Zhou Ming and Xie Xide found Huang Kun at the Institute of Electronics. They were very happy. The three of them were students who had returned from studying in the United States and joined the Institute of Electronics together. They devoted their most precious youth to the country's electronics industry.
, plays an irreplaceable role in the development of national defense. This is a friendship like comrades-in-arms. No matter how long they have not seen each other, this friendship will not fade away.
"Why did you two guys get together...this kid...you must be Liu Lang!"
Liu Lang was always so conspicuous, even if Huang Kun had never seen him before, he recognized him at a glance!
"Hello, Grandpa Huang, I am Liu Lang!"
Liu Lang hurried forward.
"Oh, I see, you are doing it for SMIC!"
"Old Huang, what's wrong? Do you know the order from above?"
Xie Xide asked.
"I only found out last night that the leader of the organization department talked to me and said that I have a difficult task assigned to me, which is to organize experts across the country to develop American chips!"
Huang Kun nodded.
"Then how did you answer?"
Xie Xide asked immediately.
"I can only abide by what my superiors decide!"
Huang Kun answered.
"How about you become a leader! Leaders like obedient people like you!"
Xie Xide patted the other party's shoulder.
"Let's not talk about it anymore, Liu Lang. This is the first time we met. I have heard of your name a long time ago. It is a great blessing for the country to have a talent like you!"
Huang Kun also heard about it. It was Liu Lang who suggested the country's plan to establish SMIC this time, and he even named his name directly in front of Mr. Deng. Huang Kun was still wondering how Liu Lang knew about him. He only found out after hearing it.
A few days ago, two old comrades-in-arms, Zhou Ming and Xie Xide, went to Shanghai to work with Liu Lang to set up a wafer production line. I think it was Zhou Ming and the others who told Liu Lang.
"Come on, everyone, come in quickly!"
Huang Kun brought several people into his office.
"Professor Huang, the purpose of our visit this time is very simple. One is to ask you if you agree to join SMIC. Now it seems there is no problem. The other is to ask you what you are going to do!
You must know that Wanan Company may develop high-end chips at any time, and according to my speculation, the development of the entire world's electronics industry will usher in a big explosion next year, and the world will be changed. Wanan Company's chips will undoubtedly become
The best products in the world, as long as we seize this opportunity, our country's electronics industry will keep up with the trend of world development, so we must keep up with the pace of Wanan Company in the shortest possible time!"
Liu Lang didn't waste any time and asked straight to the point.
Liu Lang was so straightforward, as if he regarded himself as the leader, but Huang Kun was not displeased at all, and even took a pen and paper to write down Liu Lang's words in his notebook.
Liu Lang was so "famous" that he dared to tell the truth in front of Mr. Deng. He, Huang Kun, was far worse than Mr. Deng. There was nothing wrong with people saying that.
"Liu Lang, you said that the world's electronics industry will usher in a big explosion, can you tell us what kind of big explosion it will be!"
Huang Kun asked.
"Old Huang, what are you talking about? Liu Lang says whatever he says will be whatever he says!"
Xie Xide was a little impatient. He had a short temper and also trusted Liu Lang very much. He had long believed that Liu Lang's views were correct.
Liu Lang smiled slightly, "fooling" others was his strength.
"That's a good question, Professor Huang. Let me ask you a question first. Do you know anything about computers?"
"Computer? Well, it should also be called a computer! I know a little about it. I heard this word when I was studying in the United States. The English name is puter. This kind of device can perform calculations and is much more powerful than us.
In the 1940s, the Americans developed the atomic bomb, and a lot of data was processed using computers!"
Huang Kun said.
"Yes, you are indeed talking about a computer. Its main component is a chip made of semiconductor materials. It is actually an integrated circuit board. However, the integrated circuit of the chip not only has the functions of other semiconductor devices but also has other powerful functions.
Calculation is just one way, there are other
For text editing, for example, we write with our hands. Western countries can write directly on the computer. After writing, the text can be typeset as required, such as Song Script, cursive script, regular script, etc., all can be done on the computer, and then connected
The printer prints out the document to form a manuscript.
Another example is graphics processing. Now when we do architecture, we have to draw on paper one stroke at a time. One drawing may take a day. If a mistake is made, it is likely to have to be done again. But with computers, it is different.
You can keep sketching until there are no problems, and then you can print out the drawings with just one button."
Huang Kun kept nodding, and then kept writing it down on paper. He had never even heard of these functions.
"However, what I said is that computers only have the most basic functions, which really don't count. In the future, powerful computers can already partially replace manpower. With the help of computers, news production and news editing can now be completed in half a day, which takes ten days.
If you use a computer to process archive documents, you can instantly access a document from ten years ago. It can be said that computers have advantages in management and storage that we humans cannot surpass, and this advantage will also increase with the improvement of chip functions.
Strong and getting bigger!
What I'm talking about is just for civilian use. If it is used in national defense, then the chip will be even more important. If a powerful chip is placed on a satellite, then the satellite is likely to be capable of reconnaissance, information transmission, image transmission, etc.
Function, just imagine, if a satellite of our country flies over the United States and clearly sees their military deployment through high-definition cameras, it will be of strategic significance to the country, and all of this requires
That little chip serves as support."
Liu Lang only talked about the benefits of computers. He didn't mention a word about the Internet. After all, no one knows the concept of the Internet now. If the functions of the Internet were also added, it would take days and nights to talk about it.
But even these points were enough to open Huang Kun's eyes.
"Old Huang, you heard me. Liu Lang's knowledge of integrated circuits is better than ours, and much better. You heard him right!"
Xie Xide said from the side.
"Oh! The power of chips is so powerful. It really opened my eyes. Liu Lang, although I have never heard these words, but I think you are very right. There are many things that no one would have thought of when they were first invented.
What use will it have in the future? For example, when Stella invented alternating current, he probably never imagined that electricity would completely change the world today. Chips may also have the same impact in the future!"
Huang Kun strongly agreed with Liu Lang's statement.
"Professor Huang, I assure you that a small chip will have a disruptive impact on the world in the future, no, in ten years. And chips are different from electricity. Anyone can produce electricity.
No matter how poor a country is, there will still be thermal power plants, but chips are different. It is a huge industrial system with no capacitors or resistors.
Transistors and semiconductor materials cannot make chips. If the quality of these components is not good, powerful chips cannot be made. Our country has a solid foundation in this regard, and it is not much worse than the United States. The only gap now is
The reason is that while others are developing in the past few years, we are standing still, and our technology has fallen behind a bit.
Fortunately, the country is now paying attention to it, and Shanghai is also preparing to build an electronics industrial park. But having said that, those officials don’t know much about chips. They just trust me. There are only experts like Professor Huang, Professor Zhou and Professor Xie.
Only you can truly understand the importance of the electronics industry, and only you can truly strengthen the country's electronics industry."
