I've done whatever I want

Walking out of the gate of SMIC Fab factory, Xin Tong had a smile on his face. Today's trip was not in vain. Not only did he finalize the tape-out of Full Mask, he also met his roommate Zhang Kaijun, whom he had not seen for many years. His career development in SMIC Yes, now he has become the operations director who can make decisions. With this relationship, Jinshi Technology will basically have no worries about the wafer production capacity for chip mass production in the future.

What surprised him even more was that he actually heard news about chip design guru Yuan Chengxu from Zhang Kaijun.

"Lele, if we can find Yuan Chengxu and persuade him to join our chip design team, we will have hope for Grade 0 automotive grade MCU chips!" Xin Tong raised his head and looked at the sky.

"Did Lao Yuan start his own business?" Tian Tianle was full of curiosity.

"Yes, Lao Yuan is a chip designer and is good at analog circuits. The company gave him some shares when he joined the company. Later he designed a hit chip and received tens of millions of profits from the company in dividends. With the money, he went out on his own and founded Xinwu Microelectronics, but I had long expected that his business would end in failure!" Xin Tong raised his head and shook his head.

"Why?" Tian Tianle asked, tilting his head.

"Lao Yuan is different. He believes in Buddhism and is a bit sociophobic. How can he lead the team to keep moving forward with such a personality? The most important job of a Team Leader is to build a team, not to separate from everyone and act like someone else. Looks like that." Xin Tong said.

"So that's it!" Tian Tianle looked like he was just waking up from a dream.

"I think the best place for Yuan Chengxu to belong is to join Jinshi Technology. We will provide a platform to carry forward his Buddha Circuit."

"I hope we can find him soon!"

“Right now, Jinshi Technology’s focus is on circuit debugging and layout design. We strive to submit the GDS files to the SMIC Fab factory by the end of August, so that we can embark on the Mount Kailash journey without any distractions.”

"Okay, when I get back to the company, I will organize everyone to review the progress immediately!" Tian Tianle said.

Xin Tong made no sound. He calculated in his mind that it would take a month and a half to make the Full Mask mask, and 2 months to process the wafer. It should be mid-December to get the wafer, which is about the same as after Wuji Semiconductor packaging and testing. It will be January next year, and EV and SV verification will take two months. Counting customer verification time, the mass production of Qianjiang Chao System's first MCU chip will not be until next summer at the earliest.

The company has its own MCU chip, and 2014 will definitely be a year of skyrocketing performance!
Back at the company, Tian Tianle brought together the core R&D personnel of the project team and once again reviewed the Sighting List and Bug List of the MCU chip.

"We must solve all bugs by the end of August!" Tian Tianle said after the Review Meeting.

"No problem!" Everyone agreed in unison.

When the first ray of sunshine in September shone on the earth, all the bugs in the MCU chip of the Counter War Project had been solved, and the GDS file was released to the Fab factory as scheduled.

Xin Tong and Tian Tianle also embarked on a journey to the mountains.

"The innocent blue of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau!" Xin Tong couldn't help but sigh as he stepped off the tourist bus bound for Taqin, Baga Township, PL County, as the September sunshine shone down without any obstruction.

"I haven't seen such a blue sky for a long time!" Tian Tianle nodded.

This is a paradise, spotless, but the sky in the magical city of Shanghai is always gray, and industrial pollution is everywhere.

"One lap of Mount Kailash is 53 kilometers. On the first day of our trek, we went to Zhire Temple to stay overnight. It is a great place to see Mount Kailash. We climbed it the next day. What do you think of going down the Zhuomala Pass at an altitude of 5700 meters?" Xin Tong turned his head and asked softly.

"Okay!" Tian Tianle nodded.

The next morning, the two prepared their equipment and embarked on a magical journey around the mountains with hiking poles. They started from the west side of Taqin Town, crossed the Baga Grassland to the west, and climbed up a section of the mountain. The view of Mount Kailash towards the ridge is completely blocked.

Looking around, the bare mountain ridges were empty, and a huge eagle occasionally flew over the blue sky, full of the breath of death.

Only the mischievous west wind whistled wantonly in my ears, as if telling the story of past and present lives. "Brother Xin, do you ever feel lonely?"

"No! Here, no one will talk to you about chip bugs, no one will talk to you about overtime and salary increases, and no one will worry about the skyrocketing housing prices and being unable to get into a car. From the first step on the journey to the mountains, we must continue to Empty yourself, solitude is a luxurious beauty!”

"When you put it like that, I feel like this is a magical heavenly road!"

"Are you a fan of Han Hong?"

"Hahaha!" Tian Tianle smiled innocently.

After laughing, he raised his voice and sang Han Hong's song Heavenly Road. The song sounded very ethereal in the wilderness.

"Lele, let's hurry up and try to get to Zhire Temple at noon. The sun is too strong in the afternoon and the ultraviolet rays here are very strong. Don't hurt your skin!" Xin Tong said.

"It makes sense. If you get tanned, you will become an African!" Tian Tianle stopped singing.

The two walked and chatted, and the pilgrimage was not difficult.

"Look, there's someone in front of you!" Xin Tong suddenly shouted in a low voice.

Looking in the direction Xin Tong pointed with his hand, Tian Tianle saw that the top of the hillside was covered with prayer flags and a group of people gathered there.

"Have we reached the first place of worship?"

"Hurry! Hurry!" Xin Tong finished speaking and quickened his pace.

After a while, the sacred Mount Kailash appeared on their right. At this time, Xin Tong also saw clearly the group of pilgrims, including Western tourists carrying exaggeratedly large mountaineering bags, and Nepalese wearing turbans. Pilgrims from India and other countries, as well as domestic tourists who rented horses from local Tibetans, many of them kowtowed and prayed in the direction of the sacred mountain.

When he reached the top of the hillside, Xin Tong looked pious. He faced the sacred mountain, his eyes were slightly closed, and his hands were clasped together.

During this pilgrimage, in addition to hoping to meet Yuan Chengxu, he also wanted to pray for the company's development and for the tape-out of the company's first MCU chip.

After stopping for a while at the first place of worship, the two continued to walk forward. The surroundings were still a desolate scene.

"Lele, the road to mountain climbing is difficult and even dangerous. You see, many people come to mountain climbing alone. What do they rely on to persist in completing the mountain climbing?"

"The Power of Faith!"

"Our chip design also relies on faith!"

"Yes!" Tian Tianle raised his head and looked around. The snow-capped mountains in the distance, the nearby streams, and these different scenery in the wilderness can actually be painted. After leaving the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, he will never see it again in his life. arrive.

As they were talking, they saw an old Tibetan man who was kneeling and walking around the mountain passing by them. He took three steps and knelt down, prostrating his head until his body was long. Every time he knelt down on the gravel-paved mountain road, he made a rustling sound. It hits people's eardrums in the vast and vast space, which is particularly shocking.

The old man had a devout look on his face and ignored the two of them. His movements were smooth, focused and calm. He fell to the ground, knelt down, stood up, fell to the ground again, knelt down again, stood up again...

Looking at the old man's retreating back, Xin Tong was very moved. He turned around and said to Tian Tianle: "This is the power of faith!"
