In addition to this missile project, the Swedes also tailored a package of framework agreements for Iraq.

Iraqi missile boats need to be equipped with Sweden's new air-to-sea search radar, or even a complete system, which can greatly improve the combat capability of missile boats. Iraq needs a new standard anti-aircraft gun, Sweden's Bofors The double-barreled anti-aircraft gun is a good choice to make up for the lack of surface-to-air missiles. Iraq is still unable to produce portable air defense missiles. Sweden's RBS-70 portable air defense missiles can allow Iraq to have this capability, and the production line is also fully capable. Output, Iraq cannot produce tank fire control systems, Sweden can help, especially the infrared night vision system... The information listed in this item is summed up by Hikmat, although Hikmat is very big , still faithfully carrying out his mission, this time, President Qusay should send more people from the military to follow!

Qusay didn't feel his head was big, those things made him very excited, he had an impulse to take people, drive a ship, and rob Sweden!

The Swede seized on his dead spot. He really needed all these things, and he had to obediently spend money to buy them back at a high price.

Fortunately, there is no need for Iraq to pay all the money. Aren't there two rich men around?Anyway, after mass production, they will also order, so just pay in advance.

Seeing the end, Qu Sai was stunned, AIP submarine?This is a nuclear submarine of a poor country!The Eye of Ericsson?Isn't this the balance beam pre-alarm machine?Remember these things were finally put into practical use after the 90s, but now, the progress of the Swedes is so fast?

The funding gap in Iraq is getting bigger and bigger!

Chapter 7 New Project of Ousheng Company

"This time, convening all engineers to hold this meeting will be a major event in the development of our Ousheng company in the next 30 years." Sarah sat in the company's large conference room in formal attire and addressed more than 20 senior engineers of the company. Said.

In the past few years, Ousheng Electronics Co., Ltd. has developed at an incredible speed. It has expanded from a small British electronics company to a giant in the world's electronics field.It used to be insolvent, but now it is changing with each passing day, like the sun is rising.This is inseparable from the unremitting efforts and keen strategic vision of the company's president Sarah.

No one would underestimate Sarah, the delicate princess from the Middle East.She is completely at the helm of the high-end electronics field, always with the highest vision.Starting from a small Walkman project, he earned his first pot of gold.Afterwards, the mobile phone developed with great efforts has been popularized throughout Europe. This project has allowed Ousheng Electronics to obtain huge profits.Ousheng's stock has risen a hundred times in just a few years!This is an absolute strong woman!As a result, countless celebrities, gentlemen and aristocrats began to have her idea.However, she never captured any of her favor.

In today's economic downturn in Europe, only Ousheng Electronics is still developing at an aggressive speed.Everyone is proud to be employed by this company.Today is a special day for the company, because a new main project of the company is about to start.It is not an exaggeration to say that it will determine the company's development in the next 30 years.

The engineers all concentrated their attention on listening to the president's serious but distinctly feminine and gentle words, no one dared to pant loudly.Even if they have led their own team to do several projects, they absolutely dare not mention the word job-hopping.Because now there is no company that can compare with Ousheng Electronics.

"We are going into the personal computer business." Sarah looked at the people around her, and she was very satisfied with the expressions of these people, and she said these words.

personal computer!Everyone was taken aback.

The first personal computer, born in 1971, was designed by John Blankenbacker using standard medium-scale and small-scale integrated circuits, Kenbak-1, with a storage capacity of 256 bytes.But only 1 of the Kenbak-40 were sold.Another early PC was the Datapoint 2200, which also went on sale in 1971. (Of course, you can also say that the first personal computer is our abacus.) Subsequently, two manufacturers, Apple and IBM, gradually emerged, occupying almost the entire market for personal computers.

Seven years later, the Apple II personal computer launched by Apple was equipped with a 1MHz CPU, 4KB of memory, two 2-inch floppy drives, a color display and a built-in keyboard.This computer has occupied the No.5.25 position in the personal computer sales list for 5 consecutive years.It wasn't until 1 that IBM launched the IBM1981, which used a 5150MHz CPU such as Intel 8088, 4.77KB of memory, one or two 16-inch floppy drives and an advanced color display.Use Microsoft MS-DOScāo operating system.

In the middle, a dark horse came out. In Canada, Commodore International, founded by Tramiel, launched a low-cost Commodore64 computer. Although it is an 8-bit computer, it has occupied a large market because of its low price. share.

Designing a new personal computer is a very challenging job!

This decision was not made by Qusay, but an important decision made by Sarah after careful study of the development of global electronic technology. When he consulted Qusay, he was in Qusay, Jordan. , worried about the lack of funds, but heard Sarah's decision.

