Chapter 424: Military use of mobile phones

In the 21st century, with the development of science and technology, the U.S. military found that they were still somewhat powerless during the ambush. (Net) Then they realized that the root of their problems was not technical. The U.S. military’s weapons and equipment and air support are of first-class standards. The crux of the problem is that soldiers cannot get enough real-time information when performing tasks. These intelligence related to the security of the entire patrol and forward forces may be idle in the rear database. Not get points in time. The patrol and the vanguard are the most vulnerable objects to be attacked by the enemy. Especially in the 21st century when terrorism prevails.

It is not difficult to overcome obstacles in this area. All soldiers need is to extract the part that is useful to them from the massive information provided by satellite images, aerial reconnaissance and ground communications; to do this, they need a way to analyze, transmit and integrate. A device that displays information in a simple and easy-to-understand manner. These functions can be achieved with a smart phone. In addition, another big advantage of the mobile phone is that it is very light and will not increase the burden on soldiers who are already very bloated.

As a result, Apple mobile phones have become popular in the US military, and the ipe has become the standard equipment of the US military.

"This is the personal terminal?"

"To be precise, it is a prototype. This product only has communication functions for the time being, so we call it a ‘mobile phone’."

The thing in front of me, about the size of two bricks, was the cell phone that Catherine said.

Relying on the technology of the laboratory, it is difficult to reduce the problem to the size of "Big Brother", but if you successfully have other people's technology, you may be able to continue to shrink... For example, Motorola or something.

"This product is currently under test, but the call function is already available."

The company has built a base station.

"It would be great if it could be reduced to the size of the palm..."

This mobile phone is rather rudimentary, with only a black box and some buttons, not even a display, so it can only be pressed blindly like a fixed phone. Moreover, the battery can only last for more than half a day, and the longest, that is, a full day of standby is already the limit.

"This thing is really amazing..."

"As long as we have a base station, we can even make calls all over the world, completely unimpeded."

"Only, I can't settle this matter alone..." Walker shook his head regretfully.

"I think Mr. Cooper should tell you about the cell phone. I think he should be coming soon."

Since the other party's interest shifted to the phone, Catherine made a call and asked Cooper to come over immediately.

"Where can this kind of mobile phone be used now?" Walker asked again.

"We have now passed the audits in San Francisco and Los Angeles. In most urban areas of Los Angeles, making phone calls is not a problem."

Although mobile phones that can be marketed have not yet appeared, it is possible to build base stations.

"Really?" Walker seemed to be thinking about something.

"Boom boom boom."

The door was knocked.

"Come in."

"Miss Edson, Mr. Walker..."

Cooper was a little nervous.

"Well, Cooper, you can tell Mr. Walker some specific information about the phone..."

Next, Cooper told Walker some basic principles of the mobile phone, and Walker also asked him a few questions. In this way, more than an hour passed. On the other side, Catherine stopped Cooper again.

"Cooper, what do you think of the use of mobile phones in the military?"

"The application of mobile phones should be wider than that of walkie-talkies. To put it more extreme, mobile phones should be a piece of equipment that should be equipped on every soldier. In this way, it should be helpful for military applications?" Cooper seems to have done this too. "But to say it, the field of mobile phones in the civilian field should be broader, and our products should mainly be able to perform in a relatively stable area..."

Cooper is more concerned about the humanized design of the mobile phone, but since he can promote the mobile phone to the military, he is also willing to slightly expand the coverage area of ​​the mobile phone.

"You can write an analysis report first."

Finally, Catherine beat the opponent down.

"The result seems to be idle again..."

Catherine sat in a boring position, and then picked up an earnings report that was next to her.

"Ah... it's news from the Japanese branch..."

The company's exhibition in Japan has been smooth sailing-of course, this is because of the powerful features of the B game. But in fact this advantage is diminishing, because the Japanese have already developed their own game consoles, and they have a strong copycat ability. If there is a title of "King of Shanzhai" now, the Japanese can definitely afford it.

It’s just that the performance of the game consoles developed by the Japanese is very poor, and the support for games is not as good as that of B. They have no way to develop a machine that is compatible with B games-if they have, their prices will be higher than B. , It's not cost-effective at all.

