical basis must be straightened out first.

Hua Luogeng is a mathematician, but his brain works faster, much faster than the 103 computer.

Therefore, based on the assumptions mentioned by Chen Guohua, Hua Luogeng began to perform mathematical model calculations in his mind.

Of course, it can only be a rough idea, not to mention there is no specific direction.

More importantly, today's mainland has an unspeakable pain in transistors.

As early as two years ago, in [-], at the Institute of Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, experts such as Chen Qihong developed the first transistor in the mainland and achieved mass production of transistors.

However, due to limitations in equipment raw materials and other aspects.

Domestic transistors are directly replaced by imported products.

And the integrated circuit transistor computer mentioned by Chen Guohua, the transistor is only a small problem, there are also diodes, memory cores and resistive devices, as well as core board design and manufacturing, transistor testers, magnetic core testers and electrocautery devices. Printers, chassis design and manufacturing, etc.

None of these require money and talent to build.

Not to mention Chen Guohua's imaginative integrated circuit design, this is even more difficult.

Because this means an entire industrial chain, not just a computer.

Of course, the idea of ​​integrated circuits proposed by Chen Guohua still greatly inspired Min Naida, Xia Peisu and others.

Even Hua Luogeng, who had come back to his senses, couldn't help laughing and said:
"Lao Xia, you are so discerning that you took Xiao Chen under your wing as early as possible."

"No, I don't know if what this kid said is correct or not, it's just nonsense."

Xia Peisu also said a few words of humility. Fortunately, it was almost lunch, so he ended his work this morning.

Although there was no progress all morning, there is no doubt that the integrated circuit idea proposed by Chen Guohua had a great impact on everyone.

The theory needs to be gradually improved, and it needs to be tested by practice.

The people present are all cutting-edge talents and experts in the fields of mathematics and computers, and they naturally have good vision.

It must be admitted that Chen Guohua, a young man, has indeed avant-garde and novel ideas.

Two days later, Chen Gonglu traveled from the south to the north and finally returned to the capital.

Cuihua Hutong, second into the living room of the north room of the courtyard, the family is reunited.

Chen Lihua also came. She just came to see her younger brothers and sisters, and would return to Jinling in a few days.

"Dad, which department are you transferred to this time?"

At the dinner table, Chen Guohua asked curiously.

No matter what department his father was in, it actually didn't have much influence on him.

He is on the path of scientific research, and his father is in the military system. They are two completely unrelated paths.

Before, he had thought about establishing a good relationship with Luo Feng and his classmates, so that he could have more helpers in the future. After all, they were four brothers and sisters who depended on each other at that time.

But now, Chen Gonglu is 57 years old and can live for at least ten to 20 years, or even decades.

In this way, it is his backer.

"It hasn't been decided yet, but it should be a civilian job in a special department."

Lao Chen is quite optimistic and very satisfied with this kind of work.

It's just a civilian job, it's not like I haven't done it before.

It's a peaceful time now, there's no war, so civil service is pretty good.

What's more, he is 57 years old and has no one in his family to sacrifice anymore.

"That's it, that's good." Chen Guohua nodded and continued:
"Dad, you have been fighting all your life, brother and the others. Now that we are back in the capital, we can use our remaining energy."

"Good for what?"

Lao Chen was a little dissatisfied, "I heard from your mother that you don't want to get married yet, right?"

This, getting married at 17?

Chen Guohua suddenly became unhappy.

Seriously, who in the right mind gets married at 17?

He is just a child, so let him get married?
"Dad, Mom, I have told you many times that Jasmine and I are still young and our bodies are not fully developed yet."

"I can understand your desire to have a grandson as soon as possible, but you also have to consider the actual situation."

"Besides, the country has enacted laws that require men to get married when they are 20 years old and women to get married."

"Mom and Dad, we are living in a new era and a new society, and one of you is a national cadre and the other is a university professor. Can you not be so conservative in your thinking?"

Ha ha!

The more such a person is, the more likely they are to have rigid ideas and tend to be conservative.

Forget it, there was really no way to communicate this matter with the two of them as they were stubborn, so Chen Guohua had to quickly change the subject.

Chen Xiaoyue and the three of them beside them kept covering their mouths and laughing.

Then their eldest brother glared at me fiercely, "You are happy to see my joke, aren't you? Starting tomorrow, the homework will be doubled!"

Gah!
The smiles of the three little ones froze instantly, "Brother, you can't do this. Uncles and aunts, please help us. Brother, he bullied us again."