At that time, Qusay felt that if Sarah was by his side, he really wanted to hug this woman immediately, and then, he would spin three times in the sky and kiss three times, even though Sarah was not a very beautiful woman , is an old and ugly old woman, and Qusay will do the same, because Sarah's decision is very wise.

Qusay originally wanted to transfer part of the funds from Ousheng Electronics Company for emergency. The mobile phone technology of Ousheng Electronics Company has made a lot of profits. According to Qusay's own shares, he can now draw hundreds of millions of dollars in dividends it is also fine.

However, Qu Sai didn't move, he immediately made a decision: let Ousheng Electronics Company devote all its energy to the research and development of this product.

Because, what Qusay needs is not for Sarah's company to buy CPU from Intel and assemble it by herself. What Qusay needs is that Ousheng Electronics can design various electronic components including CPU by itself.

Now, Intel Corporation has become a giant in the chip industry, and Zilog Corporation and Motorola Corporation have become Intel Corporation's strong competitors with their own chip products that are not inferior or even slightly higher. The blue giant IBM is secretly researching its own technology. AMD has also begun to get involved in the field of CPU manufacturing. Now, it is the time when this huge application of personal computers begins.

If you want to earn a large amount of profits in the future, you need to master the complete core technology. Although in later generations, only Intel and AMD have occupied the market for personal computer processors, but that is the final competition to kill the rest of the manufacturers. As a result, now, due to Qusay's time travel, the world is slowly changing. Why can't a product with core technology such as CPU that has never been seen in the history of later generations appear?

Although Qusay's application on computers is more limited to various games of later generations, Qusay still knows that in CPUs, the X86 architecture is the basic structure that supports later CPUs, and 32-bit processors are popular for dozens of years. In 80286, therefore, Qusay gave Sarah a more specific direction: After thoroughly studying the principle of Intel's 32 processor, he improved it and designed a [-]-bit processor. This product should be divided into low-end and Two high-end versions occupy different markets.At the same time, Qusay pointed out a more important direction based on his own experience: the Internet!

Nowadays, personal computers are mostly used for learning and games, but few people think that they can use that network cable to communicate with the whole world. Even IBM and Apple have not accurately realized this. important xìng.

Therefore, the far-sighted strategy put forward by Qusay made Ousheng Electronics, which was originally engaged in the mobile phone network, stand at the highest point of an application of personal computers in the future.

Ousheng Electronics Co., Ltd. got involved in the personal computer business and helped Qu Sai solve another problem. These civilian products can be transformed into military use at any time. The wars of later generations have highlighted the importance of electronic technology. Now, the Red Bird cruise in Iraq Missiles still use Intel chips as the brains for data processing. Although hackers are still in their infancy, it is very dangerous for future generations to use electronic equipment that is not produced by themselves.

"If we import CPUs from Intel, we can complete the development of our first personal computer within half a year," said an engineer.

"We don't import CPUs from Intel, we need to develop and develop all our hardware." Sarah said: "The products we develop need to be based on X86 architecture, need to be 32-bit processors, and the main frequency must reach at least 10 megabytes. We need to break into the PC market, and at the same time, our product, do it better than others."

Hearing the president's words, all the technicians lowered their heads. They were not convinced by Sarah, but lacked confidence in their abilities.

Now, all processors are still 16-bit, and Intel's 80386 is 32-bit, but that will be released next year. The president said, it's very simple, they really develop Only those who know how many technical problems there are!

However, none of them can say that, does that mean that they are incapable?

"There are many technical problems here, so we can start by researching Intel's 80286 processor, learn their design ideas, and then, on this basis, develop our own products." Sarah said.

"This is copyright infringement." An engineer couldn't help but say.

"If we completely follow their design, it is indeed an infringement, but we are developing our own new CPU based on theirs. How can this be called an infringement?" Sarah said.Even the Soviet Union is copying Intel's CPU intact, and its own side borrows technology. How can this be called infringement?Sarah didn't have so many scruples.

"President, in our UK, there is a company that is said to be developing processors, but they are almost bankrupt now. If we really want to enter the market of personal computers and processors, then we might as well acquire this company. With our company's strong financial and technical strength, we can solve many of our problems." A senior engineer who sat at the end of the table and came in recently said. ?Is there such a company in the UK?Why don't you know?Sarah opened her eyes wide and asked the engineer, "What's the name of this company?" There was nowhere to find it, and it took no effort to find it!

Chapter 7 and Four

When Bill Gates was creating Microsoft in America and Steve Jobs was creating Apple, Europe was a complete blank slate.

