Chapter 624: The Joy of a Garbage Man (First two chapters, one more chapter at 9pm)
"Sukabulie!"*3!
The reactions of the three people made Petrovich, who was in excitement, a little confused. Are you guys so happy that you've gone crazy?
Not really, Petrovich admitted that the computer of the Southern comrades was a good thing, but...
"Comrade Sergeyev, I think you don't need to get so excited about such a small thing. Although in addition to these, they have also opened up some new products for export, but added together, it won't make you lose your composure."
These things called LED light-emitting components and cassette portable music devices are good, but probably not that good.
Sergeyev uttered "Sukabile!" again and pointed at Vitali and Anatoly.
"Comrade Petrovich, these two are Comrades Vitali and Anatoly. They are responsible for replicating the Southern DJS-59. Can you guess why they are here?"
Petrovich looked at the two men, his face full of shock, and turned his head after a while: "Ah, respected Comrade Sergeyev, I didn't expect that you had already predicted the actions of Comrade Nanfang and wanted to stop the imitation of DJS-59 in advance. Your wisdom is really amazing!"
Petrovich! I'm going to tear your head off and kick it like a ball!
It was not known whether he was pretending to be stupid or really was stupid. Sergeyev was obviously no longer in the mood to beat around the bush with him: "No, my comrade, they came to report to me that they have successfully completed the imitation work."
Petrovich smiled sincerely: "Aha, my comrades, thank you, you did a great job! Now we can put pressure on the other side."
Being able to produce transistor computers on their own is undoubtedly good news, as it will give them more trade initiative.
Although he knew that he was sincerely congratulating himself and his comrades, for some reason, Sergeyev always felt that he was being sarcastic, and he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.
"Comrade Petrovich, the problem now is that the cost price of our imitation products is at least 15% higher than that of the south." If he had not considered the face of Vitali and the others, he would have used "Sukabulie" as the leading word of this sentence.
But two comrades who have worked hard and made efforts are here. If I say that, it will obviously be like pointing at a monk and calling him a bald donkey. The Russians don't have this saying, but the principle is universal.
“15%, that’s great! We can do a lot with this space.”
Petrovich still made the kind of comments that sounded unclear.
"No, Comrade Petrovich, it's 15% of what it was before they dropped the price!"
"Hmm?" Petrovich frowned.
"Well! Now you understand the seriousness of the problem, right?"
After doing the math, this means that the cost price of self-production is 25% to 28% higher than the import price. Given this price difference, if the country wants to maintain self-production, it will need to give a full explanation to the Dawalis in charge of economic issues in multiple institutions, including the Economic Committee, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Lubyanka.
Comrade Nan Fang's new offer was not only received by them, but also by others. There were many people eyeing Sergeyev's position.
If no reasonable explanation can be given, even though the Gulag is gone, the Gulag Hotel is still in operation.
Petrovich made a quick decision. This matter was not something that could be discussed and decided now, but he was sure that the second half of what he said was really good news.
"Comrade Sergeyev, let's put this matter aside for now, but you must take a look at the new computer they are opening for export! It's really a good thing."
It seems that he may need to think deeply about letting his comrades in various links in the country get "training". He still has to give face to his right-hand man, and Sergeyev, who is somewhat bored, picked up the documents brought by Petrovich.
"Oh, Vladimir, what the hell am I seeing?" Sergeyev exclaimed.
Hearing his exclamation, Anatoly couldn't help but said, "Comrade Sergeyev, if this is computer-related, can you let me take a look?"
Sergeyev thought for a moment and handed him the document in his hand: "Davary, you must stay calm."
Anatoly took the document and leaned forward with Vitaly.
The two of them just glanced at it quickly, and their reaction was even greater than Sergeyev's: "Impossible! This is impossible!"
Some huge breakthroughs beyond common sense, such as this computer named DJS-60D, have caused a much greater shock to insiders like them than to outsiders!
Two 50*50cm circuit boards can complete the same work as two DJS-59 cabinets, which is too shocking for them.
They have seen many computers, including many that can calculate quickly, but they have never seen one with such a small speed.
This isn't technology, this is fucking magic!
It has long been rumored that superpowers are prevalent in the southern country, and it seems that the rumor is true.
Apart from this reason, they have no way of explaining how this thing was made.
They couldn't even imagine or estimate what technology was used. It was like in later science fiction films, aliens must look like humans, right? Even if they don't look like humans, they must look like creatures, right?
