The richest man starts with a blind box

Chapter 559 Is this really a natural material?

The bomb thrown by the Jiangnan Group was seen by ordinary people as a pleasure, but professionals began to study the requirements given, and then muttered, "Is there really such a perverted material in the world?"

And the world's major related chip companies are already in meetings.

"Everyone, you are all professionals. What do you think of the material mentioned in Jiangnan Science and Technology's reward?" The technical director asked a very straightforward question at an internal meeting of the technology department of Intel Corporation, a leading company in the global chip industry.

"This is a scam. There is no such material in the world! And this is a material thrown out by a Huaxia company. I think this is a complete scam! I don't believe that Huaxia can come up with such weird materials." A serious man with glasses and a cross on his body said in the same serious tone.

This is a well-known old antique in the research department. Its thinking is rigid, but it has rich experience. The development efficiency is 3~5 times that of other employees, and it is often possible to see where the bug is at a glance. It belongs to the company's research and development. The main force.

So in the eyes of people like him, this kind of weird chip material is impossible!

"I don't think so!" Another man in a suit said, "Although Jiangnan Group is a Chinese company, it has only been established for two years. But they have indeed developed some technologies in memory chips. These We have not been able to decipher the technology until now, but what is certain is that it is a material technology, so Jiangnan Group has accumulated a certain amount of technology in materials!"

"According to the data released by Jiangnan Group, this material should not be produced under human control, but should be a material developed by accident, forming this natural chip characteristic!"

"As we all know, chance is God's domain. Too many technologies in this world are driven by God's chance, so it is not impossible for God to occasionally give a chance to the Chinese."

"The most important thing is that there is no need for the Jiangnan Group to do such a thing. I really can't see the effect of them deliberately promoting a false material, let alone offering a reward of 1 million US dollars. There is no benefit for a company!"

"So I believe what the Jiangnan Group said. I think the truth is that the Jiangnan Group produced this special material by accident, but God's gift is nothing more than that. Huaxia people have no ability to develop corresponding chips at all. In the end, he could only throw this material on the Internet in embarrassment, solicit global technical assistance with a huge reward, and even take the initiative to send relevant materials to our company, trying to let Intel help him develop the architecture, which is simply ridiculous. "

"Hey, you can't say that, and you can't blame others for being ridiculous. It can only be said that this is the tragedy of a weak country!" Another researcher waved his hand and said pitifully, "So, this kind of technology and materials still need to be handed over." Only for a great country like ours can it play its true value!"

"So, both of you think this material is real!" The person in charge of the technical department asked with a frown.

"This is Schrödinger's cat. Before we see the real materials, no one can be sure whether this cat is dead or alive!" The researcher in a suit said, "If this cat is dead, it will naturally be with us It doesn't matter. But in case the cat is alive and the Chinese people have indeed mastered this magical material, then it is necessary for us to also control this material and fully grasp the characteristics of this material, otherwise if the Chinese people If the corresponding architecture is really completed, then we will be surpassed by the ridiculous Chinese people in the production and manufacturing technology of cutting-edge chips."

"Do you think this material may surpass our chips in the future?" the person in charge asked.

"It's not possible, it's inevitable, as long as this material exists and solves the structural problem!" The researcher in the suit continued, "I spent last night studying all the current materials."

"Assuming that all these data are true, the potential of this special material is quite terrifying. The number of semiconductors is equivalent to that of a 48-nanometer process lithography machine, and this material is doomed to have far more potential than our current The top chip has more computing power!"

"Secondly, according to the published conductive data of this material, the power of this material is about 1/3 lower than that of our artificially manufactured chips, that is, the energy consumption and heat generation are reduced by more than 1/3. How terrifying it can be, I believe you are much clearer than me!"

"There is also the magical circuit connection between these semiconductors. At present, the most advanced architecture we have designed, there are only three wires connecting the semiconductors. This does not mean that three wires are the optimal solution, but it just means that with our current human Design capabilities, as well as the characteristics of semiconductors, can only support chips connected by three wires."

