Chapter 1932 Old Fifth Xu
"Old Xu," Elder Xu Yicheng, who was listening to the familiar low-pitched male voice, who was immersed in the BBS of the Senate to understand the sentiments of the people, immediately guessed what he was going to hear next: "Can you trouble me to look at the hall again, Just now the kindergarten called and said that the child has been crying."

Looking up and seeing the haggard and anxious face of the middle-aged man, Mr. Xu Yuan lost his original intention to ridicule. After all, he is an old colleague who has worked together for many years. .Since the second plenary meeting passed the clause that the general office has the right to intervene in the elders' housework, under the "strong suggestion" of the elders, the general office, in the name of implementing the "centralized parenting system for the elders' children", actually The authorities deprived Zhang Yunmi of her father's life secretary Yun Yu's custody rights, and sent the two children to the nursery affiliated to the Academy.

In this way, the elders are basically satisfied, but Zhang Yunmi's father is out of luck.Now Yunyu can't take care of the child, and the nursery school has to notify the parent of anything.It made Lao Zhang want to cry without tears, and Yun Yu was tossing at home every day.Lao Zhang often cried to Lao Wu about his family crisis.Xu Lao Wu could almost hear calluses from the bottom of his ears.

This kind of troublesome housework and relationship matters are mixed together, and I, an outsider, have little room to speak.Xu Yicheng basically held the attitude of "understanding and sympathy", and helped him as much as he could, so naturally he didn't make things difficult for him this time.Sending off Zhang Yunmi's father who thanked her repeatedly, Elder Xu Yuan locked the computer desktop, opened the door and walked out.

He locked the door casually and walked through a corridor dotted with diamond-shaped transom windows that are common in the area, and through a small patio, he arrived at the hall just mentioned.

From the outside, the computing and data center of the Senate is a common truss building in the industrial area of ​​Bairen City.The towering wrought iron frame is filled with locally fired red bricks, and the entire exterior wall is not decorated with any other decorations. At first glance, it looks like a large factory building under the original manufacturing director.

But if you look carefully, you will find many differences. On one side of the first floor, there are steps up the stairs and a wide door leading directly to the second floor. The other three sides are almost entirely made of red bricks, except for a few small ventilation holes and two places. There are basically no windows outside the passageway guarded by sentries.The second and third floors are covered with bright large glass windows. As the evening approached, bright lights shone through them. High and fairly rare steady white electric lights.

If you have a chance to look down, you will find that there are rows of skylights for lighting and ventilation on the jagged roof, and there are no drive shafts that are common in factories near the roof, but you can see staggered wire tracks. An illusion of cobwebs covering the hall, a bit like a modern art gallery in another time and space.Coupled with the relatively conspicuous volume, this building, which was just completed more than half a year ago and is still expanding, usually attracts passers-by to stop and watch.In fact, a few years later, this so-called "mid-to-new" style, which is a mixture of "modern architectural functional structure + fair-faced brick walls + traditional style outlines, proportions, and details", will become a representative architectural trend in the early days of the founding of Australia and Song Dynasty.

Although it is an internal passage, although the guards know him, they still have to show the pass to the guards when entering the hall.The data computing center is the "black technology" of the Senate. There are too many secrets and too precious equipment that need to be protected, so the pass system with different colors and different validity periods is adopted here.The color of the pass restricts the places where the pass holder can enter and exit and the scope of business.

Even veterans are not unimpeded in the data center.This system works for everyone.

Xu Laowu holds the highest-level pass in the data center. There are only a few such passes, and they are all veterans working in the data center.

"Hi sir!" The guard behind the door opened the door leading to the hall.As soon as Xu Yuan walked in, there was a warm wind mixed with the smell of ink, paper, light powder and human smell.At the same time, there are the sounds of abacus, the sound of clips sliding on the wire, and the low hum of the ventilation fan. With the bright electric lights, Xu Yuan often returns to an old-fashioned accountant in the original time and space. The illusion of the lobby.After a short walk, we came to the arcade in the middle of the third floor. Against the backdrop of the huge Xingquan national emblem and the Venus flag on the opposite wall, we can clearly see the two radial layouts of the wire spider webs.

