Chapter 1362 A New Beginning (Second update, please subscribe)
"…the delivery of the F4 fighter jets also marks the restoration of the relationship between the two sides. Facts have proved that the relationship between the two sides can stand the test of time, and the arrival of this batch of fighter jets will inevitably enhance the company's air power…"

The news coming out of the car radio is not just news, but also the discussion of commentators. Although the conflict in Congo is somewhat of a secret to the outside world, the relationship between the company and the United States has indeed been tested to some extent in the past few months, which naturally has also caused some social discussion.

The conflict in Congo even caused market fluctuations. After all, capital is sensitive. However, now with the delivery of the US-aided aircraft, it means that everything is over.

While listening to the news, Luo Mingjie held the steering wheel of the car with both hands, and a report was placed on the passenger seat.

Before turning off the engine, he took another look at the report before putting it into his briefcase. He took a deep breath, walked out of the car with the briefcase, and walked towards the elevator.

IDM Corporation.

Two years ago, it was one of the thousands of companies in Borneo, not very prominent, but last year, with the success of the 101 microprocessor, IDM became the leader among dozens of electronics startups in the country, and overnight IDM became the darling of the market.

Now, with the success of Wang An's 100 electronic computer, the 101 microprocessor has been recognized by the market, and the company has rapidly developed into a well-known chip company.

And all this is thanks to Elias's foresight.

In the general manager's office, Elias stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing into the distance with a heart full of emotion. Back then, as a doctor, he chose integrated circuits and developed the first true microprocessor based on his idea!
The success of the 101 processor led to the success of IDM, and now Elias has a new goal.

At this time, the office door opened and Luo Mingjie walked into the office.

"Qingdu,"

They were college classmates, studied for a doctorate together, and founded this company together. During the development of the 101 processor, Luo Mingjie contributed a lot, and to a certain extent, it was he who created this processor.

"Mingjie, you're here just in time."

As soon as Luo Mingjie entered the office, Elias walked to the desk and said:
“Have you seen the news?”

"what?"

"The Ministry of International Trade and Industry's Bureau of Industrial Security has approved an export license for the sale of Deep Blue 2000 electronic computers to the United States."

Taking the newspaper from Elias and taking a look at it, Luo Mingjie thought of the previous news and said:

"The United States has resumed aid to the company, and we have approved the export license. Well... this is diplomacy."

"No, no, that's not what I'm talking about. Look at the price - 1680 million US dollars per unit! That's about 4200 million yuan! The domestic selling price of a Deep Blue supercomputer is as high as 2992 million yuan. The extra profit of a supercomputer is more than 1200 million!"

When mentioning this profit, Elias's expression was full of envy. How could he not be envious!

The money earned from exporting supercomputers is US dollars!
As we all know, in the past decade, the RMB has been stimulating exports by devaluing. From the initial 1:1 exchange rate with the US dollar, the exchange rate has been fluctuating around 2.5 now. For this reason, when settled in US dollars, the profits of enterprises are extremely considerable.

Then he added:
"Do you know how much our company's sales were last year? It was only over 10 million! Not as much as what they made from selling a supercomputer. After all, it's supercomputers like this that make money. I did a simple study of Deep Blue, and I think supercomputers are not that complicated. I think we have the ability to develop this, so I decided that this is our next research direction!"

"Supercomputer?"

Luo Mingjie said:
"Qingdu, regarding the company's next research, I have an idea, which is to fill the vacuum in the market below the 101 processor. The 101 microprocessor is indeed excellent, but it is too expensive, costing 1500 yuan. To build an independent computer with a processor of this price, it would cost at least 10000 yuan, even an ordinary BMW family car is only this price.

It is hard to imagine that any family or individual would be willing to pay such a huge amount of money to buy such a strange and bloated machine that they don’t know what it should be used for, so its buyers are mostly interested companies and universities, which naturally limits its market. ”

After handing over the report, Luo Mingjie said:

"So, I think we should develop a cheap processor, whose performance should be basically similar to that of the 101 processor, but the price should be only about 20% of it, or even lower, and then sell it to thousands of households."

"Are you dreaming?"

Elias said directly:
"Sell it to thousands of households? What do ordinary people use it for? Okay, okay, give up this idea. We don't need to develop this. From now on, our focus will be on it..."

