Chapter 282 Official delivery, Asmai is anxious

The intelligent driving system test of the Pioneer Inspiron series solid-state battery new energy vehicles was a complete success, making the faces of the entire laboratory members filled with smiles and joy.

Bask in the joy of being recognized.

When the artificial intelligence laboratory was originally established, it was mainly for the development of artificial intelligence models.

As a result, their project was shut down not long after it started.

Instead, he devoted all his efforts to training the artificial intelligence model developed by Xu Yun.

Although in the end this model grew rapidly, directly making the laboratory the most powerful artificial intelligence research center in the world.

But everyone knew in their hearts that this was not their fault, but all relied on Xu Yun.

Fortunately, under this situation, Xu Yun announced a new project, and the laboratory changed to develop intelligent driving technology systems.

They knew exactly what this project represented to the laboratory and was a perfect opportunity to prove their capabilities.

So everyone was very attentive after taking over.

He didn't even ask Xu Yun for help in the middle, and relied entirely on his own efforts.

Nowadays, the emergence of Linsi smart car chips, coupled with the test results of the Lingyue series of intelligent driving systems, can be regarded as proof of their strength.

He is qualified to take up the responsibility of the company's key laboratory.

The previous efforts were not in vain.

Xu Yun is also aware of the pressure on Yan Kaiming, Zhong Lingling and others, so he is very satisfied with the performance of this test.

At noon, they even took the initiative to treat guests to dinner to celebrate the complete success of the laboratory’s intelligent driving project.

However, it is worth mentioning that Xu Yun did not stay in the laboratory for long.

In the afternoon, we returned to Haoyuan Community.

As for the coming time, the laboratory needs to cooperate with the Trail Blazers brand to promote the Inspiron series and provide technical support.

This ensures that the Lingyue series will be officially launched for sale next month.

And just when the Pioneer Lingyue was on the right track and was about to bring surprises to users and the entire automotive industry, Xu Yun also received good news from the Academy of Sciences.

During this period, China's first extreme ultraviolet lithography machine has been running, producing many chips for the Trailblazer automobile brand.

The supply of the first batch of cars can basically be guaranteed.

At the same time, the result was that the first domestic extreme ultraviolet lithography machine finally passed the test.

The chip defect rate is always less than 2%.

Under this circumstance and the situation of overseas semiconductors, the Academy of Sciences officially announced that a delivery ceremony will be held.

Delivered the first extreme ultraviolet lithography machine to Loongson International in Shanghai.

Originally, Xu Yun had no plans to leave as Chen Shihe's due date was approaching, but after all, he was the overall person in charge of the entire project.

It would be inappropriate not to attend such an important occasion.

Coupled with repeated invitations from Hou Shengchang, president of the Academy of Sciences, and Luo Changhui, director of the Institute of Optoelectronics Technology, they finally agreed to take a day to go to Shanghai to attend the delivery ceremony.

Due to the previous practices of companies such as ASML and Qualcomm, it has caused huge repercussions around the world.

It can be said that everyone is paying attention to this extreme ultraviolet lithography machine.

Therefore, the delivery ceremony was also very grand. Not only did it gather reporters and media from home and abroad, it was also broadcast live on major platforms simultaneously.

In particular, even the security measures were abnormal. The Academy of Sciences directly transferred several door frame robots.

Serves as security inspection equipment.

July 21, 2021, Shanghai, Loongson International Integrated Circuit Manufacturing Co., Ltd.

Eight in the morning.

There were already many reporters waiting at the delivery ceremony, including not a few from overseas.

But at this moment, their attention and lenses were attracted by the security equipment in front of them.

I seem to have forgotten the protagonist I want to interview today.

"Oh my god, this is just a great piece of art, it's hard to imagine how powerful he would be."

"I didn't expect to have the opportunity to see the Doorjamb Man up close today. He is even more shocking than what he showed in the video."

"This time I really came to the right place."

"I have to take more pictures. It would be even better if I could move again."

"If you have this big guy at home, you will definitely feel very safe."

At the security entrance, several overseas journalists with work IDs hanging around their necks were communicating with each other, and their words and expressions all revealed excitement.

He stared straight at the several silver-gray doorframe robots in front of him, wishing he could put his eyes on them.