One end of the spider web is connected to a service counter similar to the lobby of Delong Bank. There are clerks and messengers wearing gray uniforms climbing up the stairs in front of the door, taking out stacks of documents and handing them over to the counter, who are also wearing gray uniforms inside the counter. The female clerk will check and organize the materials, issue a receipt listing the type of materials and the number of pages, stamp them and return them to the other party.Then she would put the data label in the folder above her head, and with a light push with her hand, she would fly to a certain area in the hall behind. With a sound of "whoosh", the folder flew to a certain high table marked "So-and-so Reporting Group", and was quickly removed.Near the table, there are rows of IKEA-style wooden desks and chairs. The removed data will be assigned by the team leader to the clerk in front of the table for checking and review, and then summarize them into a standardized data form.Usually, after a burst of intensive abacus, the original materials are put in the trolley aside, waiting to be stored in the warehouse on the first floor, and several pages of data tables are put into another folder. Once again, it was pushed to a counter at the back of the hall through the cobweb-like track. After checking the number and quantity, the female clerk on the counter would continuously pass through a door and send the data form to a certain glass partition behind her. open room.

Elder Xu Yuan knows that there is an absolute artifact of this time and space, dozens of input computer terminals and servers connected to it.Thanks to these artifacts, there are not many rooms with ground-source air conditioners in Lingao and even in this time and space.Even the incoming air is filtered in multiple stages to reduce dust and other harmful components entering the house.

Those who work there are all female students trained by him.Recalling how they were when they first came to participate in the training, Xu Yuan still feels scratching his head. Training a group of ancient illiterates who do not understand the language to operate computers is almost the most difficult thing he has done in this world and in the previous time and space.Many times, Elder Xu Yuan wanted to whip a few people to death with a rattan cane.At one stage, the third largest user of the standard rattan manufactured by the wood processing factory was the computing center.

However, after Xu Lao Wu was physically and mentally exhausted, the operation student's sister cried for her father and mother, and Feng Nuo's face turned blue from repairing the computer system day and night for several months, the Chinese tradition of hard work and studious since ancient times seems to have finally come to an end. It works.After weeding out almost two-thirds of the trainees, Xu Yicheng trained the first batch of operators who could basically operate independently.

This group of operators can be quite skilled to complete the general data entry work.With their guidance, things finally started to become a little easier.But Xu Yuan soon discovered that these girls would hold something on their chests and mutter before going to work.One day, Mr. Xu Yuan, who couldn't restrain his curiosity, half-compulsively took out such a thing from the chest of one of them, and found that it was a small wooden pendant with a fox's head painted on it.It turned out that the old man who developed the data input interface at the beginning used the fox head of FoxPro as the splash screen to save trouble. Since then, the legend of the fox fairy living in these shells has been circulating in the data center of the Senate Planning Institute.

Facts have proved that the power of these great immortals is enormous.This was most fully demonstrated during the last engine operation.With the help of these artifacts, demographic analysis and material loss analysis, which historically took several years or more to complete, can be completed within a few weeks. Not only can leaders of relevant departments check them in time in front of their computers, Even the soy sauce veterans of the Senate can find quite detailed and specific data on the BBS.However, it can be seen from the few chatty replies and the few clicks that most of the data have no meaning in the minds of these veterans.But in the mouths of the Executive Committee and relevant ministries and bureaus, the Data and Computing Center has indeed established its own reputation.This is probably the reason why this building was able to obtain funding and have such a high standard.

However, Elder Xu Yuan knew that these powerful artifacts would eventually be useful, and Feng Nuo talked to him about this matter every day.Under the glamorous appearance is the maintenance work with trepidation—Xu Laowu never goes to the server room. First, he doesn't know much about the technology inside, and second, it also reduces disturbance to the server.In that quiet fully enclosed constant temperature and humidity computer room, the less people enter, the better.

This point has been fully considered in the new construction of this building.Before long, the completed data forms will no longer be directly archived as they are currently, but will be transferred to the adjacent hall under construction, where a group of clerks will begin to try to manually summarize and disaggregate the data, directly by hand or by future planned machines. The computer is used to make statistics and report the final report, and it is updated synchronously to several data tables occupying several walls and several large demonstration sand tables corresponding to them.

This approach has been used by the Planning Institute, the Ministry of Finance and Civil Affairs in the past, and now the Planning Institute has decided to fully promote it, introducing a computing center to make it larger.To gradually fill and replace decaying computer systems.In the previous stage, Feng Nuo spared no effort to promote the electromechanical computer system, in fact, he also saw this trend.
