Rebirth 2010: I add some points to be a boss

Chapter 240 Thousands of dollars to buy horses, hundreds of millions in dividends, stolen technical documents

electronic port.

Shanhai Microelectronics Chip R&D Center.

"Angkor, what reward do you think the company will give us? This is a 16-nanometer process, and Gulf Semiconductor has just launched it."

Xie Shengdong pushed his colleague beside him and said excitedly.

In his 20s, with clear eyes and immature face, he is completely unrecognizable. He is an outstanding material science expert.

"Promotion and salary increase, isn't it clearly written in the employee contract?"

Wu Maozhe raised his eyes to look at Xie Shengdong, and replied Yanyan, completely unable to lift his spirits.

At first, when Wu Maozhe first entered the R&D center, he was extremely uncomfortable and full of strangeness when faced with increasingly complex and sophisticated EDA software, simulation tools, lithography technology and material engineering.

I even wanted to give up at one point.

It’s just that whenever he thinks of his mother, he grits his teeth and picks himself up again, chooses the direction of transistor structure optimization that he is best at, and works hard all day long, devoting himself to work.

After sorting out the technical documents of Shanhai Microelectronics, he keenly found that in order to reduce the process node of the chip process, he had to break through four major technical problems:
Multiple Exposure and Etching Technology!
Insulation layer and electrode material!

Multi-Branch Transistor Layout!

Three-dimensional integrated circuit technology!
First, professional exposure machines and etching equipment can be used instead;

The second point is that an expert in nanomaterials is required, who is familiar with the characteristics of high dielectric constant materials and can perfectly master the techniques of synthesizing and applying these materials;
The third point is that he decided to start with the fin field effect transistor structure to improve the current control capability, reduce the leakage current, speed up the switching speed, and enhance the integration and performance of the chip;

Fourth point, Shanhai Microelectronics already has a mature three-dimensional packaging technology (3DIC)!
Therefore, as long as the technical barriers of materials and transistor structures can be broken, the chip process can be further improved in a short period of time.

As it turns out, he was right!
The 16-nanometer process was easily developed by him along the correct path. He had never achieved such amazing scientific research results in MVIDIA.

Of course, all this is inseparable from the help of Xie Shengdong, who boldly used silicate as the insulating layer material and polysilicon as the electrode material, which greatly improved the electron mobility.

Cooperating with the design of the three-dimensional transistor structure, it provides the possibility to reduce the size of the chip.

"Then why are you so sullen, isn't the promotion and salary increase worth celebrating?"

Xie Shengdong was puzzled.

"Because...forget it, you don't understand."

Wu Maozhe hesitated to speak, but the other party didn't know that the reason why he was able to enter the R&D center was all due to the relationship of the big boss.

"If you can develop a 10-nanometer chip process, I will buy Yibin Electronics and give it to you."

Chen Heyu's words were deeply imprinted in his heart.

Thinking of this, Wu Maozhe shook his head, opened Xihe EDA, and continued to study the structure of the transistor.

He believes that the fin field effect (FinFET) transistor structure can achieve better electronic control and smaller leakage current, which is very different from the traditional planar transistor structure. If it goes further, the process may be reduced to 14 Nanometer, or 10 nanometers.

Seeing this, Xie Shengdong smiled slightly, and also began to concentrate on his work.

……

"Boss, the core personnel in charge of R&D are all in the conference room."

Seeing the boss getting off the car, He Tingbo came forward with a smile and reported in a low voice.

"As expected of a technology giant who has been cultivating in the semiconductor industry for many years, how long has it been? It is really unexpected for me to be able to win the 16-nanometer process."

Chen Heyu said with emotion.

This step saves at least three years, and Shanhai Microelectronics finally has the initial ability to compete with Bay Semiconductor in the Yazhou market.

As long as the opportunity is seized, Huaguo's semiconductor structure will change!

"The boss praised the award. It's all due to the colleagues in the R&D center. It has nothing to do with me."

He Tingbo said modestly, she was born in research and development, and she didn't have the stink of taking credit for others, and said frankly.

"Oh? Which genius is it? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"

Chen Heyu smiled, became interested, and then asked.

