Technology overlord starts from intelligent learning machine

Chapter 117 Give me a month

In the conference room of Wudaokou Vocational and Technical School in the capital city, a meeting led by Reverie Company is in progress.This time the T100 architecture turmoil struck, Lenovo organized a group of elites and bigwigs in the industry, and held this meeting, focusing on the issue of whether to recognize and use the T100 architecture.

The meeting has been going on for two days, and Zhu Jie procrastinated and didn't come. He waited for everyone to discuss it, and then came to the door.

The content of the meeting was specially collected and reported to Zhu Jie.

In the previous discussion, a part of people headed by Huawei took the initiative to recognize the T100 architecture, and took advantage of the opportunity to launch their own chips and even central processing units.Some of these people were entrusted by Tian Yongkuan to speak for T100. Their reason was that Chinese people should have their own things, and they could not let their lifeblood be held in the hands of others.

Another group of people, headed by Lenovo, advocates not to use the T100 architecture. Their reason is that what is the use of this advanced architecture if you have nothing, and you have no ability to produce chips under this architecture.What you produce is a hundred-nanometer chip that can only be used for a learning machine. Compared with a chip of a few hundred nanometers and a chip of a few nanometers, the advantages of advanced architecture disappear.

Of course, they will not say clearly how much their own losses will be caused by changing the structure.

The acknowledgment pointed out that our country already has 10-nanometer-level production technology, and as long as 10-nanometer-level technology is used to start producing chips with a new architecture, the advantages of this architecture will emerge.

Opponents point out that Hongmeng has not disclosed this structure. Even if they did, it will take a certain amount of time to learn and absorb these technologies and use them proficiently. So how to solve the problems of the national chip industry during this period of time?
This is a bit of a nonsense.Hongmeng Holdings has applied for the patented technology of the T100 architecture. Now that it has applied for a patent, it must be made public. However, no company has yet contacted Hongmeng Holdings to use this technology.

All companies are waiting and watching, you are just a framework, and there is no physical product that is more advanced than the existing X86 framework, how can people use your T100 framework convincingly and with confidence?Want us to do a drug test for you?Shall we design our own chips or something?Then we might as well use the existing chip. If the test fails, the loss can be calculated in billions.

This is why, although the T100 architecture has become very popular, few people use it. Except for Zhujie's own intelligent learning machine (companion machine), basically no one uses the chip under the T100 architecture. The ecological environment is not a day able to form.

When Zhu Jie arrived at Wudaokou Vocational and Technical School, the meeting had entered the third day, and Zhu Jie broke into the conference room directly.With Zhu Jie's current name, no one would stop him from the door.

"Your T100 architecture does not have any real applications, how do you prove that it is more advanced than the X86 architecture?" This is the question of the opponents.

After entering the meeting room, Zhu Jie directly put forward the opinion that the X100 architecture must be replaced by his own T86 architecture.He has already got the answer from Cui Yongchang in advance, and the country supports him.

Zhu Jie's toughness immediately aroused everyone's backlash, especially the opposing party, and immediately raised objections.Zhu Jie proposed that we also engage in a verbal battle against the Confucian scholars. If you have any questions, he will answer them.

"Two aspects can prove its advanced nature." Zhu Jie stood at one end of the conference table, smiling and raising a finger: "First, self-certification. If everyone here has used the learning machine produced by our company or accompanied me It doesn't matter if you haven't used it before. You can ask your relatives and friends who have experience in using it and let them tell you about our company's first-generation machine using X86 architecture chips and the second-generation machine using T100 architecture chips. The experience of using a modern machine. The same thing, with a different architecture, is a completely different experience.”

Zhu Jie smiled, raised a finger again, and said: "Second, circumstantial evidence. Everyone knows that they pushed the Association for Computing Machinery to not recognize my T100 architecture. Why? Because my T100 architecture is more advanced than his X86 architecture, they With their actual actions, they helped me prove this point."

"Okay, even if your T100 architecture is more advanced than the X86 architecture, how do you produce it? I think you should be clear about the technology gap in our country's chip industry? They have already achieved 5-nanometer technology, and even There is news that people have already started to tackle 2nm technology. But at present, our best technology is 14nm. If we want to enter single digits, according to the current situation, I want to say that 5nm lithography machines can be used for us. It will be far away, so I would like to ask Professor Zhu, how are you going to solve this problem?"

Among the people in front of them, many are academic elites. Although many people are in business, they still have some titles of scholars and professors. After all, in the eyes of many people, businessmen are associated with money and vulgarity .In the eyes of these people, Zhu Jie's status as a boss was automatically ignored, and his status as a professor played a role. Whether it was an official professor or a visiting professor, he was a professor.

Zhu Jie thought for a while and said: "There are two solutions. First, by tapping the potential, improve the precision of the lithography machine. Give me three months, and I will come up with our country's first 5nm lithography machine. "

"5nm lithography machine?!!!" Everyone was stunned, they didn't expect that Zhu Jie would dare to release satellites like that.

Someone asked: "Professor Zhu, let's not talk about whether you can take out a 5nm lithography machine within three months, just say that three months later, you just took out the lithography machine, how to solve the chip problem, the chip's problem Design, processor design, all take time, of course, we can also do these design work at the same time, but I am very pessimistic about whether we can come up with a mature solution within three months."

Zhu Jie said with a smile: "This is the second plan I will talk about right away. Second, through further optimization, improve the performance of the T100 architecture so that it can be made at the 14nm chip level and X5 at the 86nm chip level. Architecture can do even better than it can."

Zhu Jie glanced at all the bosses in the room, and then continued: "My colleagues, I have designed a 14-nanometer chip under the T100 architecture, and a general-purpose processor using this chip."

Through the table cards placed on the table, Zhu Jie knew which company each person came from. Zhu Jie pointed to the humanity from SMIC and said, "Give me a production line and give me a month. I have this confidence. A Come up with a suitable general-purpose processor within a month. When we arrive, we will look at this processor and compare its performance with the world's most advanced processor under the X86 architecture. Then we will make a decision whether to use it or not. T100 architecture, okay?"