Therefore, the exhibition in Japan is expected to go smoothly for a long time.

"Don't worry about it over there... Just look at the IB."

Catherine shook her head. In fact, she wanted to go to the China exhibition, but it seemed that this idea was very unrealistic. In fact, Catherine did not want to expand the Chinese market, but the bitter fruit of the Americans' self-inflicted crime can only be swallowed by the United States.

To talk about this, we must start with the Korean War. At that time, North Korea split into North Korea and South Korea. After North Korea invaded South Korea, President Truman immediately ordered the US Seventh Fleet to enter the Taiwan Strait to prevent the Great Six from attacking Taiwan. At the same time, the Americans have strengthened their isolation from the Chinese, and they have been involved in the coalition of many countries, and strengthened the West's stance on the new Chinese government through wars and wars. This is the most fundamental reason that led to China's isolation from the major capitalist powers for a long time.

At that time, China's domestic political situation was still fluctuating, and the attitude towards capital was also between ambiguities. The chairman was an idealist, but on the other hand, he was also a flexible realist. The United States continues to support Taiwan’s Kuomintang regime as the only legal representative of the Chinese people and supports it to occupy a seat in the United Nations. As a result, China was unable to obtain various forms of economic and technical assistance, and had to completely fall back to the Soviet Union-China and the Soviet Union signed the Treaty of Friendship, Alliance and Mutual Assistance in the year.

Of course, this is only one level. The reality is that for China at that time, it is still good to fall to the Soviet Union. China's first five-year plan was aided by the Soviet Union. If the United States changed its attitude towards China at that time, as long as they could provide China with better conditions, perhaps China would fall to the United States. The breakup between China and the Soviet Union in the past few years and the recent growing tension between China and the Soviet Union indicate that all.

"Forget it...it doesn't matter to me."

I was born in 1948 and not in 1894. Even if I think about such a painful problem, there will be no results. The things that happened in the past have also gone.

For things that she cannot change, Catherine has always held a calm attitude. It is a pity that she should plan for the future.

"Maybe I can do something else..."

...

Taking advantage of the weekend holiday time, Gates once again came to Blizzard.

"Metal Slug" has been completed, this is already a great achievement.

Of course, even if the game is completed, it will have to go through a series of deb1g tests before it can be truly made. And if you really want to go public, you must wait until mb1 goes public before it's possible.

The big brick now placed in front of Gates is the prototype of the mb1 game console. Because of the need to put in various components, the machine is very large and heavy. Although there are integrated circuits, the integration level of circuits is not very high now. It is already an advanced technology to achieve this. At least such an mb1 game console is lighter than the Pentium computer on the other side.

"Buzzing..."

After putting the disc down, the machine started to buzz, which was because the disc drive was reading the disc.

"The noise is a bit loud..."

I heard that mb1 is improving the design, otherwise too much noise will affect the feeling of the game.

At this time, the g... logo appeared on the screen.

Before long, the sound of music rang. The sound on mb1 is far better than that on B.

At this time, a picture also appeared on the screen.

Gates of "Metal Slug" was a little excited, because the Lg of "Metal Slug" was designed by Gates and Jobs.

And below Lg, there are game options.

New game, continue, two-player mode, game settings.

Unlike other games now, the game "Metal Slug" can support the archive function, and can store the game record in the machine, so that you can play it wherever you go.

After choosing a new game, "g" appears again. Compared with the current cassette game, the CD-ROM game has a disadvantage, that is, it lags behind the current cassette when reading data. After all, this is also the disadvantage of the CD-ROM drive.

After waiting for a while, I entered the selection screen.

This picture is eye-catching.

In the screen, there are a total of four characters of two men and two women to choose from~lightnovelpub.net~ And different from the current B, the character screen of "Metal Slug" can indeed see those cartoon characters, and these people have more Reality is no longer the same as in B, just a few small pixels.

"Start the game."

After Gates chose to start, the system began to read the disk again, and then entered the game...

"Metal Slug..."

Gates is very excited, he finally wants to play the game he designed...

...

Tomorrow the exam...bless me...but after the exam, we still have to stay in school to draw...

By the way, after each upload, there are always several carriage returns that will be swallowed, I don’t know why... ..
