Blooming America

in history.

In 1997, the world's first read head based on the giant magnetoresistance effect came out. It is with the help of the giant magnetoresistance effect that people can create such a sensitive magnetic head that can clearly read weak magnetic signals and convert them into clear current changes. The emergence of new magnetic heads has triggered the revolution of "large capacity, 1 miniaturization" of hard disks. Nowadays, hard drives equipped in various digital electronic products such as note music players basically use the giant magnetoresistance effect, and this technology has become a new standard.

And now, in the Thunder Lab, after researchers discovered the giant magnetoresistance phenomenon, they started research and development non-stop, and the new technology that had just been researched was immediately ready to develop products.

Although the hard disk technology is authorized by IBM, the high cost and low capacity of current hard disks are not suitable for large-scale popularization. Although the cloud system is easy to use, with the gradual improvement of computer performance, there are still people With the increasing requirements for the confidentiality of personal information, the cloud system will gradually evolve from a computer system to a multimedia system. It is better to use a personal computer for the so-called games, entertainment and office.

Now is not a time for technology retention, but a time for accelerated development. At such a time, the most important thing to do is to accelerate the development of technology.

Non-stop, non-stop, time waits for no one. There is no need to talk about technical reserves at this time. There is no time for three to five years. It is very difficult for outside technology to catch up with the current Catherine's footsteps.

The entire INTEL company, the entire Thunder Lab, and the Emma Lab are now like pioneers in the forefront. They are dragging the entire industry chain and the world, and they are awkwardly accelerating on the track of history. These people do not know themselves, but history is changed because of them.

Although Catherine is a businessman, as far as Catherine’s emotions are concerned, she hopes that the Internet will become more popular.

And if it can be popularized, the benefits will only get bigger and bigger in the future. After all, this is also beneficial to oneself.

The news of Thunder Lab was undoubtedly a surprise for Catherine.

Although Catherine did not know that giant magnetoresistance would win the Nobel Prize in the future, Catherine knew exactly how extensive the application of giant magnetoresistance was.

One before Catherine came to this era, at the time of the century, except for the solid-state hard drive S. In addition, the traditional mechanical hard disk is the giant magnetoresistance technology used.

"It looks like it should be possible to start making digital videos now."

The problem with the decoding chip is nothing, the most important thing is the capacity of the movie.

Just relying on the poor little hard drive of IBM now, let alone movies, I am afraid that even high-compression songs like MWV can't be played much.

Burning read-only M is also not suitable for this situation.

With large-capacity, low-cost hard drives, the situation is different.

However, Catherine's [excitement] didn't last long, and another thing that followed immediately shifted Catherine's realization.

2. "Time" wants to interview me? "

When Catherine saw the letter, she didn't know how she felt.

Catherine was in Time magazine a long time ago. It seems that at that time, a strange and cheating "Magic Girl" nickname was hung on Catherine's head. Of course, this nickname has now become "Magic Princess... …"

"Since it's Time Magazine, let's arrange a time."

Catherine explained to Elsa like this.

Although Catherine told Elsa to stop all activities and meetings, since the other party is "Time", then we must meet up anyway, right?

"How about setting it for next Monday?" Elsa asked.

"Well, you can."

Catherine picked up the letter again and read it.

"Should I complain about Person of the Year?" Catherine looked at the letter, still shaking her head.

Catherine didn’t know who was the Person of the Year in Time magazine in 1970, but it’s clear that

He had already squeezed out that poor child's place.

1. In fact, the person of the year in 1970 should have belonged to Willy Brandt. This person was the mayor of Berlin in West Germany. Of course, the mayor of Berlin can't do much now.

Because Catherine's current influence far exceeds that of the chaotic Europe.

The Atlantic submarine cable and the Pacific submarine cable, which are now under construction, can be said to be things that can change the world. With this thing, Catherine's influence on the entire world has begun to become huge.

"But I don't know how the Internet in the Soviet Union is."

Katherine suddenly thought of another existence that caused her headache.

The Internet also exists in the Soviet Union, but it is not something Catherine controls. It makes Catherine feel quite a headache. Fortunately, the Soviets don't seem to be planning to use such a network for commercial operations, so they will not have much influence on their future layout for the time being.

