Tech Hammer

Ning Wei agreed simply, but Lu Changbin hesitated.

Can't it just be a half-finished product?

There is another very important point about EDA software, that is, whether anyone is willing to use it, especially those big manufacturers, whether they are willing to use it.

Because many aspects of EDA software are dependent on major chip manufacturers.

From design to simulation, major manufacturers need to provide massive amounts of data to correct the algorithm of the software itself, and continuous iterative upgrades can truly realize the application value of the software.

Of course, if the EDA software designed by Ningwei can really get to that point, the investment of tens of millions will be small. Lu Changbin will not hesitate to apply for national high-precision key project support funds, and he is very confident that he will be able to apply.

However……

"Professor Lu, please finalize the contract first. After I study it, we will sign it this afternoon. Then I will start to form a team. It's urgent. I heard from Brother Yu that you have to go out again tomorrow." Ning Wei urged.

The little guy pressed too hard. Lu Changbin gritted his teeth and said directly: "Okay, you can go back first. I will find someone to draw up a contract and ask someone to send a copy to you later. Come over and sign the contract in the afternoon. I I will prepare a list of laboratory researchers and their resumes for you, and I will do the work on whoever you like."

…

Beijing, Yanbei University.

Tian Yanzhen and Lu Dongyi were chatting with Ning Wei in the office.

"Did you read the interview the boy gave in the provincial capital yesterday?"

"Um."

"What does this young man mean? With such a good talent, he has no interest in developing in number theory in the future?" Tian Yanzhen asked dully.

"Is it modesty? But I think it's good to do applications. It's true that number theory doesn't require so many people." Lu Dongyi shrugged and answered.

"It's true that you don't need so many people! But you need the top mathematical geniuses. Whoever can make a breakthrough in the field of number theory in this era will definitely become a real master." Tian Yan really hates it. He glanced at his disciple steelily.

Very annoying.

Tian Yanzhen felt that he could not understand these young people more and more.

A group of not-so-talented students are very interested in number theory. He often needs to persuade these doctoral students to switch to applied fields, at least they will not achieve nothing in the future.

However, these children who have proven their talent in mathematics seem to have little interest in number theory. They only want to do applied mathematics and cannot get back.

Just thinking about it makes me feel tired.

After being recommended by Lu Dongyi, Tian Yanzhen originally thought that Ningwei could inherit his mantle in the future and conduct in-depth research in the field of infinite Riemannian manifolds. Now it seems that this is not his ambition.

"Oh. But you must also be interested in studying number theory." Lu Dongyi said the truth.

Then he took out his cell phone from his pocket.

My phone vibrated just now. There should be a WeChat message.

Lu Dongyi’s mobile phone settings are very particular. All apps do not have permission to send messages. Only a few people in WeChat have permission to send messages, such as his parents, the mentor in front of him, and a few senior brothers. Wait, everyone else has set up messages so as not to disturb him. He will occasionally reply when he sees it, but most of the messages are dormant in WeChat.

"Huh? You said Cao Cao, and Cao Cao sent a message. The news about my junior brother asked me to help him check whether there are any pitfalls in a contract." Lu Dongyi blinked and said.

"Contract? What contract? Send it to me for a look..."

"Wait a minute, I'll forward it to Director Qin of the Law School first."

Two minutes later, Tian Yan's face turned dark and angry.

"What's going on with Ning Wei? Didn't you say that you agreed with him that he would take my postgraduate entrance examination this year? I have already reserved my quota for him, and now he wants to sign this kind of contract with Jiangda Software Laboratory? Develop EDA software ? Why is he doing this?"

"Yeah!" Lu Dongyi was silent for a long time, lowered his head, edited the information, and then replied: "EDA software should of course be used for designing chips."

"I know it's for designing chips, but Ning Wei is a student in the School of Mathematics, and isn't he still designing turbulence algorithms? What the hell is this contract?" Tian Yanzhen asked resentfully.

Soon WeChat buzzed again.

Li Ning on WeChat told Lu Dongyi sincerely why he decided to postpone the postgraduate entrance examination for a year.

