Chapter 1450: 1451 I guess they won.

In another corner of the world, a man in a white coat looked at a square sheet in his hand, and complained to his colleagues somewhat differently: "I don't understand, this is already a miracle, but why does your majesty Still unwilling to popularize this magical thing on a large scale.”

"It's such a small thing, it can hold hundreds of world famous books, millions or even tens of millions of words... This was simply unimaginable in the past." As he spoke, he stroked the piece of paper with his hand. floppy disk.

  Yes, that is a computer floppy disk. Compared with past storage technologies, this thing can simply be described as a miracle.

 In the eyes of the technicians who developed this floppy disk, it represents the future! It represents a distant future that they could not even imagine.

Just five years ago, the storage modules of computers were as huge as refrigerators. If you wanted to store some data, you would need an area as large as an entire factory building, filled with storage modules.

 But now, the storage modules of the small computers used in universities in the Tang Empire are only as big as a washing machine. Now, real microcomputer technology has become popular in the military field and has expanded crazily in the civilian field.

It is no exaggeration at all. Hard drive technology has been quite mature in the Tang Empire. Nowadays, a computer hard drive can store dozens of gigabytes or even more than a hundred gigabytes. It is simply unimaginable for this world.

And this is not the most advanced technology. The most advanced technology is still in the laboratory stage. Many terrifying technologies are still in the exploration stage, and there is still a long way to go before large-scale mass production.

 So, in the opinion of many experts, disk technology is the most cutting-edge super storage technology in the world. With this thing, everything will become convenient and fast.

The only regret is that it seems that His Majesty the Emperor is still not satisfied with this floppy disk technology. He does not allow this kind of thing to be manufactured in large quantities and can only be circulated and used within a limited scope.

It seems that in the eyes of His Majesty the Emperor, this device with powerful storage capabilities and fast reading and writing speeds is just a transitional product, and its performance is only barely adequate.

"I don't think you need to question His Majesty the Great Emperor on this point. He is the God of Technology, and you will never be able to catch up with his vision in a lifetime, or several lifetimes, so your questioning is basically no different from blasphemy." Technician The colleague shrugged his shoulders and said slightly mockingly.

His words left the other party speechless, because in the field of technology, His Majesty the Emperor has always been a guiding light. Question the emperor? He really doesn't have the qualifications.

This is not because of the emperor's status, but because of the emperor's academic ability - no one dares to question a god, and in the eyes of these technicians, Tang Mo is a god.

After waking up his colleague, the colleague who was busy at work continued: "I heard that the results of the team next door are coming out soon. That thing is better and has almost no flaws."

Indeed, in his opinion, that thing has indeed advanced to an unbelievable level. I heard that it only needs a volume as big as a finger to accommodate a dozen gigabytes of super-huge "content".

 Compared with this thing, there is actually another thing that the Tang Empire is coming up with, which is really eye-opening. internet! Tang Mo's infrastructure construction in Chang'an, or in other words, infrastructure construction in major cities has been rolled out, and the Internet has become a new plaything for many nobles.

 A new, miraculous world is being built. Although it is still crude now, the future it represents has made many smart people realize its importance.

It’s just that all the current technology is still firmly in the hands of Datang Group, and Tang Mo has no plans to give this piece of cake to others. He is also unlikely to give it up to anyone else because he understands the importance of the Internet better than anyone else.

“Damn it, those guys are progressing so fast? I thought it would take at least two years to come up with that thing.” The technician who just complained that the disk technology he developed was not taken seriously sighed depressedly.

It’s not that he doesn’t know the power of USB flash drives, it’s just that he really doesn’t know that such a thing can be tested so quickly and produced in real form.

"It's only at the laboratory level. I heard that the equipment is being manufactured. It's hard to say whether it can be mass-produced, so we haven't disbanded yet." A colleague who knew more than him gave a general idea. Nowadays, there is really no way to make the technology of USB flash drive popular immediately, but it is indeed more powerful than the disk.

 In fact, it’s not just the group they are in, there is also a group of people next door who are responsible for developing optical discs. I heard that that thing was even more of a pity. Originally, the technical staff there thought that they were responsible for the truly most advanced technology.

  Because compared to floppy disks, optical disks are easier to save and have a larger capacity... Unfortunately, that thing now seems to be in the category of being eliminated before it is very popular.

This is the case in the technology department of the Tang Empire. Many technologies that have never been heard of in other countries, and even technologies that can set industry standards and cause waves, have not had the opportunity to be mass-produced.

These things will basically be divided into two categories: one type can be used to fool enemies into following suit when necessary; the other type can be shared with "allies" when necessary...

  Yes, if you are lucky, they do have a chance to be used in other countries for a period of time. If you are not lucky, these technologies will be buried by time and become the cornerstone of trial and error for one world for another.

  So far, storage particle technology is not yet mature, and the Tang Empire has no way to mass-produce it. This does require some time to accumulate, and Tang Mo has no way to improve the world's precision processing capabilities all at once. All equipment needs a little bit of debugging, and all processes need a little bit of debugging.

 At this level, it doesn’t take just a few workers to desperately improve certain process machine tools to achieve mass production. Many roads can only be taken step by step, and many problems must be solved practically.

 This is why Tang Mo has to carry out so many experiments at the same time, and race against time to carry out many research and development projects at the same time: these roads must be walked through in order to cultivate the corresponding talents, and in order for the world to understand these technologies that are like a book from heaven...

"They probably won." Hearing that the other party had begun to study whether it could be mass-produced, the technician who complained at first sighed and said feebly.
