My science and technology museum

In the past, due to the technical limitations of photolithography machines, it was difficult for China to have an absolute say in the semiconductor market.

Basically, they mainly purchase overseas chips or have wafer factories produce them.

It can be said that he is controlled by others everywhere.

Key people can also terminate cooperation at any time.

Now the Chinese Academy of Sciences has successfully developed a top-level photolithography machine, and the process has directly reached 3 nanometers. It has successfully overtaken overseas chip production technology in a corner, and the benefits and conveniences brought by it are absolutely unimaginable.

What's more, this greatly enhances the people's pride.

As the popularity of domestic top-level photolithography machines continues to spread, major news media organizations such as China News Service have also conducted special reports after confirming the facts.

In addition to the immediate decision to shoot a documentary, we are also planning to increase the time for the evening news broadcast.

This shows the importance attached to it.

Many netizens were still a little skeptical after watching the video released by the Chinese Academy of Sciences. They couldn't believe that domestic lithography machine technology was advancing by leaps and bounds like a rocket.

It always feels a bit magical.

It wasn't until I found out that all the well-known official media accounts were closed to congratulate me that I completely dispelled the last doubt in my mind.

The only word left in his mouth was the word awesome.

certainly.

Many people regret this.

I regret that I did not believe the announcement of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, but chose to ignore it.

After all, if you had purchased fund stocks in related industries years ago and taken advantage of the unstoppable rise of the domestic semiconductor industry, you would have made considerable profits.

Especially those who used to ridicule others for buying funds now want to give themselves two big bucks.

What a crime!

However, although there is no regret medicine in the world, with the influence of top-level lithography machines that produce 3-nanometer chips, I believe there will still be a lot of room for growth after the Spring Festival and the market opens.

It depends on whether you have the courage or not.

In addition, compared with the excitement and excitement of netizens, domestic companies in related industries responded even more quickly and immediately took the time to hold a core strategic planning meeting to re-plan the company's subsequent development.

at the same time.

Shenzhen.

Yuelan Lake Villa.

After receiving the news, Peng Xiangqian drove here regardless of the Spring Festival holiday, reporting the latest situation to Ren Yuanwei to discuss the company's next move.

"Director Ren, you should have seen the news about the top domestic photolithography machines, right?"

In the living room.

As soon as Peng Xiangqian saw Ren Yuanwei, he spoke quickly. Although he appeared calm, the excitement in his heart could be seen from the emotions revealed in his words.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come at this time.

"Sit down and talk first."

Ren Yuanwei casually asked Peng Qianqian to sit down, picked up the tea that the nanny had just made on the table, and then said with a smile: "There are related contents everywhere on the Internet now, and I don't want to not see it."

"Yes, this incident was so sudden, completely beyond our expectations." Hearing this, Peng Xiangqian nodded in agreement.

Unlike other companies.

Warwick has a certain degree of cooperation with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, so they are more aware of the research progress of domestic lithography machines. Although they are full of confidence in this, they also understand that development in a few years will not catch up with overseas technical levels.

Now it is suddenly announced that the domestic lithography machine process has reached the 3-nanometer level, and the gap in the middle is really large.

It's like someone dragging the progress bar.

"I'm afraid that the Chinese Academy of Sciences has been able to achieve such a big breakthrough in the research and development of lithography machine technology in a short period of time, and this must have something to do with Xu Lei."

“We are so lucky to have such a talented partner!”

Peng Xiangqian listened to Ren Yuanwei's response, and then he seemed to understand something, and immediately exclaimed: "Director Ren, you mean..."

"Before, he suggested that we start designing 3-nanometer or even 1-nanometer chips as soon as possible. I suspected that he might have conquered the manufacturing technology of top-level lithography machines. Now it seems that this is the case."

Ren Yuanwei saw Peng Xiangqian's surprised face, took a sip of tea, and looked like he had guessed it.

"According to the information we received, Mr. Xu was indeed not in Binjiang City during this period." After being reminded by Ren Yuanwei, Peng Xiangqian suddenly realized.

I just felt like a big earthquake had erupted in my heart, and it was hard to calm down for a long time.

It is unimaginable that Xu Lei, in addition to being so strong in the fields of software technology and artificial intelligence, can also show his talent for developing sophisticated hardware equipment that transcends cognition.

Especially when I think back to my half-life experience, I just feel mediocre no matter how I look at it.

It can only be said that in the face of absolute talent, no matter how hard you try to catch up, you will never be able to cross the chasm.

While Peng Xiangqian was still immersed in this feeling, Ren Yuanwei's voice suddenly came to his ears: "How is the design of our new Tamron chip?"

"Currently, the 3-nanometer Tamron 980 chip has entered the simulation testing stage. If the top domestic wafer fabs can be completed as soon as possible and achieve large-scale production, we should be able to start tape-out soon."

