091 Argument

This time, Niu Dameng was in another conference room, which was mainly a place for experts and technical backbones to communicate with each other. Zhang Yifu is undoubtedly the youngest among them.

Perhaps the participants sitting at the opposite edge of the long table may not know each other, but when it comes to the three people on the main seat, except for the "countryman" like Zhang Yifu, they are well-known in the circle of technology in the system.

One of them was the host of this venue, Mu Hengzhi, the deputy director in charge of the production department, can be called the number one in technology, not the number one in the country in terms of technology. It can only be said that he is the most powerful among those who are engaged in technology, and among those who are engaged in power, he is the most skilled. His thick eyes are fixed on the bridge of his nose, making it difficult for him to see his expression clearly.

Deputy Minister Mu had a little younger hand in his left hand. He looked like he was in his early forties, but his hair was gray at almost sixty. The work of the Safety Supervision Office was indeed not easy to do.

Needless to say, Hua Changqing could only participate in this sub-venue, with seats in front and back, so he sat here temporarily. For himself, it was indifferent to holding a meeting and seats in a row, but for the participants, this undoubtedly reflected a subtle trend, the department's attitude towards this expert from the sky.

At the beginning of the meeting, Vice Minister Mu Hengzhi made a few simple and polite words and went straight to the topic. Everyone took out the materials that had been prepared and began to analyze the accidents in the first half of the year technically and substantially.

Duan Youwei had already seen this material for Zhang Yifu, so Zhang Yifu didn't have to spend too much effort to figure out the clues.

Overall, nine points are true and one point is confused.

This is also knowledgeable.

For example, 27 minutes of power outage and 31 minutes of power outage, these are two concepts. Just like selling 988 and selling 1,000 during promotions, half an hour and one hour are sensitive nodes. If you can find a way to control the impact time of the accident within half an hour or within one hour in the report, the burden on the responsible party will undoubtedly be much lighter.

In addition, there is a problem of defining responsibility, which is vague in the end without exception, attributed to "defects of a certain device", "looplets of a certain system", "inadequate management", etc., unless there are major accidents with extremely serious consequences or major accidents, the specific name of the responsible person will appear in the report.

It can be seen that in most cases, small-scale power outages do not cause excessive social impact, economic losses, or personnel losses, and the responsibility will not be taken too deeply. Generally, if the limelight is over a year later, everything will be fine.

This technical sub-venue did not get too deeply involved in many accidents. After some discussions that were not painful and itchy, the topic finally came to the only major accident in the first half of the year.

There is no doubt that it is the accident in the Jiutan Power Plant monitoring system.

After describing the accident analysis report, the director of the Safety Supervision Department put down the materials in his hand and looked at everyone: "This accident analysis and improvement measures are mainly analyzed by the accident investigation teams of the Ministry and the province. In terms of automation, we are still in the progressive stage. Considering the seriousness of this accident, we also want to brainstorm and listen to the opinions of all experts, colleagues and comrades in the power plant. If you have any opinions on the safety of automation, please mention it."

At this time, Duan Youwei slightly turned around and looked at Zhang Yifu sitting in the back row, making an interesting expression.

Zhang Yifu nodded understandingly.

It's about to start, and this should be the focus of controversy at this meeting.

An old expert who had previously talked with Duan Youwei quickly signaled and began to speak.

"Dear leaders and colleagues, I have been retired for two years. At this meeting, the department invited me to discuss it together. I feel very honored. Regarding the matter of the Nine Stand, I was also a member of the analysis expert group at that time. I watched the scene in person. I have some ideas here to attract attention and talk to you."

The old expert nodded to everyone and directly expressed his point of view.

"Computers are unreliable."

The audience was silent, and no one interrupted. Some people looked down at the old expert and waited for him to continue talking.

The old expert breathed a sigh of relief and said with a certain class excitement: "First of all, computers are made by the United States, and software is also bought from Americans. We cannot fully understand what is inside. After the reform and opening up, our relationship with the United States has indeed recovered, but we must be defensive. There are huge safety hazards here. It is no exaggeration to say that handing over everything to computers is equivalent to giving up our initiative to control the power system."

No one expected that this guy would bypass the technical problems as soon as he spoke and took them to a political level.

People who retire are awesome, they are not afraid of anything and dare to say anything.

"Cough..." Mu Hengzhi's expression was a little awkward after hearing this, "Old Zou, political issues are not the main argument of our venue. We have special agencies to manage security and counter-espionage work. You should implement it in technology."

