Chapter 253: A 200 Billion Project

If you think about it with your ass, you know that if you are thinking about the design of carbon-based chips now, then the distance from the mass production of carbon-based chips is really not even one step away.

However, with such a big progress, why did their company not receive the news until today?

It's impossible for such a big breakthrough to grow out of the ground suddenly, right?

Zheng Ren immediately asked his assistant to call out the company's previous investigation report on domestic carbon-based chips.

Regarding the development of carbon-based chips, Warwick has a professional internal investigation report, which will regularly track breakthroughs in theory and technology, and will also evaluate the impact of this technology and theory on carbon-based chips after their emergence.

In the latest report, Zheng Ren turned to the last page and saw the conclusion:

"At home and around the world, carbon-based integrated circuit technology is still immature, and it is estimated that it will take at least three to five years before the real mass production is practical. The chip crisis encountered by the company cannot be placed on the breakthrough of carbon-based chip technology... "

This proves that he was not wrong before.

It is impossible for the latest technological breakthroughs to bring carbon-based chips to mass production so quickly.

"And according to Academician Liu, the energy exerted by the edges and corners in this movement is not small?"

Zheng Ren closed the report, sat on the office chair and fell into deep thought.

It took a long time before he picked up his cell phone and dialed Father Chen's number.

the other side.

Comrade Chen was still dealing with the affairs established by the EDA design department, and he was a little surprised to receive a phone call from Zheng Ren.

Angular Brain-Computer Center has a cooperation project with Warwick, but the two companies don't have much entanglement other than that.

Comrade Chen thought about it for a while, and quickly guessed the purpose of the call, probably for the carbon-based chip.

Just as he thought, after a short greeting, Zheng Ren asked about carbon-based chips:

"I just heard a little rumor that Mr. Chen has a carbon-based chip business?"

"Carbon-based chips..." Father Chen also hesitated, whether to disclose the current progress to Zheng Ren.

If the boss of another company came to ask, he would definitely not say anything.

But Huawei naturally wants to stand together with carbon-based chips. In the future, maybe we can cooperate and invest in the research and development of carbon-based chip production lines and related equipment.

In the past few days, the company has formed a team to predict various aspects of the carbon-based chip industry.

Among them, for the production line construction of carbon-based chips, the result given is that it is estimated that R\u0026D and manufacturing of a 14nm process carbon-based chip production line will consume nearly 200 billion funds!

A lot of this money has to be spent on research and development of new equipment. After all, the manufacturing process of carbon-based chips is completely different from that of silicon-based chips before etching.

Naturally, these steps all required new equipment to accommodate the new production process.

In addition, the development of these new devices has to be accelerated, and a large number of experiments are carried out to save time, and the development cost is naturally higher.

The only thing that makes people feel a little more comfortable is that after etching, the production process of carbon-based chips and silicon-based chips is close, and the equipment and site can be used without drastic modifications.

But the price of the equipment itself is not cheap, plus the factory building, land...

These things are gathered here and there, and the number has already exceeded 200 billion.

And it's still low.

If the development of the equipment does not go well, I am afraid that this number will increase to tens of billions...

This is definitely the most expensive business Prismatic has ever had!

200 billion, if the edges and corners are sold, they can definitely be sold at this price.

But it's really impossible for Prism to take out such a large sum of money.

Brain-controlled prosthetics are very profitable, and the assembly volume of Kuafu's first generation is also good, but so far, they haven't even used up the three billion fund on the opposite side.

Although the cash cow of mecha IP is stable, and each batch of models has been paid for by someone, the total business scale so far is only about two billion dollars.

And Baize Image's monthly turnover is only 200 to 300 million, and the advertising business of Baize Search has not yet officially launched...

Unless the photoacoustic detection business matures, it will be difficult for Angle to spend such a large sum of money.

In other words, the project of putting carbon-based chips into production must select partners from outside, and more than one partner is needed.

Huawei is naturally a high-quality choice compared with other domestic companies...

Thinking of this, Chen's father screened the information in his mind, and selectively revealed some news: "We do have a plan for carbon-based chips, mainly because the company has made some breakthroughs in this area of ​​technology research. If the final results are confirmed, it should play a role in promoting the development of carbon-based chips."

Although the words were quite modest, Zheng Ren's heart was already filled with huge waves at this time, and he put these words together with Academician Liu's words to confirm them.

There is no doubt that Angular has led this technological breakthrough. No wonder Academician Liu said that he should find Angular Technology for the specific details!

As for why Prism, an Internet and brain-computer company, was able to make major breakthroughs in the field of carbon-based chips, Zheng Ren felt that it should be related to the genius behind Prism.

In other words, all the technologies of Angular are inseparable from Chen Shen.

Sometimes he is really envious, why wasn't such a genius born in their family?

Zheng Ren was eager to learn more, and he continued the topic.

"Can you tell me what level of breakthrough it is?"

"I heard that you are working on EDA software?"

Combining these two questions, it is obvious that he has already guessed the technological progress of Angular.

Father Chen pondered for a while, and said, "We are indeed developing EDA software for carbon-based chips."

For a moment, as if a current passed through Zheng Ren's heart, he suddenly thought of the new equipment project that he had just reported to Liguo Zhongke...

I'm afraid this technological breakthrough has really made carbon-based chips a reality...

call!

Inexplicably, when Zheng Ren thought of this, he felt that a piece of stone had been removed from his body, and he felt much more relaxed.

"I hope to have a face-to-face chat with Mr. Chen to discuss cooperation in the field of carbon-based chips. I have no requirements for time and place."

Huawei must keep up with this wave of carbon-based chips!

Father Chen looked at his schedule, and he chose a date without being too polite: "Then let's meet in Shanghai on June 1st. Our photoacoustic intelligent testing center will just be completed that day."

According to the current construction progress, the intelligent testing center will be completed in a few days, and a ceremony will be held at that time...

Zheng Ren agreed: "No problem."

Addicted to reading, unintentionally coding...

"The Great Architect Reborn"

Architect Lin Lou often asks this question, why are so many great buildings such as the Bird's Nest, Daxing Airport, and the China Grand Theater designed by foreigners?

Reborn in the 1980s, Lin Lou planned to snatch these honors from foreigners.