At this time, Yun Wanchang had to step forward to protect the three little ones.

Hu Pinggu, Chen Lihua and Chen Yuanchao looked at this heartwarming scene with smiles.

Scenes like this rarely happen at home anymore.

But since finding Chen Guohua in July, the smiles on the faces of Chen Gonglu and Yun Wanshang have increased.

In the next two days, Chen Guohua received relevant introductions about the labor and health system from Duan Yunping.

These introductions were almost the same as the information he had accessed.

It just so happens that the sports meeting is about to start. Judging from Chen Guohua's current 100-meter running results, it is really possible to get the certificate of an athlete.

Although Chen Guohua doesn't know the use of this so-called athlete's certificate, he will definitely do his best to run the best results possible.

So, his early morning training resumed.

It's just that he ran to pick up Yu Moli at five in the morning, and then they went to the sports field of No. 65 Middle School for training together.

San Xiaozhi, Chen Lihua and Chen Yuanchao also followed.

But Chen Lihua also followed her for two mornings, and then she returned to Jinling.

To be honest, Chen Guohua has never ridden a train in this era. I really don’t know what it is like.

But he was not looking forward to taking the train at all. After all, he had taken the green train in his previous life.

It was still the first decade after the millennium, and the train was not very fast. I sat on the train for more than 30 hours, playing poker until I went crazy.

The most important thing is that the smell on the train is simply amazing.

So after that time, he was no longer willing to travel far away.

Even if you travel far, it is better to take a plane instead of a train.

Later, when high-speed rail became popular, he switched to high-speed rail.

After training for three days, at 03:30 in the morning that day, Chen Guohua went to a small forest on a road three kilometers outside Xizhimen as agreed.

He met Yuan Yongxin, who pulled two carriages and transported [-] rice and [-] kilograms of flour directly.

Even if a bag of rice weighs [-] kilograms, it is still [-] bags of rice. Old Shen is much older.

Obviously, the other party transported it over several times.

Just look at the wheels on the road.

Yuan Yongxin is also very courageous and is a perfect match for Chen Guohua!
Yuan Yongxin was slightly surprised by the latter's audacity to come to trade alone, but he didn't take it seriously.

He didn't even ask how Chen Guohua would transport the grain later.

The entire transaction process was very peaceful and without any surprises.

It went so smoothly, which made Chen Guohua and Yuan Yongxin very happy.

After completing the transaction, the next transaction time was also determined, just three days later, at the same time and place.

Watching the carriage of Yuan Yongxin and others leaving, Chen Guohua turned around and entered the woods, and left from the other side a minute later.

Five minutes later, he returned to an intersection a few hundred meters away in the woods.

After confirming that Yuan Yongxin and the others did not fight back, Chen Guohua finally got up and left.

Even though he and Yuan Yongxin have traded many times, trust has been established.

But be careful, he doesn't want to be capsized all of a sudden.

After experiencing two accidental murders, Chen Guohua understood a truth: if you are fully prepared for everything, there won't be so many accidents.

Suppose now Yuan Yongxin and the others kill a carbine, or someone appears in this grove.

Then Yuan Yongxin can no longer be trusted.

Regardless of who came back to the grove, it was all caused by Yuan Yongxin's own lack of strength or ulterior motives, and he cannot be trusted in the future.

But now it seems that Yuan Yongxin is still trustworthy.

Now he has recovered 2 kilograms of grain, which is still half of the [-] kilograms.

However, he is running low on cash, and there are only two options at the moment.

Either sell the gold to the bank for cash, or the next time you trade, use US dollars to trade directly.

At present, he still has three large yellow croakers and three bundles of US dollars in his hand.

He had counted the U.S. dollars, and each bundle contained one hundred U.S. dollars worth of one hundred banknotes. In other words, if there were three bundles of U.S. dollars, the total would be 3 yuan.

According to the current exchange rate of one U.S. dollar to [-] yuan, then this [-] U.S. dollars is worth [-] yuan.

Of course, Chen Guohua would not casually exchange these U.S. dollars into RMB.

In the next 20 years, the value of gold and the US dollar will not change much, and the same is true for the RMB.

As long as he can ensure food, personal safety, etc., then these three large yellow croakers and three bundles of U.S. dollars in the space will basically just eat dust.

But no one can predict what will happen in the future.

Anyway, now, if Chen Guohua needs to continue to buy grain, he will still need more than 2000 yuan.

When you go to Pigeon Market in the next two days, if you see Yuan Yongxin, ask him if US dollars can be used to pay for food.

