Super Copy of Great Power Technology

"Our company does develop its own mobile phone SOC. The second-generation Reda mobile phone that will be released in a while uses the Jiuzhou No. 28 chip independently developed by our Reda Technology. However, that chip still uses the mature 7nm process and has poor performance. It’s just so-so, and there is still a big gap between the development of nm chips.”

Qiao Ruida took Mr. Hu and Mr. He in the workshop for more than an hour and looked at every production link of the 7nm chip production line before ending the visit. At noon, Qiao Ruida was the host and invited Mr. Hu and Mr. He to have a meal at the Xintiandi Hotel. Academician Wang is too old to eat greasy food or drink alcohol, so he did not participate in the dinner. Instead, he sent his apprentice Zhou Wanda to accompany him. It can be seen that Academician Wang is very good to Zhou Wanda, a student, and he will help him whenever he has the opportunity, which has a sense of passing on the mantle.

After the four of them finished their meal, when they returned to Rockchip, the factory director Luo Yuankai was also seeing off a group of reporters and media people. Of course, it was also necessary for each person to send a share of travel expenses. This has almost become an unspoken rule in the industry. When reporters are invited to attend a press conference, most companies will give them a travel fee. Thank God for not asking these uncrowned kings to praise their products or say weird things.

After sending away Mr. Luo, Mr. He, and several leaders of Decheng City, Rockchip Technology returned to its usual busy schedule. As more and more 28nm chip production lines are put into production, Jiuzhou No. 7 chips are being produced continuously, completely solving the core shortage problem of Reda Technology. The stock of Reda's second-generation mobile phones is increasing rapidly. And the 3nm chip production line, which has high hopes, is still trial-producing memory chips and constantly optimizing and adjusting equipment parameters to improve the yield rate. However, the type of memory produced has changed from the DDR3 memory chips used in computers to the LPDDR chips used in mobile phones and graphics cards. The latter has a higher default frequency, faster speed, and larger capacity. It is very suitable for installation on the second-generation Ruida mobile phone. No matter how much is produced, it will not be wasted.

Of course, these are things that factory director Luo Yuankai and chief engineer Lin Mengsong need to worry about. As for Qiao Ruida, she has returned to her family again. Every day she either accompanies her father to look after the store or goes shopping with her mother. She lives a comfortable life. It wasn't until June, when the second semester of her sophomore year was coming to an end and exam week was coming, that Qiao Ruida had to leave Decheng City and return to Peking University to prepare for taking the final tests of various subjects.

Qiao Ruida returned to Peking University to prepare for the exam. Of course, the happiest thing was her girlfriend Du Qingqing, who said they were newlyweds. Counting from the May Day holiday, the two of them have been separated for a month, so naturally they are particularly obsessed with meeting again. During the day, Du Qingqing accompanied Qiao Ruida to self-study, reviewing homework and preparing for the exam. At night, the young couple drove back to the courtyard house in Shijia Hutong to live a two-person world, which was really enviable to all the singles in the dormitory.

On Saturday, Qiao Ruida made a rare trip to Ruida Technology Company to deal with the backlog of documents these days, and held a meeting to listen to the work reports of the company's department managers. At the meeting, the first person to stand up and speak was R&D Manager Xiao Jingsheng. After continuous recruitment and poaching, the number of employees in the R&D department has exceeded 10,000. As the largest department of Reda Technology Company, it is reasonable for Xiao Jingsheng to be the first to speak.

"Mr. Qiao, our R&D department has initially completed the code writing of the EDA software and is doing the final integration and testing. The first version of the beta version of the EDA software will be available next week. In addition, we have spent the past month , and also completed the research and development of the Reda tablet computer, as well as the supporting Bluetooth keyboard and stylus. After our internal testing, the effect is very good, not inferior to Apple’s third-generation IPAD.”

After listening to Xiao Jingsheng's report, Qiao Ruida said with appreciation: "Oh, the EDA and tablet computers have been developed. You have done a good job. At the Rockchip wafer factory, the 7nm chip production line using EUV lithography machines has been installed. Now, we are just waiting for the rice to be ready. The current mainstream EDA software has not yet supported the design of 7nm process chips. The EDA software you developed comes at the right time. By the way, after the test version of the EDA software is completed, remember to give Loongson and HiSilicon will send one copy each. When I attended the launch conference of the Rockchip wafer fab in Decheng City, I met Mr. Hu from Loongson and Mr. He from HiSilicon and promised them to support them in the development of 7nm chips. Research and development. These two companies have profound chip design skills. If we hand over our EDA software to them, we can get a lot of usage feedback, which is very beneficial for us to further optimize the EDA software."

"Okay, Mr. Qiao, when we get the beta version of the EDA software and complete the integration, I will send a copy to HiSilicon and Loongson as soon as possible. By the way, Mr. Qiao, our EDA software has not been officially named yet. You What's the name?" Ruida Technology develops EDA software more for its own use. It has no intention of making money on it. Now it is given to HiSilicon and Loongson for free. Xiao Jamsheng doesn't feel too distressed. .

Qiao Ruida pondered for a moment and said: "Since it is a software used to design chips, let's call it Jiuzhang EDA."

Jamel Xiao gave a thumbs up and praised: "Jiuzhang EDA, this name is really good, simple and easy to remember, with profound meaning. Mr. Qiao is still smart, and the name he came up with is better than the names prepared by our R&D department. "

Hearing Jamel Xiao's lame compliment, Qiao Ruida couldn't help but rolled her eyes, waved her hand casually, and said: "Okay, this name is just a casual comment from me, where does it come from so many words? Next, sales Manager Shu from the department, it’s your turn.”

Sales manager Shu Yutong stood up and reported: "Boss, in the past May, our sales department opened 107 new Reda Homes, covering all offline stores of Reda mobile phones across the country. and above cities. In addition, we have also opened up sales channels in several major European countries and found very powerful local agents. In the capitals of these countries, we have opened exclusive stores for Reda mobile phones, which can sell mobile phones. , and can also provide after-sales service. However, our first-generation Reda mobile phones have been discontinued for a long time, and the second-generation Reda mobile phones have been unable to be launched due to insufficient stock. Therefore, these newly opened channels now have no mobile phones to sell at all. Selling some mobile phone accessories and doing some after-sales maintenance work for mobile phones, the people below have great opinions. Boss, I wonder when our second-generation Ruida mobile phone will be available for sale?" (End of Chapter)
