Chapter 81 Design Architecture
Author: Baisha
Let’s not mention that Wang Jizhi and Philips have had protracted negotiations and bargaining prices for the time being.
Zhao Ye was very busy.
He plans to develop a relatively mature MMC chip in Nintendo's previous life, so the workload is a little bit larger.
AutoCAD drawing software is really not good, and Zhao Ye has complained several times.
As the saying goes, "If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools."
Zhao Ye vowed that when the MMC chip is developed, he must develop an EDA chip design software.
...
...
"The boss is fine. In order to design this MMC chip, he locked himself in the office from day to night, and asked us not to disturb him. Comrade Li Aojun, you have a special identity, go in and take a look..." Wu Feihu, the bodyguard leader of the second group, whispered, and after saying that, he looked at Li Aojun.
Li Aojun is not only a bodyguard, but also serves as Zhao Ye's secretary.
When Li Aojun heard this, hesitated for a moment, then nodded to Wu Feihu.
He quietly pushed open the office door, and Li Aojun looked inside. He saw Zhao Ye staring at the computer with all his heart, typing on the keyboard with both hands quickly. The sound was like a storm, and "da da da da" resounded in this extremely quiet office.
At this moment, Zhao Ye suddenly frowned, and the action of typing on the keyboard stopped, and then completely stopped.
"Has he encountered a problem?"
Seeing this, Li Aojun guessed in his heart that the beautiful Liu Ye couldn't help but frown slightly, hesitating whether to persuade the other party to take a break, and perhaps he could come up with a solution later.
But Zhao Ye's expression stretched and continued to quickly typing on the keyboard.
Li Aojun was stunned and immediately took back the steps he was about to take. After thinking about it, he quietly retreated and then carefully closed the door.
"How is it? Is the boss okay?" Wu Feihu asked.
Li Aojun said lightly: "The boss is fine."
"Oh, that's good!"
Wu Feihu couldn't help but sigh, "The people who do scientific research are different. They work very crazy! Not only our boss, but many people in Loongson Design Company are like this! Do you think so, Brother Wang?"
Wang Shuang replied seriously: "No one can succeed casually. You only see the glamor on others' surface, but you can't see the efforts behind them!"
"Yes, this is how our boss is. Others only see him at the surface, but they don't know how much sweat he has put in behind his back!" Wu Feihu sighed.
When he was in Hong Kong, Wu Feihu learned in the newspaper that many Hong Kong rich people were either playing with celebrities or on the way to playing with celebrities.
It’s not like a boss, who focuses on scientific research.
...
Time flies.
In a blink of an eye, 20 days passed.
With everyone's cooperation, Zhao Ye has designed the system architecture of the MMC chip and defined the software interface, timing, performance, area and power limits.
Next is architecture verification, attribute inspection, design input, function simulation, equivalence inspection, etc....
There are many steps, which take a long time. Loongson Design Company has a professional team doing these.
Zhao Ye will not continue to waste time here.
Unless there is a problem that they cannot solve, Zhao Ye will come again.
Next, Zhao Ye’s task is to develop EDA software.
However, the development of EDA software is very difficult, and the most core is the semiconductor device model.
The device model characterized by mathematical formulas is the bridge between EDA software and actual process processes. The more accurate the device model, the closer the EDA simulation circuit is to the real chip.
As for what is a device model.
It is very simple. EDA requires a set of mathematical formulas to describe the basic physical parameter relationship of transistors, such as the most basic voltage-current relationship of gate G, source S, and drain D. Similar to the voltage and current formula of resistor I=U/R, the U-I formula of transistors will of course be more complicated, but the basic ideas and principles are the same. This set of mathematical formula is called the device model of transistors.
It can be imagined that the more accurate the device model is, the closer the EDA simulation circuit is to the real chip.
Zhao Ye failed several times in his previous life. The first time he started his business was to start a business with the spirit of developing a state-owned EDA software. The result is conceivable. Although the EDA software was finally developed, the product was different from that of foreign countries and the sales volume was very low. Zhao Ye only persisted for two years and filed for bankruptcy.
As the old saying goes, failure is the mother of success.
Now, as long as Zhao Ye takes out the EDA software he personally participated in the design and development of his previous life, he will succeed! Although this EDA software was not as good as those EDAs abroad in his previous life, it was a dimensional reduction blow in this era.
Zhao Ye was impressed by this EDA software, but it would be too difficult for Zhao Ye to develop it alone. Not to mention the workload, it also involves mathematics, physics, chemistry, etc.
But he knows the best mathematical models and algorithms.
Zhao Ye decided to sort out the requirements and technical difficulties of developing EDA first, and then recruit talents nationwide to assist him in doing this.
The EDA development cycle is long and I can’t eat hot tofu in a hurry. Now the game development has reached a critical moment. As a master of time management, Zhao Ye, at this moment, what he has to do is to make the game popular.
At this time, Shanghai Art Film Studio has declined. There is no expense to produce cartoons every year, and even the salary of employees cannot be paid. More and more people can only find another way to make a living.
Zhao Ye did not go directly to the Shanghai Art Film Studio, but instead looked for leader Liu Hai.
Shanghai Art Film Studio has become a burden to the government. Perhaps the government will not agree if others buy it, but if Zhao Ye buys it, the situation may be different.
Wujiang Microelectronics Co., Ltd. is in Shanghai. No matter what, the municipal party committee and government should give Zhao Ye a little face. Otherwise, Wujiang Microelectronics Company will move to the capital or Shenzhen, and the municipal party committee and government will cry to death!
The big guys can still be clear about which one is more important.
Moreover, they also hope that Zhao Ye will continue to invest in Shanghai.
Even Zhao Ye thinks it is worthwhile to change his favorability to a Shanghai art film studio. What do you think?
As soon as Zhao Ye arrived at the Municipal Party Committee and Government Building, Liu Hai immediately took the initiative to greet him.
This is when the country was not rich enough in the 1980s, but a peerless figure like Zhao Ye was revealed. If it were put in the previous life, even if a billionaire wanted to see him, it would not be so simple.
When Zhao Ye saw Secretary Liu coming out, he did not dare to show off his airs and quickly reached out to say hello.
The two of them greeted each other.
Secretary Liu Hai invited Zhao Ye to the office.
As soon as he sat down and drank two sips of tea, Zhao Ye explained his purpose.
"Leader Liu, I heard that Shanghai Art Film Studio has suffered losses in recent years, and many employees have left their jobs. To be honest, my heart hurts very much. I grew up watching cartoons from Shanghai Art Film Studios, "The Tadpole Looking for Mother", "The Magical Pen Ma Liang", "The Strange Talk of the Heavenly Book", "Afanti", "Three Monks", "Black Cat Sheriff", "Nezha Has the Sea", "The Great Trouble in the Heavenly Palace", etc., are all my childhood memories."
Zhao Ye paused and said with a look of regret, "However, it is a pity that such an animation studio with a glorious history has declined now. So I plan to buy the Shanghai Art Film Studio and recreate its former glory!"