They came here today mainly to interview the extreme ultraviolet lithography machine project of the Institute of Optoelectronics Technology. After all, there was so much turmoil in the overseas semiconductor industry a few days ago without any warning, and no one took the initiative to explain the reasons. In this case, as news People, very keenly felt that there must be big news in this delivery ceremony between the Institute of Optoelectronics Technology and Loongson International.

As a reporter based in Shanghai, you must not miss first-hand news.

It can be said that even if Loongson International does not plan to invite reporters, they will find ways to obtain information.

According to the regulations of the delivery ceremony, they need to wait for the designated time after arriving at the site before entering through security check.

In the past, this was definitely a boring part, and you could even just stand and wait with no place to rest.

They were accustomed to comparing themselves, and they were already prepared on the way here.

Anyway, it's worth it as long as you get big news.

But I never expected that as soon as people arrived here, their attention would be attracted by the security equipment in front of them.

Emotions were running extremely high.

Everyone showed great interest and took out their cameras and stood nearby to take pictures.

They even ask other people to help each other take photos.

If everyone hadn't been waiting for reporters, those who didn't know this might have thought it was a tourist group coming to check in at the scenic spot.

Previously, Little Breaking Ball was released in overseas theaters and won a lot of box office. The door frame robot in the movie has attracted many fans. In addition, the military publicly announced that door frame robots exist in reality. I don’t know how many people’s jaws dropped around the world.

However, everyone appreciates the heroic appearance of the doorframe robot through videos online.

Now that I can see it up close and offline with my own eyes, one can imagine how I feel.

That is to say, in addition to the door frame robot that acts as security inspection equipment, there are also many security personnel standing around. I am afraid that the actions of these overseas reporters will be even more crazy.

Domestic reporters who are also in the crowd, because they have special reporting and live broadcast and other tasks, can only try to restrain their emotions and focus on today's protagonist, the domestic extreme ultraviolet lithography machine.

But there are still many people who secretly look away.

It’s not that they haven’t seen the world before. Who knows that door frame robots are military equipment and are not for commercial use.

It’s really not easy for ordinary people to get up close and personal.

"The location we are at right now is the delivery ceremony site. Later we will enter the infield through these security inspection equipment and witness the delivery of our first extreme ultraviolet high-end lithography machine."

"The parameters of our first extreme ultraviolet lithography machine will also be revealed by then."

"In addition to Hou Shengchang, President of the Academy of Sciences, and Academician Luo Changhui, Director of the Institute of Optoelectronics Technology, those attending the ceremony will also be present, including Zhou Xueyi, Chairman of Loongson International, and Professor Xu Yunxu, who is responsible for the entire project to bring domestic lithography machines into the high-end field. Let us all look forward to it.”

"In addition, according to the latest news, a mysterious guest will attend the delivery ceremony and announce a certain decision."

At this time, a young man holding the main station's logo microphone spoke smoothly with his back to the security equipment and the camera.

During the process, there was no sideways glance to admire the door frame robot, which shows the professionalism.

The important thing is that he is not filming a news report, but is conducting a live broadcast to explain the content to netizens.

If you open Penguin Video at this time and click on the live broadcast pushed on the homepage, you will find that the picture played is exactly this reporter and the security equipment behind him.

Although the live broadcast has just begun, a steady stream of viewers have already received news and poured into the live broadcast room.

The barrage refresh rate is almost invisible to the naked eye.

Only by stretching out your finger and holding down the slide can you see clearly what the netizen said.

Because this live broadcast is relatively important and everyone is paying attention, in addition to the camera and host, there are also assistants outside the camera who are always paying attention to the situation in the live broadcast room.

In this way, once a special situation occurs, the host can be reminded in time to make adjustments.

But when the assistant carefully checked the barrage content in the live broadcast room, his expression became a little weird.

Unexpectedly, all the content of the barrage went astray.

"It's finally airing."

"I think I saw something extraordinary."

"The security gate behind the host looks a bit familiar."

"Fuck."

"I knew I would have found a way to sneak in."

"Can the host give way? How can we see if the back is blocked?"

"This is too ridiculous. They actually used door frame robots as security inspection equipment."

"The photographer quickly turned his camera towards me. What's so interesting about the host?"

At the same time, the host, who was still facing the camera with a smile on his face, naturally didn't know that the live broadcast room had exploded.