"ASIC design engineer Ding Xiucheng was originally an old employee of Zigang Electronics. This time, he should have accumulated a lot of knowledge. With the assistance of Xihe EDA and 3DIC packaging technology, he did not expect to be able to give you a big surprise, and also gave the company a big surprise."

He Tingbo replied with a smile.

"Want to achieve mass production? How long will it take?"

Chen Heyu continued to ask.

"We have the NXT 1950i lithography machine, which is enough to support 16nm chip manufacturing, but the physical vapor deposition and atomic layer deposition equipment do not match, so we need to speed up the procurement process.

On the other hand, since there is no corresponding domestic supplier for high dielectric constant insulating layer materials, only chemical companies in Neon or Korea have the ability to supply them. "

He Tingbo explained, pushing his glasses.

"Keep an eye on it. I'll find someone to get in touch with Korea's material channels first. If it doesn't work, I'll try to contact Neon or Windmill's suppliers."

Chen Heyu thought for a while, and gave an answer.

The 28-nanometer process has not touched the bottom line of the beautiful country, and the 16-nanometer process node is only one step away from giants such as Intel and Haotong.

In other words, he had to plan ahead.

Otherwise, if you are unprepared before the blow comes, you will definitely be at a loss.

As he walked, he thought quickly, how should he deal with the next situation?
It is a good thing to have an advanced chip manufacturing process. I am afraid that the other party will play hooligans and cut off the source of materials or other core tools and equipment.

"Let's take a look at the heroes of Shanhai Microelectronics."

Chen Heyu suppressed his messy thoughts, strode forward, and came straight to the door of a conference room. There were about ten chip design engineers sitting in the room, the older one was 50 to [-] years old, and the younger one was in his early thirties.

"boss!"

"boss!"

"boss!"

When everyone saw him, they quickly stood up to greet him, with excitement written all over their faces.

"Which one is Ding Xiucheng?"

Chen Heyu Shi Shiran sat down, glanced around, and asked with a slight smile.

"Hi boss, I'm Ding Xiucheng from Shanhai Microelectronics R&D Center, and I'm mainly in charge of the process."

"Shua" sound!
A middle-aged man in his early 1.7 meters stood up, with a slightly dark complexion and a slightly round figure, and introduced with a smile.

"Talents!"

Chen Heyu boasted against his will. In any case, the other party has developed a 16-nanometer chip process, which can generate huge profits for the company, which is worthy of recognition and praise.

He had already made up his mind.

get promoted!

Give out equity and bonuses!
Let the company come forward and help him apply for major domestic scientific research awards!

There is one more item, sales commission!
He plans to use part of the sales of 16nm chips to reward the engineers who lead the project to stimulate the enthusiasm of researchers.

"Thank you boss, it's all part of the job."

Ding Xiucheng replied cautiously, with cautious and defensive eyes.

"Tell me about your ideas and technical solutions. How did you come up with the idea of ​​optimizing the transistor structure so as to reduce the size?"

Chen Heyu asked casually.

"Um... I was inspired by the architecture of the fifth-generation Core processor, and realized it by building vertically oriented fins on the silicon substrate.

This fin structure can provide greater control gate current and reduce leakage current in the off state.

Moreover, with the compactness of the three-dimensional transistor structure, the processor can accommodate more transistors in the limited chip space..."

Ding Xiucheng had been prepared for a long time, and he replied confidently.

"Huh? Something strange?"

"It stands to reason that this advanced technical principle should be able to trigger the system. Why is there no response in my mind?"

Chen Heyu thought to himself, frowning slightly, feeling a little confused for a moment.

"Great idea, and to be able to succeed proves that your strategy is correct.

Mr. He, let the finance department take out 2000 million funds and reward everyone. Everyone involved in this research and development will be promoted by one level.

As for Xiucheng, after the mass production of 16nm chips, you can get 1% of the sales as your commission for every piece sold.

Other colleagues, share another 1% commission. "

Chen Heyu didn't think too much, and directly announced the reward policy. 1% sounds pitifully small, but all the knowledgeable engineers were very excited.