If possible, what is the exchange rate? At the same time, he will also ask what the US dollar price is in the pigeon market.At the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in the office next to the computer room, Chen Guohua, Xia Peisu and others were discussing something.

That was the design of the transistor computer.

A few days later, Hua Luogeng, Min Naida, Wang Chuanying, Xia Peisu and others were all completely misled by Chen Guohua.

The 104-type computer can no longer satisfy their growing hearts.

Mainly because after Chen Guohua proposed the idea of ​​integrated circuits that day, it seemed that his mind was liberated, and everyone started to develop in this direction.

The more I think about it, the more I realize that integrated circuits are really the only way for the mainland to surpass foreign countries.

And if you want to take this shortcut, you first need to remove the obstacles that stand in front of you.

That's the transistor computer!
The difficulty level of this thing cannot be said to be very high, it can only be said to be very high.

If it is said that the difficulty of designing and manufacturing a 104-type computer with a speed of [-] operations per second is hell, then the difficulty of a transistor computer is as difficult as the eighteenth level of hell.

No one can accurately predict how much further it will go.

Moreover, once the design drawings are completed, two difficulties immediately appear before everyone.

One is how to persuade the superiors to support the transistor computer project, and the second is the issue of funding.

Clearly, neither problem is easily solvable.

However, Chen Guohua did not need to consider these. He had already raised them anyway, and Academician Hua and others accepted his views.

The current task is to improve this design plan, perfect the design drawings, and then proceed to the next step.

As time goes by, early October has passed quietly.

That afternoon, when he was training at the sports ground of BAIC Manufacturing Plant, Liu Changan from the Administrative Section came over again and informed him that Section Chief Liu was looking for him.

"Why is Section Chief Liu looking for me?"

"Team Leader Chen, I guess it has something to do with the recent manuscript."

In the Administrative Section Office, Chen Guohua met Section Chief Liu.

The latter was very enthusiastic. They exchanged a few pleasantries when they met and asked Chen Guohua how he was doing recently.

The leader's behavior is controlled by Liu Changyou.

Obviously he is no longer the deputy director of the factory, but even if he is just a section chief, Liu Changyou is still very good at putting on airs.

Chen Guohua suppressed the discomfort in his heart, showed a professional fake smile, pretended that he still needed training as an excuse, and reluctantly dealt with the opponent.

He really didn't want to waste time with the other party if there was no benefit.

But soon, Chen Guohua beamed.

There has been a lot of fuss in newspapers recently about the issue of royalties.

"Xiao Chen, you also know that today's newspaper has published the latest standards for royalties. The royalties will be reduced by another 50.00% on the original basis."

Hearing Liu Changyou's words, Chen Guohua said in his heart that he really didn't know.

He has been very busy these days. How can he have time to read the newspaper?
However, he is very clear about the decrease in royalties.

After October [-]th, the royalties in the Mainland were directly reduced by half based on the previous royalties in August.

This means that Chen Guohua's current translation remuneration is no longer eight yuan per thousand words, but four yuan per thousand words.

He just handed in a translation manuscript of [-] words the day before yesterday.

If calculated based on the royalties of four yuan per thousand words, he would only get 120 yuan.

He has been short of money recently. To be precise, he is short of RMB.

This matter made him somewhat depressed.

Just when Chen Guohua was disappointed, he heard Liu Changyou say:

"But don't worry, Xiao Chen. We have already reviewed the manuscript you submitted the day before yesterday. We are notifying you to come over now to settle the manuscript fee for you."

"I fought for you in front of Secretary Duan for a long time, and then I helped you fight for it. I will pay you according to the previous remuneration of eight yuan per thousand words."

This is to ask for credit, to let Chen Guohua remember this favor.

After all, Chen Guohua lost 120 yuan.

Chen Guohua was speechless, but he had to show his gratitude.

If possible, he still doesn't want the eight yuan remuneration for a thousand words.

It's so simple to owe the other person a favor for no reason!

However, the other party has already said this and has also taken out all the money. If he refuses again, he will really offend others.

Forget it, within the scope of reasonableness and legality, there is no violation.

After all, the new standards for author remuneration were only published in the newspaper today, and he submitted the manuscript the day before yesterday. If the document for review was signed yesterday, then it would not be a violation for him to receive the remuneration now.

Chen Guohua can remember this favor, but that's all.

If the other party wants to ask him to return the favor in the future, he will definitely weigh it.

Of course, within reasonable and legal limits, he doesn't mind reciprocating.