After briefly introducing the situation at the scene, he immediately turned his attention to the assistant next to him.

Take the initiative to ask about the situation in the live broadcast room.

"Xiao Su."

"Look at what questions netizens have, and I'll answer them for you."

The female assistant who was called Xiao Su immediately came back to her senses when she heard this sentence and looked a little embarrassed.

After a slight hesitation, he bravely replied with some embarrassment:

"That Teacher Kang."

"Netizens ask you to stand aside."

"Stand next to it?"

The male host looked a little surprised when he heard the assistant's answer.

A question mark couldn't help but appear in my mind.

He turned his head and looked to the side, but didn't find anything special.

I had to ask again: "Don't the viewers in the live broadcast room have any problems?"

After hearing this, Xiao Su couldn't continue to talk about it, so she had to raise her eyes and choose to speak clearly.

"Teacher Kang."

"Netizens said you were blocking their view of the door frame robot."

"Door frame robot..."

The male host, known as Teacher Kang, subconsciously looked back. After noticing the overseas reporters who were still taking photos, he immediately understood what was going on.

The delivery ceremony has not officially started yet, and for netizens, its appeal cannot be compared with that of the door frame robot.

After finally seeing the use of the door frame robot security inspection function, everyone must be very interested.

Understanding what was going on, he was very cooperative. He quickly moved a few steps to the side and asked the cameraman to move closer to the camera.

The main reason is that as a senior anchor reporter of the main station, he has good professional quality and can avoid watching things that are not related to the ceremony, but for netizens, interest must be the priority.

It's something that faces this kind of reality and goes into the movie, and you won't get bored even if you watch it for a whole day.

What's more, the doorframe robot acts as a security inspection device, which is something you can only see in movies.

But he didn't know that because the screen changed into a door frame robot, the atmosphere in the live broadcast room suddenly became much livelier.

Almost all the viewers in the live broadcast room were posting comments at the same time.

"This is so cool. I didn't expect that the Academy of Sciences would bring in all the door frame robots for this delivery ceremony."

"With Professor Xu here, it's not just a matter of a few words to build a few doorframe robots to fill the scene."

"Why hasn't the security check started yet? I really want to see the security check function of the door frame robot."

"Did anyone sneak in? Just in time to test the power of the stun gun that comes with the door frame robot."

"This group of overseas reporters are quite discerning and know it is a good thing."

"It's a pity that these doorframe robots can't move, otherwise the scene would be almost like a movie."

"It would be nice if you can see it. Don't ask for too much."

that's all.

As the audience in the live broadcast room began to chat, the door frame robot in front of them suddenly put away its defensive wall.

This means that security check can be carried out to enter the venue.

Those overseas reporters couldn't wait for such a long time, and immediately rushed to pass when they saw this scene.

It can be seen that every time a person passes by, the person's information will appear on the small screen located on the head of the door frame robot. After the comparison is correct, the person can pass smoothly.

However, if the identity information is wrong, a warning will be given first, and then the stun gun will be released in conjunction with the uniform.

The host, known as Teacher Kang, deliberately walked behind and let the camera capture the security inspection process in detail, which was to satisfy the audience's curiosity about the doorframe robot in the live broadcast room.

——

At the same time, when reporters started to enter, Xu Yun, who had arrived early in the backstage lounge of the delivery ceremony, was talking with Hou Shengchang, Luo Changhui, Loongson International Chairman Zhou Xueyi and other people attending the ceremony. From his words, it could be seen that everyone was in a very good mood today. good.

"Today, on behalf of all the people in the domestic semiconductor industry, I would like to express my gratitude to Professor Xu."

"If Professor Xu hadn't made domestic lithography machines go high-end, we would still be a weak player in this field."

"Especially in recent years, development has not been easy."

In the lounge, Zhou Xueyi stood up and held Xu Yun's hand with excitement on his face, not caring about his image at all.

As the largest integrated circuit manufacturing company in the country, it is unable to produce high-end chips.

This situation is really difficult.

In particular, all aspects are controlled by others, and development is much more difficult than other industries.

Fortunately, under such circumstances, Xu Yun took over the domestic photolithography machine project in the face of crisis.

And conquered the high-end extreme ultraviolet lithography machine in a very short time.

