Ling Shizhe came out of the bathroom, saw Li Li sitting on the bed, looking through some local magazines in Hong Kong, walked over to bed, and said, "It's late, go to sleep." ”

"Wait a minute, I have something to tell you", Li Li put down the magazine, looked at Ling Shizhe and said, "You have already planned to split the Canadian chip lab in two and move it to Hong Kong"?

"Yes, didn't they all say yes, the last time we had a meeting, everyone agreed, they were all willing to come, what's wrong"?

"Yes, I agreed, but I had to wait until the headquarters building was built, and then I moved over, and the headquarters is still a matter of no shadow, even if it starts construction immediately, it will take almost 5 years, and you have to move now, which is different."

Ling Shizhe smiled and said, "What's the difference between moving early and moving late, you have to move anyway, isn't it bad to move now?"

Li Li replied: "It's not good, you know, now that the ECU project has been launched, what should you do with this project, stop?" This project is very important to the company," Li Li continued: "And you decided it as soon as your head was hot, you didn't have this idea yesterday, why did you have this idea today?"

Ling Shizhe stopped laughing, and after being silent for a long time, he sighed: "This project is still in the stage of pre-research, research and investigation until now, I am becoming less and less confident, I regret this project a little, not that this project has no prospects, but now a lot of electronic technology and technical conditions are limited, not necessarily successful, just barely get it out, can not hit the conditions for commercialization, if you don't do it well, it's a chicken rib, to reach maturity, I don't know how much time it will take." I've calmed down now, and now that I think about it, it's not the right time to start this project at this time, but I've done it all, so it's time to engage in technical reserves. ”

Ling Shizhe and his team since the beginning of the study of ECU, through the study of slowly found that many of the current scientific and technological conditions do not meet the requirements, a lot of accessories on the market at all, if you want to get out, you have to spend money to study these accessories, there are a lot of things that need to be studied, but also to build a special laboratory, the investment is not small, it is equivalent to relying on the strength of one person to climb all the technology trees, and ECU is slowly developed in later generations, is based on the electronic technology to reach his foundation before it appeared, The current technology is not yet up to it, and the basic conditions are there. Even if Ling Shizhe gets him out by cheating, it is not enough to have ECU, sensors, data interfaces, data cables, etc. are not a small problem, even if they are reborn and know the direction and have relevant technical information, they still have to establish a large and complete laboratory to specialize in research, and the cost of funds is huge, 1 billion, 2 billion may not be able to stop.

The current Ling Shizhe is not a giant like IBM and Texas Instruments, even if it reaches the same height as them, the funds of 1 billion and 2 billion are still not a small project, so Ling Shizhe regrets it now, he just saw the opportunity of the oil crisis, and did not fully consider the current basic conditions to become immature, thinking that it is just those things, he is reborn, and he has the technical information of later generations, no problem. As soon as he started drying, reality gave him a basin of cold water and gave him a slap in the face.

Ling Shizhe, who calmed down, began to reflect on himself, he was still too eager, and his life since rebirth was too smooth, thinking that he was a cheater with information for rebirth, so he couldn't stump himself, but he ignored the unavoidable flaw of basic conditions.

It's his own point-and-shoot camera, there are fluke ingredients in it, the camera has been 100 years since its birth, the platform is quite mature, Ling Shizhe only needs to install an electronic system in it, the key is that the current electronic technology is still very primitive, you must know that the world's first point-and-shoot machine only appeared in the 80s, and now in the 60s, it has spanned 20 years, if it weren't for Ling Shizhe to be reborn, he was an expert in this semiconductor in his previous life, and there is quite a lot of information, it is under such conditions, Ling Shizhe tried all the ways to reach the practical standard. Now if we want to engage in more advanced ECUs, we will naturally encounter the big hurdle of basic conditions, that is, IBM, and Texas they have no way to do it.

Ling Shizhe thought about it for a long time, and simply used the relocation to stop him, and it was not too late to wait for the current electronic technology conditions to arrive.

After listening to Ling Shizhe's thoughts, Li Li thought for a while and said: "Since this is the case, there is no need to relocate now, anyway, there are only eleven people in the Cortex chip lab, too few, and now the chip lab is not dozens or hundreds of people, you are not enough to engage in basic research, if it is not for your big bull who can't do anything, it is better to simply concentrate on letting them carry out in-depth research on the basis of the Cortex--M chip you designed, To be able to meet the standards of commercial application as soon as possible, it is necessary to be practical to launch it on the market."

"I don't need to relocate, after the camera is put into production, then we will set up a direct in Hong Kong, I look at the laboratory in Hong Kong, let Mark be in charge, he has lived in Hong Kong for 10 years, originally he came to the laboratory before he did a good job, if he did not find a job, he will go back to Hong Kong to continue teaching in the university. Now that he's in our company, I don't think he'll object to going to Hong Kong, and I don't think Mark will refuse when he's going to be in charge of a laboratory at that time."

After thinking about it, Ling Shizhe felt that Li Li's method was very good, and agreed to it. Seeing that it was already 11 o'clock at night, it was still daytime, and I would call Alison and Mark now.

When Alison and Mark heard Ling Shizhe's plan on the phone, Qi Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and Allison said: "Even, boss, you know that we have been planning to tell you for a long time, but we didn't say it when we saw that you were so persistent, and now everyone can relax." Cortex--m this chip is very good, we transfer the power to this I believe it only takes two years, no, one year we can launch him out of the market, one year can reach the needs of the commercial market, his market prospects are very good, yes, boss, please believe me, the prospects are very good, when we commissioned the foundry to make tape-outs, there were many people who called me and said that they were very interested in this chip, and asked me when I could meet the commercial needs, and they could pay a deposit, or even pay in advance. They want cortex--m to do the CNC system. As for Mark, I just asked, and he said he had no problem, he was willing to go to Hong Kong~~, yes boss, I was willing to go to Hong Kong, go to Hong Kong to be in charge of a laboratory~~~,'

Another person's voice came from the phone, Ling Shizhe heard it, it was Mark's voice, knew that there was no problem at all, and said into the phone: "Very good Alison, the ECU will be put down for the time being, when the conditions are met, we will start this project, but before we have researched the technology, we must apply for a patent, including the standard scheme we set, we must apply for a patent, and we want to occupy this standard."

"Yes, boss, I understand, there is this standard, as long as they need this standard, even if we don't do anything, we can sit at home, wait for the money to be automatically delivered to the door, rest assured boss, I will keep an eye on him personally."

After making the call, Ling Shizhe said to Li Li: "Now that everything is settled, it's time to do what we should do." As he spoke, he threw himself at Li Li.

"Oops, you tap, it hurts me."
