Chapter 188: You Don't Understand Chips
Chen Jie threw his luggage to Li Yun, stood on the side of the road and waved his hand, shouting loudly: "Rent!" Hire! Come over here! ”
His voice attracted many people on the platform, and they all turned their heads to see which nouveau riche with a lot of money, who was not afraid of being slaughtered, and went to take a high-priced taxi.
All faces, all aimed in the direction in which he was standing.
"Chen Jie?!"
Suddenly, a girl in the crowd shouted in a trembling voice.
More people subconsciously looked over, and sure enough, they found that this young man was a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't call it for a while.
"Master! Come on! ”
Chen Jie got into the car in one go, Lin Zeju also realized something, and hurriedly followed, the old driver stepped on the accelerator and walked away.
Leaving Li Yun and the others behind, standing messy in the wind.
The road surface in the capital is very smooth, especially the main roads, which are very wide, with more than eight lanes.
Chen Jie looked at the cars on the road through the car window, which was much more than that in South China, but after some observation, he found that most of these cars were foreign cars.
Among them, Japanese cars are the mainstay, and there are also a small number of European and American cars, which are almost equivalent to the old-fashioned Hongqi sedans, and the appearance is dark and tall, which is especially conspicuous when passing through the streets with few vehicles.
The old driver's posture is superb, and the taxi drives fast, catching up all the way.
From time to time, you can see a high-end car passing by them, with a black diplomatic license plate hanging on it, proving that they are the exclusive vehicle of other countries, embassies or foreign-funded enterprises.
In this era, they all enjoy diplomatic immunity.
Lin Zeju looked at the scenery outside the window, suddenly remembered something, and said, "Do you want to contact Academician Ni first?" ”
"No, Director Zhang has already contacted him, let's just go to him directly."
Chen Jie shook his head, took out a note from his pocket, and showed the address on it to the driver.
Meanwhile.
In a residence near Zhongguancun, a middle-aged man is communicating with Ni Guangnan about the current computer industry and chips.
Even though he has now been swept away by Lenovo, he is still persistent in domestic chips.
In addition, he also understands that chip research and development must be supported by business, otherwise relying on a small amount of funding above is a drop in the bucket.
The early investment in semiconductors is a bottomless pit, and there is no short-term benefit, and no scientific research institution in China has such courage.
It was at this time that a man found him.
This person's name is Li Delei, who was once a graduate student at the Institute of Computer Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and met Ni Guangnan by chance.
Li Delei is in charge of BBT (the predecessor of Ark Technology), which contracts the outsourcing business of Hitachi chips, and has a technical team that researches chips.
After hearing the news that Ni Guangnan had been relieved of his position at Lenovo, he immediately found Ni Guangnan.
In his eyes, Ni Guangnan's connections and technical resources are undoubtedly a piece of coveted fat.
The academic circle, in fact, is very small, basically a little bit of wind and grass, everyone knows it, and the relationship between teachers and students is very close.
If your mentor says there's a project and asks you to help with it, do you dare say no?
Not to mention being an academician.
Many of the young researchers in the institute are his students.
The reason why Li Delei came to the door this time was mainly because Hitachi Group suddenly announced that it would stop outsourcing all projects to BBT, including Hitachi's chip outsourcing business.
He was really panicked, the company could not create profits without orders, not to mention that a company like theirs, which survived by taking over outsourcing business, was too dependent on upstream developers.
Therefore, he also thought of taking the path of independent research and development, and wanted to master chip technology by himself, after all, the market in Huaxia still has great potential.
At this time, the chips basically rely on imports.
Ni Guangnan has been immersed in the research laboratory all year round, and like many scientific researchers, he is very simple in human feelings, and he believes that this technical team of BBT can bring dawn to Huaxia chips.
After some exchanges, he stood up with some excitement, ready to officially accept Li Delei's invitation to join BBT.
However, at this time, the doorbell suddenly rang at home.
"Mr. Li, I'll open the door, we'll talk later." Ni Guangnan smiled apologetically and walked towards the door.
was suddenly interrupted at the critical moment, although Li Delei was a little unhappy in his heart, he still didn't show it on his face, just nodded slightly.
Ni Guangnan opened the door and found four or five people standing at the door, carrying large bags and small bags in their hands, a bunch of things, which really startled him.
The young man at the head stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. Ni, I have been looking up for a long time, my name is Chen Jie, and I was introduced by Director Zhang!" ”
"I see, I remembered, there is such a thing, I didn't expect you to come here so early."
Ni Guangnan was stunned for a moment, someone did contact him two days ago, saying that he wanted to talk about chips.
But now that he's ready to join BBT, it's a bit embarrassing.
But since others came all the way, he was embarrassed to turn him away, so he could only beckon Chen Jie and the others to come in.
When Li Delei saw Chen Jie, he felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a while, so he didn't take it seriously.
After all, with Ni Guangnan's identity, it is normal for someone to visit.
After the group sat down, Chen Jie didn't talk nonsense, and said straight to the point: "Mr. Ni, I came this time just to hope that you can join our company and develop domestic chips together!" ”
His tone was very sincere, and he thought that the other party would at least show a hint of interest, if not immediately, but unfortunately, there was none.
The living room was quiet.
More than ten seconds later.
Ni Guangnan explained with some embarrassment: "Mr. Chen, I'm sorry, just now, I was ready to join Mr. Li's BBT company to conduct chip research and development business, so."
What?
Chen Jie was dumbfounded, he came a little late, and he was cut off?
As soon as they got off the plane, they went straight to Zhongguancun, they didn't eat, and they went to the mall to buy a lot of things, and they rushed over in a hurry.
Now tell him that he has joined someone else's company.
Who can stand this?
"Mr. Ni, our Infinity Company is very sincere, and we are willing to invest no less than $1 billion a year to develop our own domestic chips, don't you think about it anymore?" Lin Zeju next to him couldn't help but ask.
Infinity Inc.?
When Li Delei heard these words, he was shocked.
This is a real big capital, no wonder I began to feel that the leading young man was a little familiar, it turned out to be Chen Jie.
They say that they invest one billion dollars a year in research and development, of course, no one will think they are bragging, you must know that now infinity companies, according to estimates, have a cash flow of at least more than 200 billion Hong Kong dollars.
There is no place to spend a lot of money, so what is the point of spending this money on chips?
In such a giant company, no one can resist the temptation of the senior management to personally send out invitations.
Sure enough, Ni Guangnan was also tempted, he often read computer-related magazines, news, and of course knew the strength of Infinity Company.
If there is their support, there is indeed hope for domestic chips.
However, at this moment, Li Delei suddenly said: "Mr. Chen, I heard that you only have a high school degree, do you know what a chip is?" ”
