Technological Supremacy Chapter 384: Counterattack and Cao Yuan’s experiment
Tang Jie is also a veteran of the company. Back then, after the first search war between Xingchen Technology and Google, Tang Jie and Guo Guangmao became the person in charge of Xingchen Search. .
All the subsidiaries of Xingchen Technology can basically take the lead with powerful technology and establish their status in the world in one fell swoop, except Xingchen Search.
At the beginning of the establishment of Star Search, it only accounted for 20% of the global market share. It has been fighting all the way until now, and finally it has an equal share with Google in the global search market.
From the beginning to the end, Star Search, a subsidiary, has maintained a state of war, especially in the fiercely competitive European market. For several years, they have been fighting Google hard, and their brains are almost out of their minds. .
With straight men in science and engineering everywhere in Xingchen Technology, Tang Jie was able to hold the position of vice president as a liberal arts student, which showed his ability and courage.
However, after listening to Luo Jia's description, Tang Jie, who had seen the big world, was stunned and completely dumbfounded.
If only one subsidiary of Xingchen Search took action, it could be regarded as retaliation to the opposite side of the Pacific Ocean, but now the headquarters and all subsidiaries are all involved. This is not a question of revenge, but a war!
"Boss Luo, are you kidding me?" Tang Jie asked nervously after swallowing a mouthful.
Luo Jia picked up the teacup and said slowly, "You can't joke about this kind of thing. The action is relatively big, and it is necessary to keep it secret, so I didn't tell you."
Tang Jie smiled wryly, and Luo Jia told Xingchen Search, hit me **** the first day of the new year!
In the same way, he also issued an order to all subsidiaries, and everyone acted separately. Finally, on New Year's Day, it was everyone who launched an attack together.
"Don't worry, just do your job well." Luo Jia comforted Tang Jie and said, "This time, we have no way out. If we lose, we will eat grass from now on. If we win, we will eat meat from now on. If you surrender, you will only be able to eat **** from now on."
……
The first day of Star Technology's fifth year was destined to not be an ordinary day, because the tough guys launched a large-scale retaliation against North America at the beginning of the new year.
The West is not monolithic either. Luo Jia adopts the strategy of pulling one faction against another faction, and the targets of revenge are limited to North America.
Other regions, headed by Europe, have not entered the retaliation list. When I went to work the next morning, the Star Industrial Software in the European region was running as usual, and the purchase orders were still going according to the process.
However, North America is different. Industrial software customers have received suspension notices. Intel and GlobalFoundries have also received bad news that the modified fully synthetic photoresist of the Star brand is no longer available.
In the next few days, public opinion fermented rapidly, and the global media paid attention to this East-West technological war.
In particular, the news of the successful trial production of the fourth-generation lithography machine has shocked the world too much.
The West has always been contemptuous of China's scientific research capabilities, and does not believe that the fourth-generation lithography machine really exists. Although Luo Jia gave a public speech that day, and the theory was sound, but having a theory does not mean that it can be realized. The Western scientific community generally believes that , Star Technology has a relatively large bluff component.
Now it is a complete hammer stone. The 12-inch wafers of SMIC's C1 line have all rolled off the assembly line. If anyone reaches this stage and still does not believe in the technology of Xingchen Technology, then there may be something wrong with his head.
"For things like war, you either don't fight. If you want to fight, you must hurt the other party." In the office, Luo Jia said to Li Moran.
In a short period of time, Li Moran had a lot of gray hair on his forehead, and he started to develop the software department of assembly and instruction sets, and the pressure he faced was no less than that of the hardware department.
After all, this is an all-Chinese underlying machine architecture. Many generations of scientists have dreamed of something. Only by subverting the underlying hardware can we gain real dominance in the semiconductor field, otherwise we will always be able to catch up with the West.
"I don't think it hurts that much, does it? Have you read today's New York Times column?"
There was a voice outside the door, and then An Ran strode in with dark circles under his eyes. He was on maternity leave with his wife, but he was still paying attention to the company's affairs. Judging by his mental state, he probably hasn't slept much for many days. up.
"Didn't you agree to let you stay with your wife and not worry about the company's affairs? There is me in the hardware and Moran in the software, so nothing can go wrong." Luo Jia muttered.
Li Moran nodded again and again, everyone wanted An Ran to take a big vacation. Over the past few years, he has worked hard enough, it's time to spend time with his wife and children.
An Ran was furious, and swipe on the phone screen to transfer the article to the phones of Luo Jia and Li Moran, "Let's talk after you read this article."
Luo Jia bowed his head. He always reads very fast, so he finished it in a short time.
To put it simply, this is an article mocking China. The New York Times compared the fourth-generation lithography machine to Gandalf's magic cane, and compared the Chinese people to a group of dwarves. In the hands of the dwarves, it is purely a wasteful conclusion.
Then the topic changed, and the author talked about the fact that Xingchen Technology cut off the supply of photoresist, and he was full of cynicism. A giant like Intel is simply bored.
In any case, it was trying its best to ridicule Xingchen Technology and China's science and technology circles. In the field of semiconductors, China needs North America more than North America needs Huaxia. Xingchen Technology is just pretending. It is just to add weight to the upcoming negotiations, not justified.
Luo Jia shrugged after reading the article, "I'm not wrong. At this stage, we need North America more than North America needs us. After all, semiconductor is a huge industry, and only lithography machines can't make it." For the CPU, so far, even our wafers are still imported from the old rival Neon Shin-Etsu."
"Of course I know that the domestic semiconductor industry is still very weak, and it is difficult to engage in research and development, but I really can't stand the power of speech being completely controlled by the Western world." It’s all dry stuff, but how many people in the world read it? Everyone is still used to reading Western reports, which is this kind of rubbish.”
Luo Jia complained: "That's why I said that cultural hegemony is the end point of all hegemony. After mastering the right to speak in public opinion, you can say black into white and wrong into right."
"Over the years, Hollywood movies have repeatedly brainwashed us, causing many Chinese young people to envy Western young people who drink alcohol, have promiscuity, take drugs every day, envy their endless parties, envy their noisy, direct calling The names of teachers and elders, there are no rules in class, and the teacher can't control it, I think it's free and easy."
"Thinking about it is also very speechless. It is obviously uneducated, but it can be related to freedom."
Luo Jia complained a lot, then said with a mysterious smile: "However, it's really a coincidence that you came today. After a while, there will be an experiment at Cao Yuan's side. It is also because of this that I brought Mo Ran here. Yes, since you have come to the company, do you want to go and have a look?"
Cao Yuan's experiment! ?
An Ran turned pale with shock~IndoMTL.com~ excitedly jumped up from the sofa.
There are three great masters in the company's material department, among which Cao Yuan specializes in graphene, or more precisely, he specializes in graphene preparation technology.
Graphene is really powerful. It has a unique energy band structure and is the only semiconductor with zero bandgap width. Its conductive electrons can stably exist in zero-mass Dirac fermions at room temperature. When graphene conducts, the energy loss is extremely low.
Luo Jia wants to visit Cao Yuan's experiment specifically. Could it be that the graphene laboratory has achieved a huge breakthrough in the preparation process?
As An Ran thought about it, his heart almost jumped out of excitement. Between his wife and children and Cao Yuan's experiment, he chose the latter without hesitation.
"Then why are you standing still? Let's go!" An Ran said quickly, "If graphene can be produced, I will kill them!"
