Chapter 280: IC Design Taken Seriously

Lin Qiangsheng led the company's senior management to the airport at eight o'clock in two black Cadillac Saiwei and Mercedes-Benz, which they were to welcome the national computer and large-scale integrated circuit leading group to Bincheng.

This leading group is personally held by the vice premier of the country, and the level is very high, and the province was not notified originally, but Lin Qiangsheng felt that it was still necessary to inform the province, so the provincial leader naturally appeared among the people who received it.

Wan Li learned that Lin Qiangsheng's semiconductor company had been completed, and the equipment used in it was imported from abroad. He became interested in Lin Johnson's semiconductor company and immediately decided to visit Ben Thanh. Moreover, he not only took himself but also a group of people from the domestic semiconductor research institute with deep research in the field of computer integrated circuits, and after obtaining Lin Qiangsheng's consent, he wanted to conduct a month-long observation of this company.

This is an extremely important observation, and the Semiconductor Research Institute attaches great importance to it, and it is usually very, very difficult to visit advanced laboratories and factories abroad in China. Visitors can often only get a glimpse from a long distance, and they are not allowed to overstep in the slightest. This time, Lin Qiangsheng allowed domestic researchers to observe up close, and even go deep into the front-line production workshop for on-the-spot operation.

At nearly nine o'clock, the group led by Wan Li stepped off the passenger plane, and the provincial party committee and the provincial government received the important news that the vice premier was coming to Bincheng, and the province also sent important leaders to the airport to greet him.

In the warm welcome, Wan Li walked in front of Lin Qiangsheng, shook hands with him with a smile and said, "You are Mr. Lin Qiangsheng?" ”

Lin Qiangsheng smiled: "Hello Wan Lao, welcome to visit!" ”

Wan Li was very tall, he held Lin Qiangsheng's hand and said with a smile: "It's me who welcomes you, welcome!" The country is in need of patriots like you who love the motherland and enthusiastically promote the prosperity and development of the motherland's technology, and I warmly welcome Mr. Lin on behalf of the Central Committee."

Wanli said such a thing at such a high level here, and it was obvious that many people in the central government appreciated Lin Qiangsheng's efforts. He also said this on behalf of many people!

Lin Qiangsheng smiled happily, and he was also very excited in his heart, he hoped very much to win the wide recognition of the central government, and Wanli's words also seemed to indicate that the central government wanted to give him Lin Qiangsheng a reward that he couldn't imagine to be!

The Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government were going to arrange for Wan Li and his party to attend a reception, but Wan Li waved his hand and said, "You can wait for food and drink, let's go to Mr. Lin's semiconductor factory first!" I heard that there is the most advanced equipment and technology in the world. I've been thinking about this all along! ”

Wang Shoujue, who accompanied him, said with a smile: "I heard that Mr. Lin's equipment is imported from abroad, and the state-owned Dongguang Factory in Beijing has also put on a production line, so I don't know how advanced it is and what level it is!" ”

The leaders of the province couldn't say anything when they saw this situation, so everyone could only smile and accompany the leaders to visit the factory. Since the construction of the new industrial zone, the provincial party committee and the provincial government have almost become a supporting role, and every time the central government comes to see Lin Qiangsheng, they are used to it.

Lin Qiangsheng invited Wan Li to the Cadillac Saiwei's car, this luxury car is different at first glance, and it is two laps larger than other cars.

Wan Li asked Lin Qiangsheng with interest: "We don't have such a luxury car in China at present, I heard that Harbin Auto's Accord sedan is good." Now it's a government car, how does it compare to this car? ”

Lin Qiangsheng said with a smile: "After all, Europe and the United States are old industrial countries, and it is also very rich to make this kind of luxury car." After all, the Accord is a mid-to-high-end car, not the same level as this kind of luxury car, and belongs to the B-class sedan in the world. The technological level and technical strength of our domestic cars are still far behind such developed countries! ”

Wan Li nodded and sat in the car and said: "Our country is now reforming and opening up, and foreign things will pour in in large quantities with the opening of the country!" Time waits for no one, we need everyone's joint efforts! Mr. Lin has done a very good job in this regard, and has played a good role model for Chinese and foreign people, and the two automobile companies you have participated in have developed greatly. There is a good chance that the number of imported cars will be further restricted domestically, and the state hopes that you will continue to do so in the future. I can make up for the gap in domestic cars! Wan Li looked at Lin Qiangsheng and said slowly to him.

"Oh? Is it really necessary to further restrict imported cars in China? That's great! Lin Qiangsheng shouted happily, if the central government has such thoughts, why should he worry about the tide of automobile imports in a few years!

