Technological power starts with upgrading lenses.

Chapter 34 Academician Wu is in a mess
I see,

After listening to Wu Lihong's words, Wang Haowen suddenly understood.

Right,

If it were me, if I heard the term domestic graphics card, I would definitely want to find out.

For a person who is engaged in semiconductor research, this is like a cat that smells a fishy smell and cannot bear the temptation.

In fact, Wang Haowen has been in this state of suffering these past few days.
He couldn't wait to see what secrets were hidden in this graphics card?
Who is the maker behind it?

Wang Haowen walked to a piece of equipment, took out the graphics card inside and handed it to Wu Lihong.

"It's this one. Actually, I don't know who made it... The other party just said it was a trade secret."

Wu Lihong nodded, took the graphics card and took a closer look. He suddenly had the same doubts as Wang Haowen.

Normally, even the smallest capacitor will have a certain mark on it. For some experienced practitioners, they may be able to identify where it was produced just by a series of numbers.

But there is not even a logo on this graphics card.

In addition to doing a good job in keeping secrets, Wu Lihong can't think of any other reasons...

It’s impossible to make every part by yourself, right?
Wu Lihong, who had not obtained any valid information, returned the graphics card to Wang Haowen, asking him to continue the experiment, and hoped that he would give him a copy of the results after the preliminary test.

"The result is out!"

Around lunch time, Wang Haowen knocked on the door of Wu Lihong's office, walked in and handed the test report to Wu Lihong's desk.

"The 28nm process, 980MHz main frequency, and 4GB DDR5 video memory are consistent with the news I have received before. Moreover, we found that the design process of this graphics card's GPU and the graphics memory particles are somewhat different from the graphics card models we currently know. The possibility of assembly and OEM is initially ruled out.”

Wu Lihong's brows suddenly jumped after hearing this, and he picked up the report and read it carefully.

After a moment, he put down the report with a puzzled look on his face and asked Wang Haowen: "Who is the person responsible for contacting you?"

"Kang Chi." Wang Haowen scratched his head, "You may not believe it, but he is the boss of Longteng Technology I mentioned to you last time."

"Longteng technology?"

"Yes, you may have forgotten that he wanted to use our equipment to build a 2D accelerator card."

After being reminded by Wang Haowen, Wu Lihong immediately remembered.

"What then?"

"Then I just ignored it, but about half a month ago, he suddenly came to the door and said he wanted to see you. He was stopped by the security guard at the door. I happened to be on duty that day..."

"Later, I introduced him to an undergraduate classmate of mine. Later, I called and asked my classmate that Kangchi had indeed gone to him to make a 2D accelerator card."

"Then a few days ago, he suddenly contacted me and asked me to help change the driver for this graphics card so that it can run."

After listening to Wang Haowen's story, Wu Lihong's doubts not only did not diminish, but actually increased.

"Is there any connection between that 2D accelerator card and current graphics cards?"

"There shouldn't be one, right?" Wang Haowen hesitated, "I've seen the design drawing of that 2D accelerator card. It's unremarkable. They are completely different from the same era."

Wu Lihong nodded, and then said to himself while deep in thought:

"28nm, 980MHz frequency, 4GB DDR5 memory..."

After a while, he raised his head and said to Wang Haowen: "Okay, you conduct the experiment according to the plan first, and then notify me when the graphics card can run."

"Ok!"

Wang Haowen turned around and was about to leave, but when he was about to go out, he suddenly thought of something. He stopped and turned back to Wu Lihong and said, "By the way, Kangchi and Longteng Technology can also be found on the Internet. Some time ago, they and Soni After a fight, the heat was quite high.”

"Did you have a fight with Soni?"

"Yes, Longteng Technology makes lenses."

"Making a lens?"

Wu Lihong felt that his thoughts were even more confused.

Where is this going?

and many more.

Let me sort out my thoughts.

A company that makes lenses suddenly wants to cooperate with our research institute to make a 2D accelerator card.

After hitting a wall here, we went to an electronics factory and successfully made a 2D accelerator card. Finally, they suddenly took out a serious graphics card?

What about playing horror games?

In Wu Lihong’s impression, the only domestic company that could possibly manufacture such a graphics card is Jingjiawei.

But they are a military-industrial company, how could they allow such a thing to appear here?
Ok……

There is also Changan Microelectronics Technology Research Institute,

They may also build it, but they are also military industrial companies that specialize in producing chips for the aerospace industry, so they are not considered.

As for the civilian field...

If you have to say it, SMIC and Huahong Group are also possible.

Needless to say, he is the vice president of technology research and development at SMIC. It is impossible for him not to know that the company has launched a GPU project.

As for Huahong Group?

The CPU hasn't been finished yet, so they're starting to study graphics cards again?

It doesn't feel realistic either.

And it was impossible for him to not hear about such important news.

Moreover, both SMIC and Huahong Group are stronger and have more advanced equipment than the Microelectronics Research Institute of Jiangsu University.

If this graphics card was really made by them, why would they want to find Wang Haowen again?
Or is it simply customized by a domestic company and manufactured by a foreign manufacturer?

Who is this Kang Chi?
No, my thoughts are even more confused...

Wu Lihong suddenly felt that he was getting old?
-
Time is like an arrow, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle.

The time has quickly come to the last day of December,
Tomorrow is New Year's Day, and a new year is about to begin.

However, the Chinese people’s affection for New Year’s Day is far less profound than that of New Year’s Eve.

Just like those who have celebrated lunar birthdays since childhood, on their birthdays in the Gregorian calendar, they receive birthday wishes from major apps.
superficial,

I don't have to feel it.

However, the atmosphere in Longteng Technology's conference room was particularly warm.

Since Kangchi built the second lens production line, Fang Qiming has been working as a hands-off shopkeeper. Fang Qiming has not seen Kangchi for almost half a month.
I don’t know what this mysterious boss has been up to lately.
He only knew from the finance department that Kangchi bought a car and paid a deposit of 10 yuan for driver development. He didn't know what the specific driver was.

As usual, at the end-of-month summary meeting, Kang Chi showed up on time. Everyone should take advantage of this rare opportunity to give a good work report.

2.9 lenses, 524 million turnover, 246.4 million net profit.

This is the answer sheet submitted by Daqin Optics in December.

"Generally speaking, production and sales this month are normal. However, after adding a production line, the production capacity cannot keep up, and the backlog of orders is still very serious."

Fang Qiming, standing in the middle of the conference room, finished his report with a high expression.

Immediately there was warm applause below.

"Good job."

Kang Chi also nodded to Fang Qiming with satisfaction, which immediately calmed down his still a little uneasy heart.

Since becoming the person in charge of Daqin Optics, Fang Qiming has become a powerful figure in the company, supervising more than 50 people.

Isn’t this better than filming on a set?

Smaller crews may not have so many people.

In addition to the power, after the second production line was put into production, Kangchi gave him another salary increase, which was raised to 1.5 per month, which was also the highest in the company.

Therefore, Fang Qiming worked hard to help Kangchi keep the factory in order.

Kang Chi did not allow him to work overtime, so he would study management and lens design painstakingly after he returned. He would also often discuss issues with several technicians in the factory in private.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Fang Qiming finally plucked up the courage to show off all his hard work during this period:

A lens designed by him himself!
