Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones

Li Qingsong, who had just acquired a new clone body and had a huge share of consciousness connection, was wealthy and powerful. He directly put 10,000 clones into chip research and development, striving to achieve a breakthrough in automation in the shortest time possible.

So these 10,000 clones were divided into several large teams. One team studied capacitors and resistors, one studied transistors, one studied materials, one studied chemical processing, and one studied chip structure, that is, what kind of pattern should be used to assemble those transistors together.

These are the hardware parts, and the last part of the clone is to study the software.

Li Qingsong wants to develop a programming language that matches his existing manufacturing level.

After all, hardware is not enough without software. With ever-changing, customized software, these chips can adapt to many different industrial scenarios.

In the huge laboratory, tens of thousands of clones are busy, and still follow the previous research model. If one clone makes progress, it will be immediately synchronized to all other clones.

Under such circumstances, technical research on this primitive and simple chip progressed rapidly.

Soon, the first batch of capacitors and resistors were produced in the laboratory.

Each of them is about five millimeters in length and two millimeters in diameter, as small as a grain of rice.

The clones carefully took them out, installed them on the equipment, measured their performance bit by bit, and then constantly adjusted the manufacturing process for continuous optimization.

It took about a month to produce the first batch of independent accessories that met Li Qingsong's requirements.

So, in a room, the final assembly work finally began.

Dozens of clones lined up in a row, each wearing magnifying glasses, holding tweezers in one hand and a welding gun in the other, and welded these parts as small as rice grains onto the board one by one, and then used wires as thin as hair to connect these small parts bit by bit according to the predetermined structure.

This is a very difficult job.

Not only do these clones need to be tense, but their arm movements also need to be extremely precise - a little more soldering may cause a short circuit, and a little less soldering may result in a loose connection. They also need to have a high level of mental concentration.

More than a thousand components as small as rice grains have to be soldered on a circuit board, and different components need to be connected to each other.

Which component is soldered where, and which component needs to be connected to which component, none of them can be wrong. If one is wrong, the chip will not work.

Therefore, Li Qingsong had to mobilize the brainpower of up to 100 clones and put them all into this task, so that the clones responsible for welding would not feel dizzy.

After a whole day of hard work, the first batch of dozens of "chips" were finally completed.

Compared with the first generation of chips made in human history, those made by Li Qingsong at this moment are undoubtedly much more advanced.

At least they did not use paper tapes and magnetic tapes as storage media, but instead used something called a "magnetic drum" to store data.

This thing is probably a cylindrical metal rod with some magnetic material on it, and the binary data is stored in the form of magnetized points on the surface of the metal rod.

This way, even if the chip loses power, the data can be stored on it for a long time, and once it is turned on, the chip can read the data again.

Such a metal rod can store about 1KB of data, which is enough for the current stage.

After completing the manufacturing of the first batch of 30 "chips" and the burning of the original program on the metal rods, Li Qingsong immediately commanded the clones to bring these chips to a metal casting production line.

This is a screw production line. In the past, 15 clones were needed to keep watch on this production line at all times to ensure its smooth operation.

One of the clones is responsible for filling, another is responsible for adjusting the speed of the conveyor belt, and another is responsible for packing screws of different specifications and separating them into two different processes.

Now, Li Qingsong has installed these 30 "chips" at different locations on this production line.

One of the chips is responsible for counting how many screws are conveyed on the conveyor belt per minute. After the statistics are completed, the current conveyor belt speed is read. Through the calculation of the internal program, it can be known whether the conveyor belt is running fast or slow, and automatically issue instructions to adjust its speed.

Therefore, the clone who had been here all day and was responsible for adjusting the speed of the conveyor belt can be withdrawn and go to work at other positions.

Another chip can read the readings on the dashboard to know the current temperature of the forging furnace, and based on this, automatically adjust the transmission speed of the fuel conveyor belt, increasing or decreasing it.

Therefore, the clones that were originally responsible for monitoring the forge and adding fuel can also be withdrawn.

There is also a chip that can read the readings of a small weighing instrument, thereby automatically determining the specifications of the screw that passed by the previous moment, and then deciding which subsequent process to transfer it to.

Therefore, the clone who was originally responsible for sorting the screws can also be removed.

After installing these dozens of "chips", the production line started again.

So Li Qingsong saw that the production line that originally required 15 clones to operate now only needed 4 clones to start operating, and the work efficiency was even higher than before!

After all, even if the clones work at full capacity, they still need to sleep, eat and rest. But the chips are different. As long as they have power and are not broken, they can work until the end of the universe!

The transformation of the first automated line was a great success.

Excited, Li Qingsong made a decision immediately.

"We need to mechanize and mass-produce capacitors, resistors, transistors, magnetic drums, connecting wires and circuit boards, and then assemble them mechanized and mass-assembled, and install them in every base, every factory, and every production line!"

As a result, the 10,000 clones who were originally responsible for researching chip technology were transferred to local production and became workers in Li Qingsong’s first chip factory.

It took more than two months, and several production lines were built by the clones. As a result, a steady stream of parts flowed out and were eventually sent to the last production line for packaging.

Here, they will be covered with an iron shell and the inside will be pumped with argon gas to prevent dust, collision and rust, greatly extending their service life.

The most common chip has a size of 10*8*3CM and can undertake the most basic tasks, such as reading numbers and simple calculations.

But in addition to this, Li Qingsong also made larger chips.

It’s the last day of the year, please support me with your monthly pass!!!

At the same time, tomorrow the new year begins, and one more chapter will be added. All three chapters will be released after 12 o'clock tonight, and there will be no updates tomorrow at noon.

I wish you all a happy New Year's Day and a happy New Year, and I also ask for monthly tickets! ! ! ! !