With 240 yuan in hand, Chen Guohua left the administrative department.

"I can buy more food next."

In the early morning of the next day, he came to Pigeon City again.

"Comrade, do you sell this bacon?"

He was lucky today. As soon as he walked into the pigeon market, he saw someone selling bacon.

Although the wild boar in his space has not been dealt with yet, it does not prevent him from harvesting bacon.

The RMB cash on hand is already running low.

Fortunately, yesterday afternoon, Liu Changyou paid him 240 yuan in royalties. Otherwise, if he wanted to buy bacon now, he would have to exchange it for RMB first.

After buying the bacon, Chen Guohua went straight to the second dealer.

"Hello, comrade, do you accept US dollars here?"

"Do you have any U.S. dollars you want to exchange? Take it, we will certainly accept it. One U.S. dollar can be exchanged for three RMB. How many U.S. dollars do you have?"

so much?
The official channel is to exchange one dollar for two dollars and forty-six cents.

The black market price is a whole fifty-four cents higher. What's going on?

"Oh, let me ask first, and I will trade with you tomorrow."

Chen Guohua said calmly, then turned and left.

He wandered around the pigeon market for a while, bought hundreds of kilograms of grain and seven or eight kilograms of bacon, and then left.

Then he went to the Pigeon Market on the Dongzhimen side and asked about the U.S. dollar exchange rate again.

It turned out that if he wanted to buy U.S. dollars with RMB, he actually needed to spend five yuan to buy one U.S. dollar.

What the hell?

Is there such a huge profit difference?

You can only get three yuan in RMB when selling U.S. dollars, but it costs five yuan to buy U.S. dollars.

The price difference of two yuan is simply outrageous. It’s outrageous to open the door for me. It’s outrageous.

Chen Guohua does not quite understand the underlying reasons behind this price difference.

Perhaps there are not many people selling U.S. dollars, but too many people are buying U.S. dollars, which leads to such a special situation.

Is it because many people want to leave the mainland?
But now it’s [-], not [-] or [-]-[-].

After all, those years were quite chaotic, especially during the land reform, which was even more serious.

"Forget it, why should I go into all this? Come back tomorrow to find out more about the situation."

Since U.S. dollars are so valuable, Chen Guohua doesn't want to exchange them randomly.

It's best to find Yuan Yongxin and ask the other party's price.

In the blink of an eye, it was the early morning of the next day, and Chen Guohua visited three pigeon markets again.

It turns out that the exchange rate in each pigeon market is different.

The selling price of U.S. dollars is the lowest here in Xizhimen, only three yuan.

The highest price is on the Dongzhimen side, but it’s only [-] cents.

The prices for buying U.S. dollars are almost the same, they are all bought for five yuan in RMB.

So from this point of view, the second-hand dealers should have formed a relatively uniform price.

It's just that the price of purchasing U.S. dollars is different for each company.

The more Chen Guohua asked, the more confused he became. Then he had a sudden idea and followed an ordinary person who wanted to buy US dollars to the corner of the pigeon market to negotiate the price with him.

The other party needs to purchase a thousand dollars, and the exchange rate of five dollars is too high.

As soon as these words came out, Chen Guohua was still shocked.

One thousand dollars?
This is a super big fish.

Where can ordinary people have 5000 yuan?
In the darkness, Chen Guohua stared at the other party carefully through the faint starlight.

The clothes on the other party's body were in tatters and had patches.

This is really awesome.

"That's it, comrade, I only have 100 US dollars in hand. If you want to exchange it, just give me 490 five yuan in RMB."

After thinking about it, Chen Guohua took the initiative to lower the price.

However, the other party shook his head and said that one hundred US dollars was too little. What he needed was one thousand US dollars.

And the price of 490 is too high.

When Chen Guohua heard this, he thought to himself that this guy was not fishing for law enforcement, right?
"Forget it, I've already lost five yuan."

After muttering something, Chen Guohua turned around and left, but was stopped by the other party.

Everything is easy to discuss!

The buying and selling prices are indeed very different.

Both wanted to bypass the middleman, the second-hand dealer, and trade directly to avoid being charged the price difference.

But both of them were unwilling to accept it, so they talked for a while, but still couldn't agree on the price.

At this moment, Chen Guohua had already noticed that something was wrong.

It really doesn't look like the other party is here to buy U.S. dollars, it's more like fishing for law enforcement.

Thinking of this, Chen Guohua had to reluctantly agree to the other party's price and said that he would go back and get the money in a moment.