Pointing to the news in the newspaper, Elias said:
"Mingjie, next year, next year we will show the world a more powerful supercomputer! By that time, we will become a company as powerful as International Electronics Corporation."

"But Qingdu, I think this is the future! We should..." Before he could finish, Elias said:
"Mingjie, these things are not what you think. You are good at technology, but you are an outsider when it comes to the market. Okay, it's decided!"

Faced with such an arbitrary decision, Luo Mingjie was a little confused. He obviously did not expect this to be the answer.

"But, Qingdu, we must see that the potential of this market is unlimited, and we should invest our efforts in this area."

Luo Mingjie's objection instantly made Elias's face turn ugly. He said:
"Mingjie, I have already decided on this matter. Supercomputers! The company will develop this in the future! As for the others, the company will not consider them for the time being!"

Wouldn't consider it!

The moment he walked out of the office, Luo Mingjie even had an urge to throw the report into the trash can, but in the end he suppressed his inner dissatisfaction.
At this time, he even figured out his own exact mood: either anger at his old friend's ignorance, or sighing at his lack of talent. But no matter what kind of mood it was, it did not extinguish his thoughts.

After returning to the office, Luo Mingjie looked at his colleagues who were busy working, thought for a moment, and said:
"Da Liu, please come to my office!"

Soon, facing Liu Yi who entered the office, Luo Mingjie said:
"Da Liu, I have an idea..."

Sometimes, a spark can start a prairie fire. Before that, many people would think that the spark is destined to go out. Only when it really burns up, people will realize that the world is changed by that spark.

Human beings should look forward. Only by looking forward can we see the future and hope. Just as Luo Mingjie left IDM with four assistants, at the other end of the company, in the Feiyue Radio Laboratory in Changan, a lady in a white dust-free suit was picking up an object from the table.

"That's it!"

The woman's lips curled up slightly, her pretty face full of anticipation, and the heavy samples in her hands had the Feiyue logo on them - Feiyue is one of the company's most famous laboratories, which was founded in New York, USA during the war.

This laboratory was originally located in New York, USA, and was not moved to Chang'an until more than ten years ago. However, it has always had a branch in New York and still employs hundreds of American technicians. It is one of the company's most important overseas laboratories.

Over the past decade, Feiyue Laboratory has achieved a lot of results in the field of electronics and also undertaken contracts from the military and other departments such as Space Exploration Technology Corporation.

However, the person in charge of this laboratory is a woman - Hedy Lamarr. This scientist who was a movie star is also a celebrity in the company. It is well known that she is the real "big lady". However, in addition to these two identities, she is also a scientist. The frequency hopping technology she invented has been widely used in the military and communication fields.

Because of this, there is a saying in the scientific community of the company: "No one smarter than her is as beautiful as her, and no one more beautiful than her is smarter than her."

However, Heidi has never been satisfied with this. In fact, she got on Li Yian's "pirate ship" because he promised to give her a laboratory, and Li Yian also fulfilled his promise - Feiyue Laboratory was his gift.

In the past decade or so, Heidi has spent most of her time studying and researching. Although she is still as beautiful as before, she is better known for her wisdom.

"8 years!"

Turning back, Heidi, holding the sample, said to her colleagues behind her with a smile:

"From the time this idea was proposed eight years ago to now, a full eight years have passed..."

At this moment, Heidi had forgotten the circumstances under which Li Yian came up with this idea. Was it in the study room? Or on the bed?
Does it matter?

It doesn’t matter. What matters is that the guy always has some weird ideas in his mind, and it was his weird ideas that made Heidi fall into the “trap”.

It took eight years to research. In the past eight years, she spent most of her time in the laboratory, working with other engineers to realize the idea bit by bit.

At this moment, looking at the sample in her hand, she couldn't help but mutter to herself:
"That guy would definitely be shocked if he knew this news!"

When the engineers around heard her say this, they all looked away and pretended not to hear her, because they knew who the guy the lady was talking about.

Gao Yishu, who was standing by, said:

“Ma’am, maybe you should make the first call yourself!”

First call!
The assistant's suggestion made Heidi's mouth slightly raised, and her beautiful face showed an intellectual smile, and her fingers gently pressed the familiar number...
