After drinking, my uncle was seriously prohibited by Su Yuanshan from driving. Zhang Kezhihao took a taxi and returned to the electromechanical department with Su Yuanshan and his son.

After arriving at home, her mother Zhang Xiuyun muttered and served warm mung bean soup to sober up the two of them. Finally, she sniffed Su Yuanshan’s cheeks. She confirmed that her son had not drunk alcohol before returning to the study to continue to sort out her work report - she also occasionally worked overtime.

"Xiaoshan, you said before that the probability of their agreement was very high. Where did they judge it?" The three of them left Jiangdu Building and went home directly. They just chatted briefly along the way, but did not discuss in depth. So as soon as they got home, Zhang Ke couldn't wait to ask his nephew.

"How to say..." Su Yuanshan pondered for a moment and explained slowly: "Unit Power is not a single piece of iron. Whether it is the wafer factory or the IC design department, we need us, and the IC department needs us even more. The only concern on the other side is only one..."

"Which point? Trade secrets?"

Su Yuanshan nodded: "By forcing it, right? The foundation of a technology enterprise is patents and technology. Patents themselves are acts of exchanging openness for legal protection, not confidentiality. Technology, as long as it cannot be learned outside, is considered a commercial secret. UMC is worried about now that our people have been stealing their escorts..."

My uncle pouted: "Then you said the other person would agree."

"I just said that the probability of agreeing is relatively high. You don't know if my uncle doesn't do technology. Technology can be cultivated or introduced. As long as they figure this out and do need us, they will probably agree. After all, in their opinion, it is difficult to learn technology, and secondly, we have no place to use it after learning it. It's like you have a small car driver's license, but you only have one bicycle at home, and it's useless to learn it."

Su Yuanshan lowered his head and took a big sip of mung bean soup: "And he will also discuss with us the authority, which can be moved and what cannot be done. Anyway, it's not as simple as saying "

Su Xinghe nodded when he heard this: "That's right, according to this analysis, the possibility of the opponent agreeing is indeed relatively high. What about our candidate?"

Speaking of candidates, Su Yuanshan immediately had a headache: "I just thought about the team leader, and it's really hard to choose others."

Yuanxin is taking a bit big now, and even if he has been recruiting people, he cannot meet the needs of the team. Not to mention that the people who have to send them have to consider all aspects, both politically and technically.

Su Xinghe also knew that Yuanxin was short of people now, but he didn't expect his son to choose a team leader and said in surprise: "Who leads the team?"

"Senior Brother Jianguo."

Su Xinghe was stunned and confused: "Kanguo? Can he do it?"

Chen Jianguo is now in the third year of research and has little speech and is a relatively dull type. Moreover, his programming level is not outstanding, and he is not very strong in architectural innovation... In short, compared with Qin Weimin, who is talented in architecture and Tang Wenjie who is talented in circuit design, he seems to be the most ordinary among the three brothers.

This year, Su Xinghe recruited three more master's students. Given that he had no time, Su Xinghe handed over the task of taking his junior brother to Chen Jianguo. Chen Jianguo originally started to work on microcontrollers. Su Xinghe originally thought that after adjusting Chen Jianguo's mission, his most ordinary disciple would complain, but he didn't expect that he would be very happy to take his junior brother.

Now Su Yuanshan stands up and asks Chen Jianguo to lead the team to UMC...

Faced with his father's doubts, Su Yuanshan smiled. Now, even his father does not understand Chen Jianguo himself - or in other words, even Chen Jianguo does not understand him.

Chen Jianguo is indeed not a pioneering talent. To put it bluntly, he is not good at innovation. But he has a unique skill that several fellow brothers can't reach - he is extremely sensitive to the microscopic world and is very good at discovering loopholes and bugs from subtleties. Therefore, he is very suitable for those tasks that require keen observation, such as debugging of embedded systems and improving the process of chip production lines.

If the trajectory does not change, then Chen Jianguo will respond to Zhang Rujing's call to Sin Chew in 1993. When Zhang Rujing persuaded the Sin Chew government to recruit 300 people in the mainland to enter the newly built wafer factory. Dozens of people followed Zhang Rujing back to Sin Chew, and Chen Jianguo was one of his most capable assistants.

"The specialty of Senior Brother Jianguo lies in his steady, meticulousness, and good at discovering and solving problems, not in his imagination. So in the microcontroller project team, he really limited his performance. But he had never had a suitable job before, so he could only get some experience." Su Yuanshan explained to his father with a smile: "Anyway, Senior Brother Jianguo's graduation has been completed. Dad, you can make a report and ask the school leaders to be kind enough to let him graduate first, so he will have some face when he goes out."

Su Xinghe was still a little hesitant: "It's okay to graduate early, I know that he is steady and careful...but... is it really OK?"

"Don't worry, Dad! When did I ever missed it?" Su Yuanshan looked at his father and said seriously.

This sentence undoubtedly gave Su Xinghe a reassurance - he knew that once his son used a serious tone, he would probably be sure to win. He nodded: "Then I will do ideological work for him tomorrow, but I don't know if he wants it."

"Don't worry, this matter will probably be discussed for a while."

The next day, Lin Yonggu and his team were familiar with Yuanxin for a day and did not mention cooperation. On the third day, Lin Yonggu told Su Yuanshan that he had reported to the company, but the company's senior management had to make various measures on the specific matters.

Su Yuanshan expressed his understanding. After Lin Yonggu revealed that he wanted to return as soon as possible, Su Yuanshan took out the installation CD and a set of video tapes for class and handed it to Lin Yonggu.

"In principle, you now design the chip with EDA, and you can directly drill through simulation. This is how Philips and Bell do it."

Lin Yonggu nodded and sighed softly: "Well, the two of them mainly design CMOS chips can be verified in advance on cpld (programmable logic devices), and it is not complicated."

The implication is that UMC is used to build more complex chips - what else is there besides CPU?

Su Yuanshan laughed: "It doesn't matter, you guys go back first. If you really find someone is needed, we will send you here immediately."

"Okay, then let's go back first - by the way, you have to go over on Las Vegas on the 21st, right?"

"To go through."

"See you then."

...

In the days after the three returned, Lin Yonggu would occasionally call or send fax to seek resources from EDA. Regarding the proposal of in-depth cooperation, he could not give any valuable information, and he could only say that the senior management was still discussing it.

After all, he is just the supervisor of the main factory in charge of IC design. UMC has five factories and a large unified department on it.

Su Yuanshan had expected this situation, so he was not in a hurry at all. As he said, as long as he had a mentality of rubbing, he could get surprises at any time.

Time flies, and October 17th is coming in a blink of an eye.

Su Yuanshan, Xi Xiaoding and Yang Yiwen boarded the passenger plane flying to New York.

Instead of joining the delegation, they flew directly to New York first and then transferred to Philadelphia - Xi Xiaoding wanted to go back to Penn University, where he had his personal belongings and some old friends wanted to meet him.
