Chapter 185: Return to China next week

"What did you just say? Chips?" Director Zhang vaguely heard this word, and immediately stared at Chen Jie and said.

"Yes, our main project now is a development chip, which is high-tech enough, right?" Chen Jie didn't hide it and said it directly.

"You're still working on chips? Do you have lithography machines? And how to design a chip, the difficulty in this, even the experts of the Chinese Academy of Sciences can't come up with a good solution."

Director Zhang has heard a little about the difficulties and obstacles of the semiconductor industry.

He knows that this industry is very money-burning, so there are no institutions in China that will focus on this.

What's more, at present, Huaxia is not in great demand for semiconductors.

So people are more of an indifferent attitude, and they don't have that sense of urgency.

A small amount of needs can be solved by relying on imports.

But Chen Jie is different, through his communication with Chen Weidong, he knows that with the development of the computer industry and informatization, chips will become more and more important.

So now is the time to plan ahead.

Chen Jie said: "Of course we have a lithography machine, and as for the design method, Professor Kruger is already working on it."

"You're talking about the lithography machine you got back earlier?"

Director Zhang smiled, he had also seen the lithography machine that the island country got back, and the accuracy could only be said to be average.

It is indeed enough to make some ordinary chips, but there is still a big gap if you want to meet the accuracy standards of Western countries.

However, since Chen Jie has this enthusiasm for scientific research, he is embarrassed to attack.

After thinking about it, he still said: "Regarding the chip you mentioned, it is indeed difficult to find researchers in this area, but there is a company that should have the person you want."

Chen Jie was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, "Which company?"

"Lenovo."

Director Zhang said two words softly.

"Good guys, aren't they selling computers? How can there be researchers in this area?"

Chen Jie was taken aback, he had bought Lenovo shares before, and of course he had some understanding of their company's fundamentals.

In his impression, Lenovo sells computers, and has a technical foundation, but it should not be high, but he didn't expect to have the foresight to engage in chips.

"Yes before, but now it's gone, don't you even read the newspaper?"

Director Zhang looked at him with some surprise, the recent expulsion of Ni Guangnan from Lenovo Group was in an uproar, and Chen Jie didn't know it.

"There have been so many things in the company lately, how can I have time to care about this." Chen Jie was a little embarrassed, and didn't want to be told that he didn't know how to learn, so he simply made an excuse.

Director Zhang nodded, didn't dwell on this anymore, and then roughly explained what happened to Lenovo Group recently.

"Ni Guangnan, but the first batch of academicians of the Academy of Engineering, is still a computer expert, if you can win him over, it will definitely be of great help to the research work."

"Is it that powerful? It's still an academician?!"

Chen Jie knows that "Academician" is the highest bachelor's title in science and technology established by Huaxia.

It is divided into the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering.

Academicians are co-opted every two years, with a total of no more than 60 people each time, and each of them is a well-known figure in a certain discipline.

It is also an authority in the industry, with the right to speak and priority in many fields.

At the same time, it is also a prerequisite for many enterprises and scientific research institutions to carry out some major projects, and the projects cannot be started without academicians.

In universities, it is not uncommon for an academician to prop up a department.

Director Zhang suddenly became a little serious and said: "Of course it is very powerful, the previous computer used ASCII code, and could not input Chinese, it took Ni Guangnan and others sixteen years to develop the Chinese character input method to solve this problem."

"Later, in order to improve efficiency and reduce the frequent access to memory during the input of Chinese characters, they developed the Lenovo Hanka."

"This is a combination of software and hardware technology, using hardware chips with special software to solve the problem of Chinese character input."

"For example, when using Lenovo Hanka, the operator typed out the word 'eat', and the screen would automatically pop up a series of phrases such as 'eat' and 'surprised'."

"You may not be surprised now, but it was a great achievement in the past, and that's how the name Lenovo came about."

"In the market at that time, Lenovo Hanka was not only a monopoly product, but also a scarce product, and they were the only ones in the country."

"A Hanka sells for 4,000 yuan, and the cost is less than 1,000 yuan."

"It was 1985."

"In less than two years, the output value of Lenovo Hanka has approached 100 million yuan, which has helped Lenovo achieve capital accumulation and made Lenovo stand out from many enterprises in Zhongguancun."

"Otherwise, can he, Liu Chuanzhi, talk and laugh in Zhongguancun now?"

Director Zhang's words made Chen Jie gain a lot of knowledge, he didn't expect this kind of relationship, but he couldn't help but sigh a little when he thought that Ni Guangnan was swept away by Lenovo now.

At this moment, he suddenly stood up and said categorically, "This person, we have to decide!"

No matter from what point of view, this is a talent they urgently need, and with the company's current situation, it can only be said that someone doze off and send a pillow.

"You put away the roster first, I'll go to Baijing in person tomorrow, and I'll pick someone when I come back."

Chen Jie made a decision immediately.

Now he is doing things, and he is also a little in a hurry, and what he is determined to do, he will carry it out immediately, and he will definitely not procrastinate.

This made Lin Zeju a little impressed by him.

Director Zhang took a deep look at him and said, "Okay! I'll get in touch in a moment and arrange for you to meet as soon as possible!"

Chen Jie poured the tea on the table into his throat in one gulp: "Then I'll wait for your good news, let's go to the company's affairs first."

After speaking, Lin Zeju also stood up and prepared to return to the company with a few polite words.

"Wait, did you ask Xiao Chen, when will you return to China?" Director Zhang patted his head and suddenly thought of this.

I always say that I will return to China next week, it's been almost a month, and I haven't come back from the island country, so I can't really indulge in gentle township, and I can't miss it, right?

Young people, self-control is poor.

Director Zhang told him very solemnly and asked him to go back and urge him again, saying that he had important things to discuss with Chen Weidong when he came back.

"Okay, I'll rush him."

Chen Jie had no choice but to deal with a few casual words, and then drove back to the company quickly with Lin Zeju.

It's just that halfway through, he asked Lin Zeju to go back first, and he drove a detour to the infinity computer building on Yuehai Avenue and Haitong Securities opposite.

Everything was in plain sight, and he walked briskly to an office door and pushed it in.