"By the way, Kate, and this." Elsa handed another document to Catherine.

"What is this again?"

Catherine opened the document curiously.

"This is Mr. Soros's analysis of some entrepreneurial funds, as well as some summary reports."

"Oh."

Although there is a venture fund, Catherine's performance is very indifferent. The existence of such a venture fund was established for its own new power source at the very beginning, but facts have proved that such a existence has so far been , Haven't surprised myself yet.

Catherine couldn't help but wonder if her thoughts were wrong. So far, Catherine hasn't been surprised at all...

"It looks like the development is pretty good." Although Catherine has always felt very dissatisfied, the venture fund did not actually lose money, and even made money.

Soros invested in a number of emerging solar industries.

In the previous days, people began to notice that the environment is closely related to their own lives, and people’s environmental awareness has gradually awakened. These solar energy industries that have begun to go on the market have also become the darlings of the market. It is precisely because of this. The venture fund led by Soros has such a high profit.

Although Catherine really wants to complain, the pollution caused by the production of these solar panels is already much more serious than the so-called thermal power.

Well, people don't care about the facts behind this, but at least it looks comfortable on the surface, that's enough.

"Solar energy is a clean and renewable new energy source, which is more and more popular among people. It has a wide range of functions in people's life and work. One of them is to convert solar energy into electric energy. Solar cells use solar energy to work. The working principle of a solar thermal power station is to use the concentrated sunlight to boil water and turn it into water vapor, which is then used to generate electricity."

The above statement is not bad, Soros also seems to want Catherine to like this solar power generation.

But unfortunately, Catherine is not interested in this energy for the time being. If she really wants to engage in new energy, Catherine’s favorite is bō wave power generation or geothermal power generation. If it is not possible, wind power generation is good. Unless she is evacuating Hara, Catherine will never consider solar energy.

At this time, Catherine was also thinking.

Although the theme of environmental protection was gradually put forward in the 1970s, solar energy was actually put forward much earlier.

The earliest application of solar power generation was in the early 20th century.

In the 20 years since the end of the Second World War, some visionaries have noticed that oil and natural gas resources are rapidly declining, and called on people to pay attention to this issue, which has gradually promoted the recovery and development of solar energy research, and The establishment of solar energy academic organizations, holding academic exchanges and exhibitions, once again rising the upsurge of solar energy research.

In 1945, Bell Labs in the United States developed a practical silicon solar cell, which can be said to be the ancestor of a series of solar power generation later.

And Catherine also knew that regardless of the rapid development of solar energy, in fact, if the oil crisis broke out, the prospects of solar energy would be better~ But the development and utilization of solar energy that rose in the 1970s began to ebb in the late 1980s and gradually entered a trough. . Many countries in the world have drastically reduced solar energy research funding one after another, of which the United States is the most prominent.

The main reasons for this phenomenon are: the world oil prices have fallen sharply, while the prices of solar products remain high and lack of competitiveness: there has been no major breakthrough in solar technology, and the goals of improving efficiency and reducing costs have not been achieved, which has shaken some people. Confidence in the development and utilization of solar energy: The rapid development of nuclear power has played a certain role in restraining the development of solar energy.

It was impossible for the price of oil to rise at the end of the 1980s, because that was a method used by the Western world to kill the Soviet Union. At that time, the Soviet Union’s oil export was already one of their pillar industries~www.wuxiaspot.com~This and Citing Century’s energy exporter Russia is the same.

As for the reason why Russia can develop, although there are also leaders, the rise in oil prices is one of the most important reasons why Russia has emerged from the quagmire.

"The key to everything is still oil."

Catherine concluded.

"What is the relationship between solar energy and oil?"

"It matters a lot. If the price of oil stays at this low level, solar energy will not be able to develop. Maybe I can speculate in solar stocks?"

Catherine immediately thought of the world after the oil crisis.

But Catherine immediately stopped her dangerous method.

She is not a speculator, her vision is the most important thing. This kind of thing is left to Soros to do well, when that time, Catherine's money will still have to be used to invest in her own company. ! .
