Homecoming of Rebirth

Page 784

Shenzhou is under the name of Sanshi Company, while Imagination is actually controlled by Qishi Technology.If you want an order from Shenzhou, go to Qi Guodong or Old Geng?Can you tell me?

Impatiently stuffing the phone back into his pocket, Qi Lei leaned back with his arms supporting his upper body, enjoying the residual warmth of the setting sun.

But he didn't realize that everyone was actually looking at him.

San Bingzi simply rubbed over, "Boss, what's it like to be the big boss?"

Qi Lei didn't lift his eyelids, "Tired!"

Li Mo is relatively precocious and thinks more about things, "No matter how tired you are, you have to ask, right? Are you really so relieved that you don't care at all?"

From the phone call, Li Mo could tell that Qi Lei really didn't ask questions over Xiang Xiang's side.

Qi Lei tilted his head and glanced at Li Mo'er, "It's not that I don't worry, in fact, I don't worry at all!"

"The most reassuring thing in the world is to do everything by yourself, because people always think that they must do better than others."

"But is that possible?"

Smacking his mouth, "I have too many things to do, and there are too many things I want to do. If I have to ask about everything, not only can I not do it well, I don't think I will live long."

"So, sometimes you have to learn to choose."

"Instead of getting involved in everything, it's better to let go and give others a chance."

Grinning, "It's like Xiangxiang, Lao Wang is a genius, let him do his best in management and management! I just need to coordinate with Nanlao's research and development."

Looking at everyone seriously, "This is the art of management. Everything is not the pursuit of the best, but the best."

Everyone frowned and thought, "Is there a difference?"

Qi Lei, "Yes! The difference is huge."

San Bingzi, "What's the difference? Boss, can you tell me?"

Qi Lei thought about it for a while, "Let's put it this way, it's like you go to high school."

"If you spend all your time learning English, you will get full marks in English. But can you do that?"

Everyone didn't even think about it, "Of course not, what about other subjects?"

Qi Lei, "That's right! That's the reason. Evenly allocate time and experience. Maybe you can't get full marks in English, but you can score 90 points in all subjects."

Everyone will understand at once.

Wang Xueliang noticed another detail, "Shitou, you said Mr. Nan wanted to intervene, so what's going on?"

Even though everyone is already familiar with Qi Lei, they are still full of curiosity about starting a company and the identity of Mr. Qi.

Qi Lei said: "Mr. Nan can only ask questions."

This time Xu Xiaoqian is fine, "Why? Uncle Nan, you can't help, right?"

As far as the company's management is concerned, Qi Lei can still talk, but what does he know about technical issues?

More importantly, as far as Xu Xiaoqian knows, Nan Guanghong is not organizing people to tackle a specific technical node, but is setting the direction.

Qi Lei, "This direction is the most important thing, I have to worry about it!"

When San Bingzi heard this, he got excited again, "Tell me! Tell me! Is it the computer thing you and Liu Jixiang discussed on TV?"

After thinking about it, is it made in China?

Er Chengzi finally found a chance to interject, "Just do it, just do it!? Still, do you need a plan?"

It made Qi Lei happy.

Just cross your legs and talk to them about making domestic chips.

Reversely ask, "What do you think, what do you do to make a chip?"

San Bingzi, "Isn't it just the CPU in the computer? I've seen it before."

Qi Lei, "Then what do you think, is it difficult to manufacture an airplane or a CPU?"

San Bingzi, "Airplane?"

Li Mo said: "I have read the book, these two are different fields, both are very difficult!"

Qi Lei, "If you only talk about manufacturing, it's almost the same, and the aircraft may be a little more difficult."

"However, if the chip is to be domestically produced, it will be more difficult than the aircraft!"

Qi Lei, "Let's put it this way!"

"If the chip wants to achieve completely independent research and development and production, it is equivalent to starting from the materials of the aircraft, to the design of the aircraft, to the production, and then to the assembly."

"And that's not enough. One billion people in China have to learn how to fly a plane before it can be considered 100% domestically produced."

Everyone, "..."

Is this an exaggeration?

However, Qi Lei really didn't exaggerate at all.

Including many people in later generations who think that if we solve the lithography machine and create chips of a few nanometers, it will be domestically produced.

In fact, it's far from it!

Take the chip manufacturing of later generations as an example!

First, is the material.

It is mainly high-purity monocrystalline silicon, that is, silicon wafers.

There are also photoresists, high-purity gas materials, ABF insulating films and so on.

Second, it is a tool.

The lithography machine, etching machine, silicon wafer processing, photoresist, gas material, insulating film production, etc. that are well-known in later generations.

The third is the manufacturing process.

Why is TSMC so bullish?Because some types of high-end chips in later generations, except for it, others can't process it even if they have orders and tools.

The fourth is design.

……

Because there is a fifth link, which is also an important link, called the underlying structure.

The so-called architecture means that the chip can be whatever you want it to be.