Especially when ASML made the announcement a few days ago, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep at night.

After all, he had never thought before that that a top semiconductor equipment company as powerful as ASML would sometimes openly submit to weakness.

It is no exaggeration to say that I cannot even dream of it.

But this happened to Xu Yun.

Xu Yun was not very familiar with Zhou Xueyi, but seeing the other person's heartfelt emotion at this moment, he also understood that he was also someone who wanted to see the development of the domestic semiconductor industry.

Everyone agrees on this point.

So after hearing these words, he quickly replied: "It's all for the development of our semiconductor industry. Chairman Zhou said this, which is a bit different from me."

"That's what Professor Xu said." After hearing this, Zhou Xueyi had a smile on his face, and then he let go and returned to his seat.

Hou Shengchang, who was also in a good mood, also interjected at this time: "Professor Xu is our greatest wealth. This time he can develop a high-end lithography machine in such a short period of time. I think he will soon be the youngest academician in the history of the Academy of Sciences." It's about to be born." At the end of the sentence, his eyes subconsciously looked towards Xu Yun beside him.

After careful calculation, Xu Yun is not yet thirty years old and is about to become an academician of the Academy of Sciences.

Even though he was the dean, he couldn't help but be secretly frightened.

After all, compared with second-level full professors across the country, the number of academicians is much smaller.

I don’t know how many scholars and scientists have been stuck at this watershed throughout their lives and have difficulty being elected as academicians.

The so-called unparalleled national talents can be imagined.

However, Hou Shengchang immediately became happy again when he thought that he had proposed Xu Yun to be the person in charge of the lithography machine project.

If the Academy of Sciences can have such a young and capable academician, it will be much more certain of completing the projects arranged by it.

Although Zhou Xueyi was stuck on the title of professor before, he also knew very well what academician represented.

But when I think about Xu Yun's achievements in just a few years, I immediately feel that he is well-deserved.

Even his reputation as an academician is much higher than that of others.

Even if the age is less than thirty.

With his thoughts stuck here, Zhou Xueyi did not forget to congratulate Xu Yun: "Then I would like to congratulate Academician Xu in advance."

"It's a good thing if Xu Yun is elected as an academician." Luo Changhui, who was smiling next to him, added.

At this time, Xu Yun didn't say anything modest about himself. After all, there was no water in it.

In a way, his development of door frame robots brings artificial intelligence to a new level.

Solve the problem of high-end photoresist and lead the Institute of Optoelectronics Technology to create extreme ultraviolet lithography machines.

Just one of the things here is enough to be elected as an academician.

Now that he is an academician, it should be said that he has brought glory to the Academy of Sciences.

In addition, he does not need to go through any nomination review. If he follows the process, I believe it will not take long before his name will appear on the list of new academicians made public by the Academy of Sciences.

Speaking of which, he is still looking forward to this academician. If anyone wants to win the highest award in science and technology, the prerequisite is to be an academician of the Academy of Sciences.

After talking about Xu Yun's matter, no one continued to discuss it.

The conversation soon changed to the upcoming delivery ceremony.

"There was a big earthquake in the overseas semiconductor field a few days ago. It was so happy that I couldn't sleep all night long. I believe that when today's delivery ceremony is over, it will definitely give the outside world another surprise."

Zhou Xueyi already knows the parameters of the lithography machine delivered this time, especially what the less than 2% defect represents.

So when I mention this, I can't help but feel excited.

"This is all thanks to Professor Xu's photoresist." Hou Shengchang mentioned Xu Yun again after hearing this.

Then Luo Changhui responded: "Chairman Zhou, in addition to the extreme ultraviolet lithography machine delivered this time, we will continue to produce the same model of lithography machines in the future to ensure the production capacity of Loongson International."

"In addition, our institute will not give up research on 5nm and 3nm processes."

"ASML wants to prevent us from continuing to develop lithography machines by selling its own lithography machines to us. It is definitely a wrong idea."

"I feel relieved with Director Luo's words." Zhou Xueyi replied immediately after taking the conversation.

If you want to ensure the company's high-end chip production capacity, it is obviously not enough to rely on an extreme ultraviolet lithography machine alone.

With the guarantee from the Institute of Optoelectronics Technology, if extreme ultraviolet lithography machines are delivered one after another, Loongson International will soon have the strength to compete with other wafer fabs.

