"We can use college students from various universities in Beijing Normal University to do the public test of CCED97 office software. But for the sake of confidentiality, we still cannot use the website to download the software to conduct the software public test." After thinking about it, Xu Zhenming decided to combine everyone's opinions and adopt A conservative software beta mode.
According to his vision, the Chinese college students are all angry with the younger generation and will take the initiative to help Yiming Group to keep secrets.Yiming Group uses the power of these college students to do software public testing, which not only saves time and money, but also accelerates the speed of software testing. Why not?
"This... this method seems to be dangerous, Xu Dong." But Zhang Chaoyang disagreed with Xu Zhenming's ideas.In his opinion, although college students are more patriotic than social people, there are also scum.This expanded form of public testing is likely to expose the commercial secrets of CCED97 office software.
"Just do it, we don't have time to think so carefully." At this time, Xu Zhenming waved his hand to confirm the matter.
After arranging the testing tasks of Xuanniao 97 desktop operating system software and CCED97 office software, Xu Zhenming immediately set off on his way home.At the end of 1996, Yiming Group has many projects to be completed, and he has no time to spend in the capital city.
As soon as he returned to Nan'an City, Xu Zhenming received a call from Lin Zhengxue, the person in charge of Yiming Data Company, saying that the 20GB server hard drive has been designed and ready for project acceptance and demonstration.
Speaking of the 20GB server hard drive and hard drive array cabinet project, it should be the last shortcoming of the Huaguo semiconductor industry.If Yiming Group also conquered the two projects, China would be able to make completely domestically produced electronic equipment such as personal computers, servers, minicomputers or mainframe computers.
So as soon as Xu Zhenming heard the good news, he immediately called Professor Long of the National Defense University, "Old teacher, we have completed the development of 20GB service hard drives. When will your project team be available? Where are you going to do the project acceptance test? "
Yiming Group has hard disk manufacturing bases and hard disk data research and development centers in Mindu City in Southern Fujian Province and Yuelu City in Southern Hunan Province.It stands to reason that all three locations, including Mindu City, Yuelu City, and the headquarters of Yiming Group, can be used to test and demonstrate 20G server hard drives.
This is one of the reasons why Xu Zhenming asks Professor Long for advice.
"Eh? So fast? Hahaha..." At this time, Professor Long was surprised to laugh on the phone.
He suggested to Xu Zhenming to set up a hard disk test laboratory in the Yiming Data Center in Yuelu City.In this way, colleagues in their project team can go to the laboratory for hard disk testing at any time.
Hearing these words, Xu Zhenming hesitated for a moment, "In this way, Professor Long is convenient, but our unit is very inconvenient."
After hesitating again and again, Xu Zhenming agreed to Professor Long's request and arranged for Guo Liansheng to be the director of the Yiming Data Center in Yuelu City to build a hard disk data test center.This data testing center is a workstation used to test 20GB server hard drives.
At the same time, Lin Zhengxue, the project leader, became the deputy director of the Yiming Data Center in Yuelu City and was responsible for assisting Guo Liansheng's work.
Be busy.On the afternoon of November 15, the hard disk test laboratory of the Yiming Data Center in Yuelu City was officially put into use.Xu Zhenming also rushed from the headquarters of Nan'an Yiming Group to Yuelu City to participate in the review and demonstration meeting of the 20G server hard disk and hard disk array cabinet project.
In the confidential meeting room of the Yiming Data Center in Yuelu City, Professor Long led his team members and Xu Zhenming led the team members of Yiming Group. They were all seated and preparing for a meeting.
The large projection screen projected on the wall is playing the PPT file of the DATA-30 server hard disk of Yiming Company.
"Professor Long, our DATA-30 server hard disk uses the GMR giant magnetoresistance effect head technology that our unit has just developed. The capacity of a single hard disk exceeds 5G, and the storage capacity of a single hard disk exceeds 20G. The speed of hard disk data exchange is fast. , The disk will save data for a long time."
At this time, the project leader Lin Zhengxue took the microphone to introduce the new hard disk technology to everyone in the conference room.
He told everyone that this kind of GMR giant magnetoresistance effect head technology is currently only available in China, the only one in the world.Although IBM in the United States and Hitachi in the island country have also announced that Shen is developing this technology, they have not seen their products and cannot count.
