Chapter 253 Semiconductor design team! Sprint carbon-based chips! (2)
"The first step of the plan went very smoothly. What do you plan to do next?" Liang Shaojie asked Gao Yuan curiously.
Gao Yuan thought for a while and said, "Of course it is to learn, then innovate, and defeat Nvidia with Nvidia's technology and experience. I really can't think of anything more exciting in the world than this."
"I'm afraid it's not that simple, right?" Liang Shaojie frowned and said, "Just like ray tracing technology, it is the original creation of NVIDIA. Even if our designers can learn it, it is probably difficult to surpass the original creators of technology."
Liang Shaojie's idea is very reliable, but he didn't know that Gaoyuan had a massive amount of knowledge given by the system. The reason why he wanted to learn Nvidia was mainly to learn Nvidia's experience and improve the compatibility of his own GPU.
Once you learn all Nvidia's technology and build it into Kunlun Group's own graphics card, it will be compatible with all games and software on the market. This is very important.
From a technical point of view, are Windows really irreplaceable?
Absolutely not. Since the introduction of Indian CEO by Gates and recruiting a large number of Indian employees, Microsoft's code quality has always declined, and the operating system is becoming more and more difficult to use, and there are more and more bugs.
Organizing a group of elite domestic programmers may not be able to surpass Microsoft for three years, but if the program is not compatible, there will be no choice for customers.
So for the plateau, having black technology is one thing, and integrating it into the current semiconductor system is another thing.
He needs to constantly learn and integrate NVIDIA's technology into his products. In this way, when the products are released, everyone buys them home and installs them in a computer host and can be used immediately.
Thinking of this, Gao Yuan smiled and said, "It's not easy, but the silicon wafers used in Western chips are physically launched. Taiji Electric is the strongest semiconductor manufacturer on the earth. They use ultra-ultraviolet lithography machines, but they only achieve zero-point eight nanometers. Continue to improve the process technology. Silicon-based chips cannot be used, so they can only turn to carbon-based, and we are the world's strongest carbon-based material suppliers."
Carbon-based!
Liang Shaojie suddenly said, "What you mean is that while Nvidia launches a new generation of GPUs, you also come out, but Nvidia is a silicon-based chip, and you are a carbon-based chip!"
Gao Yuan nodded slightly and said, "That's right, the economic foundation determines the superstructure, and different materials science foundations will also determine the performance of the chip!"
...
Xu Changning has been studying day and night, and the progress of learning is much faster than he imagined.
Because Plateau not only obtained Nvidia's complete architectural blueprint, it also provided the most powerful eA tool software on the earth, Zero Agility.
Xu Changning was almost moved and cried bitterly. This was almost like the plateau to start and push himself toward the path of top semiconductor designers. Not only did he provide powerful learning materials, but he also provided application tools!
If Gao Yuan assigns him a wife or a house, Xu Changning's life will be completely perfect.
After the first few days of observation, the mobile phone has returned to everyone's side, and the ban has been lifted. The administrative department has also prepared temporary employee cards for everyone, which can be freely passed through the company with the card, and use the company's free transportation, watching movies, fitness, swimming, and all entertainment activities are carried out like the employees of Kunlun Group.
Xu Changning gradually felt that the plateau must be planning something.
Sure enough, after several days of high-intensity learning, these people and the team led by Chen Tianshi of Kunlun Group finally gathered together.
For the first time, Xu Changning learned that Kunlun Group's semiconductor design team was much larger than he had imagined.
Still silently, Kunlun Group expanded wildly, and Chen Tianshi already had more than 3,000 people under his command. In addition, the young elites selected by various academies and national team holding units actually exceeded 6,000.
You should know that these more than 6,000 people are pure semiconductor designers, not including any logistics assistants. Everyone is carefully selected and is the best among designers.
Such a strong army and a powerful semiconductor design team on the earth have far surpassed Huawei HiSilicon's peak period, and have also surpassed Qualcomm, Broadcom, Apple, MediaTek, Nvidia, Texas Instruments, STMicroelectronics, Infineon, Sari...
You should know that the total number of engineers behind the famous Apple A-series processors is only more than one thousand, and Qualcomm's Snapdragon series and HiSilicon's Kirin series are all on the same scale.
The plateau gathered more than 6,000 semiconductor engineers at one time. What is he going to do?
With everyone's anticipated eyes, Gao Yuan walked onto the podium, Chen Tianshi and Chu Hongfei stood by him. Chen Tianshi was the manager of Kunlun Semiconductor Team, and Chu Hongfei wrote algorithms and served as technical director.
Looking at everyone present, Gao Yuan smiled and said, "Two days ago, Huawei's President Ren came to us and cried to me, saying that Haisi had drawn nearly a thousand engineers to come to me, and they were all the youngest and most promising beings. He was now in a difficult position and was about to lose his temper."
"I comforted Mr. Ren and said, don't worry, it's not just your HiSilicon that can't be blamed, but even the national team, the semiconductor design institutes with numbers, can't be found now!"
"Not only are you young elites from HiS who are here with me, but now, in the whole of China, all the best semiconductor engineers you can find are here with me!"
"Total, 6,439 people!"
After hearing this, everyone was in an uproar.
There are so many elite engineers gathered in Kunlun Group?
This is almost the strongest force in the entire China. What exactly should the plateau brings everyone together?
After a pause, Gao Yuan said in a deep voice: "I have agreed with HiSilicon and major design institutes. In recent times, everyone has been at ease to stay. Let's do something together. After this matter is finished, everyone is willing to return to their original unit. We will give away and express our gratitude. We will welcome those who are willing to stay.
"Okay, let's get back to the point now, let's talk about what's going on."
"The first thing is to design a gpu based on everyone's previous learning."
"People often misunderstand GPU, and always think that graphics acceleration chips must be used to play games."
"In fact, this is not the case. There is a huge gap between GPU and CPU, both architecture and algorithm. Take Bitcoin mining as an example. Mining machines rely on graphics cards. In terms of mining, CPU has insufficient computing power."
"In addition, GPU has two important uses, one is for AI training, and the other is a supercomputer based on GPU technology."
"Anyway, we just have the information and technology on hand, and we have a demand for GPUs in reality. Not to mention high-end projects like supercomputers, it's also great to have a world's strongest graphics card."
The way of speaking on the plateau is relaxed and funny, which makes everyone laugh.
"More than just good! I dreamt of a super powerful graphics card!"
"Yes, yes! If there is such a graphics card, whoever wants a lady is going to have a girl!"
"Boss Gao, please rest assured. With such sufficient information preparation, it is not too easy to design a graphics card."
"That's right, Boss Gao is too terrible. How can he need such a large team? It's enough to find three or five hundred people!"
Gao Yuan smiled and stood on the stage to listen to everyone's speeches. Then he shook his head and said, "Everyone, this matter is really not as simple as you think. The reason why I put all my strength into such a huge team."
