Chapter 194 Super Computer
"Haha, Mr. Ni, this is our company's chief scientist, Professor Kruger. As for his true identity... you will know it later."
Chen Jie smiled and introduced this important member of the company to him.
In fact, even he himself doesn't know much about this tech geek, but he still respects his scientific research literacy very much.
The company is in short supply of talent, and the research field is all supported by him. It's hard to find employees like this who work hard and don't complain.
I don’t even know how Chen Weidong found him.
Everything is good, but his personality is a little weird. He spends all day in the laboratory and rarely appears in the public eye.
I don't even have any friends.
Perhaps this is one of the important reasons why he can master so many subject knowledge.
Ni Guangnan heard that he was the chief scientist of Infinity Company and couldn't help but look at him a few more times. However, considering that this was a private company and foreigners were involved in research, it wasn't too strange.
"Now most of the instruments here have been debugged by me. You need to find the appropriate personnel to take over this project as soon as possible. I also want to free up my hands for biological research." Professor Kruger spoke fluent Chinese and added
Keep complaining.
Li Yun and the others were all a little surprised. When they met this foreigner in the island country before, his Chinese was a bit awkward, but now it is so standard.
If you hadn't seen those eyes, you would have thought he was a native of China.
"This is the computer expert we brought, Academician Ni Guangnan. He came here just to see our company's chip technology."
Chen Jie smiled and briefly explained his purpose.
"Okay, come with me!" Professor Kruger shook hands with him and looked very excited when he heard that someone was finally going to take over the project.
Director Zhang followed behind calmly, also wanting to see what the scientific research level of Infinite Company was.
At the same time, I also want to know more specifically whether this foreigner is really capable.
Last time Chen Jie came to him and asked them to give the foreigner a legal identity, but he didn't agree and said he would think about it again.
The group of people came to a photolithography machine without waiting for Professor Kruger to introduce it.
Ni Guangnan rubbed his eyes, saw a workbench next to him, rushed towards it, and shouted at an electronic component: "This is a product that our computer lab is trial-producing. It is extremely difficult to manufacture. What's going on here?"
The finished product is ready right away!”
He is an elite and authority in the computer industry. He has been exposed to almost all computer-related projects in China. He is very familiar with many electronic components on the table. Even the specific interface parameters can be reported in one go.
.
Moreover, looking at the packaging process of these components, it is so precise that it is difficult to imagine that this would appear in a private company's laboratory.
Several of them are designed for use by supercomputers, which are often referred to as supercomputers. They are not manufactured on a large scale at all. A limited number of them are also kept as strategic reserves by the country.
But here, he saw an unimaginable amount, which shocked him!
From his perspective, as long as these parts and some commonly used electronic components are supplemented, two extremely advanced giant computers can be assembled!
And these giant computers, even in some key scientific research units, are not necessarily qualified to use them. Only when they participate in some major projects can they see their true appearance.
"Where did you get this? Don't say you made it yourself..."
Ni Guangnan looked shocked and turned to look at Chen Jie and the others, his tone trembling slightly.
"Well, it took me some time to make these finished products, and it was indeed a bit troublesome." Professor Kruger nodded slightly, as if he was talking about an extremely common thing.
Hearing his answer, Ni Guangnan pointed at him and was speechless for a long time. It was really unbelievable that he had manufactured these components by himself!
"Mr. Ni, Professor Kruger is a general scientist. He can skillfully operate almost all the equipment in our company's six major laboratories."
Seeing his stunned look, Chen Jie opened his mouth to explain.
Is this strange? As for being so surprised?
He didn't graduate from high school and couldn't understand the significance of mass-producing these parts, while Li Yun and other top soldiers were at similar levels.
Only Director Zhang, a professional with a science background, truly understands the importance of supercomputers and the strategic value they bring.
It is an architecture that uses large-scale parallel processing. It is the fastest, largest, and most expensive host and is mainly used in cutting-edge scientific research fields.
It took Ni Guangnan a while to digest this fact, and when he heard that this foreigner was a general scientist, he was immediately in awe and did not dare to make any excuses.
If someone had told him before that someone could have an in-depth mastery of professional knowledge in six major disciplines and was not limited to theory but could also put it into practical application, he would have never believed it.
How could there be such a genius? A genius?
But now, he believes it.
Moreover, regarding the chip, he was already seventy-eight percent convinced in his heart.
Sure enough, Professor Kruger led everyone to the lithography machine and carefully took out a semi-finished chip inside.
Then, he placed the chip on a chuck. This machine is called a probe station, which is specially used for wafer inspection.
It is also connected to a testing machine. When used together, the bare chip on the wafer can be tested for electrical parameters or radio frequency.
It can also screen good and defective chips.
After fixing the chip, Ni Guangnan started to use professional optical components to measure and calculate the transistors engraved on it.
I tested it several times in a row, and the results were all 105 nanometers!
It’s actually true!
After leaving the workbench, he was so excited that he almost couldn't breathe, but Director Zhang had quick eyesight and quick hands and hurriedly supported him.
"It's too powerful! Where did you get the photolithography machine?! Is it made in China?" Ni Guangnan asked several questions in succession before he could stand still.
Now he desperately wanted to know the answer.
According to his understanding, the current chip manufacturing technology of international semiconductor giants such as Intel, TSMC, and Qualcomm is only about 160 nanometers.
Infinite Company, a private company that has only been established for a few years, is already far ahead of them!
Simply dreamy!
He walked up to the lithography machine and touched the casing like a treasure. He found that it was a little old and even saw one or two scratches. It was obvious that this machine had been around for some time.
This made him even more puzzled.
"Are you sure that your chip was engraved with this machine?" Ni Guangnan opened his eyes wide, pointed at the lithography machine, and asked in disbelief.
He even had some suspicions that Chen Jie and the others got the chip from somewhere and deliberately put it in here, and then took it out temporarily to trick him.
Chapter completed!