In order to popularize education, the BBC filmed a documentary: Powerful Microprocessing, which introduced the advent of the computer age to TV audiences.Later, the BBC decided to sell an affordable domestic device to inspired enthusiasts.Cambridge's Acorn Computer won the contract to manufacture the BBC Micro, a British version of the Apple II.In the history of later generations, this computer has achieved sales of 150 million units. Under the flicker of the BBC and the fresh feeling of the public, this BBC Micro has achieved unexpected success.Later, the company developed into the ARM company that attracted worldwide attention and achieved great success in mobile electronic products.

However, history has played a big joke for the British. The failure of the British in the Falklands War and the continuous downturn of the Western economy due to the Middle East issue have left the British people with no extra funds for such maximum use. A non-utility machine for them to play games.

In March 1978, Hauser and Sinclair engineers Chris Curry and Andy Hopper founded Acorn together. Hauser was born in Vienna, Austria, and earned a Ph.D. in physics at the Cavendish Institute of Cambridge University. He is a famous physicist, while Andy Hopper is a professor at Cambridge University and the director of the Institute of Computer Science.

Because the company could not continue to operate, Hauser and Curry did not succeed. They sold the company's shares to BBC Corporation. At this time, the only veteran, Andy Hopper, decided to adapt to the current trend of technological development in order to maintain the company, and the development performance can be better. The processor, that is, the processor of the RISC structure.This processor has fewer transistors, consumes less power, and is easy to program.

It's just that the current Acorn company simply doesn't have enough R&D personnel and expenses to complete this 32-bit microprocessor.Its co-designer, Professor Steve Furber, has now moved to Ousheng Electronics, put forward his own statement, and told the president that in the UK, there are also professional CPU designers!

Sarah didn't pay attention to this small company with less than 30 people. Now, after one of her engineers, Professor Steve Furber, said this, she immediately said: "Then we will buy this company." Come and develop our own products, our deadline is one year, we must come up with what I need."

"Yes." The rest of the engineers replied.

Although Sarah has devoted herself to electronic engineering, Sarah is a layman in the end. Qu Sai asked for the X86 architecture. The company she acquired is specialized in the development of RISC architecture. However, at this time, Ousheng Electronics Company has Sufficient funds and technical personnel, as a result, a year later, they developed two products simultaneously, one is the X32 architecture CPU of the mainstream 86-bit system used in desktop computers, and the other is the ARM chip used in embedded systems. In addition to being used in the mobile network terminal mobile phone of Ousheng Electronics, it is also used in various guided weapons in Iraq. For example, it replaced Intel's 80286 chip and was used in Iraq's own Red Bird cruise missile.

After the meeting, Sarah took off her glamor and returned to her villa.

The steaming hot water rushed on her body, but Sarah felt a little lonely. Does that guy in the Middle East know that everything she did was for him?

From an ordinary Saudi princess to the CEO of a large multinational company in the international electronics field, Sarah is only because of that person.

She also knew that the Middle East at this time was on the precarious land, carefully steering the rudder, and it was that outstanding man who opened a new page in the Middle East!

... "Prime Minister, the American guest, McFarlane is here again." A secretary said.

"Just say I'm not free." Perez said without raising his head, but after thinking about it, he still said, "Please come in."

McFarlane walked in with his tired thighs lifted. He had just lobbied the Minister of Defense and was coming to meet the Prime Minister of Israel again. His expression was a little bad.The recent developments were beyond his expectation. Although he was not discouraged, he was still working hard. Being a peace guard was not so easy.

"Mr. Prime Minister." McFarlane saw Perez and said: "Now, the conflict between Israel and the Arabs has caused heavy casualties and property losses on both sides. Your side is just a loss of tourism. It is already a very large number. This is a tragedy that happened on the land of the Middle East. We should resolve the dispute peacefully through negotiations. This is our final solution. Violence and war will not solve the problem. It will only deepen the hatred between each other."

McFarlane has not given up completely, and is still doing his best to lobby the high-level officials of both parties, hoping to reach a certain level of compromise. Now, almost all of the demands put forward by the two parties are unacceptable to the other party.

"Peace?" Perez said: "We Jews are very peace-loving. We live here normally. We just want to protect our country. However, from the second day of our founding, we suffered from the surrounding The barbaric invasion of the Arab countries, and peace with the group of people who cover their faces with turbans all day long? This time, we had no fault at all, but we were brutally attacked by the surrounding Arab countries, especially Iraq, our loss It’s a big deal, but how about we negotiate with those people on the opposite side? We also need to compensate them for their war losses? If you were me, what would you do?”

You are not at fault?If you hadn't conducted underground nuclear tests quietly, how could there have been a series of follow-up problems!McFarland thought in his heart, but he must not say it out loud, because he didn't come to quarrel, he came to talk about reconciliation.
