After knocking on the production line, Kangchi suddenly became idle.

Daqin Optics has entered a relatively stable stage of development, and he basically doesn't need to worry too much.

Now we just need to wait for the first production line to be fully upgraded before we can consider the next layout.

So naturally, he set his sights back on the graphics card.

The layout of the chip, in addition to not being accustomed to the group of graphics card sellers, is also paving the way for future cameras.

And even more than just the camera,

Of all the electrified things now, which one can do without the chip?

Kangchi also knows that chips are not easy to make, but just like building cameras, although it seems far away at present, as long as you start from the most basic links, step by step, one day everything will fall into place.

Last time, I sent an email to the Institute of Microelectronics of Sioux University, but it turned out to be a waste of time and I never got a reply.

There is no follow-up from the University of Suzhou Province, and Kangchi can't wait, so he can only consider other methods.

Do you want to assemble it?

As long as you have made or repaired the item, you have a system panel.

But what exactly is this definition of manufacturing?

Assembly is also a kind of manufacturing,

It's just that it belongs to the foundry that has not mastered the core technology.

With the mentality of giving it a try, Kangchi bought a bunch of graphics card parts from the Internet and tried to solder and assemble a piece himself.

The result panel is out,

But there is no option to upgrade and resolve.

This is clearly a failure.

"It seems that opportunistic means of assembling it will not work."

From this, Kangchi speculates:

The manufacturing of the system definition does not require every screw to be made by itself.

However, the manufacturer must have mastered the core technology of the item and have a high level of manufacturing participation.

For example, in the production line of lenses, in fact, Kangchi also uses a lot of ready-made parts, which can be regarded as semi-assembled goods, but the result is that it can be upgraded.

And this time the graphics card is not good, because he is just doing simple splicing, and the core technology in it is not mastered.

After trying to assemble it, Kangchi finally decided to go to the University of Sioux Province in person.

-----------------

"It's better to go to college!"

Walking on the campus of Sioux University, Kangchi watched the young and energetic college students come and go, and felt that he was a lot younger.

Well......

He seems to be very young in the first place.

After asking for directions a few times, Kangchi finally found the Microelectronics Research Institute.

This research institute, which is affiliated with the University of Sioux Province, is located not far from the building of the Institute of Microelectronics, which from the outside looks like an ordinary teaching building.

"Which college is my classmate?"

As soon as Kang Chi walked into the door, the security guard sitting at the door immediately stopped him.

"Uh, hello, I want to find Academician Wu."

"I asked you which college, did you bring your student ID? Have you reported in advance? If you don't report it, you can't get in, even if you look for the principal. ”

"I sent an email in advance."

"Send an email?"

The security guard suddenly glanced at Kang Chi vigilantly,

"You're not a student at our school?"

"It's not." Kangchi replied honestly.

The security guard's vigilance was suddenly full.

"Don't move, wait a minute."

He immediately made a phone call, and his eyes never took off Kangchi during the call.

After about five minutes, Wang Haowen, who received the call, finally walked out of the research institute.

"Are you looking for Academician Wu?" After Wang Haowen saw Kang Chi, he first looked him up and down to confirm that he didn't seem to have seen it.

Kangchi nodded.

Wang Haowen asked a little strangely: "What is the matter with him, have you made an appointment in advance?" ”

In the face of Wang Haowen's three consecutive questions, Kang Chi did not answer any of them, but asked rhetorically: "May I ask who you are?" ”

"Wang Haowen, a doctoral student who followed Academician Wu."

Kang Chi nodded: "Hello Dr. Wang, I am Kang Chi, the boss of Longteng Technology, our company has a project that I want to cooperate with your research institute, and I have sent an email before, I don't know if you have received ......"

After listening to Kangchi's introduction, Wang Haowen immediately remembered,

It seems that there is such a thing!

Then he had a strange expression.

This man......

Nothing wrong with it, right?

Just send an email to prank, and run to find someone in person?

"Ahem, hello Mr. Kang...... Academician Wu went to Yanjing to hold an academic conference, if there is anything you can tell me, well, it's not convenient here, otherwise let's go for a walk outside? ”

Kangchi immediately nodded.

He will find the Institute of Microelectronics of Sioux University, entirely because he has a black eye in the field of semiconductors, and he has no guide to know, so he can only find a research institution that seems to be quite reliable to try.

Even if you can't reach cooperation, it is not a loss to know one or two practitioners in related industries and learn more about the industry.

This Wang Haowen is very in line with Kangchi's standards.

Two men, one is a science and engineering man, and the other is a tech nerd, and they are not very good at words.

The two of them walked more than 100 meters with ghosts in their hearts, and they didn't say a word.

The atmosphere was a little awkward.

In the end, Kangchi couldn't help but ask, "That...... You've received the email, right? ”

"Roger." Wang Haowen was also direct, "It just so happened that I was in charge of email issuance, but I thought it was just a prank, so I ignored it directly, so I ...... You can't be serious, right? ”

"What, can't you?"

“……”

Wang Haowen glanced at Kang Chi a little speechlessly: "It seems that you don't know anything about semiconductors, do you know how much scientific research funds are burned every year in this seemingly ordinary research institute?" ”

"How much?"

"3 billion!"

"Every day, more than eight million dollars are burning, and you want to borrow our equipment to make a 2D acceleration card that can't even be called a graphics card......"

"With all due respect, only a real layman would have this idea of hitting mosquitoes with a cannon."

3 billion?

An academy's laboratory burns 3 billion a year?

Kangchi was also surprised when he heard this.

He remembered that the sum of more than a dozen colleges in his former alma mater seemed to be only 4 billion scientific research funds, and it was also a 211 key university.

And at Sioux University, almost one college burned down......

can only say that it has to be 985!

In fact, looking for help from the University of Suzhou Province, Kang Chi had the intention of trying his luck from the beginning, but now after listening to Wang Haowen's words, Kang Chi found that this was not luck, it was simply buying lottery tickets.

It's a little embarrassing......

"Ahem, I'm sorry, I thought it was too simple." Kangchi graciously admitted his mistake and asked, "Where do you think I should go to find mosquito hunting...... Cannons? ”

"Some low-end integrated circuit factories should be able to meet your needs."

Wang Haowen said, hesitated again,

"But you just build a piece, and you have to make it yourself...... I don't think people may care about you, but is this your company's business, or your personal interests? ”

"Personally, I'm interested in semiconductors."

Kangchi casually found a reason to deal with the past.

"You must have quite a few acquaintances in this field, right? Can you help me figure it out? Don't worry, I'm not going to let you work in vain. ”

Wang Haowen immediately waved his hand: "It's not a matter of working in vain, if you can help me, you will definitely help." ”

After saying that, he fell into deep thought, and after a while, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and directly took out his mobile phone and flipped through the address book.

"I have an undergraduate classmate who is making integrated circuits at home, but I haven't been in touch for many years, and I don't know if it's still open."

Wang Haowen dialed the phone as he spoke.

The old classmates who haven't been in touch for a few years finally got through the phone, and they must have to talk about the old ones.

So Kangchi walked a little farther with great interest.
