Chapter 290: China's Chips, the Road to Rise (2)
"Steve, I don't want to hire people from abroad, from the United States, Germany and other countries," Lucy said seriously. My first requirement for employees to work in our chip factory is that they must be Chinese. ”
Xu Xincheng looked at Lucy with some puzzlement, in other fields, she has hundreds or even thousands of foreign talents, but here in the chip factory, she doesn't want to recruit foreign talents, there must be a reason.
What could be the reason?
Xu Xincheng didn't ask, but just cast an inquiring glance at Lucy.
Lucy said solemnly: "There are many reasons why only Chinese are hired. I suspect that there will be people who will think that we are doing this mainly to reduce staff costs, and indeed, there is a reason for that. That's not the main reason, though.
There are two main reasons for this. First, in the future, our chip factory will be one of the most core and important units of the whole company, in addition to the chips that will produce all the smart products of our company, but also because there will be a lot of confidential technologies there, there will be a large number of confidential technologies belonging to the seventh and eighth levels, and there will even be some confidential technologies belonging to the ninth level. If we're hiring foreign staff, then we're going to have a huge security challenge, and if we're hiring Chinese staff, we're going to have challenges, but they're much less challenging.
Second, and most importantly, I want to use this chip factory to train a large number of the best chip manufacturing talents for China. ”
"Ahh Oh my God! It turns out that Lucy is actually to train chip manufacturing talents for China, which is a great thing, a great good thing with immeasurable merits.
Lucy said solemnly: "My goal is to establish our chip company and chip factory into the Whampoa Military Academy for China's chip talents. ”
"Whampoa Military Academy?"
"Yes. There are many reasons why the development of China's chip industry is still underdeveloped, and to solve the problem and rise rapidly, we must start from the main reasons. You are quite right just now, the biggest problem restricting the development of China's chip industry is the lack of chip talents. ”
"Yes, it is reported that the relevant units have done in-depth investigation and research on this, and they have come to the conclusion that China's talent gap in chips is 300,000. ”
"300,000 people? These 300,000 people should mainly refer to ordinary chip talents, this gap is relatively easy to fill, because such chip talents are easier to cultivate, and general chip research and development companies and chip factories are likely to cultivate such talents. In fact, what China lacks most is the top and top chip talents, and such a talent gap should be about 30,000. It's not easy to train top and top chip talents. ”
"What do you mean?" Xu Xincheng had already heard what Lucy was saying, but he couldn't fully determine what it was, so he asked.
"How are talents cultivated?" Lucy didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically.
Xu Xincheng thought for a moment and said: "Talents need training, they need guidance, they need a place where they can grow rapidly, and they need an environment where they can continue to practice and experience." ”
"Where do the best people come from?"
"The best people, in general, can only be developed from the best places. ”
"Yes. In fact, the reason why chip companies in Western countries are so advanced is because they have a large number of top and top chip talents, and most of those talents come out of American companies. ”
"American IN company? Do you mean the IN company that started with computer microprocessors and dominated the global computer chip market for decades?"
"Yes. Most of the chip talents and industry elites in the world's top ten chip companies came out of that company, or rather, they were cultivated there. That company is the West Point Military Academy for Western chip talents. ”
"Oh. I understand. I see. Xu Xincheng said suddenly.
"My goal is to turn our chip company and chip factory into the same place as IN company. If it is the West Point Military Academy for Western chip talents, then we will be the Whampoa Military Academy for Chinese chip talents.
The Whampoa Military Academy has cultivated a large number of outstanding military talents for China and trained many of the best military generals, such as Xu Xiangqian, Chen Geng, Zuo Quan, and so on. The goal of our chip R&D company and chip factory is to cultivate a large number of the best chip talents for China and cultivate a number of outstanding chip leaders. ”
"Chip R&D company?" Xu Xincheng noticed that Lucy also added the word "chip R&D company" in front of "chip factory".
"Yes, the chip R&D company is where we train chip design and R&D talents. In terms of chip design and R&D, in the past few years, we still need the support of foreign talents, but I also hope that in a few years, in our chip R&D company, the top talents and top talents responsible for designing and developing chips are Chinese. ”
"Understood. ”
"My plan is that within two years, the chip R&D company and chip factory will be established and run smoothly, from the third year, the process of chip self-ownership will begin, and then the proportion of self-ownership will be increased year by year; by the sixth year, the chip 100 will be self-owned; by the seventh year, our chip talents should be mature, and from the seventh year, we will fission out more chip R&D companies and chip factories, which they design, The chips R&D and production are external, and the main target customers will be domestic enterprises, and after fully meeting the needs of domestic enterprises, they are foreign enterprises. ”
"That's great!That's really great!" Listening to Lucy's narration, Xu Xincheng felt that the blood in his whole body was boiling. Oh my God, it turns out that Lucy's plans for the chip industry are so ambitious.
Lucy concluded: "This is the positioning and goal we have set for chip R&D companies and chip factories. ”
"That's really great!" Xu Xincheng shouted happily again, "Lucy, if your plan can be realized, then our company will become the leader of China's chip industry and will make great contributions to the rise of China's chip industry." ”
"Yes. China's chip industry really needs a leader, and I hope that we can become that leader. ”
"That's right. Lucy, we've been talking for so long, I don't know if you've already set a name for our chip R&D company and chip factory?"
"Not yet. Do you have any good suggestions?"