"Thank you boss, we will definitely make persistent efforts to develop new products for the company."

Ding Xiucheng's face was flushed, and he said happily.

1% off sales!

That year was not worth a few hundred million!

"Work hard, work hard, as long as you contribute to the company, I will reward you generously."

Chen Heyu patted him on the shoulder, and encouraged him in a gentle voice,,,.

He is in a particularly comfortable mood. He is willing to earn hundreds of millions of dollars in commission every year, just to buy a horse with a lot of money to attract semiconductor talents at home and abroad.

He is more realistic when others give equity bonuses. Whoever can lead the team to conquer the chip process node will directly send sky-high dividends!

Next, he has to adjust the salary system and welfare system of Shanhai Microelectronics to make it more international, so as to retain the hearts of high-end talents.

"Mr. He, is Wu Maozhe still in the R&D center? How is his work status?"

After Chen Heyu exchanged pleasantries, he suddenly remembered this person, and immediately turned his head to ask He Tingbo.

"Ding Gong should know that he happens to be Wu Maozhe's immediate superior."

He Tingbo replied immediately.

"By the way, why isn't he here? Didn't he participate in the research and development work?"

Chen Heyu said suspiciously.

Wu Maozhe is a senior chip engineer of MVIDIA. His resume and ability have been certified by the "Godfather of Graphics Card" Huang Xunjian. Even if he has not engaged in R&D work for a few years, he still has no contribution at all, right?

"Back... back to the boss, Wu Maozhe is busy, and he is naturally involved in this research and development work."

When Ding Xiucheng heard the words, he panicked for a moment, and he knocked and replied.

The back of his forehead couldn't help the fine cold sweat, his hands and feet were cold, so he could only hold on, for fear of being noticed.

"Oh? Really?"

Chen Heyu sneered, already seeing that something was wrong with Ding Xiucheng.

"Call someone over."

He ordered directly.

"Old... Boss, no need, just ask me if you have anything to ask?"

Ding Xiucheng gritted his teeth and stopped him with a voice.

"It's okay, it's just some personal matter, Lao Wu and I are considered friends."

Chen Heyu said deliberately.

friend?

Ding Xiucheng exploded immediately after hearing this, you and the boss are friends, why did you tell me earlier, if you don't tell me, how would I know.

I wanted to cry but didn't have tears in my heart, and I froze in place, not knowing what to do.

He has done this kind of thing a lot, and he has been here for so many years, this is the first time something went wrong.

When He Tingbo saw Ding Xiucheng who was like falling into an ice cellar, he didn't understand that there was something tricky in the middle, and she was deceived.

When the boss was in front of her, she tried not to get angry, snorted coldly, and waved an assistant to trot out.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly fell into a state of stagnation, which was eerily quiet.

After a while, Wu Maozhe walked in with his assistant, with a look of impatience on his face, feeling that his research progress had been interrupted.

"Yo! It's Mr. Chen, no, I should call you the boss now."

Wu Maozhe looked up at Chen Heyu, immediately changed his face, and said with a playful smile.

He even pointed at Chen Heyu to help him out!

"Are you used to it here?
I heard from Ding Xiucheng that you made a small contribution to the 16nm technical solution. It seems that MVIDIA's work experience is of great help to you. "

Chen Heyu motioned him to sit down, and said with deep meaning.

"what?"

Wu Maozhe's eyes were red for a moment, and then he became angry. What is a little power?
This technology was completely developed by him and Xie Shengdong, who stayed up all night and worked overtime. What's the matter with Ding Xiucheng?

No wonder there was no reply for so long after he handed in the technical documents.

In anger, he clenched his fists tightly, looking like he would choose someone to eat.

"Mao Zhe, listen to my explanation!"

Ding Xiucheng spoke in embarrassment, wanting to continue struggling.

"Fuck! I explain Mud Mom!"

Wu Maozhe punched Ding Xiucheng on the cheek, not forgetting to curse.

At this moment, the resentment of being ignored by his father and bullied by his elder brother poured out.

"Bang bang bang"!
The fists rained down on Ding Xiucheng, causing him to squat on the ground begging for mercy.
