Chapter 71 Help me test my laptop

From the beginning, Ni Nanguang always wanted to appeal to the little intern in front of him to write this interview well.

Strive to let more Chinese people see the importance of independent production of chips.

But as the two of them chatted more and more, Ni Nanguang was surprised to find that despite his young age, this intern's vision for chips was no worse than his own.

On many issues, even with a long-term perspective, I can think more thoroughly than myself.

This surprising discovery made Ni Nanguang frequently hold his eyes with his hands.

Logically speaking, he is a young reporter and should be a student majoring in journalism and communication.

But why do we know so much about the semiconductor industry?

If you do some homework for an interview, that's only human nature.

But this kind of homework cannot break away from the current thinking and perspective.

Even if you do your homework and read other people's reports or the contents of other people's magazines, you will be led away by them.

Just as many media are predicting, cars in the 21st century will definitely be able to fly in the sky.

Therefore, many people believe that the future development direction of automobiles must be to fly into the sky.

But the intern just now gave a completely different interpretation.

The intern in front of me told myself that cars in the future must be intelligent and networked, and cars will not develop towards the sky.

The insurance companies won't agree to it, the general public won't agree to it, and the Air Force won't agree to it.

Only those with stupid minds would imagine this.

Even car manufacturers won't consider it.

Cars are consumer goods, and the first thing consumers consider is always the price and cost of use.

Flying cars must be more expensive than non-flying cars. This must be an iron rule.

If a flying car falls down, the insurance company will scold it.

The cost of using a flying car will only be higher for consumers. Do they need to pay route fees, do they need to pay air traffic control fees? Do they need to pay more and more expensive insurance?

At such a young age, I have such insight that I can even jump out of the current time and space.

This kind of thinking ability is really very rare.

"Actually, overtaking on a curve is not impossible..." Just when Ni Nanguang was praising him in his heart, the young man made a 180-degree change in an instant.

Alas... I'm still too young after all.

"Oh, tell me, how to overtake on a curve?" In the past, Ni Nanguang would have been serving tea to see off the guests.

But because this young man gave me too many surprises, I could suppress my temper and listen to what he had to say at this time.

Science is not superstition, it has its own laws of development.

Just like the ancient human farming civilization, it was impossible to have instant lights, telephones or even the Internet.

"Intel's Pentium 3 CPU uses a 180nm process.

After the Pentium 4, many models used the 130nm process.

As of now, the 90nm Pentium 4 has completed tape-out, which is also trial production.

According to Intel's internal leaked emails, they will launch the first 90-nanometer Pentium 4 in January 2004! According to the timeline, they will start large-scale stock production in mid-2003.

The 45nm you just mentioned will appear on the market around 2007 at the earliest.

Between 90 nanometers and 45 nanometers, there will be a transition to 65 nanometers.

The reason why you saw some wrong information may be that some pro-Intel media deliberately released false news.

However, it is a pity that we have realized the 190nm process in the early years, but we do not have the ability to apply it for mass production. To put it bluntly, it is useless and no one wants it.

The hugely successful Pentium 3 is just a 180nm process.

We were fully capable of fighting back then.

But it is a pity that even if the technology is available, there is no large environment to use it.

It can only end up eating dirt in the laboratory.

I 100% believe that even if it is a Pentium 4-like CPU that we built first.

But the final result is that whether it is Microsoft, Apple, IBM, or other semiconductor manufacturers, they will not cooperate with our chips in optimizing.

Not only will they not cooperate with us, they will even use any means to suppress us." After Su An said this, he paused for a moment.

“If you want to overtake in a corner, there is indeed a way.

First of all, as long as we can develop an operating system comparable to win98, we will no longer ask the application market to cooperate with us.

Then, we will develop 45nm or even 32nm CPUs.

Hardware, software, both available.

As long as there is strong domestic support and all units use our own system for procurement, we will soon be able to achieve independence and complete self-control." After Su An said this, he even laughed.

"..."

"That's it? After going around for a long time, you just said this?

I thought you could give me some advice. Everyone can speak this kind of vernacular.

I would also say, can we create 5nm or 2nm CPUs?

But what's the use of boasting?

This is science, not feudal superstition. Just burn some paper and some incense, and you will have everything you want!" Ni Nanguang was greatly disappointed in Su An, and 99% of his previous goodwill was instantly dissipated.

"It's getting late, and your interview this time should be enough to write an article!" Ni Nanguang was ready to serve tea to the guests.

Seeing that Mr. Ni was about to see off the guests, Su An did not move, still sitting on the chair.

"It seems that you don't believe what I said?" Su An was about to reveal his cards.

"I can understand your mood, but scientific development is not as simple as treating guests to dinner. I hope that we can realize everything you want in your heart as soon as possible!" Ni Nanguang stood up after saying this, obviously not planning to talk anymore.

"Don't worry! What if I could achieve all this now?

If, at this moment, I could come up with the future I mentioned, would you choose to believe it?" Su An pointed to another trolley suitcase that had never been touched as he spoke.

"Click..." Just when Ni Nanguang really didn't want to talk, Su An opened his box.

"Actually, I am not a reporter, but a representative of a technology company.

This is a laptop developed by our company. The real purpose of my coming here today is to ask you to test the performance of this laptop.

After the test is completed, I hope you can write a 10,000-word recommendation article. Of course, you can also understand it as an advertising article.

We know that it is not a small expense for your son to study abroad.

Here is 100,000 yuan in cash, which is regarded as the reward paid to you by our company.

Because this product is not yet on the market and is completely confidential, I hope you will not disclose it to anyone.

As a person, you should at least have integrity." Su An put down the laptop and waited for Ni Nanguang's answer.

"..." Ni Nanguang couldn't accept it for a while.

How did you change from a reporter to a technology company representative?

I just talked for so long, was it a waste of time?

"Have you ever heard advice that is offensive to your ears..." Ni Nanguang did not refuse to help others test, but he was afraid that others would not like to hear the truth he told.

"This is the text of the contract. It is clearly written on it. If we change one word of yours, we are willing to pay liquidated damages of 100,000 yuan per word.

At the same time, there is a confidentiality clause here, please read it clearly before signing." Su An said and put the three-page contract text in front of him.

In the past, Ni Nanguang gave many interviews.

Especially in the days after Lenovo achieved great success in its business.

However, when it comes to those interviews, many of them have been deleted in large sections.

But compared to deleting, tampering with one's own meaning is more hateful.

This was the first time in my life that the other party made it clear that he would not change his original intention for an interview.

"Okay! I promise..." 100,000 yuan is not a small amount of money. And it is just to help the other party test the performance. This is simply too childish. He probably just wants to use his remaining fame to advertise.

"How long do you need?" Su An asked after watching Ni Nanguang read the contract.

"Tomorrow... come over this time tomorrow afternoon!" Ni Nanguang almost said, early tomorrow morning.

In fact, there is ready-made software on the market for this kind of testing.

It is estimated that including downloading, it will take less than an hour. Even if I have to write 10,000 words, I will work overtime at night and tomorrow morning will be enough.