Thinking about the meaning of Wanli's words, Lin Qiangsheng said with a smile: "Please rest assured that we will work hard, the current production capacity of Binqi is expected to break through the 100,000 annual production mark, and the Accord of Harbin Automobile will also increase production soon, after all, the quality of their workers is very high." It is estimated that it will soon reach an annual output of 70,000 units! ”

Wan Li nodded with a smile and said: "In the past two years, the number of imported cars has generally decreased, especially the number of imported cars from the CIS and other countries, which has left a lot of foreign exchange for the country, thanks to you!" ”

"Please rest assured that after the restriction of imported cars, Binqi and Harbin Automobile will definitely be able to meet the domestic demand for cars!" Lin Qiangsheng said confidently.

"Good! I'll take you as a promise! Wanli patted his thigh and smiled heartily. This is also the answer he wants on behalf of the central government.

On the way to the new industrial zone, Lin Qiangsheng's thoughts were full of thoughts, and it was obvious that this was what the central government had told him, and the key was that Lin Qiangsheng didn't know which people above meant it or collective decision-making.

"Chip production requires a high-clean workshop or even an ultra-clean workshop, and the cleanliness of our workshop has reached the international A-level standard! I dare to say that there is no chip production workshop in China that is on the same level as ours, and our workshop is also first-class in the world! Everyone changed into dust-free overalls according to the requirements of the workshop, and Lin Qiangsheng introduced to Wanli and others.

"Oh? Director Yu Zhongyu, director of Wang Shoujue, let's take a look at what the world's first-class chip production workshop looks like! Wanli greeted the person and said.

When Yu Zhongyu arrived, he personally introduced to Lin Qiangsheng: "This is Comrade Yu Zhongyu, the director of the state-owned Dongguang Factory, and the Dongguang Factory has also put on a 3-inch production line this year. Speaking of which, they started work a little earlier than this semiconductor factory! ”

Yu Zhongyu was in his fifties, and when he saw that Lin Qiangsheng did not have the same emotion as a peer, he warmly held Lin Qiangsheng's hand and said, "Thank you, Mr. Lin, for giving us this opportunity to visit!" I brought a few comrades from the factory to visit your factory with me, sorry for you! ”

Lin Qiangsheng looked at the appearance of the people who came to the Dongguang Factory introduced by Yu Zhongyu as technicians in their forties, and looked at their mental energy, it is estimated that Yu Zhongyu has brought the most elite people in the factory to the factory, as if he intends to see everything here as if Lin Qiangsheng is in the light.

Lin Qiangsheng nodded with a smile and said, "It's okay, welcome, how much can you see!" Lin Qiangsheng doesn't care about this kind of peer snooping, and he has also spied on many foreign technologies in China, but there are few cases of leading anyone.

He took the visitors to start from the company's IC design factory: "This is our IC design department, you can see that each of our designers is equipped with a microcomputer for IC design, and this is also the training base for the company's IC designers!" ”

Wanli and his party entered a large workshop with bright lights and exceptionally clean lights, there were twenty or thirty staff members here, and it is worth noting that there were four or five foreigners, and the visitors were shocked that everyone had an independent microcomputer to operate, and these were designers!

You must know that the research department in China is heavy on theory and light on technology, and the design department is even less important. In many research institutes, designers are still doing a lot of hand-drawing work, and if they want to use a computer, they have to apply in advance. Designers are not even as good as computer room administrators, not only do they earn as much as others, but they also have to beg others at critical times!

But what did these people who knew the inside story see here in Lin Qiangsheng, it was actually the entire clean workshop equivalent to the state-owned Dongguang Factory, which was only used for IC design! It's unbelievable that the circuit designers of their Dongguang factory are still crammed into a room of less than 20 square meters, circling around a computer all day long!

"Do you still have foreigners working here? Not afraid to divulge technical secrets? Wang Shoujue asked Lin Qiangsheng puzzled.

They walked up to a designer, who was a blonde foreign woman with glasses.

"This is my company hired circuit designers abroad, in the domestic circuit design talent is extremely lacking, and most of such people are in the hands of the state, in order to develop our company has to hire IC designers abroad with high salaries, these foreign designers also lead the domestic personnel to develop products, so that they can master the skills as soon as possible. Our company will also set up IC design research institutes in Seattle and Silicon Valley in the United States to provide foreign intelligence for the development of the company! ”

"This is Protel circuit design software, which can be used to design circuits on a computer!" An engineer and technician from the Dongguang plant said in surprise.

"I saw it in a foreign journal, and I applied to my superiors to buy it, but the price of a set of software was as high as $1,200!" He introduced it to his colleagues.

"It seems like every computer here has a set of software like this!" The colleague whispered to him, pointing to more than thirty computers. I saw that the above is all this kind of software, and the operator is proficient in using it. This kind of circuit design software allows designers to put aside tedious and time-consuming manual drawing, and makes circuit design more efficient than many times!

"I can't imagine that we have such a design environment in China, I thought that such a scene could only appear abroad!" The two sighed. (To be continued......)
