In October, the temperature in Shanghai was suitable, the Bund was picturesque, Gu Cancan looked at the bright lights outside the window, and silently recalled the news about domestic chips before she was reborn.

At that time, as a literary and artistic young man who was a Buddhist man, Gu Cancan didn't pay much attention to high-tech things, and only occasionally saw relevant reports when he was on the news.

But she also knows that there will be a breakthrough in domestic chips in the future, and Warwick's HiSilicon is an independent product with complete intellectual property rights. There is also Loongson, but this one seems to listen to something like that, so in Gu Cancan's concept, the one who made the chip is Warwick's HiSilicon.

But with so many related companies in Huaxia, it is impossible that only Huawei is engaged in chips, but in the end, the domestic mobile phone chips that came out seem to be HiSilicon.

Investing in chips, the amount is at least 10 billion, and it is rare for Mango Technology to have this ambition, but it is also very difficult to do it.

Gu Cancan moved his gaze back to Qu Hongyu's face, and said slowly: "To make chips, this is a very difficult thing, I don't know the doorway, as far as I know, the relevant patents are in the hands of Western countries, if we want to do it ourselves, do we have to re-architect?" ”

She frowned, trying to recall the corresponding reports about domestic chips that she had seen in the original time and space,

"yes, to be honest, there's a lot of resistance." Qu Hongyu stretched out his hand and rubbed his brows, and said with some distress: "The overall technical strength of our Huaxia is lower than that of the United States, but after decades of reform and opening up, we have also laid a considerable foundation and accumulated strength. If today's Huaxia is determined to overcome a difficult problem, it is usually able to do so. The problem is that we are in the midst of globalization, which offers cheaper solutions to problems, which is convenient, but it also breeds inertia. When it is easier and cheaper to buy chips than to produce them in-house, a market orientation is created and the dependence on external technology is solidified. Now there is a lot of opposition within the group, including my mother, who is also hesitating, this investment involves not only money, but also the direction of mango's development. ”

Gu Cancan unexpectedly remembered Xiaomi and Huawei in the original time and space.

Xiaomi has activated a huge demand market for smartphones, and Huawei has a deep technical background. In Gu Cancan's view, the hegemony of Huaxia's smart phone market will only emerge from the two, and in fact, in 2018, when she was reborn, the victory and defeat have basically been divided, and Huawei's domestic market share is the first. After the trade war, the special spectrum stuck the neck of high-end products, including chips, I don't know if it will force the development of domestic chip technology.

"If mango is used as a chip, it may take at least ten years of pure investment." Qu Hongyu half-tilted his head and said faintly: "The application of chips is too wide, mobile phones, computers, and even artificial intelligence ......, in short, this thing is indispensable in electronic devices, and it involves so many patents that ordinary people can't imagine." ”

Gu Cancan pursed his lips, it is true, chips are the core technical category of integrated circuits. The investment is huge, and it is likely to fail.

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Cancan still said: "Huawei, Shenzhen, do you know Qu Hongyu?" ”

HiSilicon succeeded, but it is impossible that there are no other participants in this field, but it is likely that they all failed, and the failed participants did not even have a chance to appear in front of the public.

Huawei succeeded, Gu Cancan mentioned Huawei, if he wanted Mango Technology to be possible, it was best to learn more about Huawei to understand the relevant information, including what kind of attitude the top building is.

In just one sentence, Qu Hongyu understood what Gu Cancan meant.

His mood became happy, Gu Cancan still cared about him a little, and couldn't help but smile and said: "I understand, Huawei we have understood, I know that they are also doing similar things, and Huawei is also a great company." ”

"Warwick is also making chips, right?" Since he wanted to tell Qu Hongyu, Gu Cancan simply explained what he said.

Qu Hongyu smiled and said, "Cancan, you may not know much about the concept of domestic chips. The chip industry or the integrated circuit industry is much richer than everyone thinks. Chips aren't just CPUs, GPUs, or NPUs. Like DRAM, LED, photovoltaics, headphones, fingerprint recognition, refrigerators, TVs, elevators, etc., chips of different sizes and functions will be used. ”

Gu Cancan felt two plates of mosquito coils appear in his eyes, these terms sounded so complicated.