If all domestic manufacturers adopt Kirin chips by then, the number of orders they have will definitely top the list.

The thought stayed here, and the next second Zhou Xueyi thought of something again, and then he leaned over and spoke to Xu Yunhou Shengchang Luo Changhui.

"In addition to us, there is also a special guest attending the delivery ceremony today. Judging by the time, he will arrive soon."

"Oh yeah?"

Luo Changhui obviously didn't know much about this matter, so he subconsciously said something after hearing this.

But just when he wanted to ask further, he heard a strange and cheerful voice suddenly coming from the door.

"Old Zhou."

"I shouldn't be late."

Several people looked in the direction of the sound and saw an imposing middle-aged man walking in front, followed by several subordinates.

Everyone present was obviously familiar with this, and smiles suddenly appeared on their faces and they took the initiative to say hello.

"I didn't expect that Dong Ren would come here in person."

"For such a big event related to the entire semiconductor industry, I will definitely come from Shenzhen City to participate. We have already confirmed the first batch of Kirin chip orders with Loongson."

"In addition, I would like to take this opportunity to announce something about our company."

Director Ren didn't have any airs. He smiled and responded after hearing Hou Shengchang's words.

After saying that, he turned his attention to Xu Yun, walked over and stretched out his hands.

"I finally met you today, Professor Xu. You granted us the latest version of the artificial intelligence model before, but I haven't had a chance to express my gratitude to you."

Feeling the touch from his palm, Xu Yun had a very good impression of the old man in front of him.

He didn't care at all about the age gap between the two of them, and showed such enthusiasm and sincerity, which proved that the other party did have an extreme desire for talents as rumored.

Xu Yun didn't hesitate at all, and immediately replied: "It can help your company. This is the purpose of developing artificial intelligence. Besides, without your help, the Lingsi chip would not have come out so quickly."

The old man he faced before him was none other than Ren Dong, the chairman of Warwick Technology.

After receiving the news, he flew from Shenzhen City to Shanghai to attend the ceremony, which shows that he takes this matter seriously.

You must know that according to news reports, the other party has participated in very few public appearances in events in the past two years.

Then Xu Yun thought of what Director Ren said just now, and suddenly had some thoughts in his heart.

The next second he couldn't help but ask: "Does Director Ren want to take the opportunity to announce Yinglong EDA this time?"

"That's right."

Faced with Xu Yun's speculation, Ren Dong did not refute anything.

After casting an appreciative look, he directly stated his plan in front of everyone.

"Our Yinglong EDA has been completed for half a year. Now that Professor Xu has manufactured a domestic extreme ultraviolet lithography machine, it is time to put our own EDA software online."

"Although it has continued to be optimized in the past six months, I believe it is enough to compete with those overseas giants."

When he decided to let Yinglong EDA go online with the domestic extreme ultraviolet lithography machine and announce it to the outside world, not only because he knew that EDA alone could not solve the problem, he also wanted to make Yinglong EDA more perfect, and strive to become a blockbuster even if it is not popular.

But he didn't expect that Xu Yun would be so fast. Not long after, the first extreme ultraviolet lithography machine had been delivered.

I had no choice but to announce that Yinglong EDA would be launched ahead of schedule, giving some serious eye drops to overseas companies.

Xu Yun took Dong Ren's words to heart. In fact, he knew very well that these words were deliberately conservative.

As a trump card that they have developed silently for a long time, and with the blessing of artificial intelligence, it can be said that the performance of Yinglong EDA is definitely not inferior to that of Xinsikaideng and others, and is even stronger and more stable.

This can be seen from the designed Linsi smart car chip.

Previously, Xinxikaideng restricted the software, resulting in the inability to use the latest version.

Then after Yinglong EDA comes online, there will be no need to use it at all.

However, Xu Yun did not take the initiative to say this. He looked at the time and found that there was not long left before the ceremony started, so he changed the subject and reminded Hou Shengchang, Ren Dong and others.

"It's almost time, it's time for us to enter."

"Let's go."

Hou Shengchang moved the fastest when he heard this. He responded with a smile and walked towards the door.

When the others saw this, they naturally no longer hesitated and followed immediately.

