Chapter 30: Brother is awesome
At one point, Su Yuanshan woke up on time.
Yuanxin now implements a system of 9 to 6, resting for 2 hours in between, and actually working for seven hours. The two-day break has not yet been implemented, and it belongs to the natural 966.
Yang Yiwen and Sun Xihui, a royal sister and a mature woman, were sleeping soundly on the sofa, and the towel was half removed. Looking at their sleeping position, it was indeed not suitable for resting in the office of adults, but only for themselves, a "minor".
Su Yuanshan got up and went to the bathroom to wash his face. After coming back, he opened the folder and found a fax and fell into deep thought.
This fax was forwarded from Pan Xiaojun from SZ.
The unit that raised the head is Lianhua Electronics Co., Ltd., the famous UMC. The first semiconductor company established on the island opposite in 1980 has five branches. In front of it, TSMC, which is now determined to engage in professional OEM, is a younger brother. Later, TSMC has grown rapidly by focusing on OEM's advantage, and soon formed a battle of battle. In the next big fire, UMC suffered heavy damage to UMC's vitality. Not only did it lose its factory, but it also lost orders. Tens of billions of Taiwan dollars turned into a bubble, forcing UMC's five factories to regain their vitality and regain their strength.
Unexpectedly, bad luck came soon. UMC listened to ibm's nonsense and joined forces with Infineon, which was independent from Siemens to work together to overcome the 0.13 micron process at that time. What else can the three parties do besides being able to fight Landlords? So TSMC first developed 0.13 micron, and since then it lost the high-end market.
Entering the new millennium, the godfather of domestic semiconductors, Zhang Rujing (who uses his real name here to show respect) returned to Shanghai. In just two years, he built the most advanced wafer factory in China and quickly eroded the low-end market. He even once became the third largest foundry in the world. Although UMC has been proactive since then, all his brilliance was still covered up by TSMC.
UMC requested to purchase Yuanxin EDA and requested technical support fax before you. If you requested technical support, you must send someone to the factory. To put it bluntly, UMC's eyes are full of brilliance and chose to cooperate deeply with Yuanxin as soon as possible.
If Yuanxin is just a company focusing on EDA, it will be able to fly happily when faced with the invitation of such a semiconductor giant.
However, at this time, UMC has not yet transformed into a professional foundry and still maintains chip design business. With the "xx consensus" reached next year, China will open up a large number of markets to the other side. In other words, UMC, a wafer factory that can be designed and produced at present, will be Yuanxin's most direct competitor in the next few years.
After all, Yuanxin is not a company that only sells EDA. In the next few years, Yuanxin's main profit direction will still be based on chip design and derived fields.
With his lips pursed, Su Yuanshan took a deep breath and finally signed the name. He asked Pan Xiaojun to invite UMC representatives to make an appointment to meet in Xiangjiang. At the same time, he asked Pan Xiaojun to contact Wang Chaoxin, and the second-generation factory chose UMC.
Huajing's production capacity is not enough to meet the demand for pager chips - you should know that after the private platform is opened, the number of pager users will increase by nearly three million next year, twice the total in previous years. If Yuanxin's chips with independent property rights cannot even sell one million pieces, then don't play.
Similarly, if Yuanxin is afraid of the slags in the IC design industry of UMC, then don’t play.
At this time, the two people next to him also woke up. Yang Yiwen rubbed her eyes, looked at the time, walked to Su Yuanshan's desk, pulled a note and wrote, "When will I recruit two subordinates for me? Now I have to do everything myself."
"Now we need to recruit people who are proficient in English and understand foreign trade and patent law... where do you ask me to find them?" Su Yuanshan spread his hands and handed the fax document to Sun Xihui, asking her to pass it to Pan Xiaojun.
"Why don't you and Senior Brother Tang get married first." Su Yuanshan stared at Yang Yiwen and joked: "I have to trap you in the company first, so as not to run away from you when you are unhappy. I have to catch you blindly."
“…Stop nonsense, get money quickly.”
After Su Yuanshan signed the letter, he gave himself a glass of water and returned to the computer.
At noon, Qin Weimin said it was a rest, but in fact he was sorting out the information. During lunch, he said he had a good idea. Now, noon has passed, Qin Weimin has already written his ideas into the document and circulated it through the local area network.
This is an idea about cache. Su Yuanshan just took a quick look and felt that it was meaningless. Recently, there were too many ideas about the new architecture, and he was a little numb. But when he saw the end, he was suddenly stunned and slapped the table after a moment!
"Senior brother is really awesome!"
Su Yuanshan suppressed his excitement and strode towards the workplace.
At this time, Qin Weimin was using Yuanxin EDA to design registers and corresponding instructions to bypass existing patents.
*
"Senior brother is awesome! These instructions combine a magical stroke! It can greatly reduce the time to read caches." Su Yuanshan approached Qin Weimin and shook his shoulder and said loudly.
Qin Weimin turned around and was stunned for a moment: "Is there any?"
"Yes! As long as we apply for this patent, no CPU that imitates the arm architecture can bypass it!" The reason why Su Yuanshan said so affirmed is that in the continuous improvement of the arm architecture in later generations, there was also a patent similar to Intel338, but because arm is the kind with unlimited authorization, no one came to bump into its patent, so it was not famous.
"Senior brother is amazing!" Su Yuanshan praised again. At this moment, he even wanted to interfere in Qin Weimin's design and directly produced the first chip architecture in one or two months and launched it on the market.
However, reason immediately told him that he could not help the growth of the seedlings. Qin Weimin himself has the talent for chip design, especially architecture. He has carefully taken him for so long, not to make Qin Weimin look at himself in a daze and applaud himself - Qin Weimin will be the chief architect of mobile phone soc in the future!
You can guide Qin Weimin to avoid detours, but you must not interfere with your affairs.
After Su Yuanshan briefly described the consequences of several instructions, Qin Weimin immediately switched to the patented instruction set of arm for simulation. He soon came to the conclusion that if he wanted to complete cache-like read and write operations using arm's instruction set, he really had to use his own instructions.
"Why now apply for a patent? Is it international or domestic?"
"You can't apply yet. You have to complete our instruction set before you can apply together." Su Yuanshan took a deep breath, suppressing his excitement, but he couldn't hide his smile.
Patent barriers are important, but the most important thing is that Qin Weimin grew up.
