Chapter 45 The Death of Domestic EDA
Since Li Jianfang came back, the recruitment banner hanging at the door has never been taken down.
In June, many people came to the office building one after another.
Entering the summer, the school's senior students are about to graduate and enter the society, although every student can get an assignment when they go out, but the deeds of going to the sea in the past two years are not uncommon, and many people want to see the situation outside first.
In this context, Shengshi Communication has also absorbed a group of senior students who are about to graduate.
Now the main body of Li Jianfang's team, except for a few technicians he personally recruited, the others are these students who are preparing to enter the society.
"I deliberately went to various places to find out, and now there are indeed many enterprises facing bankruptcy and reorganization, but these companies are facing the situation of rigid employees, if you start rashly, I am afraid that it will be difficult to manage in the future."
Yuan Liang is relatively clear about this, "Now all localities are actively dealing with the problem of bankrupt enterprises, and many operators who increase capital and invest in shares choose the method of re-recruitment, the purpose is to break the original rigid management model of various enterprises, which is a direction that can be referenced."
But for the R&D department, my advice is to start as soon as you can. The 35th factory you went to this time, although they used to copy the technology of other factories, why did Haiyan, workers, peasants and soldiers, and Chunlei all fall, but they are still alive? β
Although Yuan Liang did not have an in-depth understanding of Factory 35, it is a miracle that Factory 35 can survive by going to the sinking market now that the recorder is facing the impact of electronic products such as home appliances and walkmans.
Li Jianfang nodded, "Although the radio R&D department of Factory 35 has not made any breakthroughs in technology, their new batch of tape recorders are still very popular. I'll pay attention to what you said, but the problem is still mainly with them.
In order to survive, they had previously issued their own internal bonds. Now that part of the bonds is as high as more than 20 million, far exceeding the value of the 35th factory itself, many investors just took a look at it, and then turned around and left.
Many of the employees of Factory 35 couldn't be hired because they had bonds in their hands and didn't want to let go. β
Intra-enterprise bonds, to put it bluntly, are a way of internal fund-raising, which were issued by many state-owned enterprises in the early 90s. But now it has become the heaviest burden for these companies who want to travel light.
Yuan Liang rubbed his head and thought about it for a while before saying, "The conditions of Factory 35 are good, but the burden is too heavy, and sooner or later it will drag us down." You keep in touch first, focus on their workers who know the circuit, and dig one by one, and then we will buy a piece of land and build a factory by ourselves. But don't block the road, everything will wait for me to come back from the US imperialists. β
Li Jianfang nodded, and then talked about the VCD R&D team.
The VCD process is not complicated, it is a set of MPEG image compression to optical disc technology, and then through the head to read and play a complete set of technology.
In the current environment, circuit boards can be welded manually, VCD circuit boards can actually have results as long as a few workers who understand the circuit can study for a period of time.
"We can't always take the traditional circuit design way, now many foreign companies have put the design on the software, and the circuit diagram that can pass the test on the software has a great success rate of tape-out.
This is one of our future directions, which is why I asked you to recruit a group of students from the school to make up for the shortcomings of those circuit design workers. β
Yuan Liang just pointed to Li Jianfang in a general direction, but did not talk carefully with Li Jianfang, many issues, Li Jianfang has not yet been able to touch.
After communicating with Li Jianfang, Yuan Liang called Yang Zhilong to the office building of the School of Electronic Information.
"Teacher Fu, excuse me, we have a question I want to consult with you!"
When he came to Fu Xiangdong's office, Fu Xiangdong enthusiastically poured a glass of water for the two.
"What's the matter?"
"We want to buy a more suitable ICCAD design software, I don't know if Mr. Fu has any recommendations in this regard?" Yes, at this time, EDA was still called ICCAD, a synonym for integrated circuit design software.
βICCADοΌ You're talking about circuit design software, what do you buy this for? Fu Xiangdong looked puzzled.
"We also have a project related to integrated circuit design, and we have also recruited some workers in some previous radio factories, but these workers are all using paper and pen to complete the circuit design, and there is a big lack of work efficiency, so I came to consult Mr. Xiafu."
"You still make integrated circuits? I didn't expect you to have a lot of projects.,The panda ICCAD system pushed out by Qinghua at the beginning of last year is very good.,You can go and get in touch.γ β
"I understand that this ICCAD system has not long been launched by Qinghua, and foreign ICCAD design software has given up the blockade of domestic technology and has entered the domestic market.
The Panda ICCAD system has just entered the market, and there are still many deficiencies, and now there is no very good evaluation in the market. We haven't used it before, so we don't know exactly what it can do, so we still tend to buy a mature software that has been tested in the market. β
Yuan Liang is too clear about the domestic EDA software, before Qinghua's Panda ICCAD system came out, due to the eight-cylinder embargo regulations, foreign EDA software to the domestic market is a blockade posture.
Panda ICCAD system can be said to have broken the embargo of the international EDA system in China.
But this has also brought a catastrophe to the domestic ICCAD design software.
Foreign giants are coming, Panda ICCAD system has not been tested by the market, is not at all the opponent of international giants such as Synopsys and Kaideng, coupled with the need for EDA software to have a cutting-edge chip manufacturing supply chain as a propeller for upgrading, Panda ICCAD system finally failed.
Panda ICCAD system has the support of dozens of colleges and universities across the country and has failed, the blow to the domestic EDA software can be said to be unprecedented, and the domestic EDA design software ushered in more than ten years of dark moments.
It was not until 2009 that Liu Weiping, the main participant of the Panda ICCAD system, led the former Huada Electronics EDA Division to formally establish Huada Jiutian, and the domestic EDA gradually gained a place in the domestic and foreign markets.
"I don't know much about foreign EDA software, and I can't recommend it to you, you wait, I'll see if Mr. Zhou, who majored in electronic engineering, is not there."
Fu Xiangdong walked out of the office as he spoke, but Yang Zhilong on the side looked at Yuan Liang with some curiosity.
Before coming, Yuan Liang just said that there was something to do with Fu Xiangdong, but Yang Zhilong didn't expect that Yuan Liang's problem was not even clear to Fu Xiangdong.
Although Yuan Liang does not know anything about the technology of software programs, he knows more about the software market at home and abroad than many people, which makes him a little more confident in the financial software he is programming.