The old expert Zou looked dissatisfied: "Minister, we came from that era. I have seen Japanese spies caught by the power plant. That person is exactly the same as us. He is completely alone in chatting and eating. It was not until he was captured by security personnel that I realized that imperialism is selfless. My philosophy is that if you don't use things, you don't need them. If you don't use them, you should use them less. If you insist on domestic production and self-reliance. It doesn't matter if we develop slower automation, you can operate manually first. I have been here for so many years. Don't be anxious for a while, otherwise if they take advantage of the loopholes..."

"Okay, okay, I understand." Mu Hengzhi sighed long, wishing he should give face to the old comrade and invite him to attend the meeting. Isn't this a mess? He waved his hand and said, "Old Zou, we will record your opinions in the record, and study them carefully after the production department."

"Thank you, thank you." Old Zou looked like a child. Seeing the minister promised to pay attention, his expression improved a little bit, and finally said, "In short, automation cannot be urgent. I think it is too urgent now. Is this problem already emerging? There will be a larger pilot in the future. I think it should be slowed down, otherwise it will lay a nationwide safety hazard. No one can afford this responsibility."

After Lao Zou finished speaking, everyone couldn't help but whisper.

Zhang Yifu leaned forward immediately and asked quietly behind Lao Duan: "Mr. Duan, isn't this old Zou the same person as you?"

"So yes, after retirement, he has changed a lot and has become an old angry young man." Old Duan shook his head helplessly, "He has political remarks like this, but if he comes forward, other people who insist on non-automation have something to say."

"I see."

"Don't argue with them for political issues. Let's talk about technical details later. If you have any ideas, you can tell me and I will create conditions for you to speak."

"Thank you, Mr. Duan!"

In fact, after hearing Lao Zou's angry youth remarks, Zhang Yifu was also a little moved. Although this old comrade was paranoid, his words were really reasonable. Perhaps by accident, he actually revealed the biggest security risks of the information society in decades. When all privacy and intelligence are transmitted on the network in the form of data, the network, software, and operating system responsible for transmission have undoubtedly become a very terrifying giant.

For individuals, it is almost transparent in an information society, which is the exposure of privacy and the damage to personal rights. For the country, it is undoubtedly an intelligence crisis or even a paralysis of management. This is also the reason why the WINDOWS operating system is criticized 20 years later. It is too American and may be a super strategic weapon that is more powerful than a nuclear bomb.

From this perspective, Lao Zou is almost right. Our software cannot blindly use Lao American. The only thing he is wrong is that he underestimates the development speed of my country's power industry, especially the development speed of power automation. As for software, he has been completely self-reliant in 20 years. Whether it is power plant automation or power grid automation, he is at the forefront of the world.

As expected, after Lao Zou's remarks about anger, a leader engaged in infrastructure continued his speech.

"Since Lao Zou mentioned it, I will continue to say it." The middle-aged leader said in a deep voice, "As far as technical, I think it's too immature now. Let's not talk about politics. Just about safety, American companies come to our power plant to install and debug, and we can only try our best to maintain and operate. In the more than a year of piloting the Jiutan Power Plant, there have been many problems in actual applications, and negotiations with the US side are very unsuccessful. This power outage was just an outbreak after the accumulation of problems. Our accident analysis also sent to the US companies, requiring them to optimize according to the structure of our power plant, but they have not made any substantial progress so far. I think in this regard, we should not place our hopes on them."

The remarks were quite smooth, and a senior engineer on the opposite side also responded: "Yes, the problem is not only that. It takes a long time to cultivate a skilled operator and maintain personnel in a professional English operating interface. Jiudan has not yet been perfect. If the pilot is expanded nationwide, more problems will probably arise. Our system is always the first priority. Jiudan has given us enough warnings. The automation efficiency is indeed high, but now it is not the time to be fully popularized."

Just like this, conservative comrades said and sprayed the power plant automation individually. However, their arguments were not as sharp as Lao Zou. They just hoped to adjust the proportion and automation speed and adopt more conventional manual operations.

Mu Hengzhi, the main seat, heard a lot and looked at Hua Changqing on the right with help.

"Chinese worker, you are back from the United States, so why not talk about the situation there."

Hua Changqing had no expression on his face and was in a daze.

"Chinese Worker?" Mu Hengzhi said again.

"Ah? Oh." Hua Changqing then reacted and said to the deputy minister, "Talk about the US automation, right?"

The audience was ashamed, the others were chatting in dire straits, you were always wandering...
