Chapter 104 (2/2)
Bao Zixuan: ”you've worked hard. The expansion of our factory in Xiangjiang will be completed soon. Can we achieve the maximum production capacity and release your computer company plays a very important role in it. In my opinion, all products may be eliminated in a few decades, but there is no problem with computers in use for hundreds of years, but their performance is more advanced and the price is cheaper than now. ”
Hashimoto: ”we can produce a prototype in June. If the test goes well, we can produce it in the factory in September.”
Baozixuan also knows whether it is right to develop a laptop seven years in advance, which violates the natural development law of science and technology; But there's no way. It's very simple to study ordinary personal computers, but that will break the blood with apple in the market.
If you develop a data workstation, you will rob IBM of its job. Although giant blue is now facing an antitrust investigation, it is not affordable for the black cloud to start a fire.
Bao Zixuan: ”have you calculated the weight and size of the prototype, what is the battery life capacity, and whether it can meet the portable standard.”
Hashimoto: ”due to the use of a large number of titanium alloy materials, the weight of the prototype is about 2.5 ~ 2.8kg, with a size width of 40cm, a height of 25cm and a thickness of 3.5cm. Using the most advanced battery technology of Philips and our battery tuning technology in software, the normal point taking time is 2.5 hours. If it is used all the time, the charging time can be 1.3 hours. But the cost of each battery is $80. ”
Bao Zixuan: ”do you have any technical problems that need to be solved and discussed urgently?”
The hardware engineer said: ”boss, our current chip performance is very unstable and often crashes, but this is not only determined by the performance of the chip itself, but also because we do not have a good cooling system, so that the chip will heat up after reaching the peak during the test process. Due to the high temperature generated by the overheating of the chip, the main board, hard disk and memory will overheat, and then the computer will crash, and the system will collapse. ”
”This is a problem that must be solved. Otherwise, our portable computers can only work normally for no more than 20 minutes each time. It will greatly reduce the use effect of customers. ”
Hearing this, baozixuan finally thought of a problem, how to forget the exhaust refrigeration system. So he picked up the pen and paper in his hand and began to draw. After a while, he drew an exhaust fan under the host of the portable computer.
Bao Zixuan took the paper and said, ”we can add a brushless motor exhaust system here, which can alleviate the impact of the high temperature generated by the chip on the computer. Then replace the lower part of the computer, that is, the host part, with a hollow structure, so that the hot gas can be discharged. ”
From 7 p.m. to 2:30 a.m., several engineers of heiyun computer company continuously improved the design scheme under the suggestion of baozixuan, and all the unreasonable designs in the early stage were overturned.
Finally, when the newly designed scheme was shown in the form of drawings, all engineers admired the new design scheme.
The products made according to the current drawings are better than the original version in terms of appearance, performance and rationality. The boss's fame at MIT really didn't come in vain. He made it by himself.
They have been discussing for nearly three months and have just decided on the component performance of the product. That is, the appearance and overall combination have not met the ideal requirements.
The thought of science and engineering talents is relatively simple. Everyone will believe who has strong ability. And willing to take him as the core. Baozixuan now wants to keep all the high-end talents here in heiyun group and even take them to Xiangjiang if possible.