Sergeyev stared at the two men and said, "Davri, from a technical analysis, is this true?" The two men put down the documents in their hands and said, "I hope it's not true, but it is definitely true, just like before we saw the DJS-59, we couldn't imagine it would be like that. Although this type of computer is even more incredible than the DJS-59, we still recognize the credibility of Comrade Nan Fang."
In fact, Sergeyev also knew that since the southern comrades could put this new computer called DJS-60D on the export list, they must have strong confidence, and their credibility is as reliable as their combat effectiveness.
"So, is this thing useful?"
"Comrade Sergeyev, there is no doubt about it. DJS-59-class computers are extremely lightweight and can be used without my further explanation."
Whether civilian or military, its uses are huge and wide-ranging. Anatoly is too lazy to even list them one by one. It would be a lengthy process.
Sergeyev covered his forehead with his hands. He could even imagine the flood of telegrams once the news spread.
After looking at the prices on the list, Comrade Nan Fang was very considerate and set the price of DJS-60D at 59 times the new price of DJS-1.5.
Even higher than our own knockoff DJS-59!
Southern Foreign Trade Department: Isn’t this to leave profit space for you to develop transistor computers? You’re welcome!
They are pretty nice people.
As if to confirm his thoughts, a phone call came in.
Looking at the jingling red telephone on the table, Sergeyev rushed over and picked up the receiver with both hands.
The person on the other end of the line said only one thing: "I want that DJS-60DJ, at any price!"
Sergeyev put down the phone, looked at the single item on the permission list, and a wry smile appeared on his face.
——DJS-60DJ (military reinforced): price is negotiable.

Gao Zhendong, who had no idea that he had done a big job for the Russians in the north, was now doing another big job. However, without special reasons, the Russians would not be able to see this big job in the foreseeable future.
The two sets of masks he sent have been returned from the Northeast Institute of Optics and have been put into production at Factory 1274.
In Gao Zhendong's words from his previous life, the tape-out and packaging were completed, and he received the first batch of 100 pieces each.
This is the power of integrated circuits. Gao Zhendong left enough redundancy for these two chips, so the chip DIE area is relatively large, "as high as" 2*1cm.
Don’t laugh, this area is really large for a chip.
Theoretically, if a 130mm wafer is used for production, 66 chips can be produced, but in reality this is impossible because the rectangular chips cannot fill the entire circle.
Gao Zhendong made the DIE of the chip into a rectangle, in fact, just to fill the gap of the round wafer as much as possible.
But after deducting the corners and cutting lines, there are still about 50 pieces.
Including the wafers scrapped during the production and inspection process, only 200 wafers were used in this batch of 10 trial production chips.
This is because the 1274 process is not familiar.
Gao Zhendong ordered the scrapped films to be thrown into a special incinerator, and not a single piece was allowed to be kept. These things were precious and should be recycled if possible.
Gao Zhendong's designs have always been produced in the workshop with the highest confidentiality level at Factory 1274, and no questions are ever asked. They just do whatever Gao Zhendong says, and they have no idea what is being produced.
Holding 200 chips in his hands, Gao Zhendong was filled with emotion. In just a few days, Factory 1274 used part of its production capacity to easily produce the core parts of 100 computers.
Looking back to the time when DJS-59 was first produced, triodes were produced domestically and imported through secret channels of Zhenxing Electric. Despite all their efforts, the initial monthly output of DJS-59 was only 5 units.
This is love... no, technology!
Moreover, these 100 units are faster than DJS-59 because the frequency has been increased. When computers do not have superscalar pipelines, out-of-order launch, on-chip cache, hyperthreading, multi-core and other fancy features, frequency is everything under the same architecture.
What Gao Zhendong has in his hands now is the core of the computer: CPU and RAM.
As for the north and south bridge chips responsible for the bus and interface that people knew about in his previous life, they were not available for the time being. Gao Zhendong used logic circuit chips to build them on the circuit board. At this time, the peripherals were simple, and there was no other arrangement on the bus except for the math co-processing chip, so he did not waste energy on it.
Gao Zhendong took out two circuit boards prepared by the electronic laboratory of the third branch factory and began to insert chips one by one on them. Until then, Gao Zhendong rediscovered the fun of playing DIY as a garbage collector in his previous life. Rubbing the CPU with triodes by hand was really too hardcore.
