Chapter 990 Immortal
"It's definitely not enough to endure." After sighing, Su Yuanshan shook his head and made a judgment.
"What you mean is that you have issued a death penalty notice to Warwick?" Li Mingliu looked at Su Yuanshan with a smile. As Su Yuanshan's most capable assistant and partner in the semiconductor field, he naturally knew that Su Yuanshan's eyes have always been in the entire domestic semiconductor industry.
Nowadays, the domestic semiconductor industry has shifted from the previous goal of "domestic substitution" to "catching up and leading".
But after all, this is an industry that carries the technical foundation of the current industrial revolution. Everyone knows that this is the future. You are chasing hard behind, but others are also running hard behind...
Therefore, even though four semiconductor support projects have been launched in China in the past decade, semiconductor giants like Yuanxin have been continuously investing in China, some areas have not been able to do so.
These four semiconductor industry projects were the 908 in the last century, which supported Huajing, 909 made Wuxi a "core city", 910 made the LCD panel industry, BOE to rise, and 1008 made the semiconductor raw material industry, relying on the background of the Zhongnibang Free Trade Agreement to support the semiconductor raw material industry, Shoujin, Ji'an Chemical and other upstream companies to rise.
But semiconductors are ultimately a big industry and are increasingly segmented. For example, IC design is constantly split due to the emergence of various special chips and the expansion of the market.
The Yuanxin CPU department is chip design, and the flash memory department is also chip design. GPU, DSP, and even npu-neural-work, processing and units jointly launched by Pandora Lab and Silicon Core. The same is true.
Among these many IIC fields, FPGA is still far behind in China.
What's bad is that Yuanxin's demand for FPGA chips is increasing day by day.
fpga—field programmable gate arra, translated as a field programmable logic gate array, which is in line with the past pal, gal, etc., but due to the improvement of chip performance, its application scenarios have been greatly increased.
In the past, programmable chips such as pal and gal were mostly used in certain quantities and demanded very little but also required specially customized chips, such as aircraft, such as various large program control equipment. Sometimes these products cannot use thousands of chips throughout the production cycle, but these chips need to be specially designed. As we all know, if you go to a wafer factory for a few thousand chips, no matter how rich your family is, you can lose all your money.
In addition, these programmable chips can also be used as preliminary verification of some uncomplexing Asics - that is, after designing them on EDA, you will not hurry to take them to remove them, but run them on FPGA first, and then take them to remove them to remove them if there is no problem.
Nowadays, with the continuous advancement of processes and processes, the performance of FPGA is increasing day by day, so that it has become the first choice in the communications field, industry, aerospace, military industry and other fields.
For example, if all chips are used to slide the base station, the cost will be too high.
Nowadays, Yuanxin’s partners have always been Xilinx and Lattice.
...
"The death penalty is not considered a matter of fact, it just shows that it is that it is up to Warwick itself, and it is difficult to build FPGA now. Unless the country needs targeted support again..." Su Yuanshan smiled and shook his head: "But how can the country have so much energy to support it now? Poverty alleviation, infrastructure, military industry, biology, the next generation of technological revolution, scientific research system... Which one is not more important than the small field of FPGA?"
Li Ming and Liu Shen agreed: "That's right."
"But FPGA has a very big relationship with us, and I don't want to be stuck in the future... So you run there and say more."
"Yes." Li Mingliu nodded, then said, "But I think... If you do this, maybe Warwick will agree."
Su Yuanshan glanced at him: "If you are lazy, don't make excuses..."
Li Mingliu coughed twice.
"Let's go, go to the next building to check it out. I guess I'll have to call if I don't go to Lao Gao."
Then... As soon as Su Yuanshan finished speaking, his cell phone rang...
...
Of course, Gao Xiaodi was the one who called.
As Su Yuanshan said, he was almost dozing off and didn't wait for anyone, so he made a phone call.
In Gao Xiaodi's office, Su Yuanshan and Li Mingliu listened to the recent work reports of Gao Xiaodi and several persons in charge. Of course, they all picked up technological progress and did not mention the market.
But Gao Xiaodi did not mention the market, and Su Yuanshan would not let him go.
After all, the CPU department completed its subsidiary a few years ago, and now it has a complete team of enterprises. It is just because Yuanxin is fully controlled, so there is no change on the surface.
"Lao Gao, let me first... I haven't used Intel and Amd processors for ten years. I admit that the latest Aolong can meet my needs, but consumers can not just meet their needs."
"Hehe, I know, what consumers want is cost-effective...so we have always done a good job of cost-effectiveness." Gao Xiaodi licked his face and said nothing about the market share in the consumer market: "But we performed well in the server field. The Zhulong series can already be played in Intel's Zhiqiang series with both back and forth."
"Um……"
Su Yuanshan "hmm" and expressed his "barely" approval.
After all, he decided to walk on both consumer and server legs. The essence is to realize domestic substitution in the server field, so as to complete the de-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i
Now ten years have passed, since Chengdian Hi-Tech acquired Inspur, it has formed a one-stop domestic server industry chain that integrates from processors, memory, and equipment. And because of Yuanxin's influence in the Internet field... Therefore, let alone domestic server rooms, even abroad, Chengdian Hi-Tech has become the enemy of ibm, dell, and hp server suppliers.
