▲ Liu Chuanzhi during entrepreneurship

The Institute of Computing Technology was the most authoritative computer research institution at that time, and the computers required for China's atomic bombs and artificial satellites were all developed by this institute. In this research institution with 1500 researchers, Liu Chuanzhi has always been unknown. Compared to many of his colleagues, he lacks the talent and calmness of a scientist. His position is a magnetic recording technology engineer, but in fact, he has no interest in it. I entered the institution back then solely to find an opportunity to bring my wife and daughter back to my parents' side. In the 14 years he worked at this computing institute, he never showed any interest in scientific research, but was full of interest in everything happening in China every day. He often hid in an empty house with several close colleagues to discuss Lin Biao's plane crash, the rampant "Gang of Four", why Mao Zedong chose Hua Guofeng as his successor, and so on. Compared to the dull computer, these political topics made him blush and excited.