Lu Dongyi was a little confused, thinking about Lao Tian's annoyance at this time, and decided to take this matter down. Then he raised his head and looked at Tian Yanzhen and said, "Oh, um, I misunderstood. My junior brother didn't sign up this year. He I plan to take the postgraduate entrance examination next year after graduation. This is because there was a communication problem between me and him."

"In this case, there will be more than a year before the postgraduate entrance examination next year. Maybe the junior brother thinks that one year is enough for him to complete the software and then take the postgraduate entrance examination in one heart. People who are capable are not willing to waste time. After all, his current knowledge reserve is He said that professional courses require almost no review. Judging from his papers, English is not a problem." Lu Dongyi continued to explain to Ning Wei.

"What? Didn't sign up this year? Have to wait until next year?" Tian Yanzhen stared at Lu Dongyi, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

"Ahem, well, it's actually quite tiring to take the postgraduate entrance examination directly in your senior year..."

I can't continue to make up lies. For others, it may be tiring to take the postgraduate entrance exam directly this year, but for Ning Wei, there is a high probability that there will be no problems if he takes the postgraduate entrance exam directly this year.

"Ask him! Is he coming or not?" Tian Yanzhen asked fiercely.

Lu Dongyi quickly sent a message.

"Come on, he said that even if his legs are broken next year, he will still crawl back!"

"Hey, Director Qin sent me his opinion, saying that there are no obvious pitfalls in the contract, but he suggested using more rigorous legal language to define the concept of software completion. He has already helped the junior brother to change it. So Director Tian, ​​you Look, everything is developing in a good direction." Lu Dongyi said matter-of-factly.

Then he forwarded the opinions of the master of Yanbei University Law School to Ning Wei.

"I...forget it, you find an opportunity to tell him that when you do mathematics, you have to do mathematics! Don't think about messy things all day long. EDA? Will this thing be used after it is designed? Jiang Da How much promotion cost is the laboratory willing to pay? How much promotion cost can it pay! Playing the piano randomly! Is it meaningful to waste a year? "

"Also, if you can't come next year, don't come!"

After saying that, Tian Yan left Lu Dongyi's office angrily and returned to his own office.

After the tutor left, Lu Dongyi continued to sit in his seat calmly and send messages to Ning Wei.

"Your future mentor, Professor Lao Tian, ​​is angry."

Ning Wei quickly sent a confused expression, with a big question mark on his face.

"He thinks you're not doing your job properly and wasting a year on EDA? Does that thing have any application value?"

"The cost for IC design practitioners to relearn is directly proportional to the difficulty of promotion. The main reason why domestic EDA cannot develop is this problem. If the software is not as easy to use as others, designers have to change their usage habits and relearn. No one Will be willing."

Ning Wei replied again: "Differentiated competition."

Lu Dongyi thought for a while and replied: "You have to think about this carefully. The applicable fields of special chips can be very broad, but if there are no big manufacturers willing to cooperate, promotion will still be difficult. This involves many problems. For example, for motherboard manufacturers In other words, adding a chip to a motherboard with mature technology requires overturning the entire composition. Differentiated competition cannot break away from the existing framework."

"Senior Brother Lu, do you think computers and mobile phones in the future will look like what they are now? Conventional things are not necessarily the best, and habits may not be something that cannot be changed."

This involved a philosophical debate. Lu Dongyi decided not to waste his brains and simply replied bluntly: "What Director Tian and I mean is that if you put all your energy into mathematics, your future achievements will definitely be better than half-hearted tinkering. Something bigger.”

Soon, the news from Ning Wei almost made Lu Dongyi vomit blood.

"Senior brother, don't you feel tired from doing math research every day? Wouldn't it be nice to change your brain, adjust your body and mind, and earn a little money to replenish your dry wallet?"

"Okay, let me give you a suggestion. If you are really confident, when the project team is selecting people, don't choose those whose resumes look too perfect. Choose those who look more average and more obedient."

"Thank you, senior brother!"