In layman's terms, the chip is only made of hardware. To be able to use it, software must be written on the chip, that is, programming.

When programming, if it is too time-consuming to write the program from scratch every time, the time cost is very large.

Therefore, when the chip is manufactured, it is necessary to set the program module in the chip in advance, that is, the instruction set.

In the later stage of software development, you only need to use these instruction sets.

This is like, if I want to write, I can't start from making paper, I can just write on the paper made by others.

Then the problem comes, the instruction set is not papermaking after all, it is much more complicated than that.

Moreover, different instruction sets have different logic.

For programmers, it is impossible to learn all the instruction sets of each company. Everyone will choose a common, simple, and habitual instruction set to use, and eventually a monopoly empire will inevitably be formed.

In terms of architecture in later generations, there are two veteran powerhouses, Intel's x86 and ARM's arm architecture.

A rising star - RISCV.

Except for RISCV, it is possible for us to achieve curve follow-up, and it is impossible to surpass the other two.

Not to mention future generations, it is impossible now.

Because, besides one, two, three, four, five, there is six.

That is, ecology!

This is the same as the system, and it is more difficult to cross than the system.

All over the world, whether they are Chinese or foreign, all specialized talents learn x86 and ARM.

You can make an underlying architecture yourself, but no one knows how to use it!You have to learn it all over again.

How difficult is it to let all programmers in the world learn it again?

And after they have learned it, they can talk about ecology, and then they can talk about ordinary people using your things.

This is what Qi Lei said, not only to build airplanes, but also to let one billion people in China learn to fly airplanes.

Then, you thought it was over?

No!It is not enough to learn how to fly a plane. All places in China must be filled with airports.

Otherwise, it is of no use if you know how to drive.Living in a ravine, the plane could only stop at Harbin Taiping Airport, and the rest of Ru had to ride an ox cart for two days.

In fact, this problem is exactly what the current Pangu and the later Hongmeng encountered.

That is, I have done everything, and the initial ecology has also been established.However, the technologies, applications, software, compatibility, etc. within the ecosystem are all fragmented.

How to integrate these fragments into a whole is another bottleneck.

For example, the current problem of Pangu 2.0 is not to allow office software, entertainment software, and application plug-ins to be transplanted into the system.

The number of users is enough, and the software will take the initiative to enter, that is, a healthy ecology has been established.

However, making these software not conflict, or even compatible together, has become a problem in the next stage.

Just like Pangu 2.0's user experience solution, if Microsoft's Windows wants to imitate, he just needs to negotiate authorization with player companies and compression software companies.

As long as someone nods, he can take it and use it, without having to consider compatibility issues. This is the result of years of working together.

In the work copy, you can realize functions such as search, playback, drawing, etc., without exiting work and re-opening other applications.

Opening the webpage can realize the use of all non-IE functions, which are connected in series.

But Pangu can't, Pangu has not yet been able to glue these fragments together.

However, this is just a system. If the system is fragmented, at most it will be a little troublesome to operate and the user experience will be poor.

However, there are other places that can make up for it, and the excellent experience of the blog network can make users endure other aspects of certainty.

However, the chip architecture...how can I bear it?

If it is not compatible, then it cannot be used, at least in terms of performance, it will be far behind others, and it will affect the overall use of the computer.

Therefore, the ecology of this architecture is the most difficult to break.

In the later generations, HW spent 15 years building its own system and designing its own chips, and it almost didn't get involved in chip manufacturing.

But even so, building blocks can only be built on the basis of the ARM architecture.

So the question is, where to start?Which step can be used as a breakthrough?Fire a shot?

Is it a material, or a manufacturing tool?Is it design, or architecture?Is it the manufacturing process, or ecological cultivation?

Moreover, this is 2001, not the posterity of united will.

In this day and age, there are a lot of people like Liu Jixiang, and many people at the grassroots level feel that they can use it for doctrine, and there is no need to create it themselves.

This is social resistance and lack of ideological support.

Moreover, the foundation 20 years ago is incomparable with 20 years later.

Let's put it this way, in fact, the cutting-edge technology in this world is ultimately about materials.

In fact, there are dozens of cutting-edge materials that affect the progress of human science and technology.

Among these dozens of cutting-edge materials, China in 2001 could independently produce them—single digits.

That is to say, there are only a few of dozens of types that can be made in China.

Among these types, those that can reach the international leading level have to be cut in half.

One, two, three, four, five, six, any place, any material, any equipment, can kill you.

It's that hard!

Combining the situation of this era, Qi Lei briefly explained in a language that a few youngsters could understand, why Xiangxiang wanted to intervene in Nanlao's technology regardless of the business.

To be honest, apart from the insight experiment, they listened to some fresh knowledge other than language and mathematics. It was the first time for these teenagers to hear this professional topic, and it felt amazing.

In addition, Qi Lei's language expression ability is still online, even San Bingzi feels the difficulty and the urgency.

"Boss, it's too difficult! Why don't you forget it?"
