Great Power Technology

Ye Zhou took a deep breath and slowly walked up to the main podium.

This is the first time he has faced a crowd of this size alone. The speeches he gave in school before were nothing compared to today.

Neither Huaji nor the official gave him any time to prepare and adapt. Only the boss said to him "Grow in the battle" before taking the stage.

The reporters in the audience were still talking a lot.

"What the hell? This is the executive vice president of Micro Fusion? Who is he? So young?"

"Is this planned by the genius boy? Who is going to search for my job number?"

"I've searched with someone. I'm level 21. I just joined the company this year. I graduated from a bachelor's degree. The school is average. I'm from 985."

"985 can't be called average."

"Compared to his position, 985 is really average. How many people work in their forties or fifties but still don't reach level 21. Doesn't he have internal connections?"

"I don't care, let's listen to what he has to say first."

Ye Zhou coughed. After testing the microphone, and there was no problem, he lowered his voice slightly and said to the audience:

"Hello everyone."

The audience immediately fell silent.

After taking another breath, Ye Zhou began his speech.

"I am the executive vice president of Micro Fusion Company, and my name is Ye Zhou. Today, on behalf of Micro Fusion and Huaji Company, I release our new product 'Yinglong EDA' in the field of chip design."

"The specific technical parameters and product details will be introduced by a dedicated person later. Here, I will only give an opening speech."

"Here are some things I want to say about this conference."

After a brief pause, Ye Zhou readjusted the microphone and said:

"When I was in primary school, my teacher taught me a concept: the 21st century is a century of information technology revolution."

“Juxtaposed with the first and second industrial revolutions, the information technology revolution has also completely changed the way human beings live their lives.”

“The computers, mobile phones, TVs, vehicles, airplanes, fire protection systems in rooms, range hoods in the kitchen, automated control systems in dams, missile warheads, and laser sights in tanks are all related to information. Technology goes hand in hand.”

"The core of these technologies is the integrated circuit - or to put it more simply, the chip."

"Without the chip, we're going to lose all these ways of life that have become integrated with us."

"Maybe you will say that I can drive a purely mechanical car, I can not use the range hood, and I can not use security cameras and smoke alarms. However, it is impossible for everyone here to say 'I can not use the Internet.' This sentence."

"Because the manuscript you write will be published through the Internet later."

“The Internet around the world is built on cellular networks, and modern cellular networks are inseparable from chips.”

"The chip is so important that without it we have to learn to survive again."

"But unfortunately, from the emergence of the transistor in the 1940s until the advent of the first integrated circuit chip in 1958, until now in the 21st century, the hegemony of integrated circuits has always been in the hands of the West."

“It’s not that we don’t have chips or chip technology, it’s just that our chip technology is too backward.”

"If we fall behind enough and the enemy arbitrarily restricts the export of a certain technology, a large company will face disaster."

"Some companies are forced to kneel down in front of their enemies in order to survive. This may not be said to be living in an ignoble way, but it should be said to be an expedient measure. No one can blame them."

"Hua Ji also faced the same pressure, but he is still standing. It's just that Hua Ji's knees are about to reach the breaking point."

“For countless days and nights, engineers from every corner of the country are racking their brains to think about the same question: How can we break down barriers?”

"How can we break the enemy's ever-pressing dome?"

"Today, on behalf of microfusion, I want to give you an answer."

"Maybe this answer isn't the best, but at least it's an answer."

"We didn't directly try to answer how to break the sky. We answered what kind of weapons we would need if we were to break the sky."

"Yinglong EDA, this is the answer given by Micro Fusion Company and also the answer given by Huaji."

"This EDA is the first integrated EDA in China. Its computing power, architecture, and functions are all ahead of Synopsys' existing products, and it is enough to support the chip design work of any company."

"At 8:30 this morning, during the negotiation between Huaji and Synopsys, the Western EDA monopoly manufacturer, Huaji suspended all cooperative relations with the other party."

"From today on, Huaji will no longer purchase EDA products from any foreign manufacturer. All chip designs will run on Yinglong EDA."

"From today on, Yinglong EDA will open authorization to all domestic national enterprises and implement a three-month free trial period. As long as you are a Chinese-owned holding company and your actual controller is an upright Chinese person, you can apply to Apply to Huaji.”

"If the chip industry wants to develop, there is still a long way to go."

"But from today on, we will put swords and guns into everyone's hands. With guns in hand, I hope all national enterprises will unite and try to pierce the sky together."

"From today on, I hope that no one in China will suffer from electronic hegemony again."

"That's all I have to say, thank you all."

The audience was silent for a moment, and then applause broke out.

If Ye Zhou's speech was more emotional than content, then his statement of "no longer purchasing any foreign EDA products" undoubtedly supported all emotions.

The reporters present clearly felt one thing.

This time, Hua Ji really planned to see red with his bayonet.

After Ye Zhou stepped down, product manager Lu Xu came to the main podium and began to introduce the product performance of Yinglong EDA.

More than 90% of the computing power utilization rate, chip design moved to the cloud, and all scenarios from design to testing were opened up. Concepts that seemed shocking to experts were thrown out one after another, and the already lively venue gradually became crowded.

Ye Zhou quietly blended into the crowd and saw different expressions on the faces of these reporters.

Some were surprised, some were inspired, and some reporters who truly understood technology even had tears in their eyes.

But there are still some people with disdain on their faces.

He saw a man wearing glasses arguing with the people around him with a red face.

"Chip manufacturing is chip manufacturing. Doesn't it count as an achievement if you solve the problem of chip design? Doesn't it count as progress if someone sticks a finger on your neck and takes all the trouble to open it? "

"It's hard to say whether this finger is broken or not. Even if it is broken, what will happen? They don't provide you with OEMs or photolithography machines. How do you make chips? Do you rely on imagination? You can brag. This is the first time I have seen this level of disregard for reality."

"What are you bragging about?! Haven't they made their EDA yet? The demonstration has already started, are you blind and can't see it?"

The man with glasses pointed at the big screen angrily, but the other person just smiled disdainfully.

“Who knows if it’s a PPT?”

"You fucking idiot. Anyway, Hua Ji said there will be a trial period. We will see the results in three months. Your face will be swollen by then!"

"Haha, so what if this Yinglong thing is really useful, it still means we can't make a chip."

Before he could finish his words, a hand suddenly pressed on his shoulder.

Looking back, Ye Zhou was looking at him indifferently.

Ye Zhou's hand gradually tightened, and then he said in a deep voice:

"Can't you make a chip? I can tell you, it won't take long. You will definitely see the first 100% domestically produced 3nm chip."
