Siheyuan: Grassroots Counterattack

Elder Tang smiled and nodded at Dean Zhang, "Old Zhang, you are trying to divert the conflict."

Dean Zhang also laughed. Li Tianyi looked at the two old men and smiled as well. "Dean, should we make two or just one?"

Dean Zhang thought for a moment and said, "Let's make one first. Put the rest of the stuff in the safe in your office. Don't tell anyone about this. Just treat those parts as spare parts."

Elder Tang and Li Tianyi both nodded. "Dean, I will go and notify the team members to order another computer body part."

Dean Zhang nodded, and Li Tianyi walked out of the office. Elder Tang looked at Dean Zhang, "Old Zhang, has the time for the inspection been confirmed?"

Dean Zhang shook his head. "Not yet. They told us to wait for further notice."

"If the new computer is successfully developed, is it necessary to continue the project we are currently working on?"

Dean Zhang pondered for a long time before he slowly said, "Let's proceed. As for whether to stop, I will ask my superiors."

Old Tang nodded helplessly. Once Li Tianyi's computer was successful, the projects that these old guys were researching now would be insignificant. Now the news hasn't spread out yet. Who knows what weird things those old guys will say when they get to know about it?

Thinking of this, Mr. Tang got a headache.

Li Tianyi once again called the team members together, first motivated everyone, and also revealed that the Academy of Sciences would give out rewards later. Then he re-distributed the drawings that had been collected before, and arranged for people to order parts for a computer body again.

The technicians who had already done the work once immediately took the drawings and went to the Academy of Sciences.

The busy day passed quickly and Li Tianyi returned home exhausted. The relaxed atmosphere at home allowed Li Tianyi to relax his tense nerves after a day of work.

Xiaoxue looked at Li Tianyi with heartache, her face full of tiredness that could not be concealed. She grabbed An An and Ha Dou Dou who were about to go find their father, and whispered to them the reason, asking them not to disturb their father.

After dinner, Li Tianyi went to bed early. After Xiaoxue coaxed the child to sleep, she gently stroked her husband who had lost a lot of weight. Although she wanted to persuade Li Tianyi not to make himself so tired, Xiaoxue couldn't say anything because she couldn't stop her husband from contributing to the country.

After a night's rest, Li Tianyi regained his spirit. He kissed his sleeping wife and then tiptoed out of the house.

Just after doing a set of stretching exercises, Li's mother came to cook. Seeing that Li Tianyi had already gotten up, Li's mother immediately stepped forward to show concern. Li Tianyi was in a bad condition last night, and everyone could see it, so no one disturbed Li Tianyi last night. Only after seeing Li Tianyi recover today did Li's mother dare to step forward.

"Tianyi, what happened to you yesterday?" Li's mother's face was full of worry, fearing that something might have happened to her eldest son.

"Mom, it's okay. I was just tired. After a night's rest, I feel better now." Li Tianyi said as he went to the kitchen with his mother.

In the kitchen, Li Tianyi helped his mother with the kitchen work while telling her about his promotion. Li's mother didn't understand anything about this, but she was very happy that her son was going to be promoted.

After breakfast, Li Tianyi came to the Academy of Sciences and started assembling the second set of integrated circuits in the office, while the members of his team went to various factories to customize computer parts.

The peaceful day passed quickly and no one came to disturb Li Tianyi. During lunch, he met Mr. Tang. He chatted with him briefly and then went to get his lunch.

Three days passed, and although the second computer was not yet completed, some parts had been sent back, and the engineers were busy rechecking the parts.

Li Tianyi had been busy with circuits. Just when he was extremely busy, Mr. Tang informed him that higher authorities would come to inspect the Academy of Sciences tomorrow and asked him to prepare.

Li Tianyi naturally understood what Mr. Tang meant, so he asked for instructions from Mr. Tang and went to the laboratory. He wanted to check whether the computer was running normally today to make sure nothing went wrong when he came to check tomorrow.

Mr. Tang also meant this, so he went to the laboratory with Li Tianyi. After starting the computer, Li Tianyi experimented with several sets of data, and then designed some system functions. The most important of them was the simulation function. You could input some data, and the computer would show what you needed to simulate.

At first, Mr. Tang didn't understand the function of this thing, and Li Tianyi didn't explain it in detail. He stared at this large computer, but he was thinking in his mind how to make a small and portable computer.

As soon as this idea came into his mind, Li Tianyi immediately set it as the next research goal.

Old Tang glanced at Li Tianyi, who looked thoughtful, and did not disturb him. Old Tang knew that Li Tianyi had a new idea.

When Li Tianyi came back to his senses, Elder Tang asked, "Xiao Li, what were you thinking about just now? Why were you so absorbed in it?"

"Mr. Tang, I'm thinking, after this project, what my next research project will be?" Li Tianyi told the truth.

"Oh? Do you have any ideas for a new project?" Mr. Tang asked curiously.

Li Tian nodded. "Yes, my next project is to miniaturize computers. I want to make a computer that is easy to carry and can even be installed at home."

"This?" Mr. Tang fell silent for a moment. When Mr. Tang was abroad, his professor had also mentioned this topic, but it has not been realized until now. Today, Li Tianyi brought up this matter again. For some reason, Mr. Tang believed that Li Tianyi might really be able to achieve it.

The computer was running well at this time. Li Tianyi turned off the computer and left the laboratory with Mr. Tang.

The next morning, Li Tianyi arrived at the Academy of Sciences early and stood behind Mr. Tang, waiting for his superiors to arrive with the dean and other academicians.

Around nine o'clock, several cars drove slowly in. When the cars stopped, a group of soldiers got out of the cars and spread out in all directions. Then an old man got out of a Red Flag car. He was a powerful director of the General Office. Dean Zhang immediately stepped forward and shook hands with the old man, "Welcome to the leader for guidance."

"Xiao Zhang, don't bother with this, let's go in and take a look."

"Okay, Director Li, please follow me." Dean Zhang quickly led Director Li and others into the Academy of Sciences.

Everyone came to the laboratory. Director Li stepped forward to look at the computer. He couldn't tell anything from the appearance, so he looked at Dean Zhang and said, "Xiao Zhang, is this the new computer?"

"Yes, sir. This is an integrated circuit computer with a computing power of one million times per second."

"So fast?" Director Li was shocked, and then asked, "Who is the developer of the computer?"
