Chapter 335 Arrangement for Internship at Intel
The flower blooms in two, and the words are divided into two ends.
As soon as Song Yuanting came to the United States.
I checked into a five-star hotel, the Edison Hotel.
I fully enjoyed what degenerate and decadent capitalism is.
There are a few innocuous adjectives in the textbook that cannot be reflected at all.
A few days ago, Ye Feng told him when he just left the airport:
"Senior Brother Song! The strength of the United States lies in their sophisticated technology, especially in the microelectronics industry. Although I am not a microelectronics major, I will do my best to help and develop our microelectronics major.
"
Finally, he told him that when he succeeds in his studies, he must return to China to find Ye Feng.
at that time.
He made up his mind,
"This trip to study in the United States is a must. Because most of the world's most powerful microelectronics industry giants are in the United States."
“Only by concentrating on studying can you truly learn your skills.”
"We must not let down Junior Brother Ye Feng and the ardent expectations of the school teachers."
…
One week later.
Portland, Oregon, USA.
The famous Intel Technology Research Department welcomed an elegant young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
Take a closer look.
He turned out to be an Oriental with yellow skin and black eyes.
It was Song Yuanting who came to the United States not long ago.
He works as an intern.
Can enter this world-class company for internship.
Of course he is very capable and has outstanding achievements.
What's more, it's because Ye Feng and Dean Su are working behind the scenes.
"Portland is also known as the "City of Roses". This is because Portland's climate is particularly suitable for growing roses. There are many rose gardens in the city, such as the International Rose Test Garden in Portland's Washington Park.
"
"Portland also has many other nicknames. For example, due to the rapid urban construction that year, the stumps left by felled trees had no time to be cleared, and the surrounding area of the city was full of stumps, so it was called "Tree Stump City."
"Because there are many rivers and bridges, it is called "Bridge City", "River City" and so on."
New to Intel.
His master, a Ph.D. from the MIT School of Engineering, Mr. Eric told him.
He is a middle-aged man with a strong artistic style.
"Hey, Song~~"
Dr. Eric's nose bridge is extremely high and red.
Apparently he drinks a lot.
"Portland is a city where you can just go shopping when you have time."
"Today, your mission is finished."
Dr. Eric stopped the introduction and drew Song Yuanting's mind to work.
"Doctor, what do you want me to do?"
Song Yuanting humbly asked for advice on the factory equipment, experimental equipment, and working environment here.
It surprised him all the way.
Compared to China, there are only two words to describe it!
Moreover, not only the working environment and other hardware here are 20 to 30 years ahead of the country.
The humanities here also made him feel very friendly, warm and casual.
As microelectronics engineering, it is such a top priority industry.
In China, they are generally found in the military industry or large state-owned enterprises.
The political atmosphere working there is really too strong.
No private company like Intel is as easy-going.
Dr. Eric smiled and said:
"Song, your first task is to assist senior engineers to install the world's first mirra on our research and development production line, find a suitable process for the equipment and improve the equipment."
The mirra here is the CMP (Chemical Mechanical Polishing) equipment in the wafer manufacturing process.
It is very important in the wafer process, and there are generally only two reliable brands in the world. The first is appied materialia1s (amat, an American applied materials company), which launched the "mirra 34oo" model last year.
"This~~"
Song Yuanting was stunned.
He was just an intern, and he was given such an important job right from the start?
However, the next time, he knew that he had thought too much.
Song Yuanting didn't know anything about CMP (Chemical Mechanical Polishing), so he worked 12-16 hours a day, doing odd jobs for senior engineers.
Such tension and busyness day after day.
The company leaders have said that the microelectronics major is no better than others.
His internship period is not one month, nor three months, but a full nine months.
What’s even more amusing is that the senior engineers who worked with him were quite friendly to him. They not only taught him a lot through words and deeds, but also often told him about an engineer in front of him who had a master’s degree from UIUC and was also of Chinese descent.
, I left after working for three months, and finally went to serve dishes in a restaurant.
Fortunately, Song Yuanting persisted.
Not only did he do his job well, he also studied eagerly, like a dry sponge, absorbing every drop of water.
However, before falling asleep in the middle of the night, he always thought about it.
The amount of knowledge in this industry is probably an ocean.
How much can this little sponge absorb?
In the semiconductor manufacturing industry, what we need most is cooperation, all the time.
This is not like building atomic bombs and artificial satellites. Once the technical plan is confirmed, there will be no big changes.
Semiconductor technology follows Moore's Law, and the number of transistors doubles every 18 months.
The challenges in manufacturing processes, devices, materials, etc. are all more difficult than those in Shu Road.
Throughout the industry, every knowledge worker plays a very important role.
If you still have to look forward and backward and worry about gains and losses when the arrow is on the string and you have no choice, you will not have the inspiration and impulse to innovate at all.
Many enthusiastic people in China are flying slogans, thinking that if the leaders pay attention and the country is willing to pay, they can develop the microelectronics (integrated circuit) industry like manufacturing atomic bombs and artificial satellites. In fact, it is a foolish dream of a group of blind people.
In the deserted night, Song Yuanting was reflecting on why the Chinese man in front of him couldn't continue working for less than three months and went to wash dishes in a Chinese restaurant.
It has to be said that the talents cultivated by the examination-oriented education system and the outstanding students selected by the Olympic competition are difficult to meet the needs of the semiconductor industry exhibition.
…
"Ding~~"
Song Yuanting turned off the alarm clock and entered a new week of intense study and work.
"Hi, Song~~"
Dr. Eric rubbed his eyes and winked at him.
He quietly pulled Song Yuanting aside, "Oh my gosh, that bottle of Maotai you gave me last weekend was so fragrant. When I opened the bottle, the whole room was filled with the aroma of wine."
"And, I just took a small sip and slept the whole night."
"I swear, this is the best wine I've ever had."
Dr. Eric marveled.
I didn’t expect that the mysterious ancient Eastern country could produce such fine wine.
"Thank you for the compliment, I hope you like it."
Song Yuanting smiled.
This is the quality of Junior Brother Ye Feng.
Legend has it that the underground wine cellar of his villa in Rongcheng is full of Maotai liquor, which is extremely valuable.
This is the national drink.
Chapter completed!
