Located in the northwest of Bay Island, Zhuqian City is where the main plant of Bay Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is located.

"Really?

"Please, you don't know how to read it yourself?"

The two people looked at the data on the computer screen and couldn't take their eyes off it.

"Oh, what month was the last time?"

"Came in April. Five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, half a year. Even if you use our gnflow, you don't need to be so exaggerated!"

"Oh, how many people are doing it, do you think it's a company with a background?"

"How can this be explained?"

"Definitely, 17 years old, Taibao is normal. Two pieces a year, and they are all chips hanging like this, how can it be possible without a background!"

The technician who was in charge of helping the rover tape out was talking in disbelief over there, while Liao Qingshan, who was in charge of docking with the rover, saw more.

He comes from a technical background and is very sensitive to the characteristics of these two chips.

The process of the chip is not high, 0.28 microns.

But he could see some of the doorways in the circuit diagram.

The common feature of these two chips is that compared with other chips of the same type with the same process technology, the design architecture of these two chips is more concise and efficient!

As a world-renowned semiconductor pure foundry, VSMC has done tape-out and mass production of chips for many chip design companies.

Liao Qingshan thinks that he has this eyesight, this flintstone technology has strong chip design capabilities!

In fact, this is also the company with the strongest chip design capabilities on the other side of the shore that I have come into contact with now.

Liao Qingshan believes that this company is very important.

Because since the dot-com bubble burst, the entire semiconductor industry has been hit hard.

Among its peers, the situation of Bay Semiconductor Manufacturing Company is very good. Up to now, most of its peers are still in negative growth, while Bay Semiconductor has returned to positive growth, basically returning to the revenue scale of 00.

It can be seen that sometimes a crisis is also an opportunity.

As a first-class pure foundry, the most ideal partner is a first-class chip design company.

Such a combination can come up with world-class chips, occupy the market, and continue to grow.

Moreover, unlike other chip design companies, Flint Technology actually came up with two high-level chips in different fields, which is intriguing.

This means that it does not just serve a certain segment, but also makes a specific product.

It must have other R&D plans!

With the first time is accidental, but with the second time, it needs to be taken seriously.

Liao Qingshan arranged the tape-out work and wrote a report to the company's senior management.

……

The opinion of Tsmc on the Flint Technology over there is not known within the Flint Research Institute.

But it was indeed a time when morale was high within the Flint Research Institute.

An integrated circuit design and systems laboratory, a semiconductor process laboratory, with a working area of 2,000 square meters, equipped with the best equipment, is working on multiple projects at the same time.

The boss himself and Academician Ni led Lin Yaodong and some newly introduced semiconductor scientific research talents to tackle key memory chips.

Liu Hanhao took the original elite backbone to tackle video codec chips and image processors.

Some of the original elite backbones are independently led to upgrade and other versions of the U disk control chip and audio chip.

The Flint Research Institute is already a powerful chip research institution in China.

At least that's what the Flint Institute thinks of itself.

But at the moment, on the outside, the eyes of the chip field are attracted by Loongson.

Since the end of September, the Loongson press conference has been held, and this chip has been known as the "first Chinese core".

The chip is too tall in the eyes of ordinary people.

When popularizing science, it is always said that a chip with a large fingernail is integrated with hundreds or tens of millions of transistors.

And then there's always a picture of a finger twisting the transistor.

But the knowledge involved in the chip is indeed too professional, and in the praise of the media and the cheers and expectations of the people, Hu Weiwu is actually very calm.

Since the beginning of the project, the leadership of the Institute of Computing Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has made it clear that this is a more versatile chip.

It's not on the track against Intel at all.

The reason is very simple, for the time being, it can't be compared at all.

It is aimed at various fields of the country that have special requirements for "security" to meet the chip needs of various electronic devices.

It's not about competing with Intel in the PC space, although it can also meet the needs of low-end machines.

But ordinary people don't understand this.

What ordinary people are addicted to is the verbal atmosphere of "you can say nothing to Intel and AMD" in the media, and it is the typical heroic story of seven or eight people, two or three qiang, who successfully taped out in fifteen months, and was named Dog Leftover {godson} in the hope of being able to feed well.

Hu Weiwu was naturally on fire, and all kinds of honors came one after another, and he was even called a "national hero".

Such a highlight obviously touched Ni Guangbei.

He's been squatting down to the Flint Research Institute lately.

Gu Song was worried about his body, as long as he didn't have class, he would come over to pull Ni Guangbei to drink tea, chat, and rest for a while.

Ni Guangbei was very dissatisfied at first, thinking that Gu Song was making trouble, until Gu Song asked him: "Ni Lao, what do you think Loongson should do next?"

"Industrialization!" Ni Guangbei said without hesitation.

Gu Song asked, "What is the entry point?"

Ni Guangbei opened his mouth, a little unsure of how to say it.

If it had been a year ago, he might have been able to talk about it and chart a path for its future development.

But after knowing Gu Song, the two had a deep conversation about these topics more than once.

He knew what Gu Song meant, the chip eventually needed to be applied. In the consumer market, it is still competing with the hegemon, the performance is not as good as others, the support of software manufacturers is not as good as others, and consumers only rely on a patriotic heart to spend money to buy poor products?

Naturally, it can only be used in the field where domestic chips have to be used, or in the field of consumer products that the overlord does not look down on.

Thinking of how long and difficult this road was, Ni Guangbei couldn't be so bold anymore.

You can only use a smaller investment than others to accelerate the pace of catching up with others.

Gu Song knew better than him how difficult this road was. Because the person who walks this path is not like him, who knows the direction of the future.

Hu Weiwu is a real fighter, and he has been focusing on the research and development of domestic chips with this team. Even if the current Loongson No. 1 can only be regarded as an improvement on the basis of the MIPS instruction set, it is not enough to call it 100% pure. But Hu Weiwu did not give up, he took his disciples to go forward with difficulty. It was not until 16 years that the third generation developed on the basis of the Loongson instruction set with independent intellectual property rights finally passed the first threshold.

Until Gu Song read the file, Loongson was still struggling in the situation of "not being able to sell". However, the back that could not be seen can be seen after all.

Moreover, his disciples have also broken into such a world in the field of artificial intelligence chips.

Gu Song has no way to wake up the honorable Hu Weiwu at this moment, but he can make the genius waste 12 years, and he can also let the old man rekindle his ambition.

"Elder Ni, don't burn your body. You're just in your early 60s, and you still have a long way to go. Let's be solid and make the chips that the market needs first. ”

Ni Guangbei thought of the huge empire that Intel and Windows had already built, his eyes finally became firm, and he nodded slowly. Baidu: Read the latest chapter of "The Life of Rebirth, Fight for Literature" for free for the first time.