The technology of mechanical hard drives is related to industries such as machining, materials, semiconductors, and electronics.Only Americans and islanders in the world have very good skills in this area.But now, Yiming Group Corporation has also come up with this kind of product. Why does this make Professor Long and others unhappy?
"President Lin, when will your DATA-30 hard drive be mass-produced?"
"I heard that disks with GMR giant magnetoresistance effect head technology can store data at a particularly high density. Lin, our single disk has a capacity of only 5GB?"
"But don't care about his single disk storage data! We only need 20G server hard drives."
At this time, the engineers in the conference room all spoke, asking Lin Zheng some weird questions.
Lin Zhengxue really didn't want to answer these very layman's questions.
"Our country's machining level and material level are not good. Even with the most advanced GMR technology, our hard disk production accuracy can only reach the level of foreigners' MR technology. What can I do?" Lin Zhengxue shook his head helplessly.
In order to complete Xu Zhenming's important task and to complete national scientific research tasks, Lin Zhengxue's team applied the not yet mature GMR giant magnetoresistance effect head technology to DATA-30 hard drives.Therefore, the increase in the storage space of the DATA-30 hard disk is not very large, which surprised Professor Long's team.
Xu Zhenming knew this situation, but in order to complete the Galaxy III supercomputer project as soon as possible, he also agreed with Lin Zhengxue and others' approach.
"Ah...cough! Professor Long, we will be able to come up with 10-40GBinch2 storage technology around March 1997. But now, we can only provide you with this kind of transitional server hard drive." Xu Zhenming coughed dryly. Next, briefly introduce the reasons.
Hearing this, Professor Long couldn't help shook his head, "You can only do this. But fortunately, your team is also very powerful, and it can actually come up with the world's leading GMR technology."
"It doesn't matter Xu Dong, after our Galaxy III project is completed, there will be a project fund for upgrading spare parts every year. At that time, our project team will apply for a better server hard drive."
"Mr. Long is right. Anyway, the DATA-30 hard drive we are using now should be the fastest hard drive in the world."
"Not only is the speed the last, but the technology is also the best."
At this time, Professor Long's team members all accepted Xu Zhenming's approach.What they are concerned about now is the technology and delivery time of the hard disk array cabinet.
The hard disk array cabinet is the data storage center of the supercomputer. It must be large in capacity, fast in speed, and stable in data storage.Not only that, but also special algorithms must be used to not affect the speed of the supercomputer.
Some supercomputers store a lot of data, which is described by the level of TTB.With such a large data capacity, if the operating system needs to range frequently, it will definitely waste the CPU resources of the supercomputer.Because of this, a good hard disk array cabinet can save the CPU resources of the supercomputer.
Therefore, Professor Long and his team members are very concerned about the technical parameters and actual performance of the hard disk array cabinet that Yiming Group has just developed.These people looked at the big projection screen intently and listened to Lin Zhengxue's speech with their ears erect.
"Experts, the technology of our hard disk array cabinet is actually from IBM in the United States. Our current model is Xenia-128SDATA hard disk array cabinet management system." But Lin Zhengxue had a calm expression at this time and introduced this slowly. The performance parameters of this hard disk array cabinet.
The participants in the conference room are all from the same family, so Lin Zhengxue told the truth.He told everyone that the DATA-30 hard drive technology and the Xenia-128SDATE technology are both from the IMB company in the United States.
It is not easy for IBM in this era. The hard disk was invented by this company.The miniaturization of hard disks, the civilianization of hard disks, server hard disks, hard disk array cabinets, and other technologies are all first developed by IBM.
Therefore, the Hard Disk Data Division of IBM is actually the Huangpu Military Academy of hard disk engineers worldwide.Lin Zhengxue was commissioned by Xu Zhenming to establish a hard disk manufacturing plant and a hard disk R&D center.He has no talents, so he can only recruit masters from the hard disk data division of IBM.
Among these people, two engineers who invented the GMR technology brought the technology to Yiming Data Company because of their lack of talent.
Of course, what they bring is not only hard disk storage technology, but also the most advanced hard disk array cabinet technology.Only then has the Xenia-128SDATE ultra-large capacity hard disk array cabinet.
"Papa papa papa..." After listening to this explanation, there was a burst of applause in the meeting room.
Professor Long and others no longer worry about whether the performance of the hard disk array cabinet provided by Yiming Group is stable.
"Yiming Group uses IBM's hard disk technology, and the product performance must be very good."
