Warship of Great Power

  Chapter 31 Computer Use

A few days later.

An IBM RS6000 UNIXRISC workstation was placed in the office of the shipyard, with printers and other equipment connected to it. The entire office has undergone some renovations, the floor has been laid, and the windows have been replaced with more tightly sealed steel windows. In a corner, there is also an air conditioner.

  Qin Tao was very happy, but Qin Baoshan was in pain.

   "This thing is too expensive. Including decoration and other expenses, we have already invested 100,000 yuan." Qin Baoshan couldn't help but said.

  In his eyes, this is similar to Song Weize's stealing money, it's all in vain.

"Old man, look at you who have never seen the world." Qin Tao looked at his father with contempt: "Computer design is the direction of future development. Our Mingzhou Shipyard is at the forefront of the times. You should feel that To be proud, it won’t be long before the Ship Design Institute will come to visit us. It’s not enough for me to be alone now. Later, we will recruit a group of college students and buy more than a dozen computers, and we will be able to **** their ships The business of the design institute is over."

  Qin Baoshan only felt that his son's bragging ability was getting stronger and stronger. His son could make money, but spending money was like flowing water.

   Fortunately, Qin Baoshan has prestige in Mingzhou Shipyard, and no one will say anything. If it is changed to another place, there will definitely be a lot of discussions.

Qin Tao ignored his father. It is useless to talk to them about the computer age. He has to prove it with facts. After operating on this computer for a month, he can probably design a double-body passenger ship. .

  Qin Tao looked at the computer he had just purchased.

Specifically, it is not a microcomputer of later generations, it should belong to a workstation. It uses a Power1 processor, but this processor is not a single chip, but several chips installed on a board to form a complete computer. processor.

Fortunately, its size is not large. Compared with those computer cabinets, it is more similar to a microcomputer. Its main circuits are placed in a flat case, and a professional computer is placed on the top of the case. The 21-inch monitor used for drawing is also equipped with a light pen for input.

  In the field of professional CAD drawing, the light pen is a common input device, which can be used like a pen to draw directly on the screen. This kind of thing has been around since the 1960s. Coupled with the special Pro/Engineer drawing software, designing a catamaran is nothing.

   Drip, Drip!

   At this moment, the sound of a motorcycle horn sounded outside, and Liu Minggang rode his Happiness 250 and came directly to the office.

   "Hey, there is new equipment, how tall is it?" Liu Minggang shouted outside.

"Stop! There are shoe covers at the door. If you come in, put on the shoe covers first!" Qin Tao shouted quickly. He looked at the cigarette in Liu Minggang's hand, and the ashes fell on the ground, and his face was even more unhappy: "Take the The cigarette is pinched! Throw it in the trash can outside!"

   "Little bastard, why are you talking to your Uncle Liu?" Qin Baoshan was a little dissatisfied.

  Liu Minggang didn't care: "Taozi is right, right, I won't go in, I'll be outside."

Now Liu Minggang, how dare he put on a posture of an elder, he has great admiration for Qin Tao, he has signed a contract with the island people, and the equipment of the island people is already on the way, when those equipment arrives Come here, his steel factory will also reach a new level.

   All of this is due to Qin Tao. Liu Minggang is extremely grateful in his heart, how can he feel Qin Tao's offense? Besides, computers seem to be high-end.

Standing in the corridor, Liu Minggang looked at the dock from a distance, and said, "Now, the dredger has been almost dismantled. Next, it's the turn of the submarine, right? Taozi, I heard that the submarine The steel used is even better!"

   "Of course, if you use a piece of submarine steel to make a kitchen knife, you don't need to sharpen it for ten years. It's used to chop the steel bars produced in our factory. It breaks as soon as you chop it, and it doesn't curl the blade at all." Qin Tao said.

   This is really not bragging, this kind of steel has very high strength, surpassing any kind of steel produced by domestic steel factories.

   "Really?" Qin Baoshan couldn't believe it.

"Old man, your attitude is not very good. You are obviously uneducated, and you are not open-minded to learn." Qin Tao criticized the old man while drawing on the computer: "Uncle Liu is better than you. He knows that the submarine is made of good steel. .”

"Taozi, do you think it would be a waste if these steels go into our steelmaking furnace?" Liu Minggang continued to say to Qin Tao: "If our steel factory opens a new production line and directly makes these steels into kitchen knives, you How do you feel?"

   "Not good." Qin Tao replied immediately.

   "Why?"

   "If you want to make kitchen knives, then our shipyard can do it. We also have various machining equipment. We make it ourselves and sell it. Why do we have to go through your hands?" Qin Tao said.

  Liu Minggang was a little embarrassed.

   "Since it is sold to you, it is for you to melt it into molten iron, and then re-smelt it into steel for use in our shipyard. Uncle Liu, if you don't do business and always think about those crooked ways, then our business..."

   "Uncle Liu is wrong, is it okay if Uncle Liu is wrong? Didn't Uncle Liu come here to discuss with you?" Liu Minggang was full of smiles.

   Qin Baoshan on the side wants to blow his beard and stare, you little bastard, are you kicking your nose in the face?

  Teach me a lesson first, and then director Liu, so it’s not big or small!

"Uncle Liu, these steels are very important. After entering your steelmaking furnace, we will use them to make catamarans after they are smelted. In the future, our Mingzhou Shipyard intends to make this our main business. You have to be careful. Qin Tao continued to beat: "Hire a group of professional steel-making masters to operate the steel plate hot-rolling equipment. This matter cannot be delayed."

   "What?" Qin Baoshan was a little dazed at the side: "Isn't the catamaran we want to build for civilian use? Is it necessary to use such good steel?"

  Qin Tao brought the submarine here. The pressure hull of the submarine is made of high-strength steel. Even if the performance of the steel deteriorates after remelting, it is far superior to ordinary civilian ship steel.

   Now, Qin Tao wants to use this kind of steel to make a catamaran, which is a bit wasteful!

  Qin Tao shook his head: "Old man, I told you to study hard. I have said a lot about the benefits of catamarans. Do you know the disadvantages of catamarans?"

   "Shortcomings, what shortcomings?"

"The strength of catamarans is not high. The ability to resist severe weather at sea is very poor. Therefore, we can greatly improve the strength of catamarans by raising the steel standards for building ships. We, Mingzhou Shipyard, must develop our own If the brand doesn’t hit a big shot, but instead has some bad effects, then our shipyard will be beyond salvation.”

  Qin Baoshan thought about it.

Over there, Liu Minggang was still frowning: "Yeah, I've been thinking about it recently, and I want to invite some old masters from Huating No. come!"

   "What's so difficult about this, I'll give you an idea!"

  PS: Khan, I have read a lot of book reviews, and I always want to reply, but they always say that my user is banned, and I am not allowed to reply to book reviews. Continue to ask for tickets and tickets, all kinds of requests!