"But now, the power of this material is only 1/3, and at the same time it is born with 5 connecting wires, which means higher computing possibilities. If this architecture is really invented, even if the number of semiconductors is the same , The computing power of this new architecture chip is at least twice as high as ours!"

"The last thing is the damn price of the Chinese people. These barbarians only know how to use the price to seize the market, and this barbarian country has the highest quality but the lowest cost skilled workers in the world. The cost of their products is naturally lower than that of the Chinese people. We're much lower."

"Otherwise those guys in the production department wouldn't have the damn idea of ​​going to China to build a factory."

"These Huaxia people don't even know that keeping the market price high is the best choice to maximize profits!"

"If they really develop this kind of chip, they will surely sell it at a price lower than ours in the future"

"Everyone, imagine that after a few years, the Huaxia people come up with a chip with several times the computing power of ours, but only one-third of our power consumption, and the price is about 20% lower. How will the market choose? Will we have a future for Intel?" As soon as this person finished speaking, the entire conference room was filled with fear, feeling that this scene was simply too terrifying.

"You are completely alarmist!" The old man who spoke first snorted coldly, "I went to the latest technical exchange meeting held by Nikon last month. At this meeting, Nikon has already presented a set of A brand-new lithography machine solution, it is said that this set of solutions can already reach the 40-nanometer process."

"Similarly, TSMC and ASML also produced similar products, but ASML guaranteed that it would be able to produce the first finished product for sale in 05. Although Nikon would be later, it was only a matter of 1. At that time, there will be 06-nanometer lithography machines all over the market, and this special material produced by the Chinese people is no longer behind!"

"And if, as you said, this is a special material produced by accident, then this material cannot be improved, and he can only have so many semiconductors in his life, so what is there to worry about? Even if the Chinese really develop it, it may be more than 10 years later, and we may already have a 20-nanometer lithography machine!"

"You know that Chinese people have to wait 10 years? What if they succeed in only 5 years?"

"Also, don't forget the issue of energy consumption. If the energy consumption is only 1/3 of ours, then the other party can connect three chips in series, or make a larger chip, so as to enhance the computing power of the chip."

"In that case, unless we can achieve a 10-nanometer manufacturing process, we will still be unable to surpass our opponents in terms of performance." The suit retorted.

"You estimated this based on the fact that the data given by the Chinese company is completely true, but then again, I absolutely do not believe that there will be such weird materials in the world. It is impossible to form large-scale micro-semiconductors. Yes, it's not scientific!"

Before the debate between the two was over, a secretary walked in hurriedly and whispered a few words into the ear of the person in charge of the technical department. stop arguing,

"Everyone, there is no need to guess whether Schrödinger's cat is dead or alive!" The person in charge sighed and said, "Professor Jones, the head of the Department of Computer Science at Harvard University, publicly held a press conference inside the college. He said that he was invited to China by the Jiangnan Group the day before yesterday and saw that miraculous material with his own eyes."

"At the same time, he also verified the data of this material with his own hands. All the material data provided by Jiangnan Group are true and reliable. The Chinese have indeed mastered this strange and magical material, and even named him Jingjing! "

"Professor Jones confirmed? Is this news reliable?" the old man couldn't help asking.

"Mr. Hamilton, I remember that you and Professor Jones were former colleagues. If you have any doubts, you might as well call him and ask him!" The person in charge said, and this Professor Hamilton was not polite, really He took out his phone and called Professor Jones on the spot.

After the two chatted for more than 10 minutes, the conversation was terminated early because Professor Jones' cell phone was dialed by another person.

"The thing is true!" Hamilton sighed and said, "Professor Jones conducted data experiments on this material, which confirmed the authenticity of these data."

"Is this really a natural material?" The person in charge asked quickly.

"No, Professor Jones said that he cannot be sure whether this material is naturally formed or acquired, but he can be sure that the surface of this material does have a layer of semiconductors that are connected according to the law. He does not believe that humans will deliberately create To make such a semiconductor connection, because it needs to be built from scratch, which is something that a lunatic would not do!"