"Xu Zhenming is really willing to spend money."
"Now that's good, our Galaxy III project has got the most advanced hard disk technology, and it should be able to produce results soon."
The technicians under Professor Long were all thinking about it at this time.
Seeing the color of hesitation on these people’s faces disappear, Lin Zhengxue smiled and continued to introduce, “Everyone, the Xenia-128SDATE ultra-large capacity hard disk array cabinet produced by our group company uses parallel bus technology, outline data preview technology, Intelligent search technology, etc."
He told the attendees that these technologies are all new inventions of Yiming Data. Data models and algorithms come from the core algorithm technologies of Xuanniao operating system.
In other words, the hard disk technology R&D team of Yiming Group does not completely copy the technology of IBM of the United States, and can innovate and release data storage technology by itself.
Not only that, these new technologies are very compatible with the Xuanniao operating system, which can improve the computing speed, efficiency, resource allocation rate and so on of the worry system.
Hearing this, Professor Long and others were shocked.
"Parallel bus technology? What does this technology mean, why haven't I heard of it?"
"Pharaoh Wang makes sense. The data preview technology and intelligent search technology are also very unfamiliar. The Americans seem to have not mentioned the theory of computer technology."
"Wow, our country can invent so many new technologies. Doesn't it mean that our hard disk technology has come to the forefront of the United States?"
"It should be surpassed the old rice. Ten years to surpass the rice, 15 years to catch up with the British! Hahaha..."
The conference room was already very lively at this time, and Professor Long and his team members all started talking with a smile.
Everyone is in a very good mood, for two reasons.
First, the technology produced by Lin Zhengxue's team is the original version of IBM, which is reliable and trustworthy;
The second is that Lin Zhengxue's team also produced its own unique technology. The Chinese finally made a breakthrough in mechanical hard disk technology and no longer rely on foreigners' hard disk storage technology products. This is the main reason why everyone is very excited.
Seeing this scene, Lin Zhengxue smiled heartily and looked at Xu Zhenming.
"It's still our Xu Dong's strategy that is relatively high, and a small strategy will complete today's technical seminar." He thought with deep emotion.
In fact, the source of the hard disk technology of Yiming Data Company is not only from IBM.Many engineers come from other hard disk companies in the United States, and the concept of the new technology GMR does not come from IBM.
After entering 1995, IBM's investment in hard disk data storage technology was not very large. It was overtaken by companies such as Seagate, Western Digital, and Hitachi.Because of fierce competition, many small companies and factories engaged in hard disk production in the United States are being merged by large companies.
It was from the unemployed army of these companies that Lin Zhengxue found two engineers who were engaged in GMR technology, and spent a lot of money to develop GMR technology.This was the scene just now.
"It's really difficult to develop a new technology!" Lin Zhengxue said with feelings.
Seeing his expression, Xu Zhenming just smiled and did not speak.He motioned Lin Zhengxue with his eyes to continue to introduce the product and continue to flicker.
"Professor Long, dear leaders, the parallel bus technology of the hard disk array cabinet is a new invention of our unit, mainly to solve the technical problems of data exchange between many hard disks, data exchange between hard disks and operating systems."
After receiving the signal from Xu Zhenming, Lin Zhengxue decided to continue to introduce the technical parameters and technical principles of the Xenia-128SDATE ultra-large capacity hard disk array cabinet.
This new type of hard disk array cabinet adopts the latest designed data communication chipset, and the data exchange protocol is also a redefined ASIC code chipset.
Through the application of these many new technologies, the data exchange speed of the Xenia-128SDATE ultra-large-capacity hard disk array cabinet is increased by more than 40%, and the data exchange redundancy rate is reduced by 30%.
In other words, this large-capacity hard disk array cabinet comes with a data exchange CPU system, which can save the CPU time and resources of the Galaxy III supercomputer.
This is the first time that this kind of technology and concept has appeared, and Yiming Group has created a new situation.
"Eh? Is there an application of this new technology?" Therefore, Professor Long was dumbfounded after listening to Lin Zhengxue's introduction.
"We can use college students from various universities in Beijing Normal University to do the public test of CCED97 office software. But for the sake of confidentiality, we still cannot use the website to download the software to conduct the software public test." After thinking about it, Xu Zhenming decided to combine everyone's opinions and adopt A conservative software beta mode.
