Blooming America
Chapter 107: Project Quality Supervision and Management Office
"Red Alert" was released simultaneously in Europe and America.
Catherine’s $70 million was the worst plan, but the market’s response was obviously better than expected.
Because of the advent of TV, nowadays, many people like to sit at home and watch TV, and fewer and fewer people go out to watch movies.
But Catherine's "Red Alert", using TV alone, it is difficult to show that kind of magical effect.
There are very few movies with extreme special effects like Catherine in the top-selling series now, so people feel different about movie effects and other things.
Catherine’s "Red Alert" tells people what the real special effects are. This dazzling effect is definitely a treat.
Even for that wonderful effect, many people are still willing to pay for Catherine's "Red Alert".
The time has come to February, and the attendance rate of "Red Alert" is still high. The total credit has reached 70 million US dollars, and the screening is still going on.
Movies broadcast in the United States. The box office share is more inclined to the producer. More than 80% of the box office in the first week of the show was attributed to the producer. Then decrease the share ratio every week. In the end, the producers get 30%, and the rest are distributors and theater chains.
Although I don’t have as much money as before, but the film will probably be released for a while.
Especially "Red Alert" also has a cold war background stunt, which casts a layer of mystery on this movie.
Although the total income is very high, the cost of Catherine is also very high. Even if it can be divided into 100 million US dollars in the end, Catherine may only earn tens of millions. Although it is doubled, compared with the electronics industry, the film earns too much. not enough.
Catherine always felt that without a stable income guarantee, it would be difficult for movies to become her own pillar industry.
Her main goal is still in the electronics industry.
Especially after getting the attention of the Pentagon.
During this period, Catherine has been busy working on the operating system.
The kernel of the Phoenix operating system is entirely made by Catherine herself. Although it is similar to the future DOS, Catherine is very careful.
In the future, Microsoft will develop various vulnerability patches for the operating system, although it is its strategy to release patches without listening, increasing the user stickiness of genuine users.
But that was the winner after Microsoft almost monopolized.
But now, what Catherine needs is a perfect product, to make her name, this is the kingly way.
If their products are not rigorous, then the latecomers are determined to develop an operating system, the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves forward, and the waves before the waves die on the beach, then they would be a tragedy.
rigorous, you must be rigorous, so that's it.
For a whole month, Catherine led the research team to write the core of Phoenix, while debugging, trying to find all the loopholes in the system.
Although Catherine used to be a programmer and knew a lot about computers, she hadn’t really tried a programming system. Although this is also a subject, it is really difficult in practice.
However, as far as programmers in this world have no concept of operating systems, Catherine's technology has already been shocked.
And just a month later, Catherine had to temporarily escape from such a complicated job.
Because at this time, the Pentagon established an engineering quality supervision and management office, which is specifically responsible for contact with ARK.
-Yes, the name of this office is "Project Quality Supervision and Management Office".
In fact, the Pentagon did give this office such a name. In fact, the most important thing is to cover people's eyes, not to be unconventional.
To be honest, in fact, Catherine really wanted to call it "amalgam", but it was obvious that the Pentagon was not that painful.
The Pentagon allocated a total of 80 million US dollars to the company for the first time.
Among them, 20 million U.S. dollars is used to develop the military version of Z80. The specific matters are not yet clear, but according to Sanders' understanding, it may be related to the missile's guidance system. After all, although there are now various guidance systems such as television guidance, the US military’s missile hit rate is only a few tenths of a percent. Compared with the 8% of the Gulf War and more precise strikes in the future, this hit rate is really pitiful.
The other 60 million US dollars is used to develop the first phase of the individual soldier terminal. To be precise, it should be the development of the vehicle version.
After all, if the individual soldier system is developed directly, the current technology is not able to do it, but if the vehicle system is developed, it is completely possible.
In the case of a vehicle, both the volume and the power supply conditions are much looser, and the targets that need to be marked are generally relatively large, and the accuracy requirements are not very strict, as long as the approximate location can be determined.
But it seems that the Pentagon still hopes to use the individual version.
For example, when fighting in a street or in a building, the satellite has no way to monitor and the radar is very likely to be limited, but it is very useful for individual soldiers to fumble and scan the terrain.
It's the Cold War. There are a group of generals who came from World War II ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ with a strong sense of war in the Pentagon.
In fact, they are the overwhelming majority who promoted the entire plan.
Phoenix's operating system kernel is more than half written.
At this time, Catherine split the entire software department into two again.
One is responsible for the development of the civilian version of the operating system, while the other is responsible for the development of military equipment...
Of course, things like real-time scanning of maps cannot be realized for the time being. And other equipment is needed in this regard. In this regard, the Pentagon handed over to other companies to complete-Lockheed Martin. Lockheed Martin, the future US military leader, the famous "Skunk Factory", is the core of the other party, but Catherine does not know whether the Skunk Factory has appeared now.
Traditional industry Catherine is still less involved. She is still focusing on optimizing her industry.
Because of the Pentagon's funding, Catherine became much wealthier in an instant.
Although these funds can only be used for special development, this aspect happens to be what Catherine urgently needs.
Z80 is developed simultaneously with the operating system.
The civilian version of Z80 was soon able to be developed, as for the military version, Catherine called it Z81.
Z81 will be more stable and durable than Z80. The military may not need cutting-edge, but stability and durability are necessary. For example, the CPU that was later used on satellites required high temperature and low temperature resistance, but the frequency requirements were not high.
In 1965, for Catherine, it was destined to become a starting point for her career.
