Super Copy of Great Power Technology

A week later, the Reda Technology R&D Department began to move from Hailong Building and several nearby office buildings to the newly built Reda Headquarters R&D Center Building. It is relatively simple for employees to relocate. They can just take a rented bus or drive a private car to the newly built R&D center building. Employees can also take their personal belongings with them. Relocation of some office equipment, such as computers, printers, fax machines, etc., is a lot of trouble. Logistics department personnel are required to dismantle it, load it into trucks, transport it to the R&D center building, and then assemble it again. Due to too much equipment and limited personnel and vehicles, it would take at least a dozen trips back and forth to complete the move.

On the day of the move, company executives such as Qiao Ruida, Du Qingqing, and Liu Jiayu also followed everyone in the R&D department and visited the R&D center building. The huge office space, brand-new decoration, office desks and chairs, specially arranged fitness area, carefully planned internal layout, especially the office area of ​​more than seven square meters per person, are really enviable.

"The office environment here in the R&D center building is really great. Each work station occupies at least 5 square meters, and there are also employees' exclusive rest areas, game areas, and fitness areas. It's really luxurious." Sales Manager Shu Yu Tong Buwu said with envy.

"Yes, such a good office environment is really enviable. I want to move here to work." Du Qingqing also agreed.

"Hey, it's just so-so. Don't be too busy envying our R&D department. The network building has been capped and the decoration work will be completed in a few days. By then, Reda Network Company will also move there, and they will have more people. There are fewer, higher floors, and the average office area is larger." When Xiao Jingsheng, manager of the R&D department, saw that the situation was not good and the R&D department was going to be the target of public criticism, he quickly diverted the trouble to the east and brought over the independent Reda Network Company to share the firepower. .

"Old Xiao, you are not interesting enough. Ruida Network Company has gone out independently. That network building was built for them. Even if we are envious, it has nothing to do with it. How about this, Lao Xiao, tonight If you pay a small sum of money and give us a meal, we can treat it as a celebration of the relocation of your R&D department." Shen Baiwei, the manager of the finance department, continued to squeeze Xiao Jingsheng and clamored for him to treat him.

"That's right, the people in your R&D department have taken all the benefits. As a manager, shouldn't you be bleeding?" Shu Yutong also followed suit.

"Yes, Lao Xiao, you have to pay for this meal tonight. We don't ask for going to a too high-end place. Let's go to Dadong to eat roast duck. When I first came here, I seemed to see a Dadong roast duck restaurant on the roadside. Branch." Dong Yingxiu, the manager of the publicity department, was not to be outdone, and even chose the food and location for dinner.

"Okay, okay, I'll treat you to Da Dong for roast duck tonight. We executives will all be rewarded by the time. It's best to bring along those with family members." Seeing that there was no way to avoid this housewarming banquet, Xiao Jing Sheng was a bachelor, so he readily agreed. There are only a dozen executives in Reda Technology Company, and including their families, there are no more than thirty people. Even if they all eat roast duck, how much money can they eat? Thousands of dollars are a lot of money. This amount of money is just a small amount of money for Xiao Jingsheng, who has an annual salary of 200 million and no bonuses.

After looking at the office area, Jamel Xiao took everyone into the chip laboratory for a fresh look. In the chip laboratory, there is a full set of chip production, testing, packaging equipment, and even an EUV lithography machine. Compared with the production lines in wafer foundries, the chip production lines here have smaller production capacity, simpler steps, and the processable wafer size is also limited to eight inches. The rest are not much different. The chips designed by the R&D department can be taped out and tested here, which can save a lot of time. The laboratory also has several sets of the most advanced scanning electron microscopes, which can be used for chip reverse cracking and failure analysis.

Qiao Ruida and his team put on dust-free clothes and entered the chip laboratory. Some researchers were adjusting equipment and preparing materials in the laboratory. Looking at the rack type, this is to conduct trial production and test the quality of this set of chip production equipment.

"Manager Xiao, is your R&D department going to produce chips? Have you prepared the masks, 28nm or 7nm?" Qiao Ruida asked curiously.

"We have this plan. Those of us who are engaged in chip design can't help but be excited when we see such advanced photolithography machines and chip production equipment. We want to open this production line and produce a few chips to try the effect. At the beginning of the test, we plan to produce some 28nm chips to practice our skills. 7nm chips are too advanced, and I estimate that we, the second-hand knives, will not be able to handle them in a short time. The mask used for this test production is the same as the last tape-out It was left behind when testing the Bluetooth chip." Jamel Xiao told the truth, but what he said was too professional, and not many executives on site could understand it.

"It's good to do this. They say practice brings true knowledge. Those of us who are engaged in chip design must not only know what is happening, but also why it is happening. There is no harm in knowing more about chip production. You can go and test production with confidence. No need to If you are worried about damaging the equipment, if you have a problem, you can directly come to Lin Mengsong, the chief engineer of Rockchip Wafer Factory, for consultation. If you can't solve it, you can come to me." Qiao Ruida patted Jamming Xiao on the shoulder and encouraged.

"Thank you to the boss for your strong support. There are some very complex equipment that we really don't have much confidence in. Especially the photolithography machine, which needs to adjust too many parameters and is too expensive. When we operate it, it is very difficult." I was afraid of damaging the equipment, so I didn't dare to do anything. Now that you have said this, Mr. Qiao, I feel more at ease and can let go and do something big."

In the next half hour, Qiao Ruida personally started debugging the equipment and gave Xiao Jingsheng and his colleagues in the R&D department a lot of pointers. These chip production equipment were originally copied by Qiao Ruida, and she knew the details very well. After some demonstrations and explanations, Xiao Jingsheng and the researchers on site gained a lot and felt like they had a sudden enlightenment.

After leaving the chip laboratory, Qiao Ruida and his team visited the mobile communications laboratory. Here, everyone has seen many brands of wireless base station equipment, including 2G, 3G, and even 4G. There are also various signal interference and signal attenuation equipment and facilities that can be used to detect the signal conditions of mobile phones under various circumstances and perform targeted optimization.

"When I was in Hailong Building, I wanted to build our own mobile communications laboratory to develop mobile phone baseband chips. But we always suffered from lack of space, and there was nowhere to place the equipment I bought. (End of Chapter)