In this industrial chain, everyone makes money, and even Yuanxin’s CPU department has achieved overall profits.
But Su Yuanshan still "barely" agrees... naturally because he knew that if he kept eating the server industry chain... it would not work.
That's too stable.
Stabilizing will lead to losing progress, which is inevitable.
"Consumer-grade processors are still the most important thing to pay attention to at present. Intel will last for a day, and we cannot relax in a day." Su Yuanshan looked at Gao Xiaodi, watching this guy turn into a middle-aged man with a big belly at a speed visible to the naked eye... He looked down at himself again.
Fortunately, my figure is maintained.
"Well, I have never relaxed." Gao Xiaodi also followed Su Yuanshan's gaze and immediately guessed Su Yuanshan's thoughts like the worms in Su Yuanshan's belly. He immediately shouted: "Damn, are you despising my figure?"
"No!" Su Yuanshan refused flatly: "I just think you should exercise."
"Did you still say?" Gao Xiaodi glanced at the treadmill in the corner of the office, looking sad.
——Except for the two days he went to try this thing, he kept eating dust for the rest of the time.
Everyone laughed.
After laughing, Li Mingliu took over the words: "I think, the processor may still need to change its thinking and introduce new thinking..."
"What does it mean?" Gao Xiaodi immediately looked at him.
"Not interesting, I mean, should I try another architect?" Li Mingliu shrugged, not caring about Gao Xiaodi's astonished gaze, and said with a smile: "Old Gao, don't look at me with that kind of look. I'm now out of the front line of architecture design."
Su Yuanshan also looked at Li Mingliu in surprise.
Obviously, Li Mingliu... is indeed the crux of the current Yuanxin CPU department.
Gao Xiaodi, as a successful general, is naturally OK - although he is now full of belly and looks like an agency cadre who enjoys peace and prosperity early or not, he is just a problem of "sitting out" and "bearing out".
Gao Xiaodi's desperate spirit is no worse than Li Mingliu.
It is precisely because of these two people that Yuanxin’s flash memory department can lead the fans, and Yuanxin’s CPU department can become one of the four CPU companies under the 20 years behind Silicon Valley.
You should know that CPU is a typical winner-takes-all market, and as long as the winner does not make mistakes, the advantages will generally be magnified.
Moreover, compared with the Intel in Su Yuanshan’s memory, Intel in this life is not a toothpaste factory. Now that the process and Deyuan are moving forward together, the new processors launched by Intel will have a great two years and performance improvement every year.
I can only say that facing the three pursuers behind, Intel really felt a sense of crisis and was dealing with it with all his strength.
Therefore, no matter how high Su Yuanshan had expectations for CPU, he had never expressed dissatisfaction or blamed Gao Xiaodi.
But...even if there are many realistic reasons, it still cannot cover up a fact, that is...
In the field of architectural design, Gao Xiaodi does not have much talent.
Although Su Yuanshan has it, he can only give a large, structural framework, and the person who does specific work and solves specific problems is still Gao Xiaodi.
Facing the eyes of the people in the room, Li Mingliu smiled again.
"My brothers are all old acquaintances for more than ten years. Today, President Shan is here, so he just opened his words. I think, Lao Gao, people's energy is still limited, you have to accept it."
Gao Xiaodi smiled: "This is."
"So, I think it's good enough for you to capture the server like this, so there's no need to capture consumer-grade chips..."
"You're right, but who can take over my shift?" Gao Xiaodi said, but his eyes looked at Su Yuanshan.
Only Mr. Shan is capable of his job.
Even Gao Xiaodi knew very well that as long as Su Yuanshan was willing to join the group, he would follow the work style he had in the Jiangdu Building era before...
Then the elimination of Intel is just around the corner.
but……
This is obviously impossible.
Facing Gao Xiaodi's gaze, Su Yuanshan smiled and breathed slowly.
Of course, he has no time and no energy to calm down and dive into the processor department. In the future, his focus will be more in scientific research, in addition to being a mascot and managing enterprises.
And during this period of time... Su Yuanshan really couldn't find better talents - of course, there were no reserve candidates.
One of his first disciples was designed by integrated circuits.
Yue Hongyi.
Since graduation, Yue Hongyi has entered the processor department.
But now, Yue Hongyi is not good yet.
Just then, Li Mingliu suddenly said.
"How about Jim Keller?"
After he finished speaking, everyone looked at him.
Especially Su Yuanshan, he looked surprised.
"Everyone knows Jim Keller? He plans to change jobs recently." Li Mingliu looked at Su Yuanshan: "If I can pull him over... I think it's feasible."
Su Yuanshan took a deep breath and looked at Li Mingliu for a moment: "Are you sure Jim is going to change jobs? Didn't he do a good job in Xinghai?"
"Well, sure...but I'm not sure if he is interested in coming to our side, or to the country." Li Mingliu looked at Gao Xiaodi again: "Old Gao..."
Gao Xiao first slapped his thigh: "If Jim really came over, then I would love it! Xinghai was relying on this brother, and he almost fucked Amd directly in the past few years. If he could come over... we could at least kill Xinghai, right?"
--Yes
