"Old Xu, why is it so mysterious that you come to me to see it in person?"
In a Materials Research Institute subordinate to the Aerospace Academy, Liu Ningyuan, the deputy chief engineer engaged in composite materials research, was dealing with some work matters. Xu Qigong suddenly visited Materials Research Institute and asked him to be taken alone to the research and development room of the institute. His behavior was very mysterious and he was asked to be the only one present, and everyone else had to leave temporarily.
Liu Ningyuan couldn't help but be very curious, but still followed Xu Qigong's instructions.
"I'm here to do something private with you. Of course, the less people know about it, the better."
Xu Qigong smiled, then handed him a USB flash drive and said, "This is a Optical Thin Film Design Software program that I asked for from a company. You can install it now and try it out."
"Optical Thin Film Design Software?"
Liu Ningyuan was startled, and while reaching out to take the USB flash drive, he said, "You are not looking for the design software from tc Company from Eagle Country, are you?"
As soon as these words came out, it was Xu Qigong's turn to be stunned. "What kind of company is Eagle Country? tc, is there such a company?"
Liu Ningyuan glanced at him in surprise and asked with a smile, "I said, Lao Xu, don't tell me that you don't know this company. It is No. 1 in the field of optical software design."
"Damn, do I have to know you?"
Xu Qigong blushed, exporting the essence of Chinese culture.
Liu Ningyuan laughed loudly and said, "It turns out there is something you don't know, Old Xu. I thought that as the deputy chief engineer of the country Deep Space Telescope, you knew everything. Let me tell you, this tc Company is very awesome. The tcalc software he developed is the mainstream Optical Thin Film Design Software in various countries around the world. Back then, when we wanted to import this software, we were so arrogant that we just wouldn't sell it."
Xu Qigong asked, "Then what software are you using now?"
Materials Research Institute also studies materials such as optical films. In order not to get stuck, the necessary software must be available, otherwise it will not keep up with the times.
Today's research is no better than before, and you can do calculations by hand and draw by hand.
It's not that you can't do it by hand calculation and drawing, but the efficiency is too slow. Others have completed the verification of n versions, but you haven't started the verification of one version yet. How can this compare?
The words left by our ancestors are wise sayings, sharpening the knife will not waste time chopping wood!
Xu Qigong has never paid attention to this area before, or in other words, all his energy has been given to the field he is studying, and he does not know much about other fields.
There are too many subdivided categories, so Xu Qigong will only take the initiative to learn some auxiliary majors and knowledge that must be used, otherwise it is just a waste of time.
"It is a software that we specially developed with our brother department. After using it till now, we have accumulated some experience and technology, and it can barely meet the current research needs."
Liu Ningyuan said modestly, but the proud look on his face was clearly visible.
Xu Qigong naturally sees it clearly and can understand it. After all, he can develop a system on his own under the conditions of blockade and meet the current research needs. He is indeed proud of it.
"It seems that this trip was in vain. If I had known earlier, I might as well have taken the initiative to find Old Liu and ask him to donate this software to Feiyang for use. It not only helps support the development of domestic enterprises, but also gives Feiyang a favor."
Xu Qigong couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Most of the domestic software is from abroad, and the internal software review of institutions such as research institutes, which are not very confidential, is not very strict, so he has always thought that most of the software at Liu Ningyuan is also from abroad. Just like many domestic research institutions, even those involving military technology, some of their internal core software are from foreign countries. It was not until the other party jumped out and said that you are developing too fast and I will not allow you to use my software, that I chose to deactivate it.
Looking at it now, it's not that you can use foreign software because the confidentiality level is not high, it's a question of whether foreign countries can let you use it.
While talking, the software in the USB disk was copied to the computer in the research institute by Liu Ningyuan.
After unzipping and installing, it only took half an hour to complete the process.
"Hey, this software is actually in Chinese mode throughout?"
What surprised Liu Ningyuan was that during the installation process of the software named "Optical Thin Film Design", all Chinese characters were displayed without any English. Only the words c/d disk were displayed in the installation directory.
"It's true."
Xu Qigong suddenly became a little curious.
After all installations are completed and the "I want to try" option is selected, the software interface will be opened.
The moment they saw the interface, the two of them were surprised again, and even stayed stunned for a while.
What appeared in front of their eyes was an interface entirely in Chinese fonts, without a single English letter. The interface was very simple and comfortable, and each command was placed with a sense of design. At first glance, it looked like the thinking of an engineer.
"Good guy, this is completely Chinese!"
Liu Ningyuan couldn't help but praise.
Just click on a command and a dialog box will pop up, all of which will display Chinese.
Liu Ningyuan tried typing any English letters on the keyboard and pressed confirmation, but the result showed that the command could not be recognized, please re-enter.
After several times in a row, Liu Ningyuan finally went back and opened a "Command Collection" text document in the folder after decompressing the compressed package.
"For a native Chinese user, this is almost a fool-like software. It depends on how you use your ingenuity. In the software, for any function you want to achieve, you can directly enter Chinese to express it, or customize the shortcut key commands you need. All of the above, thank you!"
In the text document, there were not a bunch of command keys as he expected, only two sentences with dozens of words.
Liu Ningyuan immediately felt a little unbelievable. He turned around and asked Xu Qigong: "Old Xu, where did this software come from? Are you trying to defy heaven and make Chinese commands?"
He was a little dubious. Chinese commands have a very broad meaning. Can the computer recognize them?
Xu Qigong felt the same as him. When he heard him ask, he subconsciously said, "You try it first. I have never used this software before, and this is my first time."
"Okay, let me try."
Liu Ningyuan was skeptical and started typing Chinese words into the command box of the software. He entered the word "prism".
Snap!
As the confirmation key is pressed, the main interface immediately displays a whole prism pattern, and a "Please enter the height, angle, width, etc. prompt" appears in the dialog box.
Liu Ningyuan was surprised and delighted. "Good guy, there really is one, and it's so smart!"
Prism is a structure of light-concentrating optical materials. The surface of the material is made into a dense prism structure, allowing light to continuously refract, reflect, scatter, etc. between prisms, and finally emit vertically from the surface to achieve maximum utilization of light, thereby completing the light-gathering function.
Liu Ningyuan I just tried it out, but I didn't expect it to work so well. Not only was this Chinese command recognized by the computer, it displayed the prism structure pattern, and it also intelligently gave a reminder of the prism's structural parameters.
Just this time, Liu Ningyuan felt conquered.
"Old Xu, tell me quickly, who is your friend?"
Liu Ningyuan suddenly turned his head and looked at Xu Qigong, his eyes gleaming, which shocked Xu Qigong.