As Peng Xiangqian finished speaking, Ren Yuanwei immediately fell into deep thought, seemingly deciding something.

After a pause of about ten seconds, he turned around and told Peng Xiangqian: "First hold a press conference to officially launch our Tamron 980 chip, and this chip will still be installed on mid-to-high-end models at the same time."

"Since domestic top-level photolithography machines are so popular right now, let's give it a try."

"Maybe we can add some fuel to the fire!"

Peng Xiangqian and Ren Yuanwei have worked together for so long that they know each other's inner plans very well, so after hearing this order, he immediately understood that Ren Yuanwei wanted to use Tamron 980 to create pressure on overseas chip companies.

You must know that well-known companies such as Pingguo, Qualcomm, and Sanxing are still designing chips with 5 nanometer specifications.

The idea is to take advantage of Warwick's inability to produce Tamron chips and regain the top spot in the performance rankings after the release of its own chips.

And strive to eat up this extra market share.

But now Xu Lei has developed a top-level photolithography machine and can produce the 3-nanometer Tamron 980 for Warwick. Once this chip enters the market, the products of any other chip company will instantly lose their color.

It is destined that the market share in your hands will be taken away.

Even if they cooperate with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the most they can produce are 5-nanometer chips.

There is no comparison at all.

Wanting to understand the reason, Peng Xiangqian didn't dare to delay. He didn't even bother to drink tea and stood up and promised: "Don't worry, Chairman, I will handle this matter myself."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Just as he took a step forward, he was stopped again by Ren Yuanwei.

"Wait a moment."

"Let the company send people to contact the Chinese Academy of Sciences and try to satisfy them if they have any needs."

"Okay." Peng turned around and nodded in response, then left here.

Because Ren Yuanwei is very aware of Peng Xiangqian's dedication to work, now is the time when passion is surging, and it is basically impossible for him to spend the Spring Festival holiday with peace of mind.

Only then did he acquiesce to Peng Xiangqian's arrangement.

Until Peng Qianqian's figure disappeared from sight, Ren Yuanwei was seen raising his head and drinking down the tea in the cup, with a playful smile on his lips and whispering a few words thoughtfully.

"I think some people will not be able to sleep for a long time in the future, and it will also give them headaches."

…

Just as Ren Yuanwei expected, Peng Xiangqian hadn't been as excited and happy as this time in who knows how many years, so much so that all he wanted to do was hold a press conference as soon as possible to officially launch the 3-nanometer Tamron 980 chip.

To this end, he not only increased the amount of red envelopes for starting work, but also asked his employees to go to work two days in advance to prepare for the press conference.

The design department was also required to complete the final verification of the Tamron 980 chip in the shortest possible time.

that's all.

With all work being carried out in an orderly manner.

The eighth day of the Lunar New Year.

Warwick held an online chip launch conference in the business venue of its headquarters building.

At the press conference, it was stated that the Tamron 980 will be manufactured by a domestic top-level photolithography machine for the first time, and will be installed on the high-end flagship phones and Star mid-range models that will be released later.

In addition, the exclusive chips required by its tablet and notebook computer brands are also being designed intensively.

For the audience in the live broadcast room of the press conference, they did not expect that Warwick would design a 3-nanometer chip so quickly. After careful consideration, they finally figured out the reason.

I understand that Warwick may have had contact with the Chinese Academy of Sciences for a long time.

Therefore, the 3-nanometer chip design was carried out in advance.

This immediately aroused a new wave of heated discussion. During the press conference, it was almost impossible to see the content of the barrage with the naked eye in the live broadcast room.

All I know is that the popularity is much higher than when the Tamron chip was first released.

And what makes everyone most happy is that this 3-nanometer Tamron 980 chip will also be installed on the Shining Star mobile phone, so that more people can experience the powerful performance brought by Tamron 980.

The essential.

This chip will be truly domestically produced.

Because of this, after the press conference, when discussing the top domestic lithography machines, this Tamron 980 chip will always be brought along.

“I’ve had such a great time during the Spring Festival. There’s been so much good news in a row, and I still feel like it’s all foggy.”

"Domestic chips have finally emerged. I have been waiting for this day for too long."

"Isn't it said that the development technology of top-level photolithography machines is very difficult? I feel that we have surpassed overseas technology without much effort."

"I want to know who made this top-notch photolithography machine. It's really powerful."

"I originally wanted to buy a Starlight phone equipped with Tamron 910, but it seems I can wait patiently for a while now."

"This wave must be supported. If such an advanced chip is installed on a mid-range mobile phone, the price/performance ratio will most likely become the highest mobile phone in history. Director Ren has certainly not forgotten us fans."

“I don’t know if sales will break records by then.”

"I heard that the main station will shoot a documentary soon. By then, we should know who the engineer of this lithography machine is?"
