Chapter 108: The Shadow Overlord
[108] Shadow Overlord
The pale reality of the domestic chip manufacturing industry made the young people of Chongguang Company slightly depressed, but they were soon excited by the news that the film was about to be launched.
Although this chip was mainly designed by Hu Yiting, as a participant, everyone feels honored.
Hu Yiting asked for everyone's opinions and asked: "It's been a while since our chip came out, but we haven't chosen a name, do you have anything to build?"
Cao Yunuan sat in front of the window of the real room, happily playing the classic C language game gorilla throwing bananas with Jiang Yunshun under DOS.
In the battle, Cao Yunuan's banana bullets were not missing, and the angle and strength of each shot were calculated just right, which made Jiang Yunshun repeatedly deflated.
Jiang Yunshun looked up at Hu Yiting and said: "Hu Yiting, you are our chief engineer, and you are the veritable 'father' of this chip, so you should make up your mind."
Everyone nodded in agreement and looked at Hu Yiting.
"How about calling AK57?" Hu Yiting said casually.
"AK57?" Wu Shihuan touched his chin, "This is a good name, reminiscent of the AK47 submachine gun, powerful enough." ”
Cao Yunuan shouted: "It's hard to hear, it's better to call Flower57, 57 flowers are inserted in a bottle, how beautiful." ”
Li Xiuming sat next to Hu Yiting, writing the advertising brochure of the chip on the microcomputer, and said: "It's okay to call anything, hurry up and set one, my advertising manuscript is almost finished, and the name is still replaced by XXX." ”
Peng Bin was busy writing an instant messaging software requested by Hu Yiting, but his mouth was not idle: "I think it's called multimedia 57, I can understand it at a glance, and it's easy to remember." ”
Because in the previous work of tampering with the graphics card drivers of the Imperial League, Peng Bin showed extremely rogue Trojan-level ideas and superb programming skills, so he was now assigned a task by Hu Yiting to preside over the compilation of a software that will be installed on computers that will be installed on the streets in the future-QQ.
Hu Yiting said: "You are busy with you, hurry up and write out the kernel source code." ”
Peng Bin tapped the keyboard lightly: "It's almost over, I'm leaving a back door according to your requirements, add two. DLL text jiàn,In the future, as long as the server sends a command,The software background can execute the command,Pop-ups or something are trivial.,Even if it's a remote injection of a Trojan, it's no problem.。 ”
Li Xiuming also studied computer architecture development and application, and is now arranged by Hu Yiting to write a VCD playback program based on multimedia instruction set. ”
"Shadow Overlord?" Hu Yiting said in his heart that the name was also domineering: "Yes, this name is good, people who build machines will know what is going on as soon as they hear it." ”
Wu Shihuan and others pondered for a while, and they all felt that although the name was straightforward and vulgar, it was very in line with the appetite of the market, and they could understand it as soon as they heard it.
Hu Yiting finally made a decision: "Okay, it's called Youying Overlord." ”
Li Xiuming hurriedly replaced all the advertising brochures on the computer, and replaced all XXX with Youying Overlord.
……
With the help of Changxiang's factory in Beidu, the design of the motherboard and graphics card equipped with the coprocessor chip of Chongguang Youying Overlord was quickly completed and samples were made.
Immediately afterwards, in the newly completed building of Beidu Changxiang Group, the engineers of Changxiang Group conducted performance tests on graphics cards and integrated motherboards, and were surprised to find that all parameters met the design requirements.
Luo Zheng, the chief engineer in charge of hardware development in the personal computer division of Changxiang Group, was very emotional about the test results, and said to Yang Yunqing, assistant president of Changxiang Group, next to him: "I really can't imagine that this coprocessor chip has such a strong ability! It can not only play multimedia audio and video smoothly, but also accelerate 3D applications by up to 40%!" In this way, whether it is used for home entertainment or CAD-aided design in all walks of life, there is a great prospect, and this is simply the best companion for the CPU!"
Imagine Assistant President Yang Yunqing's eyes lit up: "The chairman has decided at yesterday's strategic meeting that once he gets the Youying Overlord chip delivered by Hong Kong Feilong Company, he will immediately start producing these two graphics cards and motherboard products." ”
"Last year, we imagined that the group's PC sales exceeded 48,000 units, and so far this year, it has exceeded 50,000 units, and it is expected to double throughout the year," Luo said. The sales volume of our motherboard in the assembly machine market has been maintained at about 30,000 pieces per month, but the profit margin of the graphics card is too thin, and the share we imagine has not been large. ”
Yang Yunqing nodded slightly: "The fly in the ointment is that the price of this chip is too high, $45 a piece, I really don't know how the chairman can agree." ”
Luo Zheng said: "I heard that Chongguang Company agreed, if the products made of these 100,000 pieces can't be sold, are they willing to eat the inventory?"
Yang Yunqing said: "How can it not be sold? Such a strong performance is placed here, even if the 486 processor is installed with this graphics card, it can also put VCD, and it can still run 3D games smoothly, this product will definitely be a big seller!"
Luo Zhengdao: "This is also normal, the price of new chips is always expensive, and the next batch is at least 20% cheaper." ”
Yang Yunqing said: "Do you know? There are only seven or eight people in Chongguang Company that developed this chip, and it was the chairman of the board of directors and the people of their computing institute who did it, and I heard that the entire core and instruction set were all developed by one person, and it only took more than a week!"
Luo Zheng almost jumped up in surprise: "Impossible, right?!" I thought this Chongguang company was a large IC design company that had just risen in China! From project approval to research and development, such a chip would have to be worked by more than 100 people for two or three years!"
Yang Yunqing said: "The chief engineer of Chongguang Company is called Hu Yiting, only 16 years old, he is a genius, I heard that he has just proved a world-class mathematical conjecture, and he is amazing. ”
"16?" Luo Zheng shook his head and sighed: "My mother, it turns out that there are really geniuses in the world!"
Yang Yunqing said with a sullen voice: "Their money is too easy to come by! Luo Zheng, tell me about your hardware development department, why didn't you think about developing a multimedia coprocessor before? This thing has been made so quickly, let's imagine so many engineers, no matter how much we toss, dozens of people can't do it in a month?"
Luo Zheng heard that Yang Yunqing meant that the hardware development department was not working well, and his heart became angry: "I don't know how others did it! Anyway, Lao Yang, let me tell you, just with the 57 multimedia instruction sets in this chip, without three or five top mathematicians spending two or three years of hard work, it will not be able to be compiled at all!"
Yang Yunqing didn't want to argue, and walked out of the real room of the hardware development department unhappily, thinking that no matter what, he would ruthlessly suppress Chongguang's offer next time!
"Liu Dong is just too easy to talk!"
