In the first half of the year, Lu Yan's important work was two, one was a graduate thesis, and the other was chip research and development.

The former is easy to say, take money, knowledge, and sports points, and exchange them in the system Tianzhu module.

All he had to do was to study the content of the paper thoroughly, and then do some relevant experiments to complete the data.

The second is chip research and development, he used a large number of points to exchange the design technology of HiSilicon Kirin 920, and then guided the chip design team to come up with the design results in the shortest possible time.

Then, ask TSMC to do the OEM.

According to the news that came over there after the year, the chip has passed the test and is ready for mass production.

In addition, congratulations to Kunlun Chip, which has designed the world's leading top products in one fell swoop.

Qualcomm, another giant of mobile phone chips, before January 2013, product names start with S, S1, S2, S3, and S4.

Xiaomi M2, released in 2012, used the more advanced S4 series at that time APQ8064 quad-core 1.5GHz processor, using 28nm Krait architecture and dual-channel memory.

And the Kirin 920 after Lu Yanmo's reform, which is now the Shenlong 920 chip, was originally born in 2014 three years later.

Appeared three years ahead of schedule, and the performance is not a little bit advanced.

So that after the news was transmitted back to Kunlun Chip Company, the vast majority of all the engineers had an expression of disbelief.

Because chip research and development is too expensive and time-consuming.

That product is not a variety of modifications, testing, and then modifying and testing when problems are found. A huge amount of money was burned in the process.

Although it took a year for the birth of Shenlong 920, the research and development process was too smooth, and there was a feeling of being formed at one time.

In a daze, an industry-leading product was born, and I can't believe it!

Lu Yan looked at the state of the group, and he was also a little hesitant, because the team had not been trained.

If you don't have a large number of points, continue to exchange technical data from the system Tianzhu module, just with their current appearance, I'm afraid they won't be able to research better products!

But this is also impossible, chip research and development is too expensive. How many billions did Huawei HiSilicon burn before it had its later results.

Lu Yan doesn't have so much money to burn, he must first successfully develop a product, which can ensure that the chip company has money to make, and Shenzhou Mobile will invest some scientific research funds.

Then you can continue to recruit people on a large scale in the follow-up and maintain it.

Chips cost money in research and development, but product sales are also quite profitable.

Like a Snapdragon 855, it costs more than 600 pieces a piece, which basically accounts for 20% of the price of Xiaomi Mi 9.

The chips that are almost all three or four hundred yuan a piece.

How many Xiaomi shipments a year, at its peak, hundreds of millions of units.

Qualcomm's sales on Xiaomi's side are tens of billions, and the profits can be imagined!

Now with the Shenlong 920 chip, it is used in its own Shenzhou mobile phone, either to enter the high-end, or to occupy the market with super performance.

Lu Yan didn't think about the specific operation. After all, his advantage is in academics, and he has more insight in business.

I found a group of executives from Shenzhou Mobile Phone Company, and brought the first batch of Shenlong 920 chips sent by TSMC.

In the conference room, a group of executives, you look at me, I look at you, pass a mobile phone chip, but a small part of the technical information, is still in an unbelievable state.

In particular, Dr. Zhou Huiping, who is in charge of technology, carefully examines the small chip in his hand.

I don't know how to say it, so I thought about it and said: "Chairman, can this chip really achieve the performance mentioned in the data?"

Lu Yan smiled, "Of course, I wouldn't joke about this kind of thing!"

Zhou Xunping nodded, "I understand, I understand, but I still find it unbelievable! Kunlun chip, after all, it has only been established for one year, the engineer team!"

Lu Yan smiled, "I know that the objective conditions are poor. The problem is that the wisdom of our Chinese should not be underestimated. Over the years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, how many technologies have achieved corner overtaking!"

Cao Dexian, the sales director, smiled: "That's it, when foreign countries were so blocked, didn't we also build an atomic bomb!"

Zhou Huanping couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this, and said in his heart: "Is this the same thing? At that time, how many resources and manpower did the state invest? How much did Lu Yan invest, but I am afraid that 200 million yuan has not been spent!"

Today's CEO of Shenzhou Mobile, Rebus said with a smile: "The chairman has always been silent. Let's not discuss the question of how chips are made. Let's talk about how to use it in the future!"

Huang Jiangji said: "Such a good chip, of course, is high-end, design a flagship machine, enhance the brand image!"

Among the crowd, some nodded slightly, but no one else continued to speak, obviously still considering.

Rebus asked Lin Bin again: "Mr. Lin, what do you say?"

Lin Bin smiled, and asked Lu Yan instead: "Chairman, how about the follow-up chip development, the next generation of upgraded products, how many years will it come out?"

Lu Yan smiled: "You are asking the point, let's tell everyone this! The design of this chip is really like a divine help, and all aspects are very smooth." But the development of follow-up products, to be honest, has no clue at present, and it is estimated that it will take two to three years before new products come out!"

Lin Bincai said: "If that's the case, I don't recommend using this chip to make a high-end model." Because as you know, the chip industry is developing very fast.

This one is only temporarily leading, but the follow-up product research and development can't keep up. On Qualcomm's side, there is a steady stream of new products online. For the time being, the company still has to focus on the chips over there!"

Rebus smiled and said, "I think that's the case, what do you say, chairman?"

Lu Yan smiled: "The hero sees the same thing, in fact, I think the same way, the Kunlun chip is just a temporary preemptive, and it is not really growing up yet." rashly entered the high-end mobile phone with its own chip, for fear that the follow-up upgrade would not be able to keep up.

My idea is to use this chip to make a more cost-effective mobile phone and occupy more markets, what do you think!"

Huang Qiji said: "I agree with the chairman's proposal, and I think that in addition to Shenzhou and corn, another series can be released, and the selling point of publicity is that the Chinese have their own chips!"

Marketing Director Cao Dexian said: "Lao Huang, you are robbing me of all my work!"

Huang Jiangji said: "I'm in charge of the online mall, and I was also in charge of marketing!"

Rebus clapped his hand and said: "Okay, then pass a resolution and come out with another series, and try to use domestic spare parts." What do you think?"

Lu Yan smiled: "Of course, it's decided, and you can handle the follow-up press conference together!"

Rebus asked, "What about you?"

"Of course, I'm going to write my graduation thesis!"