She shook her head honestly and said, "I really don't understand. ”

Qu Hongyu said with great interest: "There is a company called TI, and this chip company has designed tens of thousands of chips. Not every electronic product needs a "strong computer heart from Intel". Not every chip needs to use a 10nm process. ”

"What does that mean?" Gu Cancan asked blankly.

"In fact, our Chinese officials have long been very aware of the importance of the chip industry to the national economy, and also see the necessity of developing independent chips, as early as the 90s, there were support policies to develop China's chip industry." Qu Hongyu said.

This was something that Gu Cancan didn't know, and she listened carefully to Qu Hongyu's words.

"It's just that the government officials involved in charge lack knowledge of the industry, a lot of money is wasted, and the effect is very poor. Not to mention the unprofitable investment, there have been many scandals suspected of fraud. ”

Gu Cancan thought of Hanxin's scandal and couldn't help but sigh deeply.

Qu Hongyu continued: "Although Shanghai Huahong, SMIC, Hongli, etc. are not good from the perspective of business investment, they have not spent their money in vain. With the hype of the strategic significance of chips in recent years and the investment enthusiasm of local governments, it is said that there are now hundreds of integrated circuit production lines in China. ”

"Huh? Has the domestic core industry invested so much? "Gu Cancan thinks, according to my memory, I don't seem to have heard of this news.

Qu Hongyu sneered: "These hundreds of billions of silver have been scattered, but it has nothing to do with the realization of the strategic goal of independent chips." Because the semiconductor production plant was transferred out of the United States as early as 30 years ago, to Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea and other places. Where is the strategic value of these hundreds of billions of dollars thrown down just to grab business with the little brothers in Asia? ”

I didn't understand it, Gu Cancan felt the anger in Qu Hongyu's tone, but he didn't expect Qu Hongyu to be an angry young man.

"For the chip industry, we still have a lot of markets. And we still have some achievements in some aspects, such as the current mining machine, Goodix's fingerprint recognition, Cambrian NPU and so on. But it has to be said that there is still a big gap in key areas like communications, servers, storage, etc. Moreover, in the entire integrated circuit industry chain, some of this gap is a matter of 0 and 1, and some is a gap between 1 and 100, 1 and 10,000. For example, lithography machine, some people say that it is because we don't have it, but SMIC has long had 28nm process equipment but has never been able to produce chips with a yield rate of TSMC, so in the integrated circuit industry, we have a gap from raw materials to equipment, from equipment to manufacturing. This requires the efforts of our generation, and if we don't work hard now, we will only get worse in the future. ”

"You're talking too professionally...... so Mango is sure to make chips?" Gu Cancan was a little embarrassed, she lacked knowledge in this area, what Qu Hongyu said involved some professional things, she didn't understand it very well, but she understood the meaning of Qu Hongyu's words, Qu Hongyu had made up her mind to let Mango do the chip industry.

"There are some things that you still have to do with your best." Qu Hongyu said slowly: "Mango Technology can be said to be very successful, no matter what industry the profitability is compared with, it is also the top level, as far as the valuation of Mango Technology is concerned, I will not be able to spend it in my life." It's just that being born as a human being and being supposed to make something of a difference, it's not a big deal to make some money, my dream. ”

His body leaned forward, looked at Gu Cancan with a bright look, and said seriously: "I want to try to do a good job in the industry that no one in China has yet made." ”

Gu Cancan suddenly remembered Mr. Lu Xun's words: Since ancient times, we have had people who worked hard, people who worked hard, people who asked for their lives for the people, and people who sacrificed their lives to seek the law,...... Although it is equivalent to the so-called "official history" of the genealogy of the emperors and generals, it often cannot hide their glory, which is the backbone of China.

At this moment, Gu Cancan was deeply shocked. She was reborn, and she was able to use the advantage of her foresight to earn money Gu Cancance really felt that there was nothing to be proud of, but if someone could do something that might not be possible even if she was reborn, it would be really amazing.

Gu Cancan gave Qu Hongyu a few heartfelt applause.

Qu Hongyu was a little embarrassed, touched his head, smiled and said: "After all, I'm still young, I was allowed to fail when I was young, and if I failed, it was a big deal to start over." In fact, I just want to talk to you today, to be honest, I am really under a lot of pressure during this time, and I want to talk to you when I know that you are here in Shanghai. ”

In the field of science and technology, Gu Cancan didn't plan to get involved, but there was someone he knew who wanted to work hard to make chips, and Gu Cancan felt a little honored about this, so he picked up the teacup and smiled at Qu Hongyu: "Don't say anything else, I'll replace the wine with tea, I wish you success!" ”

Qu Hongyu looked at Gu Cancan's almost perfect face and smiled genuinely happily.