At the ceremony site that was arranged at this moment, reporters from various places were already in place.

After seeing Xu Yun and others coming out to sit down at the table, someone shouted something, and immediately there was a lot of shutter clicking.

"Professor Xu is out."

As for the audience in the live broadcast room, the number of barrages suddenly increased.

While everyone enthusiastically supported Xu Yun, many people also noticed that Director Ren of Warwick was also on stage.

"Professor Xu is so handsome."

"All the big guys came to the ceremony today."

"Unexpectedly, Director Ren is here."

It seems that this delivery ceremony is becoming more and more exciting. I guess there will be big announcements by then.

Soon the delivery ceremony officially began. After the person at the end of the room finished his opening remarks, it didn't take long for the microphone to reach Xu Yun.

He is in charge of this project and will introduce the situation of the first domestic extreme ultraviolet lithography machine.

He knows very well what netizens are most concerned about, so he doesn't bother to waste his words with vain talk.

Just pick up the key points directly.

"This time our Optoelectronics Technology Research Institute used brand-new extreme ultraviolet light source technology and optical projection systems to successfully achieve a technological leap forward and manufacture an extreme ultraviolet lithography machine with a 7-nanometer process."

"in addition."

"Used with our new photoresist, this photolithography machine can keep the chip defect rate below 2%."

"This is a landmark breakthrough in the field of chip manufacturing."

As Xu Yun finished speaking, the audience both at the scene and in the live broadcast room exploded.

Since you are participating in this kind of event, even if you are not a professional, you must have learned all kinds of information about the photolithography machine in advance.

How could you not know what a defect rate of less than 2% means?

Even ASML, the world's top semiconductor equipment manufacturing company, cannot do it.

In order to maintain their image, the staff at the scene could only suppress the excitement and excitement, but the live broadcast room, which was not affected in any way, was already filled with barrages.

And most of them are swear words expressing emotions.

"Fuck."

"It's a bunker!"

“I thought that the 5-nanometer process would be difficult to imagine, but I didn’t expect that the defect rate would be less than 2%.”

"Just ask who will use the photoresist from Neon in the future."

"Xu Shen is awesome!"

"I seem to know why Asmai made such an announcement suddenly."

"With such a low chip defect rate, how much cost can be reduced? Who wouldn't be afraid of it?"

"I think Asumai is getting really anxious this time."

Xu Yun didn't know what was going on in the live broadcast room at this time. After he finished speaking, he handed over the right to speak to Zhou Xueyi according to the procedure.

Because Loongson International does not have high-end photolithography machines, it has been unable to raise its head in the global semiconductor field. Now that it finally has an opportunity to be proud, it will not miss it.

Facing the camera, he took a deep breath and then solemnly announced: "Starting from today, Loongson will officially have the ability to produce high-end chips, and we will also expand our production capacity over time."

"Also, let me tell you some good news. Warwick Technology has reached an agreement with us on the first batch of tens of millions of Kirin chip processing orders."

Next came the reporter's question-and-answer session that had been arranged long ago. Many reporters in the audience expressed their desire to ask questions.

In the end, Zhou Xueyi took the lead in choosing the more familiar host named Kang.

The host, who was known as Teacher Kang, stood up and asked after seeing that he was selected: "Currently, ASML has released the sales of all levels of lithography machines to us. Is Professor Xu still interested in the future of the institute?" Will we continue to research lithography machines with higher technology?"

Faced with this question from the reporter, Xu Yun was not surprised at all after hearing it.

After all, this is also the topic that attracts the most attention online.

At the same time, I believe that ASML will also pay great attention to this issue.

Both Xu Yun and the institute have made a decision on this, so they can answer it very fluently.

After Xu Yun glanced at Luo Changhui next to him, he replied directly: "Of course we will continue to study it."

"And I believe that it won't be long before the Institute of Optoelectronics Technology conquers 5-nanometer or even 3-nanometer process lithography machines. Historical experience tells us that the sword must be held in our own hands."

It is worth mentioning that he did not indicate that he would not be personally involved in the subsequent research on the lithography machine process. You can imagine how ASML will react when hearing this answer.

What Xu Yun didn't know was that just as he said these words in front of the camera, in a room in the ASML headquarters building in Feldhomann, CEO Peter Wen was looking at the screen. Full of anger.
