Chapter 73 First Meeting with Academician Wang

"It has been submitted for registration, and it has just entered the public notice period. It will take some time to get the patent certificate. In addition, I have also written a paper, which has not been sent out yet."

"It's really incredible that you started writing papers when you were only a freshman. Thinking about when I was in school, I published my first paper when I was a freshman, and it seemed to be in the first semester of my senior year. This is really infuriating."

The two of them were looking at the design drawings and discussing. The whole morning had passed. Zhou Wanda took Qiao Ruida to the school cafeteria and treated him to a meal.Compared with Peking University Yanyuan Campus, the food in the cafeteria of Daxing Campus here seems to taste better, and Qiao Ruida was very happy to eat.

"Are you ready for the tape-out fee? If you are, come with me to see Academician Wang in the afternoon. He is the head of the integrated circuit laboratory. As long as he nods, we can start making masks this afternoon. Tomorrow Then we can go to the production line for tape-out and trial production.”

The chip production process is very complicated, with hundreds of processing steps, but making the mask must be the first priority.Making a mask requires a set of special equipment and a group of professional personnel to operate it.The integrated circuit laboratory where Zhou Wanda works is at the national level, with complete equipment and a pool of talents. They have the production capacity to produce masks, so they don't have to travel around.

"The company I started is developing quite well. These millions of tape-out fees can be used at any time. When the time comes, it can be transferred from company to company."

"That's no problem. Hurry up and eat. After dinner, I will take you to see Academician Wang."

After lunch, the two returned to the laboratory building. Zhou Wanda took Qiao Ruida to Academician Wang's office on the fifth floor, but found nothing. The office door was closed, and no one responded after knocking for a long time.

"Hey, Academician Wang is not here. Do you want to call and ask?" Seeing this situation, Qiao Ruida asked.

"No, Academician Wang has no classes today and is not in the office. He is just over there at the chip R&D center or production line. We can just go there one by one."

After that, Zhou Wanda took Qiao Ruida and continued upstairs, and finally found Academician Wang Chengye in the chip research and development center on the seventh floor.At this time, Academician Wang was sitting in front of a computer, operating the keyboard and mouse while explaining something.There was a large circle of people standing around, including men, women, old and young.They all held their breath and listened attentively.In the R&D center of several hundred square meters, only Academician Wang's voice echoed.Seeing this situation, Qiao Ruida and Zhou Wanda didn't want to disturb them, so as not to offend the public, they had to stand behind the crowd and wait patiently.

While waiting, Qiao Ruida also listened. Academician Wang seemed to be explaining the architecture and design points of an embedded neural network processor (NPU).This part of the knowledge is very profound and obscure, and even Qiao Ruida, who is well-read, sounds very strenuous.Of course, this was also because he arrived halfway and didn't listen to it from the beginning.After half an hour, Academician Wang's explanation came to an end, and everyone surrounding him dispersed, returned to their respective workstations, and continued the work at hand.Academician Wang pushed up the keyboard tray, stood up, stretched, turned around, and then saw Zhou Wanda and Qiao Ruida.

"Hey, Zhou Wanda, you guy is not writing your thesis in the office, so why are you here at the R&D center? And who is this kid?"

Just now she was standing behind the crowd, hearing only his voice but not seeing anyone. It was only then that Qiao Ruida saw Academician Wang's appearance.The old man is about 1.8 meters tall, with white hair standing straight on his head. His face is ruddy and energetic. There are deep wrinkles on his forehead and at the corners of his eyes. His eyes are particularly deep and lively.He was wearing a set of light blue overalls and a pair of black cloth shoes on his feet, very simple and plain.

"Teacher, let me introduce to you. This is Qiao Ruida, a freshman student in our college. He has designed an audio decoding chip and plans to conduct tape-out testing on our chip production line. I brought him here just to This matter. Qiao Ruida, this is the Academician Wang I just told you, the head of the chip laboratory and my mentor during my master's degree."

Zhou Wanda stood up, introduced both parties, and explained the purpose of his visit.It was also the first time that Qiao Ruida knew that there was a master-apprentice relationship between Zhou Wanda and Academician Wang. No wonder he would return to Peking University as an associate professor after studying abroad and getting a doctorate.

"Hello, Academician Wang. When I applied for my application after the college entrance examination and searched for information about the School of Microelectronics of Peking University, I saw your name. It can be said that I have admired your name for a long time." Qiao Ruida bowed and saluted, showing such respect for such a highly respected and skilled person. Academician-level expert, Qiao Ruida respects him from the bottom of his heart.

Academician Wang looked Qiao Ruida up and down and said with great interest: "You are Qiao Ruida, the new top scorer in the college entrance examination in our School of Microelectronics this year. Not bad, not bad. He is indeed a genius. He has just started designing chips in his freshman year. It's amazing. , Amazing. Have you brought the chip design drawing? Show it to me."

Academician Wang had actually heard of his name, and Qiao Ruida was really flattered.In fact, what Qiao Ruida didn't know was that in addition to being keen on integrated circuit research, Academician Wang also had a hobby, which was to be a teacher.Not only does he serve as a doctoral tutor and master's tutor, he has taught more than a dozen students, and he also runs an elective course for undergraduates in the college. He is one of the few academicians in the school who is still active in teaching. .

Academician Wang has a good reputation for the good students in the School of Microelectronics. As long as these top undergraduates have the intention to take the postgraduate entrance examination, he will find ways to recruit these students.It is precisely this hobby of being a teacher, coupled with decades of persistence, that has made Academician Wang famous all over the world.Many early students have grown into mainstays in the domestic integrated circuit field after years of hard work.

As one of the few top scorers in the college entrance examination in the School of Software and Microelectronics, Qiao Ruida was on Academician Wang's watch list as soon as she entered the school.It's just that Qiao Ruida has just entered his freshman year, the professional courses have not yet started, and he is far away from the postgraduate entrance examination. It is not yet known how talented he is in integrated circuit design, so he has not contacted him in advance.Now Qiao Ruida actually came to the door and came to conduct chip tape-out, which surprised Academician Wang.You must know that Qiao Ruida has only entered Peking University for less than a semester, and she has taught herself a large number of professional courses and begun to design chips independently. It is obvious that her talent is incredible.Academician Wang's eyes when looking at Qiao Ruida are extremely hot, like a collector seeing a treasure handed down from ancient times.