Although Gu Cancan didn't know some knowledge, she was a good listener, Qu Hongyu told her the troubles in her heart, and the depression in her heart was also reduced a lot.

After tasting black tea and desserts, and chatting with Qu Hongyu for a while, Gu Cancan ran back and forth in the capital of Shanghai, and he was also very tired, and yawned a lot.

Qu Hongyu thoughtfully stopped talking and sent Gu Cancan back to the play, and she stayed in a hotel near the play.

Walking out of the POP American Brasserie, Gu Cancan couldn't help but hug her arms, at night in Shanghai in October, the sky was already a little cold, and she was wearing a little less.

Qu Hongyu had the intention to put on a dress for Gu Cancan, but what he wore was a shirt himself......

Fortunately, Shi Lei quickly drove the car over, and when he got into the car, Gu Cancan found out out that someone seemed to be taking a camera here on the street corner, and his movements stopped slightly.

"What's wrong?" Qu Hongyu, who was beside him, asked.

Looking over again, there was no one over there, Gu Cancan lowered his head and got into the car and said, "It's nothing, it feels like someone was secretly filming just now." ”。

Qu Hongyu also got into the car and sat next to Gu Cancan, thought for a while and said, "The media in Shanghai should all sell mangoes for a face, I'll let people say hello." ”

"Hmm." Gu Cancan doesn't want to cause more trouble, Mango Technology is a local snake, and it would be best if he could nip things in the bud.

……

The next day, there was a slight drizzle in Shanghai, and the air was cold.

It was just after eight o'clock, and there were already several students in the small auditorium.

"Zhao Ji, Li Jinming, are you here so early?" Chen He greeted warmly.

"It's not too late for you." Li Jinming has a lively personality and rushes to speak in response.

Zhao Ji usually doesn't talk much, so he didn't speak at the moment, and smiled at them gently.

Those who came with Chen He were Zheng Kai, Wang Chuanjun and others.

Several people are in a class, and they are usually very familiar with each other, and they soon chatted warmly.

Li Jinming suddenly said mysteriously: "Hey, did you watch the news this morning?" ”

"What's the news?" Zheng Kai asked suspiciously.

Zhao Ji gently pulled Li Jinming.

Chen He noticed the anxious little movement and said with a smile: "What's the matter, Zhao Ji, is there anything you can't say?" We're all in the same class, so there's nothing you can't say. ”

Several people at the scene were all in the same class, and it was precisely because of this that Li Jinming didn't care.

She patted Zhao Ji's hand comfortingly and whispered, "It's okay, this is not a secret, everyone will know soon." ”

Zhao Ji shrugged helplessly and said no more.

"You don't know yet, this morning, some media broke the news," Li Jinming lowered his voice: "Gu Cancan will be a mysterious man at night." ”

Her words seemed to throw a small bomb to Chen He, and several people looked at each other with stunned expressions.

"I'll go, where did you see this news?"

Li Jinming said: "A Weibo dedicated to breaking the news, this Weibo has not been around for a long time, but it has already broken several stars, although the object is not particularly famous, but it has proved the strength of this Weibo." Now this Weibo has hundreds of thousands of followers. ”

Zhao Ji added next to him: "There are already 400,000 people paying attention. ”

"Well, 400,000 people have followed, and I think this Weibo will soon become a big V." Li Jinming said.

Zheng Kai frowned and said, "This doesn't prove that what they said must be true." Besides, whether it's true or not has nothing to do with us directly. It's better not to spread this kind of news casually. ”

"How can there be a rumor, isn't it just for you? Besides, there is already an entertainment page reprinting the news of this Weibo. ”

Chen He saw that no one else was coming, and smiled with a smile: "What is the specific content?" ”

"See for yourself." Li Jinming stuffed her phone to Chen He.

No matter who has a gossip mentality, Chen He held his mobile phone, and Wang Chuanjun and Zheng Kai came over to watch.

On the mobile phone is the personal homepage of Weibo, and they see that this Weibo is called "Tianyan Chen Luwei...... Senior media person".

And the latest one on this Weibo is about Gu Cancan.
