But looking at the situation just now, there is no sign of a "fire-fighting general", it's like there is a fire behind the butt...

How big of a deal must have happened for this boss to be so rude?

The manager couldn't help but sigh.

"It's been such a troubled time! Even Mr. Yu feels like he's facing a formidable enemy, and every step of the way is turbulent...

It seems that the situation... is quite serious!"

The two looked at each other, feeling a little heavy...

…

"Mr. Ren! Mr. Ren! It's out! The analysis results are out!"

Mr. Yu rushed in with a happy face.

"Huh?" Mr. Ren put down the pile of information in his hand, raised his head and looked at Mr. Yu, who was a little embarrassed, and felt something in his heart.

"You mean...the analysis results of 'that thing' are out?"

"Yes, amazing! It's amazing! You don't know that the technical chief of the analysis team almost fainted with excitement. He kept shouting that Moore's Law is dead, and he was rescued by pinching him!"

"Well……"

Is it that exaggerated?

"Tell me, what happened?" Even though he was mentally prepared, Mr. Ren's fingers still trembled slightly.

“Although the tape-out is not that fast yet, after careful evaluation by the technical department, there is absolutely no doubt that this technical data is advanced and advanced!

It adopts an advanced optoelectronic hybrid transitional design that is almost conceptual.

In theory, it can be seamlessly connected to most electronic devices in the world that use electronic chips.

In terms of optical signal transmission technology, several key positions use a new design architecture that has never been seen before.

Even our chief executive said it was incredible, saying that its design concept is at least five to ten years ahead of the current situation!

As for the specific performance...according to the design parameters, under the same manufacturing process, its computing power will be close to 1,000 times that of traditional chips, while its power consumption is only one percent of it.

If this thing can really be manufactured, this chip can achieve the same computing power as advanced manufacturing processes at the 100-nanometer level.

This is simply a revolutionary technological breakthrough!”

Mr. Yu's face flushed.

“More importantly, it not only completely gets rid of dependence on advanced processes, but also does not require the use of extremely high-end lithography machines such as EUV to achieve mass production.

And based on preliminary estimates by our team, with the existing technology of domestic manufacturers in this manufacturing field, it is completely possible to realize a complete manufacturing chain of raw materials, processing, packaging, and testing.

This means...all the restrictions we once worried about are useless in front of it!"

Mr. Yu swallowed his saliva and said with a trembling voice.

"The key is that it is a general-purpose chip..."

Universal chip, just the word "universal" represents a completely different new world!

Chips can be divided into two major categories. One is general-purpose chips, including commonly heard CPUs, GPUs, DSPs, etc.

The second is special chips, including FPGA, ASIC, etc.

The difference between "general purpose" and "special purpose" refers to whether the chip is designed only to perform a certain "specific operation".

To use a simple metaphor from a bank, a universal chip is the "bank teller" and can handle various complex businesses.

The special chip is an "ATM machine", which standardizes certain processes and solidifies them in the hardware. It is a processing machine that cannot tolerate emotions.

The key to a universal chip is "universal" and "flexible".

This means that it must be able to handle a variety of strange instruction requirements, and there are often simultaneous requests from multiple external devices.

It must have the ability to interrupt the current operation at any time and proceed to other operations, and then continue the current operation from the interruption point after completion.

Just like a bank teller, customers have to do all sorts of strange things, such as withdrawing money, changing passwords, and from time to time there will be people who jump in line or occupy seats to tease you...

In order to deal with complex situations including "picking up girls", general-purpose chips have complex control processes, but the real computing unit ALU only accounts for a small part of the general-purpose chip.

More designs exist for flexibility, and the former is sacrificed to choose the latter in the trade-off between computational efficiency and versatility.

The key to dedicated chips is "high efficiency"!

Compared with general-purpose chips, special-purpose chips have no "humanity". They are just like an ATM machine. They define clear operating procedures for customers, eliminating a lot of flexibility in design.

The method of flirting with young ladies is not applicable to ATM machines.

No matter how many earthy love words there are, it is impossible for it to spit out even one cent more for you.

The "people" (general-purpose chips) that exist for flexibility and the "machines" (special-purpose chips) that exist for efficiency are two-dimensional things, so we cannot forcefully compare the two simply in terms of performance.

Once you understand the above concepts, you can understand that the difficulty of the two is not at the same order of magnitude.

There are currently no more than 10 companies in China that truly engage in “universal chip” design. This includes those that only design but do not produce, and those that directly use the public version architecture for production.

The leader among them is Sihai, which is a technology-driven enterprise.

The hundreds of companies that make professional chips are making conservative estimates, and some start-ups and overseas companies are just tinkering with concepts without even knowing what a chip looks like.

This type of enterprise can be classified as a capital-driven enterprise.

Why does Sihai dare to say that I am second in chip design no matter where in China, no one dares to claim first?

Because compared with general-purpose chips, special-purpose chips are just a younger brother.

If Chrysanthemum Factory wants to enter a certain professional chip field, the market in this field will explode in minutes because the technology is there.

I've cooked a full Manchu and Han banquet, but I still can't make a plate of egg fried rice?

"Mr. Ren, with this, in two years... no! One year! Within one year, Juchang's mobile phone business will surely rank first in the world!"

Seeing Mr. Yu who was so excited that he couldn't control himself, Mr. Ren quickly calmed down.

"The news... no one else knows, right?"

When Mr. Yu saw this, he quickly calmed down.

"No, according to your instructions, except for a core research team under closed management, absolutely no third person other than you and me knows about it."

After thinking about it, he still couldn't help the shock and curiosity in his heart and asked.

"Mr. Ren, where did this technology... come from?

It even has supporting EDA design software, which shows that the technical strength of the software and hardware is unfathomable!

Which company can do such an amazing thing quietly?”

Gao Yuan's visit was like an ordinary visitor's meeting from beginning to end.

Mr. Ren saw not seven or eight but two or three visitors like this every day, and they didn't attract anyone's attention at all.

Mr. Ren did not make any announcement after the incident. Even core executives like Mr. Yu had no idea who he met and what conversations took place at that time...

Facing Mr. Yu's intense searching gaze, Mr. Ren's eyes couldn't help but fall on the pile of information in front of him...

Mr. Yu's sharp eyes saw that the three words "White Night" were clearly written on the document.

After thinking about it, Mr. Ren handed the information to Mr. Yu.

As an absolute confidant and a 100% trustworthy right-hand man, he still revealed some secrets.

"This is a company information that my friend from Tuosu City helped collect. Didn't you tell me that the cooperation with Cambrian is not ideal?

I think it will be helpful to our ‘Da Vinci Project’.”

The so-called "Da Vinci Project" is Juchang's self-developed AI chip plan.

On April 9 this year, Juchang just reached a strategic cooperation with Cambrian to provide artificial intelligence IP and software solutions for its first artificial intelligence mobile phone chip Kirin970.

Mr. Yu took the information with a surprised look on his face.

After a quick glance, I realized that this actually looked like a very ordinary, small company that had just been established.

The only product is a cloud ERP called "Tianshu"...

But... what the hell is buying oil tankers and investing in shipyards?

Are you sure you are an IT company?

Are you so unprofessional?

The name Bai Yeji is also quite unfamiliar, and Mr. Yu said he had no idea there was such a number one character in the industry.

But Mr. Ren couldn't let it go.

Thinking of that amazing technical information...

"Eh? Hu Yifei?"

When he saw the general manager's column, Mr. Yu couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise.

"What? Do you know him?" Mr. Ren asked doubtfully.

"Well! Last time I went to Suzhou City to investigate smart city cooperation projects, I had contact with the mayor.
